Umpires : butt and White. Cambridge University v. Northamptonshire. Only three blues— Mulholland, Kidd, and Calthorpe— turned out for this match on Monday. The visitors had R. F . Knight and H. S. Snell for W . H. Denton and Wells. Cambridge did none too w ell; but for Kidd, indeed, they would have fared very badly. In 110 minutes last year’s captain made 95, including ten .4’s. L an g and Wood assisted him in stands of 68 for the fourth and 87 for the fifth wicket respectively. The last five wickets only realised 36. Before close of play Northants had made 196 for 5 in 135 minutes, Woolley’s 69 being the only innings of any note, however. Sydney Smith took his score to 71 next morning, an admirable innings, lasting 2 hours. Everybody made runs, and all but the not-out man double figures, and the County had a lead of 116 when the innings closed. Kidd was ais easily ahead in the bowling department as in batting, and his 5 for 108 off 32 overs in such an innings was good value. A heavy thunderstorm, with torrential rain, stopped play when the innings had finished. After the storm 40 minutes’ play resulted in the downfall of five Cam ­ bridge wickets for 60, G. B. Davies’s 23 and a fine drive for 6 by Mulholland being the only features of the batting worthy of note. On Wednesday morning Mulholland (not out 18 overnight) played a great game. Batting in all 3 hours 10 minutes, he hit three 6 ’s and thirteen 4’s. Calthorpe helped him to add 71 for the sixth wicket. Thus not only was the innings’ defeat averted, but Northants were sent in to get 134 to win. They made light of the task, however, Smith and John Denton hitting off the runs without being parted.

Oxford University on June 9, 10, and 11, and v. Surrey on June 12, 13, and 14 :—■ M. R. Dickson (Arbroath United, captain), R. G. Tait (Forfarshire), A. Broadbent (Aberdeenshire), A. C. Cullen (Uddingston), John Kerr (Greenock), T . A. Bowie (Clack­ mannan County), J. A. Ferguson (Perthshire), J. H. Orr (Stirling County), R. W . Sievwright (Arbroath United), T . C . Dunlop (Ayr), and Benskin (Perthshire). W ith this side to send South we have little to complain o f ; it is quite representative of Scottish cricket. G. W . Jupp (Carlton), B. L. Peel (Grange), G. K . Chalmers (For­ farshire), and G. L. D. Hole (Edinburgh Academicals), are wanting, certainly; but the team will not be greatly weakened by their absence. The lack of a fast bowler of any worth among the amateurs is no doubt responsible for Benskin's inclusion. The tour is an experiment, to give our men some experi­ ence of English county methods and bring them into closer touch with “ b ig ” cricket, with a view to annual engage­ ments between English and Scottish sides. Oxford Univer­ sity and Surrey will, it is expected, appear in Scotland next season. The first century of the season in senior cricket here was registered on Saturday, when A. J. Reid reached that figure for Leith Caledonian against Grange. Reid has been playing the gam e for over twenty years; but this was his first hundred, and indeed no one ever thought that he would score that number in an afternoon match, as his rate of progress is never very rapid. Morfee’s feat of taking all ten wickets in a match has been equalled by Cobley, of G lasgow Academicals, who against Grange secured the lot for 29 runs. This perform­ ance was not sufficient to ensure victory for his side, which was ultimately beaten—70 to 47. The Academicals are not going very strongly at present, for Clydesdale got rid of them in their next match for a paltry 28. Beardsworth (7 wickets fo r .11) was the disturbing factor. Another bowling performance of note was that of Nash, of Uddingston, who, in the dismissal of Drumpellier for 35, captured 7 wickets for 10! It must be a long time since the Coatbridge team were all out for such a small total. It was just one of those occasions on which everything went right for the fielding side, with splendid bowling backed up by perfect fielding. Uddingston made 117.
