THE RICHMOND PALLAIJ1U3I AD SUX-TELEGKA3I, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 15. li)07.
"CASEY" SIGNED FOR THIS TEAM BY BIG TOM PLUMMER ARRANGEMENTS COMPLETED FOR DANCE WEDNESDAY EVENING.
secretary Bob Quinn, of the Columbus team, three times winner cf the American association pennant, was fa the city Friday for the purpose of Signing Clarence Jessup, the popular manager of the local Indiana-Ohio league team, to a Columbus contract. Jessup did not place his signature to the contract offered by him by Qiiinn, because Quinn could not assure him that he would be carried by the Columbus team all next season. Quinn will consult President Bryce of the Columbus team in regards to this and if Bryce assurt-s Jessup that he can have a permanent berth with the champions, it is . most probable that he vill sign a Columbus contract. The American association is just a fw points' shy of National and American league class. Richmond friends of Manager Jessup are sure that the fast little back stop would have no difficulty in making a place for himself on the fast Columbus team which promises to make a strong bid for the A. A. championship next season, thus creating a record of winning four straight pennants.
Harry "Tacks" Hay. the underhand pitching wonder, who twirled the first part of last season with the Dunkirk independent team, and finished the season with the Van Wert I. O. league team, has signed a contract with the Indianapolis American association team for next season. If Hay makes good with the Hoosiers it is an assured fact that he will be hailed as "a promising young recruit," notwithstanding the fact that Harry confesses to thirty-seven summers and hard, hard winters. Manager Jessup tried to secure Hay for the locals last season, but Hay went to Van Wert.
Will "Casey" Horn, of this city, who pitched for the Richmond team the past season, has signed a contract with the Quincy, Iowa state league team for next season. Horn was signed by Tom Plummer. who is wintering in Richmond. Plummmer is one of the outfielders of the Quincy team and has been commissioned to act as scout for this club during the hot stove season.
Everything is in readiness for the dance to be given Wednesday evening of this week, at the Coliseum, by the Richmond Amusement company, for the benefit of next season's team. There has been a large sale of tickets for the event and the indications are that all the baseball rans in the city will be on hand to ; enjoy a good time and to extend the helping hand. Women will be admitted free.
