DiMaggio May
Take Job as
TV Announcer
NEW YORK. Dec. 12—Iff)—Jot
DiMaggio, definitely through ns t
player at the age of 37, is expected
to remain in the New York Yankee
organization in the role of a tele
vision broadcaster.
The great outfielder, who yester
day announced he would never wear
a baseball uniform again — as a
player, manager or coach — is con
sidering an offer as TV commenta
tor of Yankee home baseball games.
While both parties refused to
commit themselves, Yankee Presi
dent Dan Topping admitted DiMag
gio had been offered the TV job
“among other propositions.” Di
Maggio said all his offers denlt
with radio and television and "it
Is possible” he will accept the Yan
kee bid. The TV post reportedly
would pay him $50,000 a season for
three years.
DiMaggio planned to leave for his
home in San Francisco on Friday
to think over all the propositions.
He said he expected to reach a de
cision “some time next week."
The Yankee clipper appeared in
good spirits as he outlined his rea
sons for quitting before grinding
cameras, glaring lights and the
largest sports press gathering since
the days of Babe Ruth.
"Old injuries that lingered on and
some new ones hastened my de
cision to retire,” DiMaggio ex
plained.
Another reason was night base
ball. Joe estimated the arc light
play cut about two years off his
career.

Kazmaier
i
Named Back
Of Year
NEW YORK. Dec. 12—(jP—Dick
Kazmaier, Princeton’s dynamic AJ1
America tailback, today was named
Back of the Year in the Associated
Press’ poll of sportswriters and
sportscasters.
The slender, 21-year-old triple
threat from Maumee, O.. won in a
landslide. He was picked by 76 of
the 125 writers and radio men from
coast to coast who participated in
the poll.
Closest to the Tiger terror was
Hank Lauricella, Tennessee's superb
All-America tailback. Lauricella
was selected by 13 voters.
The two are like peas in a pod.
Both are triple threats, 21, tail
backs on all-winning single wing
teams and are built along the same
lines. Kazmaier is 5-11 and weighs
171. Lauricella, from New Orleans,
stands 5-10.

Dcuglas Huskies
Lose to Mikes in
[ The Douglas Huskies lost a 37-33
I thriller to Mikes last night in the
first overtime battle of the year,
j Isaak's last minute basket and
! free throw tied the game at 33 all
I after Mikes had just previously gone
! ahead on a basket and free throw.
I The game was well played on both
sides and what little fouling occur
I red was the result of the hard,
driving style of play of both teams
i rather than any intentional viola
| tions.
j The Huskies held a slim lead
I throughout most of the game but
the sharpshooting Lou Bonnett
caught fire and pulled his team into
a tie in the last quarter. A basket
by Bonnett and free throws by
Russo and Blanchard put the game
on ice during the extra'period.
Richard Isaak and Tom Cashen
j made 12 and 9 points respectively to
i do the Lulk of the Douglas scoring.
Eoth Isaak and Cashen played ex
cellent all-around games and Jen
sen again did most of the rebound
ing under both baskets.
Wellington and Stevens played
good, steady games and should be
gin to do more scoring soon.
Bonnett of Mikes stood out as he
caged 14 points during the second
half for the game’s highest total.
All of Mikes players got in on the
scoring with one to six points each.
