PUSKAS MAY BE DROPPED

BY REAL MADRID IN EUROPEAN CUP SEMI-FINAL

Madrid, May 5.

The great Hungarian footballer, Ference Puskas, who led the famous "Hungarian wizards" a few seasons ago, may be dropped by the Real Madrid Club for the second log of the European Champion Clubs Cup semi-final against Atletico Madrid here on Thursday afternoon.

Puskas, at his peak when Hungary beat England 7-1 back in 1954, has now slowed down and no longer appears at ease against the type of young and fast players playing for Atletico.

MCC To Decide

On Knotty Scoring Problem

London, May 5.

When the scores are level in a cricket match and the batsmen run two or three runs for a stroke should the scorem record only the one run needed for victory?

This knotty problem is to be adjudicated upon by the MCC cricket committee towards the end of this month.

The point arose again today at the Oval when. P.G. Joshi, a member of the Indian

touring team, hit a. two agninst the Club Cricket Conference eleven
