[a letter to the editor] Cannot some arrangement be made by the Athletic as follows: On important matches, when fifty cents is charges for admission to the grounds, to give persons a check, which would entitle them to a seat; or twenty-five cents when the parties do not with that accommodation; on ordinary occasions to charge twenty-five cents for the privilege of a feat and admission to the ground, or ten cents for standing room? There is considerable complaint on the part of those who are not members or dead-heads, as they say that some of the games are not worth the car fare to the grounds, which you know to be the truth; so we look to you for assistance.
