His salary was reported less than the .annual Qpe paid former coach Curley Lambeau who left under fire with, two games remaining of his two-year-contract. But Cardinal managing director Walter Wolfner said the contrac* has provisions for. bonuses if the \team wills the division title or league championship. Kuharich, a six-foot 230-pounder hopes helll snag one or both of these plums by employing the . same coacihing tactics that earned Him a rgnutation as one of the riation’s outstanding young coachj eh. ’ . I Kuharich recently resigned at the University Os San Francisco aifter leading that squad in 1951 to lis first undefeated season. i The new Cardinal coa(‘h said he was fulfilling a life’s ambition inreturning to the club for which he played in 1940 and 1941. But he conceded the new pojit will havh its headaches. 3 h The flardinals this year were be* set by bickering among coaches that all but Shattered the club's morale.
