W. ... 15 3 53 6 ... 14 1 53 4 In connection with cricket, as with the theatre, there is a strong tendency to look back upon the past through rose-coloured spectacles. Of this truism I was reminded on reading the interview with Lord Hawke on his fiftieth birthday. In the course of his remarks Lord Hawke said : “ We have not the great men of the old school. I look around and I ask myself, Where are the A. G. Steels, the Palairets, and Studds ? You will never see another W. G. Grace.” As regards W.G. everyone must agree. We cannot hope to see another—but for the rest Lord Hawke’ s statement is calculated to give young people not well versed in cricket history rather a false impression. I grant that there is no sign at present of a new A. G. Steel, but since Steel’s day we have had quite as great a cricketer in F. S. Jack­ son, and the Studds and Palairets together certainly would not outweigh the Fosters. Of the Studds only C. T. was an England player. G. B. and J. E. K. were not so good as many young amateurs of their own time and ours. L. C. H. Palairet was a fine bats­ man with a beautiful style, but in my humble opinion he was never so good as Spooner or Hutchings, and not to be compared with Fry or II. E. Foster. K. O. N. Palairet was, I think, nearly as good as his brother at school, but he fractured his knee-cap at football directly he got to Oxford and could not afterwards do himself full justice on the cricket field. Lord Hawke was on much firmer ground when he spoke of the altered conditions and the effect on cricket of the growing stress of work. If R. E. Foster, Spooner and Bosan- quet had been independent men, able every summer, like the Walkers years ago, to give up all their time to the game, amateur cricket to-day would have been vastly stronger than it is. Our deficiency in batting of the highest class has, of course, been much accentuated this season by the un­ expected withdrawal from the field of Fry. Lord Hawke ended his interview on a hope­ ful note, and, though far from optimistic by nature, I think there is good promise for the future. It is difficult to believe that the brilliant school cricketers of this year—with young F. H. Knott at the head of them— will not do something for us.—Mr. S. H. Pardon in The Sunday Times.
