B. Bond were also included in the home team. The Yorkshire youngsters fared none too w ell; Birtles and Holmes, both really good bats, made a stand of 82 for the second wicket, but no one else was much in the picture. Surrey started badly, but afterwards scored at a fine pace. There were stands of 102 by Myers and Sandham and of 116 by Myers and Peach, and 336 for 7 was the total at close of play. Myers made his 142 in only a trifle over as many minutes, and slammed one 6 and nineteen 4’s. Y o r k s h ir e (2nd XI.]. Bates, b Reay ..........................

Umpires: H. Thompson andjs’arraway. Cambridge University v. Free Foresters. At Fenner’s, June 9, 10, and 11. The L ight Blues were without Mulholland and Lang, and Cumberlege’s aid was given to the opposition. Only Saville saved them from collapse. Davies helped him to add 77 for the second w icket; but during the rest of the innings he had to do practically all the scoring. His score stood at 95 when Woodroffe came in ; but the latter lasted out to the end of the over, and Saville then hit the necessary runs, and promptly thereafter skied a ball about which Captain Collins at mid-on made no mis­ take. The Middlesex man’s first century in first-class cricket was quite chanceless, made at a time that rendered it doubly valuable, and contained fifteen 4’s. For the Foresters’ second wicket Mclver and Cumberlege added 49, and Gillingham and the latter were in w ith the score 95 for 2 when rain stopped play. On Tuesday Cumberlege took his score to 172. He only gave one chance, quite late, batted 4 hours 10 minutes, and hit sixteen 4’s. Many as are the candidates, he can scarcely be left out of the final eleven, one would imagine. No one else reached 50, but Gillingham, Collins, Crutchley, and E. A. C. and W . G. Druce all made useful scores, the result being a succession of partnerships that tried the Cantabs’ bowling hard. Going in against a deficit of 212, Cambridge had just wiped it off, with 5 wickets to fall, at call of time. Davies again batted well, and he and Lagden put 011 95 for the second wicket. Lagden was in brilliant form, and looked safe for another century, but was out at 90, putting up a ball to mid-on. Saville was bowled by Fyffe immediately play began on Wednesday, and of the rest only Fairbairn did anything. Kidd was unfortunately absent, ow ing to an injury. The few runs required were knocked off by the Foresters for the loss of a couple of wickets. C am b rid ge G. B. Davies, c Gillingham, b Crutchley. J. S. F. Morrison, b Crutchley R. B.
