Announcement at beginning of first broadcast at 7.45 a.m.

We are now going to broadcast a description of the third Test Match between England and
Australia at Adelaide, through the courtesy of the manufacturers of Gillette razors and blades.

Here is one piece of information about Gillette razors and blades that will interest
our listeners. The Gillette factory in London is now supplying all the Gillette slotted
blades sold in the Eastern hemisphere, that is all the world, except North and South
America, is supplied with Gillette blades made by British labour and machinery built in
England, a tribute to British engineering capacity.

If you have not tried the new slotted Gillette blade, buy a packet today and prove to
yourself that it gives a keener shave and lasts longer than any blade you have previously
tried. Make sure you ask for the slotted Gillette blades which fit all types of Gillette
razors.

This morning Paynter carried on his valuable overnight innings and continued to bat
very steadily against some accurate bowling,

Verity kept his end up with a strong defense and a straight bat. Paynter's individual
50 went up after 118 minutes batting and included six fours. Verity was missed by Ironmonger
at second slip off O'Reilly when 16. Paynter sent up the 50 for the partnership in 75 minutes
with a leg hit for 4 off O'Reilly. Verity was becoming more aggressive and got a red 4 from
a square cut off Grimmett, whilst Paynter took 2 fours off the same bowler and sent up the
300 in 370 minutes of batting. Lunch was taken with the score at 315 for 7 wickets, Paynter
being 72 and Verity 35. After lunch runs came slowly and before he could get settled down
again Paynter was caught on the leg side in trying to pull a rising ball. He batted 185
minutes for his 77 runs, which included 9 fours. Verity was caught at square leg shortly
afterwards and Voce being bowled by Wall for 8 the innings closed at 12 minutes past three
for a total of 341. Considering that the first 4 wickets fell for 36, this is a particularly
satisfactory total and reflects great credit on the later English batsmen. The full scores
