Thanks mainly to a very fine exhibition of cricket by Captain Gray, the R.E. and ladian Army were enabled to defent the Civil Service at Happy Valley on Satur- day. The Civil Service, batting first, were only able to put up 100 runs. Witchell played good cricket and Syme Thomson slogged in his usual free man- ner, giving a couple of chances just before he got out. Edwards' slow breaks proved destructive, for he captured seven wickets) at a fraction over 7 runs apieca
Gray gave a chance early in his in nings, but from that time onward did what be liked with the bowling,, bringing off some very clean drives on the leg aide. Middlemas played vigorous cricket for 32 runs. The Civil Service score was overtaken after the fall of the third wicket, and the Military team won by seven wicket Scores
