The M.C.C. were moderately represented in batting, A. J. Webbe being unable to play owing to an injured hand, but in bowling, with Flowers, Parnham, Barnes and Robertson, they were by no means despicable. The Oxford captain played five men for their bowling merits only, so that 209 for the first innings was a very good total. Of the new men, Hine-Haycock and Ruggles-Brise showed greatly to advantage with the bat, while Page distinguished bimself with the bat and ball alike, and frequently brought down the gallery by his excellent field­ ing. Tristram, Bastard and Bolitho were engaged in the Schools, and were consequently unable to play. The University having won the toss, elected to bat on an excellent wicket, Shaw and Hine-Haycock facing the bowling of Flowers and Parnham. Both men batted steadily at first, but afterwards runs came freely, and the score was taken to sixty-six before Shaw was splendidly caught at point by Studd for an excellent thirty. Haycock con­ tinued to bat brilliantly, and after a long aud valuable stay retired for sixty-six made without a chance. Ruggles-Brise, though somewhat uncertain at lirst, hit brilliantly for forty-nine, and was out to a catch at point. Page carried his bat for eleven. The M.C.C. started badly, losing three wickets for eight runs. Then owing to an almost fatal mistake of Shaw’s at point Hamilton had a life, and after this with Flowers he hit in the most brilliant fashion, and the pair added 123 runs to the score before a separation was effected. Finally owing to a valuable and steady innings of Pember, who carried his bat for forty-nine,and thefine hitting of Flowers (70), Savory (30), the M.C.C. total was 249, or 100 in advance of their opponents. The ’Varsity second inning was noticeable for the brilliant form displayed by Walker, who hit in his old style for 63. Haycock made 21, and when seemingly well set was brilliantly caught by Ruggles-Brise,who was fielding as a substitute at long leg. Page played a steady and valuable innings of 25, again carrying his bat, and Hick­ ley contributed a useful 15. The M.C.C. had only 123 runs to get to win, but in the short interval that remained on Tuesday, no less than seven wickets w'ere disposed of for 57 runs, all the dangerous batsmen being got rid .of except Pember, who again carried his bat for 15. Robinson bowled three wickets, the other four falling to Peake. Rain put an end to further play and the match resulted in a draw in favour of Oxford. Pember should certainly have an excellent chance of being in the Eleven, his de­ fence was excellent and his hitting effective. Hine-Haycock appeared in brilliant form, and his totals of G6 and 21, coming so soon as they do after his 107 in the Perambulators and Etceteras match, render him almost certain of his Blue. Ruggles-Brise has showed up well, making 80 not out,in the Perambulators Match, and 49 and 1 against M.C.C. Page will be a most valuable man to the Eleven. He played two excellent not out innings of 11 and 25, and fielded well besides bowling with very fair success. Robinson has the best analysis at present. Hickley and Stewart, who were tried for their bowling, failed to do anything note­ worthy ; the first-named did not get a wicket, and the latter was very expensive, the batsmen playing his bowling with the utmost confidence. The results of the matches already played would seem to point to the following as being most likely to do credit to Oxford:—Leslie, Kemp, Walker, Shaw, Hine-Haycock, Ruggles-
