The Honorable Ivan Allen
Mayor, City of Atlanta
City Hall
Atlanta, Georgia
Dear Ivan:
I want to congratulate you on procuring the Milwaukee Braves
for 1966. The delay of one year should not be harmful, but actually
should enable us to get a better start in presenting a good front
during that season.
In view of the fact that Legion Field in Birmingham has now been
enlarged to 69,000 and has neither college football, professional
football, or baseball in it does indicate the great need for a major
stadium in a city of our size. I think it is wonderful that you have
provided this leadership for an installation that never would have
been built under the administration of your predecessor.
I sincerely hope that the team will be successful in Atlanta and
that we will ultimately procure a Major League football franchise.
With kind regards, I am
Sincerely yours,
