Larwood complains that ha was not even met on arrival in India, and that ever since he has been sent from pillar .to post. "I was given my railway ticket by a servant," he says, "and on my way to the Punjab was marooned all night on Ambala station, where I had no bedding, and it was bitterly cold. "I then found I had no pupils to coach. The provincial -cricket association could not afford to pay for a coach, and hence I was foisted on the Maharaja of Patiala. "He already had the servicGs of two Anstralian professionals, and thus my position became nntenable."
