We sugge. sli eikee State’s senatorial
districts would be entitled to three or four representatives. If
seach of the 54 senatorial districts was entitled to three, it would
give a 162-member House. Four would give a total of 208.

Atlanta saw its ambitions for major league sports tremen-

nolds, .executive vice-president of the Milwaukee Braves, and
John Lewis, also o club aide. This gigantic lift or shot-in-the-arm
