N orthants had the help of the Aldershot Command batsm an, Ryan, for the first tim e this season. Sm ith won the toss, and, after his side had lost 3 wickets cheaply, made with W oolley a valuable stand of 77. Both had luck, and the Gloucestershire fielding this year seems scarcely up to the old high standard. Walden and Wells, neither giving a chance, added 61 in 45 m inutes for the eighth wicket. Gloucestershire, save for one man, collapsed before Thompson, and at call of time had 5 wickets down for 91. The exception was Stanley Brow n, who laid on the wood like a Jessop or a Sewell, and rattled up 43 (9 fours) in 25 minutes. On Tuesday, after rain and sun had played their parts, bowlers were on top. The outstanding five wickets only realised 26 runs, and when the visitors batted again m ost of them fell to Dennett, who, though far more freely hit than the man at the other end, proved very effective. Thompson made his 37 in 35 m inutes, but both he and H ayw ood had a life. The runs needed were all too m any for Gloucestershire on such a wicket. Sewell hit up 44 (2 sixes, 4 fours) in about half-an-hour, and Langdon stayed 50 minutes for 12 ; but no one else could do anything with Thompson and Sm ith, who bowled unchanged. Each of the last five Gloucestershire batsmen made a single— a curious coincidence. For their victory b y 143 runs Northants owed something to the luck of the wicket, something to bad fielding (as to missed catches— other­ wise there was not much wrong), and a great deal to Sm ith and Thom p­ son, who did practically all the bowling and m ade useful scores. Thom p­ son did not bowl a single no-ball as far as the. analysis shows. But perhaps some were h it ! . . . E s s e x B o w l e r s ’ A n a l y s is .

D urham League) m aking 137 for Chester-le-Street v. W earm outh, and G. Gibson 106* for Durham C ity v. Boldon. O n Saturday there was some very interesting cricket. No century was registered ; but T . Patterson scored 86 and Sm ith 54* for Phila­ delphia v. Eppleton, and W eight 70*, W . B. Sharp 57*, and R. Blunt 34 for Burnm ow v. Seaham H arbour. Philadelphia made 190 for 3, Burnm ow 210 for 2. I n other m atches scoring ruled lower. W earmouth (161 for 8) beat W hitburn (81), H. P. Clode, form erly of the O val staff, now playing as an am ateur, taking 6 for 48. Boldon beat Hendon by 32 runs, though Morris had for the losers identically the same figures as Clode. D urham C ity (130 for 7) defeated Sunderland (121), and South Shields (155 for 8) beat Chester-le-Street (154) after a tense struggle, four Shields w ickets falling at 101. Philadelphia and Bumm ow easily won their matches, G. Summ erill taking 7 for 56 for the latter. N o r t h a m p t o n s h ir e . First Innings. W . H.

G rundy, promoted from the second team , who followed up some good bowling (3 for 49) b y scoring a dashing 55 at a critical time. S t . G e o r g e ’ s made 255 for 7, dec. (W ingham 66, W . W .
