TWO CRUCIAL BOWLS LEAGUE GAMES TODAY WOLVES PAY IN
I Applaud England's Accent On Youth Policy-But I Also Have Misgivings
Says TOM FINNEY
(Of Preston and England)
What lies ahead for England? Has her international slide been halted?
Will she once again be the world's "Soccer Masters?"
These questions have been sparked off by the news that the accent will now
be on youth.
Most people, I imagine, will applaud this polley. I do, but I have my mis
givings too.
I feel it would be a great mistake to replace a seasoned veteran solely for the purpose of building for the future. All the great teams of the post-war years contained a blend of youth and experience.

SCARS FOR FIRST POINTS
BY ROY PESKETT
Wolves, chasing a League championship hat-trick, have already run into serious trouble. Last Saturday, in the tough local derby with Birmingham, Peter Broadbent was injured and will be out for at least four games. Grêm manager Stanley Cullis told,me also of minor damage suffered by Eddie Clamp, Mickey Lill, and skipper Eddie Studrt.
In the first division the clash between league-leading Indian po
Recreation Club "A" and second-placed Kowloon Dock Club may decide the league title.
With a lead of 3% pointer over the Dock, the Indians cari make the championship theirs this afternoon by winning by a 4-1 or a 6-0 margin. That will put them beyond the reach of any other team in the last league Aixtures nezi weck.
A 5-0 victory for the Dock club will put them in a very good potillon of winning the title, as they have a very good chance of, Inking, the necessary four points to finish at the top of the table.
