Text | ...we are assured that one or two, perhaps more, of the prominent clubs of the country, are in the habit of paying, directly and indirectly, some of their players. Of course, all who break the law will not too curiously interrogate rival clubs; but all others, before beginning a match, should put the President of Vice-President on the witness stand to answer, on honor, whether there are any players on the nine who receive pay for the services. This, we hear, will be the rule hereafter, and it will be found to work advantageously for the best interests of our noble national game. Let the hired men take notice., quoting the New York Tribune |
