Former Dodger
Pitching Star
Is Suicide
ATLANTA, (JP) —- Hugh Casey,
former baseball pitching star,
killed himself here early Tuesday
seconds after assuring his wife he
was innocent of a charge that he
fathered a son out of wedlock.
The former Brooklyn Dodger
player shot himself through the
neck with a 16 gauge shotgun in
a downtown hotel.
• /
Mrs. Kathleen Casey, an at
tractive, 34-year-old blonde and
the pitcher’s estranged wife, said
she argued for 15 minutes over
the -telephone seeking to dissuade
him from committing suicide.
She said in an interview she
argued desperately with him but
her pleas were interrupted by a
shattering blast that faded into
silence.
When the gun sounded, a friend
of Casey’s was only a few feet
from the door of the 38-year-old
athlete’s room, hurrying to pre
vent the tragedy.
A three-judge special sessions
court in New York named the big
pitcher - as the father of a son
born out of wedlock to Hilda
Weissman, a 25-year-old brunette.
The Caseys, who married 13
years ago, have no children. Mrs. j
Casey said their estrangement had i
nothing to do with the New York *
paternity suit.
He pitched for Brooklyn be
tween 1939 and 1948. In 1947 he
established a record for most
games pitched in a World Series
—'six, and for the most games
finished in a World Series—six.

long.
