SPORTS AND PASTIMES.

CRICKET.

SATURDAY’S MATCHES

There was perfect weather for the continuation of the senior and junior competition matches at Victoria Domain and Taruheru grounds on Saturday afternoon. Good scoring was done by United, Y.M.C.A., and laruheru senior elevens. Wanderers defeated Taruheru by over an innings, while United secured a win by 82 runs on the first innings over Y.M.G.A. Great interest centred in the junior match between Y.M.C.A. and Wanderers, but Y.M.C.A. held the upper hand throughout, and won easily with over an innings to spare. At Victoria Domain a diversion was created by the ground being invaded bv a couple of Red Cross canvassers, soliciting contributions* for the hospital. The playing fields were invaded, and play had to cease while the fair canvassers went round the teams in the field. The excuse that the players had left their change in their coats was met by an offer to collect from them, but- thi s had the effect of quickly unearthing contributions. On one of the junior grounds the lady canvassers were hardly treated with the courtesy that their humanitarian mission warranted.

SENIOR COMPETITION.

WANDERERS v. TARUHERU

These teams resumed their match at Taruheru on Saturday afternoon, in perfect weather. With six wickets down for 69, Tonks and McConnell continued Wanderers’ second innings. Runs came at a rapid rate, Taruheru’s score was soon passed. The innings closed for 203. Tonks gave a particularly fine display of batting for 93 (thrown out). He hit brilliantly all round the wicket, but his most prolific run-getting strokes were made to the on side. He used his feet well in getting out to tho slow howler, and kept all his strokes nicely along the carpet. He scored at a wonderful pace and had bad luck in being brilliantly thrown out by Lasker when well within sight of his century. McConnell (30) and McColl (16, not out) also batted well. Taruheru collapsed in their second innings, being all dismissed for 48. Wanderers thus won by the handsome margin of an innings and 47 runs. The following arc the scores: WANDERERS.—Ist Innings.
