Biographical Sketch

Si Burick

Simon "Si" Burick was born June 14, 1909, at the family home on Richard Street, in Dayton, Ohio. He was the oldest of seven children born to Rabbi Samuel and Lillian Burick. Si Burick attended Emerson Elementary School from kindergarten through eighth grade, and then he attended Stivers High School.

During his junior year at Stivers, Burick began working as a correspondent for the Dayton Daily News, earning $2 per week for bringing Stivers high school sports reports to the newspaper. Burick received his first byline for an article he wrote about Stivers high school football practice, which appeared in the Dayton Daily News on August 26, 1925. Burick was only sixteen years old.

Upon graduating from Stivers in 1926, Burick entered the University of Dayton as part of the Class of 1930, with intentions of becoming a doctor, while continuing to work at the Dayton Daily News. After one year of college, Burick left UD; he hoped to save up money by working and return to school later. He never returned to his studies at the University of Dayton. However, on April 24, 1977, Burick was awarded an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree.

In November 1928, Dayton Daily News publisher James M. Cox offered 19-year-old Burick the position of sports editor, which was being vacated by M. Carl Finke. Burick accepted the position. Burick remained with the Dayton Daily News until his death.

The first installment of Burick's daily column "Si-ings" appeared in the November 16, 1928, issue of the Dayton Daily News. Thousands of columns would follow.

When WHIO radio went on the air on February 9, 1935, Burick was WHIO's first sportscaster. His daily 15-minute radio programs continued until September 1961. When WHIO-TV was first broadcast on television in 1949, Burick hosted that station's first televised sports program. He continued doing so for 10 years.

On June 28, 1935, Si Burick married Rachel Siegal, a schoolteacher from New York. They had two daughters, Lenore and Marcia. Mrs. Burick died December 31, 1984.

Burick's writing covered nearly every sport, including local high schools, area college football, Major League baseball, professional football, the Kentucky Derby, the Olympics, and many other events. He covered the Kentucky Derby for the first time in 1929 and only missed two thereafter, for the next 50 years. He covered the World Series in 1930 and after missing 1932 and 1933, only missed a few thereafter. He attended the Olympics in Rome (1960), Mexico City (1968), Munich (1972), Montreal (1976), and Los Angeles (1984). He is one of few sports writers to have reported on the first twenty Super Bowls.

In 1959, Burick was elected to the Dayton Newspapers, Inc., Board of Directors.

Between 1954 and 1979, sixteen of Burick's feature columns were included in The Sporting News' Best Sports Stories of the Year. He was elected president of the National Sportswriters and Sportscasters Association in 1971; elected president of the Football Writers' Association of America in 1972; and elected director of the Turf Writers Association of America in 1973.

In addition to his sports writing talents, Burick was quite active in civic issues of the Dayton community. In 1951, he became chairman of the Montgomery County chapter of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. In 1953, he was involved in a project to construct a high school stadium. He was one of the original members of the Human Relations Commission, in 1962. He was chairman of a school levy drive in 1966. He was active in and served as an officer of the Jewish Community Council and, later, the Jewish Federation of Greater Dayton. He was appointed to the Montgomery County Recreation Board in 1967 by the county commissioners, and he was appointed Dayton-Montgomery County Park District commissioner in 1970. Also in 1970, he chaired a Dayton school board committee aimed at studying problems caused by spectators at school athletic events. In 1974, he chaired a Citizens Committee aimed at effecting changes in city taxes.

In 1969, Governor James M. Rhodes chose Si Burick as the recipient of the Governor's Award in recognition of his contributions to the state of Ohio. In 1970, Burick was given honorary membership to the Ohio High School Basketball Coaches Association. In 1972, the Cincinnati Chapter of the National Football Foundation and Hall of Fame honored him for his many contributions to amateur football. He was named National Sports Writer of the Year in 1973 by the Columbus Touchdown Club.

In 1982, Burick was awarded the J. G. Taylor Spink Award, which is given by the Baseball Writers Association of America to recognize worthy contributors to baseball writing. Burick was the first recipient of the Spink award from a city having no major league baseball team. He was also inducted into writers' area of the Baseball Hall of Fame.

In 1984, Burick received the Bert McGrane Award from the Football Writers' Association of America. On April 8, 1985, he was inducted into the National Sportswriters and Sportscasters Hall of Fame. In 1986, the National College Football Hall of Fame and the Associated Press Sports Editors recognized Burick with the Red Smith Award, America's most prestigious sports writing tribute.

Burick wrote three books: Alston and the Dodgers (1966), about Los Angeles Dodgers manager Walter Alston; The Main Spark (1978), a biography of Cincinnati Reds manager Sparky Anderson; and Byline (1982), a collection of his columns.

Si Burick died on December 10, 1986, at Good Samaritan Hospital in Dayton, following a massive stroke earlier that day. He was 77 years old and had been in ill health for several months prior to his death.
