Look out! England is being invaded. No, not by green-haired Martians, but by humans in coloured shirts and elastic-topped shorts. And they look as if they mean business. See those boots with studded soles and steel-capped toes.

They do mean business. They are footballers invading the cricket season. While we still await the summer, with the County and Test cricket campaigns barely half over, the soccer men are already training for an opening day, just a

Records Likely To Fall

At Empire

Games

Vancouver, B.C., July 28.

Burring bad weather, athletes from England, Australia and other Common- wealth nations are expected to rewrite the record book during the four-day track and field programme at the British Empire Games opening on Friday,

At least 21 records should fall in the 30-event programme, Lloyd Percival, re- garded as Canada's top track coach, predicted today. Percival, Director of Sports College in Toronto and named head coach of the country's track and field teața, made a survey of athletes who will compete here before pressure of business forced him to relinquish the assignment.
