?Jr of athletic of Otholtc I gh
School la ab-olulelv falae Hi; Is died
upon as an UonoriiMo man either to re
tract the statement or to produco proofs
Sources of Information are only too open
for lilm at hi, mere request If the di
rector would onlv Inquire of other Inter
acholaatlc IilJrh schools who have, athletic
competition with St Joseph's Prep how
strictly eligibility rules are enforce,!,
tho falslts of lil own charge would be
cv'me onlv too evident to lilm
St. Joseph's Trep has adhered to a
strict code of eligibility rules. 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. V .McPCAK.
