Covington, a fiberglass boat
plant in Nashville, and (our
newest) a plant for the manu
facture of golf clubs in Al
bany. In addition, our Bowling
Division has a sales Branch in
Atlanta, and our Mercury Mo
tor Division will soon open a
regional warehouse in the
same city.
“Yes, our stake in Georgia is
big, and getting bigger. It was
no accident that Brunswick se
lected your state to share sig
nificantly in its growth. It
came about as a result of a
careful survey of a great many
states. We found the industrial
climate of Georgia ideal from
many points of view.
“Aside from the cold eco
nomic and regional advantages
of locating here, we f o u n d
Georgians to be progressive in
their thinking, co-operative in
their willingness to help us
grow, and friendty above and
beyond the finest traditions of
the South. It is an understate
ment to simply say that we
have had fine co-operation
from city, county, and state of
ficials in realizing our expan
sion plans. From opening ne
gotiations on, we received
splendid treatment and help on
all sides. I want to personally
thank Don Ballard, your re
presentative from Newton
County, for his wonderful work
in making this pleasant visit
possible today.
“Events to this moment can
surely stand as a shinning ex
ample of constructive coopera
tion between the civic and
business interest of a great
community. The kind of rela
tionship we now' share is n o t
something of passing signifi
cance. Business and civic lead-
ers across the country have
become increasingly conscious
of the need for it as the fruits
of this kind of unity have
become more obvious to both
parties. It is good that Georgia’s
leaders have recognized this.
“Before closing my remarks.
I would like to introduce three
of my associates from Bruns
wick who will stay close to our
day-to-day activities in Geor
gia, even though they are at
our headquarters in Chicago.
“Gentlemen, meet the Presi
dent of Brunswick’s Sporting
Goods and Boating Divisions.
Mr. Richard Bennett. Dick has
recently completed a nine-year
tour as Chief Executive of our
highly successful Canadian
Subsidiary. He is a veteran of
17 years with the Company.
“Next to Dick is Casey Pei
fer. Executive Vice-President
of the Sporting Goods and
Boating Group. Casey has been
a key figure in Brunswick’s
growth in recent years. Until
last year, he was Director of
Corporate Development and
negotiated our most outstand
ing mergers.
“Mr. H. Douglas Rowe is
Vice-President of Manufactur
ing for the Sporting Goods Di
vision and will be in direct
charge of our Covington and
Albany plants.
“Finally, gentlemen, as a to
ken of the sincere appreciation
for the fine treatment you have
given us, it is my pleasure to
present to you, Governor Van
diver, this MacGregor DX -
Tourney ball, made at Coving
ton and bearing the official
seal of the state of Georgia. We
have already seen to it that all
of your associates in the room
receive this momento from
Brunswick.
“It is a ball that has won
the Professional Golfer’s As
sociation long-ball driving con
test for the past three years.
We believe it will not only im
prove your own personal game,
but also will score a long and
straight “shot” for Georgia’s
business future. Thank you
very much.”
After addressing the state
officials, Mr. Jacobson present
ed Gov, Vandiver, Lt. Gov.
Byrd and House Speaker Smith
with an all gold imprinted
MacGregor golf ball with the
gold seal of Georgia on a large
golf ball T. Exactly at this time
House and Senate pages dis
tributed to all members of the
House and Senate a similar
MacGregor golf ball on a tee,
a package of four MacGregor
DX Tourney golf balls for
personal use and a new book
let just off the press titled.
“This is Brunswick”.
