Included in his la-

nings were seven boundaries and two 9's. In partnership with Griffiths he put on 52 runs for the fourth wicket.

The home team'a bowling did not look very deadly and seemed to lack sting, the batsman being, always on top.

Faced with 166 runs for victory the K.C.C. made no attempt to get the runs, though there was every chance of repeating Saturday's hurricane scoring. Mackay, who batted well for his 44 scored out of 69 was unfortunate to be run out 9 after participating in a second wicket partnership which produced

51 runs. Included in hía innings, 52 which was not so sound as usual,

were eight boundaries.
