PLUNKET SHIELD CANTERBURY WINS ON FIRST INNINGS [Per United Press Association.] CHRISTCHURCH, January 5. Incessant heavy rain made play impossible in the Plunket Shield match between Canterbury and Wellington today. Canterbury therefore won on the first innings. Both matches played at Christchurch this summer have been interfered with by rain. In the first rain gave Canterbury a lucky first innings win over Auckland, and in the second Canterbury was deprived of the chance of forcing an outright win against Wellington. SHEFFIELD SHIELD Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright SYDNEY, January 5. In the match against Queensland New South Wales in the second innings scored 342 (R. Robinson 143, Marks 59, J. Lush 30; Amos three for 90, Cook two for Cl, Wyeth two for 39. Oxenham two for 27). Queensland won by 87 runs.
