Text | Neither the pubic nor the players this fall will have the pleasure of knowing what men will be reserve by the clubs having more than fourteen men under contract until the clubs are ready to divulge the reserve list. President Young has just sent out to each League president the following circular: September 22.-Sir:--On or before Oct. 5, you will please send me a list of players, at present under contract with your club, that you desire to reserve for the season of 1888. This list must not exceed fourteen in number. I am directed, by the Board of Arbitration, to SPECIALLY request all League clubs not to make public its reserve list until after its official promulgation by the secretary. Yours truly, N. E. Young, Sec'y. {President Wikoff will issue a similar circular to the Association clubs, who are pledged along with the League clubs to maintain secrecy. This course was decided upon at the recent meeting of the arbitration committee in Philadelphia—Ed.} |
