NOTES.

Only one Hutt team won tiie. toss on,, Saturday, the Junior O's were the. fortunate ones and made good use ~V»f the opportunity, getting 304 runs, of which total' Moran secured 103 (retired). Seven others -registered double figures.

The- fielding of Ross was a feature of the Senior match on Saturday. His returns to the wiekeis were deadly, the stumps being hit on four occasions.

Aldersley and Wanes trundled best for the local team, although their figures" do - not read as though this was the case..

When Crook and Ward were oatting it was evident that >he best chance of securing their wickets was on the, "on side" as both batsmen were Inclined to be uppish in their strokes in this direction > yet^ no attempt was made to. park any extra fieldsmen on the leg side. Very few batsmen Are comfort-, able to a bowler who can send down five out of six balls on the leg pin. During his second spell" at tile crease, Warnes .had five men' on the leg. side, but unfortunately,bowled -four balls out of six on the off. He should perseryer.e with- the .leg theory. ■■ '■' . .

Barnes, of the Third A team, registered a good performance with tie ball on Saturday> Securing fr for 30. A medium paced left h3and.er, tiis boy should deyelop into a good bowler.

. N"b less than-five centuries were recorded on the* local ground on Saturday last.' '.•■■• ■• .- - . .:'./ :
