GRAFTON SCORE STEADILY. Grafton scored steadily against UniTersity on No. 3 wicket at Eden Park on Saturday, the innings lasting nearly the full time allotted for play, and resulting in 260 runs being scored. A useful stand between Horspool and Alleofct saw 108 added for the third wicket, bothbatemen playin? well aeainst admirably accurate bowling by Smeeton. Matheson and Garrard. Smeeton did particularly good work with the ball and his analysis by no means flattered him. Langridge had to retire early in the afternoon, owing to a rap on the elbow by a delivery from Matheson.
