KANSAS CITY
CLUB PILOT
is DIPLOMAT
Hundreds Of Fans Sign Petit
ton For Dutch ZwilIing as
Manager and Get Him

Kansas City, Feb. S.-CP)-An UNI
pire calls a bad strike. The batter
does not stamp his feet and rave. He
turns with an inquisitive look at the
umpire and wggles his bat.
3'Where was it Dutch? the umpire
inquiries.
"About three inches inside"
you're right. Sorry"
And "Dutch" will face the pitcher
for the next delivery.
That is characteristic of Edward
Harrison Dutch Zwilling, who Will
pilot the Kansas City club of the
American Association this season. If
diplomacy will help bali team then
the Blues will have lots Of help, be-
cause Dutch is diplomat.
Zwilling has played ball in Kansas
City three years and in those years
has wen warm place in the hearts of
the fans. He is a stabilizing in
fluence, a master of himself in try
ing situations.
With Lincoln Club Last Year
Last year Dutch managed the
Lincoln club of the Western League
This last winter when George Muehle-
bach, owner of the Blues, was east
ing about for a pilot, fans by the hun
dreds signed a petition for Clutch
Zwiling, and they got him.
''Dutch's' prospects for the season
are fair. A first division team
though not a pennant winner, is in
store, say the critics. The pitching
staff is good, as good as any in the
association, they say.
Contracts have gone out for about
20 or 25 regulars, in addition to sew
cral recruits.
Among the new members of the
team will be Whitley Witt, outfield-
er, release by Brooklyn last fall.
Joe Hauser, first baseman, will
come from the Philadelphia Athletics
on option along with Bill Wanda
ganss, second baseman, who were OBJ
tanned in exchange for Dudley
Branom, Blue first baseman.
John Peters, catcher of the Holly
wood Pacific Coast League club, comes
to the Blues in exchange for Cotton"
Tierney.
Two pitchers, Bauer and Foley, Of
the Ottumwa, Iowa, team, and Buster
Chatham, one of the best outfielders
in the Three-Eye League last year,
are among the recruits.
The Blue pitching staff viii! leave
February 26 for the training camp at
Lake Charles, La, and the rest of the
team will report about a week later.
