The South Canterbury Cricket Association’s competitions were continued . on Saturday in very pleasant weather. Towards the close of play however, a boisterous southerly wind made itself : felt. At the Rectory, Zingari scoured a commanding advantage in their game with I Old Bovs, and a win for them appears |to be a foregone conclusion. At tho j Park, Celtic gained a first innings lead of 26 over Timaru, leaving the game [in a very interesting position for re- • sumption next Saturday. High School I met Geraldine at Geraldine, but the | scores in this game were not available. j . TIMARU v. CELTIC, j This game was not commenced until j 3 o’clock, the delay being due to- neither ! side having taken the precaution to provide stumps. Batting first, Timaru compiled an even century, the result mainly of contributions of 29 from extras, a similar number from Hudson, and 15 from Berry. Harding 5 for 22 and Kane 3 for 19 accounted for I nearly all the wickets. Celtic made a good start, putting up 60 before the I third wicket fell, but thereafter the j advantage rested with the bowlers, and the innings closed for 126 (Austin 13, Kane 24, Annear 26, Sullivan 20). Hudson 5 for 48 was the mainstay of the attack. Scores: TIMARU. First Innings.
