Only In Great Britain KISS FROM THE MAESTRO
Is Sports Sponsoring Frowned Upon
Says ARCHIE QUICK
In Great Britain where sports-sponsoring of any kind is frowned_upon- whether it be by Government, Pools, TV or commercial concerns—one lifts one's eyebrows to learn that in Brazil, the Government has helped Sao Paulo FC to build a gigantic new stadium with a subsidy of £700,000, repeat £700,000!
It is hoped to hold an International tournament there, and Manchester United have been invited. My information, however, is that Birmingham City will be the English representatives.
