BOWLERS' AVERAGES
BEING RUINED
EIGHTEEN CENTURIES IN THREE DAYS
SEVEN MATCHES PRODUCE OVER THOUSAND RUNS
BUT POPE TAKES TEN WICKETS
London, June 29,
COUNTY CRICKET bowlers are having a very lean
time these days and averages are being complétely ruined. The latest crop of first-class matches reveal some stupendous scoring feats, only two encounters pro- ducing less than 1000 runs.
Eighteen batsmen recorded centuries, Squires of Surrey getting two in one match, and Arnold topping the 200 mark. Pope of Derby stood out as the lone up-

Squires, the young Surrgy player in scoring two separate centuries, also had the satisfaction of knowing that he had compiled three such scores in successive Innings. Barling was decidely unlucky in not getting a couple of three-ligure scores out of the match, in the first innings he hit up 171 and failed to reach the 100 in the second inningu by two runs. For Oxford F. C. H. Chalk (130) and B. W. Hone (108) stood out prominently,
Surrey's totals were 455 for 9 ileclared and 272 for 4 declared. and Oxford responded with 487 and 105 for 4,
