Theie was some heavy scoring on the Adelaide Oval on Saturday, Nov. 29 and Dec. 6. When play ceased on the first day, the Norwoods had made 389 for the loss of only three wickets. George Giffen was then 253 notout, and on the second day he soon got the four runs required to establish a new record for the highest score in South Australia. The interest then centred in his chance of beating the Australian record, W. Bruce’s 328 not out for Melbourne v. Hotham in 1884. This, however, he failed to do, being finely caught at mid-off when he had made 296. He was batting just on five hours, and his hits were six 5’s, forty-two 4’ s, five 3’s, eight 2’s and sixty-seven singles. G. Giffen and Gooden had put on 365 runs, beating the previous best performance for a wicket in South Australia by 68 runs. The innings closed for 627, which, though not a record for the colony, stands as the highest score ever made on the Adelaide Oval. The previous highest was 500 made in 1885 by Prinoe Alfred College against St. Peter’s College. The previous highest score in senior Association matches was 497, made by the Adelaides against the South Adelaides last season. South Adelaide had made 16 for the loss of one wicket when the game ended. N orw ood . J. J. Lyons, c Ben­ nett, b Reedman ... 21 R. Hill, c Brunton, b Parkin .................. 9 G.
