Spald ing a few years previous. The lead ing clubs of ihose days occupied the same position of the higher class semi piofcssional teams of the present. Kx penses, lucrative positions and por tions of the gate receipts found their way to tho players. It was there fore but a step to professional ball which Anson took with his team mntes in 1871 when the National Association of Professional Baseball Players was tcundrd.
