Simms and Smyth were hard-workine, and never gave up trying, both of whom came near bringing about tlte downfall of England goal by repeated dashes. These dashes were heroic, and even brilliant, but individualism will not beat me great aerensive powers oi. x-errm and Rowlands were the pick of the Irish halves; I thought the former, if occasionally beaten bv the stick-craft of Shoveller, did many clever things, but there seemed to me a lack of his old dash and "devil" in his tackling. Still, both he and Rowland worked niggers uirongnout, mit were a mt wrou before the finish by over-work.

Several of the shots came at close quarters, and Us was altogether unsighted. It is unfortunate, but nevertheless true, that at present Ireland is a long way behind England in actual hockey science, and, personally, I do not think the Irish team anything like so clever as that which gave England so hard a game at Dublin last season and at the Queen's Club in 1910.

Barons Court. W. BILLIARD CHAMPIONS. INMAN WELL AHEAD OF REECE (From a Special Correspondent.) When dealing with the. championship billiard match last week in this column I remarked on the temperament of the rivals for the honour dispensed by the Billiards Control Club.

It is a very curious thing this billiard temperament, and it may truthfully be said that the player who is the happy possessor of the gift is more likely to succeed than another who is not so gifted, even when the actual playing power of the two is about equal. Now in the match for the Billiard Champion ship referred to. that between Inman and Roece. the half-way stage of which was reached at the Holborn Hall last night, there are opposed to one another two players of about equal merit in their own particular style, yet from the beginning the odds, it is fair to assume, were on Inman being successful. Time after time, when these two players have met, Reece has had to acknowledge defeat; vet in spite of that there are many who consider the Lancashire player equally as clever an ex ponent as Inman.

There is a difference, however, and perhaps very big difference. More laborious thouch his work may be, Inman has set himself out to master the game which, to the casual rjlaver. seems so intricate, so renlete with diffi culties. Not only this, however, for he has taught himself the value of always treatmg tho game very, very seriously. Inman does not as a rule allow himself to be put out by some trivial incident which might irritate another player, rie is serious all tne time, doing the.

nest to advance his score peg and to make the task of his opponent as difficult as he possibly can. lie is as keen ts keen can be, and his masterly skill enables him to extricate himself from difficult nositions. for he is one of the cleverest stroke players in the world. As someone was once heard to remark: "Inman seems to get into difficult positions simply for the fun of getting out of them." With Reeoe. howver.

the wiholo nuMer i rather different There is sometimes just a sug- frostion of carelessness. Reeoe deems to be eitih-er very good, or elee he strikes a different vein and cannot do right. At anything1 like his beat it would, ho hard to find a more attractive player. His hazard play is good, his top of the table game a treat to watch, 'and his nursery cannon play one of the delights of a billiard room. It is all eo neatly done.

There is no flourish. while his ore vory few but-when he is reamy inform nis play is jasoinaung to watch. In spite of the fact that victory has nearly alwaiys gone to Inman when these two players have met, it if by no means easy to agree with those who maintain that the Twickenham man is the better player of the two. It sometimes seems that there is a slight lack of determination on the of Reece, which makes such a difference between winning and losing a game. Inasmuch as Inman commenced tihe final (lav's play in the match of 18,000 uip at the Holbom Hall with a lead of 2,327 points, vt seems akneet a foregone conclusion chant he will ultimately become the nossesRor of the chain nionshin of tihn Billiards Control Club, a.

title Whdchhas been held bv H. W. Stevenson since fch innerkt'nm of iHTi-ia particular competition. LAST NIGHT'S PLAY. An aggregate of 295 by Reece to Inman's afternoon total of 781 made the struggle more one-sided still, for there was difference of 2,813 points in Inman's favour when the Twiokenham player continued an unfinished break of fourteen before a moderate attendance- Inman increased his unfinished 51, and then tacked on a break of 44 Wota Recce trot to work on a ntvt.tv which ell just throe short of tho century.

Although slower than usual, Reece played pretty billiards, and was a little unforrunata in a rather difficult Tun-through loser. For some time after this the breaks ruled small; but, in spite of that. Recce's -nlav always interesting to watch. He mnrU ..1 clover strokes one, a white screw loser whpn the balls were very awkwardly nlanoH the applause of tho spectators. Runs of 49 and 43 ay inman were neutralised Dy Dreajcs amounting to 39 and 41 from Reeoe, and with the leader leaving tho balls well nlaoed at.

tho tsn nt d. table Recce quickly settled down to a good game. Playing delightful billiards." ho was never really in difficulties but. with the break amounting, to 195, he failed in attempting an awkward run-through loser. It was Reece at something like his best, and that means much.

Obviously tho spectators were delighted to see him lessening the big gap that divided the two soorcs. and they gave him a warm round of applause when, at his -next visit to the table inman Having nad a very snort visit he contributed another century run the exact total oeing iw oerore no railed at a Jong loser. Again he played pretty billiards, his delicate manipulation being much admired. But Inman soon levelled up matters again by means of a contribution of 155, a sterling break, the principal feature of which was good hazard and long cannon play. A few "hands" later Reeoe was seen to great advantage in a break of 216.

His delicate work again delightful. His oloae cannon play being particularly clever. Once or twice he had face a difficult position, but -ihe easily put tilings right again' by means of a clever -stroke, and so easy did everything seem to be that-it was difficult to understand how' it' was that his opponent had got so far ahead.

RACING SEASON. GETTING BEAD FOR TO MOEROW'S MEETING. A week of mingled hopes and fears has been brought to a close with a positive declaration that racing will begin at to-morrow and that the Grand National will certainly be run.

Many remarkable circumstances have combined to make the past week memorable, one to racegoers. In last week's issue it was stated that very complete arrangements had been made py tne Mall Uazette in connec tion with its service of turf news, and on Tuesday that journal published the following We have ihe leil possiMe iitthcrlty for stating that neither Mr. J. B. Joel's Spanish Prir.c: nor Sunspot toill ran for the Lincolnshire Handicap.

The reason for this decision is that coring to the continual rain the gallops at Wantage are in a -very bad state and that it is impossible to train horses for a race so close at hand." To say that tho news created a sensation only mildly states the case. Id many quarters there was a disposition to doubt its authenticity, but in club circles it produced such a profound impression that the market preferred to mark time rather than follow in the wake of the sceptics. Four days later the news was officially endorsed, and Spanish Prince and Sunspot were struck out of the Lincolnshire. This incident may be regarded as a fore runner of the reliability of the Turf news which the Pall Mall Gazette has in store for its readers. To-morrow's issue will mark the intro duction of many new and special fea tures in the sporting page of the Pall Mall Gazette." Its corps of special contributors are not only writers of note in the realm of sport, but they will from time to time keep the paper abreast of the times in regard to infor mation the value of which readers will soon learn to recognise.

UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE FINAL STAGES OF PRACTICE. The practice of the University crews is almost over, ana it is noc ex pec tea uiac anv more heavy work will bo attcmDted before tho rn The pust fortnight has brought unpleasant weauiur oouuiLiuna xor me spectators. Out on A.X. 1. 1 i.

Ud to the resent Oxford have rownH nvnr tne tun course twice and. am bridge once; each crew has done a time test from Hammersmith to-Putney, as well as various shorter distances, Oxford being credited with a record in one or two cases. This year, however, owing to the largo amount of land water coming down, time tests are even more confusing and untrustworthy than usual: indeed, bv tha pvnr- cise of a little ingenuity they may be made comforting to the -partisans of either side. Still, there is little doubt that the Cambridge crew has made great improvement during the past week, and the prospects of a fine race next at least for a while, are decidedly britrhter.

especially if the conditions of wind and water do not tell against the lighter crew. There is one point which the Cambridge men would do well to take seriously, and that is fitness. As a rule, the lighter crew's hest chance of winning lies in superior condition, and the sight ot several or the men arriving at the boatnouse in a taxicab is not calculator to increase the hopes of the many who wish to see them win. It is a notoworthv fact that each stroke is the son of. an Old Blue of more than ordinary tame, so that tnere wiu oe at least one pleased parent when tho race is finished.

Maybe the two will talk over old times at the banquet the same evening at tne urana xiotei, xratalgar-square. THE OXFORD CREW wound up a strenuous week wifcli boat work of jsy nature, contenting themselves, after Friday's course trial, with one outing yesterday. Jn moat unpleasant weather, they moved off from the London Rowing Chib's stool at 10.20, but if fault could be found- with the heavy haze overhanging the river, no possible outcry could be railssd against the condition of its surface, for the ebb was running away towards London as unbroken as a duck pond, the wind that has raged so violently thu whole week' past 'having died down to nothing comparatively. It was possibly duo to tihe sloppy paddling above the Thames Boathouse ancf close inshore that Mr. Hold ordered 'his charges to join 'him in the channel above Beverley Brook, for they rested on their oars a considerable whrlo to listen to the distasteful tihings 'he reeled off, bow's tendency to lop down at the stroke's conclusion to the irrecoverable point, imparting a somewhat grotesquo appearance to the Doat.

Although not having put in a vast amount of water-work on Friday, the Cambridge crew were on tne easy list yetseraay, and- effected but a single launch, jrado within ten minutes of Oxford treir boat down shore. Heading off in similar direction tt their rivals, they, however, continued their passage much further up country, the put about being ordered by Chiswiok lower end. Intent upon showing their prowess betwenn T-Tftmrnersmith Bridane and the Mils Post, undue exertion was refrained from along the Mall, and in due course tne racer drove on the ebb under Hammersmith Bounding off at top pressure, they were quickly brought to a standstill once more through a crab being caught, and as there are- no half measures with Captain Gibbon he ordered -his youngsters back again, done without wasting time over a oouoiea swinging ox cnuu.

As I hope to point out, there are golf courses with claims to greater distinction than has that at Tongue, but not one that appeals to me so much. I discovered its.

existence about a year ago by the help of Nibit's Year Book." a volume which ought to be on the shelf within reach of every golfer and with tho new issue of that book I have made its acquaintance again. The Tongue course is "a -hilly one, with dykes, whins, rushes, and a wood as the chief hazards The greens aro well kept, but small." From its position on the map. I should think that the course commands a magnificent view of the Kyle of Tongue, which is one of the salt water lochs of Sutherlandshire. It is only a nine-holes' course, but then the membership is but twenty, and from the fact that the figure was the same last year, I like to persuade myself that the committee are apt to be particular as to whom they admit. These twenty golfers, good and true, aro very content with each other, and if a visitor wants to play over their course, well, then, he must bo prepared to pay half a crown a week.

I like to think as well that the visitors are but few, for most of the courses that take one fancy are so intolerably overcrowded nowadays nor. do I think that I am not justified' in' my surmise, for the nearest station to the Tongue course is at Laihg, which is a matter of. forty miles and a hillock distant. The only, thing that makes me suspicious of Tongue is that it supports a professional, and I do not know how it does it, unless the wood, together with the whins and rushes, exert a fatal magnetism on golf-balls: At any rate, the' presence of that wood is sinister. But what a jolly place for a golfing holiday must Tongue be, if one is thoughtful enough to take with one a congenial linksman, or two, and to leave Madame behind.

The widowhood of the golfer's wife at Tongue is distressing to contemplate On Sunday the greens at Tongue get a rest. There seems to be less need for this weekly, rest at Dunfanaghy, -which is in county Donegal. Dunfanaghy has an eighteen holes' course, and ten members. These ten ought to consider themselves very lucky fellows, since the course is described as well situated on fine natural turf and a sandy soil, with plenty of natural hazards." It is not far from Rosafenna, of which the reports speak in irlowine Con sidering all that we have heard of Rosafenna it is surprising to read that it possesses only twenty-seven members. Alec Herd and George.

Duncan share the professional record, which is 75. If the discontented golfer in search of an undisturbed game is not satisfied with any of the clubs mentioned above, he might go np to the top of the map and try Westray and Kirkwall. The Westray course is low and on "good sandy soil." It is further mentioned that all the hazards are natural, which may mean either of two things. The course is of nine holes, and its 'chief attraction to the golfer, I have indicated, is that the number oi' holes exceeds the number' of members by one. In addition to Westray, Orkney.possesses three other courses.

Strbmness advertises that good bathing can be had from the sixth tee," which is scarcely worthy, of mention, since there are quite a number of courses round London that are at present able to offer tho same diversion on many of their greens, lbs Shetland Club has two courses and 115 members. The 1912 Nisbit's relieves our minds on one important point. The previous issue, after telling us that the Donaghadee Club possesses 265 male and 116 lady members, an eighteen holes course, a professional, a view of the Scotch coast, of the Isle of Man (on a clear day), and hot luncheons in the clubhouse on. baturdays and special holidays after narrating these things bo tnat we, longed, to start off for Donaghadee without delay, added: No "information. 'fwtwo'p'ears.

This club may not exist." The 1912 issue, while omitting any reference to the. view of Scotland and to the hot luncheons- (which we must all regret), hag omitted the ominous suggestion that Donaghadee may be -e Mrs. Harris of golf courses. It 'is by no means too early to set about considering where one's summer golfing holiday is to rbe spent, and this pleasant exercise is more useful if we make up our minds what exactly we can do without. There are a lot of people on the look-out for a seaside course of good quality, where the accommodation is ample and inexpensive, where (should the weather be wet) there is something to do besides golf, and where the course is never crowded, and it is distressing to know that such a course has not yet been laid out this side of the Styx, most formidable of all water hazards.

There is something more to be said for the Tongue course. Not only is it forty miles from a station, but it is a long way off. I know several people whom I would like to send to Tongue. YESTERDAY'S GAMES. BIARRITZ v.

Unless something rather unexpected ooeuxs Burnfley will find themselves in tfte First Division next season, though whether Chelsea, Derby County, or Hull City will accompany them is a very dou'btfal point. As tho three first-mentioned teams were sucocesful yesterday, there are no of note to record so far as these clubs are oonoerned. The position, however, is full of possibilities, and anythiiiff might yet happen. Perhaps the outstanding: feature of the Second Division matches was FulhanVs viotory over Leeds City.

Granted that the advantag-o of being at home means a good deal to a side, it cannot be said that such an overwhelming viotory bad been anticipated by Fulham's supporters. After the interval there was only one team in it, and this was evidenced by the fact that in tho second half F'lhom acore3 no fever t.hn.n five tiiriefs.

As. however, the Rangers were successful yesterday defeating Nort.hampton by the odd goal in three Swindon, although -they still have a couple of games in hand, can claim little, if any, advantage. ENGLAND v. SCOTLAND. DRAWN GAME AT HAMPDEN PARK.

There was a great crowd at Hampden Park, Glasgow, yesterday, to witness the forty-first Association football match between England and Scotland There wore thousands waiting when the gates were opened at a quarter past one, and it is estimated that there were quite 80,000 on the ground half an hour before the game commenced. The crowd pressed so olosoly upon the playing pitch that the game could not have commenced had they not been forced book by goodly re- servo force of polioe who were called up. The result of a hardly fought game was a draw of one goal each, which means that both countries have to be content with sharing the International Championship. Tney had both beaten Ireland and Wales All the scoring was done in the first half, and, although the second portion both sides fought hard for victory, the defence proved equal to all attacks, and there was no addition to the score. Wilson obtained Sacotiamt goal ana Money equalised for England.

ADTTJ A KECOED SCOKE. CAPTAIN'S COMMENTS English hockey supremacy- is still unchallenged; and yesterday at Beckenham, before a crowd spectators, Ireland suffered the heaviest reverse since the institution of tne annual cam 63. bv 10-3.

The incessant down pour of rain which continued right, up to the conclusion of the first half Kept away many hundreds of pcoole. and had the afternoon Tirnvod fine, orobablv a record would have been established. The rival teams motored down from the City after being the guests of Alder man Sir Lflaries Uakelield at luncneon me Guildhall, and took the tield, after being photographed, about ten minutes late. The ground, tiiougn wen saluraUKl, piayea surprisingly wcu and did not cut up at all badly, as was pre dicted bv many of the experienced hockey layers who were present. At half-time England I'd bv 1 1, and ihis lead was thoroughly well deserved on the run of the game.

It is true that, the Irishmen played up with typical dash in the first ten minutes, and frequently assailed the English goal, but it was Stocks who opened the scoring tor England from a corner. Hardly had the cheering died away when Ireland by lone- oassinz. dashed into the Enclish circle, and from a beautiful centre from Meldon, Simms easily beat Powell. With both teams on an equality, England played up splendidly, and Corbett at the second attempt beat Hayes, whilc-ii minute-or two-later. Shoveller sent-out a long pass to Tindall Green, who cleverly irappcd the ball, and speeding into the circle put by Hayes, who supped lu attempting to reach the ball with his feet.

THE FINEST GOAL. In my judgment the finest goal of the thirteen scored in the game was that which caiM from the stick of Shoveller. It was the result of some remarkably clever short passing tactics by the English forwards, the bail darting from stick to stick by delicate touching, and with Shoveller last in possession the ball wont into the Irish net with wonderful rapidity There was no mistaking the earnestness and fine dash of the Irish halves, and the keen tackling of the backs, both Brown and Jones being superb, but t-ha Irishmen were a little overplayed in this half by superior stick skill combined with a superior combination force. The passing of the English halves and forwards frequently nonplussed the Irishmen, and only Jones aud Brown managed to get the ball away on various occasions. Tiiu second haif opened with Ireland attacking vigorously, and here it was that the brilliance of Bennett and Glover came into full prominence.

Despite the tanacious tackling of the home halves the Irish forwards frequently, by sheer dashing tactics, worked the ball into tne Knglish circle only to be beaten back by Powell, who saved once or twice somewhat luckily, but, ho had a slippery surface in inmt of hiin. Ireland's second goal was the subject of much gossip round the ropes loug after it was hit. Ihe ball was sent into the circlo by a long pass from Perrin, and it seemed to be travelling rapidly into the net, when Simms rushed up- and just managed to (ouch the ball, thus scoring the second goal for Ireland. But this success was short lived, as as from a rare good centre from Tindall Green, l'ridmore scored tha fifth goal for England. Attacking strongly, the English forwards, finely served by their halves, swept down on the Irish goal -time after tune, but the Irish forwards occasionally worked, the ball to the other end, and Powell saved finely from Smyth in one dangerous attacking movement.

Smith distinguished himsftlf on the English right by a fast sprint, and from bis almost perfect centre Shoveller-beat, Hayes, this making the sixth goal. Ireland was being rather overplayed and out-genera tied at thu, point, and there was a suspicion of a breakdown in the Irish intermediate line. Twice England attacked, and twice goals resulted from. Shoveller and Corbett respectively. Undismayed by these reverses, praise must be awarded the Irishmen for their determined spirit, but there was no method in their attacks, and combination, as exhibited by their rivals, was altogether a missing quantity.

A fine run by Morrison, however, brought a further, point to the Hibernians, as a lovely cross was neatly turned into the English goal by Meldon. Immediately England- retaliated, and the ninth goal was hit by Pridmore, while two minutes later Shoveller scored the tenth and last for England. In a fine desperate rally, however, one further goal accrued to Ireland, the ball being put mist Powell by Meldon, and so England gained, a memorable triumph by 10 2. In all the whole series of fixtures between these two countries England lias never before scored. 10 goals in one game against her most ancient hockev adversary, the nearest being at Dublin in 1909, whau Ireland lost by 8 0.

ENGLAND'S SUPERIORITY There was no question as to the superiority of England in every department. Well as Jones and Blown, the Irish backs, played, Bennett and Clover, though not having anything liko t-ho same amount of pressure, gave a finer and more finished display. The wonderful skill of the English halves and forwards on a greasy turf calls for high praise. The stick work was beautiful, and there was ait at'euriu-y of close passing between the three inside forwards which evoked the admiration of the onlookers. There were no failures fore or aft, and every man rose well to the occasion.

SomctiuH-s the passing between the home halves and- forwards was prettily executed; tho ball went along from stick to stick like a machine, and tho tatties on the edge of the cii-ciu were finely conceived. If the Irish halves were bustlers and keen triers the first half, they were outmatched in the second half, when the English three got well into their stride and served pass after pass to their forwards, with the result that there camo a number 'of goals for England, who actually scored six in tho last thirty-five minutes. Tlic great advantage held by England was at half, and in attack Croekford, Crockett and Stocks all played cleverly. The latter touched his' finest form. The intelligent anticipation of Crockett accounted for many subtle moves on his part, and he was almost tho mainspring of the team.

Many great attacking movements came through his initiation, and it must said that Shoveller exhibited all his old-time skill in finesse, in dribbling and in passing. Mention should be made of the clever wing play of Smith and Tindall Green. The former played one of his best games, and he was efficiently nursed by Corhett, who, too, revealed much cleverness in passing to Shoveller, and the way he followed up shots at Hayes With the home halves all up to the standard, it was' almost impossible for the forwards to play poorly, and Corbett; Shoveller and Pridmore were all past masters in the svrt of close and finished passing, coupled with subtle stick work. Both Bennett and Clover in clearing saw that their passes were -sent to the right players on the other hand, there was a disposition to wildness in the hitting of Jones and Brown, though I thought the latter played a remarkably strong game, his tackling "being something to admire under adverse circumstances. One could not blame Powell for the three goals which, were scored against him, buf I thought, him-somewhat lacking in judgment at the crucial moment.

A little more steadiness in the circle by the Irish forwards in both halves might have resulted in at least tworor three more -additional goals. IRELAND'S WEAKNESS. That Ireland was weakened by the withdrawal of Peterson, Beattie and Foot admits of no -denial, yet England was in every de- gartmeut altogether superior, especially i scientific touches and expert finish. Nothing could been finer at times than -England's passing as between tie half and forwards. Here it.

was then where Ireland was absolutely beaten. There was a crudenesB in tievclriah passing the stick HONOUfiS EVEN. SOME GOOD PERFORM-. Oxford and Cambridge tied in the annual athletic sports held at Queen's Club yesterday, each University winning five events. Heavy rain fell during the morning, and during the first few events, but the track was surprisingly fast, and in very good order.

Some remarkable racing was seen by a fine crowd, who, despite the bad conditions, had gathered in expectation of some fine racing. They were rewarded by seeing one of the hneat meetings of recent 'years. One record was equalled, while another was beaten, both by the same runner, D. MacmUlan, who equalled his own record of 10 sees, in' the 100 yards, and beat the standing record of 49 3-5 sees, accomplished by W. in 1896 in the quarter-mile by one-fifth of a second.

Further there was a fine long jump by H. S. 0. Ashdtigtoo, who cleared over twenty-three feet, a. distance not accomplished since G.

C. Vassall cleared 23ft. 5ins. in 1899. The race for.

the three miles between E. Gawam Taylor and C. H. A. Porter, both of Oxford, was also most exciting to watch.

The meeting waa opened by the race for the 100 yards. As was expected, D. Macmillaa won easily, and though tihe. distance between him and H. M.

Mcintosh, the Cambridge second string, only given, as a foot and a-half, it appealed that he won. by considerably more. As ueuaii, he was behind ait half-way, but camimg with his usual rush, won in, time that equalled Jus own record of last year. Even time has- also been acoarraplisihed tthxeo times before, but' so long ago as azul 1873, When timing was hardly so accurate as at Cambridge thus had a magnificent send-off. The next two events, so far as most spectators were concerned, were very dull, and were botth decided at Uhe same time.

They were the High Jump' and Weight. W. O. Ziegler won the latter with a good pot of 40ft. which was considerably below some of bis former practice puts.

The high jump was- disappointiinjg, and was won by J. O. Maetenoan, Oxford's second strane, with a moderate jump of 5ft. 8ms. Masterman will probably be awarded nns tuu ctrae tor nis victory.

Oxford thus led by two events to one, but the hurdle race made matters' once again equal. H. S. O. Ashington.

who won in the slow time of is by no means a pretty hurdler, but he is very quick between. He knocked over two hurdles, but still was able to win bv his suoerior Dace. The other per formers were very second class. The next race was the quarter-mile, in which a great race was anticipated between D. MacmiUan and G.

It. I. Anderson, both of whom accomplished even time in practice, Anderson arew insiae position, with Macmillan next. The Tace as a fight between the two men was disappointing as Macmillan led from beginning to. end and won bv five vards in record time.

Macmillan ran himself to a standstill, and was accorded a great reception on returning to the pavilion. Anderson running was disazvDointinir. as. after appearing to have almost caught Macmillan at the last corner, he leu away again ana maae no rartner eiioru Cambridge were thus one event in front. Oxford winning the mile once more made affairs equal.

The mile was noticeable for several things. Firstly, A. S. Jackson won in very last time secondly, us pace-maxing by Cambridge second) and third strings was verv poor: and. thirdly.

Moore's pace-makine for Jackson in the last lap was a magnificent piece of work. UlaTke made the mistaKe oi making his effort -too soon, and Moore, realising this, took htm along as if he, not Jackson, was out to win. Moore rah Clark-off his legs and then eased up for Jaolcson. to win by eight vards. It was a hne enort on Moore part and thoroughly appreciated by Jackson and sDectatora since.

xne lone lump ami nammer were pcrcn de cided at the same The hammer, was disapDomtincr. the conditions may be largely responsible for this. The long jump was won bv A. s. u.

witn a nne jump of over 23 feet. He had best style ol jumping ot any ot- tne competitors. WfLb two events to come, the three miles and tie half-mile, botih Universities were still equal with four victories, each. It appeared certain that the nnai result must oe a oraw, for dt was known that Gawan, Taylor or Porter -would win the mile for Oxford, while Cambridge supporters felt sure that P. J.

Baker would win the half. Both expectations were realised, and in both cases fine and exciting races were. seen. Long before tiie second mile was finished in tihe tnree males race me tam-hridee first straw. R.

Jforter Jed most oi tne way, but half-way through the last lap Taylor went in front, and, both finishing very strongly, won by six yards in time only twice before beaten. The record would probably hae been' beaten but for a slow first mue. RESULTS.
