.|NTERC|TY GAMES
FOR SCHOOL TEAMS
West Catholic Has Many I'm
portant Contests---Cage
Stars Work

The coming indoor season will sec
more intcrcity competition among the
schoolboys in this section than over
before. During the outdoor season
soccer contests between the private
schools and Wilmington Friends have
been frequent. Wilmington High was
also scheduled to play n football game
here this year. but owing to the early
date found It necessary to cancel.
Tho football game between st. Jo-
Hcph's Props and Brooklyn prcrs has
established athletic relations between
these two institutions on firm basis
and will undoubtedly result in the
scheduling of number of basketball
games.
Although the Public High School
'Icngnn officials frown on long trips and
intcrcity compctitions, under proper
supervision they arc to he encouraged,
and it IL not unlikely that this inter
city rivalry will be fostcrcd in the near
future.
If the teacher accompanies the ath
Ictcs on their trips and has entire
charge and supervision over them. n few
intcrCity games and few trips will do
no harm and encourage competition for
places on the team.
