A farewell gift from A. P. F. Chapman, the English cricket captain, to W. Cunningham, the Sydenham and New Zealand bowler, was the wreath of hops which figures in this photograph. Chapman, whose business is brewing, and who plays for Kent, the hop county, had written on the accompanying card: “Knowing that hops are your favourite flower, I am sending you this wreath as a little memento.” Standing beside Cunningham is K, C. James, the Dominion wicket-keeper. —Topical Photo.
