In the beginning of the present season a change was made in the management of the [Olympic] club–Messrs. Taber and Thatcher, the most prominent under the new regime, by their activity and energy, infusing new life into the club. The first step taken was the formation of a new nine, which was selected from prominent young players in the junior fraternity, and several seceders from the Commonwealth forming the nucleus, and Rorke, of the defunct Arctic, being selected to fill the important position of pitcher.
