I understand that there are special reasons why Chelsea have been able to socure Croal, and that there is nothing sordid in the deal. Crood is a school toucher, ansious to secure a scholastic appointment in London, and that Choises have been obliged to pay no dearly for him in a matter that has to do with Fal hirk, whose officials, like any other body of commercial people, austurally got the best price possible. I am quite pre paned to believe that there are special circumstallets connected with the trans fur of Croul to Chaises, and, in my use, I would not, as I have already said, contrad that bees in charge of the West Bender club have done some What Croal's transfer has cost I do thing another olub, equally zich, would not know, but as likely as zot the fee" not have done.
