Dear Mr. Allen:
I enjoyed meeting you when I was in Atlanta
last week to see the Braves' welcoming festivities.
It must have been a great day in your life, and
in the life of Atlanta. Being a native Georgian,
I share your pride.
Enclosed are a couple of copies of my story
on the Braves. The story appears on Page 17. I
tried to be as fair as possible, and the story
is not trying to make Atlanta look like a bad
baseball town. It is simply trying to convey the
fact that major league baseball in the Southeast
is a new sport, and will take time to develop.
/
d(
I think you agree that football is the prime
~port in Atlanta, as it is throughout the area.
The Braves will probably have a rough time with
attendance until they establish a Southam tradition.
However, I 1m sure that they will be proud of Atlanta '"\ \}.
as their home.
~
You, sir, have my admiration for all you have '
done for sports and for your city. I have been
sorely tempted to move to Atlanta myself, but my
profession is such that Atlanta really cannot

someday I will move there. In the meantime, I
take pride in the city almost as though it were

Please find enclosed an article which was printe d in the Gr eenville
News on Wednesday, April 13, 1966 regarding the welcome which Atlanta
extended to the old Milwaukee Braves.
The writer is an old Atlanta resident and has been extremely interested
in Atlanta's rec ent progress in the sports field. We were very plea sed, along
with a number o f other people in this area, to see Atlanta obtain major league
baseball. However, we were somewhat perturbed to see that the Braves received
such a "Restrained Greeting".
Surely this article must have been written by someone who hated to see
the Braves move south, as I find it somewhat difficult to believe. It is s inc erely
hoped that my fee lings are correct with regard to this matter.

Iam glad that the former chairman of Atlanta's police committee
———
and former member of Atlanta's finance committee has again had an opportunity
to vib/ voice his old objections to the building of the Atlanta Stadium and to
tas n County, Recreational
the method of financing between the City, O atte
Authority.
Had Alderman Gilliam been able to prevail in the past against
the unanimous approval of the Board of Aldermen, we would now be without
a new stadium, the Atlanta Braves and the Atlanta Falcons, His jadgenient i
constantly wrong in the past, still guides him,
Ihave complete confidence in the Authority and the members
who compose it, They are able citizens who have been appointed by the govern-
ments of the =, city and county. They have done an outstanding and
commendable job, and certainly have the full support of the great majority
of all Atlanta citizens,
Full knowledge of the contractual relationship between the
Stadium Authority and the Braves has been made public at all times. The news
media have been offered complete copies of the contract, and it has received
full and wide public coverage, .
sal ; Somstt-y
Alderman Gilliam's charge that there is anyething sinister about
this contract is as absurb as his present effort} to injure Atlanta's fine success
in major league sports,
He has made mention of the responsibility of the Stadium Authority
to indemnify the Braves or the National League as to legal costs in their move
to Atlanta, I heartily concur and support our defense against Milwaukee and
F ,. their
Milwaukee County in om efforts to break our contract and take the Braves back,
Whatever money Milwaukee wants to spend to attenpt to break
our contract will be matched by Atlanta in offsetting such attempts. We have
the Braves and have them for 25 years, and are perfectly willing to match
dollar for dollar what Milwaukee is willing to spend foolishly to try to get

Mayor Allen's statement on Braves Good Neighbor Program:
"I want to congratulate the Braves for adopting their
forward-looking Good Neighbor Program.
There is absolutely no
question that the improvement of recreational facilities and programs
in Atlanta 1 s underprivileged areas is vital, if we are to curb juvenile
delinquency and help our youth to grow into good citizens.
"We should all make an extra effort to get out to this game
Monday night.
Not only will it be a thrill to watch our team slug it

Dear Mayor Allen:
From an article (UPI) in the Pacific Stars & Stripes Newspaper, Saturday,
16 April 1966, I read of Circuit Judge Elmer Roller's decision ordering the
Atlanta Braves to return to Milwaukee unless the National League agrees to
expand to include Milwaukee in 1967.
I am confident from the many excellent accomplishments your administration
bas done that your diligent efforts will focus once again 1n any area you
deem assistance can be rendered to the Atlanta Braves from your capacity as
Mayor of' our metropolitian city.
I have talked with many :fellow citizens, who are also in the Arn:ed
Fo1'ces and stationed here, and I :found pride and high spirit 1n support
oi' the Atlanta Braves.
Realizing of' course, this case will possibly go to many Circuit and
Federal Courts f'or decisions to be made. I am hopef'ul our season schedule
will not be effected by Judge Roller's recent decision.
In conclusion, we fellow Georgians here cannot physically be of
assistance to you or our fellow citizens due to our absence. However, I
assure you, sir, when I arrive home in August this year if home games
are scheduled I will be there with great enthusiasm.
