And then, there is Randy Wieser, a 6-foot-1, 205-pound center on the Vanderbilt University football team. According to Scorecard in SPORTS ILLUSTRATED, the propaganda mills of the University, pressed for news to keep interest up during the off season, were issuing accounts of how this player or that is making himself more formful, more formidable on summer jobs that practically smell of muscle. It seems that Randy will take six weeks training in the Marine Corps. at Quantico, Virginia. Then he will go home to Dallas and work in his father's beauty parlor, as a hairdresser.
