OLD ROYS V. KAMURA

The above ganut in the final round was commenced on Saturday. The wicket had been too liberally watered and for some time was very wet. Old Boys batted first, but totalled only 77,' Johnston's big breaks playing havoc. Tlui first wicket put on 37 by vet •• careful play, but there were only four double figures. Kamura used only slow bowlers throughout the innings. Kamura reached 102, but in this case there were only two double, figures. The seventh wicket fell at 60, but with a good deal of luck the eighth put on 33. The wicket was nowpretty dry, owing to heavy wind, ami Cook« and McCabe opening Old Boys spcond innings 25 behind, made things pretty lively, ami put on >li) by very free batting for the first wicket. The first ten overs yielded 34. against 14 in the first innings. Old Hoys have now 89 for threo wickets, or 64 lead, but they will probably be throe short jiext Saturday.
