U N IT E D STA TE S . Played at Ro?edale, Toronto, on August 25 and 26 and left unfinished, tbe United States requiring 47 runs to win with two wickets to fall when stumps were drawn. There was a rather remarkable collapse in Canada's first innings, the first wicket realising 92 runs and the total being but 156. The last seven wickets went down for 16, Cregar, upon going on for the second time, taking five wickets for 3 runs in 20 balls. The United States were left with 224 to make in two hours and a quarter and, owing to a fine innings by Haines and slack fielding, managed to play out time. Score and analysis :— First innings.

John William Hearne, the young Middlesex player, has accepted the invitation extended to him to visit Australia. As he was on tour in the West Indies during 1910-11, the season of 1912 will be the fifth in succession in which he will have participated without a break —a severe ordeal for a youth who completed his twentieth year as recently as February last. Concerning this young player “ Cricket’s ” Guide to Cricketers says :— “ Born February 11th, 1891, at Harlington, Middlesex. Young enough to be *old Jack’s ’ son, but is actually a second cousin or something of tbat sort. One of the rising hopes of Middlesex. Mr. Warner has a very high opinion of him, and the Middlesex captain is an excellent judge of a cricketer. A very sound batsman indeed; a bowler of leg-breaks, with now and then a googly, who against Essex at Lord’s last August bad seven wickets for three runs after lunch ; and a good field. An England player of the future if he kfeps on as he has begun; and success is not likely to spoil him, for the Hearnes are a level-headed family. Has lately been touring the West Indies with the M C.C. team, and bowling very successfully.” BOOKS RECEIVED. The Ass'riation Football Annual , 1911-12. L ondon: A. W. Gamage, Ltd., Holborn.
