If at this.stage the Notts men had made up their minds to go for the gloves they might have lost, but would probably have won. Even when Horsley joined Oates with 8 wickets down a win was quite possible, for then 18 runs were needed in 10 minutes; but time came with 8 still required, and so the visitors took only first innings’ points.

This was to all intents and purposes a new fixture, as the counties had not met for 70 years. Neither side was at full strength. The visitors did not include even the one amateur they usually have, and Hants lacked Fry, Johnston, and Hesketh- Prichard. Rain before and during the hours of play cut short the day to such an extent that only 137 runs were scored. The home side made a disastrous start, 5 wickets being down for 28. Lee, at short leg, caught all five, four of them being very easy. Sprot and Brown added 64 in 45 minutes; but after their separation the innings quickly closed. George Gunn and Lee occupied the remaining 50 minutes in the laboured compilation of 27 runs. Their object was, of course, to have another spell of batting in the morning, and this they achieved. The score was carried to 78 before Lee left. His partner was in 2^ hours in all. Apart from these two, Iremonger and Alletson were the only men to give trouble. They added 41 in 25 minutes. What Hants have missed in being deprived till this period of the season of Kennedy’s services was again shown in this innings, though perhaps Jaques’s two w'ickets outbalanced the professional’s five. Going in with arrears of 65 to make up, Hampshire did finely. Bowell and Stone put up 49 for the first wicket, the latter hitting briskly; Sprot lashed out fiercely, smashing a window with a big drive, and making his 31 in 15 minutes; Bowell helped in a stand of 53, and Newman in one of 118. But Mead was again the central figure of his side’s innings. Seventeen 4’s, mostly lusty drives, were included in his 127, and the only chance he gave in a stay of 140 minutes was a difficult one at 26. At call of time the home side led by 238 runs with three wickets to go. In an hour on Saturday morning 48 were added, and Notts went in to get 287 in about 4J hours.

At Hove, June 19, 20, and 21. The Dark Blues fielded the strongest side they have had out so far this season ; but they started badly against some good bowling by the colt Roberts, and of the earlier batsmen only the captain did anything worthy of him. The association of Melle, who hit hard all through, and Bardsley, who was very slow at first, but scored quickly later on, added 88 in 55 minutes. Sussex lost two wickets for 13 ; but Vine and Robert Relf added 110 in 75 minutes before call of time. Continuing on Friday (when play was curtailed by rain), they stayed together till they had added 264 in about 150 minutes. Relf did the bulk of the scoring, of course. He gave only one chance (at 142), and hi,s twenty-four 4’s were the result of varied strokes, though powerful driving played a big part in them. Vine hit a 5 and six 4’s in his three hours’ stay for 93. Charlwood and Chaplin made some runs, and made them very w ell; but the two partners in the big stand were responsible for just over 75 per cent, of the runs from the bat. The ’Varsity’s second innings did not last long. Owing to injuries Bardsley and R. S. M. White (who was repre­ senting Oxford for the first time) could not b at; and Twining had been called away for an examination. G. R. R. Colman was allowed to bat in his place, though logically there was no better reason for this than there would have been for letting the other places be filled. Fender bowled very effectively. Sussex won by an innings and 33 runs.
