East-Shirley, the second team, could not capitalise on its first innings lead. Hagley Old Boys, with an outright win over West-University, moved closer to the leaders.

Old Collegians B was 83 for two in its second innings but was all out for 95.

The outstanding performance was by the Hagley Old Boys medium-pacer, T. L. Jones. He mowed through the West-Uni-versity second innings and took nine for 47.
