YORKSHIRE TACTICS.

Yorkshire indulged · in sume astute Lactics to beat Essex. With the game restricted by rain; York-i shire had to resort to a clever de claration to win. Dismissing Es- sex for 64 at the first time of making, they went in to hit up 128 for four wickets and then ap- plied the closure. The wicket was still in a bad state, and Essex had the mortification of being Rent back the second time for 68.

Hedley Verity was the hero of the game, demoralising the Essex balamen to take 11 wickets for 74 runs.

With three hatsmen compiling rung with the greatest of case, and a bowler securing victims with equal facility there was a real paradoxical note about the meet. ing of Kent and Worcester.

Thanks to Walters, Worcester amassed the respectable acore of 383 in their first venture to the wicket, but this did not prevent Freemen taking 8 for 110-easily the best piece of bowling of the day. Kent, taking full advantage of a run-making wicket, proceed- ed to surpass Worcestor's score by 63 runs, thanks to Fairservice, the son of William Fairservice, the old Kent bowler, and Billy Ashdown, who both topped the three figuro mark. Freeman re- turned to work destruction and thereafter Kent's victory who ass nured.
