- Well Mr. Higdon you failed to check your facts on that one.
-
- For years GTE has supplied its people to work with the LA Raiders on
- its Food Day game. Each year well over 500 GTE people are at the GTE
- sponsered GTE West Golf Classic which is used to support a shelter for
- battered wives. It sponsers Public TV programs and many other local
- community events in its service areas. If you were to contact your
- area public affairs office they could tell you more.
-
- We were also involved with over 1000 volunteers in the 1984 Olympics
- in LA. We were at the Super Bowl in Pasadena and will be there again
- for public service. 'GTE People' is not very well known. It is the
- volunteer group over 1500 strong within the company volunteering when
- needed. Maybe we should blow our horns more often, but we are more
- interested in just doing our community service and not caring if
- anyone really knows about it since we do and that is all that really
- counts.
