Dear Paul:
Re: City of Atlanta v.
Case No, B-42835,
(Parcel 3 Qazs
Senasty 25, 1969, and xh:
heard the above-styled case on
Jiacd on Jeonuary 27, 1969, o
$35,509.00 ta Mrs. Clazxi sum o£ $3,000.09 to Raymond c.
Ballard, the ty = tis Ssscoricty, making a total amount of
$33,500. 00.
We. T Tnase Ke <, testified that in his opin-
fon the marks ae was $36,809.00 and the value
of the leassh: ie total amount of $33,000.00.
The tenant, Mr. Ballard, repre
the value of the leasehold was

Mr. Clark raprasontsd Mes. Clark, and in his opinion the valw of
the land and building wes $60,000.00 net to Mrs, Clack after tha
payment of income taxes.

At the hearin Se fe, Clark attempted to introduce a lease entered
into on September 18, 1968, batwaon Mrs. Clavk and Mx, Ballard
$
nes lease dj che entire building to Mr. Ballard fox a rental of
$4,600.00 a year, This loase covated the term of November 1,
' Sipie to Octabar
31, 1972. On objection, the lease was exclud
D $
Seon compidaration beaause mada after both parties lee
“the ‘condemmation But,
The amount averded by the Spacial Master to Mrs, Clark for her
ieasead fee enterest of $35,500.00 is less than the ar ppraisal of
Me, Dabney of $57,759. 00 and that of Me, Kiekland in the amount
--—-- 0£- $36,809. 00,” Accordingly, I vould not recomend’ an appeal from
tho avard to the OWRes.
2 104 abova
The andunt of $3,000,090 ava xded to tho leosse is ovez
He. Dabney's appzaisal of $1,850.00 and ie, Kirklard's anpraisal
of $1,260.00. 2 would point out thet Me. Ballard has asparently
‘undargone some type of operation, and testified that he only
34 cake xd $2,009.00 from his business last year because of the fact
that he wes in the hospital so much. In addition, he has to walk
with assistance, I feel sure that his physical condition would
inflivence a jury in the event his avard is appealed to a jury.
Considering both the leased fee and the leas:
-is, the tot21 exounts involvad, Mr. Dabney's appzra
$39,600.00 and thr, Kirkland’s appvaisal was $38,00
Dy .00,. Tro
-$atal--son teardse by the Master of $33,500.60 is well within the a
“yenge of the City's appraisal. on as
* !
Neither Me. Ballard nor Mrs. Clark were represanted by counsel at
tha hearing. It may well be that Mra. Clark will anpeal to a
jury inasmich as the amount evarded to then by the Special Master
Mr. ou BR. Ivey
January’ 27, 1969
Paze 3
Was |S some $2,000. 00 le ss than that offered to then ie the City.
oe to the avazd to Mr. sitar I would ‘$ecoeea no appeal watess
an aposal was filed by Mrs. cain in the event of Mys. Clark
Filing an appeal, then I would recoumend that an appeal be file d

Inadequate preparation of food.
The trucks still have not been provided with a cage in.
order to hold food in place.
Schools were not provided with enougn ice,
. The sandwiches were too dry because there was plain peanut
‘butter. In addition, in traveling to various schools, I
found that brownies were being made with peanut butter
and were not completely cooked,
I believe the meals offered could be more substantial if
certain other commodities were prepsred., for examole, the
meals would be much better if meats were added to the sup-
plements.

As to an outdoor recrea tion area , the information we
have from Fayette, Miss issippi is rather nebulous . The
cost of a multiple purpose game court is running about
$3,500 each here in At lanta . It can be done out of
concrete and you could skate on it and have other act i vit i es
r e quiring a hard . surface such as basketball, e tc. Basketball
courts are also running about $3,500 each ; badminton
courts about $3 ,000 each, voll eyball courts about $3,000 ,
and doubl e court t ennis faciliti es about $7,000 . The
engineers es timat e that out door handball courts properly
construct ed and f e n ced would run about $2,000 each . The
co s t of constructing a baseba ll .d i amond, socc er fi e ld,
quar t er mil e cinder track , arch ery range and hors eshoe
pit s , if in fact the land is fai r ly level and requir es
little grading, would run about $25 ,000 including the
lighting .
It is worth noting that we have spent up
to $15,000 for just the light for a l arge baseball
diamond . As to the campsites , they run about $500 each .
Outdoor toil e t ·facilities are shockingly expensive . We
have spent up to $20,000 for ladi es and mens r es trooms .
However, the engineers think that from $8,000 -10,000
would cover this it em . Mis s issippi might want to build
their own or conside r buying one alre~dy pre-fabricated
from Sup er Secure in California. You will recall that
we have us ed Super Secure at Anderson and.Bedford - Pine .
The water fountains ccst $160 . 00 ea~h p lus installation
and water pipe . We are not sure about item 7 11 The
outdoor area which should b e light e d 11 and thus we are
refraining from g iving any s ort of pric e . We r eally
don 1 t know what siz e area the y are _talking a bout.
The
las t item, number 8, calls for construction of a strong
fence around the entire playarea . A six foot fence of
reasonably sturdy gauge runs about $4 . oo a foot installe d .
In othe r word s , a 100 f ee t would cost $400.00; a 1,000
fe e t, .a $1,000.00.

FROM: Jack C. Delius, General Manager eA
SUBJECT: Recreation Assistance to Fayette, Mississippi -
Mayor Charles Evers
Berta Frizzell has checked the airlines and finds that
Delta flies into Natchez, Mississippi which is the
nearest airport apparently to Fayette, Mississippi. The
transportation roundtrip tourist class is $115.50. I
will request for you this amount of money plus $25.00
per diem expense for the one night you probably will.
stay and $25.00. travel expense for a total request of
$165.50. I make reference on the request for travel
expenses to the fact that Mr. Dan Sweat has asked us to
give assistance to Fayette, Mississippi.
As to the cost of construction of the recreation building-
gymnasium and other items, I held a meeting this morning
with the Park Engineers and we came up with some rough
ballfield prices. First of all, a recreation building
that would include a regulation college type basketball
court with two small courts crosswise, rollaway bleachers,
a recreation or multi-purpose room, a library, dance
studio, locker room, showers, etc.,'as well as a special
club and trophy room would certainly add up to at least
12,000 square feet. I have analyzed the square footage
in several of the better gymnasium-recreation building
complexes in Georgia such as Dalton and East Point and
find they run slightly over 12,000 square feet. The
Park Engineers have estimated cost of construction of
this type of building at about $20.00 per square foot
and so you could say that this building, less land,
would cost between $200,000-$240,000. Now, that figure
- would not include the cost of installing lockers, etc.

As to an outdoor recreation area, the information we
have from Fayette, Mississippi is rather nebulous. The '
cost of a multiple purpose game court is running about
$3,500 each here in Atlanta. It can be done out of
conerete and you could skate on it and have other activities
requiring a hard. surface such as basketball, etc. Basketball
courts are also running about $3,500 each; badminton
courts about $3,000 each, volleyball courts about $3,000,
and double court tennis facilities about $7,000. The
engineers estimate that outdoor handball courts properly
constructed and fenced would run about $2,000 each. The
cost of constructing a baseball.diamond, soccer field,
quarter mile cinder track, archery range and horseshoe
pits, if in fact the land is fairly level and requires
little grading, would run about $25,000 including the
lighting. It is worth noting that we have spent up
to $15,000 for just the light for a large baseball
diamond. As to the campsites, they run about $500 each.
Outdoor toilet facilities are shockingly expensive. We
have spent up to $20,000 for ladies and mens restrooms.
However, the engineers think that from $8,000-10,000
would cover this item. Mississippi might want to build
their own or consider buying one already pre-fabricated
from Super Secure in California. You will recall that
we have used Super Secure at Anderson and Bedford-Pine.
The water fountains ccst $160.00 each plus installation
and water pipe. We are not sure about item 7 "The
outdoor area which should be lighted" and thus we are
refraining from giving any sort of price. We really
don't know what size area they are talking about. The
last item, number 8, calls for construction of a strong
fence around the entire playarea. A six foot fence of
reasonably sturdy gauge runs about $4.00 a foot installed.
In other words, a 100 feet would cost $400.00; a 1,000
feet, a $1,000.00.
I am sending Dan Sweat a copy of this memorandum and have
a call into him at this time to ask him whether I should

SUBJECT:
City-owned lot at Richardson and Conley Streets.
At your request, I reviewed our situation on this piece of property
with the foll owing findings :
1.
In 1944, Mayor Hartsfield granted an elderly lady permission
to use this lot. The city had owned it for a very long time.
In the late 1800' s the lot had been used as a dump for "night
soil. " The lady had continued to use t he prope r ty and had
some sort of church constructed on it which the City Housing
Code Division has recently requi re d her to de m olish .
Cons e quently, she does not now occupy the property . This
lady now feels that she has a legal right to the prop e rty,
howeve r, because she has had effective possession for this
l ength of tim e.
2.
In 1967 th e City Parks Department was investigati ng all
city - o wn e d p r ope r ty to determine th e i r feas i bili ty fo r us e
a s playl ot s . Whe n Jack D e lius was investigating thi s p roperty
the eld erly lady (kno w n loc ally as "the witch docto r") plac e d
a "hex " o n h im fo r p r opos i ng to us e h er p r oper ty .
3.
Becaus e of it s po s s ible us e by the Parks D e p artment, the
Law Department initiated an action to determine the validity
of the city's title . Associate City Attorney, Ralph Jenkin s ,
represente d the city and while he wa s unable to remove the
hex from Mr. D eliu s , did s ucceed in w i nning the case and
clearing the city' s title to the lot .
�June 27, 1969
Memo to Johnny Robinson
Page Two
4.
Pete Williams of the Land Department says that the boundaries
of the lot need to be surveyed. He feels that an adjoining building is encroaching on the property.
5.
Because of the time factor, the Parks Department arranged for
another playlot in the vicinity with which they are satisfied.
Mr. Delius advised me that they now have no plans to use this
lot.
6.
Mr. Jenkins advised me by telephone that if the city is serious
in wanting to assert its title to this property, it is important
that this property be put to some definite use or it be declared
surplus and sold. I did not inquire into his legal reasons for
this position, but he felt that the failure of the city to act would
strengthen the claimant's case and could possibly result in
overturning the court's decision . A third alternative, therefor e ,
would be to abandon the property to the claimant.
Very truly yours ,

SUBJECT: City-owned lot at Richardson and Conley Streets.
At your request, I reviewed our situation on this piece of property
with the following findings:
l. In 1944, Mayor Hartsfield granted an elderly lady permission
to use this lot. The city had owned it for a very long time.
In the late 1800's the lot had been used as a dump for "night
soil.'' The lady had continued to use the property and had
some sort of church constructed on it which the City Housing
Code Division has recently required her to demolish.
Consequently, she does not now occupy the property. This
lady now feels that she has a legal right to the property,
however, because she has had effective possession for this
length of time.
2. In 1967 the City Parks Department was investigating all
city-owned property to determine their feasibility for use
as playlots. When Jack Delius was investigating this property
the elderly lady (known locally as "the witch doctor") placed
a "hex'' on him for proposing to use her property.
3. Because of its possible use by the Parks Department, the
Law Department initiated an action to determine the validity
of the city's title. Associate City Attorney, Ralph Jenkins,
represented the city and while he was unable to remove the
hex from Mr. Delius, did succeed in winning the case and
clearing the city's title to the lot,

MEMORANDUM
To: '_ Mayer Allen
From: Dan Sweat
Subject: Proposed $100, 000 Park Project
We have been unable to secure what we feel are good recommendations for
projects through the usual sources and have, therefore, taken the liberty
of making these recommendations ourselves.
In suggesting possible projects we are somewhat at a disadvantage in
not knowing the feelings of the donor. For example, is he motivated by
charitable considerations which would lend itself to a project in some
disadvantaged area? Is he motivated by artistic considerations? Historical
considerations? Does he wish the project to be a memorial to himself
or his family?
In the event that the City were to receive an unanticipated $100, 000 grant,
it would be our hope that these funds could be spent in the downtown area
for the benefit and enjoyment of all Atlantans. Our central city is short
of landmarks and beauty spots even though we have had a program of ,
beautifying small parcels around the city in recent years. For this reason,
we have suggested several projects that would lend character and idenfi-
fication to the downtown areas.
In addition, we have suggested two small park projects to serve specific
neighborhoods.
Central City Projects
1. The redevelopment of the Pershing Point Park at the intersection of the
Peachtrees. Even though this has been publicly announced, it is unfunded
and, considering other priorities, it will probably not be built for
i nie
Memo to Mayor Allen
Page Two
October 6, 1969
4.
5.
6,
some time, The plans that the Park Engineers have developed are
imaginative. This park will be a Hurt Park" type focal point in what
is already a substantial neighborhood of new office buildings, restaurants,
etc.
Beautification of Five Points. Not just a few trees, but a real effort
to convert the area into a landmark area. New sidewalks... imaginative
redesign of the traffic islands with plantings, etc., new gas light lamps
such as those used in Underground Atlanta. . . some sort of statuary
or art work that would create the attention (to a lesser degree) as
does the Picasso in Chicago. One problem here might be space, but
the closingof the short traffic lane between the traffic island and the
William Oliver Bubiding and the Bank of Georgia Building so as to
create a plaza might be feasible,
Purchase and beautify the old filling station site (now, in effect, a
traffic island) at Memorial and Central. This intersection is a major
entrance into the downtown area, especially the governmental section,
This project has been proposed in the five-year capital improvement
program, but no provisions have been made for funding the project in
the foreseeable future.
Conversion of Currier Street. This street is just two blocks long
running from Peachtree to Piedmont at the Auditorium and Exhibit
Hall main entrance. This could be abandoned as a street and converted
to a park-like mall for pedestrian traffic from Peachtree into the Civic
Center Complex. The only problem is that thie street borders the rear
of the property proposed as the new Greyhound Bus Terminal and also
the existing parking and service facility for the Atlanta Transit System,
Purchase of a historic house for renovation and preservation. Atlanta
is short on such historic featuges, The ante-bellum Judge house on
Fairburn Road is a possibility. The Col..L.P. Grant home on St. Paul
Avenue, S,E. is probably too far gone. The historical society could
recommend one.
Beautification of Marietta Street between Five Points and Spring, This
wide street has perhaps the best potential of any other street in the centra
business district and already includes the distinctive Henry Grady
monument, An imaginative median could be designed . ..:a gas light
therne could be continued up from Five Points. . . trees and other
plantinge could be provided such as was done along Peachtree at Peachtree
Center. . . perhaps a fountain.
Memo to Mayor Allen
Page Three
October 6, 1969
7. A focal point such as the St. Louis Arch, Atlanta's could be an
artistic conception of the ''Phoanix Rising'' as is depicted on the
Seal, It should be of iropressive size and placed in a location that
would command attention, Inside or in connection with the Interchange
might be a good place if it could be worked out. One other possible
place would be the area of the Brookwood Interchange on either the
vailroad property or on Atlantic Steel property if arrangements could
be made,
Neighborhood Projects
l. Bevelopment of a small neighborhood park on the property located at
White Street and Rose Circle in Southwest Atlanta, This property is
just on the edge of the West End Urban Renewal Project, but not
major redevelopment in this area is in the plans. Because it is in
the redevelopment area, however, the property can be dedicated to
the City and all of the funds can go into improvements.
2. Development of a play lot in the Lincoln Homes area of northwest
Atlanta. This is on public housing property and can also be dedicated
so that all of the donated funds can be used for development.

MEMORANDUH
TO: Miss Jimmie Mims, Assistant Director of Recreation
FROM: Jack ©, Delius, General Manager of Parks and Recreation
SUBJECT: Shuttle Bus + Atlanta Stadium toe City Hell
In that Miss Carmichael is on vacation thie week I am addressing
this matter to you. Mr, Howard Monroe, Superintendent of City Hall,
advises that the bus wa are operating to transport employees to and
from City Hall and the Atlanta Stadium Parking Lot has received
something less than a hearty reception from employees. Presently
fewer than five are utilizing the bus. Mr. Monroe advises that he
will recommend to Mr. Landers that the transportation be discontinued
by the end of this week. This will give him time te notify the few
Who are riding, Also Mr. Monroe advises that on several moruings
the bus has been quite late, ‘This morning Mr. Monroe understood that
it did not even run, but I saw it myself and it was probably very
; by the 50,000 odd delegates to the religious convention at
the Atlanta Stadiun.
In any event, speak to the driver about being on time and perhaps
if it is advisable you might warn him that it appears by the end
of the week we will discontinue this service.
Thank you very much.

· Eden Rag Company (Ira Street)
I am attachin·g ··for each of you a Xerox of a proposed Recreation
Program to take place -at the former Eden Rag Company building on
Ira Street. I am asking Joe Gentry to coordinate all the improve· ments to the building and the surrounding land, and have already
discus sed some of this with Mr. Roland Ebright, Foreman of Adams
Park. It will be necessary to ask Fred Shepherd to give us his
opinion as soon as possible as to the practicality of moving certain
pieces of superstructure in the warehouse section of the building.
Also, · Mr. Earl Landers advises that Pete Peterson, of the City
Hall, has a number of spare plumbing fixtures we might use in
replacing those vandali zed . You should talk to Mr. Grady Butler,
the Extension Area Manager of Sum-Mee, and discuss the particulars
on the renovation of this building. Overtime is authorized through
Range 46 for painters,· carpenters, electricians, to get on this
project immediately. Severa l trees will have to be removed, lights
added to the field and general illumination (not professional
athletic lights), utilities turned on, a telephone installed, etc.
Please r e vie w the attached list.
Miss Mims, it is the City ·s wish to staff this facility as soon as
practical and to supply the equipment on the attached list where
possible. Please have your Recreation Coordinator or the Recreation
Supervisor work closely with Mr. Butler. An excellent job has been
done in organi zing the Neighborhood Advisory Committee, and we
should c e rtainly l e nd an ear to their advice.
Finally, the first order of business will be to regrade and make
playable the ball field to the north of the build ing and the
construction of a ball field to the south of the . building.
Mr. Butier can fill you in o n this. A nQmber of City official s

GENERAL MANAGER i
rs Mr. Joe Gentry, Parks Engineering
Miss Jimmie Mims, Assistant Director of Recreation
FROM: Jack C. Delius, General Manager of Parks and
Recreation
SUBJECT: _ Eden Rag Company (Ira Street)
I am attaching for each of you a Xerox of a proposed Recreation
Program to take place at the former Eden Rag Company building on
= Ira Street. I am asking Joe Gentry to coordinate all the improve-
ments to the building and the surrounding land, and have already
discussed some of this with Mr. Roland Ebright, Foreman of Adams
Park. It will be necessary to ask Fred Shepherd to give us his
opinion as soon as possible as to the practicality of moving certain
pieces of superstructure in the warehouse section of the building.
Also, Mr. Earl Landers advises that Pete Peterson, of the City
Hall, has a number of spare plumbing fixtures we might use in
replacing those vandalized. You should talk to Mr. Grady Butler,
the Extension Area Manager. of Sum-Mec, and discuss the particulars
on the renovation of this building. Overtime is authorized through
Range 46 for painters, carpenters, electricians, to get on this
project immediately. Several trees will have to be removed, lights
added to the field and general illumination (not professional
athletic lights), utilities turned on, a telephone installed, etc.
Please review the attached list.
Miss Mims, it is the City's wish to staff this facility as soon as
practical and to supply the equipment on the attached list where
possible. Please have your Recreation Coordinator or the Recreation
Supervisor work closely with Mr. Butler. An excellent job has been
done in organizing the Neighborhood Advisory Committee, and we
should certainly lend an ear to their advice.
Finally, the first order of business will be to regrade and make
playable the ball field to the north of the building and the
construction of a ball field to the south of the building.
Mr. Butler can fill you in on this. A number of City officials
have expressed personal interest in the success of this program and I
Memo to: Mr. Joe Gentry ‘ May 2, 1969

‘appreciate their cooperation. The Optimist Club of Executive

project and Mr. Johnny Robinson is currently contacting this
group to determine what aid may be forthcoming. .

Dear Virginia :
Miss Bessie L. Whitehead was rated by Alberta, Marvin,
and me on January 29. Noee of us gave her a passing score. She did
not impress me as someone who had the temp,.erament, personality, or
back~round to make a successful Recreat io n Leader.
She came to my office yesterday in a very angry mood,
threw the letter on my desk, and said she was not going to take that
king of 11 - - - - 11 • She talked on for quite some time, saying, among
other things, that s he was not going to told no if she had to get a
gun and come up here and shoot somebody.
I did not say a great deal to her - I was listening
most of the time - but I was polite and tried to be helpful. She see med
to have calmed down some when she left.

Attached you will find information which I have discussed
with you on the phone, also some information from the
Personnel Department. I have done intensive investigation
to see who Miss Whitehead might have talked with in the
Division of Recreation who said they simply could not
understand how she could have failed the oral. She could
have talked to some staff member working in the field.
However, she did not talk to anyone in the administrative
office,
I trust this meets with your satisfaction.

CYCLORAMA SURVEY
A SUMMARY OF QUESTIONNAIRES
February 17, 1969
As of January .24, 1969, 2,013 of the 5,000 postcards were returned to
this office. This represents an impressive response of 40.3¾. We
understand from public opinion firms, etc., that as much as a 10¾
resp~nse is considered adequate and favorable.
Seven basi j questions were asked on the survey card and not every
question was answered by everyone who returned a card. As to the
question, 11 Your home town or point of origin?, 11 l, 97 3 responded.
Of this number, 966 (or 49¾) were from the southeastern United States.
They represented a total of forty-five states and the District of
Columbia.
Interestingly enough, 1.89¾ of all visitors during the period
tested were from foreign countries. Those listing Atlanta under question
one represent 7.6¾ of the survey, and those from outside Atlanta but
living in Georgia represented 10.9¾ of the survey.
As to question two, 11 Are you on vacation or a business trip?, 11 61.6¾
were on vacation, 21.8¾ were on business, and 16.5¾ were on business
and vacation.
As to question three, 11 How did you hear of cyclorama?, 11 a total of 1,689
of the 2,013 cards responded to this question. The largest single group
were told of the Cyclorama by friends, with the next group having heard
of it through relatives, and the third group bein g natives of the City
of Atlanta. Georgia Welcome stations, encyclopedi as, Georgia Motor Club,
tax i drivers, newspapers, magazine s and history books, Welcome Wagon,
etc. were listed as sources where the tOurists learned of the Cyclorama.
As to question four, 11 Did you have trouble locating the park?, 11 of the
1.960 who responded to this question, only 12 . 1¾ said they had trouble
locating Grant Park.
Questio n five.
This i ·s a very important question consisting of the
11 Did you
following:
come to Grant Park specifically to see the Cyclorama;
· or, to see the Zoo and Cyclorama; or, to see the Zoo and decided to
visit the Cyclorama? 11 A total of 1,.939 of the 2,013 answered this
question.
79.9¾ stated they came td Grant Park e x clusively to see the
Cyclorama ; 17¾ said they came to Grant Park to see the Zoo and the
Cyclor ama, a n d only 3 . 1¾ stated they came to Gran t Park prima r i ly t o

CYCLORAMA SURVEY
A SUMMARY OF QUESTIONNAIRES
February 17, 1969
As of January 24, 1969, 2,013 of the 5,000 postcards were returned to
this office. This represents an impressive response of 40.3%. We
understand from public opinion firms, etc., that as much as a 10%
response is considered adequate and favorable.
/
Seven basic questions were asked on the survey card and not every
question was answered by everyone who returned a card. As to the
question, "Your home town or point of origin?," 1,973 responded.
Of this number, 966 (or 49%) were from the southeastern United States.
They represented a total of forty-five states and the District of
Columbia. Interestingly enough, 1.89% of all visitors during the period
tested were from foreign countries. Those listing Atlanta under question
one represent 7.6% of the survey, and those from outside Atlanta but
living in Georgia represented 10.9% of the survey.
As to question two, "Are you on vacation or a business trip?," 61.6%
were on vacation, 21.8% were on business, and 16.5% were on business
and vacation. j
As to question three, "How did you hear of Cyclorama?," a total of 1,689
of the 2,013 cards responded to this question. The largest single group
were told of the Cyclorama by friends, with the next group having heard
of it through relatives, and the third group being natives of the City
of Atlanta. Georgia Welcome Stations, encyclopedias, Georgia Motor Club,
taxi drivers, newspapers, magazines and history books, Welcome Wagon,
etc. were listed as sources where the tourists learned of the Cyclorama.
As to question four, "Did you have trouble locating the park?," of the
1.960 who responded to this question, only 12.1% said they had trouble
locating Grant Park.
Question five. This is a very important question consisting of the
following: "Did you come to Grant Park specifically to see the Cyclorama;
‘or, to see the Zoo and Cyclorama; or, to see the Zoo and decided to
visit the Cyclorama?" A total of 1,939 of the 2,013 answered this
question. 79.9% stated they came to Grant Park exclusively to see the
Cyclorama; 17% said they came to Grant Park to see the Zoo and the
Cyclorama, and only 3.1% stated they came to Grant Park primarily to
see the Zoo and, while there, decided to take in the Cyclorama.
Question six asks, "Do you feel the Cyclorama should be moved to another
location?" Of the 2,013 answering this question, (please note every
card answered question six) 76% said, "No, do not move it to another
location." 9% said, "Yes, do move it," and 15% had not reached a con-
clusion. Of the 2,013 cards which answered question six, 217 were from
the Atlanta Metro area. Of these 217, 75% said; "Do not move the Cyclo-
rama," 19% said, "Do move it," and 7% had no opinion.
Question seven asks, "Would you rather see the Cyclorama located near
downtown motels, civic centers, etc.?" Again, 2,013 of the 2,013 returned

cards answered question seven. 74% stated they would not prefer to see

Of the 2,013 cards answering question seven, 217 were from the Metro
area. Of this 217, 74% said, "No, do not move it downtown," 15% said
"Do move it downtown," and 11% had no’ opinion.
