U d Boys match was staged at Kelburn. 1 hei wicket was in fairly R ood shape, and « a ;; l - nK 2 a tlle whole wus intarestinjj; Batting first, North compiled 230 runs, which, were well distributed amongst tlie batsmen. Paterson annexed 53 runs before he was bowled by Tucker, while Burton Wagstnffe, and 'Patrick all ran well into double figures. Lambert and Marris were tho most successful trundlers. North finished their innings about 5 o clock,, after which Old Boys went, in to, bat. and rattled up 111 runs in Epod style, by the time stumps, were drawn, at a cost of two wickets. Lambert, with 49 to his credit, carried his Wt, aa did also Marris. • The Petone-Tliorndon fixture was menced at.Pobnc. .Dull weather prevailed, and the keen eoutherly wind that Mew across the oval was notbonducivo to' Eood cricket.
