AUSTRALIANS BEATEN

CARR'S "QOOGLIES" play havoc.

Thfl weather on the third day (Saturday) at Scarborough was fine and the wicket good. The attendance was moderate. Laver put his leg in front of one of Carr's after adding 2 to his overnight score. Tbiee for 40. Macartney was foolishly nm out at 60, and Bardsley went a run I**BT. Carr, with a googly, disposed of, Hartigan. Six for 84. Ransford and Armstrong got together, and with steady play the century was hoisted. Hansford lost his wicket in attempting to run a short one. Armstrong fell a victim to Carr's googlies. The seventh wicket was down at 112, and the eighth at 121. Cotter batted vigorously, and hit two 6's. Nine for 148. The innings finished at one o'clock for 159 Tuns. England thus winning by 133 runs. Scores: N English Elevkn.

Bowling Analyses.—Carr, five wickets for 78 runs; Buckenham, nil for 17; Thompson, nil for 1; Rhodes, two for 30; Hirst, one for 19. [Scores of Noble and O'Connor are not stated.]

NOTES BY "ONLOOKER."

Saturday's reverse is the first sustained by the colonials since tho Test match at Birmingham in tho last week of May, though they have had somo lucky draws. After such a succession of" unfinished games, it is quite refreshing to learn that tho weather permitted of three full davs' play.

Carr is credited with" nine wickets in the two innings at a cost of 105 runs. Tho record of the Australians to date is : Matches played, 37; -won, 13; lost, 4; drawn, 20. ...

Bardsley knocks at the door of that 2.000, but finds difficulty in getting there. He should manage it in to-day's engagement. Lbw has claimed him a-s a victim many times during tho tour. Australian centuries against " so-called " English Elevens: T. Horan, 112. in 1882; W. Bruce, 106, and S. P. Jones 108 (not out), in 1886; S. E. Gregory. 154, in 1895 • R, A. Duff, 182, and V. Trumper 115, in 1902; C. Hill, 181, in 1905. The following aro tho best of the Australian bowling performances against English Elevens:—H. F.

The results of the games between Australia and unrepresentative English Elevens can be obtained from the following list-

The present contest is with a .South of England Eleven at Hastings. ThU week completes tho Australians' tour The match to bo played at Sydney on January 21. 22, 23, 24. and 25 for C T B Turners benefit will probably be one* between the Australian team now touri™ England and the next eleven. ° Writing to a friend in Adelaide, Mr F Laver, tho manager of tho Australian team in England, stated that at the conclusion of the tour, about the middle of September, they would enjoy a fortnight'., motor tour through England! and Scotland as tho guests of Mr Peter Dawson. The following paragraph is from ' The Asian,; of Calcutta.—"lt is rumored that Warwick Armstrong, the great Australian cricketer, who is at present touring in England, and playing in the Test and other cricket matches, is likely to be coming to India about October, and if inducements ara good enough this gentleman may be settling in the country "either in Calcutta or in Bombay. Mr Armstrong is thinking of opening sporting stores, and would also bo glad to coacfi cricketers There is no doubt that a man of Mr Arm strongs expenoico and capabilities in the cricket line would be a groat acquisition to the country, and if this gentleman decides about staying in India, it is to be hoped he will chooso Calcutta as a place of residence.. Wo feel sure Mr Armstrong would receive strong patronage from all sportmnen, and would meet with success.

■There arc! rumors current to the effect that one of the triangular matches in which l \k n $S ters ° f E "g' and » Avetralia, and South Africa are to take part in 1912 mav be played m Q asgow. The Australians are said to favor tho idea.
