Text	In order to preserve the orderly character of Sunday assemblages Mr. Byrne has determined to enforce the rule which the new National Agreement admits of, and that is to enforce the five mile law which prohibits the playing of any National Agreement club on any grounds within five miles of Kings County without the consent of the Brooklyn American Association Club. Any outside club which plays Sunday games on any inclosed ground in Queens County within five miles of Ridgewood Park, without the consent of the Brooklyn Club, can now be debarred from playing with any National Agreement club during the entire season. The change made in the rule from five miles distant from the city line to five miles from the county line was adopted at the Pittsburg meeting. This rule is to be strictly enforced by the Brooklyn Club this coming season.
