It appears to have been a busy program.  There was an interview with A. Bertram Chandler at 12:00 on the Saturday, Guest of honor speeches and book signings on three of the days.

 

Nikey Roessner-Herman reported in the November 1982 edition of Locus as follows.

 

Ross Pavlac presented A. Bertram Chandler, explaining that the convention committe had wanted to pay homage to those who were long established, with a large influence on others, but under -honored.

 

Chandler drew together the two threads of Chicago and science fiction, first with humerous anecdotes about his two brief former visits to the city and Chicago jokes, including one about a meat packing plant murder.  Then he traced the roots of sf and did a little projecting of its future.  He amused the audience by recounting ridiculous story plots he had run across during his own growth and exposure to the field.
