- Unforgotten German sport reporter, gifted with a metallic and incisive voice. Highly impressive was his report from the 1954 soccer world cup final in Berne, Switzerland, when he screamed ecstaticly from time to time, following the highlights and especially at the end of the game when Germany prevailed over Hungary - an inestimable triumph for the young Federal Republic of Germany.
