A Catholic and three other Atlantans will be honored by the National Conference of Christians and Jews for their outstanding commitment to the brotherhood of man under the fatherhood of God.

Each will receive the prestigious Brotherhood Award at the annual dinner of the NCCJ. This year's honorees are: Dr. Irving H. Goldstein, Mrs. George J. Gunning, the Honorable Maynard H. Jackson, and Dr. Philip R. Weltner.

Eight hundred Atlantans are expected to attend the Brotherhood Dinner, April 1, at the Regency Hyatt House Hotel to express their appreciation of the honorees. Reflecting the racial, sexual, economic, religious, and age diversities of the city, the 1971 Brotherhood Award recipients also embody the constructive bridges between all groups of Atlantans.
