Charles John Luke (22 June 1911 – 1 January 1998) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Footscray in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Luke, a forward, came to Footscray from Phillip Island. He played 13 of his 18 career games in 1937 and kicked at least two goals in each of his home and away season appearances that year.
