GLOUCESTERSHIRE A SECOND
TIME
Good Bowling By Goddard Responsible For Result
London, Juno 30.
Of the six County Cricket Championship matches completed to-day, four onded in outright victories, while two were decided on first innings.
Most important result of the day was the victory of Gloucester- shire over Yorkshire, last year's champions. Good bowling by Tom Goddard, who took 13 wickets in the course of the match for only 99 runs, dismissed Yorkshire twice very cheaply and Gloucester won the encounter by seven wickets.
This is the second time that Glou-: cestershire have humbled Yorkshire this season.
A very close game was played be tween Derbyshire and Sussex, the result being a win for the latter by 13 runs. In another even encounter, Essex beat Hampshire by 37 runs.
