Umpires— Bagshaw and Phillips. Somerset v. Sussex. At Bath, July 31, August t and 2. Sussex played A. M. Harrison, a schoolmaster, qualified by residence at Worthing. Last year he headed the Dorset batting averages and took 23 wickets at under 15 each, and it is curious that he should not have bowled a ball in this match. The home side topped 400 for the first time since 1909 (402 for 8 v. Kent at Taunton, including 201* by T a l­ bot Lewis), and made the Sussex bowling look rather cheap, though Robert Relf did good work. The feature of the Somerset innings was a capital stand by Johnson and Hyman, who added 159 in 100 minutes. Both showed-fine form, and gave the field no chance. Hyman batted 155 minutes for his n o , which included fourteen 4’s. Johnson was in 135 minutes (thirteen 4’s). Braund was very slow, but Poyntz and Hylton-Stewart hit out well, and at call of time the score was 392 for 7. On Friday 30 were added, the Cantab’s 72* including eleven 4’s. Despite some fine hitting by Fender (56 in 50 minutes, nine 4’s), who, with Albert Relf, added 71 in an hour, eight wickets were down for 197, and Sussex, with Cox disabled, looked to have 110 chance of saving the follow-on. But now Chaplin, who had gone in late on account of a badly bruised thumb, joined Street, and the forlorn hope added 127 unparted in So minutes. Chaplin has played many a plucky innings, but never a pluckier one than this. Everyone hoped to see him reach the century on Saturday, but with 14 runs added (141 in 95 minutes for the wicket), the Sussex cap­ tain was caught at cover for 93 (fourteen 4’s). There was never any great prospect of a finish. Johnson scored 54 in 80 minutes, and Braund, who is partially crocked by a strain in the groin, batted 105 minutes for 32. It was doubtless as a concession to the crowd that the innings was declared, as if Somerset had really been going all out for a win policy would have suggested keeping Braund back. The visitors started with somehope ofgetting the 246 needed in 140 minutes, and Chaplinhit up 63 in an hour. Jupp helped him to add 95; but after Chaplin had gone Sussex were reduced to playing for safety, and-at one time their defeat looked on the cards. S o m erset . First Innings. J. Daniell, b Relf (R.

Why this match '-hould not have been reckoned as first-class is a mystery. Northamptonshire is a first-class county. The match Surrey ;v. Scotland was ,first-class. M.C.C. v. Middlesex (two days) in May was scheduled .first-class. Are we to suppose that only at Lord’s can two-day matches of first- c.lass rank be played i And if so, why ? Thompson, not quite well, stood down from the county side, otherwise re- pi esentative, and Scotland put a -strong team into the field. A big stand was made in Northants’ first by Haywood and J. S. Denton, who added 147 for the fourth wicket. Hay­ wood hit finely, and Denton played his own wristy game in great style. The Scots’ batting on the first day was poor, and they had only scored 160 for 9 at call of time. On Saturday, Northants, leading by 136, lost Woolley early, while Haywood had to retire hurt; then W. H. Denton and Smith added 120 in quick time, and after Denton had left, Smith and Walden continued to pile on runs until the former had reached his century. The inn­ ings was then declared, and Scotland had three hours in which to make 370. To get so many in the time was out of the question ;•but-the -Scots’ showed much superior form to that Of Fiidav, Some, Kerr, Dickson, and Turnbull all batting really well, and there never looked much chancp of their defeat.
