THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 22, 1950:
A CENTRAL GOVERNING AUTHORITY IS NEEDED FOR BRITAIN'S SPORT
SAYS JOHN MACADAM
It is a long time since we acquired enough common sense to reject the idea of a Ministry of Sport-an idea that in flaming, mili- tant youth seemed the answer to all the wrongs of the commercial in- dustry that has grown around a few simple games,
Mature judgment and experience in the social machine indicates that if you show us a Ministry we, in very many cases, will show you a "dead man" angle, and that would apply with particular emphasis to sport.
This
is deplorable, as are all the fix ture clashes to which we have frequently drawn attention.
Nevertheless, the mess that the organisers of professionally run games get into from time to time is little less than cannon fodder for the boys who press constantly for a central governing authority for all sport in this sceptred isle.

Derby County May Have Part With Billy Steel Or Johnny Morris

"Through being beaten today we have lost about £10,000 by failing to make the Cup semifinals and Finals, but I shall get back £20,000 before the end of the season."-That was the cryptic remark made to me by Manager Stuart McMillan, of Derby County, after his side had suffered a 2-1 shock home defeat by Everton. It offer? can mean only one thing; Derby are going to sell. Who have they to Obviously, one or both of the two greatest inside club forwards in the game today- Billy Steel, of Scotland and/or Johnny Morris, of England.
When they were linked together by Morris' transferring from Manchester United, I smelt trouble for both are temperamental; both want to be among the goals. Well, against Everton we saw neither of them; in fact, I was told they were not playing well for Derby although they always shine for their respective countries. My guess is that either or both will leave before the end of the season or when their contracts expire in July.
