Opportunities in elec
tronics seem to be unlimited.
I At present it is estimated
there will be a demand for
| at least five technicians for
। each engineer in this area,
i Job opportunities for Elec
tronic Technicians are un
limited in national defense
industries involving aircraft,
ship building, missile re
search, space program, pro
duction of automated ma
chinery and equipment,
power plants, ordinance
communications and other
experimental and testing
work.
Griffin Tech will begin a
new class in Electronic
Technology Fall Quarter
1967. The Electronics Pro
gram is designed to prepare
the student for employment
at the entry level in the
broad field of electronics.
The program of instruction
consists of classes on basic
and advanced theory of
electronics, components, cir
cuits and systems.
The first year of instruc
tion consists of the basics of
electronics, direct and al
ternating current funda
mentals, vacuum tubes,
transistors and other elec
tronic components parallel
with the subjects pertinent
to the electronic fields, such
as, physics, technical writ
ing, drafting, and basic
through advanced mathe
matics. The second year in
cludes relating the first
year fundamentals to com
plete circuits and systems
such as F M and A M trans
mitters and receivers, micro
wave, television, radar, com
putors and other phases of
advanced electronic circuits
and systems.
Beginning salaries for
electronic technicians in
1964 ranged between $4,500
and $8,868 and often ap
proached SIO,OOO in as little
as three years. The school
provides a job placement
service to assist the gradu
ates in finding jobs.
Applicants to the Elec

A strong background in
math and science is desir
able for the program. Appli

City Council Notes
• Taxes and annexation of lands
were the principal topics of discus
sion at a meeting of the Forest Park
City Council April 18.
One of the oldest taxes—the street
tax—on the books, was repealed.
The three-dollar fee has been col
lected for many years from all male
residents between the ages of 21
and 50. The law' provided that if a
man failed to pay the tax he would
have to spend three days working
on the city's streets.
Two parcels of land were annexed
into Forest Park. This included land
owned by Cherokee Enterprises at
the intersection of Georgia Highway
54 and Alpine Way, and a parcel
owned by Thomas R. Bazzel at the
intersection of Rockcut Road and
Oak Lane.
An ordinance was approved to
prohibit the collection of dismantled
or inoperative furniture, appliances,
machinery, equipment or automo
biles on private property if they
are not enclosed in a building.
The new law gives the city man
ager or mayor the right to notify
the offending party of the infrac
tion and give him 10 days to clear
up the condition. If the owner does
not comply within that period, the
city will bring charges against him.
and each day the situation exists it
will be classified as a separate of?
sense. If the owner is found guilty
on the charges the police will re
move the items from the owner’s
'property.
The purpose of this ordinance is
to protect every individual home
owner in the city by eliminating
any and all unsightly and unhealthy
conditions, which if allowed to
exist, create health hazards and
cause a decrease in property values.
The Zoning Board’s recommenda
tion of retaining a parcel of land
bounded on the north by Ernest
Drive, on the east by a creek, on
the south by Forest Avenue and on
the west by Mitchell Street in the
RM-85 classification was approved.
This classification permits the con
struction of two-family residences,
multi-family residences, rooming
and boarding houses, tourist homes,
and nursery schools and kinder
gartens. The same zoning will be
applied to property located at 113,
115, 119, 121, 123, 126, and 128 For
est Avenue, 140, 142 and 144 Court
ney Drive, and 100, 102 and 104
Hazel Street.
Charges for certain activities of
the recreation department were ap
proved. Included were: ladies health
classes, 20 cents each class; scuba
diving, $5.00 flat fee for each class;
football stadium rental for special
events, $100.00; Forest Park Swim
Team use of pool, $120.00 yearly;

BEST FEED BUY
If the primary purpose of
a feed is to provide protein,
consider its cost per pound
of digestible protein, accord
ing to W. H. McKinney,
dairy scientist with the
University of Georgia Co
operative Extension Service.
Likewise, if the feed is to
fur nish energy, the net
energy value should be used
for determining the relative
feeding worth.
You can take the joy out
of anything by making it
compulsory and expensive.

Controlling Insects
By CHARLES S. TUCKER,
County Agent
Nothing tastes better than
the apple, pear, or peach
that you have picked from a
tree in your own yard. How
ever, delicious and attractive
fruits are practically impos
sible to grow without an
adequate insect control pro
gram. Insects can cause
damage from the time the
tree resumes growth in the
spring until all the fruits are
harvested. Some, like the
peach tree borer, can even
damage the tree during the
winter.
Early in the spring,
aphids, mites, and scale in
sects begin to suck plant
juices from the leaves,
branches, or even the trunk.
Such feeding can cause the
tree to lose vigor and pro
duce fewer fruits. Leaves

may drop, and if the attack
is severe enough, the tree
may even die.
When the fruits first ap
pear on the tree, insects may
feed on them and cause
them to drop or to be mis
shapen and scarred when
they ripen. Even the fruit
that ripens and looks lus
cious may be tunnelled by
caterpillars, grubs, or mag
gots.
To produce attractive, de
licious, and wholesome
fruits, you must control the
insect enemies of the tree
and the fruit.
Several companies manu
facture a home orchard
spray. This spray contains
both an insecticide and
fungicide that is necessary
for controlling insects and
diseases.
