Two of the world's greatest footballers, Hun- garian Ferenc Puskas and Argentinian Alfredo Di Stefano, gave a crowd of more than 135,000 roaring Scots the football treat of a lifetime here tonight as they helped Real Madrid beat the West German side Eintracht Frankfurt 7-3 in the European Cup Final.
Puskas scored four goals and Di Stefano three for the unstoppable Madrid team, who have now won the trophy for the fifth time-ever since its incep. tion in 1956.
The West German team were by no means dis- graced and were first to score, but they were finally overrun by the costly, star-studded Spanish perfec- tionists-Reuter.

A happy event and the recurrence of a tropical ill

Denmark's Torbon Ulrich, suffering from the same illness which overtook him during his Indian tour two years ago, is undergoing treatment in Lon- don and will be absent from Denmark's team for the Devis Cup European Zone quarter- final match against France on June 10, 11 and 12.

Retired
Bad luck continued to hit the Scandinaviary players when Sweden's Jan Erik Lundquist e- tired at the beginning of the third set in his first round match against Australle's Don Candy.
The Australian won the first two seta 6-4, 6-2. Lundquist said afterwards that he had been. awake most of the night with a bleeding nose.
"I simply did not have the strength to carry on" he said.
Denmark's Kurt Nielsen who played indifferent tennis was
