And he likened the team to the well known statement "Sports should de- mand of us the best we can give", which he was sure the team had done. } prs he said should be democratic af of all the barriers in the world, sports cut across them more than any other. Such as when coloured boys enter- ed sports, they were first accepted, as great athletes, then as great men. On a team there is no room for in- dividualism, for success comes through co-operation. And maturity develops as players accept responsibility and the upholding of fair principals, where as in life people have a tendancy to side step that which is too difficult.
