LANSDOWNE v. RED STAR, An excellent and faultless display of batting by E. Perry (Stars) was a feature of the Star-Lansdowne match, which was concluded at the High School ground. Stars were dismissed for 92 in their first innings the previous Saturday, while Lansdowne carried their first innings score to 2(14. Due chiefly to a forceful display bv Perry, Stars were successful in playing out time in their second strike, which yielded 208 runs. Lansdowne thus secured a first innings win. Details:— RED STAR.
