The story of how one man and his French savoir-faire turned Arsenal from a defense-minded unit into English champions playing the sexiest football in the Premier League. Profiles of Arsenal's 23 French players from past and present who helped Arsene Wenger achieve his success.
At Wembley in 1966, England’s football captain Bobby Moore received the World Cup from Queen Elizabeth and FIFA president Stanley Rous. This book takes the life of Rous (1895-1986) as a lens through which to understand the escalating profile of football both nationally and globally. It illuminates how it was possible for Rous to emerge from a Suffolk village and ascend to the top of FIFA’s hierarchy and the company of elites. Educational opportunities, service in the Great War and an international referee’s profile prepared Rous for the position of Secretary at The Football Association, alongside charity work in World War II and organisational responsibilities for the London 1948 Olympics. His FIFA role combined diplomacy with development, in post-colonial times of volatile international relations. The book informs scholars and fans alike, showing too that Rous’s crowning achievement as FIFA President at the 1966 World Cup marked a peak for England’s power and influence in world football.

Tests of Cambridge absolute filters, Model Sl-071, specified for use in the GCR-ORR Loop No. 2 as full-flow, primary coolant fiiters were completed. kD. O.P/ (dioctylphthalate) efficiency tests were performed on three filters in the as-received condition, on two filters following canning and thermal cycling, and on one of the canned fiIters following bsking out. None of the three units met the design criteria of 99.97% efficiency for removal of 0.3 micron particles in the as-received condition. The postthermal cycle efficiencies of the canned fiIters were slightly higher than their respective as-received efficiencies. At the corapletion of testing, the two fiiters canned for installation in ...
