Piedmont Park Site Indorsed For University High School
A strong endorsement for Piedmont park as the site for Atlanta’s University High School is voiced by W H Kriegshaber, incoming Atlanta Chamber of Commerce president, with support from Mell Wilkinson. Dr. Guinn, board of education president, argues the park use would not detract from recreation and would expand access. The piece notes local opinion favors a central, near-downtown site and discusses opposition to any site, urging citizens to focus on the best overall outcome for Atlanta’s youth.
