One other announcement of interest to the
Convention, I think, is that I have granted a brief
leave of absence to the Sergeant at Arms, Richard Rothenberg,
and in his absence have designated Edward Smith, a member
of the staff, professional staff of the Convention, as
Assistant Sergeant at Arms. The leave of absence is
granted at the request of Sergeant at Arms Rothenberg to
enable him to be married tomorrow. (Applause.) He will
return to his usual occupation Tuesday. He said a
long weekend would suffice for the moment. (Laughter.)
Are there any delegates present now who were
absent at roll call who desire to indicate their presence?
If not, are there any announcements from committee chairmen?
Sorry. Delegate Gleason.
DELEGATE GLEASON: I would like to have my
presence acknowledged, please, sir.
THE PRESIDENT: Any other delegates absent
at roll call who desire to indicate their presence?
Delegate Kiefer.
DELEGATE KIEFER: Mr. President, the Committee
on Personal Rights and the Preamble will meet 15 minutes |
