BRILLIANT

BOWLING BY PERCY FENDER AGAINST SOMERSETSHIRE

RAIN THE GUARDIAN OF THE WEAK.

London. Yesterday. Bala affected play all over the mid-week country during the cricket programme, only one match providing a definite result, and that outside the County Champion. ship.

Rent and Sussex as the result of heavy rain, at Dover and East- bourne claimed four points and thus entered "the two-indred street" and joined the company of Yorkshire, who look like leaving them behind at an early, date,

A sensation was caused at .Southend on the first day of play when the strong Naits batting side surprisingly collapsed before the Essex attack- Reuter. however, does not inform us of the bowlers responsible for the destruction. but, judging from recent form, it may be concluded that Nichols and H. T. O. Smith made the ball on a dif- get up uncomfortably cult, wicket. Essex, however, bat- ted well before Voce and possibly Larwood and Staples (S.)..

At Taunton, the ground which witnessed the breaking of. W. G. Grace's long-standing century re- cord, Jack Hobbs registered the only century of the day, claiming 101 out of the 13 runs put on for the first wicket. His great effort WBS, however, unavailing, and Surrey had to return to town with four points instead of five.

P. G. H. Fender showed a glimpac of his best form when capturing seven Somerset wickets for 58 runs out of a total of 286: A really fine piece of bowling.

At Cheltenham, Gloucestershire succeeded in gaining the major points but were unable to force a win. Sinfeld, of whom we have heard little this season, captured Rix cheap wickets to dismiss the visitors for 111. Glamorganshire, at the close of play, were twelve runs in the lead with seven wickets in hand. เ
