Notes

Section SE-1 sent 149 delegates to the 1973 NOAC, chartering their own United Airlines DC-8 from Dulles Airport to Los Angeles. Before the conference the SE-1 contingent enjoyed a trip to Disneyland.

Special guests at the 1973 NOAC included OA co-founders E. Urner Goodman and Carroll A. Edson, as well as astronaut Richard Truly and Miss Teenage America, Melissa Galbraith. The final conference arena show was produced by former SE-1 Chief Tom Webb of Blue Heron Lodge and every performer and stagehand involved in the show was from SE-1.
