in this sunbaked city to fire the
opening gun in the battle to drive
into political oblivion the hypo-
critical "demo-new deal-crats."
From an early hour Saturday,
until the gavel sounded opening
the convention at 1920 Sunday
morning, there was a continuous
line of young Republican dele
gates from the 1O2 counties in
Illinois registering at the Jeffer-
son hotel, the headquarters for
the convention.
The convention was called to
order by the temporary chairman
and keynoter, Frank Turner of
Chicago after which the regular
convention routine was followed.
The Race youth played an i'm
portant part in shaping the call of
the convention, as we'll as in the
convention proper. Alderman Ed
