SPORTING.
(Notes by Sir Moared.) Nominations for the Dunedin Cup and Other important events at the D.J.C. s Autumn meeting close this (Friday) evening. It is safe to say that a number of Southland owned horses will have engagements made for them. The Southland R.C.’s offices have been removed from Esk street to No. 0 federal Buildings, Dee street, a much more convenient and central site. Here Mr Saunders will attend to the business ot the S.K.C., Southland Trotting Club, Wairio K.C.. etc. _ Stratagem shows signs of being wttn foal to Glenculloch, so it may be lake.i for granted that the daughter of Nelson has not long to go as an active participant in turf competition. A. H. Wilson did not stay to rule Obsono in his final effort at Trentham, which accounts for the fact that the name of K. Hatch was telegraphed through as the successful horseman on Wednesday. After riding the son ot Obligado to victory on Monday Wilson left "for the South, as he had a number of engagements to fulfil at the Tapanui meeting. , . . A number of patrons of the outside enclosure at Gore took a mean advantage of the Club during the time the injured jockey. W. Fletcher, was being carried Into the bird-cage. As the stretcherbearers headed for the inner enclosure these people fell in behind the ratnei sad procession and were thus enabled to pass tlie gatemen, who probabH thought thev had been assisting with the fallen horses and jockeys. An admission fee was thus evaded, and it it ill not surprise readers to learn that some of those who were guilty of this petty action were quite able to pay the usual lawn entrance charge. Some people would take advantage of a householder’s death to purloin from his wood pile. Trainer C. Church has under his charge at Lumsden a gelding known as Glowworm, a son of Silkworm and a Vi olverIne mare. Fie is very green as yet, but he managed to win the Flying Slakes on Wednesday when vigorously ridden by Pankhurst. This horse looks as if he will take some keeping on his legs, but Church is not hard on his charges and this will be all in favour of this racing recruit.
Abusive, winner of the Lumsclen Handicap and Farewell Handicap on V.’ednesday last, has had a somewhat chequered career. He was bred in Hawke’s Bay and purchased by Mr L- C. Hazlett, of Dunedin, who, however, could do no good with him, either as a fiat - racer or hurdle jumper, and he was sold to a goldfields partnership. He even failed to earn his oats at the Lakes and it is not so long ago that a half-share in him was parted with on the purchaser paying for seven or eleven drinks. The number has escaped memory at the present time. Abusive next turned up in Invercargill, but G. Cameron could get no good out of him, and he again changed hands. At this period he had lost whatever reputation he had ever owned, and it was quite a surprise to find him getting on the winners’ list at the Pine Bush D.R.C.’s gathering recently. He improved on this form by becoming the champion of the Mounted Rifles’ camp at Wyndham last week, and followed this up by giving Lloyd two winning mounts at Lumsden. His success, in a measure, was due to his cleverness in getting round corners, a game at which he showed himself to be a past master It is rather a remarkable thing that so many horses cast off from Mr L. C. Hazlett’s team have won races in Southland this season, but some of them are far from valuable animals. Abusive is a son of Sir Lancelot and Tirade.
It may not be generally known that the Southland R.O. keep a special weapon and ammunition handy on race clays in case the necessity arises to destroy a horse. This has been the ease for quite a number of years, but, fortunately the gun has never been required, and it is to be hoped it never will. It is understood that the Gore R.C. will actively embark upon an extensive scheme of racecourse improvements before next season's racing dates roil round. Mr XV. F. James, the well-known totalisator proprietor, has for some time past been engaged in drawing up plans to account for the laying off of the enclosures, buildings, etc. Mr James will probably model bis ideas on those which he so cleverly designed for the Southland R.C.
Jockey J. Olsen has come back to form with a rush, and on the first day of the Tapanui gathering lie won the first three races on the programme with Portfire. Dady Margaret. and Alfroda respect;voly. Olsen rides well and is not likely to want for employment for the remainder of the season. The writer has found o.uite a demand for names for youns stock existing of late, and the following have been suggested, but the owners concerned will bo only too pleased if more suitable cognomens were furnished by readers taking an interest in nomenclature. Colt b.y Canrobert (Soult) from Turret (Sant Dario—Minaret), name to be short, suggested “Spire,” as it claims relation with Turret and Minaret. A black filly by Canrobert from Umbra (Clar.ranald — Black Cloud) might be called "Sombra," a character in the opera of "Path .Jones." P'or a colt or filly by Canrobert —Tugela. the Portuguese title of “Tudela” would be appropriate. A colt by Canrobetf from Follicle could be called “Colborne,” after an English general who opposed Soult in the Peninsula War. A son of Canrobert’s has already been termed •■Colbert.” after one of Soult’s generals. TBOTTINCr IN CHBISICSDBCH. (Per United Press Association). CHRISTCHURCH, January 26.

It is quite possible that the points, though not the positions in the premiership standing will be changed material! v as the result of matches played on Wednesday. The I.C.C.—Bluff game has not yet advanced far enough for a statement to be made that the advantage lies with either side; but Invercargill has a chance, with determined attack, to lower the Bluff colours. In the Appleby-Waikiwi match the advantage undoubtedly lies with Waikiwi. Invercargill’s innings against the Bluif was a close thing to being a collapse. When Miles joined Bannorm.in there were five wickets down for 53 runs, and these two nearly ‘ doubled the score before the next wicket went. The score, to show where the runs were made, may be set out thus: Bannerman 50, Allies (in) 22. Kavanagh (inn out) 15, eight others 34. Till he had reached 40 Bannerman played excellent cricket, keeping a close eye on anything good that was sent down, but dealing decisively with loose stuff. Then he started to take and give chances, trusting to the wind to upset the fieldsmen so far as skiers were concerned. The only reasonably easy chance was a mishit up the wicket on the leg side, which the wicket-keeper chased, but allowed to sljp through the gloves.
Miles worried the Bluff bowlers throughout. Ills stolid defence was impregnable, and while his style of playing with both legs behind the bat kept up hopes of a leg-before decision, his accurate judgment of pace and knack of keeping the ball down dashed these hopes. The batsman’s innings was an invaluable one to his side.
Kavanagh knocked up his fifteen runs in confident style and without a mistake. It is probably a fortunate thing for Bluff that he lost his wicket in a run-out, for lie looked like settling down to score big. The run-out by the way, was a very close thing.
The question of the bump ball was very much in evidence during the innings. Woods drove a ball back to A. Crockett, and an appeal was made to the umpire at the wicket-keeper’s end (which was wrong), who said “out.” The umpire who had the say, however, gave it “not out” —a bump ball. Woods, by the way, was dismissed next ball le" before. When Ihuinermun was caught at third man, off a low chop stroke, a number of onlookers murmured “bump ball,” but the umpire decisively culled “out.”
Stewart, of Bluff, may claim some credit for the fact that in Invercargill’s nings of 130 runs there was not a single extra.
Before the call of time Bluff lost two wickets for eighteen runs, A. Crockett being dismissed by a sharp point catch, and E. Bradshaw being bowled off his pads. McKenzie, who went to the pitch with Crockett, shaped well and gives promise of making trouble for the oilier side.
Don Hamilton is included in the Bluff eleven, his injured leg being sufficiently recovered to enable him to bat, though a substitute in the field has to be provided.
Although E. Ward dismissed Harris early with a record break-back, Waikiwi made a big start against Appleby, the first two wickets putting on 65 runs. As the game progressed, however, the added runs between the fall of the each wicket decreased till five wore down for 113. Then Forde and Frank Fraser made a stand which took the score up 27 runs, but a sorry tail-off followed, the side being out for the fair score of 155.
George Fraser again sustained his club reputation by knocking up another half-century, which included a number of big hits. It was from a long offdrive that lie was caught, the wind holding the ball back from the boundary, where Walker brought off a good catch.
J. McNeece also batted well, and was going strong, when, in an endeavour to get Crockett away with ins favourite leg stroke he got his pads in front. Kingsland, Forde, and Frank Fraser playpd steadily for their double-figure totals.
Wesney made a very confident opening for Appleby, and 30 was on the board in short order. At this stage, however, the desire to score in boundary hits overcame Wesney's prudence, and a bit; straight smash was well caught, at the second try, by Reid in the long-field. Then came a collapse. Ward was bowled first ball; Irwin after an over cocked a rising ball up to the third man; Richards after a short stay was clean bowled; Poole touched a rising ball (similar to that which dismissed Irwin) and it went to point, standing wide; and Walker was bowled in going for a big hit. Deride and Washer looked like making tilings light, till a smart return from the field caused the former's dismissal. Waikiwi. in starting, had two wickets down fur 65; Appleby lost eight wickets for 65.
The previous week on the same wicket Appleby put up 237 runs for eight wickets. In the match against Tasmania at Launceston, Pegier (South Africa) made 50 runs in fourteen minutes. He .hit two sixes, seven fours, and two threes. AMONG THE JFNiORS. The following table shows the positions of the various teams in the competition : —• Plvd. Won. Lost. Unfid. Pts. Apple!)v A lo i 8 | 1 | 1 | 16 V..M.C.A. “A”| 10 | 8 j 1 I 1 j 16 I.C.C i 10 | 5 1 4 1 1 I 10 High Schooli K» j 4 j G ( S Y.M.C.A “11“ 10 i 3 | . | 1 | 6 Y.M.C.A. (Riggar street) and I.C.C. grounds I Esk street) were utilised for Wednesday afternoon’:; games. The heavy rain showers which fell early in the day had little or no deteriorating effects; in fact the Y.M.C.A. ground was in tip-top condition. This is without doubt the best ground provided locally. The outfield, for one tiling, cannot be surpassed and the ball always travels to Hie fieldsman with amir.'icy. Thus the “nastiness'’ of uneven outfields which characterises most other .grounds is not in evidence at Biggar street. The fieldsman’s task is all Hie more pleasurable as a result. I.C.C.'s asphalt wicket and surroundings stand out in striking contrast to Y.M.C.A.'s. The wicket is decidedly “humpy” and the host, as well as the worst, of hatsrnen always show evidences of being somewhat mesmerised when taking strike there. Long grass, to a very marked extent, hampers the work of the fieldsman besides limiting many of a batsman's scoring strokes to a minimum —the ball lodging in the grass, with the result that runs are reduced. Hamilton (Y.M.C.A. A) now appears to have got into his scoring stride and promises to be well up <>n tiie average list before the season terminates. When all the prominent scorers (in the earlier matches) had failed against I.C.C. “Arcliie” still kept lo his guns and out of a total of 87 in the first innings, his 2'j reus proved in valuable. Donaldson (19) was also well to the fore, and in company with Martin (13) and Hamilton made up Y.M.C.A.’s trio of double figure scorers.
A total of 87 runs did not appear a g-eat task for I.C.C. to overcome, but the majority of the batsmen fell easy victims to the bowling of Stanway, who secured the excellent average of 8 wickets for 20 runs. Brookes (19), Brown (17). and Vickery (10) were the only batsmen to do really anything—the remaining seven averaging but two runs apiece. As time precluded both teams from completing a second innings, V.M. C.A.'s lead of 27 runs on the first innings thus earned them a two-point win over their opponents. Y.M.C.A. batted ten met in the second innings, and had knocked together 107 runs before being disposed of. Stanway and Raines were responsible for 72 runs out of the total, while Marlin (16) again notched double figures. Eightyeight runs among these three batsmen proves that the remainder must have failed to “make good.’’
Stanway and Raines have been very inconsistent scorers in Y.M.C.A. A.’s ranks so far this season, but their figures of 41 and 31 respectively notched against I.C.C. this week will considerably improve their position on the list of their club’s averages for 1910-11. When I.C.C. followed on after the completion of Y.M.C.A.’s second turn at the batting crease they had (at the drawing of stumps) made appreciable strides to overhaul their opponent’s lead of 131 runs. Four wickets were down for 44 runs, with Dewar (31, not out) still batting well.
Wesney and Sutherland had quite a “field day,” howling for Appleby against Y.M.C.A. “B” in the latter’s first innings and the whole eleven was disposed of in short order for 20 runs. No fewer than seven of the Y.M.C.A. batsmen failed to make a single run. Of the remaining four, one (Rea) ran Into double figures with 10, the second secured a single, the third a couple of 3’s while the fourth placed a brace and a single and was then bowled by Wesney. Sutherland sent down 7 overs (two being maidens) and secured 3 wickets at a cost of 4 runs apiece. Wesney’s figures are considerably better. They read: 8 overs, 5 maidens, 8 runs, 7 wickets.
Appleby passed Y.M.C.A.’s total with 3 wickets clown; the innings finally terminating at 104. T. Pellowe (23 not out) gave the best batting exhibition in Appleby’s ranks. Going in at the eighth wicket clown for 68 runs he saw the score mount steadily to 91 before losing his partner. Then for the tenth wicket Pellowe put on about a dozen runs before Gilfedder was clean bowled bv Battin. A. Pellowe (23), Prendcrgast (15) and Smith (13) were the other double figure recorders. Thirty-eight runs were put together by Y M.C.A. in their second innings. The team as a whole did better work than in Us first appearance at the wickets, but still none of the bat-men was at home and failed to get settled down to scoring work. Appleby played out time, losing 1 wickets for 69 runs. (Sutherland, not out, 19, A. Pellowe retired 15, Prendergast 15). Included in Sutherland’s quota was a gigantic pull across past-mid-on which produced seven runs! The Y.M.C.A. bowling weakened perceptibly in the closing stages of the play when no less titan seven different bowlers were put on.
Games for next week are; I.C.C. v. Appleby and Y.M.C.A. “A” v. High School; Y.M.C.A. “B”. a bye.
Kirwan 6 for 31 and Doogin 2 for 4 were I.C.C.’s most successful bowlers in the first innings of the I.C.C. —Y.M. C,A. “A” game. Many of the prominent Y.M.C.A. batsmen wore secured too for practically insignificant totals. Junior elevens are. as a whole, well supplied with bowling material at least half a dozen, could be enumerated, quite capable of securing wickets in the best of company. BIBLE SHOOTING.
