There was as good a finish in this match as there had Ieen I etween Rugly and ftiarlborough iwo days before, but the winning side was mightily haid put to it before victory was in its grasp, and the losers had almcst as much glory as if they had won. On the first day’s play Haileybury had a slight advan­ tage, having made 107 for tix wickets against 232. The honouis of the day rested * i h R. C. Clarke and and A. F. Spooner, the foimer playing a fine all- n und game, and showii g decided poweis of hitting, while the latter played hard on the ball and let no loose ones escape. The tail, especially Toyne and Peshall, played up so well that Baileybury had a lead of 1*1 on the first innings, and when they dis­ posed of Cheltenham for 150 they seemed as certain of ah easy victory as anything cou d be in such a game as cricket. But a remarkable surprise was in store, and although Haileybury only had to make 30 iuna, there was such a tremendous breakdown that it would not have Ieen very surprising if Cheltenham had pulled he match out of the fire. As it was they got seven wickets down before they were beaten. C h elten h am . First innings. Second innings. C. T. C. Plowden, b Powell 23 c Hodges, b Firth 16 G.

Marlborough won by five wickets. When, on the second afternoon cf this match, Marlborough had to go in to make 232 to win in three hours on a wicket which was wearing well, there was promise of excitement, for it is nob usual in games between schools for tatsmen to play for a draw if there isa possible chance of victory. As things turned out there was a good deal i f excitement. In the first place two Marlborough wickets fell for 27 runs, and the Rugbeians began to scent victory. But a very fine stand by N. C. Phillips and Graham, which produced 1C2 runs in an hour and twenty minutes, did away with the prospects of an easy victorv for the fielding side, and broughtthe question of making the runs prominently to the front. Again the situation changed, and five wickets were down for 147, so that it was now anybody’s game, with more than a reasonable prospect that theresult would be a draw. But E. S. Phillips and R. B. Watson lost no time in making runs, and presently, with 6 1 required, and an h ur remaining for play, there was plenty of excitement. As time went on, the only question which remained to be decided, short of a suaden and remarkable breakdown, was whether the runs could be made, but s j steadily did the two batsmen force their way, that long before time was up the Rugbeians saw their hopes of saving the game dwindling to nothing, and vitu twenty minutes still in hand the two sixth-wicket men brought off a brilliant victory for their school. Watson had played fine cricket in the first innings as also had N. C. Phillips, who was without doubt the best man on either side. On the Rugby side the best batting was shown by F. W. Bolton and A. O. Snowden, but in the tirst innings A. O. Parsons, who went in ninth, at a t me when the score seemed likely to be small, made 46 by some bold hitting which was not modelled in any precise pattern, and perhaps he showed more individuality tban anybody in either of the two teams.
