Alloo-resumed the innings -for University. Play was lively. The batsmen did not lose any runs between the wioketa. A. W. Alloo forced the pace, and after a chandeless innings for 67 was clean bowled by. Casey., ,This, partnership , realised 102 runs-f Caiwty.’.whp was bowling extremely, well, inade snort work of the next six batsmen. The total then read eight wickets for 196, and University were one man short. Barney O’Shea filled .the-breach, and with ■H. G. Alloa managed to knock off the required runs before the. latter was caught. He .-batted' practically- the , whole afternoon for his 94 runs,, and did not give a ohhnco. The last wicket • realised 51 runs, and gave University a two-point win. Edwards, although he did not get any wickets, kept a perfect length. Torrance also bowled well, but the wicket was in favour of the batsmen.

MOBNINGTON; t ' This match was resumed on the North Ground „on Saturday afternoon. In their finst and only innings, Albion had ” made 180 rune, to which Momington responded with 65. With 6 runs on the date A. Haig and Holdemesa resumed Momington’s second innings, to the bowling of Carlton and Shepherd; but it was for the most part a procession from and back to the pavilion. Carlton soon found a length, and a spot also from which the bolls shot, and most of the batsmen contented themselves with trying to place the hat in front of the ball, and too frequently dropping it just after the ball had passed. Catto was the only one to open his shoulders, and for a time he made things merry, hitting six fours in succession, all at the expense of Shepherd, who failed to find his length. l He made 29 before Carlton found a weak spot inhis defence. Carlton's fine average—eight wickets for 17 runs —was well deserved. A coincidence was that four out of his eight victims each scored two runs. The. innings dosed for 89 runs, leaving Albion victors by an innings and 26 runs. Following are the scores:— Amiok. First* innings ... ... ... _ _ _ 186 Mornxxgtox.
