Left to right are Councilman Charles E. Keegan, tapped for Controller; Assistant District Attorney Julius Helfand, seeking the Council Presidency designation; Mayor Impellitteri shaking hands with Brooklyn leader Kenneth Sutherland whose decisive vote made renomination possible; Borough President Cashmore, seeking re-election, and Special Sessions Justice Hyman Barshay, running for County Court." 0115 is very similar except it shows Mayor Impellitteri standing.
