The decision rested on the last match of the evening, when Collins and Guest were beaten by Sousa and Choy after a keen 'game.
So close was the contest that the visitors actually scored more points than the winners, who in winning cleren games, scored 224 aces, as against the K.C.C.'s 2411 aces for nine games.
Despite the heat, the badminton was excellent. The Jockey Club owed everything to Sousa and Choy, who again won all three rubbers without the loss of game.
Kwok and Llang put up a clever. display against Collins and Guest, but after winning the first game to five, conceded the next two.
Zimmern and Yue obtained a surprise win over Broadbridge and Gray, winning the first and third
games.

SOME BATTING CONTRASTS
YORKSHIRE AND M.C.C. SCORE FREELY
AUSTRALIANS THWARTED BY E. W. DAWSON
London, May 8.
IN between the showers during the past three days, first class cricket offered some interest- ing play, with batsmen and bowlers in rare struggles for supremacy.
BUT for the rain, Notts and Lancashire would
'probably have garnered the full points in- stead of being forced to take first innings honours. However there were definite results in the three other county engagements. The friendly encounters in which the Australians. M.C.C., and Oxford figured were all left drawn. BATSMEN shared the honours with bowlers. Nine
willow-wielders reached three figures, and two others missed the mark after reaching the nineties. Ten bow- lers enjoyed varying successes, with Lewis, a Kent colt, leading the way with 8 for 58.
