THE COLD WAR' IN SOCCER

By IVAN SHARPE

When the Russian footballers made their bow in Britain in November, 1945, they were first class on the Geld of play. Off the field, they were dillcult, evasive, Garbo-like.

We had our arguments about what was right and what was wrong, but in the disagreements there was a round-table nothing serious, and the visit closed with talk almed at explaining the different points of view. How are things today? Form your own conclusions about politics and sport..

CLUB STEWARDS DEALT SEVERELY WITH 14-YEAR-OLD PIGGOTT

Says Reuter's Racing Correspondent

London, Oct. 30.

The Stewards of the Jockey Club dealt severely with the 14-year- old boy prodigy, Lester Piggott, in taking his licence away to ride for the remainder of the 1950 season.

There will be many who will feel that perhaps the leading men in the Bri- tish racing world took too drastic a step in making this decision. Others will approve the fact that the Jockey Club Stewards are determined to keep racing in this country as fair and injury-free as is possible.

Nothing is officially known about what happened when the chubby-facel boy was called before the Stewards, Lord Irwin, the Earl of Sefton and Major R. MacDonni Buchanan, all three of them race-horse owners.

It is, however, known young Piggott was reported the Jockey Club Stewards tay the local Stewards of Newbury (Berkshire) Jacecourse.

DANGEROUS RIDING

It can, therefore, be surmised that the Newbury Stewards told the parent body that they considered the youngter had ridden dangerously.

Britain's

Greatest

Boxing Muddle

Settled

Postwar Could Be

By O'Sullivan

Says ARCHIE QUICK

A combination of circumstances has contrived to produce Britain's greatest postwar boxing muddle. It all started when Vic Toweel,'ʼn South African of Syrian parentage, took advantage of the high Johannesburg aliltude and an ageing, op ponent and prised the world's bantamweight title from Manuel Ortiz, American- Mexican.

At the first favourable opportunity, the British champion, Danny O'Sullivan, through his manager, Mr_Benny Huntman, sought und obtained a championship fight with Toweel in the Rand capital. I saw Toweel when he was over in England in 1948 for the Olympic Games, and I would say that O'Sullivan would always have a reasonably good chance of beating him and bringing the crown back to the country that last' held it when Joe Bowker was king-pin of the 8 st 7 lbs. division.
