EXCHANGE
Blow To Big Transfer Fees For Vaunted Players
A new era of exchange, and a blow to big transfer fees, which on some occasions in recent years have soared to fantasile heights, may have started with the deal between Arsenal and Coventry as a result of which Bobby Davidson went to Coventry and Les Janes to Arsenal. Arsenal paid the balance with a check for about £2,- .000.
