| Text | [a proposal by Horace Fogel] Each club shall have exclusive control of its own ground. But the home club shall, except in cities occupied by a National League and American Association club, and except on holidays, pay to the visiting club for every championship game played by it on said grounds thirty per centum of the receipts of general admission (or fifteen cents per head), providing that 1,370 or more admissions have passed through the gates, and if less than that number, the visiting club shall receive the sum of two hundred dollars. In cities occupied by a National League and American Association club the home club shall pay to the visiting club for every championship game on said grounds forty per centum (or 10 cents per head) of the receipts of general admission, providing that 2,000 or more admissions have passed through the gate, and if less than that number, the visiting club shall receive the sum of two hundred dollars. On National or State holidays the home club shall pay to the visiting club fifty per centum of the receipts for general admission. |
