Dope row hits Italy
BUT BRITAIN STICKS
TO PEP TALKS
By SIR GEORGE GRAHAM
(Former Secretary of Scattish_FA)

Two sensational results have landed Bari in trouble-a 3-1 victory over Hibs Fairs Cities Cup opponents Roma, and a draw with AC Milan. Now a complaint that the club's players are given pep pills before every big game is in the hands of the Italian FA.
