THEY MAY LOOK like daring* youn£ men on the (lying trapeze. But they’re electric line¬ men. (ii'ty feet in the air, with no net below. They are members of a construction crew that has just completed the first 230,000- volt transmission line in Georgia. The line stretches 102 miles, from Plant Yates, on the Chattahoochee river below Carrollton, to a huge new substation at Bonaire, south of Macon. It takes high skill to build such a line. Just as it takes skill to control complicated switch¬ boards in lightning storms or to keep careful watch on giant turbines. Lineman, load dispatcher, turbine operator —these folks know what to do because they have been doing it for a long time. Nearly every job in the big task of providing you with electric service is specialized and techni¬ cal. Each requires many years of training. The value of this practical experience proves itself every minute of every day. Electricity in Georgia is abundant and dependable. Every one of our employes is determined to keep it that way.
