Cricket 1913

J u ly 26, 1918. CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 455 class innings. T h e combined team gave a poor batting display; Anderson and N ew h all, w ith 31 for the third wicket, made the only real stand. In preference to enforc­ ing the follow -on, the A ustralian s went in again. Mayne was not in such form as on the previous d a y ; he was tw ice missed in m akin g his first dozen, at deep square-leg each time, and C ody also had a life. These two put up 127 for the first w icket. C ody hit eleven 4’s, and played capitally. At the close o f a day’s p lay shortened by rain, B ardsley (missed at 40) was 70*, and the total 285 for 6. On Mon­ day the left-hander made his third century in Philadelphia. His 142 included eighteen 4’s, and his cutting and leg strokes were great. D iam ond was badly hit on the knee by a fast one from Pearce, and given out l.b.w .— probablv a correct decision, but g a llin g in the circumstances. It was cabled that he had to be taken to h o sp ita l; but this seems to have been exaggerated, for he fielded in the last innings. Mailey hit out, and when he- and B ard sley had added 52 in very quick time the closure was applied. A s the com­ bined team needed the trifle o f 560 for victory in 4^ hours, they had no great hope. O n ly Furness made m any runs, but some of the others shaped very w e ll; and there were stands of 27 for the second w icket by Reid and Anderson, 42 for the third by Reid and Furness, and 20 for the tenth by C lark and Pearce.

ALL M ON TREAL Match—A copy of the official score and analysis has now reached us. E. S. Cameron's score in the Montreal second innings was 9 » 7 , which makes the tally correct. The analysis as given by the local papers was not only deficient but so entirely wrong that it seems best to give the official version in full here: M o n t r e a l B o w l e r s ' A n a l y s is .

They had “ Baber" in the score, but they let a suppositious “ Baker” make a catch and take a wicket ; Maker is quite a usual name, and Babsr is nftt, you see. and if there is anything the average comp hates it is a departure from the beaten track. GlfiNTLEMEN OF PH ILADELPH IA, secv>nd match tin last week).—The bowling analysis in the Australians’ second innings was O. M. H. W. O. M. R. W.

Barclay 26*) defeated the Albion team of Victoria (154—J Idiens 42*, E. P. Ward 39). Curgenven is the erstwhile brilliant Derbyshire batsman. R. H. Vaughan took 5 for 55 for Cowichan. For Albion B v. Cowichan B, Pegler made 6 8 , his side winning by 2 wickets. Among the results a week later were : Victoria A, 194 for 4, dec., (Scott 79) beat University School, 140; Oak Bay, 177 (Gregson 55), beat Albion, 112; Men’s Own, 105 (Scarfe 54), beat Garrison, 50 and 44 ; and Oak Bay B. 169, beat Saanich, 119, Schwengers getting 50 for the winners, and H. R. Orr, the old Beds skipper, 28 for one side or the other, which not stated. Perhaps some day Canadian papers will do justice to cricket; they don’t at present. Sometimes, scores are given ; sometimes not ; and the comments made are generally characterised by extreme vagueness. On July 1st Vancouver defeated Victoria, 157. and 116 to 86 . N. H. Peters scored 87 in the winners’ first innings, G. C. Peel 32 and F. J. Peers 25 in their second. For Victoria J. H. Gillespie (26) and L. S. V. York (23*) made most of the runs. E. M. Webb (8 for 4l) for Vancouver in one innings and L. S. V. York (8 for 82) for Victoria in two were the most successful bowlers. On the same day Gilbert Curgenven ran up a hard-hit 110 for Cowichan y. Vancouver Moths, other contributors to Cowichan’s total of 271 being W. W. Burdock (31), R. H. Vaughan (31), F. Barclay (28), and W. A. McAdam (27). C. Illingworth took 5 for 81 for the Moths, who collapsed before Vaughan (6 for 19) and Curgenven (5 for 20) for 44, but following on made 119 for 4 (H. G., Sladen51*). Twelve-a-side played. New Westminister (Miller 55, Cave 35 ; total 138) beat Burrard II. (119), Rose taking 6 wickets for the winners. Albion beat Burrard at Victoria, E. P. Ward scoring 124 for the winners, while for the losers W. H. Twynam made 60 and took 5 wickets. Oak Bay B (C. Barker 79) defeated Albion B, “ the bowling of Watkins and Howland being all that could be desired ” (“ Victoria Daily Times ” ). Illuminating, isn’t it ? I have received the schedule of the Montreal and District Amateur Cricket League, of which the President is Mr. C. F. Lane (who played for All Montreal v. Australians) and the Secretary Mr. P. C. McLachlan. Nine clubs—McGill, Lachine, Montreal, Verdun, Westmount, Pt. St. Charles, C. P. R. Angus, B.N.I., and Woodland Park—are members of the League. The first six play in the A Division, and McGill, Westmount, Lachine, Verdun, and Pt. St. Charles have also teams in the B Division, in which alone the last three of the nine listed above compete. Last year Pt. St. Charles had no team in Division A, and since then Yorkshire Society has dropped out of Division B ; but B.N.I. and Woodland Park are new comers, so that the numbers are more than maintained. It is good to know that the game is so well organised in Montreal, McGill, unbeaten
