A HOLIDAY GAAIE

WICKETS FALL FAST.

(From Special Correspondent of United Press Association with the team).

(Received this day at 10 a.m.) LONDON, August 10

Twenty-three wickets fell in a day of'sensational cricket when New Zealanders met Sir Julian Calm’s eleven. The wicket was exceptionally fast and good. The batsmen on both sides were beaten by exceptional bowling. Cowie and Carson bowled with such fire that five home wickets fell for twentyseven. The whole side were out before lunch.

Dempster was included after the team was first announced, but he was dismissed cheaply. Against the bowling of Crisp and Alorkel, the South Airican test player, and Aluclge, the Australian, New Zealand's wickets also tumbled quickly New Zealand’s lead was small, but Cowie again bowled magnificently in Sir Julian Calm’s second innings. Roberts after a. month’s illness, bowled without distress, and may play 1 in the test match. CAHN’S ELEVEN—Ist. Innings.

TEST PROSPECTS.

WEATHER UNCERTAIN

NOTTINGHAM, August 11

Page, Vivian. Dunning,' Hadlee and Donnelly are testing for tae test match.

The Nottingham match is part of a festival arranged by S.r Julian Calm, to aid the funds of the Harlow Wood Hospital. There are to' be three twoday matches between Calm s team and teams representing Ireland, New Zealand and Scotland, at a private ground at Loughborough. A feature is the engagement of famous military bands to play at the lunch and tea intervals.

The Welsh Guards’ Band will provide selections at the New Zealanders’ match, the Coldstream Guards at the match with Ireland, and the Horse Guards at the match with Scotland. The tourists are the griests of Sir Julian Calm, while they are in Nottingham. Fames strained his side during a try-out at the nets yesterday at Chelmsford. He is playing to-day against Middlesex, and he hopes to play in the test. Robins was struck by a bumper from Cover in a match with Surrey, but lie probably will be fit lor the test.

Rain fell at London last night, and the weather is uncertain for the test.

Dunning was among those who took the Master of Arts degree on Degree Day at Oxford. The New Zealanders last night received an'official intimation that they will return via Australia, playing matches against South Australia. Victoria and New South Wales.
