THOUGHthe season generally was not by any means a favourable one for the fulfilment of cricket engagements , as the following statistics will show, the executive of the Marylebone Club carried out in the most complete and con- sequently satisfactory way a very arduous programme. I nall 142 m a t c h e s wereplayed, andof these only twenty-three were lost-a sufficient proof that the managementwas as efficient as it well could be, and that the organization neces- sary to workout manydetails involved in the proper completion of such a heavy list of fixtures wasworthy of the reputation of the premier Club of England.
