Century For K.C.C. Against Volunteers

Cricket at its best was enjoyed at the Kowloon Cricket Club yesterday, when, under ideal conditions, and on a perfect wicket, with an outfield as fast as an ice-skating rink, a K.CC. eleven boat the Volunteers by two wickets.

Nevertheless they will have Stoker, who did not play on Saturday, to bolster the attnek, which already is quite varied and hostile with Fox, Divelt, Bond and Bishop to hid Skipper Eric Mitchell.

Bishop, in fact, promises to be their best all-rounder. He scored A glorious half-century on Saturday, and although not so successtut with the ball, did fight it cleverly at Umes; and when he struck a length needed careful watching. He was 'capable of making the batsmen rench for the ball just outside the off stump, and he forced Bertram Lay into the most frantic of strokes which put the ball Into the wicketkeeper's hands.

It was on innings punctuated by rome dazzling off-drives, powerful hooks and pulls, and one or two re- markably "f-y" shots, one of which should have lost him his wicket when he had scored 30, and another when he had passed the 60 mark. Never- of theless, in

Sel to score 180 to win in 105 minutes, Kenneth Baxter and left handed Mulcahy set about the task with evident relish. Mitchell did not use Beek at the start and in half an hour Baxter and his captain had put 50 on the board. Beck come on to slow down the rate of scoring after the 00 had been hoisted, and he quickly got Mulenhy's wicket with a lovely ball. Baxter had lost his wicket just before by hitting an ordinary ball from Bishop into Bond's honds at forward mid-on. His 54 was made in very quick time and was featured by some grand stroking on the offside of the wicket. He claimed nine boundaries.

Mulcahy's 33 was slightly more painstaking though he helped to maintain a rate of scoring of nearly two runs a minute. After their dismssal the Club obtained some cheap wickets, but Gray hit vigorous- ly, and found the boundary eight times in a knock of 37. The home side was never in danger of detral, and when stumps were drawn had scored 104 for 7, with Madar and Luke still in possession.

Beck bowled only five overs, but was effective enough to make three of these maidens and to take one wicket for ten runs. Lowe bagged three wickets for 37 and Bishop had two for 25.
