Letter from Eugene J. O’Connor to Theodore Roosevelt

Eugene J. O’Connor writes to Theodore Roosevelt regarding the promotion of Sunday baseball. A number of measures regarding the sport are being considered in the Massachusetts state legislature, and O’Connor encourages Roosevelt to support the pastime, as it will lead “to a higher ideal of Civic and Patriotic thought on Sunday afternoons than what our helpless youth of the State are doing at present.”
