By RALPH NORMAN The “Varsity Show,” which under direction of John Held Jr. originates each week on a different university campus, has proved a pleasant and lively addition to Friday night's network entertainment. Tonight's show, on WIRE at 9:30 o'clock, is to be broadcast from Ohio | State University at Columbus. Stu- | dents and faculty members are to | participate. The Ohio State Sym- | phonic Band is to play and the Women's and Men's Glee Clubs | will be heard, Nick Wasalyk, var= | sity quarterback, and three other | students are to sing popular songs. | Sponsors of the “Varsity Parade” | seem to have a good thing in this | new offering. Talent costs nothing, alumni of participating universities naturally have more than average | Interest, and it’s a very entertaining half hour for anyone who chances to listen,
