Ingestion of a missing discourse (McKay's opening address warning of three dangers to youth — smoking, divorce, and immorality — First Day Morning Meeting) omitted from the earlier heavyweight pass over this conference. Rebuilt page reading order from conferencereport1964a's DjVu XML word-coordinate data (scripts/ingest/cr-reading-order.py); the scan itself annotates this address '(Pres. McKay gives Opening Address)'. Confirmed this is a genuine discourse (not a running head) by tracing every 'PRESIDENT DAVID O. McKAY' occurrence across the volume, several of which were misOCR'd running heads over Hugh B. Brown's own talk and were correctly excluded. De-hyphenated and reflowed against the scan text. Renumbered talk_order within this session to seat this address first, shifting the existing Tuttle/Sill/Petersen talks to talk_order 2/3/4. Matches the session/talk_order schema already in use across this conference's other files, and the 1956-10/1957-04/1958-04/1958-10/1959-04/1959-10/1961-04/1961-10/1962-04/1962-10/1963-04/1963-10/1969-10 precedent for reinserting missing McKay discourses generally.
