[reporting the AA meeting of 12/7-9] The amendment allowing two substitutes on the bench, who could take their places in a nine at any stage of the game, was overwhelmingly rejected, but the League was granted the privilege of trying it as an experiment if they so desired. This is Spalding's pet idea.
