Y., for Georgia State Rep. C. O, (Fats) Baker (right). The chair, which will cost Georgia $400, was or- dered after Baker's colleagues took pity on him after he got tired of trying to squeeze his “over 300 pounds” into regulation sized chairs. Seated with Baker in right photo is Rep. Alex Boone of LOUISA’S LETTER | Dear Louisa: Irwinton, Ga.
