...take some remedial action last week and axed third-year head coach Bill Arnsparger in what should prove a futile attempt to shake up the moribund squad. His successor is assistant coach for "research and development" John McVay, who played collegiate ball with Arnsparger on a 1950 Miami of Ohio squad that included 19 other present NFL coaches...

Goodrich in Akron, he went to Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, served in the Air Force, then joined General Electric and studied at Cincinnati's Xavier University for a degree in business administration. In 1966 Backe moved to Silver Burdett, the publishing arm of General Learning Corp., a joint venture of GE and Time Inc. By 1969 he had become president of General Learning, leaving it in 1973 to head...
