THE PROPOSITION.

The correspondent's letter readin; Dear "Veritas."--Why not a Test Match in Hongkong? Cricket is in the air, and this year more than usual interest is being displayed in the M.C.C. tour to Australia.

Whichever side collects the mythi- cal "Anher," it looks as if the five tests are going to be well fought out afairs. England has sent out one of the best teams she has had for many years, and, with one or two excep.. tions, Australia will field the team that won the "Ashes" on the last Laur.

BRILLIANCE OF COMDR. SHAW

Cambridge beat Oxford by 176 runs at the B.K.C.C. yesterday.

Batting at all times with easy confidence and skill, and occasionally administering very severe punishment to the attack, Lieut. Comdr. R. J. Shaw, enjoyed a personal triumph in the defeat of Oxford by Cambridge in the annun! cricket match on the Hong kong Cricket ground yesterday.

He hit up a magnificent 158 and remained undefeated, when the innings was declared at 261 for 4. The forcefulness of his batting can be judged from the fact that he gathered five sixes and 23 fours-122 in boundary hits..

He received valuable support from

lout. Comdr. J. D. Southorn who was unbeaten with 51 to his credit. The Oxford attack lacked sting, and only Griffiths could keep the batsmen quiet, although he was eventually treated with scant respect, his two wickets coating 58 runs. Professor L. T. Ride came in for most punishment, nine overs And there was

The collapse of Oxford at the wickel was even more amazing than their unsuccessful efforts in the field. C.D.R. Sargent did what he liked and ran through the aide to take 6 for 46 and to help dia- miss Oxford for a paltry 85 runs.

G. R. Sayer (26), L. D. Holmes (10) and R. H. Griffiths (10) were the only batsmen to display any sort of confidence and ability.

Shaw followed up his brilliant batting by equally fine wicket keeping. He stumped Hime worth, Evans and Pilcher in succession, and did not allow a single extra. The full acores were:
