WARWICKSHIRE ALL OUT FOR 161 IN FIRST CHAMPIONSHIP GAME
London, May 3.- Warwickshire, who many people believe will be well in the running for this season's County Cricket Championship, today were dismissed comparatively cheaply in their first competition
game.
Put in by Hampshire, they found considerable difficulty in coping with the off-brenks of the amateur, C. H. Knott, and were all out for 161 after losing half their wickets for 101 runs. Knott took four wickets for 49 runs.
Hampshire had 49 runs on the board in reply for the loss of two wickets, but lost four more men in adding 39 and finished 28 runs behind with four wickets in hand.
