8 THE GUARDIAN Saturday August 28 1965 SPORTS REPORT CRICKET England advantage thrown away by unimpressive batting ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL Blackpool outwitted by Tottenham Greaves well on target By ALBERT BARHAM Tottenham H. 4, Blackpool 9 Four goals a match is a dive by Charnley, attempting to nrpttv fair awraee thouril head a low centre befire L- pretty fair average, tnougn BrQWl crushed bKi1Xl from Tottenham Hotspur usually do his body. What few chances well for themselves at White Tottenham had they used wisely and profitably. Blackpool Hart Lane and especially defence seemed somewhat against Blackpool. Last night bemused by the cunningly Blackpool were outwitted by a flighted corners taken by most competent display, which Greaves.

In the thirty-first minute surely must be reflected by another of these corners wa Tottenham away from home turned into a goal by Gilzeaji. to, with some assistance from L. tnis season. Brown. Seconds before half One of the intriguing questions time Greaves had his reward, a of the season is, of course, goal from one of the now familiar whether Mackay's presence and shuffles, which leaves a defence flair can drive Tottenham once lurching the wrong way, and a more to the verge of great things, sh0t which is unstoppable, even though they could do with strengthening in some positions.

Chance taken Last night they fielded two of the Parfitt alone sees the value of using his feet By DENYS ROWBOTHAM England batted depre'ssingly badly in the final Test match at The Oval yesterday. Higg.s and Statham, supported by some excellent catching, completed South Africa's dismissal for 208 by taking thuir last live wickets for 56 runs in under 105 minutes. Yet in eight minutes over four hours England not only mustered a mere 142, Lut lost six wickets in doing so. That for 90 minutes, bridged by tea, South Africa should bowl mostly a defensive width was as inexplicable as it was miserable. Thankfully there was some sustained purpose about the cricket before lunch.

If the youngsters felt as they looked, a little overawed. the old masters soon gave them confidence, though Pitt missed an onr-n ffnnl in fhp first half Nnt open goal in the first half. Not that it mattered, for Tottenham were leading comfortably enough.

The lazy grace of Gilzean and the mercurial bursts from Greaves soon began to worry Blackpool. Fine goal From a corner in the tenth ham took the lead. The ball went straight to the foot of Clayton, standing outside the penalty area, and his shot flashed into the net before a defender had time to move. There was plenty admire in the quiet, methodical way Black- pool strove for retribution, with taeveny buuuurunK Oates down the wing, and Fisher and McPhee working industriously in midfield. But the chances did not come their way.

Omln 9 23cc minutes, during which England advanced furtively to 42. Untypically, Barber was as strokeless and as tentative as his partner. He greeted the afternoon sunshine with a dcfleclion wiiited eicgantiy 0ff Pollock. When he wa, ollt at 7B lmmediately after tea stumped when he probed forward vainly to McKinnon, his onIy other powerful, positive shot had been arl off Dumbrill. Cowdrey was un- defeated at the close, but for two and three-quarter hours was no more convincing.

He achieved only one lordly force, and it took a slow long hop. a full loss, and a fulsome half-vollev to produce his other three fours Much of England's best batting came from Parfitt, who in 65 minutes put on 49 with Cowdrey. He. at least, played forward vnth confidence, hit the ball with some show of strength and just before his dismissal well caught and bow'ed by McKmnOP from the rebound of an on.drlve stralght to Van der Merwe at short leg had threatened to hit McKinnon over his half-deep fields. This was determined.

commonsense batting with a hint of creative footwork to come. Mysterious bowling Footwork, and the judgment which informs it, was what the rest of England's batting lamen- tably lacked. Repeatedly Barber pushed forward without reaching the pitch of outswingers from Pollock and Botten, and when 24 he should have been caught from a sliced drive at gully, Cowdrey, hands now curiously wide apart on the bat handle and too prone to play on the walk, could not find the power to hit a half-volley when he reached one. Why, within this sickly, groping context, Dumbrill chose to bowl wide for 35 minutes before tea, and Barlow and P. M.

Pollock for all but an hour afterwards, was another of this sepulchral day's mysteries. With Parfitt's going, McKinnon, Botlen, and Pollock did attack with a will to the close. Their more positive methods brought them the wickets of Smith, leg before when attempting to turn Pollock, and Brown, caught at slip off McKinnon. Smith had pottered 40 minutes for seven. Brown, at least, was mercifully brief.

South Africa's bowling had looked neither so exacting nor so accurate as England's. The Pitch still looked easy paced and eminently trustworthy. Ene. land's batting simply lacked 7est, will, and judgment. It may well have cost them the match.

tne pitcn siigmiy ana Dotn Higgs and Statham were able to move the ball more than on the first day. The same admirable length and direction which had characterised their previous bowling did the rest. Van der Merwe was beautifully caught right-handed by Barrington at second slip from only the second ball which Higgs delivered. Thereafter, had Smith nnt wisely restpd the Lancashire bowlers before taking the new ball, South Africa might not have enjoyed even temSorarv renrieve even temporary itpni.t Most of this period of about 40 minutes was distinguished by some fine driving, forcing, and cutting by Lance, who reached his 50 in just over two and a half hours during Higgs first over with the new ball. Brown ovcrpitehing he particularly relished, dispatching them Mraigiii aim wiub 01 miu-iiu mui a free, upright, lissom pride of carriage that was wholly delight ful to see.

Anything short he forced powerfully towards point, and even Higgs felt his lash before he and South Africa were finished. Fine catch Save for Lance, South Africa's resistance crumbled with the tak- tne nf the new ball a 181 An ing of the new Dan a. An erratic second over which cost Higgs eight runs may or may not have excited Dumbrill's anibi- tions. He essayed a turned shot to an inswinger, achieved only a snick to his left pad, and Smith took an excellent diving catch left-handed from short leg. In under half an hour the innings was over.

Botten edged a slash to Statham and was well caught by Cowdrey at first slip. Statham bowled P. M. Pollock, who played forward, neck and crop. Lance played back and was left just as helpless.

Statham's last wicket was his 250th in Test cricket. Two more will bring him 2,000 for his first-class career. Never has he bowled better at The Oval, and it was cause for Lancashire pride that England waited for Higgs to leave the field with him. Nothing so incisive as the bowl- lng of this pair was seen from England for the rest of the day. In three minutes, indeed, Russell Derby dim Glamorgan's hopes By Christopher Ford Derbyshire, as they needed to for their own good and surely for the reputation of the championship, set Glamorgan an almost insoluble problem at Cardiff Arms Park.

Glamorgan were required to get 203 in 147 minutes on a wicket giving a certain amount of lift and turn they were bowled out for 111 in 104 minutes, and Derbyshire won by ai runs. Glamorgan cannot now win the championship outright. Their hope of sharing it with Northamptonshire, moreover, rests on the most slender thread, for they would need to win their remaining tuo games against Surrey Swansea and Essex at Llanelly week and Worcestershire would have to be held at Hove. There was remorseless logic about the Glamorgan innings, for those who attacked, no matlcr how bravely, were living on borrowed time. Lewis and Slade, for instance, tnod to drhc Rhodes on the half volley and simply skied the lifting ball.

In spite of the warmth, o.er-night ram had loll the wicket et enough for the start to be delayed by 30 minutes, and there was no help for bowlers when Dorbshirc began at (10 for one, 112 ahead Johnson used his feet to drne Shepherd too rare a sisht in this or any other match and took his sland with llaney to 8fi in 100 minutes. Shepherd wenl on for treatment to an achilles tendon, and with Prcssdee also aw.iv Made Murk nobly to the spinners' task. The odd ball began to lift and turn, and apart from a pulled si by Oales off Slade there was lillle aggression until after lunch, when 20 were added in 12 minutes. Only then, at 150 for scen, did Morgan feel the moment had come for the difficult declaration he had to make. lllRllisllllU Svnmcl Inning Snrtri lb suh Wfci.ii'ey -l It I J'jhnsou s'adt I'flUc rm! out 22 Oa'n I Jnv, 1, li M'--17 I I J-jnri II It S'af.

Carter (Nelson), a muscultr, stocky 22-year-old international, won the men's springboard title in the British diving championships at Crystal Palace yesterday with 135.967 points.

D. Young, of the same club, who won the title last year, was fourth With 128.55 points. Like Young, Carter lackt the grace of movement, tapered physique, suppleness, and good line in Sight of the divers of the Highgate Club, who finished second and third. Only Are points separated Carter from two 21-ycac--old internationals, A. Roberts, who was second with 130.917 points, and B.

E. Phelps, third with 130.617 points. Overseas Judges would probably have given more marks to the Highgate pah, but this ought not to sUnd in the way of Carter's getting a place In international matches. Surely one should either respect the judges' choice or change one's judges. This was Phelps's first competition since the 1964 Olympic Gaines.

He won the springboard title last in 1962, and has won the high-board, which he defends today, seven times. Phelps has had only three to four weeks' training for the championships since his marriage last month. Facilities are poor in Sunderland where he now lives, and he said because of thl he was quite pleased with his performance. Men'a Springboard. 1, P.

Today's football fixtures Kicks off 3 Dm unless stated otherwise One more victory needed By Henry Blofeld A remarkable transformation in the state of the wicket during the lunch interval yesterday at Bournemouth enabled Worcestershire to bowl out Hampshire for 31 in only 65 minutes and win by 115 runs.

This was Worcestershire's ninth success in 10 games and with Glamorgan failing at Cardiff, victory in their last match which starts today against Sussex at Hove will make them county champions for the second year in succession. There had been some heavy rain on the wicket overnight and during the morning rt was almost com- Sletely lifeless. Supporters of la morgan and Northamptonshire will no doubt argue that Hampshire presented Worcestershire with the ID points, but in the circumstances this is an unfair accusation. A captain's tactics should be dictated, not by the position of his opponents the championship table, out rather by bis own desire to win the match. Ingleby-Mackenzle declared as soon as Hampshire had saved the follow-on, knowing full well that Worcestershire would leave them a more than reasonable target the fourth innings as they themselves would need all the time they could get in which to take all the 10 wickets.

No one would deny that the final tweet was anything but reasonable in view of the earlier state of the wicket During lunch the skies cleared, however, and a hot sun shone down on a wicket which was in a short time to make Ingleby-Mackenzie's decision look foolish. The luck was with Worcestershire but if it had been with Marshall 140 would have been made to seem a very small target. As it was the sun made a crust on the wet surface of a wicket which was hard underneath, and for the 65 minutes of the innings Flavell and Coldwell were downright dangerous. The ball flew brutally oft a length and both were unplayable. Even tf Hampshire had not declared when they did it is still more than likely that Worcestershire would have won on this surface.

The circumstances of the game, must be added, were almost identical to those three weeks ago, when Northamptonshire, the present leaders, declared at 0 for 0 giving Essex 146 to win in 145 minutes at Claeton. Essex were bowled out for 88, giving Northants a crucial victory. WOttCESTXRSUIlU! Plm acj dec. G. A Headlejr 123 T.

Crothers, 'no "he silver medal in Tokio 11,0 most consistent and busiest 800 metres runner, led the counter-attack, leaving Boulter heavy and drooping in fifth place, The British team here seems to be haunted by dramatic disaster, Today Barry won his heat of the 200 metres in 21.3scc., quite the best he has done for a long time, but was disqualified for running out of his lane on the curve. Miss Parkin found her feet coming down in the wrong places, and she fouled three times in the long jump and did not compete with the last six.

Halifax, indeed, have a fine record against previous New Zealand touring teams whose only victory wis in 1947-8 when they won at Thrum Hall by 21-5.

Baskerville's pioneers of 1907-8 were beaten 94, and the visitors of 1928-7 lost 13-19. In 1951-2 Halifax won 18-12, in 1955-8 New Zealand failed by only a point (18-17), and In 1961-2 they defeated a joint HuoaersneiQ-tiamax sine 31-11. The New Zealanders have chosen a strong team for today's match and, if they can win a reasonable share of the ball from the scrums and their backs put it to good use, there should be a memorable game. One of the best of today's League games mav be that between Wlgan and Oldham, both of whom are unbeaten. Certainly both are capable, at their best, of playing excellent football and matches between them Invariably are exciting.

St Helens seem likely to be concerned in what promises to be one of the keenest struggles of the day. for thev visit Castleford. who Association FOURTH DIVISION Aldttshot v. Luton Town Barnsley Bradford City (3 151 Bradford v. Barrow Colchester Utd.
