Sir Stanley Rous, writing the editorial of the FA Bulletin, says: "England must face the fact that, temporarily at any rate, certain countries have achieved a England standard of play of a selected national side which is in advance of ours. can reach the forefront again by determination, but it means we must re-think our whole approach to international football bearing in mind that whatever steps are taken must be related to the highly organised League system?"
of The words "selected national eleven," he explains, mean that the success elever men, an infinitesimal percentage of a whole nation's population, is often losely associated with national prestige. "We may argue," Sir Stanley goes on "That the rest of the world has got the whole thing out of proportion, but, be that aw it may, the fact remains that if England continues to compete against the Con- more serious in breads and South Americans we must be prepared to be much the eletion and training of our teams."

Western Germany Is Headed
For Its Biggest
Boom In

By
NORMAN LINDHURST
Bonn,
Western Germany is headed for its biggest boom in international horse-racing since the war. Germany-for the first time is now exporting prize race-horses rivalling the Anglo-Arab strain and the Irish hunter.
Auctions are held regularly at Verden and Dusseldorf, and draw racing experts from all over the world. Hanover, in particular, is making great efforts to stock through careful crossings with breed faster and more durable hot-blooded thoroughbred stallions in the Hanoverian State.

European Swimming Championships
Turin, Sept. 2.
Hungary'a supremacy in the European Swimming Championships was again emphasised today when Gyorgy Tumpek won the final of the men's 200 Metres Butterfly Stroke event. This gave Hungary four wins in seven Anals.
↑
Tumpok, who holds the world record for 100 Metres Butterfly swimming, won in two minutes, 32-2/10 seconds. A notable failure was Herbert Klein of Germany, the world and European record holder, who after just scrap- ing into the qualifters finished last of eight in the final.
Another disappointment was the fallure of Jack Wardrop, one of the Scottish twins, to qualify for the final of the men's 400 | Metres Free Style in which he was considered to have a fair chance.
World record holder Geerlje Wielema gained Holland's first succes in the Championships by winning the women's 100 Metres Backstroke Anal. She was chpsed home second behind by her compatriot,
