The younger Quaita, who came from the ground staff at Sussex with his elder brother, Walter, whon Warwickshire, suceeded to in ducing the old Sussex batsman to qualify for the Midland county, is certainly one of the most timiaalive batsmen playing in Arst-olsas oriokat ta-day, etending on ho does not moro thei 526. din. Ao tuo wicket ho has quite an onay por, and is not particular in taking guard and getting biosolt dear of the wirket, He has ne gat fancy for walking in front of the sups to avoid the possible consequenoss of bronking ball, oforting to show the majority of a bowler's deliveries the face of a very lon straight bal, Thère io nó lack of variefy žur his fie strokes, for he safe and drives with equit facility draws "a bull to ring very prettily and keeps them "on the earpat" with great pare, in addition to the orthodox strokes, he car pull a short pitched ball to the with fine parision, and if to onoe stope out to a slow bowfer this is the hit he is variably brings off. To so him to most advantage à bard, true wicket and fast bowling are needed, and thes, if he so wills it, he can score na rapidly at anyone. But bei has bean gradzally ashier. ing a Batoriety as a sticker, and has more than once provoked criticism from members of the samo side by reason of his lack of aggressivenessmontary routine for the use of Elco- when reine have been badly needed. In the field ke has fow superiors at covor print, picking up and atorning to the wicket with splendid ac. curacy, and in the opinion of actis of his où- mirers, he has few superiors, an an all-round cricketer, for in addition to his qualifications alevedy mentioned, he ban bowl a decent bull, with a bondency to overdo the "off" theory. Possessing a cheerful temperament, he is the poreonification of diffidence, and modesty, and Ean won his way to the front by sheer merit. Althongh a "stcns-waller to a certain extent, Le has a graceful style for one so lacking in physical advantages, une it says a good deal for his patience and perseverance that in spite of his 3ft. ix. he is able to play as correct a de-- fensive gamo na probably any bateman Dow before the public.

PREPARING FOR WINTER
Although we have yet to get through some of the most important Extures of the crickot sea- Ron, one loading football organisation are on- gaged insetting their houses in order and trotting | out their trains for preliminary canters. which there will be eight montits of the winter pas time to touch upon at intervals, to not pro pose to touch open the prospects of any of the big clubs. Upon the anbjoul of wagte, however, it is pleasing to learn that some of the managere are inolized to retrench, inasmuch as big wage shoot does not necessarily main assured givers. Despite the enormous Kumé - apent laat senaan by. Everton and Aston Villa in wages, amounting to £5,787 and £5,127 xe apectively, they finished fourth and seventh in the League, whilst Sheffold United and Sunder land, who finished first and second, spent £2,973 and 22,794. There are other interesting statistios jat pablished, but I give these just to show what a costly affair modern football has bosome. So much so, indeed, that both Preston North End and Bury suffered sarlons losses. At the end
