Sussex have the talent to overcome the rather slow start they have made so far in the League. Players of the calibre of John Snow, Ted Dexter and Tony Greig guarantee entertainment.
Glamorgan, in last season's final match, defeated Lancashire and in so doing robbed them of the Championship. This year too they have the ability to make their presence felt.

'I continue non-stop because I am happy at sea and perhaps because I want to save my soul'-this cryptic explanation was Bernard Moitessier's when he dropped out of the first round-the-world, non-stop yacht race in 1969. The reasons behind his strange 'compulsion' can easily be interpreted as ' sea-fever.' But Moitessier's own account of his voyage reveals that there is much more to the psychology of long-distance sailing than we might at first imagine.

A series of 13 programmes

It is not known for sure who sculpted the head of 'the most beautiful woman in the world' - Nefertiti. Artists rarely signed their work and were considered primarily as craftsmen-they were often shown alongside potters, metal workers, goldsmiths and other artisans.
They appear to have worked an eight-hour day, with a rest on the 10th day. They were paid in kind and when the rations did not arrive, downed tools. The first recorded strikes in history?
