CRICKET
DON BRADMAN. [Unitod Preas Association. —By Electrit Telegraph.—Copyright.] LONDON, October 27. The “Daily Telegraph,” admitting that Don Bradman will give a great fillip to Lancashire cricket says: No true sportsman wants to see cricketers bought and sold like merchandise or Soccer footballers. It points out that Bradman took a nowise blameworthy part in the negotiations. Actually, tfie villain of the piece, it says, has been the Board of Control in deducting £SO from Bradman’s hen us as the result of hjs journalistic activities in England. The Board’s officiousmss was perhaps mistaken:, hut it. would ho possible to sympathise with a body that was confronted by a slightly mutinous cricketer, who was hacked by his nation to the last adoring man, woman and child.
