St James Rugby League Photographs 1910-1930

John McCabe is helping research of material for a book that is being written by a friend of his on “Rugby League in Catholic Sydney Schools 1910-1930”. He has concentrated on the Patrician Brothers schools in the early days and has discovered that there is very little photographic evidence for the Forest Lodge school rugby league teams.

If you can help John please email him johnlmccabe5@bigpond.com

Update on mailout

I wonder if anyone is actually reading this blog because nobody has signed up yet. For those who might pop in for a look you will be pleased to know that Paul Blair has received several donations to 'defray costs'. Isn't that wonderful.
We now have about 150 names on the database. At this stage we have 19 contacts with email addresses and the snail mail service (to Paul Blair) is less than 50% of the electronic messages.
If you are sending a cheque or money order can you make it payable to Inner City Alumni?
