PEOPLE, Page 69Radio DaysBy Emily Mitchell/Reported by Wendy Cole
Broadcasting from a Des Moines radio station in the 1930s,
miles away from any action, "Dutch" Reagan took Western Union
reports of ball games and added his own verbal embellishments for
a crackling play-by-play. Ronald Reagan, 78, will be back at the
sports mike next week, but from on the scene. The former First Fan
will provide commentary for one inning during NBC's telecast of the
July 11 All-Star game. After his labors in the broadcast booth, he
has requested compensation: an ice-cold drink and a hot dog.
