play yesterday was sufficient for Yorkshire to beat Derbyshire by seven wickets at Chesterfield and so prevent the home county completing their first double over their opponents in 60 years Derbyshire added only 21 to their overnight-total Vaulkhard with 74 not out oaving played a fine captain's innings which forced Yorkshire to bat again Vaulkhard however was not always confident in his running between the wickets and hesitancy on his part led to Jackson dismissal Morgan who was clean bowled by Whitehead also narrowly avoided being run out from the previous ball For a short time Derbyshire had hopes of making Yorkshire fight for the 72 runs as Halliday and Lowson were sent back with only four runs scored This disastrous start was remedied by Lester who hit 42 and helped Yorkshire to put on 62 runs in- 35 mins Lester was caught at extra cover when six were wanted and the lefthander Wilson made the winning hit Overnight score Derbyshire 124 (g Lead-beater 3-40 A Coxon 3-41 Trueman

should be good enough to win the 220 yards low hurdles Similarly the MNwCPW rither way Tnlversity honorary coaches is that be has a man to win the jump The Cambridge president A Scott has a to chance of taking the half-mile against Hobert Mealey of Cornell Both are the speedy type ot half-miier and if Scott refuses to get rattled in the first lap he may find his experience of the track sufficient to carry him home the winner in spite of the Cornell -fast performances in the States The sprints and sprtot relays are always open but the home team puts faith Wilkinson of Oxford who has done 99 secs twice this season to beat Robert Hunt ihd Cornell captain to the 100 yards and furlong Anythtor may happen in the relay As always in these team contests a lot depends on Who draws flrtt blood in

Quertier it was a day when everything went her way Drives volleys and lobs all immaculately placed had Miss Manfredi completely at her mercy and the Italian girl secured only seven points to the first set TOUGH ASSIGNMENT Miss Quertier however has a tough assignment to the fourth round when she will oppose Mrs Margaret Dupont (USA) the No 2 seed Mrs Dupont although not at her she was inclined to be inaccurate with her volleys at the net comfortably beat Mrs Jean Walker-Smith the Hal 5- places 26 5- 56 Dally Double: Pharos Light I Light win dividend 5 18-: (397 winning tickets) CLUB GOLF RETURNS is tnu -w should win breaking a jog-trot which leads to most of our humiliation Have we reached the stage at which we can never again expect to be masters at any form of sport played the world over? It looks tike it Someone must always lose but if It is always to be England it is time we set about relearning (from one-time pupils) the art of intensifying our effort until we begin to give the rest of the world a match again If there are those who feel that no sport is worth working at in this way (and I suspect there are many) then we should fade gracefully from the international scene and concentrate on sport for sake We cannot have it both ways For a long time I have been convinced that it the United States fell in love with soccer they would revolutionise the game With them nothing is left to chance I can imagine them whatever other possess would vut of play: for wards who would score so consistently from the penalty spot such an award would be equivalent to conseding a goat which it certainly is not to our football Everyone appreciates how effective America is In every field of sport How few realise that success comes not through some mystic propensity for getting there in a tight squeeze but because Americans learn by the hour while we scarcely spare a minute to experiment and practice FULHAM ACTIVITY vCer 9ty yesterday transferred Lee their centre forward to for £18000 and signed Fulham another centre forward Arthur Rowley for £12050 Since last season ended less than two months ago Fulham nave been involved in transfer deals in which hayej paid fees totalling about £45000 and received sums amounting to some £41000 Their biggest signing was Bobby Brennan Irish international centre forward for whom they paid Birmingham £20000 Other buys were Macaulay (Arsenal) £10000 and the brothers Lowe (Aston Villa) £15000 Players allowed to go include Sid Thomas (Bristol City) for £9000 Gage Lewm Ayres and Jenkins (Gillingham) combined fee of £14000 Summers (Norwich) £6000: and now Rowley Lee regarded as one of the Lest leaders to the Second Division was the Leicester inside right in the 1949 Cup Final He is a clever ball playex and has a powerful shot Rowley a brother of Jack Rowley of Manchester United is a former Wolverhampton and West Bromwleh Player Powerfully built he joined Fulham from Albion two years ago and played a big part in their promotion season Lincoln City are now without a centre forward of any kind on their books Yesterday they lost their second leader in three days when Alf Burnett joined -the Lincolnshire police On Wednesday the Football League expelled Dodds for an alleged breach of League rules Burnett went to Lincoln from Barrow last year HE KNEW THEM ALL The death has occurred in hospital In Liverpool of Mr Dick (Ambleri Smith at one time one of the best-known figures in the golf trade and a well-known Hoylake sportsman Since his retirement some years ago he spent some part of every winter in South Africa He became ill on return from one of these trips weeks ago In his younger days a keen boxer Dick 'Smith was known and liked by ail the leading golf professionals including many of the Americans such as Hagen Sarazen and MacDonald Smith He played golf but little but his knowledge of the game and its top rankers was unrivalled For a man over seventy he served In one capacity or another in three he remained youthful looking and remarkably active The world of professional golf loses a friend and counsellor by his passing POINTS WIN FOR FITTON Well-earned Ray Fitton (Manchester) beat Danny (London) the British bantamweight champion on points alter an exciting ten rounds contest at Bst lOlbs at Belle Vue Manchester last night Fitton forced the pace from the early rounds despite a cut over his eye and it needed ail O'Sullivan's boxing skill to keep out of real trouble frequently scored with his left and showed good ringcraft against his fast opponent In fact it was not until the last round that Fitton effectively broke through O'Sullivan's defence and floored him three times The Manchester man who had never allowed the Londoner to dictate the fight scored a well-earned victory Lee Savold the world heavyweight champion had a three-rounds exhibition with Charles Henry (Croydon) Black Pico the fly and bantan ntamweight PRENTON LADY ASSOCIATES Summer Meeting Leading
