Text	Uncle Billy Huston, who superintended the grounds at Eclipse Park last year, will not be found in Louisville next season. Manager Watkins has induced him to go to Detroit, and at an advanced salary. Uncle Billy will be missed. The Sporting Life February 23, 1887 connotations of “hustler” [from the Detroit correspondent’s column] Wonder what is the cause of Mr. Chadwick’s deep-seated aversion to the word “hustler.” I notice he never misses an opportunity to take a whack at it. In his last letter he objects to Dan O’Leary being called a hustler, because “a hustler is a trickster, unscrupulous in his methods of management.” Of course, the generally accepted definition of the term is one who humps himself and secures valuable players for his club; in fact, one who keeps his eyes wide open all the time and misses no opportunity to advance the interests of the aggregation he represents. Trickery and unscrupulousness are not necessarily among the attributes of a hustler. The Sporting Life February 23, 1887
