WHALLEY. CRIGEET NOTES.


row, on Saturday last, the encounlei infubin;' nvuch enthusiasm t-imongsl thejunior village team<.


Whalley entertained theii neigbouis, Bar- the fcllo^vers of


Thu little villagers', beating the Abbey team


early m the season, the Barrow coiuingeut came on to the .field with- buoyant spirits, ex­ pecting AVith a ta<ir .share of luck la again prove the victors.


Neither of the team had their full strength


up,for whilst A. LaiigshaiVjJ. IT ITalliwelland J. Usher the pro. were absent from the WTvil- ley ran k s, A. Knowles^ T. Patefield, .and Ale.\ Grirman were also absenlce.s ficnu the iisitiiig team, Tl. Burton, now of RawtenstaJl, and


formerly pro. for the Abbey team, oime Ut the assistance of the latter leatu, A. alker, .am old B.arrow player, strengthening the vi.sit-


ing eleven. 'I'he wicket was in goed condition, coiise-


qneiulv Patelield winning tlio toss sent 1:js own men to the sticks lir.st.


J. Heaton and T. A. Pickup were the liiot


pair, but ivilh the score at two, the last named gently lifted one into the hands of Bridge.


With the same figures on the board,Heaton


w.is bowled by Htigdalc, the third wicket tai­ ling at eight.


This tlid not seeni; loo rosy for ll;e visitors,


but to-sy or not rosy, the balls sent down by A. Mercer were to be treated with care, the batters being repeatedly beaten.


The iilay of the heme kide wasttl’lendid,


the bowling and fielding both being of the lust oTder.


I'lvo wickets were down for 14, and it was


not until Walker brothers came upon the scene tluvt tlie rot was stopped.


Ih e score for the si.yth wicket was carried


from 14 to 48 at which total both batters, suc­ cumbed to Pye, who' liatil taken the ball from Diigdale.


W. W'lnward played a merry iiiniiigs for 1 5,


and with 8 Irom. the bat of Arnold Walker the score was carried to 75.


P'. V\'a,sh.brook pkiycd carefully for his four,


but at this total he was smartly taken by Rarnsbo'itoir., j . H., low down.


After the iisiuil sojourn at the tent the visi­


tors hied cut into the held mtlr an ai-qrarent dread of the attacking forces.


j . B,. Thom[)son and Roger were the lirst


to advance, ;iiid mostly by the aitl of some grand strokes from the former, 20 was scon telepraphed.


-------:o :------- Both the baiters made the by no' mean.s in­


different bowling of the visitors appear rather l>oclr sltufi, and if tho ibowling department had not at this jiincUiro undergone ai change, well, if J am allowed to predict, the score would have been passed without loss, other than the bowleis’ energies.


It was at this stage of the proceeding.^ that


Arthur \Valker,who had tlone so'well with tho bat, took the btill from his younger brother.


------- :o : -------- Next, come a shout, .and looking down at


the what should have been perijentlicnlar slicks, J perceive that Arthur had placed Mister Thompson’s centre piece of woed long length on the green sw.-rd.


Ves! they still come. ------- :o :

also did a ‘ flit.” L. Sl,iri<lcii and Burton now fonnd ihenir
