Praprut pressure on Foldvari

Arvind Savurthe media has splashed all possible information and numerous photographs of the greatest ever cricketer Australia has ever produced, Sir Donald Bradman, on his 90th birthday on Thursday.

Walter Lindrum, who attained and achieved sporting dominance, was another hero, who collected millions of dollars for helping the wounded and donated huge sums to charity. A befitting grave in the form of a billiard table has virtually become a monument in the Melbourne cemetery, is visited by sports loving persons, who admired him and still worship him as a hero.

Ignorant Australian media: The ongoing World Championship tournament is to commemorate the birth centenary of Walter Lindrum, the green baize legend. Yet, in this same country where both were born and flourished during the depression years 8212; and none can compare their individual achievements as each was unique in his chosen field of activity there is not a single line in any paper8217;s sport pages about the event. Nor has there been any mention of this on the sports channels of the television networks here. The absolute lack of publicity for such a major tournament in Lindrum8217;s own country in his centenary year is shocking, considering his mortal remains rest within a few minutes from this venue!
