SUBURBAN MATCHES

SECOND SERIES COMMENCED FIRST CENTURY OF SEASON HONOUR FOR N. GOLDSWORTHY Conditions were ideal at the Domain on Saturday, when tho Auckland City and Suburban Cricket Association commencod the second scries of matches in its senior grade competition. The wickets woro in good order, and the outfield faster than usual. Tho first century of tho season was scored by N. G. Goldsworthy, who made 117 for lI.V. against Mount Roskill. He reached his hundred with a big hit for six. R.V. appears to have a good chance of gaining full championship points from Mount Roskill. R. C. Aickin, one of the most promising colts in the competition, played a splendid innings for Mount Albert Grammar Old Hoys against Ponsonby. Mount Albert scored 152, of which Aickin knocked up H 6. Ponsonby started well, scoring 50 for the loss of one wicket. Green Lane was dismissed for 164 against Harbour Board, which showed good form in scoring 63 for the loss of ono wicket. The cricket was not ko bright as usual, bowlers having a decided advantage on wiokets which should have produced larger scores. A feature of the day's cricket -was the splendid wicketkeeping of F;. Fverson, Ponsonby, who dismissed five Mount Albert! batsmen. MOUNT ALBERT DISAPPOINTS ATCRIN THE STAR BATSMAN With the exception of Aickin, who made 80. Mount Albert disappointed against Ponsonby. The colts showed promise in their first match, and were expected to extend moro seasoned teams. Most of the batsmen on Saturday were troubled with Broberg's spin bowling. The Ponsonby captain subdued the batsmen after Aickin was dismissed. His six wickets for 35 was a good performance.

The honours of the' game, however, went to Aickin, who knocked up 86 in 78 minutes. Ho played attractive cricket, scoring most with forceful drives past mid-on. His defence was particularly sound. Aickin hit ten fours. Cantlay, 23, played a useful innings. Evcrson gave a clean display behind the wickets. Ho caught two and stumped three. The spin bowlers, Broberg and Kobertshaw, benefited by Everscn's smart work. 10. Masters and Lewis opened Ponsonby's first innings. Tho lastnamed was bowled by Butler for 11, while Masters was unbeaten for Scores: — MOUNT ALBERT.—First Innings R. C. Aickin, c. Everson, b Robertshaw 60 A. E. Hehden, lhw. b Bennett . . . . 3 E. S.

The attack was frequently changed and few batsmen settled down to play confidently. Gedyo, 21, and Gillespie, 31, gave Green Lane a good start, and Hie veteran, Kerr, figured in the role of a big hitter. Ho knocked up 43 in 16 lTiinutcs before being stumped by Wetherill. Kerr hit eight fours. Tomlinson shaped well for ]9. Good batting by Hreese, 30, and 1!. Stalhvorthy, 28, carried Harbour Hoard's score to G3 for the loss of one wicket.
