The international air, typical of Detroit, will be emphasized on “Polka Inn,” a new Detroit television show to begin 10:30 P.M. Monday, March 31 [1952], on WXYZ-TV (channel 7). Carrying the theme will be a Bavarian restaurant setting, Alpine costumed Stan Wisniach and his band and the traditional folk dances and costumes of many lands. The half-hour show is sponsored by the Michigan distributors of Motorola and Deepfreeze products.
