Text | The Star club has given the ball-playing community some of the best players in it among whom we would name Messrs. Creighton, A. Brainard, Flanly, and J. Whiting, all graduates of the “bully little Star Club of Brooklyn”. Like the Enterprise Club to the Atlantic, the Stars have been to the Excelsior Club–the school from which they have drawn their main strength. Those Enterprising youths, Messrs. C. Smith, Joe Oliver, Start, Crane, and Chapman, have been greatly instrumental in sustaining the credit of the Atlantic Club, and we need not say that the skill exhibited by the graduates of the Star Club, who are now members of the Excelsior, have been equally advantageous to the latter association. |
