Batting again yesterday Wanganui's second innings closed shortly after the luncheon adjournment, the High School team winning by a decisive margin. The weather was brighter than on Tuesday and the wicket wore well. Wanganui, faced with a very big task, did not begin .too well in tlieir second venture, but their skipper, one of the opening batsmen, was playing the rock though without anyone to stay with him. Four wickets wero crown for 24 and five for 29. Then Joyce joined Whiting and they carried tho total to 74 before Joyce got too far over to one from Anderson and was bowled behind his legs. Tkero were seven wickets down at lunch time and tho remaining added 35 runs, the innings closing for 111. Whiting, a very sound bat, knocked up 43 and he gave the impression he would have made many more runs had he been just a little bit more aggressive. Five bowlers were tried by High School and Audcrsou, with 6 for 25, was right on the job all the time. Detailed scores arc as under: — P.N.B.H.S. First Innings 260 WANGANUI TECHNICAL.
