ST. LURES MAKES STATEMENT

Sports Editor Evening Journal:
Dear Sir; I wish to correct a
wrong impression created concerning
the st. Luke's Academy football
team. Several misstatements have
been made that we played under the
name OF ST. James High School p.
I. ID. on Saturday. The error In the
name was made In the accounts OF
the game given to some OF the Phil
adelphia newspapers.
We played under the name Of ST.
Luke's Academy and We have a
scholastic standing. Notwithstanding
reports TO the contrary. We have a
school and 1t Is not a Sunday school
either Information concerning our
athletic activities should be gotten
directly from us to avoid mistakes.

Inter-league games seem to
have become an established
custom with a number OF major

or four years there has been a
great awakening In the south

Major league clubs, who always
lost money on training trips,
have shown a goodly profit OF

south like to see teams from the
rival major leagues clash. The
New York Yankees have just
announced they will play a
