KEY MEN TUSSLES MAY DECIDE SATURDAY'S
IMPORTANT CUP
CUP TIES
Says TOM FINNEY
4
Football matches often develop into tussles between key men. The individual performances of players like Trevor Ford, Stan Matthews, Andy Graver and Harry Hooper against their immediate opponents turn the whole course of a match.
That's why I am so interested in the fifth-round ties of the FA Cup to be played next ufurday (February 19). Ir, for instance, Leon Leuty, the Notts County centre-half, can blot out Boy Bentley, the Chelsen centre-forward, then Notts County will be well on the road to victory...

Not Guilty, My Lord

course,
I have been reading some correspondence-not in this journal, of whose readers naturally would not think of such a thing, but in a golfing magazine -about the irrelevancies and inaccuracles of writers on golf. To which I can only give the schoolboy's reply, "Not me, sir. No, sir, I told him not to, sir."
As to the irrelevancies, I have always thought the fact that the winter sun was glinting on the weathercock on Rye church three miles away across the marsh to be more interesting than Mr Blank's repeated declaration that had he not taken three putls seven times he would have won by 2 and 1 instead of losing, as he did, by 5 and 4.

Spider Starts A Big Break

Diagram A illustrates a position which faced me during an exhibition framo of snooker only few evenings ago. How would you play in these circum- stances?
Consider it as a break-building problem. It is diff- cult, I know, but only by attempting advanced play will you secure a greater knowledge of the game. The main thing is to have plenty of confidence in whatever problem you are tackling and not to shun any one of the imple- ments provided to help you.
If you look at Diagram B, You will per that I called for the Spider in order to take the red over the middle right-hand pocket. 1 fully realised that la doing so was taking a ris but my purpose was to clear the tables.
