This press release was designated for release on Sunday morning, presumably the day before the 1956 Mock Convention was set to begin. It seems to be three pieces of text designed to accompany photos of the raising of the banner at the Headquarters of the Virginia delegation, the student "Secret Service" agents checking the parade route to ensure the safety of keynote speaker Alben W. Barkley, and students preparing a banner for Adlai Stevenson.
