His Honor Mayor Powers of Springfield, Mass., is the new president of the National Association. New York Clipper March 8, 1879

This [Worcester] club has emulated the National Association, and placed a Mayor in its presidential chair. Our correspondent says: “The stockholders of the Worcester Baseball Club held a meeting Friday night, Feb. 28, and elected the following officers: President, Hon. C. B. Pratt, Mayor of Worcester; treasurer, Freeman Brown, local editor of The Spy... The selection of such officers places baseball on a high footing in this city, and insures the patronage of the better class. New York Clipper March 8, 1879
