.Ke's Visits
Make Small
Change In City
BY MERCER BAILEY

AUGUSTA, Ga. R-President Ell
senhower's choice of Augusta for
his White House vacations has
made few changes in this crowded
boom town.
The curious gather at the air
port and along some of the streets
when the President flies down for
a few days of golf at the Augusta
National Golf Club. The newsmen
who fly in with him report all they
can learn of his activities, whether
it's a major statement or appoint
ment or his score for a round of
golf.
But, by and large, the Presi-
dents visits are taken in stride
by official Augusta and its over
flowing population. There are three
major reasons:
1. The expressed purpose of his
visits is golf-plus some relaxa-
ton from presidential duties.
2. The Augusta National is a
private retreat, catering exclusive
ly to its approximately 200 mem
berS.
5. Augusta already has its hands
full with the influx of population
from the Savannah River plant
the Atomic Energy Commission is
building a few miles away in South
Carolina.
Not even Reid Memorial Pres
byterian Church, where the Presi-
dent and first lady worship during
their visits, has experienced any
great effect.
