Scott, manufacturer of a carbonated beverage, entered into a contract with otis, owner of a baseball park, whereby otis
rented to scott a large signboard on top of the center eld wall. the contract provided that otis should letter the sign as
scott desired and would change the lettering from time to time within forty-eight hours after receipt of written request
from scott. as directed by scott, the signboard originally stated in large letters that scott would pay $100 to any ball
player hitting a home run over the sign.
in the rst game of the season, hume, the best hitter in the league, hit one home run over the sign. scott immediately
served written notice on otis instructing otis to replace the offer on the signboard with an offer to pay $50 to every
pitcher who pitched a no-hit game in the park. a week after receipt of scott’s letter, otis had not changed the wording on
the sign; and on that day, perry, a pitcher for a scheduled game, pitched a no-hit game and todd, one of his teammates,
hit a home run over scott’s sign. scott refuses to pay any of the three players. what are the rights of scott, hume, perry,
and todd?
