CHRIST'S. COLLEGE v. BOYS' HIGH SCHOOL. The first grade competition match between Christ's College and Boys' High School, which was started on October'2B, but, owing to rain, could not be continued on the following Saturday, was concluded yesterday afternoon at Hagley Park, in excellent cricket weather, and on a good wicket. Christ's College had. a lead of 98 runs in the first innings. High School's second innings started well, the first two wickets producing 169 runs, but after that a "rot" set in, and the innings was finished at 220, leaving Christ's College to get 123 runs to win. College got them at a cost of two wickets, and so scored a three-point win. Details:— , BOYS' HIGH SCHOOL. First innings .. 70 Second lujiings.. I). W. Reese c Rich b Matson .. .. 22 0- A.
