...professional, one who plays in part for gain. This, as has so often been said, confines amateurism to the wealthy, and makes 'athletics' simply a pastime of the rich. Undoubtedly from his standpoint Whitney is right and fair in his anthems; but it is also right and fair to admit the existence of another standpoint...
