pool, the Seasider’s rising to the occasion in fine stylo and vanquishing Burnley after the “ Saints ” had compiled a good score. Chorley again had to pay tribute to IVli.alley, the Windsor Park men showing up badly. B.arrow caught the Motors team in form, and they had to retire well beaten. Clitheroe s run of success was terminated a t Darwon, the home team registering a win by eight wickets. An indifferent display was given by Ribblffi- dale AVanderers. and they had to pay the penalty, this being their third reverse in

CLITHEROE’S CONQUERING CUT SHORT.


l~% A II r


ninin reason for ClithcroO’s defeat at l)ar\ven on Saturday was the weakness iii batting. I t must \ic acknowlcdgotl th a t the Darweii wicket played badly and it is not too iiiucli to say th a t in some i-a.<es tiie morale of Clit- heroe bntsmeii was sadly destroyed iiy bump­ ing lialls one felt an instinctive desiie to d<3ge. Laiiister, in particular, sending tlie ball from his great height, made the leatlier rear in startling fasliioii and batsmen -arc not all w'itiiout nervra;. Ilaii _ the _ CTitlieroe captain utilised liis liowlcrs in a similar way Durwcu would liardly liavo won .so easily for i t was later demonsi rated th a t the Darrciiers no more relisherl the bumpers than had the Castleitcs. I t i.s easy to be wise after tlie event, howover, and it w.as liardly to be ex­ pected Uiat 90 would prove a winning score. Darwen liavo captured nil four jxiints from the Cliatbiirii-road contingent.
