Derbyshire Snatch A One Run Lead On

Glamorgan

London, June 15.-After yesterday's rain, cricketers today had bright sunshine and, apart from a few minuter' holdup for a shower in one or two cares, a full day's cricket.

Northamptonshire, who are pressing the leaders, look like beating the former Champions, Middlesex, who had to follow on, but one of the most exciting happen- ings today saw Derbyshire snatch a one-run lead on the first innings against Clamorgan in a low scoring game with the two sides just passing the 100.

In other cases batsmen found run-getting fairly easy and Yorkshire gained á first innings lend over Essex for the loss of only one wicket and declared when 219 runs ahead for the loss of half their wickets.
