Commission Referee David P. How ruled yesterday that Ernest E. Nemeth, former Denver university griddor, was, in effect, an employee of the university and therefore entitled to disability pity which may exceed $1,000 plus medical expenses. How ruled that Nemeth, 24, be paid a total of $178.05 for a three- month period of total disability and his weekly "salary" until otherwise ordered for temporary disability, He also ruled that his medical expenses, up to $1,000, be paid, Nemeth, a stocky 190-pound ax- guard, was injured during spring practice of 1950.

Unable to work at part-time university job 1 because of a dislocated vertebral disc, ha Hied a disability claim with the London Accident nnd Guarantee Company, which carries a blanket insurance policy on all university employes, When the London company denied his claim, Nemeth filed tha Industrial Commission claim. During the Industrial Commission hearing, Nemeth testified that a $50-a-month part-time job, free training-table meals 'and free board depended solely on his ability to make the varsity team. In his decision, Referee How said: "Wlille many students obtained employment by the university, the advantage enjoyed by athlcten appears to have been that the duties imposed upon them were nominal or non-existent. "Tho question presented is whether or not, as a football player, claimant wan tin employee of the University of Denver. The relereo find from the evidence that when claimant entered school in the fall at 1948 wns Informed that retaining hi; job and meal ticket weiro dependent on whether or not ha made team.

Having done so, he war later informed that should a candidate dislodge a veteran from his berth on tho varsity squad, his job and meal card would go with the victory nothing 'was required loi the gratuitous meals other than that ho retain his status on tho squad." He continued; "It is common knowledge that a football player's work is directed in the 'minutest detail' by the coach (employer) and that ho may be replaced (discharged) at tho discretion of the coach upon the conclusion oi any play without liability. So may the player 'turn in his suit' at any time he pleases without liability. therefore, seems Inescapable that the relationship which existed between the University of Denver nnd the claimant was approximately the same as that which has existed be- tweon tha school and player ever since football entered the ranks of big business, that of employer and employee." Referee How ordered that the London company pay compensation to Nemeth at the rate of $11.87 per week from June 11, 1950, to Sept. 24, JS50, inclusiva for "temporary total and compensation at the same rate since then "until the further order of the commission" for temporary partial disability. Attorney Charles W.

Cheldoa representing the London company said there "was no question about it" that he would appeal the decision. L.

He slumped on a stool in the dressing room after that 8 to 2 victory over tha Giants which squared tha World Series at two games each and ttfere was a happy light in his eyes. "That," he sighed, "was the most satisfying oi them all!" Joe DiMaggio, just a lew games away from the end of the baseball trail, was speaking of the two run homer he blast-ed into the upper left field stands at the polo grounds in the fourth game. They had gone out there, the Yankees, trailing by two games to ono and with Sal (The Barber) Maglie, ace of the Giant, pitching staff, slated to go against them. Their prospects were dim, for they hadn't been playing well. But before they went, Manager Casey Stengel locked the dressing room door, looked them over scornfully and snapped: "Let's see you play like Yankees." So they went out and it was the Clipper, hero of great Yankee teams since 1936, who showed them the way.

Joe hadn't been much help to date. He had gone to bat 11 times in the first three games--and hadn't, had a hit. Then he walked up there in the first inning and was called out on strikes. Hi? shoulders slumped in dejection as he walked disgustedly away, but ho straightened them quickly. 'I told myself, let's play like Yankees," Joa recalled.

So there was a new purpose in his stride as he went up to the plate in the third inning and lashed out a single to left. But this didn't satis- GIANTS SET PURSE RECORD NEW YORK or lose, the New York Giants will set new player payoff records for the World Series. Although not official until announced by Commissioner Ford Prick it was learned today tha Giants voted to split their series purse into 31 shares.

If they lose each share will be worth $5,192.17. The Yankees, spreading their money around more, voted 38 A winning share will return $6,539.89 and a losing one only $4,359.65. fy the Clipper. It wasn't one of nil old patented clouts. "I knew, though, that I had m) eye on it and that I was swlngin) better than I had been in weeks," h( smiled, showing that old piano ka grin.

"And I figured, when I up there in the fifth that I ws going to do something." He did. With Yogi Bcrra perchei on first, the Clipper swung Into tM ball with that familiar old-tlmi rhythm and rocketed it up Into thi sea of faces in the stands. A lot ot "Chinese" or cheap homers are hli in the polo grounds, but there wasni anything Mongolian about that the Clipper mauled. It reallj up there. "I guess I've hit longer ones, 01 ones which would have been longer," the laughing Di Mag admitted "I remember one against Dizzy Dean in the 1938 series and one hit in 1938.

But, I'll tell you, thta OIM was hit, too." It was tho eighth World home run that Di Magglo had delivered in his brilliant career. It wai one, which, the way had beta playing, he never expected. "That's why," he repeated, "it WM the most satisfying one of Ha knew that he still was "Thi Clipper," and now he could step down proudly and not llkt a hm- been.
