ALL-INDIA BEAT OXFORD UNIVERSITY
London, May 20.
The weather has been fretful and discriminating in its favours during the last three days with the result that while on some county cricket grounds a decisive re. sult was achieved, it was impossible on others for each side to complete an innings.
Hammond, Tate, K. S. Duleepsinhji and D. R. Wil- cox are among noted cricketers who appear in the honours list. Hammond made his first big score of the season, falling short of a century but remaining unde- feated.

SUSSEX WINS AGAINST LEICESTER.
Duleep and Cook Make Things Hum.
Consistency in their batting and bowling gave Sussex a victory by an innings and thirteen runs over Leicestershire, K., S. Duleepsinhji, their captain, Cook and Tate taking chief honours in the match.
Duleepainhji and Cook were engaged in a valuable partnership and helped to take the total to 295 runs before the last Sussex bate- man was dismissed. Thanks to a fine bowling spell by Maurice Tate, Leicester were sent back for 130 runs and forced to follow on. Their second venture was slightly heller than their first but they falled by thirteen runs to avoid the innings defeat. Their final innings yielded 152 runs.

Ham-i mond had scored 88 without being defeated when the closure was applied. Bad weather, however. prevented the match from being finlahed, stumps being drawn when Someraet had made 23 runs the second for one wicket in inninga.
