The League constitution says that the membership of any League club shall be forfeited if they fail to immediately expel any person under contract with it who shall at any time during the term of his service take part as player, umpire or scorer in any game of ball on Sunday. The question now arises whether Chicago, Cleveland and Buffalo have not forfeited their membership in the League by failing to expel Flint, Corcoran, Williamson, Gore, Kelly, McCormick and Foley, all of whom are said to have participated in a baseball game played Sunday, Oct. 30, in St. Louis, Mo.
