HER'S THE PITCH; Chisox's Nellie Real Batting Fox
FRANK FINCH. Los Angeles Times (1886-Current File). Los Angeles, Calif.: Mar 29, 1960. p. C1 (1 page):
   We have had a few letters from fans who object to our occasional references to Norm Larker as Dumbo and Don Zimmer as Popeye, and we would like to straighten out the matter right here and now.
   "It doesn't bother me a bit to be called Dumbo," said Larker.  "I got the nickname not because I'm stupid but because I've got big ears.  Why, some guys still call me Mad Dog, a name I got while I was in the minors."
   "I don't care what you call me," said Zimmer, "just as long as you don't call me late for supper."
  Thank you, Dumbo and Popeye.
