Text | The League baby of Cleveland has this spring violated the League constitution by playing a Sunday game, a violation which involved forfeiture of League membership. It is not, however, likely to be severely, if at all, disciplined in view of the fact that the new York Club did the same thing last season and has besides for years openly and brazenly defied the League law relative to selling liquor by running a bar in full blast under the grand stand at the Polo Grounds. If the League could afford to wink at and condone such a flagrant violation of an important League law it will hardly strain much at a mere Sunday exhibition game. |
