GEORGIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30332

OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT September 8, 1966



The Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr.
Mayor of Atlanta

City Hall

Atlanta, Georgia 30303

Dear Ivan:

Thank you for your kind words in behalf of my efforts
to serve as mediator between the firemen and the City. I
was pleased to have an opportunity to what I hoped might
repay the City in part for its many contributions to Tech,
and you for your friendship and service to the institution
and the Alumni Association,

There are no fees or expenses involved. Mr. Claude A,
Petty, Vice President and General Manager of the Atlanta
Merchandise Mart, made arrangements for the meeting room in
which the hearing was held and provided coffee and coca colas.
He also made available guides and extra service assistants
in setting up and removing the tables and public address
systems, one of which he furnished without cost.

The stenographer who took down and transcribed the
entire hearing was Mr. Fred Burrell, who did an excellent
job. I believe that a note of thanks to Mr. Petty and possibly
to Mr. Burrell is all that would be required.

One requirement as expressed in the Aldermanic Board's
resolution was that copies of my report were to be made avail-
able to the City and to the firemen. I did not furnish the
several hundred copies that would have been required for
complete distribution and you might perhaps consider having
it done by the Mayor's office.

My most sincere thanks to you for your very kind words,
Sincerely yours,
S-
CL
Edwin D. Harrison

President
