NEED MONEY
TO KEEP The
CHICKS GOING
Manager Jackson here to Can
VaSS Business Men for at
Least $2,5OO
HAlE LOST MONEY
ON RETURNING PLAYERS

Jimmy Jackson. manager OF the Viii
mington baseball team. arrived in Viii
mington today to stay awhile He is
TO make a canvass for financial support
for the club he SAYS il needs from
tho team as il should be- during the
coming season. and the owners OF the
team and Manager jackson feel that an.
appeal to The civic pride of the resi-
dents OF Wilmington will result in tho
necessary amount being subscribed.
Manager Jackson has been designated
by the owners TO cali OF the business
mon OF Wilmington to try to get sub
scriptions 20 at least $500 of stock IN
the club. He also will present the mat
ter TO the Chamber of Commerce and
TO the Wilmington Development Com
pany.
As win be recalled the Wilmington
team Won the Iri-State League cham
pionship last year. That fact alone did
much to put Wilmington ON the map.
H. focused the attention of the sporting
world which admittedly is q big world,
upon Wilmington That OF itself is an
asset to the city. Manager Jackson
claims. and his appeal is to be made
to the business men to enable Whining
ton to have top-notch team again this
year that IL possible, can win the pen
luant and again advertise Wilmington.
A winning baseball team is conceded to
be a big feature for any city.
Nilmingtonians viii be asked to take
stock in any amounts that viii tend to
make up the total of al least $500
needed. The more persons who become
stockholders the better it win be for
the team. 1t is figured out thnt IT
ifftv persons each should subscribed to
$50 worth of stock it would give the
lamount needed OF it one hundred per-
sons should subscribe TO S25 worth Of
stock it would put the team on sound
basis and at the same time give the
lbuyers of stock personal interest IN

II is pointed out that the team lack,
led sufficient capital last season. II 4
had the money it could have bought Al
len Russell and August Gleichman out
right and could have sold them Tor IRON
$4,000 to S. 600 As II WAS. the Balti'
more team retained ownership OF thos'
PLAYERS and viii reap amy profit IRON
tho sale Of thosc players that Whining
ton could have gotten - Il had has
enough money TO buy them.
Then Fritz and Kerr, the third base
men and catcher who we're standby
of Wilmington have jumped TO thu
Federal League, win have to be re
plased on the local team, which ma
take money. The team has to b'
equipped with uniforms and there ar
other expenses that require money
Manager jackson today said tina
{ in other cities street car companies
give financial assistance TO the base
ball team, and the business men als'
subscribed. He cited that only recenti'
the business men of Allentown in tn
