Convention keeps Wallace option open amid platform clashes

Delegates rejected Wallace proposals on foreign aid and other issues and narrowly defeated welfare and abortion planks. The session ran past 1:17 p.m. with votes extending into the night as officials contended over platform language and adjournment motions.
