CHICAGO. July "a. - Adlai
Stevenson is the Governor Of Illi-
nois anu may be the Democratic
nominee and the next President
of the United States. but his 16-
year-old son, John Fell, couldn't
get into the convention hall last
night.
The name that was magic in the
ampitheatre Monday and looms
more prominently each day. failed
to get the youngest Stevenson lad
into the hall along with his older
brother Borden and four school
chums. Each had the necessary
badge required but only five had
tickets.
Despite the fact that all the
people milling around identified
the two brothers as the sons of
the Governor of Illinois-and they
are easily recognized from their
pictures-the hardboiled officer at
Gate Z refused to let them pass.
Finally. some one with the
proper authority inside the hall
was sent for and the boys were
able to get into the scene where
their father may be nominated for
the Presidency of the United
States.
