[reporting on the special meeting of the League held 3/24 - 3/25/1879] For years have we endeavored to impress League club managers with the vital importance of adopting a rule prohibiting the engagement of players for an ensuing season before the expiration of the existing season. They have experimented with the subject for two years, and at last have endorsed The Clipper’s view of the matter, as will be seen by the appended agreement, which goes into effect on Tuesday, April 1.
