1- Foster Hugh Egerton Cunliffe.  
On his form in 1893 as well as 1894, there were few better Public School Cricketers than F. H. E. CUNLIFFE, of Eton.  Last year his all-round cricket was one of the most striking features of the Eton and Harrow match.  In addition to a capital score of thirty-two he took thirteen Harrow wickets at an average cost of just over seven runs.  His excellent show on that occasion was alone sufficient to assure him a thorough trial at Oxford this summer.  Unfortunately an injury to his head handicapped him considerably in the earlier matches, and though he obtained his Blue he was hardly seen to advantage, certainly not in the Inter-University match.  As an all-round Cricketer he has yet to be seen at his best.  A left-handed bowler, he mixes his bowling with skill, and on wickets more in favour of the ball than they have been this year, is pretty certain to do well.  By no means a bad bat, he is also a fine field.

2- Francis Eden Lacey.
Some ten years ago there were few better batsmen, certainly none more attractive in style, than Mr. F. E. LACEY.  Educated at Sherborne School, he subsequently got his "blue" at Cambridge, and at a period when the University Eleven were decidedly above the average.  Subsequently he did brilliant service for Hampshire, Captaining the Eleven when the County was struggling to reassert itself.  For a few years he was one of the highest scorers in County cricket, and one of his big innings-his 323 (not out) against Norfolk in 1887-will not readily be forgotten.  Latterly he has been rarely seen in first-class cricket, though he has this year once assisted Hampshire.  Over six feet in height and with commanding style, he is an excellent type of the free bat.  With plenty of hits and great power, he scores fast all round the wicket.  A good field, he has also been of use at times as a slow bowler.

Condition is Very Good.
