CRICKET.

Chbist Oolleob 0.0. v. Gebaldine 0.0. i A match between the above clubs was j played on Saturday lust. The match was delayed somewhat by the. heavy downpour of c rain. Although it cleared off sufficiently to ' allow the match to be commenced rain con- ' tinued to fall at intervals throughout the day, * thereby causing the game to bo frequently ' interrupted. At best the wicket was rery ' •wet and greasy ; but towards the end of the I game it resembled a mud puddle, and — as I might be expected — played very dead. The ] visitors elected to send the home team to bat. ( Studholme and W. H. Hargreaves, and at a i later stage, D. Wood, bowling. The innings ( was a short one, Ward 13 and Briacoo 11 | being the only batsmen who reached double , fignrcs. The score of tho visitors reached , 61, extras 13, giving them a substantial ad- , vantage over their opponents. Pearpoint and Bred Fish bowled for Geraldine. Tho latter ' succeeded m taking six wickets, and the ' former three. Dr K»h and the Boy. J l . A. ] Hare umpired for Oeraldine and Christ ! College respectively. General regret was ox- 1 pres»ed tbst the day was not favorable for < the match, whioh is now regarded as an ] annual fixture. j The following aj» the tcorw :— t

A match between the Timaru C.C. and Christ College eleven took place on the Timaru Cricket Club's ground yesterday, and was won by the local eleven with live wickets to spare.
