There's No Such Phenomenon As A One-Man Team'
Says ARCHIE QUICK
Despite all that has been written about John Charles there is no such phenomenon as 2 "one-man team." Nearer to it than Leeds United even are Colchester United, who ride on top of the Third Division South for the first time in their short and chequered League career.
The dynamo which drives the Layer Rond club Is player-mannger Benny Fenton, Soccer's one-man band and the closest to perpetual motion one could find on a football field. Fenton, the only player for whom Chariton manager Jimmy Sced ever paid any real money in his long stay at 'The Valley, is a slave-driver, but he never asks his men to do anything he would not attempt himself,

'MORE HONOURS FOR THE MAESTRO
Stanley Matthews, England's greatest soccer player, is pictured receiving a symbolic stool of chieftainship, the highest honour the Gold Coast can beslow, from T. Hutton-Mills, the Gold Coast Commissioner in London, and Mrs Hutton-Mills. It was a gift from the Accra Hearts of Oak Football Club, to mark Stan's 25 years' service to the game. Stan intends to visit the Gold Coast this year, has also been invited to play in Hongkong in May.---Express Photo.
Women Athletes Point The Way To Success In The Olympics
By STAN TOMLIN
In the sports which are now an established part of the Olympic programme Britain's sportswomen had, prior to Melbourne, only ever gained four titles; two for swimming-the 4 x 100 Metres Relay in 1912, and the 200 Metres Back Stroke in 1924
--and two for figure skating (in 1908 and 1952 respectively).
