Describes Lionel Hallam Tennyson's captaincy of an imagined game on a hot day with a perfect pitch and a few inquisitive wasps which "circle noisily round the captain's head at mid-off, and he smacks at them with a large hand." Alec Kennedy and Jack Newman, George Brown, Walter Livsey, Alec Bowell and Phil Mead are fondly recalled.
