THE POPULARITY OF

CRICKET IS

ON THE WANE

This is going to shock a lot of people, but is the popularity of cricket-yes, said CRICKET-on the wane?

Geoffrey Dyson, chief coach to the Amateur Athletic Association, and the

man behind our sensational European Games successes, thinks it is

Supporters

Here is something new in rugby football-the Rugby Followers Association of Bedford. With a membership of over 150, their object is not only to sopport the best matches at Bedford, and some of Bedford's away games, but also to attend Northampton and Coventry matches, international, university and county ixtures.

The Association's idea is to see good rugby wherever and by whoever it is played. So that their members may all appreciate the finer points of the game, the Association has asked rugby personalities to talk to them. First of these is to be "Mike" Henderson, former Scottish international, on September 22.
