Show j REVELS IN BLAZ1MG SUM l Grover Alexander says he lost , six or seven pounds during a ' game he pitched at New York t recently. "But hot weather ' t doesn't bother me." he said. "I t J always could work when other J pitchers had trouble on sizzling t days. My early training helped. t Under a blazing Nebraska sun t I used to follow a reaper for t 91.10 a day. v ' t "But, during those long-ago , J times, there's one experience I'll ' never forget. It was just before t J the Fourth of July, and I want- ' ed to earn a little money to t J spend. I planted corn all day ' for a rich farmer and he gave i t me a dime that night." J |
