SATURDAY'S CRICKET WAS THE BEST SEEN
IN A LONG TIME
SAYS "OWZAT”
Local League Cricket enjoyed one of its most successful week-ends in years on Saturday, when practically every match in the First Division claimed its own highlights.
It was not flawless, scientifle cricket that was the main contribution to the success of these games. In fact cow-shots, short and full tosses abounded in a few of these games, but it was the zest and enthusiasm with which every team went for the runs and the wickets to force the issue which made the afternoon's cricket so enjoyable,
