UMPIRING MEDIOCRE. _ |Football Captain ‘This old photo, taken in 1908, showing Theodore Roosevelt with the champion gun crew of the battleship Missouri, was brought to life again with the celebration of “Nayy Day" this month in honor. of the former IN WORLD'S SERIES By HENRY L. FARRELL. (United Press Sports Editor.) NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—({United Press.)}—When the four umpires who worked in the world's series com- plained to Commissioner Landis that their services in a million-dollar series were worth more than $2,000 each, the subject of umpirimg in general came up for discussion In several major and minor :eague managers, coaches and players. In 1921 and 1922 the four um- pires who worked in the world's to the money received series by one winning player and one losing player. The umpires divided this sum four ways. During the last meeting of the major leagues this method of paying the umpires was abolished and it decided that the officials tn future should be paid a flat the sura of $2,000 each. This new plan represented a loss of about $800 each to the impires, who had believed they were to get the same pay that the umpires were given in the two previous years. Splitting the share of a winning and a losing player, the four um pires would have received about $2,800 each. Commissioner Landis refused to amend or change the new ru‘e and he insisted that the letter of the law be followed which entitled the um pires to $2,000. In discussing the controversy most of the baseball men agreed tha the umpires should have been paid on the same scale that prevailed in the past two years and they agreed that when the wages were changed for the umpires the Iaw-makers of baseball should have made some re forms to regulate the method o choosing the umpires for the most important of all baseball games. Under the plan which now pre- vails, the presidents of the two major leagues follow the plan of giving the umpires their turn in getting a cut of the world’s series money. This naturally means that ability is not considered in selecting the official, although it will be argued by the league presidents that all of their umpires are competent nd good enough to work in a world’s series. But they are not! egehe To maintain peace and harmony among their umpires and to get 1d men interested in a profession t hasn't much of a natural at- fon, the major league presidents must accept the best means at their hand to distribute the world’s series among their whole staff, This plan is not working success fully There were two umpires in the last series who had no business in such an important series. Their a group of baseball men, including) series were given a sum equiva'ent| from the! decisions on balls and strikes were certainly not up to the average, where any fair baseball man will allow an umpire to miss one once in awhile. One of the major league managers, who never has been an umpire baiter and who will not permit {t among his players, sald that the umpire behind the plate was of vital importance. Names will be used in the opinion he expressed only when necessary. “When such an umpire as Bil? Klem ts behind the plate calling ball and strike stars would alternate effect on a pitcher or on both pitch- ers. They know when they go for a corner that Klem will get it if it 4s there. When an umpire is behind the plate missing them, the pitchers naturally feel that they have to bear down more and, in a ho'e, they are afraid to take a chance on having the umpire muff one for them," this manager sald. It was suggested that a plan, formerly tried and discarded, be adopted again whereby all the major league umpires be declared in on a substantial cut of the series money and that the league presidents be allowed to pick the best ball and strike umpire on thelr staff and the best man on the bases. The American and Natfonal league ball and strike stars woud! alternate each day behind the plate, and the other two officials would remain on the bases. All through the serfes the pl crabbed continuously about the balls and strikes that were missed by the umpires and several of the pitchers were obviously thrown off by what they considered bad decisions. eee Before the series started, one of the umpires—and there {s no reason to believe that he was preparing an advance alibi—said that there would be a lot called wrong behind the plate after the fifth inning of each game. Players agree with the that it is very hard to judge a bal or a strike laf in the afternoon tn the two New York parks, where the towering stands, which almost en circle the field, cast a lot of shadows on the playing fie'd. The players admitted that in a hole they always felt like cutting at the next delivery, regardless of the chance that it might have been ball, even if they could have seen it During the off season the umpire: are almost sure to seek what they consider a more equitable scale of pay and some of these other ques. tions may be taken up at the same time. ene Many names given the copperhead) snake in various parts of the coun try are, pilot, red-eye, red copper belly; and in the south, cot ton mouth and moccasin. is off the press.
