Mr. G. H. Palmes, former City Manager, was present=and presented the following
letter:
G. H. PALMES
Engineering & Management Consultant
The Hon. Mayor, Council and Staff
City of Ft. Collins, Colo.
Gentlemen:
All that is necessary for outsider agitators to take over and ruin Ft, Collins
"Greatest and most up to date Institution" is for faculty members, public safety employees
and citizens to sit around andplay the dove for a few weeks while the boomers, floaters
and organized hoodlums take over, destroy and disrupt the educational facilities available
for the great majority of our Tung people in the State of Colorado. Our University held
a top place in this field in Colorado. Eastern industrialists are closely watching the
outcome of this insurrection.
During the past five years I have visited most of the Ivy League Universities
and such other Universities as Cornell, Syracuse, University of Michigan, Wisconsin,
Rutgers, Rensselear, Stanford, Memphis State and Baylor University Medical Labaatory.
It is my opinion that our Colo. State University matches or exceeds any of these
named Universities in buildings, grounds and equipment for all around educational pur-
poses.
I compliment our City officials for taking steps to further protect the Univer-
sity and our City from minority group unlawful activities.
Sincerely,
/s/ G. H. Palmes
