(Received this day at 1.80 p.m.) i LONDON, June 1

As fly fishers the Australians are as good as cricketers. Woodfull and Hornibrook were among 'those entertained to-day by the ■ ; ; Marylebone Committee at Southampton Main. Colonel C. Heiseltine, attired in waders) unsuccessfully tried for an hour and a. half to coax a trout to rise. Though the fish were plentiful they were only in a fair, state. This is their first attempt at oricket. However, they did not return empty handed, Mr Kelly carrying home a parcel ; containing his catch of trout, which the‘'hotel chef .is preparing for the Australian’s breakfast. A number of players this morning inspected the liner Leviathan, and this afternoon all were the guests of Lord Forster who was a. former Hampshire player, seeing Lipton’s new yacht, Shamrock V, through a telescope from' Lord ' Forster’s residence at Lepe.
