England Makes 215

TEST AT JOHANNESBURG HOLMES-S RUN A MINUTE By Cable.—Press Association. — Copyright. Reed. 12.45 p.m. CAPETOWN, Tuesday South Africa in its second innings had scored 55 runs for the loss of one wicket when stumps were drawn in the fourth Test match at Johannesburg to-night. England was all out in its second innings for 215. The wicket was fast. Holmes was scintillating and knocked up 50 in 59 minutes. He then gave a chance in * slips. The South African bowling was full of venom. Hammond and Wyatt were cautious before the excellent bowling. Stanyforth, just before the close, was struck on the face by a ball, and collapsed as he left the field. Details:
