REGULATIONS FOR THE NINE.

The following letter, which has been received by the manager of the nine from Dr. Sargent, explains itself:

HARVARD UNIVERSITY, March 13, 1884.

DEAR SIR:-I am directed to inform you that there is nothing to prevent you from making the usual arrangements for the games of the ensuing season. I am further instructed by the committee on athletics to say that the games must be played upon the grounds habitually used by one of the competing colleges, or upon the grounds of some other college; but that no games are to be played in Boston, New York, or Philadephia, except with the nines of colleges in those cities.

You will be so good as to send me a schedule of the games as soon as arranged. Signed,

D. A. SARGENT, Sec'y Com. on Athletics,TO MR. B. B. THAYER, JR.,

Manager Harvard University nine.
