The atmosphere of 1979's Convention and expectation charged the air of the auditorium, with a certain amount of impatience to get going. Bedecked with political garnish of lights and other gaudy things the auditorium presented a pompous was one of political chaos. High tension streamers, balloons, ivy, gigantic posters, appearance of officiality. Dressed in the crazy garb of the day, delegates scrambled about their assigned rows, while section chiefs and floor officials did their best to establish a semblance of order. Drum rolls sounded as Chairman Chuck McGlashan made his flamboyant entrance. At 8:15 President McGlashan rapped for order and officially opened the 1979 Nominating Convention. ,X-4 ,,1. . ,J 1.

Section Chief As offices went up for ballot, candidates presented their demonstrations amid confetti and screams of enthusiasm from the delegates. Speeches were often-times not understood due to a touchy sound- system, yet the delegates expressed their appreciation of the effort loudly. Voting became a chore when simple majorities were not reached by the delegations, and frustration was evident among the candidates and officials as well as the voters. Because of the drawn-out voting periods, the day began a long boring stretch. Mid-afternoon brought a three-hour voting period for a first position on the ballot, and an additional hour to decide the second positon. Delegate sections began to shrink in size as the hours accumulated, which did make voting much easier. The exhausting day finally came to an end at mid-evening, welcomed by the much reduced convention audience with an exuberant round of cheers. , ff:'2f tf'5f ,573 if .1 M Julie Cook consults with Sam Peterson, a cop. 5.
