THE PRESIDENT: My attention has
been called to an error in printing in that
the second page of Delegate Proposal No.
352 on the printed copy is not printed on
the reverse of page one but instead was
printed on the reverse of page one of the
memorandum accompanying Delegate Pro-
posal No. 352. If you will leave them in
your books, the pages will substitute cor-
rected copies before the session tomorrow.
Are there any further announcements?
(There was no response.)
If not, the Chair recognizes Delegate
Powers.
Before that, are there any delegates pres-
ent now who were not present at roll call
desire to record their presence?
The Chair recognizes Delegate Powers.
DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. President,
I move we adjourn until 2:00 P.M. to-
morrow.
THE PRESIDENT: All those in favor,
signify by saying Aye; contrary, No. The
Ayes have it. It is so ordered.
(Whereupon, at 2:30 P.M. the Convention
was adjourned to reconvene at 2:00 P.M. on
Thursday, October 12, 1967.)

THE PRESIDENT: Roll call. |

I move adoption of the daily calendar and
agenda.

DELEGATE SCANLAN: Mr. President,
I informed the Convention yesterday that
the sponsor of Resolution No. 1I had with-

Resolution No. 1I and he wishes a vote on
his resolution. Therefore, I move that we
amend today's calendar by including as an
item of business the committee's unfavor-

to the motion?
(The motion was duly seconded.)
THE PRESIDENT: Is there any discus-

All those in favor of the amendment,
signify by saying Aye; contrary, No. The
Ayes have it. It is so ordered. All those
in favor of approving the calendar as
amended, signify by saying Aye; contrary,
No. The Ayes have it. It is so ordered.
Calendar as amended is approved.
Before we come to the next item of busi-
ness on the calendar, or I should say item
of pleasure, I would like to take this op-
portunity to inform the Convention that
this is a red letter day for a delegate to
the Convention and for at least three mem-
bers of the staff of the Convention, because
today is the day when the results of the
bar examination, which concluded on July
11, were announced.
It gives me great pleasure to advise you
