CLAIM OF UNSPORTMANLKE BOWLING NOT SUPPORTED CANCELLATION SUGGESTED
— By Telegraph — Copyrlght)
London, January 23. The Marylebone committee has cabled the Australian Board: "We, the Marylebone Club, deplore your cable and deprecate your opinion that there has been unsportsmanlike play. We have the fullest confidence in the captain and team managers and are convinced they would do nothing to infringe the laws of cricket or the spirit of the game. "We have no evidence that our confidence is misplaced. "Much as we regret the accidents to Woodfull and Oldfield, we understand that in neither case was the bowler to blame. j 'If the board wish to propose a new i law or rule it shall receive our care- , ful consideration in due course. We hope the situation is not now as serious as your cable. appears to indicate, but if it is such as to jeopardise the good relations of Englisn and Australian ericketers, and you consider it desirable to cancel the remainder of the programme we would consent with great reluctance."
