Date	Sunday, December 31, 1876
Text	At a meeting of the Boston Baseball Association, held Dec. 27, Mr. F. G. Long, treasurer, presented his report. It showed an increase of receipts from games on the Boston ground over the previous year, and a decrease in the receipts away from home, notably at Hartford and Philadelphia. The exact figures, as given in the report, are not to be published, but it may be said that while the receipts of the year were less than those of 1875, the expenses were much less, and the association is left with a good working capital. Mr. Apollonio, president, submitted a report from the board of directors of 1876, which was a review of the year’s work. He suggested that unless the incoming board of directors succeed in canceling the contracts of some of the players engaged for 1877, it might be thought advisable to engage enough more to run two nines, the opinion being exercised that a second ine of semi-professional rank would at least pay its expenses.
