When the third-wicket stand had put en 107 in two hours dve minutes, F. Lee, who required two runs to teach three figures, was 1.b.w at 174. For three and a half hours he defied the attack without }' offering a chance, his best hits be ing eight t'e. At tea the total was 191 for three wickets.

Wellard followed in. and treated the spectators to a glorious display of driving At one time he was rather wild in his method, but he seems now to have developed the real art of batting.

ANOTHER CENTURY BY

1 WYATT

A not-out century by R. E, S. Wyatthis second in the two matches played this season-was the feature of Warwickshire'a match with

Gloucestershire. Thanks to their captain's inspiring display, Warwickshire scored 238 in their first innings and, with the visitors losing three valuable wickets for 78 before stumps were drawn, ure 150 ruas ahead of Gloucestershire, who have sav wickets to fail.

After the interval Wyatt reached his 50 in just over an hour and a half, but he showed poor judgment between the wickets, and twice Dollery was nearly run out in re- sponding to his captain's appeal for short runs.

Wyatt continued to be Warwick shire's mainstay. Doilery wag bowled by an off-swinger at 151, the partnership for the Afth wic- ket having added 41 in as many minutes. Collin was stumped at 156, Cranmer run uut by Barnett at 189, and Buckingham and May. er were bw, at 191 and 210 re- spectively. This left Wyatt with 1.' runs to get for his second cen- tury in successive innings when Hollies, the last man, came in. The England captain, who had shown a very sturdy defence, de- monstrated his skill in nursing the bowltag and, while Hollies manfully kept up an end. Wyatt ran to three-gures just before tea-taken with the total 228 for nine, wickets,

The innings ended without ad- dition and in an unusual way. Wyatt played a ball from Ham- mond hard back to the bowler, who, with Hollies out of his ground to backing-up, deflected it on to the stumps. So Hollies was out. Wyatt took out his bat for 103 after batting three hours and a hall, during which time he gave no chance. His figures included seven 4's.

In spite of his three and a half, hours at the wicket, Wyatt lent his aid to the attack when Glouces tershire opened their reply, and, bowling an excellent length, he

did another splendid service to his county by getting "Barnett

Batting was not a strong point With the Cambridge University Freshmen yesterday, "and there was little evidence of any new ta- lent, at least in H. T. Bartlett's side, who, on a good wicket, were all out for 91. Only three pats- men reached double figures, Khana being the top-scorer with 19 no

out.

Two medium-paced

Dowlers. Heath and Hunt, who came on as first changes, took nine wickets between them. Hunt obtaining five for 26, and Heath our for 18. They each took two wickets in four overs, and Bartlett's side lost their first seven batsmen tot 28.

The failure of Bartlett's sice in their batting was made all the moré inexplicable by the ease and rapidity with which Parker's team scored their runs. In two hours, marked by bright batting. Parker's lost only two wickets while max- Ing 161

Tindall reached his 50 in seven- ty-five minutes, and Yardley made the same number in an hour. The partnership put an 115 in seventy- three minutes! Yardley then fall- ing to a catch at extra-cover, Tin- dal has so far hit twelve 4's, and Parker with nine wickets in

hand, are 70 runs on.
