I got curious, so I googled it, but I won’t give it away. Good one, though!

Yes, Harry Truman had fun mocking Kaltenborn’s pronouncement “Mr. Truman is still ahead, but these are only returns from a few cities. When the complete results are in, they will show Dewey winning overwhelmingly” (or something like that).

Einar Gustafson. Icelandic? Bjork is a woman. Who else is Icelandic?

Nope, American.

One more guess from me, then. Ole Olsen?

Nope

It was H. V. (Hans Van) Kaltenborn. Read his entry in Wikipedia for the account of the time Kaltenborn lost a battle of wits to Dizzy Dean. :smiley:

duh
91. Wally Moon; major league baseball player for St Louis Cardinals and probably other teams. I think he was Rookie of the Year in the 1950s.
