Bernard Joy's New Book An Ideal Manual
For All Soccer Teams
London.
If there is any player-writer today fully qualified to write on tactics at soccer (football) it is Bernard Joy, university gradunte, schoolmaster, amateur Inter- national, Arsenal centre-half and now a football writer for one of England's lending newspapers.
Joy has set down in a book, entitled "Soccer Tactics" (published by Phoenix House Lid - 12/6), the qualities which make a winning team. The book is accom- panied by diagrams ami pictures which, though, obviously of greater value and in- lcrest to the expert, are also interesting to all students of this now national game,
The book is an ideal manual
for all leums, from the lowly village side to the top amateur and even the professional, who want to learn how to win.
Since he gave up playing with and against the greatest men in the sport, Joy has covered for International Jils newspaper

1,000 RUNS
London, June 12.
Tom Graveney today became the first player to reach a total of 1,000 runs for the season. In this way he must have given the selectors another nudge before they settle down to pick the team for the second Test against the West Indies.
