MANIOTOTO COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP. The return match between Patearoa and Jsaseby-in the second.round of the Mauiototo County championship was played at Ivaseby on Saturday. The weather was beautiful, though the sun was a trifle hot For some of the payers. The shade afforded hy the surrounding trees and the importance of the fixture attracted one of tho largest orowds seen at a district match for some time. Both sides were represented by their strongest available players the only notable absentee being Fitzgerald, tho ex-Australian, from the Patearoa ranks. .Shortly after 11 Naseby took tho field, Chimside and W. Johnston being the first of the -visitors to bat. The former, after making 8, foil a victim to Boddmgton and his partner was soon after well taken in the slips by Lawer.. With the advent of Cambridge and Wilson tho score rapidly mounted, necessitating n change in the bowling. Cambridge, after making 25 in very confident style, cut ono of-Marshall's hard to cover, whero Jamea seemed it. Schreik did not remain long, and Gray, after making three boundaries, one of which landed in the middle of tho adjoining street, was smartly taken by Hilton from'a fast one by Horswell, who was bowling splendidly. Wilson and M'Dowell played steadily, but tho -captain, failing (o negotiate a good' one from Horswell,' had to retire, and a few balls later M'Dowcll, who had shown good form for his score of 12, had his wickets displaced by Hilton. Johnston was smartly stumped by Boddington after making 6, and the other wickets falling rapidly the innings closed for 81. Horswell took four wickets for 10 runs and D. Marshall four for 38. After lunch Hilton and James started batting for Nasoby, but as the bowling of Grey and Schreik wa* good the play was steady. After making 8 the centurion of last match was well taken by Chimside. Malcolm was the incomer, but a fast breakback following two wides nonplussed this usually reliable batsman. Boddington filled the vacancy, but soon lost James, who was caught by Eirk after putting together 11. The running out of tlw ex-interprovineial player after making 5, and five wickets falling in quick succession, created quite a consternation in tho home camp. D. Marshall and Lawer, however, became associated, and, scoring off nearly every ball, worked up some excitement by eradually approaching the visitors' total. When within 5 of the coveted number smart fielding resulted in Lawer getting run out for a serviceable 11, D. Marshall being not out for a well-hit 28. Schreik (five wickets for 37) and 1 Grev (two for 26) secured tho wickets. The fielding of the Patearoa team was splendid and their quick- returns responsible for t.hreo players being run out. The second innings of Patearoa concluded for 60, onljf three of i.he team being able to do anything with the bowling of Iloddineton and O'Driscoll. Grey made 19, which included a couple of big hits out o! the ground. M'Dowell (17) and Cambridge played well for their runs, but tho others with the exception of Johnston, who pluckily endeavoured to play for time, did not make any stand. Boddington's average was eight for 29 nnd O'Briscoll's two for ?,. With 65 runs to win, Boddington and D. Marshajl opened for Naseby, but the latter was caught after making 3. K. Marshall followed, but was bowled after receiving a severe knock on tho knee. Horswell joined his captain, and these two playing splendidly ?opn loft, no doubt of the result, and. carryimr Naseby's total to 63 with scores of 25 and 33 respectively enabled that club to win a keenly contested gaino by eight wickets. Chirnsido secured the, two wioEets for 13. Patraroa's Holding throughout was first class, and much superior to that of their opponents. Waipiata (83) beat Ranfurljr (67). Naseby having won all their games and only another (against Waipiata) to play, must win the county premiership for this season. Patearoa, last season's champions, with two defeats, come next. A Christchurch telegram states that the weather was perfect for Saturday's cricket. Sydenham met Midland A, running up 319 for six wickets (Patrick 78, Bennett 71, Love 41, Kinvig 39 not out, Wigley 37). Lancaster Park made 172 against United (Orchard 38, Barrett 25); United lost seven wickets for 87 (Ollivier 29 not out).. Midland B made 138 against Lancaster Park B (Hornev 36, Monsell 36).
