THE FOREST PARK NEWS THURSDAY,JANUARY 30.1964
GUY LINES CONTINUED FROM PACE 1
increased by eight feet and
the load by 10,000 pounds In
the new ruling.
Some of the trucks are so
long now they cannot turn an
ordinary corner. It is a cus
tomary sight for a motorist,
or motorists, to have to back
down Ash st. when a truck tries
to turn In from Main st., same
when the big ’uns going south
try to turn off #54 into Main
st. And many other points In
Forest Park and Jonesboro and
all over Atlanta.
Ano yet, they are actually
trimming the truck fee for use
of Georgia roads from S7OO to
$650.
That is really something, par
ticularly when a check shows
that neighboring states are col
lecting SI,OOO a truck for a
year’s usage of their roads.
Tech Joins Good ‘League’
Georgia Tech has joined up
with the independents, leaving
the Southeastern Conference
high and dry after some 24
years. It was back yonder a
distance that the Southeastern
Conference was formed out of
a group from the big and un
wieldy Southern Conference.
Later the Southern was formed
again with fewer numbers. Fin
ally, the Atlantic Coast Confe
rence.
The SEC will hardly col
lapse with Tech’s withdrawal
unless several of the other
schools decide to quit too. Flor
ida State and Memphis State
would like to be enrolled and
either, particularly FSU, would
make a formidable member.
But anyway, Tech Is out and
will go It alone as a result
of the 140-scholarshlps limit
on football and basketball. It
is likely that the Yellow Jac
kets have been squirming under
the limitation for Tech’s Is a
tough curriculum and the scho
larship kids have to keep up
in their classes. Many of them
don’t and Tech’s flunks are
probably higher than most of
the other schools’ in the SEC,
higher than all save Vander
built and Tulane whose pas
sing standards are likewise
quite lofty and they receive no
special favors from the profs.
Thus, a long association Is
broken and Tech casts its lot
with Notre Dame, Pittsburgh,
Miami, Syracuse, Penn State
and a few lesser lights In the
Independent world.
They seem to get along pretty
^Attention Please
Fellow Citizens:
I take this opportunity to announce my desire to serve each and every citizen of Clayton County
as Sheriff of our fast growing community. I humbly seek and request not only your vote but your
active support in my behalf for the office of Sheriff, Clayton County.
ELECT
CHARLIE BROOKS
SHERIFF
OF CLAYTON COUNTY
PRINCIPALS ADVOCATED BY CHARLIE BROOKS AS CANDIDATE FOR SHERIFF
OF CLAYTON COUNTY:
★ No relative of Charlie Brooks will be em
ployed by him upon being elected sheriff,
without exception.
★ Real and effective law enforcement on 24
hour basis will be offered by the Sheriff's
office.
★ County property in the Sheriff's department
will be used (including properly marked
Sheriff's cars) only for official business and
for no personal use at the tax payer's ex
pense.

(This Ad Paid For By Friends Os Charlie Brooks, Candidate For Sheriff)
Remember, the roads are built
and maintained with^xpayers’
money and when the enormous
trucks run over them and bat
ter them they are doing the
taxpayer a disservice,
Another strange bit of reason
ing was the downtown lot leas
ing back in 1951 which enables
the lessee to pay less, rather
than more, in an everrgtowing
area, after the lease has run
a certain number of years.
That of course is, and was,
politics and we have discover
ed (all of us) that politics is
quite an unsavory thing. Not
ably around here.
However, it is time the tax
payer rose up on their hind
legs and demanded satisfaction.
Some politicos get away with
murder and are never appre
hended or made to pay tor
their folly.
well and are not hemmed in
with 140 free rides. They can
issue more complimentarles if
they wish.
Miami for some years envied
the other SEC colleges and
wanted to be a member but
after they built up their for
tunes and achieved a reputation
as one of the gridiron powers
th‘«y lost Interest. It would be
unwise, financially, for U-M
to be In the SEC and have to
play six other league schools
every year on a rotating basis,
plus having the 140 scholarship
handicap.
The Hurricanes can schedule
any teams they like and they
go for the big names with rare
ly a breather. They lose some
games all right but as a rule
they pack ’em into the 76,
000- capacity Orange Bowl on
Friday nights. With such a good
sized stadium they can be free
to take their picks, almost,
from amony the top colleges
such as Notre Dame, Pitts
burgh, Wisconsin, Alabama,
Tech, LSU, TCU, Syracuse,
lowa, Purdue, Auburn, Mary
land, Missouri and of course
there are the annual games,
good draws, with Florida and
FSU.
Notre Dame, Pitt, Syracuse
and Penn State also have plen
ty of games, and big ones, so
they don’t have to worry either.
Neither does Tech.
And the big games apply not
only to football but to basket
ball and vlrtuallly all other
sports.
