This afternoon we received over the short-wave set about the last half of the fourth session of general conference. Reception was good. What a glorious experience to hear the Brethren again. Among the voices we heard were those of Sterling W. Sill, Howard W. Hunter, A. Theodore Tuttle, David B. Haight, and Joseph Fielding Smith, who was concluding the session. After having expressed gratitude and announced the closing hymn and prayer, President Smith closed the meeting by saying, “This general session of the conference will stand adjourned until 10:00 tomorrow morning.” Followed by a pause, he continued, “I think it’s going to be in the Tabernacle.” Everyone cracked up on that one. He added, “Yes, that’s right, it will be in the Tabernacle.”
Tonight’s MIA was a really enjoyable and uplifting experience. Elder Smith’s lesson on sportsmanship was sharp and everybody participated. The activity was a new one that everybody enjoyed without goofing off or causing headaches for anyone. This afternoon we played volleyball again. An added attraction beginning this week is ping-pong.
Elder Hendrickson and I finished up the big chart all day yesterday and this morning. We even tracted this week.
