When the Worm Turns
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a classic and humorous rugby cartoon by the renowned British satirical artist H.M. Bateman, published in the Illustrated London News on June 16, 1928. In this charming and amusing image, a tearful rugby ball sits forlornly on the grass, surrounded by a group of puzzled and burly rugby players. The ball, with its expressive eyes and drooping mouth, seems to have had enough of being grappled, kicked, and passed around during the intense match. Its tears add a touch of pathos and humor to the scene, as the players look on in surprise and concern. Bateman's masterful use of line, shading, and facial expressions brings the ball to life, making it a relatable and endearing character. This timeless cartoon captures the spirit of the game and the unexpected twists and turns that can occur during a rugby match. The 1920s setting, with its period attire and outdoor setting, adds to the nostalgic and charming appeal of this humorous work of art. "When the Worm Turns" is a delightful reminder of the lighter side of sports and the humanizing effect of humor and creativity.
