' (Recd. May 28, 11 a.m.) CAMBRIDGE, May 27. From special correspondent United Press Association with the team. Fraser, a slow left-hander threatened a New Zealand collapse, but Wallace hitting ten fours, and a sixer made a superb stand, giving a stylish display of footwork on drives and square cuts. He.made a rock-like defence and saved the day, assisting the score from. 4. for 46 to 135. ..

There was a tense situation when ten were wanted to equal the varsity score. Cowie stonewalled and Wallace collared the bowling, scoring 40 out of the last wicket stand of 41. Cambridge opened the second innings with dogged determination, Payton and Yardley taking 80 minutes for five runs. Then there was a period of lapse in the field, Payton giving chances off Gallichan and Moloney, but the wicket was ‘ now perfect, and Moloney took the next five wickets with eleven balls.

Page with forceful driving hit four fours, and assisted by Moloney and Hadlee, succeeded in scoring the necessary runs, with delightful cricket, for New Zealand to win by eight wickets in an hour and a-quarter.
