Rochester Democrat and Chronicle February 21, 1879 the International Association championship record [reporting on the proceedings of the National Association convention] The Judiciary Committee heard arguments for five hours on the championship awards, and in the evening unanimously reported that the Buffalos stood first, the Stars, of Syracuse, second; and the Utica club third. On motion of Mr. Clark, of Manchester, the convention, by a vote of 6 to 8, refused to agree to the report of the committee, on the ground that as the Stars and Buffalos had joined the League, they were no in the International Association. The convention then adopted a motion giving the Uticas the first place, the Manchesters the second, and the Tecumsehs, of London, Ca., the third. On Thursday this action was reconsidered, and the committee's report was adopted. New York Tribune February 22, 1879 |
