Baker being' away with toe ' Plunket Shield team, Midland : wexe minus the services of their most, dependable batsman, and their chances of overhauling Hutt's total.of 252 were not fancied. At one stage it appeared t&at the town team would have ta follow, on, as six wickets were down for - 47 runs. A good seventh, wicket stand between Clarke and Lawton, who added 70 runs before the latter was run out, helped materially to avert a follow on. Standidge assisted Clarice to takb the score to 156, although both, wero fortunate to improve their scores"as two chances of stumping the former wero not accepted and the latter ehould hava been, run out. Hester played the rock ...W. .in the-- ninth wicket stand which improved the (score by 42 rtms, "when Clark?'3. valuable innings was terminated,'ab being caught behind the wickets for a sound 69. Oleverley, tie last man, went' lbw to TTatson after the second hundred had been hoisted, Hutt winniag by 52 rims on the first innings. , .Eoss.aLi Beggar opened Hutt's.econd knock having no difficulty in keeping the-.r t?Jckets intact untilVdrawing of stupids with the score at 91—Ross 50 not out; Biggar 39 not out, ■'-.
