"Nobody has written a real study of the 67, QUEEN'S ROAD" CENTRAL
English spirit in sport; simply because nobody has written a real study of the English spirit of romance and peotry. The truth is that sport is an escape into
a sort of fairyland of happy unreality; A marvellous country where wounds are healed by magic, or where souls and bodies are protected by enchanted shields.
It
is a fairyland of hitting, people. without hurting there, and above all without hat- ing them. Other nations have got quite as much activity and quite as much ex- citement out of other things, such as duela or civic riota or tribal fends. But there as such soil for geniality and generosity
