IT must be many years since a Test Match has been anticipated with such interest and, on the part of England's supporters, with such hope as the one between Australia and England which starts, weather permitting, at The Oval in London today. The cricketing issues have been debated endlessly and will not be determined until the winning run is scored or the final wicket taken. But there is another matter of more than passing interest that has to be settled this morning even before the coin is tossed to decide who will bat first. This is, simply, whether or not a new national anthem for England will be born at the Oval during the next few days.
