Creator: |
Preston, J. B. |
|
|
Dates: |
1946-1966 |
|
|
Contents: |
The collection chiefly consists of bound volumes of Preston's correspondence and various reports relating to the development
of the post-war tobacco industry in Georgia. Reports and correspondence have often been intermingled within a bound volume.
Because the collection reflects daily activities so thoroughly, it provides a unique view of the operations of Mr. Preston's
office during an important phase in agricultural modernization in the state. Through its pages one can see how the agricultural
work of the Coastal Plain Experiment Station, as documented in the book The UGA Coastal Plain Experiment Station...The First
75 Years by Max Bass, was carried to practicing farmers and the tobacco industry.

Creator: |
Rogers, Jonathan Clark |
|
|
Dates: |
1938-1967 |
|
|
Contents: |
The collection consists of Jonathan Clark Rogers' papers. There are nine boxes of Administrative Subject and Correspondence
Files arranged in alphabetical order and embracing chiefly the years of Rogers' Presidential tenancy, though there are records
from as early as 1938 and as late as 1955. There is also a document box which houses a scrapbook of appreciation and a second
clipping and photo scrapbook encompassing the years 1949-1967. Finally, an 11th box has been appended to the Rogers papers.
This box, dealing with the Atlanta Division of the University of Georgia (today, Georgia State University), embraces records
from 1947 through 1956, though the heart of the material again locates temporally in the tenure of Rogers as the President
of the University of Georgia. This box may house materials of interest to researchers of the presidential tenures of Harmon
W. Caldwell and Omer C. Aderhold as well.

Title: |
Harmon Caldwell papers
|
Requires cookie* |
|
Creator: |
Caldwell, Harmon White |
|
|
Dates: |
1916-1991 |
|
|
Contents: |
The collection consists of correspondence, financial papers, photographs, speeches and writings, and printed material arranged
in alphabetical order by name or subject. Although the bulk of the material concerns Caldwell's career, some are paersonal
and family papers and consist of correspondence with his parents, his brother Alvin, and various aunts, uncles and cousins,
including Hattie Dunlop who apparently suffered from paranoia. The farm papers deal with a house and land in Meriwether County
that had been in the Caldwell family for many years. Caldwell took it over in 1940, made many improvements, and considered
it his legal residence. Boxes 48-50 contain Caldwell's personal financial papers.
Of special interest are the Board of Regents papers; Walter Cocking controversy, Ty Cobb and the Cobb Educational Foundation;
Berry College papers; the Wallace Butts football scandal; and the papers of the colleges and universities in the University
System of Georgia with their various achievements or problems. Correspondents include Omer Clyde Aderhold, Walter Blackstock,
Callaway family (Pine Mountain, Ga.), Lamar Dodd, Stewart Gelders, Hodgson family (Athens, Ga.), Joseph Winthrop Holley, John
Alton Hosch, Lucy Stanley MacArthur, Moina Michael, Jonathan Clark Rogers, Steadman Vincent Sanford, Hughes Spalding, and
Herman Talmadge.
