THE PRESIDENT: Delighted to have
them present.
The Chair recognizes Delegate Johnson
for the purpose of making an announce-
ment.
DELEGATE JOHNSON: Mr. President
and fellow delegates, I rise to a point of
personal privilege. Despite the devastating
defeat of the Minority Report of the Ju-
dicial Branch Committee last week, I am
proud to say at least one of our members
stayed in there and kept on pitching over
the long weekend we just enjoyed.
I am very pleased to have the honor to
announce the single victory of Delegate
Susan Kahl, who moved one step closer to
the envied position of housewife, by re-
cently becoming engaged to be married to
Mr. Thomas Phoebus of the Baltimore
Orioles, the 1967 American League Rookie
Pitcher of the Year.
I am certain that you will be happy to
join me in wishing this fine couple every
happiness.
(Applause.)
THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Johnson.
DELEGATE JOHNSON: Mr. President
and ladies and gentlemen, I feel that we
have not lost a delegate but gained a
twenty-game winner.
THE PRESIDENT: The Chair wishes
to recognize the presence of 154 students
from Kensington Junior High School in
Montgomery County. Delighted to have
them with us also.
(Applause.)
The Chair recognizes Delegate Burdette
for the purpose of making an announce-
ment.
DELEGATE BURDETTE: Mr. Presi-
dent, under the heading of personal privi-
lege, I should like to call the attention to
the Convention to the birthday today of a
distinguished delegate from Baltimore
County, Dr. Clinton I. Winslow who has
been for forty years an eminent professor
in this state. He is an alumnus, among
other schools, of the University of Ne-
braska.
When I was a student there more than
thirty years ago, his name was already
legendary for scholarship and for integrity.
I have been studying his works and his
words for a third of a century, and I
should like to have the privilege, Mr. Presi-
|
dent, of asking the Convention to join on
this birthday in tribute to Dr. Winslow's
long and continuing service to our state
and country.
(Applause.)
THE PRESIDENT: For what purpose
does Delegate Bard rise?
DELEGATE BARD: I would like to rise
on the question of personal privilege, Mr.
Chairman.
THE PRESIDENT: State your privi-
lege.
DELEGATE BARD: First, I would like
to second the statement with regard to Dr.
Winslow and secondly, I would like to an-
nounce the presence of Mrs. Bard, who is
here today, because we had the privilege
of celebrating belatedly our wedding anni-
versary. We could not celebrate it on time
because of the Convention. She is present
today.
(Applause.)
THE PRESIDENT: The Chair recog-
nizes Delegate Powers, Chairman of the
Committee on Calendar and Agenda.
DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. President,
I move that today's calendar be amended
so as to include the resumption of consid-
eration of Committee Recommendation GP-
4, Consumer Protection, and as amended I
move the adoption of today's calendar.
THE PRESIDENT: Is there a second?
(Whereupon, the motion was duly sec-
onded.)
THE PRESIDENT: All those in favor
signify by saying Aye; contrary, No. The
Ayes have it. It is so ordered. The calendar
is adapted.
Are there any reports of other standing
committees?
(There was no response.)
THE PRESIDENT: Are there any mo-
tions or resolutions?
(There was no response.)
THE PRESIDENT: There has been dis-
tributed today a memorandum to accompany
Delegate Proposal No. 433 by Delegate
Finch.
The Chair recognizes Delegate Powers.
DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. President,
I move the Convention resolve itself into
