CRICKET.

The return match between Te Aute College and the Grammar Sohool was \ played last Saturday at Te Aute, and resulted in a drawn game. In the first innings the bowling on both sides — more especially on the Te Aute side— proved too strong for the batting, but in the second innings the rain having wetted the ball it became too slippery to hold firmly, and so runs were made more freely. During the second innings Waite for Te Ante played well with a score of 21, and Ormond, for the Grammar School, put 13 together very neatly. Between 40 and 50 pilfers and others sat down to an excellent repast provided by Mr and Mrs Thornton, whose hospitality was thoroughly appreciated by the Rev. D'Arcy Irvine and his pupils. The following are the scores : — GRAMMAR SCHOOL. Ist Innings. 2nd Innings.
