po ‘i i Sc GITY OF PITTSBURGH
Hon. Ivan Allen, Jr.
Mayor
Atlanta, Georgia.
Dear Ivan:
In line with our ‘phone conversation of this morning, Mrs. Barr
and I will be taking United Flight Number 473 on Monday morning, April 11th, at
eight-thirty and will arrive in Atlanta at ten o'clock.
I understand that you have arranged for accommodations for us
at the Marriott Hotel. We are both self-sufficient, so please do not put your-
self out. I know how busy you are with the affairs of the City and the extra
curricular duties connected with the opening of the baseball season in Atlanta.
We have accepted the formal invitation for the dinner on Mon-
day evening and Alice and I are looking forward to the opportunity of visiting
with you and Mrs. Allen at that time.
Our reason for arriving so early is that my wife is not a
good flier and the only jet flight we can take, in order to get there in time
for the dinner on Monday evening, is at 8:30 in the mornine,.
I have made arrangements to leave there on Wednesday, April 13th
at twelve noon on United Flight Number 3384.
5
I think the advent of Major League Baseball to Atlanta and the
whole southeast will be a great boon to our national pastime. I only hope that
you are as strong a baseball fan as I.am, as the ownership and management of the
Pirates are petsonal friends of mine.
As you are perhaps aware, we are in the midst of building a new
stadium in Pittsburgh for the Pirates and the Pittsburgh Steelers Football team.
With kind regards to you and Mrs. Allen, and looking forward to
seeing both of you on the 11th, I am
Sincerely yours,
