OLD BOYS V. KAMURA.

The aboro gamcy was continued on Saturday at the Park and resulted in an easy win for Kamura by seven wickets. Old Boys with 3 for 8.9 continued their second innings, and reached 161, Brooke carrying his score to 73 by good cricket. He batted the whole of the innings, getting out only with the last man at the wickets. Hargreavos, a promoted junior, secured 5 for 16 in six overs. Kamura requiring 137 to win had two down for 10, but Pike and McGavin then added 71 and Pikci and Mead put on the remaining runs. Pike scored 72 not out, and although badly dropped twice, put in some good batting. The Old Boys' fielding, with one.'or two exceptions, was frightful, and seldom has ' worse been seen on tho Park. Seven or eight chances (mostly easy) wore dropped and tlie ground fielding and returning were atrocious. The batting at timos was very slow, especially when tho bowling was also slow and j at one time 10 overs produced only 12 runs.
