Wolverines' Crisler Coach Of Year

NEW YORK, Dec. 9. (UP) — Herbert "Fritz" Crisler, who turned Michigan's Wolverines through an undefeated-untied season into the Rose Bowl, today was named "Coach of the Year" in the New York World-Telegram's annual poll. Crisler beat out Matty Bell of the Southwest Conference Champion Southern Methodist University Mustangs in the balloting. Crisler received 68 first place votes to 40 for Bell. Lynn Waldorf of California, winner of the award when he coached Northwestern in 1935, was third with 38 and Frank Leahy and Notre Dame fourth with 37. Crisler succeeds Coach Earl (Red) Blaik of Army. Members of the American Football Coaches Association annually select the coach of the year in the poll, with a special committee of the organization overseeing the balloting. This was the 13th such poll conducted by the World-Telegram and other Scripps-Howard newspapers.

(Continued from Page Six) ing across the outfield grass and smilingly remarked: "I think we have found the guy." Almost "Another Ruth" By finding "the guy" McCarthy meant the man who was to fill the shoes of the great Babe Ruth, the fading Bambino whose wonderful years were rapidly drawing to a close. But everything had seemed to happen to Dixie—a broken leg, fractured collarbone, a torn shoulder ligament which prevented him from throwing and a left knee which wouldn't stay in its socket. The Yanks kept shuttling him to the minors and early in 1930 McCarthy took him aside and said: "Dixie, I'm sorry but we have to let you go." Walker felt that it meant the arm and shoulder never would come back. So when he was released to the White Sox he underwent operations which mended those ills. But Chicago wasn't his niche, either, and in 1936 he was traded to Detroit. Still he didn't get going and finally, in July, 1939, the Dodgers picked him up on waivers. That was the real start of Dixie's big time career. For in Brooklyn he found his stride and in 1940 clinched his job. Since then, for eight and a half years, Dixie has been a big man in Flatbush for an organization which relies almost entirely on youth. There he won his one batting title, hitting .357 in 1944, and was a key man in two Dodger pennant drives. Still Some Playing Days Walker could still have stayed in the organization. But even though he loves its style, atmosphere and its people he still feels there is some major league baseball in those bones. That's why Dixie goes to Pittsburgh—and why they'll probably love him there, too.
