Several players have suggested that the match commence at 2.30 p.m. and continue till 6.30 p.m. If the match were started earlier some of the players may not be able to get. away from business. Other clubs in Masterton have placed their nets at the disposal of the "Old
'Timers" on practice days. Players are requested to wear proper cricket shoes at the nets. Dr Bcrney, A. Styles and E. SortainSmith showed good form at the nets last night.
