CRICKET MATCHES.

(From Our Own Correspondent.)

Chefoo, June 2.

The C.I.M. Preparatory Sports were to have beer. hold on May 13, but on account of rain had to be postponed til Friday, June 15; when a large crowd of follow- scholars from the higher schools, parents and friends were present to watch the kiddies run, and to enjoy the fun.

Messrs. George Andrew and G. P. Welch acted as judges, and Mrs. Knight very kindly dis tributed the prizes to the happy, little winners.

The events this year were as varied as usual, including besides the 100 yards desk and high and long jumps, such races as a blind man's race and a catch-the-train race, which together with a rather unusual obstacle race. caused roars of amusement from the on-lookers.

Harold Graham was the proud recipient of the pennant. awarded to the boy in the Upper School who secures the most points of the afternoon. He wo the long run, 100 yards and potato race, and was second in the catch-the-train race; his team also won the team race.

There have been a couple of the cricket matches. between Cricket Club and the School since I last wrote, in both of which the boys were victorious,

In the first, on May 16. the Schoolboys batted first and had scored 90 before they were all out, Ford contributing 36, and Hazeland 34, before he retired to give the rest of the side a chance to bat as the time was limited. Messrs. Grubb and Dowglass both bowled well, the former securing 5 wickets for 29 rans and the latter 4 for- 22When the men went in to bat they were quickly disposed of for the low score of 29. Colin Ford securing 6 wickets for 18 runs.
