Please join us for our next chat in  #readers_corner at 8:30 P.M. (EDST) May 5th, 2018 -- 00:30  A.M. (GMT) May 6th -- for a discussion of "False Colors"  by Zane Grey.

To refresh your memories:  Zane Grey was an american sportsman, novelist, and ourdoorsman.   He is most well known for his many Books about the American West, many of which have been used as scripts for Western Movies.  He wrote about things he knew, and his Westerns reflect his deep respect for those pioneers and settlers who developed the states west of the Mississippi.  His sports stories are all based in his personal adventures as a young baseball player (attending the University of Pennsylvania on a baseball scholarship), and his many adventures matching wits with the big game fish of the American littoral.

This story, which seems to be based on one of his own personal experiences during his college years, tells the story of a young university pitcher throwing for a local "home team" amateur ballclub.  The moral of the story is that faint heart never won a ballgame or a young maidens heart.  I think you will like the story.

The story is available on line at:
