Cfjc leatljer nb Not just another leather shop 1127 Moro 539-0566 Carter ever seriously considered her. Before she strode to the podium, the delegates were shown a film in which they heard her words on the night the House Judiciary Committee, of vwhich she is a member, voted the first impeachment articles against Richard M. Nixon. But onthis night she eschewed any direct attacks on the Republican opposition. Instead, she warned that the nation was in danger of becoming "a collection of interest groups, each seeking to fulfill private dreams.

"We are a people in a quandary about the present. We are a people in search of our future. We are a people in search of a national community. "We must provide the people with a vision of the future' that is attainable. We must strike a balance between the idea that the government can do everything and the 'belief that the government should do nothing," she 37th convention of Democrats, and it was thunderously clear it felt the same about her, The lady simply stole the show, wresting the hearts and hurrahs of opening night from the likes of the host mayor and governor, and even fellow keynoter John Glenn whose performance, by contrast, hardly seemed calculated to enhance his previously touted chances for becoming Jimmy Carter's running mate.

Neither Glenn nor anyone else evoked the rapt attention or the raucous tribute that the convention bestowed upon this organ-voiced black congresswoman from Houston.

She was greeted with a standing ovation that eclipsed two minutes.

Just as notably, the delegates ceased the milling and the drone which had faced other speakers. Now, the noise they made, cheers, applause and even some foot-stomping, was solely for Barbara Jordan. When she finished, she was called back to the podium by an ovation that continued despite her exit. A security guard and others on the podium asked her for her autograph. "We want Barbara, Barbara," the crowd chanted.

Even during her address, a hastily written sign had been hoisted in the South Carolina delegation: "Jordan VP." Some had suggested that possibility even earlier, but Miss Jordan had said she didn't think Blood donors The Red Cross today requested Riley County residents to donate blood to insure an adequate supply to local hospitals.

The bloodmobile will be at the College Avenue Methodist Church, 1609 College south of St. Mary Hospital. A free nursery for small children accompanying donors will be available on Monday. Mrs. Crane, chairman of the drive, said the county's quota of 150 pints a day during the two-day drive is needed to meet the increasing heeds of Riley County patients.

She noted that the county is presently using more blood than it collects. Mrs. Crane explained that any healthy person between the ages of 18 and 66 may donate blood every eight weeks may donate blood with parental permission). Births St. Mary Hospital Mr.
