Mayor Mr. Ivan Allen Jr.
City Hall,
Atlenta, (Fulton Co.) Ga.
Dear Sir:

I heard over radio a few days ago about so mucn
crime is committed here and it is much over tne country.

I believe you said many small town hogrs come to Ga.'s
largest cities and most of all Atlanta.

Also you spoke of sex perverts coming to Piedmont Park.
That last is not new to me. I heard of it 14 years ago. Seen
some evidence of it.

Last Thursday I went to Piedmont park from a place

a few blocks away and while walking a young , fellow about
20 passed me carrying a towel@ and 1 though he must
intend going i n swmiing when surely the pg1l is not open

ntil a few weeks later. I was going to see the annual art
ext. I am 71 and dont walk fast and after reaching the
perk @ rested awhile when walking down by the lake I met

the boy coming back and talzed to him. He said he and two
other boys about his age went in swimming in part of the lake
which is agoeinst the law to swim in any time and the 3
went in entirely naked and the other 2 were still in. However
I think they got out and may have been two long haird hippies
orlLookea like it but were dressed.

A micdled aged friend of mine told me today he went with
his young niece and her little son Sunday and they saw e
youbng men naked. One got ina _ swin and he may have been
Partly covered with his twwell.
it was shocking ofcourse they had been swimming in the
lake. Two lawws broken. Swimmi in lake and being naked,
I vought a Great Speakled Bird mag. from a handsome
young fellow with long hair and he told me Atlanta now had
housey of entirely nude parties ofcourse for both sexes.
Did ‘not say @ Where they are.
Chenging the subject my dear father was buried in a relative.
unsved pert.of Holloway cen etery but crime out there is so much
thet I am araid to visit his grave and so is sister and family
who have a car. Afraid of beingmurdered any time. You know laww
KP Cl ate thing but guess lots cannot bescontrolled. 1 hate it
about my father though.
Iam another Ivan and have been joked and even called
Ivan Allen in Sunday school. thoughtlessly, I never saw you
but in pictures but I ssw and heard your father speaking to elderly
ce itizvens at the 5. Eastern Fair a few years ago.

Yours truly, t a = Y, Ye

2623 Rex Avenue, S. W.

Dear Mr. Gamel:

Thank you for your letter concerning recreation facilities in
Atlanta. When a citizen takes the time to write a letter of this
nature, you may be sure that it is read with sincere interest, and
any suggestions made are given full consideration.

Your comment on gymnasium facilities is pertinent. Our goal
as the Parks and Recreation Department of the City of Atlanta is to
provide well-developed, accessible parks and a balanced, adequate
recreation program. To do this we should reach all ages--~- pre school,
elementary school, teenagers, adults and senior citizens. Our
facilities should be available six or seven days a week, during the
day and evenings. However, funds for these goals have been diverted
for other equally important programs. It is unfortunate but true that
Atlanta does not have the parks system and recreation program it
needs and deserves.

You are correct in stating that few adults in Atlanta make use
of the existing recreation facilities. This is possibly due to the fact
that in most instances knowledge of the basic recreation programs
never reaches the public.

It is not within my power to speak for other agencies such as
the School Department and the YMCA, but you may rest assured that
we in the Parks and Recreation Department are making a definite,
feasible effort to improve existing conditions of our parks and
recreation facilities. Enclosed you will find our projection of
improvements, first steps of which have already been initiated with
completion date set for 1983, Also you will find an even more
tangible report of what we plan to do this summer in our expanded
Summer Recreation Program. As these reports show, we are trying
to correct the very problems you have outlined in your letter.
May I suggest a few parks in your area and some activities in
which you might be interested. West Manor Park located on Sewell
Road, S. W. has outdoor and indoor sports activities for adults
Monday through Friday nights. Ben Hill Center, located on Old
Fairburn Road, S. W., has adult basketball on Wednesday nights,
and skilled and unskilled games for adults on Monday and Thursday
nights. At Adamevilie Center, 3404 DelMar Lane, 5. W., a program
of men's athletics is conducted from 7:00-9:00 p.m. each Wednesday.

I hope that you might be able to avail yourself of these adult
athletic activities offered. For further information on activities
offered in your area, you might contact Mr. Fred Morgan at
758-8739. Myr. Morgan is the Area Recreation Supervisor for
the Southwest section of Atlanta, and he will be happy to talk with
you about Recreation Programs in your area.

Once again, thank you for your interest in the City of Atlanta
Recreation Department.

Very truly yours,

Virginia Carmichael
Director of Recreation

Atlanta, Georgia 30331
Dear Mr. Glover:
Thank you very much for your letter of May 7, 1969
advising me that a golf star ter at Piedmont Golf
Course cursed you on May 6, 1969 for moving a ball
in the rack so you could read what number was up
next.
I am immediately submitting your letter to Mr . Pierce
Whitley, Assistant General Hanager of Farks, for
investigation.
I will not, and do not, permit profanity on the part
of o ur.employees toward the citi zens of this City.
However , we have had constant problems with variou s
golfers atte mpting to move up their ball in the rack
at Piedmont Park, a nd I can well imagine on some
occasions there might be excessive frustation on the
p art o f the starter.
Thank you again for calling this matter to rcy
attention, and I am
Cordially,

Mr. Howard Glover
995 Bolton Road, N. W.
Atlanta, Georgia 30331

Dear Mr. Glover:

Thank you very much for your letter of Mey 7, 1969
advising me that a golf starter at Piedmont Golf
Course cursed you on May 6, 1969 for moving a ball
in the rack so you could read what number was up
next.

I am immediately submitting your letter to Mr. Pierce
Whitley, Assistant COneens Manager of Farks, for
investigation.

I will not, and do not, permit profanity on the part

of our employees toward the citizens of this City.

However, we have had constant problems with various

golfers attempting to move up their ball in the rack
at Piedmont Park, and I can well imagine on some

occasions there might be excessive frustation on the
part of the starter.

Thank you again for calling this matter to my
attention, and I am

Cordially,

Jack C. Delius
General Manager of
Parks and Recreation

Jack, the attached instance was reported to me
and I discussed it with Pete Cole and the
starter at Piedmont Park. The information from
the starter, as usual, was different from the
complaint by Mr. Glover.
According to our
starter, he advised Mr. Glover three or four
times to not disturb balls in ball rack that it was impossible for him to keep them
straight.
According to the starter Mr. Glover
did not remove just one ball but he removed
7 or 8 and they became contused on whose ball
was first.
Finally, after Mr. Glover ignored
the starter's request of 3 or 4 times, to stop
removing balls from rack, starter admitted that
he became very angry and used the language
Mr. Glover : quoted in his complaint.

The golf starter states that he advised you at least
three, and probably four , times not to disturib the
balls in the ball rack and explained to you that it was
impossible to keep them strai ght if the general public
confused the arrangement, etc . According to the
starter, you did not remove just one bill, but seven
or eight, and then both you and the starter became
confus don which ball was first. Further , the golf
starter states that after you had i nor d his request
not to bother th ball rack thr e or four times th t
he became very angry and did, in fact , us the language
st t din your compl int.
While I can cert inly in no ·way defend the foul l ngu ge
used by the •starter in your presence , I must defend
his position in his having advised you th t th gen ral
public could not have access to the ball r ck in th t
it would r ult in confusion ov r who

architectural firms would be involved, the hourly rate would be $12.00 times a
factor of 2.75 to cover overhead and profit. Should the Program take longer than
anticipated, we further propose to guarantee a maximum charge of $7,500.00. After
the Program is written and approved and we have signed the contract for the normal
architectural work, then we propose to credit one-half of any funds paid on the
Program toward payment of the regular architectural fee,

Sine certain consultants will be involved and should be so stated in the
Architectural Contract, we plan to draw up the Architectural Contract after the
Program is written.

We would like to inmediately start work as soon as this is approved, All we
need is your approval on the enclosed copy of this letter.

Re: A Building to House the Atlanta Cyclorama

Dear Jack:

Enclosed, herewith, are three copies of our proposal for the Program
on the Cyclorana Building. We are using this peculiar, double headed
letterhead so there will be no question about the fact that it was prepared
by both offices and approved by both offices, We are now in the process of
printing some special stationery just for this job; however, we were anxious |
to get this proposal in your hands as soon as possible.

Yours very truly,
