city ordinance requiring all milk
sold in the city to be pasteurized.
Under was one OF the most
vociferous supporters of the in
junction which was granted to
Frank H. Nicely, a wealthy AT
lanta department store executive.
Nicely believed Atlantans, includ-
ing himself, shouldn't have to buy
pasteurized milk if they preferred
raw milk.
Neely's suit resulted in the in
junction and in Linder's blast at

stood off in a neutral corner and

man of the board, explained, II

The surface of a glacier is like

cracks in the ice mass to open,

as a piedmont glacier. Many of
the Alaskan glaciers are of this
type. Lastly, we have the great
