[Fbbruary Here I recall scenes of the ** noble game ** played out for the sake of victory only. Here I see some of the best players in the Schools and University matches, and whose fame went far beyond them in after life. Ryle of Eton, now Bishop of Liverpool ; Wilde of Winches- ter, now Lord Penzance Lee of Winchester and Warden of Win- chester College, famous in Hamp- shire matches, with R. Payne, Chlorpromazine Hydrochloride a noted longstop in the county, also a Wykehamist. Here, too, I see Harenc and Chlorpromazine 25 Mg Anson, and Pickering and Taylor, with the Hon. R. Grimston and Hon. F. Ponsonby, and many more, if time and space allowed. Here, too, as in 1836, I gaze on a scene of deeper interest, the grand match of Gentlemen v. Players of England, when the Gentlemen, I believe, won their first victory. And what an array of fighting men ! Verily " there were giants in those days." Alfred Mynn, a mighty man of valour and a tower of strength, a mar- vellous bowler and batsman, with Walter Mynn, his brother, the only Chlorpromazine Brand Name man who could act as long- stop to his terrific bowling ; Lord Grimston and the Hon. E. H. Grimston, the Hon. F. Ponsonby and the present Sir H. Jenner Fust, captain, with Taylor and Pickering on one side, opposed by Pilch and the two Wenmans, Cobbett, Bailey, Redgate and Beasley on the other. Here I would copy from an old extract of the match that ** Lilly white was unable to appear for the Players, which certainly Chlorpromazine Injection Chlorpromazine Mg720 made a difference, but the Gentlemen had not their best eighteen, neither Felix, Kynaston, Knatchbull, Harenc, &c., playing." Again, I say, what a list of warriors, including Buy Chlorpromazine the above, with Sir F. Bathurst also, a grand figure of a man and power- ful bowler, whom I picture before me on several occasions, in Hants and Wilts, as engaged in the noble strife, and who in 1853, after twenty years of bowling, took the greater part of the bowl- ing at Lord's in Gentlemen v. Players and Chlorpromazine Equivalents was never changed, and helped to win it by four wickets. But I must descend from my imaginary perch and contrast the present with the past in several most important particulars. First, as to ** throwing and jerking," which have excited a great deal of criticism and Purchase Chlorpromazine Online con- demnation ; and justly so, as they are absolutely illegal and unjusti- fiable, and altogether opposed to the true spirit and interest of cricket. How such practices have been allowed to continue so long undetected and unchecked, I cannot imagine, but I rejoice to see that steps are being taken for their abandonment. As an old bowler, I never heard in my time Order Chlorpromazine that ** throwing " was ever attempted or even thought of, and the only instance of sus- picious "jerking" was that of a bowler in an Eton school match, who objected to his arm being chalked for the purpose of de- ciding the question. Jerking, of course, can only apply to under- hand bowling, and such delivery now is seldom seen, but it should be stopped by all means. Throwing, however, is quite distinct ; and if the bowler's hand and wrist were carefully observed by the umpire, the twist of both and the whole movement of the arm in throwing would at once be detected, as the delivery in throw- ing would be— in fact, must be — totally distinct from the even movement of delivery in bowling where there is no ** catchy Chlorpromazine Tablets " kind that appears in the swing of the . i9oa] AN OLD WYKEHAMISTS RBMINISCBNCES OP THE PAST. 99 arm. It seems, however, a good plan to have the umpire at each end to watch the *' throw " and be responsible for the result. Then, as to l.b.w., which naturally follows the subject of bowling, it seems to be most un- fair that a batsman should be allowed to defend his wicket with anytking but his bat. Why should the benefit of a bowler's dexterity in giving his ball Chlorpromazine Trade Name a twist or a break be denied him ? His object is to overcome the batsman's defence, and if by accuracy of aim or judgment of attack he can do this, like turning the enemy *s flank, why should any part of his person stop the ball, which, whether straight or crooked, would have hit the wicket ? Batsmen now rely so much on their gloves and pads to defend their wicket and get runs ; but such things were unheard of in early times. Mark the stride of the batsman now to the wicket like the giant of Gath, clad in armour, proudly defiant of his enemy, Novo Chlorpromazine the bowler, who, unlike the stripling of old, has no sling and stone, but the swing of his arm and ball to use against him. Though tall hats and a Chlorpromazine Thorazine Purchase Chlorpromazine mixed uniform of flannels and other materials were still in fashion, yet gloves and pads had not then been invented, and the batsmen faced the bowling of Chlorpromazine 10 Mg every kind with the care and skill that it demanded ~I have seen Pilch at Lord's with sixty runs Chlorpromazine 100 Mg to his score, still fearlessly using his forward play against Mynn's bowling, and Thorazine Chlorpromazine shaking the blood from his fingers before he lost his Chlorpromazine 25mg wicket.* Such artificial protection as is now in use would have been scouted and ridiculed in those days. * We mast ranind oar veteran contributor that as i^anis slovcs, the chivalrous law exists that a nan can be causht off his glove, and the glove is veaBya fiur sabstitute for broken fingers, and is rather advene than Cavourable to a batsman fud €&aaoes.~-£D.
