records the doughty deeds of .Kent and Surrey in days gone by, was the scene of another thrilling match between these two countries during the last three days, culminating in a Kent victory by 215 runs only a few minutes before close of play.
Cricket in some of its best aspects was seen in the course of the match, Kent, ten runs in ar- rears on the first innings, set about the Surrey bowling until it had been reduced to impotence and the Hop county had at least made themselves safe from defeat. After that came Freeman. Bowling with marked skill, he tied the Surrey batsmen up in knots and made possible a dramatic Kent victory, the Inst Surrey batsman being sent back with only a few minutes spare.

Apart from the fitting climax, there were several distinctive performances. Gover, opened up big possibilities for Surroy when he dismissed Kent in their first visit to the crease for 251. His share was to capture 6 wickets for 82 runs.
HOBBS TO THE RESCUE. Surrey, however, did not make the most of their opportunity, and but for Hobbs would have made a pretty sorry reply. As it was, thanks to the former England batsman, who hit up 101, the vial- tors scored 261, leading by ten on the first innings.
Kent batting was of a vastly different calibre In the return visit. Leslie Ames and Lestie Todd, two of the youngsters of the team, set about their task of scoring plenty of runs with res freshing abandon and vigour. Both topped the century mark before dismissal, Ames scoring 137 and Todd-121-It-enabled Kent to apply the closure at 377 for 6, leaving Surrey to score 368 to win.
In view of the time at their dis-i posal it was an impossible task.
