At the convention hall itself, the party that has not infrequently blasted Big Business let out space for the "American Showcase" promotion display of big business. The 22 advertisers hoped their free-handout booths might be picked up by roving TV cameramen and flashed to 50 million viewers.

After Miss Lucy arrived, Tuscalcosa became an arena in which for almost a week reporters beat the bushes for stories, and television cameramen vied with each other for the most sensational shot of the day. One picture sold to a syndicate for $1,500. In this circus-like atmosphere, students were more than willing to perform, while even faculty members rarely hid from the bright lights of national publicity...
