Francisco Cow Palace where

But it won't be for lack of
trying on the part Of jealous

these and other similarly pre-
posterous suggestions to Mrs.
Charles w. Weis. jr.. chairman
Of q special subcommittee on
program planning for the big

The subcommittee tsome-

modernise the next conven-
tion. with q particular view
to making 1t more attractive

Mrs. Weis would like to
