Delegates Face Gate Tricks at Coliseum and Gains

The report describes guards being evaded at the Coliseum by attendees with forged or duplicate admission tickets. Doorkeeper John J. Hansen seized several individuals for attempting to pass with counterfeit or invalid badges. Two former aldermen were ejected, and the tickets bore the words Admission Only, matching regular tickets but lacking entrance details. Also noted are attempts by others to misuse tickets and discussions on omens regarding Taft’s nomination. California delegates Florence Porter and Travela Blaney shared their first voting experiences, with Porter voting for McGovern as temporary chairman and Blaney expressing historic pride. Hawaii’s unexpected support for McGovern emerged as a surprise in the temporary chairmanship vote, complicating Taft’s expected gains.
