WEDNESDAY MATCHES.

The Hawera "A" team spent a very pleasant afternoon on the Manaia ground yesterday. The wicket was hardly as good as the visitors expected, while the outfield was rough. Hobday was in the best form for Manaia, and showed some very nice strokes. Horton batted nicely, and was unfortunate to lose his wicket in the way he did. His bowling was also good, but he had no luck. Worrall -made his runs in dashing style. The team were entertained to afternoon tea by lady friends of the Manaia Club, which was much appreciated. Following are the scores: MANAIA. Hobday, c Johnson, b Tiddy 40 Bairstow, run out 2 i Maunsell, b Atkin 11 |H. Whalen, b Tiddy ...: 1 IC. Whalen, c Hostick, b Worrall ... 11 Miller, b.

The Hawera B team went to Normanby, where they were most hospitably entertained by the newlyformed club there. The ground and the wicket were not too good, but the Normanby players are - very enthusiastic, and working bees hope to put the playing area into shape as soon as possible., The afternoon was, however, a very pleasant one, and the Hawera players came back full of good reports of the fine time they had spent. They desire to thank the ladies for the way in which they catered for the teams. Hawera made 58 (Lay 22, Vinmcombe 10), to which^ Normanby replied with 25 (Linn 8, Taylor 7 not out) and 43 (Atkin 14, Laurent 9, and Stacey 8). In their second innings Hawera made 17 for the loss of two wickets. Slingsr, Taylor, Le Fleming, and Stacey secured the Hawera wickets. Franklin, Sargent, and Muir took the Normanby wickets in the first innings; in tbe second Vinnicombe, Campi, Lay, Muir, Sargent and Silson shared the hon.urs. Normanby have invited Hawera to an all day match at Normanby on Monday.
