R)- Pitcher Bill Swift. getting
into condition for a return to
the majors by working in an

Swift, a regular on the Pitts

Leo DurotFler
10 Take Army
Exam Monday
Several in Line
TO Toke His Job
lf He is Called

NEW YORK, Feb. 23-(F-
With the Robins already scam
ming the want ads for summer
homes, two national league base
ball clubs still are busy studying
the same pages for 1913 mana
gers.
Brooklyn officials flipped to
the help-wanted columns today
after being informed that Mana
ger Leo Durocher's selective
service board had ordered him
10 appear for induction next
Monday.
The new owners Of the Phila-
delphia Phils have been hunting
field boss since taking over the
club last Friday and aren't GER
tain they can make a choice un-
til Thursday.
The Durocher announcements
was made while the talkative
Leo was vacationing in Florida
and Branch Hickey, president Of
the club. was rounding up talent
in California.
Neither made any definite
comment, except that Hickey
said Durocher would remain the
Dodger boss until he was def
nitely in the army but added he
had several men in mind as
possible successors.
SHOTTON MENTIONED
Dolph Camilli, big Dodger
first baseman, remains in tho
running for the job. Hickey ex-
planning that while the Camilli
situation is unfavorable right
now because Dolf can't find any
one to run his ranch in northern
California, l have a feeling that
he may be on first for the Dodg.
ers when the season opens"
Others mentioned for the job
was Second Baseman Billy Her
man among the players and Burt
Shotton, coach at Cleveland, and
Ray Blades. manager of New
Orleans, should Hickey follow
his custom of recent years at st.
Louis and select a bench-mana-
ger. Both Shotton and Blades
formerly worked for Hickey.
William D. Cox, who probably
will become president when tho
new Phil setup is officially Or
gained. revised his list of pros
poets after being chided by Ed
Barrow, New York Yankee
president, for mentioning Bill
Dickey, Yank catcher, as one Of
his choices.
After it was explained to Cox
that his mentioning of Dickey
came under the baseball rule Of
"tampering." he declared he had
three other candidates in mind.
He didn't mention them but
they are believed to be in the
following list: Lefty ODoul, for
mer Phil outfielder, now mana.
ger of San Francisco: Pepper
Martin, manager Of Rochester:
Bucky Harris, at WASHINGTON
last year; and Chuck Dresser.
