Cricket 1904

338 CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. A ug . 18, 1904 him this week. Both as a batsman and as a bowler Gunn has altered his style more than once. He has baen b y turns a steady player and a fast scorer; a bow ler of medium pace and a slow bowler. He has, moieover, altered his run up to the wicket. But these things are not the result of instability in his methods, but rather of careful thought, for ever since he began to play in lirst-class cricket he has used his head. His bow ling has that “ something ” about it which differentrates it from that of the ordinary professional who trusts entirely to his break or his accuracy. W . A . B e tt e sw o b t h .

Oh, woman, in our hours of ease, Of whom the Northern wizard sang As being sometimes hard to please, You suffer yet another pang. You’ve been compared by every bard, From Solomon to George R. Sims, To most things, but this last is hard!— Y lu’re like a wicket, full of whims. The simile, as one admits, Though rather strained, has certain force, For when the turf is worn to bits Grass-widowed it becomes of course ; But would it rouse your vengeful ire If we infer you may be classed As sometimes hard and full of fire ? At Brighton that you’re rather fast ? You in the turf great interest take ; Top-dressing is a source of bliss ; Too quickly off a ball will break ; A “ long hop ” seldom comes amiss. “ Mis-timed ” my coming is, you say. It’s pretty clear that out of joint My nose is—and that, by the way, You’re pleased fco call a “ silly point.” Yet, Chloe, show me, with a smile, The soft spot that your heart affords ; I’ll be no mere spectator, while Your mother pitches you at Lord’s. I’m cast, like you, in human mould; Be soft, yet ever true to me. What though your face grows creased and old? 11 Protected ” you shall ever be. Evening Neivs. DURHAM v. BEDFORDSHIRE.
