A synopsis of the resolution is that there shall be a committee on championship consisting of three persons, appointed by the president of the association, by whom the averages of each club contesting for the championship shall be examined, and by whom decision as to the merits of clubs shall be made. To the chairman of that committee each club desiring to contest for the championship shall communicate previous to the 1st of May of each year, and with such communication shall transmit $10 to be used in the purchase of a whip to be flown by the champion club. The championship series shall consist of five games, three out of which must be gained by the winning club.
