    Pages 2 and 3 are taken up by an article, "Greetings . . ." by Ken Ruscio and Reed Morgan. There are three photographs from past mock conventions.

    Pages 6 and 7 are "Part II: Three Years of Preparation." The article is accompanied by three photographs: "1964 W&L keynoter Dr. Walter Judd served as keynoter for the actual Republican Convention in 1960;" "Harry Truman, 'Mr. Democrat,' gave the delegates a rousing welcome in 1960;" and "Citizen Nixon spoke on the W&L campus three months before receiving the nomination in 1968."
     
    Pages 8 and 9 are "Part III: A Question of Values." There are four photographs from previous mock conventions.
