Banners, Slogans Add To Color As Convention Fever Grips Demos
Chicago U.P) Democrats
poured into this windy mecca-on-the-lake
Saturday, and the
convention pot was all a-simmer
White cardboard donkeys
marched prick-eared in, a glad
some frieze around the marble
exterior of the Conrad Hilton
Hotel, just above the plateglass
fim-floor windows.
Silver footprints led across
red carpet in Adlai Stevenson's
headquarters toward a booth
where steading silver shoe-sole
lapel pins (with a hole in mid-
sole) were on .sale at a dollar a
throw.
Out at convention hall the
flies from the stockyards whir
' red nervously through the sound-
charged air as the organist Wast
ed his way through a practice
round of "Stars and Stripes For
ever." The teleprompter people,
grown richer and wiser since
they unscrolled speech tests on
a tiny screen before 1952 con-
Lakeyiew Mining
Firm Moves Eight
Cars of Uranium
' Lakeview UR) The Lake
view Mining Co. made its sec
ond shipment of uranium to the
Vitro Chemical Co. of Salt Lake
City last week. It was the com
pany's first shipment since three
carloads were sent- out Oct. 3,
1955.
Jim Polous, general manager
of the mining company, said the
shipment contained approximate
ly 40 tons and was carried
eight Southern Pacific cars.
The mining frim is owned by
the Thornburg Brothers of Col
orado Springs. Colo. All ore was
from the Lucky Lass mine. The
previous shipment was from both
the Lucky Lass and White King
mines.
Maps in Windows
Meanwhile, aerial maps show
ing anomalous areas which
may contain uranium ore were
"to be posted in windows of the
mining company office here.
Dr. Garth Thornburg said "ap
pearance of anomaly designation
on the map does not necessarily
mean that ore grade radioactive
material is present. It means sur
vey instruments in aircraft have
reacted more strongly above
those areas."
Thornburg commented that so
far as he knows it was the first
time that a private company had
issued such information to the
public without charge.
vention orators, were busy
.necking the "color tempera
lure" of each 1956 speaker's
face. As each spellbinder mounts
the podium, a magic light panel
on the lectern will automatical
ly dim or brighten to put his
political puss in the best light.
Battle Lines of Slogans
New York "Teen-agers for
Stevenson" trotted out a wild
new bebop-type slogan in behalf
of their man: "Madly for Adlai."
The opposition camp retali
ated, rather weakly (but give
'em time), with: "Harriman is
the man." They may catch up in
the slogan department but they
are going to have to go some to
draw abreast of Stevenson in
the lady-fair rieoartment.
"Adlai girls," beautiful and
gracious, roamed the Hilton.
They wore blue dresses and
brown straw boater hats with
blue "Adlai" bands and carried
parasols which shouted "Steven
son." They handed out pins, but
tons, and match folders, all
gaudy with propaganda.
The blue of their dresses re
flected the color scheme of the
entire convention. The big live
stock amphitheatre has been
dressed in a symphony of blues,
a color suggestive of cool in the
heat of August and, more impor
tant, a shade that comes through
just charming on TV.
Cool is an apt word for the
set-up in convention hall. Air
conditioning and stagecraft have
a priority. No longer will hon
est sweat roll off the brow of a
het-up speaker. An air condi
tioner built into the lectern will
squirt a jet of dehumidified oz
one into his fevered face.
Vents on either side of this
main one .can be adjusted to de
liver cold air onto his feet, limbs,
or midriff.
Directly in front of him, on the !
right and the left, mirrors will j
reflect :ip to him the text of his
address, unfolding on two tele-1
prompters like the slotted notes j
that flow from the unwinding
scroll of a player piano.
He must lower his eyes slight
ly to see the mirrors, and when
such occurs he may look demure
but actually will be searching
for his next sentence.

Big Butte Springs
Gets New Facilities
Big Butte Springs pipe line
No. 2, constructed in 1950-51, has
had additional intake facilities
installed, and was tested at full
capacity for the first time last
week by city crews, according
to Robert Lee, water superin
tendent. Lee said the pipe line was not
designed with enough intake fa
' cilities to operate at full capa
city. Additional intake facilities
were installed earlier this year,
Lee added, and both pipe lines
1 and 2 can now operate at full
capacity.
Pipe line 2 was designed to
carry about 13 million gallons
1 per day. Lee said that during
yesterday's testing it operated
near a flow of 13 -i million gal-
Jons. With both pipe pines oper
ating at full capacity, Lee said,
the city can be supplied with
about 26 million gallons per day.
. He commented that for two or
three days Medford water will
have a "milkish" look. He said
this is caused by air in the water
from the change of flow in the
pipe line while testing yester
day. It will work itself out soon,
he said.
