DAY OF SLOW SCORING. HIGH SCHOOL GAIN ADVANTAGE. Local cricket enthusiasts have boon most unfortunate in respect to weather and ground conditions this season, and •Saturday found them again fa coil with uninviting conditions and wickets which played very uncertainly. As a result thoro wero few bright displays by tho batsmen, while tho rt.to of scoring was slow. In tho United-High School match the close of play for the day found tho latter eleven holding tho advantage, for after dismissing their opponents for 122, they replied witl 142 tor the loss of six wickots. Tho mulch on the lower wickot between I’almorston and Old Hoys did not reach such an advanced stage, tho former eleven having been at the wickets approximately three and a half hours for their 140 runs, to which Old Hoys replied with 47 for tho loss of two wickets.

Opening with Oliivor and Sandman, United, who had elected to take first, strike on winning tlio toss, coiuinenced promisingly enough when tho pair I urnislioit 25 helore being separated. However, matters then commenced to run badly and livo wickets were down for 47 when Penman and Milieu became associated to a.ld 45 for the sixth wicket, I'enmaii returning a. ball to Howard after placing 24 to his credit. Milieu played ton-eful cricket and lie topped the boundary lino oil two occasions and furnished four fours, when ho luted a bail from Hatch into tho hands of Lyno. The end then came quickly and the side woro all out for 122. Hy steady cricket K. Hatch and Lyno furnished 27 :.u High School's reply, when Lyno stepped out to a break delivery by J. Gallichau to have his hails lifted by Oliver, while nine runs later hesitation in a cad resulted in Hatch being sent back alter furnishing 22. Fletcher and 11. Hatch advanced the total to 61 at which stage the latter fell to a nice catch hy Sandman oil Jewett. Ouglov and Fletcher carried oil tho good work, but with another 25 runs added Fletcher lifted a ball to Mitchell at long-on and retired with a useful 32 to his credit. McYiear failed to stay, but Ongley and London carried the total to six runs beyonl their opponents’ score before Ongley was run out when essaying a short'singlo. Ongley had exercised much more patience than usual and his 58 runs came at a most opportune time. Tho drawing of stumps for the day found Loudon still carrying on with 22 to his credit, although the rate of scoring had slowed up. High School hold a promising position.

Palmerston found the wicket deceptive and their batsmen, with the pos- j sib'.e exception of Hollier. who had to ; resort to dogged if unattractive tac- | tics, failed against the attack of N. ; Galiiehan and Waldegravo and the : afternoon adjournment found them ! with seven wickets down for 78 runs. ’ Hollier having been at the wickets i two hours for his ALodd. The open- ' ing batsman failed to get anyone to I stsv with him any length of time until the" last man, Kells, entered. The pair showed plenty of enterprise in . their running between the wickets and they withstood the attack of the Old Boys trimdiexs until 5.25 when McKav beat Hoilier's defence. The total was then at 140. of which Hollier : furnished 64. his total including seven ; fours- While it was not a chance- j less innings, it was a very valuable one to the side. In the concluding stages 1 Hollies brightened up and was resneusible for the big majority of the Vi runs forthcoming from the partnership. _ | As in the preceding match, the • opening partnership of Heir and Mit'.en'wss short-lived, the former being beaten before he had scored, j O’Keefe replaced him and the new-! comer gradually overtook his partner and when he was beaten at 47 he had ! been responsible for 22 ot tee uutne-er. The match is thus at an interesting ; stage.
