tables would have been turned, and that we should not have
won only by one short length, however all this will be record-
ed elsewhere. Of course we lost the toss for the 4th time in
succession.
Next season's football is not very promising unless some
big fellows come, as we hear on good authority, will be the
case.
Let us conclude by hoping that all Neuenheimers
past and present, be they big or small will still continue to do
cr«dit as in the " times of yore," to the oldest English School
on the continent.
Cricket.
Neuenheim College v. Heidelberg Town.
Played on 8th May. Hodges won the toss and elected to
bat. B. A. Hill I and Bagot started the School innings when
Bagot was bowled without scoring. Kilgour followed with
the total at 6. A stand was now made by Hodges and Hill
and 26 was signalled before Hodges was caught by Mr.
Girdlestone for a well-played 15. Fleming and F. W. Hill
were both bowled by Goldsmith with the total at 31. Gunter,
the new comer, soon commenced to hit merrily but soon lost
his partner, B. A. Hill, who had played sound but slow
cricket. Gunter and Warren now became associated and
were not parted till Gunter had to leave, having compiled 24
by sound hitting. The end soon oame, the last three batsmen
failing to score, and the innings closed for the moderate total
of 77. The Town sent in Mr. Kent and Mr. Hill, the latter
succumbing to a catch by Fleming. Taylor was bowled for a
duck but Lee stayed with Mr. Kent and brought the total to
27, when a magnificent catch in the long field by Hill II
ended Mr. Kent's career. The remaining batsmen failed to
add many runs to the score and the innings closed with the
total at 46. In the second innings the School scored 37 for
five wickets.
