ANOTHER STAR HUKIiER

1t became known last night that
Richmond is negotiating for Hap
Martin, a big pitcher. who per.
formed last season with Portland
in the Eastern league. Although
IL has been reported that the To-
ronto Internationals have landed
the hnrler, the local management
still thinks that he will be with
Richmond this season.
Martin was one of the leading
pitchers in the Eastern leagge last
year, winning eighteen games and
having only six chalked up In the
.1ost" column for a percentage OF
$50. 1t Is a known fact that To-
ronto and other clubs have been
warm after the player. but the
yirgtnian owners have reason to
believe that he will he here when
