Parker tried every trick they knew to dislodge the batsmen, but luck was not with them. By the time the partnership was ended, the Wanderers were in a very good position indeed and both Weaver and Ingham thoroughly deserved the rich round of applause they received for producing classical scoring strokes and delighting sup­ porters with neat, crisp shots on both sides of the wicket. Tom Wallbank and Ken Proctor helped the Wanderers to reach 187 for the loss of only four wickets. To win. Clitheroe would have
