COMMEMORATION DAY.

ACHANGE in the weather just before Commemoration Day caused

grave anxiety to most people as to whether we should have a fine

day or not . Happily, though the early morning was gloomy, it

brightened considerably later on, and the afternoon was as fine as could

be desired . The usual service was held at half-past ten in the Chapel,

which was very tastefully decorated for the occasion . Those who

assisted in the decorations were Mrs . Handford, who did the altar and

three east windows ; Mrs. Burton and Mrs . Miller, the pulpit ; Miss

Veld, the lectern ; Miss Leaf and Mrs . Miller, the choir ; and B. G. T.

Scargill, the choir stalls . Dr. Hingston, with his customary kindness,

lent some beautiful plants which gave a most charming effect.

There was a very fair congregation though we could have wished

that more Old Boys could have been able to be present . The

officiating clergy were The Head Master, the Rev . A. E. Burton, and

the Rev . H. Griffith, vicar of Lockington . The service opened with

the hymn "Disposer Supreme . " The lesson was read by E . IV . Clarke.

The Rev . H. Griffith, who was formerly a Free Scholar of the School,

preached from Joshua v. 13 and 14 . After describing the taking of

Jericho, he said that life was a warfare, and the enemies to be subdued

were the world, the flesh, and the devil . He bade his hearers take

Christ as their Captain, and while aiming high to seek first the Kingdom

of God and His righteousness . As he looked back he thought ofthose who had been school-fellows with him, of whom some had died,

some held high positions, while some had failed and fallen short of

their ambitions . Let them trust in Christ and obey Him as their

376

SCHOOL LETTER.

Commander, and at last they would reign with Him in Heaven . The

hymn " For all the Saints who from their labours rest, " was then sung

and a collection made . The service closed with a celebration of theHoly Communion. Mr. Sample presided at the organ.

The Head Master and Mrs. Handford very kindly entertained at

luncheon a large number of friends, the Masters and their wives, andthe Old Boys' and Present Boys' Eleven . Amongst those present were

the Bishop of Beverley and Mrs . Crosthwaite, and the Dean and Lady

Emma Purey-Cust . In the afternoon a large crowd was present to

witness the Old Boys' Match, an account of which is to be found inanother column . The weather was lovely and everything went off as

well as and one could wish.

SCHOOL LETTER.

CRIChET is, of course, now in full swing . Looking back and

reviewing the short past, who could feel dissatisfied with even theweather favouring us and hindering scarcely one day's practise ? True,

at the beginning of the season, the horizon seemed shrouded with acloud of gloom, but the Eleven at once dispelled it by their well-

earned, though easy, victory over the North Riding Asylum . Then

the tide of fortune turned — fortune, I say, for what else was it that madeus lose the match with Durham, in spite of a fine not-out innings of

41 by our Captain, who deserves all praise for his plucky effort? Sea'

variat Fortuna . I am sure we hope it will ; that defeat may change to

victory ; one victory but the presage of many more to come. Our three

Elevens thus we fain would cheer : but stay—there is the Second we

forget, in their first match unlucky losers ; the Third too, quite an

innovation by-the-way, as yet triumphant in success.And now, to turn to Boating . The new boats, as most of you will

already know, the boats, long promised, have arrived at last, and now

are safely stored in the Boathouse. But how can we, Present Peterites,thank the Old Boys adequately for their generous support—nay, for

the warm, unselfish interest they have taken in the welfare of their oldSchool ? We can but thank them all most heartily, and in the Boat

Race wish them better luck .

CRICKET' .

377

And now, before bidding you farewell, I would remind the Present

Members of the School that it is the duty of every one of them to

support the School Magazine, and not to leave the burden of ex pense

upon the shoulders of a few ; let them show their patriotism by acts,

and not by mere idle words, and so prevent the Pctcrite, which may

once too often go to the brink, like the pitcher to the well, from some

day dying out for ever .

CRICKET.

SCHOOL \USTERS.

This trial match was played on the School ground, May 1Sth and

19th . Bingham won the toss and elected to bat, sending inPartington and Nevile to face the deliveries of Messrs . Wilkes

and Yeld . Partington skied the second ball he received, and retired

for a cypher. Disasters did not end here, as with the score at 6

C. Whincup was unluckily run out. Bingham filled the vacancy and

quickly settled down, getting Mr. Miller, who had come on in place of

Mr. Yeld, away for 7 in one over . R. Whincup was caught from a

very poor stroke, and Rose joined Bingham, who was playing capital

cricket . These two quickly raised the total, bringing on Mr . Lord for

Mr. Wilkes . Rose, however, was unfortunately run out when appearing

well set, his 21 included six 2 ' S and a 3 .

He played well for hisruns, but was decidedly lucky with some strokes . The partnership

had realised 56 .

Mr . Miller now had his revenge, clean bowling

Bingham with the score at S3 . His innings, although not quite free

from fault, was an admirable one, and included a 4 and five 3 ' s.With the exception of Addis and Shepherd, who carried out his bat

for a useful 16, the remainder did nothing.

The innings closed

for 1J4.After a somewhat lengthy interval, the masters commenced batting

with Mr . Miller and A . M. Sullivan. The start was more disastrous

than that of the school, as with 4 on the board Sullivan unluckily hithis wicket . Mr Handford filled the vacancy, but lost Mr . Miller, who

was out for an appeal at the wicket . The decision was a doubtful

one . Mr. Lord was out in a similar way the very next ball. Mr. Wilkesu

37 8

CRICKET.

then joined Mr . Handford, but with 12 added, the latter was

caught by Addis ; the fielder misjudged the catch, but managed to

secure it . Mr. Yeld joined Mr Wilkes, who was playing good

cricket, but he slid not survive long, being caught at point by Bingham.

Mr. Burton came in only to see Mr . Wilkes caught and bowled by

Shepherd for an invaluable 2o . Mr. Sworn, who followed, was veryunfortunate in being run out 4 runs later . The innings then quickly

came to a close for 51 .

Bingham's bowling proved irresistible, he

capturing 5 wickets for 7 runs . The fielding of the School team

was very good, and it would be unfair to single out any one

individual.

The masters had just failed to save the follow on, being 83 runs in

arrears . Nevile and Sullivan opened the innings, the bowling being

shared by Bingham and Addis . Bingham 's third ball proved too

much for Sullivan, as a later one did for Nevile . Messrs . Miller and

Handford put on S runs, when Mr. Miller was splendidly caught by

Hudson . With the total unaltered, the same fielder caused

Mr. Handford's dismissal . Mr. Lord made matters lively whilst he was

in, but was out from a good ball by Bingham . Leonard and

Mr. Yeld added 17 for the last wicket, but when a change seemed

advisable, Leonard put one up and was caught, the masters suffering

defeat by an innings and 37 runs.

This match was played on the Asylum ground, on Tuesday, May

23rd . The visitors won the toss and went first to the wickets . Addis

and C . P. Whincup were the first pair of batsmen, but with the score

at 7 Addis failed to get hold of one of Pest ' s and was easily caught.

C. P. Whincup was bowled at the same total, and Partington was out

7 runs later . Bingham and Rose put a different aspect on the game,

bringing on Rudd in place of Kershaw. Neither batsman seemed at

home with Best, who on several occasions beat and almost bowled

Bingham . Rudd at length, with the total 37, or 23 for the partner-

ship, secured Bingham's dismissal, the outgoing batsman having scored

IS by vigorous cricket. R. Whincup was badly run out 5 runs later.

Bailey played across at a straight ball and was bowled .

Shepherd

joined Rose only to see his dismissal by Rudd at 51 . Eastwood

joined Shepherd, and the best cricket of the afternoon was seen, the

former twice driving Borras to the off for 2 and a single.

Shepherd was extremely lucky, Best beating him with balls on every

side of the wicket . The partnership was the longest of the innings.

producing 24 runs . Eastwood 's display was marred by one chance

only . Hudson was bowled after making 2, the innings closing for 77.

Rudd and Glaisby opened the Asylum innings, the bowlin g being in

the hands of Bingham and Bailey. Rudd put up the second ball he

received and was easily captured. After making 4 Waterhouse was

bowled . Glaisby and Kershaw took the score from 7 to IS when the

latter was bowled by Bailey . Best joined Glaisby, but with 4 added

Glaisby was caught by the wicket keeper standing back . Best alone

secured double figures, Bailey and Bingham carrying all before them.

Bailey 's analysis reads 15 overs, S maidens, IS runs, 5 wickets ; and

Bingham's 15 overs, 6 maidens, 20 runs, 5 wickets . Although Bailey

had the better average he bowled some very loose balls . The fielding

of the School was very good, and the win was a very creditable one.

YORKSHIRE GENTLEMEN.Played on the Yorkshire Gentlemen 's ground on Tuesday, May

3oth, and resulted in a win for our opponents by 117 to 37 . Binghamwon the toss and sent in Addis and Partington, the attack being

shared by Landon and Wood . The second ball of the first over gotPartington lbw to Landon, the same bowler sending C . Whincup back

the next ball but one . Bingham scored a little off Wood, and broughton A. Worsley in his place . Addis and Bingham brought the total upto 15 before the latter was taken at the wickets . The next twowickets went down without any further addition to the score, and 21was telegraphed at the fall of the 9th wicket . The longest stand of theinnings came now, the last wicket realising 16 runs, Nevile playing

very well, although he sent two chances before Hudson was bowled.

Having despatched the School for 37, the Gentlemen sent in Schofield

and Maughan to face the deliveries of Bingham and Bailey, the formerbatsman being clean bowled by Bingham ' s third ball . At 5 . W. H. A.

Worsley, who had joined Maughan, was taken at the wickets, and his

place was taken by Young, who proved rather troublesome andbrought on Addis and Nevile, in place of Bingham and Bailey . In

Addis ' second over R. Whincup got his lip badly cut by a fast leg ball,

and had to leave the field, Eastwood taking his place at the wicketswhilst Mr . Lord fielded as substitute . At 62 Young was taken at thewickets, and at 77 Landon, who had replaced Maughan at 35, was

well caught at mid-on . After Captain Savile had been caught in the

long field, Captain Luke and A . Worsley made a stand, and took the

score to 95 before they were separated . The last two wickets put on

22, and so the innings concluded at 117.

The School went in again in the same order, Addis being dismissedat 11, after which Partington and C . Whincup and then Partington

and Bingham made a good stand, taking the score up to 5o before

Partington fell a victim to A. Worsley. Rose and Shepherd were bothsent back without scoring, and 55 for 5 wickets was scored when the

game concluded . In the first innings the School made rather a poor

show in the batting line, but in the second was considerably better.Bailey was very successful with the ball, and Nevile proved useful

with his slows, getting two men caught in the long field, one at mid-on,

and another at square-leg . The fielding was good, and some fine

catches were brought off.

Played on the School ground, on Saturday, June 3rd . The weatherwas all that could be desired, and a large number of spectators were

present . Bingham lost the toss, and Durham batted first, sending in

C. Adamson and Fawcus to face the bowling of Bingham and Nevile .

CRICKET .

Adamson should have been run out the first ball of the match, but the

first wicket did not fall till Fawcus was lbw to Nevile at is.Cumberledge came in his place, but Adamson was well caught in the

long field before another run was scored . After Cumberledge had

been dismissed for q, with the score at 24, Sadler and Mabane bycareful cricket took the total up to 52, when the latter was clean

howled by Addis . Afdeck went first ball, and Thornton joined Sadler,

only to be caught at mid-on four overs later. When the score was at61 for 6 wickets, the game was stopped for lunch, Sadler and Wilkinson

being at the wickets . After lunch these batsmen made a long stand,

and playing very carefully look the total up to for before Bingham

effected their separation by bowling Sadler . Wilkinson soon followed,

being well caught at third man, and the last two wickets put on 17

more runs, making the total 1'9 . The innings lasted two hours and

three quarters.

:Addis and Shepherd went in first for the School, C . :Adamson and

Wilkinson sharing the bowling . The innings opened rather disastrously,Shepherd being clean bowled at five and C . Whincup being taken at

long-off when the score was at 1 r . Bingham then joined Addis, and

these two more than doubled the score before Addis was given lbw toWilkinson. Rose hit a three and then had rather hard lines in being

caught at square leg, and Partington was sent back two runs later.

R. 1Vhincup then joined Bingham, who had been playing very steadily,

and seemed like making matters rather lively, but was not long before

he was clean bowled by Adamson, though that wicket had made 17.The next wicket put on 16, Bingham cutting Wilkinson to the boundary

several times, the score at Eastwood's dismissal being 76 . At 78

Hudson was out, and then Nevile and Bingham made a long stand,not being separated till Nevile was bowled by Adamson at rob for a

well-played 15 . Bailey then partnered Bingham, but ran himself out

before many more were made, and the innings concluded for 113,

Bingham being not out . The chief features of the game were theinnings of Sadler and Bingham, though the former should have been

out more than once when his score was only small . Bingham 's was a

fine display of cricket, and if he had only gone in earlier the result of

the match might have been different . On the whole the fielding of

both sides was good .

in to face the bowling of Bingham and Nevile . Runs came very

slowly at first, and the first ball of Nevile ' s fifth over took Blackledge's

leg-bail, with the score at IS . Hind came next, and then a long stand

was made, both batsmen playing with the utmost care, and scoring

only slowly. This continued till lunch, Addis having taken the ball

from Nevile at the School end . A separation was not made till some

time after the re-commencement, Addis beating Curran with a splendiddelivery, when the total was at ioo, this partnership realising 82 runs.

innings opened very badly, Addis running himself out before he had

up to 13, when Hines upset his wickets with a grand ball . The next

six wickets went down only adding 8 runs to the total, and at 2r

Sullivan and Bailey began to score, putting on 15 runs before the

innings closed by the latter being clean bowled, ten minutes before

time to draw stumps . Bailey hit freely and made some very good

strokes on the leg side, but nevertheless had a certain amount of luck.On both sides the fielding was extremely good, but both our batting

and bowling was far below the usual standard.

V . BARNARII CASTLE SCHOOL.

This match was played on the School Ground, on Saturday, June

Loth . Bingham won the toss, and at 12 o'clock sent in Addis and

Shepherd to face the deliveries of Morton and Paynter . In the first

over, with only four on the board, Addis was bowled, and C. \Vhincul,

filled the vacancy. Two overs later, however, Shepherd was well

caught low clown in the slips . Bingham partnered \Vhincup and drove

Morton to the on for three, and cut him for a couple . \Vhincup drove

Paynter to the off for three, but returned one tamely to the bowler a

run later. (3 for 24) . No one stayed long with Bingham untilR . AVhincup arrived, the score then being 39 for 6 wickets . Runs now

came quickly, Bingham playing especially well, whilst \Vhincup treated

both bowlers alike. 50 went up at 1-lo, but 11 runs later, Bingham

jumped out at one, missed it, and was bowled . The outgoing batsmanhaving made 28 by good cricket. \Vhincup was caught in trying to

drive at 6S, and Sullivan who had joined \Vhincup returned one to the

bowler at 75 . Newton whipped In and drove Imeson finely for three.

Both batsmen hit out, and the score had been taken to 96 when the

luncheon interval arrived, Hudson being not out 14, and Newton seven.Continuing at 2-20, runs came apace, the roo going up amid cheers.

At 112, however, the partnership came to an end, the last two men

having added no less than 37 runs . Hudson carried out his bat for 26.After the usual interval, Paynter and Burn opened the visitors innings

to the bowling of Bingham and Nevile. The start was a most

disastrous one, as Paynter was caught at point, and Thompson bowled

before a run had been scored . At three, Burn returned one to the

bowler, and eight runs later Alexander was finely taken by the wicket-

keeper . Humble was caught from the first ball he received, making

half the wickets down for 12 . Manisty was foolishly run out at 19, and

the seventh and eighth wickets fell at 20 . Dixon and Imeson put on18 by careful cricket for ninth wicket, but both left at the same total.

The innings closing for 38.

After the usual interval, Burn and Paynter opened the visitors second

essay, they having had to follow on in a minority of 74 . Paynter was

snapped at the wicket with only one on the board . Thompson joined

Burn, who began to hit out freely, being especially severe on Newton.

Neither batsmen could do much with Addis . Bingham came on vice

Newton, but a few overs later handed the ball to Shepherd, who

effected a separation, Thompson being taken at point . (2 for 25).

On Alexander appearing, another stand was made, and Nevile took the

ball from Shepherd, this produced a rapid change, he clean bowling

Burn at 46, for a useful, although lucky innings of 27 . Addis bowled

Alexander six runs later . Humble played carefully, but Nevile proved

to much for the remaining batsmen, and when stumps were drawn therewere 9 wickets down for 6r . The visitors being still 13 runs behind,

with one wicket to fall.

Nevile was the most destructive bowler, taking altogether 8 wicketsfor 27 runs . The School batting was very uneven, although Bingham

and Hudson played well, and Newton and R . Whincup hit hard for

their runs. The fielding was on the whole very good, except, perhaps

that there was a slight slackness in the visitors' 2nd innings. Thecatching was very good, Whincup being especially conspicuous in that

respect behind the wickets. In addition to Nevile, Bingham and

Addis bowled very well .

v. POCKLINGTON G. S.

Played at Pocklington, on Wednesday, June 14, and resulted in a

disgraceful beating for the School . An early start was made, about

10-30, and Whincup getting the best of the spin sent in Addis and

Shepherd to face the deliveries of Harrison and Taylor . Addis soon

began to score off Taylor, but neither batsman could get Harrisonaway, his deliveries being very straight and well pitched, and Shepherd

soon was his first victim, caught from a very tame stroke at mid-off.

C. Whincup joined Addis, and playing steady cricket, soon brought

English on vice Taylor . At 16 Addis was bowled, and two runs later

Rose and Partington were sent back without scoring . R. Whincup

made three singles, and Nevile saw the score at J4 before

he left, C. Whincup falling a victim to mid-off at the same total.

Sullivan and Newton each subscribed a single, and the innings

closed for the small score of 36, the last three wickets not adding

to the total.For Pocklington, Marshall and Rowley first represented the School

at the wickets, Addis and Nevile sharing the attack . Marshall playedthe second ball on to his wickets, letting in Snowden to partner

Rowley. At 15 Rowley was clean bowled, and after Butt and

Harrison had been despatched, Addis got Snowden lbw for a well

played 11 . The next wicket (Swindell) was obtained in rather apeculiar manner. The batsman after running a single strolled out of

his ground, and Addis promptly threw at his wickets . The next three

men were sent back before they had scored, and English added a 3,the innings closing for 35.

After lunch the school went in again, and it was almost a repetition

of the first innings, Partington alone reaching double figures . We

compiled the meagre total of 41, and then Pocklington knocked up 90

for the loss of 6 wickets, chiefly through the instrumentality of

Marshall, Snowden, Iarrison, and Swindell.It may be as well to say that we were without the services of our

captain and Hudson on this occasion, and perhaps this may in

some way be responsible for the wretched exhibition of cricket we

showed .

P. E. LORD, ESQ .'S XI.

In consequence of the inability of Ripon School to visit us on Saturday,

June 17th, Mr. Lord got together an eleven to play us, including five

of the masters.We won the toss, and batted first, Shepherd and Addis opening the

proceedings, opposed by Messrs. Yeld and Miller . Shepherd soon

began to punish Mr . Miller, cutting him for a 2 and driving him to the

off for 3 in the first over, Addis meanwhile contenting himself with

singles and an occasional 2 . After a few overs Platt superseded Mr.

Miller at the School end, runs still coming, but more slowly . A

separation was not made till the total was 58, the second wicket going

down at the same score, and the third a run later. This left

C . \Vhincup and Partington at the wickets, 110 being reached before

Mr. Yeld broke through Partington 's defence . R. AVhincup joined his

brother, and when that wicket put on 23 they both collapsed within

two runs of one another, the sixth wicket being down for 1J5.

Nothing more happened till Sullivan and Newton raised the total from

137 to 152 for the last wicket but one . Messrs Miller and Williams wentin first for our opponents, the latter being taken at the wickets before he

had scored. The next three wickets took the score up to J5, and

Messrs. Lord and Padel, by dint of good cricket, raised it to 43.Mr. Handford then joined Padel, and 63 was up when the latterwas dismissed, the last three men being sent back without scoring.

After an interval, Mr . Lord 's XI. followed on, doing worse than

previously, 5 wickets falling for 16 runs . Appended are the scores :

v . YORKSHIRE GENTLEMEN.Played on the Gentlemen 's ground, on Tuesday, June 20. The

School batted first, Addis and Shepherd opposing the bowling of A.

\Vorsley and Landon . The score rose quickly, Shepherd hitting in

grand style, and the total reached 20 before Addis was taken in the

slips ; Shepherd almost immediately afterwards was given out leg

before. Bingham and C. AVhincup were now together, and runs came

quickly, Whincup punishing the bowling severely . The pair took the

score up to 63 before \Vhincup was bowled for an excellent 28, lettingPartington in, who soon hit up 7 and then was bowled by \Vorsley.

Rose partnered Bingham, who appeared to have settled down by now,

and the score was slowly taken up to 93, when Bingham was given out

caught at the wicket for a well played 31 . None of the rest did

much except Hudson and Eastwood, and the innings closed for 123.

The Gentlemen started batting with Parsons and Fox, to the

bowling of Bingham and Nevile, but the former did not stay long,being well caught by Bingham in the slips, and Fox had hard lines in

being run out. A. Worsley now partnered Palmer, who was presently

splendidly caught by Rose in the long field, the fielder taking the

ball over the Pavilion railings, and falling over the seats with the ball

in his hand . Landon joined Worsley, and the score rose quickly to

30 before the former was bowled by Nevile . \V. H. A. Worsley did

not survive long, and with Fairfax well caught by Rose, and Captain

Luke bowled, the score stood at 54 for 7 wickets, and the eighth

wicket fell at 56, A . Worsley being taken in the long field for an

excellent 24 . Firth and Schofield were now together, and the score

rose rapidly, Firth hitting Bingham for 13 in one over . Newton took

the ball from Nevile, and got Firth caught in his first over, and soon

afterwards Lord was captured at square leg off the same bowler, theSchool being left victorious with 30 runs to spare.

The fielding of the School was excellent.

OLD BOYS.

This, the annual match with the Old Peterites was played on the

School Ground, on Thursday, June 29th.The School went first to the wickets, at 12-30, Addis and Shepherd

facing Crowther and Lord . The first five overs produced 30 runs, and

Crowther then handed the ball to Metcalfe, who bowled Addis with hissecond ball . With 7 added C. Whincup, who had filled the vacancy,

lost the services of Shepherd . The outgoing batsman had made 2 r by

hard hitting . Bingham was bowled off his pads at 45, and Partington

left with the total unaltered. Lunch was now taken, the score being 45for 4 wickets. Rose who had come in just before lunch, partneredWhincup at the resumption at 2-30 . He stayed while 20 were addedfor the fifth wicket, although only contributing 4 . R. Whincup now

joined his brother, and some lively cricket was witnessed, when 21 had

396

CRICKET.

been added R . Whincup called his brother for a short run, and lost hiswicket . He had made 25, by good cricket, and was apparently well

set. R. Whincup did not long survive, being easily caught at 87.

Hudson was bowled at 99, and Eastwood left at 106 . Nevile and

Newton made an unexpected stand for the last wicket, 16 being added

before Newton was taken off Lord's bowling.The innings closed for 122, Nevile carrying out his bat for

a useful 13.

After the usual interval, Lord took Naylor to the wickets to faceBingham and Nevile . The slow bowler got rather severely punished,

Lord treating most balls the same way, driving and cutting them for 2 ' S

and 4 ' S . Naylor was content with singles, but defied all efforts to

dislodge him . Boundaries wete frequent, and Lord was constantly

applauded for his fine driving . When 57 Lord gave a chance to the

wicket-keeper, which was not accepted, this mistake proving very costly.

Naylor was unfortunately given out leg before wicket with the score at

120. He played very well for his 32, and it was a good display of

patient cricket. Lord and Birks put on 33 for the 2nd wicket, of

which number the latter only contributed a single . No one stayedwith Lord till Metcalfe arrived, and then the cricket became of the

liveliest character . Lord hit one up to the fives court, and another to

the school, which received due recognition from the spectators.

Metcalfe also hit out merr ily, although, perhaps, luckily . He left with

the total at 2J5, an increase of 57 since the fall of the last wicket.

Hancock stayed some overs but allowed Lord to do the scoring . WithCrowther ' s advent, Lord ' s magnificent innings came to a close for 193.

Although not free from fault, as he was let off by the wicket-keeper at

57, and by mid-on at S6 from a lofty hit. Otherwise, his cricket was ofthe best, his hitting being well timed and hard . He scored at much

the same pace all through, except, perhaps, towards the close when

anxious to score his 200, and then his hitting slowed downa bit.

This is probably the largest individual score ever made on the school

ground, and thoroughly deserved the round of applause which greeted

him on his return from the wickets.

With Lord's dismissal the innings quickly came to an endfor 270 .

CRICKET .

397

The School bowling was really better than the analysis shows, as

when the extras, and Lord ' s score are taken away only 70 remains for

the other ten men.

The School fielding was very good considering the long time they

were in the field. Bingham bowled the best, and his balls were generally

straight.Although ending disastrously tor the School they have no need to be

discouraged, as Lord is well acquainted with their bowling.

CAMBRIDGE LETTER.

(A'\IBRII)GIE for the last three weeks has been devoted to visitorsv and frivolity. Third year men. released from the cares ofTriposes, have been discovering how much more difficult it is to idle

than to work satisfactorily, and have been trying to forget their

apprehension or their disappointment in the society of cousins and

aunts. The School has not been conspicuously successful in examina-

tions :—Metcalfe has passed the Theological Special, and Fasten has

gained a third-class in the Mathematical Tripos ; in the Classical,

Wilkinson appears in the second-class, first division of the First Part ;

Leaf in the first-class of the Second Part . These facts are now

ancient history, but the Cambridge correspondent may nevertheless bepermitted to record them . Caius College had this year the honour

of owning the Wooden Spoon . After the fortunate man had taken his

degree, the spoon, looking it must be confessed more like a spade than

a spoon—emblazoned with the college arms and decorated with ribbonsof the college colours, was lowered in due form to him from the

gallery, and then he was taken round the town at a high rate of speed,

riding in state on a handcart, holding the spoon for sceptre, and seatedunder the shade of a large Japanese parasol . At the HonoraryDegrees, Lord Roberts was most enthusiastically received, and next to

c].O c}

OXFORD LETTER.

him, the Indian Prince, gorgeous in jewelled turban and purple velvet.

The gallery wit was of the smallest.

In the boat races this year the most remarkable feature was thedownfall of "blues " Trinity Hall I . containing two " blues " andseveral trial caps was discovered to be slower than the second boat of

the same college, and at the last moment changed places with it ; eventhen it descended two places . First Trinity I . were unquestionablythe fastest boat on the river, but were unable to catch Trinity Hall'

though they generally came near it. Next year we shall be glad to seeClarke in residence as a scholar of S . Catharine ' s, and to welcomeMitchell to Canis, where we hope to see him achieve the athletic fame

which we know to be his due .

G . C . C.

OXFORD LETTER.

IT seems that not even in the sanctity of the Long are we to be safe

from the importunities of the Pelerite Editor, for even as we stood

with trembling heart upon the very threshold of " Collections" we

received one of his dreaded demands.

We suppose the Summer Term was as all Summer Terms have beenand will be, except that to judge from the ever increasing influx of

visitors, Oxford is fast becoming a mere suburb of London . We had

the inevitable Unionist L)emonstration at the beginning of Term.

The torch-light procession produced many Falstaffian stories, andproved a very mine of wealth for the tailors.

Though the Eleven can scarcely be said to have had a very

prosperous season, still on one or two occasions, more especially against

the Australians, they gave a good account of themselves . LevesonGower has shown himself to be an excellent bat ; and let us hope that

\Vilson and Berkeley, with Bathurst and Arkwright, will once more put

to shame those who say that Oxford has no bowlers.The Eights were as exciting as usual, Trinity's success being the

most phenomenal, every-one thought they were going to bring off the

highest possible in bumps till their victorious career was stopped byQueen ' s .

CORRESPONDENCE.

4 0 5

Oxford is at present suffering from an _Esthetic revival . Strangegarments of divers colours, hats bedecked with lilies . masculine Firmsbedizened with bracelets are to be seen on the Cherwell, while uncouth

langua g e concerning " greens " and amethyysts " in tones " and • ` keys "may once more be heard in the High . The .spirit Lamps, that organ of

Neo-Hellenic Culture, inspired by the " man of a coarse habit of body

and still coarser habit of mind, " Oscar Wilde, produces periodic'" Impressions " in French, and last moonings of J . A. Symonds.

Its Philistine " and banansic " rival, the Isis, bids fair to become an

Oxford " Granta, " notwithstanding that it reeks not of the higher

Philosophy and discourses of questions, evident to any normal

capacity " such as " Is Cambridge played out ? "

The Union Debates have been quite above the average, but the

President has had rather a bad time in Private Business . However, it

was too much to expect that members would refrain from the

opportunity of "ragging" a noble Earl.

Koptic is still the prevalent language at Oxford, but in addition to

the " —ger " termination, " bladder " is now put on to the end of every

word, and we heard a two-horse tram described as a "double-ogger

trigger-bladder " the other day.

Oxford O .P ' s . (we can use the plural) congratulate Cambridge

OP's. upon their many and various successes.

CORRESPONDENCE.

[To THE EDITOR OF THE " PE'1'EI:I"1'E .",

DEAR SIRS,

I hope you will give me space to say a few words in answer to K .G.,

who seems to be considerably annoyed with me. I will promise toavoid all personalities, an(I will not speak of " petty cavils, " " complete

ignorance, " or " sheer perverseness, " nor will I suppose that difference of

opinion necessarily means loss of common sense and even of morality.I must first apologise to R .G. for hurting his feelings by reading one

sentence of his letter in connection with another . I beg to inform him

that I not only read his letter with care, but examined it closely, and

reading in one place that " the Day Boys are regarded as too insig-

nificant a factor of the School for any serious consideration, " I thought,

406

CORRESPONDENCE.

without any wish to mis-state or pervert, I might reasonably take the

expression "combination of folly and favouritism," as his opinion of thelate system. If the above sentence does not charge the authorities

with favouritism, I cannot imagine what it means . I leave it to your

readers. I hope R.G. will see that I had no wish to deliberately

misquote him, and, if he will explain what other construction to put on

his words, I shall better understand his present indignation . That the newsystem may be a present success, I strongly hope ; that it will be a

permanent one, I cannot expect or desire . Whatever R.G. thinks, I

maintain my statement that House contests are recognised as the bestmeans of encouraging the keenness necessary for athletic success . May I

quote one whose name may carry weight even to the mind of R G .?

Mr. Edward Lyttelton says :—" To set House against House is a sureand certain way of provoking interest . A glance at boys playing in

these and at others playing in pick up games will detect the difference in

the zest and keenness of the combatants . " But hatever may bethought on this question, I think we shall all condemn the maxim that

men are to give up whenever there seems no chance of success . YetR.G. says :—" It is impossible that men should be found to practise

regularly, or even row at all, when they have nothing to look forward to

but hopeless defeat . " Such a view I have no hesitation in describing

as utterly un-English, and opposed to every tradition of Public School

life.However, I will not waste your space in arguing such a question ; I

am only writing to clear myself from the charge of misquoting, and to

sp ew R.G., if possible, that because I differ from him about some

particular system, I do not necessarily support favouritism or wish toensure the continual ill-success of any section of the School . We bothdesire the welfare of the Boat Club, and, if we differ as to the modus

operandi, there is no need to show a spirit of bitterness.To conclude, the Day Boys have been strong enough to beat the

Houses before, and with careful practice may soon be strong enough to

do so again ; at any rate the success of their second boat this year

looks like it. Meanwhile, adopt any plan that seems likely to improve

matters, and let your energy be devoted to hard and unselfish workwithout continually harping on favouritism.—I am, yours truly,
