Lions Heard
Talk By
Bert Hatch
Mr. Bert Hatch, executive sec
retary of the Georgia Association
of Broadcasters, was the speaker
at the meeting of the Butts Coun
ty Lions Club on Tuesday, Feb
ruary 9th. Herbert Shapard was
program chairman and presented
Mr. Hatch.
Mr. Hatch pointed to regula
tions that are forced upon the
broadcasting industry that affect
no other advertising media and
cautioned that “we may awaken
to find that broadcasting as we
know it today will be gone.”
The report was given on the
“Make Georgia Beautiful Month”
in which the Lions gave away
1,500 dogwood and red bud trees
Saturday. The weather was so
beautiful and the demand so
great that the trees lasted only
a short time. The Lions are now
in the process of obtaining more
to be given away at an early date.
