Played at Eastbourne on July 1, 2, and 3. A REMARKABLE FIRST APPEARANCE. Su.*sex won by by an innings and 51 runs. Showery weather was experienced at Eastbourne on Monday, detracting considerably from the enjoy­ ment of the spectators. The Oxonians made a deplurable start, losing Foster, Bruce, and Payne— a cousin, by-the-way, of the Cambridge captain—for 13. Gordon afterwards played well, and, although Bowring helped to add 45, six wickets were down for 93. Gordon made his 51 out of 14G in two hours and a-quarter, and hit seven 4’s. Hurst, Latham, and Brandt all reached twenty, but the innings closed for 1(30. That the small total was not due to any flaw in the wicket was plainly shown when Sussex went in. Scott, who was captain of the Marlborough Eleven last year, accompanied Vine to the wicket and made a most remarkable first appearance for the County. He cut well and made some big off- drives, and, when stumps were drawn at the end of the day with the score 189 for three wickets, carried out his bat for 93. Vine started slowly, but after­ wards played more freely, and helped Scott to make 163 for the first wieket in 110 minutes ; he hit ten 4’s in his 72. The game was interrupted by rain on Tuesday, but Scott succeeded in reaching his hun­ dred after having batted two hours and a-half. At lunch, half the wickets were down for 226, and Scott was not dismissed until 285, when he was eighth out for a faultless 137 made in 220 minutes : he hit seventeen 4’s. With nine wickets down for 320, the innings was declared closed. The Univer­ sity were, therefore, left with 160 to make in order to save the innings defeat, and had two hours and a-half before them. Rain had caused the wicket to assist the bowlers a litl ie, but few were prepared for the collapse which took place. Apart from Barnes and Hurst the batsmen did very poorly, and the whole side were disposed of for 109, Sussex winning three minutes before time by an innings and 51 runs.

Winchester won by nine wickets. Winchester went well ahead on the opening day, establishing a lead of 136 on the first innings. For Eton, Naylor and Curtis added 46 together for the last wicket, whilst for Winchester Parke and Pawson scored 89 for the first in ninety-five minutes. Mc­ Arthur obtained his 58 out of 86 in an hour. On Tuesday Naylor and Curtis again did well, putting on 94 in one hundred and twenty-five minutes after seven wickets had fallen for 88, whilst for Winchester Parke and Pawson made another good first wicket stand, scoring 83 together when their side went in to obtain 87. It is only fair to the Etonians to state that on each day they had the worst of the wicket. Score and analysis E ton . First innings. Second innings. R. L.

The wicket was soft and easy when this match opened in dull and threatening weather on Monday. The visitors, however, quickly experienced disaster, Palairet being sent back at 13, Deane at 26, and Jupp at 50. All three wickets fell to Santall. Bisgood played a very slow game indeed, but by lunch-time the score had been taken to 82 without further loss. During the interval rain fell so heavily that no further progress could be made with the match until the following day. On Tuesday the gaipe was delayed until ten minutes past twelve by the state of the wicket after the heavy rain. Bisgood was caught in the slips from the first ball of the day, after which Lewis and Hodgkinson added 33 together. Woods was soon out, but Lewis found another good partner in Robson, their associa­ tion for the seventh wicket realising 86. The last three wickets fell quickly against Santall, and the innings closed for 214. Lewis played a valuable and watchful innings, and during the three hours he was in made no mistake and hit five 4’s. War­ wickshire batted very steadily, only Fishwick, who hit five 4’s, showing any enterprise. When play ceased for the day, six wickets had fallen for 161. Play was out of the question on Wednesday, the match being abandoned as a draw. Score and analysis :— S omerset . L. C. H. Palairet, b Santall........................ 6 O. G.
