Shaw Shaky.

Shaw came in and did not seem to be connecting too, accurately with the slow bowling which alone was at Oxford's command. But, after he lost Barrow at 50, he acitlod down alright. The outgoing batsman had contributed a nice twenty. Shaw then proceeded to hit. Witham carno, got ⇓ nice twenty and was brilliantly caught off a red-hot return by Griffiths (98-3-20), and with the total at 98 Wallington put one up to Bide.

Both ware dropped, Show more than once, off big hits but it was one of the most sparkl- ing displays of hitting that have been since this match last year. Then Shaw got 153 not out. Yes terday he had 158 not out including five sixes and twenty-three four's. He scored his runs in about eighty minutes, while the total of 261, was put together in ninety minutes, Southern made fifty-three not out including eight fours and a six. Ho was butting I think about forty minutes.

They started as if they might do it, as Griffiths and Sayer played with supreme confid. ence until at twenty-seven the former failed to notice that deep square leg bad bood moved round to protect the Indien Tent, and hit the ball straight to him.
