GAME-SHOW HOST JOHN DALY DIES AT 77

John Daly, former war correspondent, network executive, government official and popular game-show host, was found dead at his home Monday, his long-time assistant said.

Daly, who had turned 77 last Wednesday, suffered from emphysema, but "I believe death was due to cardiac arrest," said his assistant, Lila Bader.

Daly, a native of South Africa, came to the United States as a boy. He studied at Boston College.

For 17 years he was moderator of the Sunday night television show, "What's My Line."
