--> Bowling in the Northamptonshire Second XI second innings adds 170 runs under

AH Bakewell was due to play in this match, his first since being injured in the car accident that killed RP Northway in 1936. It was reported that he could not play as he was 'coaching A Meehan of Peterborough'. He was requested to report to the Northampton ground for further treatment on his wrist.
LD Thursting of Leicestershire fielded substitute for Bakewell at the start of the match
