According to the following from the
Kansas City Times, Andrews will get
a couple Kansas City pitchers to use
on his Salt Packer team: Already has
the axe begun to fall and 1t was given

Wright had been sold to the Hutchin-
son club Of the Western Association
with the option of repurchase at the
end of the season. I'VE have been car
rying too many twirlers," said Tebeau.
Gross tried to give them all a fair
chance to work and in consequence the
time between games was so long that
they became wild when they finally did
toe the slab. believe in carrying four
or five twirlers at the most as it has
been my experience that a team that
works a few men regularly stands a
better chance to win a flag than one
which is over stocked. Case was wild
as was Wright while our youngsters
have been working nicely Of late. Kit
son will be held for a time and if he
makes good will remain, otherwise
shall dispose Of him also. Wood will
receive some coaching from Cross and
myself and in a short time I expect
him to get back to the form he showed
in the spring" In discussing Wood,
Monte Cross said that the youngster
tried too hard to strike out every man
who opposed him and that in conse-
quence he became wild. Wood has the
best speed and curves of any of the
men on the staff and has the makings
Of great pitcher but 1t will be up to
him to use his head.
