One year ago today, he was em ployed but worried about keeping his Job, after losing nine out of 12 games as head coach of the Washington Redskins. Today, big Joe is the United Press National Football League Coach of the Year, after his Red skins wound up -as the surprise team of the 1955 season with an 8-4 record and second place in the NFL's Eastern Division. Kuharich was picked by . 15 out of 30 sportswriters who covtr pro fessional football in 11 cities. Sid Oillman of the Los Angeles Ranis ran second with seven votes, and other ballots were scattered among Paul, Brown of Cleveland, Weeb Eubank of the Baltimore Colts, George Halas of the Chicago Bears and Ray Richards of the Chicago Cardinals. Kuharlch's selection was almost a foregone conclusion after the job he d d with the down-troaaen Kea skins. Washington has not finished higher than third In 10 years, pre viously had only one winning sea son since 1945, and was given no chance as a title contender this year. ' But under the ex-Notre Dame star's guidance, the 1955 Redskins knocked off the powerful Browns in the season's opener, and stayed in the running until the next to last week when New York elimin ated them. Kuharich turned out to .be an astute trader and a ruthless pruner completely re-building the Red skins in his first two years as coach. The re-building job extend ed even to the coaching staff only Backfield Coach Mike Nixon j remains of the assistants Kuharich j started with in 1954. , The craggy-Jawed coach dotes on i condition, believing that "too many i games are lost in the fourth quar ter." His Redskins this season ! were rated the finest-conditioned j team in the league, and they made , up in hustle and desire for what ' they lacked in experience and abil- ity. 1 BROOKLYN The Dodgers' 20-game winner, righthander Don Newcombe signed his 1956 contract for a reported $25,000.

While San Francisco retained Its No. 1 status last night by downing Wichita 75-65 at Wichita, Kan., Utah saw its No. 3 ranking slightly tarnished when Dayton won a 77-73 decision In the opener of the Ken tucky Invitational Tournament at Lexington.

Utah suffered only two more losses all season. In the other game at Lexington. Kentucky downed Minnesota 72-65 as Bob Burrow collected 27 points. Dayton will bo a slight favorite over Kentucky in tonight's title game. Kentucky, ranked ninth na tionally, appears to be recovering after a bad start this year.
