The Notts men were seen to very great advantage on the first day of this match, for while the bowling and fielding of the opposing side was always good, they succeeded in putting up 420 runs for the loss of six wickets. Dunng the day there were two long p .rtnerships—W. Gunn and Iremonger putting on 191 runs and John Gunn and Anthony 146 runs. At clofce of play John Gunn was not out with 127 to his credit. This he increased by 34 on Tuesday morning, his entire innings having lasted for three hour*. The last four wickets were soon disposed of. Lees bowled uncommonly well and had an excellent analysis for such a long innings. With Abel and Hayward Surrey made an excellent commencement, both play­ ing in quite their best form and scoring quickly. At lunch time the total was 105 for the lost* of Hayward. With Hayes as a partner, Abel took things more leisurely, and the two men seemed to hive a complete command over the bowling when at last Abel was dismissed for a tine 61. Hayes did not survive him for long and things began to look bad for 8urrey. But there wat no need for anxiety, for every man did his duty. The crowd objected to the slow play of Lockwood, who was lame, but this pasted off. By the time that stumps were drawn there was a strong probability that the match would not be played out, for Surrey had scored 331 for the loss of only five wiokets. Although this record was not kept up yesterday, Surrey were only 65 runs behind when the innings ended. Notts declared in their second innings, but Surrey had.not the slightest difficulty in playing out time. N otts . First innings. A. O.

As the following verses were written in New Zealand, it will be understood why they appear so long after Mr. Gwynn’s death :— Thou, that hast found too early sleep, In fond remembrance dost remain, All lovely thought for thee doth keep Her unforgettable refrain In sorrow’s wilderness of pain Oh ! charmed, beloved, when night is near, And folds thee in a dreamless rest, Thoughts that the garish daylight fear, Encompass thee, and thou art prest By Love to Memory’s sad breast. New Zealand. H. C. THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN 1903. There are only two of last year’s C lipton eleven left in addition to the captain, B. Meakin, for this season. Of the two old choices, J. J. Brown is a fast bowler, very good at times, but rather erratic. The other, B. S. Ramulu, is a very promising bat and a quick field. The captain, Meakin, who is a left-handed bat and a slow right-hand leg breaker, showed very good all-round cricket last season. Of the new choices. G. J. W. Holloway is a promising left-hand bat, playing in correct style. In A. D. Inlay the eleven have a smart wicket-keep. M A Y . 9. v. Queen’s College, Oxford 16. v. Keble College, Oxford 21. v. M.C.C.

Jamieson was the best all­ round player in 1903, and McLeod one of the regular as well as most successful bowlers. Turner and McIntyre were among the most useful bats. Of the new members of the team J. Burt Marshall is a good fast bowler and H. B. Lumsden a useful bat. So far the Fettesians have had honours fairly even. They beat Lasswade by 165 to 161 and drew with Brunswick, making 147 for three to their 165 for eight. They went down how­ ever before Edinburgh University, who won by one run, scoring 70 to 69.

Elderton, as well as being an excellent bat, is a wicket-keeper above the average. In Wells and Hammond, two of last year’s Second XI., it is hoped that two useful bowlers have been found. MAY. 16.
