Says HAROLD MAYES
Bogota that spot on the South American map which put fear into the hearls of Soccer folk here some 13 months ago is in the news again. That doesn't mean that the people to whom the music of turnstiles is sweeter than anything which ever came through a loudspeaker have anything to worry about in the Im- mediate future, but the time will come.

And not because of that mid-week suggestion of an offer to 14 English stars to go on Coaching-plus-playing trip. That kidded no-one, except perhaps the Football Asso-
