THE ASHBURIAN 19 jointed Southam and contented himself with trying to remain in while Southam scored. The result was a useful stand which raised the score to 31 before Southam who had made 17 was caught. Dewar joined Smellie, but was immediately sent back by Stevens. Wilson went in and settled down to play carefully. Smellie left at 36 and Bowman 3 runs later, then Bonnar joined Wilson. The stand which followed was probably the most valuable made for Ashbury during the season. Coming together with the score at 39 for 8 wickets both batsmen played carefuly and let the runs come. The bowling began to get looser under this treatment and Bonnar was finally able to help himself to a couple of fours on the leg side. Wilson was caught by King with the score at 74 out of which his share was 13, all singles. Bonnar left at 77, and the innings closed for 80. Not a big score, but bigger than it had looked like being and, as it turned out, big enough, thanks to Oppe ' s bowling, to win the game. Coles and Orbinski opened the Defence innings to the bowling of Bowman and Wilson. Runs came fast and Bonnar was put on for Wilson. With the score 23, Coles was well caught in the slips by Oppe. Edwards fell to a good catch in the deep by Gausden, and then Orbinski, who was scoring freely, was smartly taken by Smellie at cover. Stevens and King scored steadily until King hit Oppe for two successive fours. He tried to do the same with the next ball and fell into the trap so carefully laid by the bowler and was caught by Wilson. Heathely followed and faced the bowling of Fauquier, who had relieved Oppe. He hit the first ball to the boundary for four and then settled down to careful batting, while Stevens continued to score. Dewar was put on for Fauquier and, in his second over, broke up the partnership by catching Heathely. Oppe was put on again and bowled Fulford off his first ball, 7 wickets for 68. The eighth wicket fell ?t 70 and the ninth at 75. Oppe was bowling to Stevens. The second, Stevens hit for 2, the third was slow, straight and a good length. Stevens tried to pull it for the winning 4, he miss-hit and was caught by Oppe. The last man came in. Oppe sent down another slow good length ball which came in just enough to take the bails, and so an exciting game ended with Ashbury winning by three runs.

ASHBURY vs. THE FATHERS This match postponed from the previous Saturday owing to rain was played on Monday, June 11th. The Fathers won the toss and decided to bat first. Mr. Gausden and Mr. Bonnar gave them an excellent start. The Ashbury bowlers were inclined to be erratic and did not keep their usual length, so the score mounted fairly quickly, but the Fathers ' first pair batted very well and, aided by two lives in the field, were not separated until the score had reached 91, Mr. Bonnar being then caught in the slips by Oppe. At 110, MacBrien brought Mr. Gausden ' s innings to a close by holding on to a good catch. He had given a delightful display of free hitting all round the wicket. Lunch was taken shortly after- wards with the score standing at 116 for 2. When play was resumed Mr. Wright and Mr. Whitfield took the score to 136, when the latter was bowled. Mr. Brodie joined Mr. V right and another good stand followed. Both batsmen hit freely
