Repeal Of Trade
Ban on Champs
Threatened
Fight on Extensive
Night PIoy Made by
National League
BY EARL HILLIGAN,
Associated Press Sports Writer,

CHICAGO, Dec. 10.-Baseball's
major league club owners opened
their annual winter meeting today
amid rumblings of possible blast
of legislative action and the still
gentle murmur of trade winds.
AS managers continued their un-
counted huddles over disposition or
acquisition of playing talent, Ameri-
can and National League moguls
entered separate sessions to consider
several problems in their respective
circuits. They ranged from a move
toward resembling the no-trade rule.
imposed last year on the American
League championship club, to ex-
tension of new contract for the
games commissioner, Kenesaw M.
Landis
No decision on another term for
Lands will be made until the Joint
session of the leagues tomorrow or
Thursday. But the National League
owners were expected to discuss the
problem and the American League
has ready formal resolution that
new contract extending TO 1916 be
given the 75-year- old Lands. whose
present contract has another year
to run.
Trade Ban Rule Menaced.
There was prospect of a hot
battle over the rule which prevents
the American League pennant vim
ner from interleague trading.
Connie Mack. veteran manager Of
the Philadelphia Athletics, said that
his club would vote to retain the
present no-trade regulation. which
he called the greatest rule we've
ever had" Washington and st.
Louis also repeatedly were intent on
keeping it on the books, but Chicago,
New York. Boston and Detroit were
expected to vote for abolishment
The night baseball question was
expected to bob up with a bang.
The National League has prepared
resolution to prohibit any major
league club from playing more than
seven night games season at home
The American League last year
gave ST Louis permission to play IA
and the Browns drew more fans
in those IA after-dark contests than
in SO home daylight appearances.
The major league player market,
enlivened yeterday only by the
utility inflelders deal in which
Brooklyn sent Pep Young to Cincin-
natl in exchange for Lew Riggs, was
expected to show little more life
as representatives from all Is major
league clubs joined the lobby prowl-
ing game.
Giants Active on Market.
Manager Bill Terry of the New
York Giants, who needs about
everything. admitted he was con-
sidering deals with no fewer than
four clubs-BoSton's Bees. Pitts
burgh. Chicago Cubs and Cincin-
natl He wants Hank Leiber from
the Cubs, but said he would not
give up Catcher Harry Danning to
get the blond Bruin outfielder
Cleveland is after an outfielder
and it was learned that the Indians
will use Ben Chapman, veteran fly
chaser. as trading bait. The Chicago
White Sox, in need of second base
man, were dickering with the
Browns.
