HlCOLiliS, ROBERTS BRIDGE, PATENTEE AND MANUFACTURER OF THE AUTOMATIC BAT HANDLE T H E S E engravings show the advantages, this handle gives, as’ each curve forms a key or abutment against the elastic substance. Al* though these handles are in two pieces from the shoulder to the blade, it is impossible to get them out of shape. The bats, introduced in 1890, have been used by the best Cricketers of England, Australia, and New Zea­ land, as well as having been sent to India and Africa, and the universal testimony is that nothing has ever been brought into the Cricketing world to give such advantages to the batsman in cutting and driving powers.
