We may here state that St Joseph's Prep does not wait and does not have to bo bound by a league set of eligibility rules In order to e what la beat for high school rompetl tlva athletics In brief the following Is the code of ellglbllltv rules lived up to by St. Joseph a Prep since Its existent e First No man can practice or play In any prep sport who has not passed In his class standing Second, livery man on the prep team must bo a student attending the full course t'f periods each day. Third No post graduate or man who has received ft high school diploma, or Its equivalent can practice or play on any prep team lfourth No man who has Dlavrd more than four esrs In high school athletics Is eligible to plav on the prep team At tha beginning of his letter Director Glendon states something nbout the Catnotlo high schools of Philadelphia adopting a regular Hchedute as being a very timely suggestion Such an attempt was tried b us during the past two vars, but without results The only school to end a real faculty representative to the meeting-, which we tried to conduct at St Joseph's Prep, was West Philadel phia, Catholic High .School. Brother Miller attending The other Catholic sthools de clined to consider such an action advan tageous In addition It seems that the athletic director of Catholic High School was not anxious last jear to form a Catholic high school baseball league Is Director Ulendou anxious for a Catholic league In all branches of sport' In conclusion, M Joseph's Prep has been advocating such a league for three seasons and will be only toi glad when It la finally completed As jet no word has. been receded about the Invitation of fit Joseph a Prep to attend a meeting organized by Faculty Direttor Ultndon at Catholic High School in reference to the formation of this much-agitated league. we. are walling patiently for this wel come. Invitation Perhaps It would be a good thing If the schools playing on Thanksgiving Day morning .would adopt soma sort of eligi bility rules, for Instance, rules barring post-graduates, men taking a two-hour-a-wcek course etc , in order to protect aomo of fho achuols playing.
