Washington state standard came
bobbing to the front with Delaware

Idaho, and Texas Joined in. North

Here and there over the hall other
standards rocked and swayed as
struggles took place to get them in

chanted "Mac'll do" "Macll do" ov-

Throughout the hall gray haired men
and women began to sing, lured by
sarains that harked them back to
their days Of youth. A Jerseyite
seized the state standard and march

thing was contagious. Other old

Long forgotten words came back to

Palmer banners, Cox hatbands
and tokens of other candidates were
