meeting were the election of
officers and committee ap
pointments.
Speaking on what the united
teaching profession does for
teachers, Ezzell pointed out that
the Student Association of
Educators gives students a
voice in policy making on the
state level. “The Georgia
Association of Educators has
given students positions on the
Teacher Education Council.
These positions give students
the opportunity to voice their
opinions concerning the
curriculum followed in teacher
education institutions,” he said.

Impact Of Industrial Park
BY JOEY HUCKEBA
The creation of ap
proximately 5,000 new jobs at
Carrollton’s planned industrial
park may effect West Georgia
College.
The new park, located in a
450-acre site on the northwest
side of town, will ultimately
create new jobs, and many of
these will be filled by West
Georgia students, according to
Bob Simmons, chairman of the
Carrollton Chamber of Com
merce. These jobs could be
part-time for students working
while attending school, or full
time for graduates seeking
professional careers.

Carrollton’s industrial park
will also bring many new
families into the West Georgia
area, including college age men
and women.
The recently constructed
Appalachian road, built to
service the park, runs directly
to the back of the college
campus, near College Arms
Apartments, thus creating an
easy access from college to the
park. Also, the industrial area
will be within six miles of 1-20
when the highway is completed.
A 100-acre tract of the park is
owned by the Carrollton Payroll
Authority and 350 acres are
privately owned. Sun Products
THI WIST OIOHOIAN WOViMMU M. 1*74
Corporation, an Ohio firm
manufacturing children’s toys
and athletic balls, has already
announced it will relocate its
headquarters in the 100-acre
tract. The Sun plant will be in
operation by January with an
initial employment of 60, all of
whom will be hired locally.
An Atlanta firm, Barton and
Ludwig Inc., has announced
that it will start construction of
buildings adjacent to the Sun
Products building, already
constructed.
The Carrollton Payroll
Development Authority, an arm
of the Chamber of Commerce,
acquired the 100-acre tract for
the park in 1967. The other 350
acres were initially financed
with bank notes purchased by
private citizens. Federal and
state funds paid for the
Appalachian road, and city
water revenue certificates,
along with a grant from the
Economic Development
Administration, financing
construction of water and
sewage lines.
“At present, all utilities are
available at the industrial park,
in addition to railroad and high
way services,” said Simmons.
