A RESOLUTION NAMING A CZAR OF GOLF OF THE LITTLE
ROCK MUNICIPAL GOLF COURSES; PRESCRIBING HIS
AUTHORITY; WISHING HIM WELL; DECLARING AN EMERGENCY;
AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES
WHEREAS, the relatively unknown and seldom revealed talents
of that noted and acclaimed journalist, James H. "Jimmy" Jones ,
Jr. , in the game of golf should be shared by all golf enthusiasts
of this City; and
WHEREAS, the said Jimmy Jones in his typically gracious
manner and attitude has agreed to accept the appointment as Czar
of Golf of all golf courses in the City of Little Rock recognizing
that such appointment carries with it no pay, tenure nor enforce-
able authority; and
WHEREAS, as a condition to the appointment, the said Jimmy
Jones has pledged that any and all meetings held by him in the
carrying out of his responsibilities hereunder shall be open
meetings conducted in keeping with the Freedom of Information
laws of the State of Arkansas and that all journalists need have
no fear that they must look to the legislature in order to pro-
vide the public with the information emanating from such meetings
and conferences; and
WHEREAS, it is the desire of the City, concurred in by the
said Jimmy Jones, that the golf courses herein mentioned should
be and can be improved and that he will give his time, energies
and talents in an advisory capacity motivated and designed to
accomplish this desired end, for he is confident that some duffers
can accomplish as much in a variety of ways with a one iron on a
well maintained golf course as some professionals do with a full
set of clubs on an unmaintained course.

THE CITY OF LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS.
SECTION 1. James H. "Jimmy" Jones , Jr. , of the journalism
