ENGLAND'S Selectors meet tomorrow to pick the team to play Russia at Wembley next Wednesday—and the success of the Under-3 team hear tonight should leave them with no problems. The nimble Czechs with their guile and skill were a tremendously difficult handful for the England youngsters.
But these lads, playing in unfamiliar red shirts, were boys with the hearts and craft of men. Three of them, left half Wilf McGuinness; outside right Peter Brabrook and inside left Bobby Charlton, have already been in the full England side and I believe they will keep their places.
   The selectors are looking for a deputy for injured Tommy Banks. Tonight, Tony Allen, fair-haired Stoke City left back, only eighteen, showed that he can safely be given the job.
Unhappily there can be no room in the full England side for right half Maurice Setters, a dynamo of energy and inspiration. He was great, and if he had any fault, it was in trying to do too much work. Once the Czechs' initial thrusts had been blunted, it was only a matter of how long it would take England to go ahead. In the fifth minute Brabrook went on a great sprint down the right wing and his cross was clutched by the 'keeper at the foot of the post. Then Charlton brilliantly manoeuvred an opening for centre forward Joe Baker, but he was too slow to grasp it. The thirteenth minute was fatal for the Czechs, Setters sent inside right Jimmy Greaves streaking through. He flipped the ball to Charlton as the inside man yelled 'yes' and Mr. Dynamite Charlton blasted it in. Another Charlton thunderbolt was saved just as it was screaming inside the post, and he created another chance which Baker failed to take. Yet, in the thirty-third minute, Baker, the weak link of the England attack, harassed goalkeeper Holes and centre half Horváth into losing possession.
   Baker flicked a square pass for Greaves to hit the ball into an empty net.
Again Charlton, writing his name in flame, juggled through. But as the 'keeper catapulted across the goal Charlton's shot flashed inches wide. Promptly the Czechs brought on a substitute, Korinek, to replace Obert with the obvious job of helping to mark Charlton. It made little difference. In the first five minutes after the interval England forced four corners. The Czechs, still slick and dangerous were tamed every time by the England defence.
   Allen earned roars of applause for his cool work.
In the sixty-third minute Charlton hammered in England's third. He created an attack which the Czechs could never properly clear, and with the ball bobbing about the penalty area as if it were in a pin-table machine. Charlton first-timed it from the edge of the box—a shot that the 'keeper never even saw. On the one occasion that the Czechs managed to cut through the England defence Scherer shot wide. Baker, who improved and increased his pace as the game went on, came close to scoring in the 71st minute, but it was not his night.
   Put through perfectly by Scanlon nine minutes from the end, he slipped and missed his kick with only the keeper to beat.
Next when Baker went through brilliantly by himself, Charlton was not quick enough to run onto his pass. But these are minor quibbles. Baker undoubtedly fits in with this attack and will match the best.
   THE FUTURE OF ENGLISH SOCCER LOOKS BRIGHTER.
   

England, fielding the same Under-23 side that beat Poland, were again successful in this match at Norwich. This time their opponents fought hard all the way, and the match maintained its interest to the end. A move after a quarter-of-an-hour by Setters and Greaves gave Charlton the chance to put England ahead, and Greaves made it two before the interval after good work by Baker. In the second half Charlton scored a third after Scanlon had hit the post. Once again, Charlton stood out as the completer footballer, and he was well supported by Allen, Scott, Greaves and Scanlon. The Czech team tackled hard and cleanly, and were perhaps a little unlucky not to score.
