BOWLERS ON TOP.

CITY AND SUBURBAN. SIX INNINGS COMPLETED. THREE OF THEM IN SIXTIES. Friday night's rain and showers on Saturday morning made the Domain pitches tricky for the special one-day third series of matches in the Auckland City and Suburban Cricket Association's senior competition. As a consequence, in all three games both sides completed a full innings, four-point wins being credited to Green L/ane. K.V. and Manukau. Naturally, in such circumstaijces the bowlers "had a picnic," no less than four men taking as many as six wickets during the afternoon. They were ('. Ken- (Green Lane). A. Hetherington (Brixton). C. G. Finlayson (R.Y.), an-d J. Mann (Manukau). 'I lltee batemen topped the lialf-century: N*. (Joldsworthy (R.V.). Roy Rough ton i N .Z. hockey centre forward) for Green Lane, and W. S. Bambury for R.V. K.V. is now the only unbeaten side in this season's championship. The scores were: — DILWORTH V. MANUKAU. nil.WOßTH.—First Innings.
