N ote .—O w ing to the fact that I still lack the bow ling figures of three sides, I am unable to give the bow ling averages in this issue. I hope to give them in the next. Overseas Cricket. Under date of September 20 our Toronto correspondent, Mr. E. S. Jackson, writes: “ Cricket is as good as over in the Queen City. For Canada the season has been, on the w hole, rather a bad one. I do not mean in the way of weather, for rain fell on only one Saturday, and even then not sufficiently to prevent cricket. But the game has scarcely advanced to the extent which, at the beginning of the season, we had reason to believe that it would. The Toronto club have added to their Dom inion Championship honours, beating Sim pson’s, one of the big departmental stores teams by 45 runs, and thus gaining the City League championship. It was a good game, both sides playiug capital cricket. A fitting close to the season was a match between the Champions and an All Toronto X I., played in aid of one of the local hospitals— a match promoted with the twofold object of boom ing the grand old game and assisting a deserving institution. All Toronto, strong in all depart­ ments, won by 124 runs on the first innings. H. G. W ookey, the Rosedale captain, got 8 of the losers’ wickets for 18, four being taken before the first run was scored off him . An incident in the game was the no-balling by tbe square-leg umpire of one of the leading bowlers of the city on the score of unfair delivery.’’ P. J. H iggins has a wonderful batting average for L os Angeles this season. He has gone in nine times, been three times not out, aggregated 1,085, and averaged 180*83 ! H is seven centuries is a new American record, beating Dr. J. A . Lester’s six some years ago. O. D. Rasmussen, another Californian player, though only a bird of passage, has also been distinguishing him self. An Austra­ lian by birth, he had a few years back an analysis of 8 for 2 to his credit in a match for the W est Melbourne H igh School, whose eleven he captained. He made a name in Shanghai, for whom he played against H ong Kong in three successive inter port contests, dis­ missing 7 H ong Kong batsmen for 29 in one innings, and hitting up two 6’s and seven 4’s in a quarter of an hour last year. He has been taking special courses at the University of California, and will return to China after graduating in optometry and ophthalm ology at the Southern California College. Meanwhile he has been playing for Fresno. He and W . G. Cochrane, the captain of the side, set up a new record by adding 213 unparted for the seventh wicket (Rasmussen 106*, Cochrane 102*) in one match, and in another (against San Diego) Rasmussen hit up 96. Rasmussen has also distinguished him self under both codes of football, at baseball, lawn tennis, hockey, golf, and rifle-shooting. A rare all-rounder, this man of three continents! If he were to return to Australia, and get a place in the Australian team for the next tours is South Africa and England, he could claim to have made his name known in all five quarters (something wrong here, but let it go) of the globe. Am ong those who played for Canada v. the United States at Philadelphia last m onth was F. I. C. Goodm an, a member of the famous Barbadian cricket fam ily, who is now studying at M cGill University, Montreal. H e is a nephew of Percy Goodm an, who was here with both W est Indian teams, and of the late Clifford Goodman, perhaps the best bowler the W est Indies ever produced, and a son of the Attorney-General of Barbados, H.S. 89 70 120 33 91 44* 48 43 60 65 50 76 47 52 51 39 75 59 58 46* 33 34 71 35 42 58 66 45 35* 63 64 47 75 90 31 29 35 36 35* 47 45 47 53 44 37 31 32 45 44 72 35 44 4C 51* 40 38 40 46 25 23 31 28* 18 46 53* 50 35 34 29 32 27* 24 33 19* 37 22 32 24 20 * 21 35 22 14* 26 40 15 37 32 32 27 28 33 22 21 27 21 22 43 19 41 13* 24 30 31 88 28
