Cricket 1904

J u l y 21, 1904 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 283 contemporaries on Tuesday to the effect that the bowling of Nice was unfair on the previous day. Unhappily such suggestions often do a vast amount of harm, although they are made in good faith. But it may be mentioned that the two umpires, Titchmarsh and J. E. West, have both said that they have not the smallest doubt about the fairness of Nice’s action. ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. E. W ood , D evon , Pa , U.S.A.— (a) Richard Daft, first as amateur and then as professional, and E. J. Diver vice vtrsd. (b) Tom Lockyer (Sur­ rey), J McC. Blackham (Australia), R. Pilling (Lancashire), Alfred Lyttelton (Cambridge Uni­ versity), H. Strudwick (Surrey) and A. A. Lilley (Warwickshire). CRICKET CRIMINALS. [The fielding was atrocious . . The play was foolish, indeed criminal . . . &c., &c.— Any day’s cricket report.] A man there is, butt of his fellow’s scorn, Unfit for anything except a gaol; To dark disgrace and deep dishonour born, And placed by vice beyond Redemption’s pale; It is the wretch, who in a county match, Degrades his manhood by a foozled catch ! There is a criminal of deeper hue— The man who, blest with energy and will, Goes careless in, when everything is blue, And victory depends upon his skill— Who lashes out as if from worry free, And gives a silly chance of “ c. and b.” There is a scoundrel who is dead to shame, Fit subject for the gallows or the rack; Inured to obloquy, he laughs at blame, And turns to good advice a heedless back : It is the bowler throwing games away By sending stuff that anyone could play. To purge our world we need some drastic Act, With penalties to fit each cricket crime ; Our laws are mild, effiminate, in fact, And puling-tender is the mealy time ! And so, by way of fillip to the rest, These are some penalties I would suggest. For getting out, a fine of twenty pounds ; For missing catches, fifty or the lash ; For bowling badly on imperfect grounds A week’s imprisonment, not saved by cash ; For losing matches, inexcusod by weather, The whole eleven should be hanged together. —Daily Chronicle.
