Westerner Now Open To Public

The new Westerner Beef Buffet of 2333 E. Stadium Blvd. was opened to the public earlier this week in a $30,000 building built to the Westerner's specifications.
"Prime beef is our prime business," Jack E. Cochran, president of the concern, said today. He opened the original Westerner in West Dearborn four years ago.

Cochran named Sterling W. Mobley as head chef. Mobley has held similar positions at the Cliff Bell's and Meyers Sea Food Restaurants in Detroit and Dearborn.
