L. Hughes 6 for 31, Snow 4 for 55. The Knowle and Dor­ ridge fielding was first-class; except for two very hard c. and b.’s every catch was held, and some of them were not easy. J. H. Peace and Snow in the slips, the Rev. W. I. Rice at the wicket, and J. E. Harrison in the country brought ofF especially good efforts. G.W.R. v. P arson ’ s G reen .— G .W .R ., 157; C. E.

M i l l H i l l P a r k . — Old Olavians, 2 3 1 far 8, dec.; W. B. Owen 1 0 5 , W. J. Williams 5 9 . Mill Hill Park, 6 4 ; R. W. Kelly 2 5 *, W. M. Bemister 2 2 . Owen played a capital forcing knock, and be and Williams added 1 4 0 together on a soft wicket upon which the balls hung a bit. O.O.’s 2 3 1 only took 1 1 5 minutes. Williams bowled finely, and took 8 for 3 9 . Slough v . Shepherd’s Bush.— Slough, 2 2 4 for 8, dec.; E. Smith 4 4 , Dr. E. Weaver Adams 3 8 , W. Gooderson 3 3 *, T. P. Wilmot 2 0 , W. E.Baber 1 8 *. Shepherd’s Bush, 2 2 2 for 5 ; M. P. Bajana 1 5 5 , C. T. Burgess 4 6 . Gooderson and Baber added 5 2 for the seventh wicket of Slough in 1 5 minutes, taking all risks. Shepherd’s Bush had 9 0 min­ utes to get the runs in, and wasted ten of them before starting. Bajana played a great forcing innings. He made 6 9 of the first 7 6 , and (missed three times', however) 1 0 0 out of 1 2 0 , and 1 5 5 in all (twenty-four 4 ’s). A t 2 1 8 , with 7 minutes still left, Slough seemed fairly in the cart. Baker was put on for the second time this year. Off his third ball he took a e. and b. from Burgess, and off the fifth ball Bajana was caught. Then Horlick ibowled a maiden, and Slough were saved. For Shepherd’s Bush D. E. Lewis took 6 for 1 0 9 . A q u a r io u s v. B a lh a m W a n d e r e r s . — B . W., two men short, 1 2 0 ; W. J. Atfield 4 5 , L. Pounds 1 9 . Aquarius, 8 0 .

Gorringe 2 3 . Except while Freeman (two hours — 1 2 fours) and Smith were adding 7 2 in about half-an-hour, the C. & G. scored slowly. The Wanderers had about 9 0 minutes to bat in a poor light. Street did the hat trick for them— O. R. Borradail®, C. Hurst, and W. Sladden his victims. R ic k m a n s w o r t h v. G r e v i l l e . — Rickmansworth, 1 0 8 . Greville, 1 5 1 for 8; O. E. Dunn 6 5 , E. W. Rogers 2 2 . The runs were hit off for three wickets, and the remaining batsmen simply “ had a go.” J. W. Middleton (6 for 6 2 ) and A. G . Jannings (4 for 3 3 ) bowled well for the winners. G r e v i l l e A. v. P a d d in g to n . — Greville, 1 8 1 ; C. F. Snell 7 8 , J. N. Rhodes 3 9 — these two put up 1 1 6 for first wicket. Paddington, 1 1 8 . Paddington had a wicket to fall at call of time, but agreed to play on— a sportsmanlike action highly appreciated by Greville. H a r r o w II. v.
