Bill Lawry was first noticed playing cricket for Victoria using the now common technique of holding the bat by one's nose. In his younger days, he had a rare condition known as 'proboscitis', or 'pinocchio's curse,' meaning he has an abnormally large nose. So Bill was pretty popular with the selectors, and was eventually called up to the Australian Test Team, where he made large numbers of runs.
