But cricket is a game full of surprises, and no one expected the Varsity to beat the Army! Actually things went according to ex- pectation, though the University did not make so bad a show when one considers the strength of the Club team. Indeed they started with a rush.

But I fancy one Mitchell, who touched it, and the has been postponed, and I think they allps for pace, which was a bit hard can still end up with 14 points.
