MID-WEEK CRICKET
Comment on Play and Players WICKETS FAV0UR BOWLERS (By "Stump.") qEe first round of the Thursday criclcet competition was completed last week, West End and United both seeuring f our points for outfight wins. The scoring was affeeted to a large extent by the slow out field and the wickets definitely favouring the bowlers both days. The fielding of all four teams was of a good standard for so early in the season, It is pleasing" to note that last season's captainj are again leading their respective teams. * HONOUES BOARD. BATTING Martin (West End), 50 and 24. Tacon (West End), 39 and 7 not out. Mahoney (United), 33 and 13. Swallow (United), 29 and 6. Brimmer (United), 28 not out and 36 not out.

BOWLING, Giorgi (Heretaunga), 4 for 15. Martin (West End), 4 for 15. Pitzjohil (United), 4 for 20. . Boyle (United), 3 for 2, 2nd innings. SAUNDEteS, of V^est End, would make cohsidei .bly more" runs if he would wait for the rignt ball tb score' off. This boy uses his feet 'well. - DAVIDSON, of Methodist, has agood eye and if he would concentrate more. many more runs would eome hi3 way. BOYLE, of United, showed his worth as' a bowler in the seeond innings by taldrig three for two. He pitches thein well up and does not make tbe mistake of trying to bowl too fast.
