PUBLIC FORUM
Letter To Editor
FORT VALLEY, GA.
Dear Dan:
I have just learned that I will
be leaving Fort Valley to assume
duties in the Atlanta office cf the
State Game & Fish Commission
on September 1st. Contrary to ru
mors which are now circulating
in this area, the Fort Valley of
fice will not be closed.
Our fine friends and the excel-
lent schools are only two of the
many reasons that my family and
I regret having to move from Fort
Valley, and we shall always re
member these past three years
here in Fort Valley as a most
pleasant part of our life.
I want to express to the Leadex-
Tribune my sineex-e appreciation
for the excellent coopex-ation I
have received during the past
three years. Your willingness to
keep the public informed of our
programs and work made my job
much easier.
My office in Atlanta will be lo
cated on the fourth floor of the
State Capitol and I invite my
friends from this axea to visit me
whenever they might be in Atlan
ta.
Again, my thanks to you and
your staff.
Yours very truly,
Robert S. Baker, Chief
Fort Valley District
