Wanderers' Batsmen Fail

Shanghai, Sept. 3. Despite the fine bowling of J; C. Jenkins, who included the coveted

hat trick in his performance, his side, the Wanderers failed to over- come their club rivals, the all- powerful league leading Stragglers, in their cricket fixture on the S.C.C. ground yesterday. Although winners scoring only 140, the skittled out their opponents for a meagre 78. The other game at the Recs' ground between the S.C.C.
