Text | Much feeling has been aroused among the students of Cornell University by the employment of professional players by other colleges in the New York State Intercollegiate Base Ball Association. The agreement had previously been made that no college should play other than regular students in its nine. Manager Bering, of Cornell, has made an affidavit, and the University Registrar signed a certificate, that all the members of the Cornell nine are regular college students. Hamilton College and Union College both advertised for professionals in the New York papers, and the latter has engaged four professionals, and the former three. Hobart College also plays two professionals and Rochester University two outsiders. |
