He ped 'at the Stadium just as the practice session was ending and did not put on a uniform. Xen Strong went from Reading to New York on business, but he will be on hand today and will play against the Jersey City Skeeters in the curtain-raiser that starts that home season of the Leafs on its way. Weather Favorable The weatherman was evidently casting a favorable eye on the pro- ceedings at the Stadium today. Yes- terday was ideal for baseball and the forecast for today is that con- ditions will be equally as pleas- ing. Indications are that the game will attract a large crowd. Last season some 14,000 watched the Leafs defeat Reading in the open- | er. The fair weather of yesterday put the fans in a baseball frame of mind and all day the telephones and box offices were kept busy | with calls for tickets. It is ex- pected that some 20,000 fans will be on hand when the umpires fin- | ally call "Play Ball." Manager O'Neill has selected Frank Barnes, the big southpaw, to occupy the mound against the Jer- seys this afternoon. He will be: opposed by John Allen, the right- hander, who made an ausvicious debut here last year and blanked the Leafs. Allan turned-in a win- ning performance against the Mon- treal Royals last week in Jersey City on his first time out, so he appears to be right in form.
