I hear that the First League game will-weather permitting-be played on the Indians' ground on Sunday next. The Junior game took place on Saturday last and the I.R.C. stayed a great come-back to beat the quite useful C.CC. second eleven. It must be stated, however, that the latter team were one short.

MORE ARMY CRICKET Last Wednesday I gave G. A. Lee and Anderton made a figures and reflections about the good start but the later batsmen Army, side itself. It is a great were helpless against the excellent proof of the papularity of the bowling of A., Baker, who, if my game in the Army that besides memory serves me, used to play for the first team not so very long 810 His Aguren were 11.1--

For the losers Hubbard bowled very steadily, as he sent down Afteen overs for only 21 runs, taking three wickets therein.

DODWELLS' DEFEATED

their first league sidde they have no less than three small init sides playing in the Junior Lengue,

In the old days the Gunners ran a first Division (or "League") side and the English Regt-only one then-usually had a side in too. Now the duties of an officer of h line regiment seem si inulufarious The match between Dodwells both off and on duty that they and Wayfoong was very interest-have not the time le get a regular | ing. The former relied chielly on regimental side going. Partly no Acci Bowker for their bowling and doubt this is due to the vastly Tom Hayward for the batting, but increased popularity of that gume neither came off. The latter had which here at all events- bad luck in playing a, bali on to closely resembles a dog-fight on his foot and seeing it roll back, many occasions. Be that as 12 into his wirket.

But the unkindest cut of all was when Dunkley refused to remain quietly behind the sticks, and canie out and bowled Dadwell's out-or anyway took four wickets for five runa, Smith was the most success- ful for Dodwells while several of the Protectors of our Overdrafta did very well,

may, the Army side has absorbed the best players from all units now, and the R.A.SC., B.A.M.C. and K.E. and (I think) Signals each enter a side in the second division and do very well.

This year the Army Service Corps won the Shield, although on several occasions they were without the services of their crnck players"
