Text | [reporting on the AA convention] There are indication of internal jealousies and unbusinesslike feeling. It was the element that the more conservative friends of the new Association feared might arrive. The truth is, if it must be told, that there are at least three men connected with three clubs in the Association who would sacrifice their clubs' interests, as well as the Association's interests, to gratify personal spites. Such men are dangerous instruments, with which harm irretrievable may be worked against the Association. We do not accredit any such feeling to Mr. Simmons, of the Athletic Club. Among all the gentlemen assembled in that body, Mr. Simmons has shown himself impartial and manly. He would not lend himself to a mean act to gratify a personal spite under any circumstances. |
