Already extended until May 18, by mutual agreement between the Football League and the Football Association, that will not allow nearly enough time to clean up the back-log of league matches and English Cup third, fourth and fifth roumd games, still to be t | played, The unprecedented winter weather, still dragging on into its eighth week of snow, ice, fog and now flooding, has com- pletely reduced the football situ- ation to a state of chaos, and same job four years ago after a Montreal - Chicago playoff game "Toe" (CP Wirephoto) ) ' the competitions can be com. pleted. The current weekend saw only seven matches played out of a total of 64, leaving 57 for which new dates will have to be found. And with more snow falling, the midweek prospects for playing off postponed. cup games looks hopeless. The seven games played only had two of any importance TT OER HE HS Fer it may well be mid-June before|___ As I anti¢ipated, the English international selectors, faced with the problem of picking a team to meet France on Feb- ruary 27 without any idea of current form, have selected 22 players from whom the final 11 will be selected a week or so be- fore the game. From this list of 22, it is easy to pick most of those who will play against France. The defensive side, subject to injuries, picks itself, with Springett in goal, Armfield and Wilson a' back; Moore, Labone and Flowers at half-back, Pick- ing the forwards from nine who have been named is not so easy. Joe Baker or Arsenal and Bobby Smith of Tottenham are the two centre forwards in. cluded, while Peacock of Middlesbrough is left out. Baker is likely to be favored over Smith, if only for his fine | | ete yee erg nd HT Hy England Will Have Soccer This Summer Due To Long Winter goal-scoring record, and I would pick the forward line as follows: Connelly, Douglas, Baker, Greaves and Chariton, OFF TO ENGLAND Two more of Scotland's top. ranking international players have gone to English clubs. Pat Crerand, Celtic half-back, has been, transferred to Manchester United for a fee of $165,000. Crerand has been an automatic choice for Scotland over the past two seasons, but he guc- cumbed to the lure of the higher pay possible in England. The same is true of Alex Scott, Rangers' outside right, who has gone to Everton at a fee of close to $120,000, It was a tug-of-war between Tottenham and Everton for this talented winger, who has played 11 times for his country, but Everton offered the better terms, and that is where the Scot has gone. NHL BIG SEVEN Brian Curvis ' By THE CANADIAN PRESS THE NHL individual scoring race tightened up at the top as the result of Frank Mahovlich's two goals for Toronto Maple Leafs and Gordie Howe's assist for Detroit Red dg? in Tor- onto's 6-2 victory Wednesday night. The big Leaf left winger re- pumping in his 28th and 29th markers to pull two goals ahead of Howe, 4 Mahovlich's performance jumped him from fifth to fourth slot in the statistics derby with a total of 56 points. Howe's assist pulled him into a second-place tie with Boston's Murray Oliver with 57 points. Howe has 27 goals and 30 as. sists, the Bruin star 20 goals and 35 assists, John Bucyk of the Bruins re. mains on top'of the list with 59 points comprised of 24 goals and 35 assists.
