The newcomer Stokes, shaped very nicely. Incidentally the wicket hardly seemed to suit Reed, being a bit slow, and Lobster was hardly fast enough to cut through a Dobbie seemed to be doing. Burn, however, was very nearly out to an attempted book, to which Dobbie, at mid-on, just failed to get However, Dobbie had his revenge for in his next over he dropped Burn a slower one which entirely deceived him and an casy e and b resulted. (126.6.19.) Then came what appeared to be a stand developing. Stokes was playing excellent ericket, and though not scoring fast, be hit the ball in the middle of the bat and be hit one beautiful four to leg at this point.

At 148 Lightfoot relieved Reed and Stokes dabbed at one-to be well caught by Morris standing very close at slip Stokes had shaped excellently and if he stays in Shanghai he will make very many runs I feel sure.

Cricket again ruled quiet. O'Esra and Leach were bowling finely and very' wisely, Tam and Ramsey took no chances, Once Ramsey played putside a big off break from Leach, and sucked a couple past Barnes who had no chance at the catch. It would have been four on, a dry day. Barnes was again keeping in excellent style, bis taking of the leg balls (rare events) being particularly good. A stand was then mads but the bowling was excellent and the wicket cbviously very hard.--At 78 Pearce's off-stump was. upset by O'Hara, The batsman appar- ently tried to eut it. This was ↓ disaster for Hongkong as Pearce had been playing as soundly as usual and began to look set. O'Hara' so far had done all the damage, and was bowling very well indeed on a wicket which clearly suited him. At the same time it must be remembered that the slow ground. was much against the batsmen so at least, a dozen two's would have been fours on a dry ground,.

About here the inevitable dog appear

Next over another wicket nearly fall, Mansel-Smith touching one of Dobbie's and deflecting it past Pearce's handa, Tam's first mistake: but it was not aned, just as Dr. Morris dropped Ramsey easy catch. A couple of overs later the same batsman anicked one which, it appeared, could have been caught by Owen Hughes at first siip. It was, how
