M a y 23, 1914. THE WORLD OF CRICKET. 173 The Score Book. C r ic k e t in New Z e a la n d . WANGANUI v. POVERTY BAY. HAWKE CUP MATCH. At Wanganui, April 4 and 6. Wanganui, who won the Hawke Cup from South Auckland, again defended it successfully against their latest challengers, Poverty Bay. The visitors included McMahon, one of the heaviest and most consistent scorers in New Zealand ; but in this match his bowling was better value than his batting. To­ wards the holders’ first total of 185 Holland, who played in the New Zealand eleven at Auckland, contributed a capital 56. In their second Bernau, Orton, and H. M. Butterworth, the old Oxonian, were all seen to advantage. Holland also bowled very effectively. The holders won by 201 runs. W a n g a n u i . First Innings. R. W.

McMahon took 8 for 79 and 3 for 63, Cattanach 1 for 20 and 5 for 20 ; analysis otherwise incomplete. W a n g a n u i B o w l e r s ’ A n a l y s is . Holland took 5 for 46 and 6 for 42 ; Bernau, 4 for 34 and 1 for 18 ; Hussey o for 15 and 2 for 17; Johnston (first inns.), 1 for 12— but totals do not quite tally. L e w e s P r io r y and Brighton St. Peter’s played a tie match— 103. B e stw ’ ic k , the old Derbyshire pro., took 7 for 66 and did the hat trick for Neath v. Cardiff. H. H a y l e y scored 91 and took 6 for 4 for Hellingly Asylum v. Eastbourne Trade Branch. F or St. Lawrence (Canterbury) v. Gore Court, Clinch and Wycher­ ley each took 5 wickets for 21 runs. In a small match in Sussex, Railway Athletic II v. Sompting, W. Jennings took 8 wickets for 11, 5 of them in his last over. F o r Hayward’s Heath v. Brighton Clifton, L. C. W. Thring took 7 for 19, and for the other side C. H. Bennett had 5 for 21. D a n H il l , the Midhurst professional, hit up 201* v. Cowdray Park — a six and 32 fours included. He followed up this by taking 7 for 47. J. N. B u c h a n a n ’ s 136 for I Zingari v. Westminster School included a five and 23 fours. A good man is lost to first-class cricket in the old Carthusian. H o v e were left 80 minutes in which to make 174 v. Cuckfield, and scored the runs with 10 minutes to spare. L . H. Coppard made 33 off ten consecutive balls. L. G. Knight for Hove took 6 for 15, three falling in the course of his first four balls. M.C.C. v. YORKSHIRE. At Lord’s, May 13 and 14. Again the premier club put into the field a team which would have been much the better for some stiffening in the batting line. The sky was grey and wintry ; the sun refused to shine ; the temperature was down to some absurd figure ; and, to add to the general depression, the flag flew half-mast high for a great one dead— for R. E. Foster, some of whose greatest triumphs were achieved at headquarters. Nothing much in the Yorkshire batting really calls for comment beyond Hirst’s innings. The veteran batted 145 minutes for his 77*, hooking, driving, and cutting with all his old skill, though not scoring as fast as he often does. There were stands of 60 (by Rhodes and Denton), 57 (by D. C. F. Burton and Hirst, in 50 minutes), 59 (by Booth and Hirst, in 27 minutes), and 38 (by Dolphin and Hirst). The total was nothing out of the way, seeing that the wicket was quite good, and only the complete collapse of the M.C.C. batsmen made it appear big. No one could play Booth, who narrowly missed the hat trick, getting Haig, Thomson, and Docker (lbw, bowled middle stump, and bowled leg stump respec­ tively) in the course of four balls. The wickets fell at 2-10 (three)— 11-14-19-22-31- and 39. On Thursday the club side had to follow on in arrears of 253. No one but Hubble, who batted very well indeed for his 62, made any real resistance ; Drake and Booth again shared the bowling honours ; and little more than half-an-hour after junch on the second day Yorkshire won by an innings and 119 runs..
