| Text | Last season no man could belong to any other club than the one he p layed with, or rather could not play in a match game as such a member, no matter whether the other club was one in or out of the Association. This year, provided the club he belongs to is not in the Association–such as a junior club for instance–or if in the Association it be a College club, it does not matter. For instance, Mr. Bush is catcher of the National club of Albany, but while in College at Harvard he is the catcher of the Harvard nine. Now last year he could not play in the National Club matches unless he resigned from the Harvard club; this year he can play in both nines, as College nines are exempted from the prohibition applied to all other Association clubs. Also junior clubs are now out of the list, consequently it is not now necessary that a member of a junior club should have to wait sixty days, or two days even, before he can play in a match as one of the nine of a senior club, provided he does not also belong to some other senior club. |
