May Change Opening Dates of Ma
 for Ieapues

JOl AEo'
 A movement is on foot in the National League to have the open ings of the two major circuits set a week or two later in the spring on account Of weather conditions.
 PresdeNt Ebbetts of the Brook lyn Dodgers is fostering the move and is said to have other mag mates with him. There is also some talk of the matter being taken up in the American league.
 The main objection to the pres ent early opening is that many games have to be postponed on ac- count of cold weather, rain and snow and because ball players who have conditioned themselves in the South lose the benefits of the train ing camps when they work in the frigid April weather of the coast and lake cities.
 It has been argued that the weather in mid-October is more likely to be warm than in April, and l54 games could be played by extending the seasons later in the fall
