WALLACE BELL

   Wallace Bell, member of City Council of Athens, Georgia, from the Fifth ward,
was born at Cleveland, Georgia, June 5, 1888. Mr. Bell came to Athens when he
was only 15 years of age, and has been connected with various business
enterprises since that time, meeting with much success. He has been active in
civic affairs, and when the General Assembly of the State of Georgia passed an
act at its 1922 session incorporating a large area of the western extremity of
the city into the city limits and the mayor and council passed an ordinance
designating this new area as the Fifth ward, providing for its representation on
the council, Mr. Bell, at the solicitation of his friends, entered the race and
won out over his opponent as alderman.

   He is chairman of several important committees from council, and is a member
of others, and is devoting his time, talents and energy to the protection and
advancement of the city's interests, and those of his constituents in the Fifth
ward.
