Eyes Big Time,
Says Wismer
By MITCHELL TENDLER
HARRY WISMER was principal
speaker at the recent Wayne
University "fraternity night" fes-
tivities. The ace ABC sports di-
rector left behind some very
potent food for thought.

THAT MILLION - DOLLAR
,voice of Wismer's rang out as
convincingly as if he were broad-
casting the week's top football
contest, and it was difficult not
to be convinced.
Knows Plenty People
ZARZA KNOWS a great many
people in the football' business.
At the Campus Club banquet last
spring, Nick Kerbewy, -the De-
troit Lion publicity director, said
he was amazed that Zarza had
not become a head coach long
before,
Kerbewy also remarked, laugh-
ingly of course, that it wouldn't
be long before the Wayne enroll-
ment would be swelled by the
influex of steel workers from
Zarza's native East Chicago mills
coming to the Cass avenue school
for a liberal "education."
That's the way good football
teams are born.

Bulletin
Zarza knows what it's all about.
And he definitely would NOT
have come to Wayne had he
thought he was going someplace
to be buried.
Wayne now has upwards of
19,000 students. At last count it
was the sixth largest university
in the country.
There is no reason why a school
like that cannot field a top-flight
football squad.

with Bo MacMillan.
