Popular SFL identity TOM KENNY was away recently in the USA. During his stay in Los Angeles he visited the famous Disneyland complex at Anabein. Tom's the smaller guy on the left of the pie. Ask Tom when you see him, I'm not certain whether his "friend" is a prospective recruit for East in '81. By the look on "friend's" face, Tom has just spun one of his famous yarns.
It's interesting to note that with both matches being played in Brisbane last Sunday, the rugby game Queensland v NZ drew 12,000 to Ba//ymore, the Queensland-VF L game had a 16,000 turn out to the Gabba. cont. page -19 8 \. Always up to the mark!
