BERLIN'S ATTITUDE TO THE SPAR CONDITIONS."
_Sunday Paper._
But, after all, Berlin does not seem to have taken them lying down.

"At the start he made most of his runs by clever strokes on the
leg side, but, once settled down, he drove with fin power."

Cricketers need to be amphibious in these days.

SONGS OF AN OVALITE.
There was a young man who said, "Hobbs
Should never be tempted with lobs;
He would knock them about
Till the bowlers gave out
And watered the pitch with their sobs."
There is no one so dreadful as Fender
For batmen whose bodies are tender;
He gets on their nerves
With his murderous swerves
That insist upon death or surrender.
When people try googlies on Sandham,
You can see he will soon understand 'em;
With a laugh at their slows
He will murmur, "Here goes,"
And over the railings will land 'em.
I am always attracted by Harrison
When arrayed in his batting caparison;
If others look worried
He never gets flurried,
But quite unconcernedly carries on.
