LETCKSTERSHIKE. Played at Maidstone on July 23, 21 and 25. Kent won by ten wickets. The home side again showed what a wealth of run-getting they can command, hitting up 410 on the first day in four hours and twenty minutes, six of the first seven on the side exceeding 25. After Burnup was bowled at 39, Seymour and Humphreys added 127 for the second wicket ins-ixty-five minutes, their partnership providing the brightest cricket of the day. Seymour, who hit a 5 and thirteen 4’s, reached 50 in an hour and a quarter, and, in all, scored 87 out of 166 in 100 m inutes: Humphreys, who hit well all round the wicket, and hit eighteen 4’s. reached 50 in forty-five minutes, 100 in two hours, and, altogether, made 122 out of 242 in one hundred and forty minutes. Neither player made a mistake of any kind whatever. Mason played a vigorous innings of 54, which lasted fiftj'-five minutes and included nine 4’s, and with Humphreys added 71 for the fourth wicket in forty minutes. After lunch Coe, whilst bowling, sprained his left thigh, and was obliged to retire from the game, his absence naturally weakening the visitors considerably. Marsham made some big drives during the hour ho was in, but. the last few men failing, the innings closed for 410. Before play ceaf-ed for the day, Leicestershire scored 32 for the loss of Wood and- Whitehead. On Tuesday the visitors batted in very feeble fashion, and made a very poor stand indeed against Fielder, whose half-dozen wickets cost just under eleven runs each. W hen they followed-on, 286 behind, W ood proved to be in his best form, with the result that, by the time stumps were drawn, he had made 130 in two hundred and sixty minutes, the total of his side being 279 with five wickets down. He hit well on the on-side, and with K ing added 113 for the fourth wicket. Yesterday W ood took his score to 137 before being, eighth out at 301, after batting for five hours. He hit nineteen 4’s, and made no mistake. At the end of the innings Jayes and Odell put on 39 in half-an-hour, but Kent, who were set only 57 to win, obtained the runs without loss in half-an-hour, and won accordingly by ten wickets.

Owing to rain there was no play on the opening day prior to lunch. Both Odivierre and Smith bowled well, but the home side hardly did as well as was expected in scoring only 147. Dickson, who made the highest score on the side, was missed ere he had made a run. Before play ceased for the day the West Indians, with four wickets down, had got to within 36 runs of their opponents. Constantine, hitting eight 4’s, made G 8 in fifty minutes, and with Layne added 87 for the second wicket. On the second day the innings, thanks largely to Austin and Learmond, who put on 72 'for the last wicket, realised 219. The home side played belter ci icket when they went in the second time, and at the end of tho day were 55 runs on with six wickets in hand. Yrsterday Dickson played another good innings, and Nixon, who has made many fine scores in recent years at Eastbourne, also did well, with the result that the innings realised 304. The West Indians obtained the 203 required to win for the loss of six wickets. Score and analysis S co tla n d . C. H. M. Ebden, c and b Ollivierre ........................... 6 J.
