(press association telegram.) NELSON, March ll The Hawke Cup matoh was won by Nelson by an innings and 37 runs. RICCARTON v. SPREYDON. TO THE EDITOR OF "THE FRESB." Sir,--Could you possibly throw some light on the following position City and Suburban Cricket Third Grade, Riccarton v. Spreydon. The former are two points in the lead, but hare never met Spreydon on the Spreydon ground, but beat Spreydon on . their ground. The Selection Committee - have appointed the match between these two i to be played at Sydenham Now, to our minds the match should- be played on ' our ground, seeing that Riccarton have never ' played on simo. Then, if a tie results, ' have neutral ground, for the final; but this match is not a final, and should cer- ) tftinly (being a return) be played on oui around.—Yours, etc., _ . givMWL, SPREYDON MEMBER.
