larker

Mays throws out first baseman Norm Larker at the plate trying to score from second base in the fourth inning.

David F. Larker, director of Stanford business school’s Corporate Governance Research Initiative, explained how indifferent or actively hostile management can create a culture of silence:

I again heard asked by a slang-looking man with red whiskers meeting under his chin; "looks like a larker—I must get introduced to her," added the conceited brute.

She's a powerful strong woman Miss Tranter, an' many's the larker what's felt 'er 'and on 'is collar a-chuckin' 'im out o' the 'Trusty Man' neck an' crop for sayin' somethin' what aint ezackly agreeable to 'er feelin's.
