HE MAKES WILLOW RUN RUN: This is the man few passengers know about, although he has a hand in almost every operation and activity at the airport with which a passenger or sightseer comes in contact. He is Harold F. Palmer, manager of the airport and representative of the Airlines National Terminal Service Co., Inc. (ANTSCO). As "boss" of the airport, he has the job of supervising such consolidated services as the joint operations office, which serves the seven airlines at Willow Run, and acting as liaison between the commercial concessions at the field and the University and Kaiser-Frazer. Part of the job of his office is to draw up a monthly payroll of approximately $115,000 for the 445 persons who work for the ANTSCO. Palmer is pictured above as he looks out the window onto the "apron" of the airport.
