General Manager Frank Lane of the St. Louis Cardinals warned today that "bad work by the umpires is driving fans from the ball parks." "I'm not an umpire baiter in fact I think it is a crime that a veteran umpire is paid less for doing his job than a utility in fielder," Lane declared. "But we're getting an awful lot of bad work by these fellows. What is more, one inefficient umpire in a crew of four can spoil a whole game. The fans get riled up and the players on both ben ches start getting on all of the other umpires." Lane admitted that National League President Warren C. Giles had sent him a long letter in connection with remarks Lane made last week that Umpire Frank Secory "ought to pay to get in to see a game." But he made it plain that he would not be hushed up in his criticism of umpires. Richardson, Seixas ! Sent Against Mexico New ork lU.R' The U.
