“LORD HAWKE’S LOSS”
REFUSAL TO ATTEND FIRST TEST WITH EX-PROFESSIONAL AS CAPTAIN (Recd This Day, 12.50 p.m.) LONDON, June 6. The “Daily Telegraph” understands Lord who, before the English captain was selected had accepted Nottinghamshire’s invitation to attend the first test, has returned his complimentary ticket, having said he hoped he would not live to see an England eleven captained by a professional.
The “Telegraph" adds: “It would seem, therefore, that he feels the same inveterate repugnance to the sight of an ex-professional leading England into the field. One' is left wondering why it should hurt so much. However, the loss will be Lord Hawke’s.”
