Sunday Laws and Baseball

Great effort is being put forth at the present time in New York and New Jersey and elsewhere to enforce Sunday laws and prevent if possible any more Sunday baseball games. In Patterson, New Jersey, the ministers protested, and called upon the mayor and chief of police to enforce the laws, but the mayor loves baseball. He recently threw the first ball in a Sunday baseball game. The next Sunday he was criticized from the pulpits, but he responded that he enjoyed baseball playing, was glad he went, and would go again if he had the opportunity.
