STARS

Nandor Hidegkuti, the man who, three years ago, set the new Soccer standard for the Western world with the deep-lying centre-forward game, the other day spoke for 36 of Europe's most famous footballers when he told me:

"None of my team. Voros Loboga (known in England as Red Banner), or Honved will accept any offers from Halian, French, Austrian, or any other source. We are sticking together-ONE FOR ALL, AND ALL FOR ONE.“
