The rumor that Wes Fesler, head basketball coach and assistant football coach since 1933, will leave Harvard, was confirmed last night when Harold S. Wood, the Wesleyan director of Physical Education, announced that Fesler had been appointed head football coach at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut.
When he was told of Fesler's appointment, Dick Harlow, head football mentor said, "We indeed are sorry to see Wes Fesler leave Harvard for he has done excellent work here. We congratulate him heartily on his new position. Wesleyan is very fortunate to get a man of his type and ability."
Former All-American
Fesler, a coach here for seven years, will leave Cambridge at the end of the present basketball season in March to take up his duties at Wesleyan. Besides being head football coach, Fesler will also be connected with the varsity basketball coaching staff, and will head freshman basketball.
Born in Youngstown, Ohio, Fesler was graduated from Ohio State University in 1931, where he was an All-American football player, and an outstanding basketball star.
