PLENARY SESSION
DECEMBER 1, 1967—10:33 P.M.
PRESIDENT H. VERNON ENEY,
PRESIDING
THE PRESIDENT: The Convention will
please come to order.

On behalf of the Committee of the Whole,
the Chair reports that it has under consid-
eration LB-2, and that it still has it un-
der consideration, and that it desires leave
to sit again.
The Chair has an announcement to make
which you may find of interest. It indicates
that there is something contagious about
the work of this Convention.
One blond young man that you have seen
walking about the floor today serving as
a page had no idea that he would do so
when he arrived in Annapolis this morning.
He came to visit the Naval Academy. He
had some idea of preparing to take some
tests with the hope of entering the Acad-
emy.
When he finished his inquiries, he was
told a Convention was in session. He came
over to look, he saw, he observed, he was
conquered and was put to work.
I think we owe a round of applause to
Eric Johnson of Phoenix, Arizona.
(Applause.)
Are there any announcements by commit-
tee chairmen?
Delegate Morgan.
DELEGATE MORGAN: I just again
wanted to say the Committee on the Ex-
ecutive Branch will meet tomorrow morn-
ing at 9:00 A.M. to consider the attorney
general amendment.
THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Weide-
meyer.
DELEGATE WEIDEMEYER: Mr.
President and delegates of the Convention,
I thought I detected when Delegate Morgan
left the rostrum this morning a little air
of relief, but during the afternoon I thought
his countenance changed to one of extreme
sadness and I know we have rules, but if
that sad look keeps on for the next few
days, possibly the Chair could consider
amendment of the rules whereby we could
reconsider EB-1 and give him two or three
more days of practice in talking to us.
I hope he cheers up but if he keeps on
that sad look, I hope something can be done.
THE PRESIDENT: Are there any other
announcements ?
Delegate Lord.
DELEGATE LORD: Mr. Chairman, an-
other substitute page who has done an ex-
cellent job here today is Ellen Linton, the
daughter of Sam Linton. I would like to
