Norman Frank Callaway (5 April 1896 – 3 May 1917) was an Australian first class cricketer and Australian Imperial Force (AIF) soldier. Born in Hay, New South Wales to Thomas and Emily, Callaway moved to Sydney and played for Sydney grade cricket teams Paddington and Waverley. ==Club career== Callaway appeared for Paddington in Sydney Grade Cricket in 1913-14, playing alongside Monty Noble 〔( "Norman Callaway Story" ), Murrumbidgee Cricket Council (accessed 23 May 2011)〕 On his first appearance at the age of 17 years and 175 days, he top scored with 41 against Balmain, followed by 16 and 26 (top score again) against University and 137 not out with 24 boundaries against Middle Harbor. Sydney Morning Herald went on a stream of praise for the hundred, calling it "a splendid innings, entirely free from blemish", and about the "crispness and strength of his driving", "straight bat" and "splendid judgment" 〔"Colts play finely", Sydney Morning Herald, 22 Oct 1913. See a long description of the innings ( here ) (accessed 30 May 2011)〕 He scored 578 runs in the season for Paddington at an average of 41.28 and took three wickets.〔Sydney Morning Herald, ( 21 April 1913 ) (accessed 30 May 2011)〕 In January 1914, Callaway scored an impressive 129, and a duck in the second innings, in a New South Wales Colts v Victorian Colts match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.〔Argus, (26 Jan 1914 ) (accessed 30 May 2011)〕 At the beginning of the 1914-15 season, Callaway moved to Waverley where one of his team-mates was a young Alan Kippax. Callaway made his first class debut aged 18 for New South Wales against Queensland at the SCG in February 1915. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Norman Callaway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
