ALBION GOES UNDER

UNIVERSITY GAIKS TWO POINTS On the University Oval, Logan Park, Albion suffered defeat at the hands or the improving University team. On the first day of play Albion succumbed when 150 runs were on the slate, while ’Varsity scored 62 tor the loss or one wicket. After a late start and several adjournments on Saturday, the students collected the required number of runs for a first innings’ win after the loss ot five wickets, and continued on until 0.10 to score another 72 runs. _ Ibbotson (22) and Inest (24) resumed their innings, the latter adding 8 runs when he was well taken in the slips by Caskie. Ibbotson and uttley wex - © then together, and the total was taken to 115, and the former had scored 50 when 11. Silver scattered his stumps. Uttley continued to bat solidly and scored 53 with forceful shots all round the wicket before he lifted one into Barron’s hands at square le£. His knock undoubtedly placed University in a winning position, as none of the remaining batsmen looked like staying long against Albion’s well-directed attack. For Albion 11. Silver maintained an excellent length for twenty-two overs, and under the conditions did well to

capture four wickets for 46 runs. Heenan had a hard task to perform behind the wickets, but did his work admirably. With less than half an hour to go, however, he received a severe injury to his finger and was forced to retire, L. Smith taking over the gloves. Details: — ALBION.
