missals. Even with the services of the former Pctone, and New Zealand representative bowler, Finlayson, who was on the absent list, the Ponsonby attack could hardly have been stronger. Martin and Kerr, by adding 65 for the fifth wicket, were instrumental in warding off another Suburban debacle. Smith, tho last man in. also contributed, by scoring a 23 not out. S. G. Smith’s bowling figures for the day read 5-40, the speed merchant, Hoy, although not as consistent as usual, secured 3 for 44. N. C. Snedden at one stage had taken two wickets for nine runs, but his figures eventually worked out as 2 for 37. UNITED SUBURBS First Innings 5?
