This article needs to be cleaned up considerably. While the piece of information is true, it should also be known that Arne started out as a page and reporter for WGN. In 1960, after Don Cardwell pitched a no-hitter against the Cardinals, fans swarmed onto the field at Wrigley Field, and Arne risked serious injury to get an interview with the winning pitcher. He also was the "Senior Executive Producer of Cubs Baseball" until his death prior to the final game of the 2001 season. He is remembered with a flag on the roof of Wrigley Field that says "Arne" on one side, and "WGN" on the other.

Just as an FYI, Arne Harris was a graduate of Drake University.....5/30/07
