EAGLES TEAM WITH ALLEGHENY UNIV. HOSPITALS FOR TRAINING CAMP

          The Eagles have partnered with Allegheny University
     Hospitals in the first entitlement of training camp in NFL
     history.  The training camp will feature the NFL Experience
     -- nine interactive games and activities that take place
     over the length of a football field; a food court; daily
     contests and promotions; and special events. The team will
     also debut Eagles Fan Fair!, an interactive game area. 
     Eagles training camp runs through August 15 (Eagles).
          ULTERIOR MOTIVES?  In Philadelphia, Rich Hofmann of the
     DAILY NEWS profiled the Eagles' training camp.  Hofmann:
     "[T]he Allegheny University Hospitals logo is painted on
     everything that doesn't move, including the practice fields. 
     In simpler times, like five years ago, you would sit on the
     hill and pack a lunch and watch practice and that was it. 
     Now it's an extravaganza."  Hofmann adds that the deal is
     part of an "effort to get somebody to spend millions of
     dollars to help build the Eagles a new stadium or a new
     practice facility or both" (PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS, 7/23).
