This occasion would be far from complete without you and Mrs. joining with us in the festivities that will precede the game and then in witnessing the first of many contests between the Braves and the Pirates. Tuesday evening, April 12, is the date set for the game itself, but the festivities will begin on Monday, 1pril 11. Accordingly, Mrs. Allen and I would very much like for you and Mrs. to be our special guests at the Mayor Is Dinner honoring the Atlanta Braves on Monday evening, April. 11, at the new Marriott Motel. Incidentally, since your city has been one of the great leaders in urban renewal, I think you will be ~ interested to observe that this splendid new hotel represents a $12, 000, 000 example of redevelopment by private enterprise in one of our urban renewal projects. �2 On Tuesday afternoon, at 1:30 o'clock, we would be honored to have you join with us in the great baseball parade for which Atlanta is host. The climax of the festivities will be a program in the stadium at 7 o'clock Tuesday evening just before the game begins. We would be honored to have you j o i n ~ us on this program. Again, I emphasize that the celebration of the advent of major league baseball to Atlanta and the Southeast would be very incomplete without the presence of the Mayor of Pittsburgh and his wife. So I want to repeat how honored we will be to have you and Mrs. as our guests. Complimentary reservations have been made at the Marriott. I am keenly awaiting the word that you will be with us and am looking forward to extending a personal welcome when you land at our airport.

I would like for you and Mrs. Barr to be our guests and have arranged for accommodations at the Marriott Hotel. Pittsburg having been a major league city for many years, I am sure you know the importance of the advent of major league baseball to Atlanta and the Southeast. It just wouldn't be complete without you and your wife, and I am awaiting the news that you will be on hand to assist me on this occasion.

Atlanta Braves Opening OM-4 SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS To put across the biggest opening day baseball ever has seen, we can think no little thoughts. However, big thoughts are a futile exercise in mental gymnastics unless supported with practical follow-through . .. We need the help of all concerned to make certain we have both, for only the thorough execution of this big job in the end will win the day for Atlanta and for the Braves. 1. It is urgent that we get Atlanta into action on season ticket sales. This will take personal contact from the highest levels of the Atlanta business community, directed toward the highest levels of the Atlanta business community, plus efforts at that same level aimed at business lea d e rs in other market cities . 2. We need to start the bal l rolling so that every ad carried in the early part of Opening Week refers to the Braves; every downtown office bui lding takes on the challenge of creating banners; e v ery local theatre enters the act; every school and colle ge hereabouts be comes involve d, as does e v ery t axidriver , e v ery bus driver, every member of the police force .

Plans call for them to see a game, be given personalized tours of the city, and be guests at a superb dinner hosted by Atlanta Newspapers, Incorporated and Jack Tarver. We have already begun working with the national magazines; Look Magazine will be here on assignment right after Washington's Birthday as a first step. We need to get national television, including network news shows. The "Today" Show should broadcast from Atlanta opening day, on the day after, or both. We need more press association series on Atlanta and its team; the hassle with Milwaukee has made this the biggest sports yarn in years. 4. We need to h~ve the cream of Atlanta's business community take on the task of personally inviting the very top leaders of the nation to be their house guests over Opening Day. Every branch of a national firm should have its national president here . game .

Atlanta Braves Opening OM-6 (Summary of Recommendations continued) 5. We need help in pulling our loftiest national political leaders here, and that need goes right to the top. We need all southern governors and many mayors here. 6. We need to get glittering celebrities here, and we shall call on Bill Bartholomay personally to guide and help us on that. We will call on Georgia advertisers who use personalities in their campaigns to have those celebrities here. And of course baseball's o f f i cialdom is a vital part of the program. 7. We need to mount a Mayor's Dinner on the eve of the Big Game which will show the greatest outpouring of Atlanta's elit e --and the nation's well-known figures--that Atlanta has seen since the 1939 premiere of "Gone With The Wind". 8.

Who ever heard of such generosity and spirit on the part of business leaders? It takes Atlanta to put this over. 9. We need to coordina~e with Pittsburgh leaders to get a representative Pittsburgh group here. We need to get plans started as well for the Atlanta leadership to be in New York Friday, April 15, when the Braves open the Mets' home season, and in St. Louis, Thursday, May 12, when the Braves open the new St. Louis stadium. This is the essence of the bold but simple program which we ask Atlanta to support. As we write today, we cannot estimate costs precisely. If all who come to the Mayor's Dinner pay substantially more tha~ the $7. 50 cost per head of the affair, we .can obtain part of the needed funds at that time. Atlanta will spend what is needed, regardless of where the funds come from, we are confident of that .

The Bell & Stanton public relations organization is charged with working closely with the Chamber, with the Braves, and with all other involved groups and individuals. We must see to the action of each committee. Overall supervision will be the responsibility of the firm's president, Alan Bell, from New York, and of Senior Vice-President George Goodwin from the Atlanta office. The specific Bell & Stanton executive under them will be David Pearson of Atlanta. Already the Chamber has offered to lend the firm extra manpower as evidence of strong support. Extra people as needed will be employed on a temporary basis if the pace builds up too swiftly. In any event, additional staff from the New York Bell & Stanton office , headed by Ex ecutive Vice-President Edward Stanton and b y the Ne w York account executive for "Forward Atlanta , " Margaret Larson, will be closely inv olv ed at all times .

It is only now, after Fulton Superior Court Judge McKenzie has spoken, that it is possible for anyone to be able to go all-out on this. Season tickets should be sold to every business organization in this area, for use of its employees and customers. This sales need comes at a time when the Braves organization must turn its attention more and more to spring training. The community can -- and we suggest, must -- help put across this sales effort. 1. We suggest that Mayor Allen assemble in his office ~ group of lead i n g b u sin essmen to take o v er on this project as they would on any e mergency, for we appro ach crisis when we hav e sold so few season tickets this close to Opening Day of our first Big Le ague season .

These officers should contact all corporate customers, urging those customers to buy season tickets to b e used by their e x ecutives, by their employees, and by their customers.

We ask t hat Tucker Wayne work with the Georgia Association of Broadcasters to prepare a special one-minute promotional film for the Opening Day, and these would be made available at no cost tc all TV stations in the entire market area, as well as to as many motion picture theatres as seems feasible (all those in greater Atlanta at least) .

This would be appropriate activity for members of the Junior Chamber to take on_, under direction of the "Forward Atlanta" group at the Chamber. Further, the Chamber should contact the Restaurant Association,the Motel Association and individual major hotels to arrange for lobby displays, special menus keyed to Opening Day, special room notices to be in every guest room each day of the Opening Week.

These would be friends inviting friends, and the guests for the most part would be houseguests. Essentially, we seek to have a significant number of the nation's decision makers in Atlanta, not just for the ball game, but primarily to sample Atlanta's atmosphere in springtime and its spirit in general. To do this properly, we need. help from Lockheed to fly in certain of the guests. Others of course will have their own corporate aircraft or will fly commercially.

That includes WSB staff, department stores, and of course representatives of the Braves. It would seem to us that Arthur Montgomer y , as chairman of the Stadium Authority, might assume responsibility for lining up the sponsoring business organizations.

We would like to call on the active help of all local broadcasters to get this exposure. Further, we would like the help of WSB in particular in seeing about getting the "Today" show either to originate the morning after the game from Atlanta, or to have a part of the show with an Atlanta dateline.

XERO;) qcorr | OBJECTIVES To fill Atlanta Stadium opening night, April 12. To sell a maximum number of season tickets. To obtain maximum interest in the Atlanta Braves -- locally, statewide, regionally through the entire market area, and nationally, It is this year's biggest baseball story. Gaining momentum from all that is done, this operation is a prime generator of maximum favorable attention for Atlanta. Our major objective, then, is to pivot this exciting baseball team and its home city on a 360 degree swing of visibility surpassing any attention any city has received in the past. XERO | /XERO : ‘cory pScEy Atlanta Braves Opening OM-2 ; INTRODUCTION Atlanta and the Braves are linked together; what helps one on opening day supports the other. We have a brief period of time in which to build a strong local ‘penae of this joint destiny. We have a brief period of time to help the entire Atlanta metropolitan area re-capture and put on a continuing basis, the sense of active pride in the Braves they had when the team signed to come here, and which was so manifest as the Stadium itself was completed and opened. All of that was preparation. It was passive, as far as the entire populace was concerned. We asked them to beam with pride, and they did. Now we ask them to move into effective action: to talk up the Braves, to support the Braves, to realize in so doing that all of this effort demonstrates to the nation at large that Atlanta is the city of spirit and "can-do" in the entire United States.

The business community is in City Hall. It is in office with the largest plurality ever given a Mayor of a major city. Now that Mayor needs votes again .--- in the form of an all-out effort in behalf of Atlanta's reputation when the eyes of the nation are on this city opening night, April 12. Essentially, that is what the plan of action on the following pages is all about. Bell & Stanton, Inc.

However, big thoughts are a futile exercise in mental gymnastics unless supported with practical follow-through.. We need the help of all sorioaenad to make certain we have both, for only the thorough execution of this big job in the end will win the day for Atlanta and for the Braves. 1. It is urgent that we get Atlanta into action on season ticket sales. This will take personal contact from the highest levels of the Atlanta business community, directed toward the highest levels of the Atlanta business community, plus efforts at that same level aimed at business leaders in other market cities. 2. We need to start the ball rolling so that every ad carried in the early part of Opening Week refers to the Braves; every downtown office building takes on the challenge of creating banners; every local theatre enters the act; every school and college hereabouts becomes involved, as does every taxidriver, every bus driver, every member of the police force.

Plans call for them to see a game, be given personalized tours of the city, and be guests at a superb dinner hosted by Atlanta Newspapers, Incorporated and Jack Tarver. We have already begun working with the national magazines; Look Magazine will be here on assignment right after Washington's Birthday as a first step. We need to get national television, including network news shows. The "Today" Show should broadcast from Atlanta opening day, on the day after, or both. We need more press association series on Atlanta and its team; the hassle with Milwaukee has made this the biggest sports yarn in years. 4. We need to have the cream of Atlanta's business community take on the task of personally inviting the very top leaders of the nation to be their house guests over Open- ing Day. Every branch of a national firm should have its national president here. This is far more than a baseball game. It is Atlanta's day in the court of public opinion when everything that makes this town great is on display.

We need help in pulling our loftiest national political leaders here, and that need goes right to the top. We need all southern governors and many mayors here. 6. We need to get glittering celebrities here, and we shall call on Bill Bartholomay personally to guide and help us on that. We will call on Gabrgis advertisers who use personalities in their campaigns to have those celebrities here. And of course baseball's officialdom is a vital part of the program. 7. We need to mount a Mayor's Dinner on the eve of the Big Game which will show the greatest out- pouring of Atlanta's elite--and the nation's well-known figures--that Atlanta has seen since the 1939 premiere of "Gone With The. Wind". 8. We need a parade Opening Day afternoon which will be unforgettable in Atlanta's annals. We see this as featuring every high school and college band in the area, each band sponsored by an Atlanta- area business firm; Braves and Pirates stars; the Mayor; The Governor; celebrities.

Who ever heard of such generosity and spirit on the part of business leaders? It takes Atlanta to put this over. 9. We need to coordinate with Pittsburgh isaders to get a representative Pittsburgh group here. We need to get plans started as well for the Atlanta leadership to be in New York Friday, April 15, when the Braves open the Mets' home season, and in St. Louis, Thursday, May 12, when the Braves open the new St. Louis stadium. This is the essence of the bold but simple program which we ask Atlanta to support. As we write today, we cannot estimate costs pracicakys If all who come to the Mayor's Dinner pay substantially more than the $7.50 cost per head of the affair, we can obtain part of the needed funds at that time. Atlanta will spend what is needed, regardless of where the funds come from, we are confident of that.

One thing must be clear: this over all is Atlanta's challenge, for in saluting the’ entry of the Braves, Atlanta salutes itself and she shows the nation once and for all, the kind of fibre that makes up this remarkable community. + # + ixERO cOoPYT  xERO gcory } Atlanta Braves Openin OM-9 ; DETAILED PLANS In the section that follows, we list specific plans, with complete assignments. The Bell & Stanton public relations organization is charged with working closely with the Chamber, with the Braves, and with all other involved groups and individuals. We must aKé to the action of each committee. Overall supervision will be the responsibility of the firm's president, Alan Bell, from New York, and of Senior Vice-President George Goodwin from the Atlanta office. The specific Bell & Stanton executive under them will be David Pearson of Atlanta. Already the Chamber has offered to lend the firm extra manpower as evidence of strong support. Extra people as needed will be employed on a temporary basis if the pace builds up too swiftly. In any event, additional staff from the New York Bell & Stanton office, headed by Executive Vice-President Edward Stanton and by the New York account executive for "Forward Atlanta," Margaret Larson, will be closely involved at all times.

It is only now, after Fulton Superior Court Judge McKenzie has spoken, that it is possible for anyone to be able to go all-out on this. Season tickets should be sold to every business organization in this area, for use of its employees and customers. This sales need comes at a time when the Braves organization must turn its attention more and more to spring training. The community can -- and we suggest, must -- help put across this sales effort. 1. We suggest that Mayor Allen assemble in his office a group of leading businessmen to take over on this project as they would on any emergency, for we approach crisis when we have sold so few season tickets this close to Opening Day of our first Big League season.

The five major bank presidents B. The president of the Sales & Marketing Executives Association 3. If the Mayor agrees, the banks should be asked to use their contact officers, both from the main office and from branches. These officers should contact all corporate customers, urging those customers to buy season tickets to be used by their executives, by their employees, and by their customers. The contact officers should take specific ticket orders -- with no money changing hands. A senior officer in each bank should receive these orders and should relay them to Mr. Fanning of the Braves, who will fill the orders and bill the purchaser direct.

Mr. Fanning, for his part, will. supply daily lists of new purchasers to all bank supervisory officers involved. Mr. Fanning will supply all contact officers with adequate supplies of season ticket brochures and ticket order blanks. He also will see that ticket sales personnel is available at the Stadium to serve purchasers who want to select seats in person. As a final point: ere should be constant radio and TV publicity on progress aign, not dissimilar to the UCA mometer idea. XERO} XERO | _ | XERO : qcoPy | COPY | < | COPY Aen Atlanta Braves Opening OM-13 ADVERTISING SUPPORT Tucker Wayne & Co., as advertising agency for “Forward Atlanta" and for the Braves, is requested to assemble at the earliest moment a gathering of all agencies, all advertising managers, all sales managers of newspapers, radio and TV, all retail sales promotion directors, newspaper representatives and the Georgia Association of Broadcasters to consider the following points: A. Insofar as is feasible, every advertising message placed locally beginning with Easter Sunday, and continuing through Opening Day (the following Tuesday) should salute the Braves, or otherwise speak of them. B. We would hope all concerned would explore the possibility of a special section to be eats in both newspapers on opening day. This would be something to be pulled out and saved. It would be filled with news and advertising material suitable for such a special section, commemorating the day Atlanta Goes Big League.

Every store in and around,gshould have special windows and in-store displays to salute the opening of the first season. Tucker Wayne is requested to assign one staff member to stay with this, working separately with the sales - promotion department of each major store, and working with managers of others. The Braves will make some display material available, but basically all of this should be put together as the contribution of the stores involved. 1. As a subpoint, stores are urged to consider tying their sales which start on Monday after Easter to the debut of the team. Why not call the events: "Braves Day Sales?" D. We ask that Tucker Wayne work with the Georgia Association of Broadcasters to prepare a special one-minute promotional film for the Opening pay, and these would be made available at no cost te all TV stations in the entire market area, de wall as to aS many motion picture theatres as seems feasible (all those in greater Atlanta at least). We would hope these would be run as public service gestures.

We specially ask that the advertising agencies of the four sponsors of the Braves -- Coca- Cola, Pure Oil, P. Lorillard, and Falstaff -- work closely with the coordinating committee.

This would be appropriate activity for members of the Junior Chamber to take on, under direction of the "Forward Atlanta" group at the Chamber. Further, the Chamber should contact the Restaurant Association, the Motel Association and individual major hotels to arrange for lobby displays, special menus keyed to Opening Day, special room notices to be in every guest room each day of the Opening Week. No group is more important to Big League baseball on a continuing basis than the Police Department. We suggest an immediate meeting held with Cheif Jenkins by the executive vice-president of the Chamber, and by representatives of Bell & Stanton, to discuss all matters planned, and to solicit cooperation. fee + _XERO : : ; XERO {XERO COPY eo tS cory |XERO  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
