Text | The Athletic Club, of this city, have had so far a very prosperous season. The public have rushed to see them play inferior clubs, and have cheerfully put up with the accommodations furnished. The Athletic’s receipts must count up among the thousands. We are glad of it, but we respectfully protest against the accommodations provided. We want that the dear public should be better accommodated, and we trust that McBride, Kleinfelder, Wilkins, Pratt, Berkenstock, Charlie Gaskill, and those of the nine who have the interest of the club at heart, will see that the et ceteras are forthcoming. Or course the “bummers” will object, but it is about time “their say” was measured. We want the Athletics to wake up and do for the public what is right. Let them select a representative man, and give him the authority to make the improvements so sadly felt. What say you, Athletics? |
