WEEK-END CRICKET

GOOD BOWLING AT ANDERSON PARK

M. NICHOLLS'S TALL SCORING

Fine weather again favoured the weekend cricket.

At tho Basin Peserve, where North met Old Boys, tho attendance numbered several hundreds, and whffl stumps were drawn tho odds were iff favour of the former eleven. Batting first, on what ivas generally conceded to be- a dead wicket, Old Boys compiled 117 runs, and their opponents replied with a total of 104 at a cost of five wickets. .Lambert and Konaldson opened for Old Boys, the former being quickly dismissed, but Baker, who followed, survived .the fall of two other wickets to the tune of a I quarter of a century. Tucker went in at the fall of the second wicket, but failed to 'core —Three for 13. Blacklock followed "and his partnership with Baker help- j ed matters somewhat until he was bowled iby Hiddlcston for 10.-Fcnr for 3a. After that the batsmen seemed to become more at home, the remninine 72 runs socured being very evenly distributed over the six wickets. North started out dis-1 astrously, Hiddleston, Bray and W. H. Wii'on being dismissal in that order for the trifling total of nine runs. Then C. G Wilson and Burton made a.stand and pulled the game out of tie fire, and when he formor-nfter giving one chance to Duncan-was finally caught by Lambert, Mhld eton stepped into he breach, The field were now kept fairly busy both batsnvn hitting out occasionally to tho Wkry. Bonaldson missed a runmng 5 from Burton when the,laiters «V n „,i „t 39 and once Middle ton seoro stood at o-, aim Wm _ Sf bv imngaT-his «eond this season fence in the north-fast corner i -V ,t-no imt- until after 6 o clock that ho was offKnowles-Snuth.

The game is therefore at an interesting stage. The Hutt-Biwt fixture, played at tho Hutt ground, was not a very brilliant exhibition of cricket. The home men in first, and after about two hours pay compiled 87 runs, of which total Balks and Condliffc in partnership were resDonsiblo'for 41. Balks played forceful cricket, and had just, got into his stride when ono from Hutchings caught- him napping. His effort represented 26. Condliffe. who does not seem to have struck form yet, played a very cautious innings, witnessing the advent and dismissal of four of his comrades before ho fell a victim to Hutchings in tho slips, Doig (11) was the only other player to find his way into double figures •In the bowling division honours fell to Baumbor (four for 10) and Judd (four for 38). At'about 4.25, East went in, nnd almost immediately things became brisker. Dind and Schraoder opened to M'Girr and Aldersley, buf what looked like being a substantial partnership was cut short when tho score stood at 10, Dind? who was apparently enjoying the bowling.' falling a victim to M'Girr. Bruce his successor, failed to break his "duck." Shortly after the advent of J. Hutchings, senr.. Schraeder, who was l'ust g°tting set, was bowled by Aldersley. J Hutchings, junr., followed, and after scoring eight was well caught by Dukeson. Smith ioined Hutchings, and soon ' the runs began to mount up. Both played good cricket, and .numerous changes in the bowling failed to break the partnership. The effort had realised 62 when Aldersley sent Smith to the uavilion with a well-earned 39 to his credit. Hutchings, senr., who was now firmly established, was joined by Watson, who. after scoring eight, gnve way to TMtf. The last-named player remained! wutli Hutchings until stumps were drawn. Hutchings, who had just reached the half century, was warmly applnuded as he left tho field. Aldersley was the most successful of the Hutt trundlers.
