Sanders Speaks
| To 300 Boys At
Training School
In the short time he has been
in office, Gov. Carl E. Sanders
has gained the reputation of be
ing a precedent-setting governor.
Latest evidence of this was seen
the other day when the youthful
chief executive slipped away from
a legilsative tour of Milledgeville
State Hospital.
Where did he go? He went to
nearby State Training School for
Boys and delivered an unsched
l uled, impromptu, inspirational ad
dress to the 300-odd juvenile de
linquents confined at the institu
tion.
It was the first time that a Geor
gia governor had ever addressed
the youthful offenders, according
to William Ireland, director of
the school, who has been asso
ciated with the institution for
more than 40 years.
