Under a sign exhorting "Stand Up for America," Wallace mounted a rostrum at the Pittsburgh Hilton to address his first Northern audience since announcing for the presidency.

Even the presence of Lyndon Johnson at St. Patrick's Cathedral for Cardinal Spellman's funeral failed to unite them: protesters halfheartedly staked out the midtown cathedral, but soon dispersed. At Battery Park, moderates and militants clashed in a shoving match during a violent argument over whether to march on city hall...
...Greenwood to show their faces on TV. Last week's was Urban League Director Whitney Young; before that the program offered Bayard Rustin, Senators Charles Percy and Wayne Morse, Billy Graham and Walter Heller.
