Dartmouth ReadmItted to the Assoeia. ttOn-The Schedule of Games. The Intercollegiate Base Ball association held it's annual convention at the Massasoit House, Springfield, yesterday. The parlor of the house was filled with stalwart, we'll number the most prominent ball players of the association. The delegates from Amherst were G. W. Wadsworth, w. F. Wilcox, E P. Harris; from Brown, A. F. Wall, G. w. Wadsworth, N. s. Dike; from Harvard, L.. V. Lemoyne, A. Crocker; from Princeton, c. s. Clark, A. MoTatt; from Yale, N. G. Williams, H. 0. Hopkins, W. 0. Camp. MT. A. Hubbard, s. s. s., 'S3, the captain of last years nine, was also present. The conven- tion admitted reporters to the discussions contrary to the customs of previous years.
 The president of the association, MT. Yates, Yale '93, was absent and Mir. Crocker, of Harvard, called the meeting to order.
 Officers for the ensuing year were at once chosen with the following result: President, A. OrOCk0E, 1AENhI0j ACSb t1CO pE061uouV1 IN. G. Williams, Yale; second vice president N. s. Dike, Brown; secretary and treasurer, G. w. Wadsworth, Amherst.
 The first business settled was the selection of ball to be used this season. Agents from both Spalding and Wright & Ditson were allowed to present the claims of the rival balls. The committee which was ap- pointed to decide on the ball reported in favor of the Wright E Ditson ball The change is very acceptable to the clubs, as much fault was found with the Spsl ding ball last year, as it would swell greatly during 8 game. The championship pennant for 1883 was then voted to Yale.
 MT. Camp now made 8 motion to hear the delegates from Dartmouth and St. Johns college, Fordham, New York, who were present seeking admis sion to lthe association. Dartmouth had been expelled from the association last year on the ground that the time and expense necessary for Harvard and Princeton to make the trip to Hanover was too great to be borne. MT. N. A. McClary, however, de- clared that his college was now willing to make any concession requested and would make no trouble about arranging games. Princeton and Yale declared that they would not go to Hanover. The question was then left to the judiciary committee A recsss of fifteen minutes was taken while the com mittee were deliberating. MT. Williams, of Yale, chairman of the committee, reported that the following arrangement of games with Dartmouth had been made: With Har- vardI both in Cambridge, with Yale both in New Haven, with Princeton both in Prince. ton, Amherst and Brown will each go to Han- over for "a game. Dartmouth was readmitted. The delegate from St. Johns college (the nine is better known as the Rose Hill nine) now stated his case; that the faculty of their institution Ca Roman Catholic college) had hitherto been opposed to the nine's playing with the hines of Protestant institutions, but had now withdrawn their objection and would allow them full liberty as to games and dates; that they were but eight miles from the New York Grand Central depot; and that Yale had defeated them by c score of but 10 to z last season. MT. Camp moved that the college be admitted, but the motion was lost by a vote of to 1.
 The convention then turned it's attention to the constitution which was amended very freely. The most important changes were that the president should be elected from the college holding the championship. That the games played on schedule days only should be considered championship games. An amendment was added allowing the visiting club to obtain portion of the gate receipts on mutual agreement, which will proye very favorable for Yale's finances. The article in regard to umpires was changed en- tirely and now reads: ''The appointment of umpires shall be left to the judiciary com- r,F ka
