While the resolutions of the convention were being read, came a dramatic pause. The resolutions chairman yielded his manuscript to burly, bull-voiced Frank McHale, original McNutt-for-President man, now Indiana's National Democratic Committeeman. Sonorously Mr. McHale intoned: "Paul V. McNutt has never failed his community, his State or his country. With him as the nominee for President of the United States our party can proceed with full consciousness that every promise will be kept, that each platform declaration will be respected and that the best interests of the people will be served.

...Boarding the President's train like scores of other Congressmen, Representative Maury Maverick of San Antonio, unlike scores of other Congressmen, frankly gave his reason for doing so: "I like the President, and he likes me, and I want something."

Last week at Shawnee, 30-year-old Paul Runyan lived up to his reputation. First he eliminated Levi Lynch. Then he put out Tony Manero, Ray Mangrum, Horton Smith and Henry Picard, four of the game's master shotmakers.

Sam Snead of White Sulphur Springs had reached the final 23 strokes under par (for 165 holes), and was 2-to-1 favorite...
...Lightweight Paul Runyan, whose tee shots carry no further than the average week-end golfer's, played the sort of game that breaks an opponent's spirit. Although outdriving him 40 to 50 yards on each hole, Snead watched his advantage melt around the greens where Runyan's game was hotter than the noonday sun. At the end of the morning round, Titan Snead was ready to throw his clubs in the nearby Delaware. He had not succeeded in winning a hole. Runyan was 5 up, had been leading ever since the third hole...
