IUB.IECT:
Your approval is requested of the following report for presentation to the
Executive Committee.
Construction - World's Fair Contracts and Design
The contractor for electric cable and substations, Eastern States Electric,
now bas made substantial progress in installing the 4160 volt cables and also the
first 5000 KV A transformer and switchgear. Throughout May he was restricted
in the areas in which he could work, due to slow progress in releasing manholes
and completed conduit under other contracts, but this situation is now much
improved. It is still hoped that the electric distribution system can be actuated
by 25 July for contractors whose connections and meters have been prepared.
Detail information on electric metering has been distributed to exhibitors.
Substantial progress is now being made on the Security Building.
The chemical treatment of the waters of Meadow and Willow Lakes have shown
favorable results in reducing the amounts of algae without adverse effects on
the fish.
Water service to exhibitors for construction purposes should be
available by mid June and telephone service in the seoond half of June.
General.Motors is now already receiving telephone service at the construction
site.
. Planning and design have made considerable progress. However,
reductions in scope were necessary at the last minute in the critically important
lighting and low tension electric contract in order to bring it withln the budget,
and it has been held over for two weeks.
Exhibitors Design and Construction
Exhibitors' construction activities are increasing. Gas Incorporated is
driving piling for its foundation. General Motors has a substantial field
construction office nearing completion, has driven some steel test piles and bas
a substantial excavation prqject on the way. The General Electric site has been
graded and both Ford and A. T. & T. have contractors on the job. Twenty-two
other exhibitors have completed soils investigations at their sites and 35 have
submitted plans for review. Thirty have so far announced intention to start
construction in 1962. A revised schedule of exhibitors construction starts is
attached.

SPLICING OF PILES
DATE: JUNE 8, 1962
An unforeseen development has presented itself in that
IBaRf ef the exhibitors' contractors are splicing unreasonable
numbers of piles, creating a potential unsafe condition. In order
to avoid possible building failures, I recommend that we make
the addition to our Rules & Regulations to cover this (J1.
cond1non:
"Splicing of piles. --Splices shall be avoided as far as
practicable. Where used, splices shall be such that
the resultant vertical and lateral loads at the splices
are adequately transmitted. Splices shall be so constr
ted as to provide and maintain true aligmnent and position
of the component parts of the pile during installation and
subsequent thereto. Except for piles which can be visually
inspected after driving, splices shall develop not less than
fifty per cent of the value of the pile in bending. Proper
consideration shall be given to the design of splices at
sections of piles which may be subject to tension or to
bending.
"In any event the Fair Corporation will have to approve
upon the method of splicing and in no case will more
than one splice per pile cap be allowed."

Five Maintenance Buildings
Final Plans and Specifications will be ready for ad'lertising for
open bidding on June 1, 1962 for the five World's Fair
Maintenance Buildings.
The Architect's estimate for the preliminary submission was
$780,000. As approved by you under date of March 19th, the
design criteria was changed to eliminate pilings where possible
and to consider pre-fabricated alternates. Based on these
changes the Architect's estimate for the basic design is $646, 554.
and based on the pre-fabricated alternates it is $562, 247. Both
estimates for the final design are under the World
1
s Fair budget
allowance of $658, 000. ,
It is proposed that we advertise immediately on the basis of the
Final Plans requesting prices on the basic design and pre-fabricated
alternates.
Your approval is recommended.

TO: MR. MOSES DATE:

I"RON: John V. Thornton

SUBJECT:
Attached, for your consideration, is a proposed agreement of
modification of lease amending the lease between the City and the Fair
Corporation, covering the Flushing Airport parking site, dated June 1,
1961.
The proposed agreement modifies the boundaries of the premises
previously leased by the City to the Fair Corporation, in that the portion
of the premises which were previously used by the operators of the
Flushing Airport for an auxiliary runway are now to be excluded from
the Fair Corporation's leased premises, and City amed lands of
approximately equal area and convenience substituted therefor. In
addition to the substituted land, two small privately owned parcels are
being tentatively included in the new leased premises. The City is in
the process of acquiring title to these two small parcels, and they will
become part of the demised premises as soon as title is acquired by the
City.
Our consultants, Andrews & Clark, prepared the technical descriptions
and map included in the proposed agreement.
The modified agreement will expressly give the right to have an
automotive service station erected on the premises and to have gasoline and
other petroleum products sold on the premises. The present lease would
require further permission from the City before such activities were undertaken.
This draft agreement has been coordinated with Andrews & Clark,
Mr .. Constable, General Whipple, lv1r. Witt and our consultants.
Mr. Preusse has discussed it with Commissioner O'Keefe of the Real
Estate Department, and we have submitted copies of the proposed agreement
to Commissioner O'Keefe's office. His office is presently reviewing the
agreement. When agreement is reached between the Fair Corporation,
Commissioner O'Keefe and the Corporation Counsel, which should be in the
immediate future, the agreement will go before the Board of Estimate.
If you approve the draft of amended agreement, we recommend that
the Executive Committee authorize you to negotiate an agreement of
modification of lease with the City of New York in accordance with this
draft agreement, with such additions or modifications as may be approved
as to substance by you and to form ty us.

Status
The option on this pavilion expires on
June 13th. Agreement has been reached
with Mr. Thatcher, the President of
Transportation & Travel Pavilion, Inc.
to execute the lease document and to
proceed with definitive plans and
construction.
Messrs. Briggs and Crane, the developers
of the Marine Center, have begun a pro-
motional campaign to attract participants
in this multiple exhibit venture. This
campaign will continue throughout the
summer and will culminate in the Chicago
Boat Show scheduled for next September.
The American Rocket Society has declined
the sponsorship of this exhibit due to a
large extent on NASA's reluctance to
endorse the project, We are now in the
process of attempting to have several
major aerospace manufacturers combine
together on this project and are arrang
ing with a contractor for the construc-
tion of a building on a cost plus basis.
Of course, this exhibit depends in
large measure upon the content of the
Federal Pavilion. If the Federal
exhibit is centered upon the exploration
of space, there is quite obviously
little need for an independent space
exhibit. We must now await the appoint
ment of a Federal Commissioner in order
to determine the extent to which the
Federal Government will emphasize the
space story.

on the rental payment for an exhibit
within operating and main-

During this reporting period, the Mobile
Homes Association signed
its lease which was subsequently executed
by the Port Authority on behalf of the
Fair Corporation. We have forw11rded the
Association's check for $12,000 to
Mr. Vitt.
Firestone is the exclusive supplier of
original equipment tires to the Ford
Motor Company. This is the only remain
ing exclusive tire arrangement in the
auto industry. In view of this, Howard
Cullman will meet with Henry Ford II in
an attempt to have Mr. Ford use his good
offices on our behalf with Harvey Fire
stone.
The objections of General Motors have
caused Goodyear to abandon its efforts on
this project. Iu line with your instruc
tions, we will make no further efforts on
the Carveyor,
The Car 1 ing Brewing Company ha& turned
down the proposal to sponsor this new
form of transportation. We have there
fore turned the Carling account over to
Mr. Constable and Judge Rosenman to see
if they can work out something with this
firm in some other section of the Fair.
The of StaRRcar will hold
a series of meetings on June lOth and
in New York, in the hopes of
attracting a sponsor for the exhibit.

This group has been doing a conacientious job of soliciting
tenants for the building. They have spent over $100,000, in promotion and
sales personnel salaries. As of the present time they have options on
approximately 20'%. of the total rentable space in the building but no leases
have been signed since it is difficult to convince small exhibitors of this
type of the necessity for committing themselves at an early date.
Mr. Thatcher, the President of this Corporation and I are both
convinced that this Pavilion will become a success. Mr. Thatcher is
willing to execute the lease i.mnediately and begin final design plans with
a view to starting construction in October of this year. He however,
requested a schedule in rental payments in order to relieve him of the heavy
financial burdens before he can sign de'finitive sub-leases with tenants. I
am attaching a rental payment schedule which calla for the payment of an
additional $40,000 at sixty day intervals in 1962 and the payment of an
additional $397,000 in 1963. I have discussed this with Mr. Witt and he is
in accord with this schedule.
It is my recommendation that you approve this rental payment
schedule and we ..till proceed immediately with the execution of the final
lease.

INDUSTRIAL SECTION
STATUS OF ALL NEGOTIATIONS
(as of June 6, 1962)
.1. AMERICAN CAN CO, Meeting with H. H. Howry, Jr. (also Chrmn:
Shows & Exhibits Committee of Association of National Adver-
tisers) indicated company had turned down participation.
However, they will reconsider and plan a marketing committee
meeting at the Fair in early July. If they participate, it could
be with their own exhibit, in a multiple or in cooperation with
some other company. A concept is not the problem. It is the
decision to participate or not, and, if so, to what extent.
2. AMERICAN CARPET INSTITUTE. Meeting with Mr. Connett,
Publicity and Advertising Director of the Associated, indicated
interest. A $2,000,000 proposal was submitted to an a s s o c i ~
tion meeting. Subsequently, their Executive Committee turned
down the project {5/26/62).
3. AMERICAN CHICLE CO. Preliminary meeting with Mr. Harris
Vice President (Advertising) and Mr. Vandeburg (V. E. K.
Associates) has been held at which they presented children's
area concept to this company (originally offered to Beech-Nut).
Another meeting scheduled.
4. AMERICAN CYANAMID (Formica Division). Company policy is not
in terms of an integrated approach, but opportunity is left
open to the various divisions. The Formica Division is inte:r.-
ested in introducing a revolutionary, complete plastic house in
1984. They have been put in touch with McCall's Magazine
who are interested in furnishing and promoting this house.
Lot 1, block 5 (21, 774 sq. ft.) has been offered them. Inves-
tigation of costs, labor, etc. , is being pursued. This looks
hopeful.
5. AMERICAN ECONOMIC FOUNDATION. This foundation plans a
"Hall of Free Enterprise" on about 40-50,000 sq. ft. There
will be no identification of sponsorship. While given no
promises by the Fair other than that their idea is acceptable,
they are beginning a fund raising drive for $3, 000, 000 to
finance the project, the aim of which it is to tell the story of
"Americcm Economics. " According to the Foundation, their
response {6/4/62) has been encouraging.
Page4
6. AMERICAN IRON & STEEL INSTI'TUTE. On a visit to Pittsburgh,
there seemed hope this organization might still be interested
in an exhibit, notwithstanding previous discouraging reports.
On May 28, 1962 we were told there was no interest.
7. AMERICAN MACHINE & FOUNDRY. This company has been offered
an idea for an "Olympics of Bowling,
11
including competition
among foreign countl"ies, states and industries represented at
the Fair. No action has been taken since this was presented
to Mr. Moorehead Patterson, Chairman of the Board. The
matter now rests with Mr. Carter Burgess.
8. AVON PRODUCTS, INC. All early presentations resulted in refusals.
We are seeking to reopen this potential with a new concept for
an exhibit which will have to be inexpensive (May 16. 1962).
9. P. BALLANTINE & SON. Final drawings were prepared and pre-
sented by Donald Deskey AJ3so ciates on May 29, 1962. We
have as yet no final decision.
10. BEECH-NUT. This situation has been pending for over a year.
A $3,000,000 project for a children's area has been proposed.
The company is now studying the proposition in relation to the
cost factor. The idea has been presented to the Chairman of
the Board and the full Executive Committee. No change since
May 15, 1962.
11. JOHN H. BRECK, INC. May 24, 1962 visit to Mr. J. H. Breck, Jr.,
Executive Vice President, indicated participation ,at feasible
because of cost. Possible opening in the future if a three-way
joint pavilion could be arranged with Clairol and Ladies Home
Journal.
12. BURLINGTON INDUSTRIES. Preliminary investigation with J. S. Love,
J:r: (son of top man), indicated some interest. We are exploring
ideas for a proper representation of corporate image.
13. CAMPBELL SOUP CO. Negative reaction of Mr. William Murphy,
President, reported by Mr. Ken Jolly, Vice President and
Public Relations Director May 15, 1962. Ne},.i step is to get
to Mr. Murphy with a new and, at his request, inexpensive
exhibit idea.
14. CARNATION COMPANY. Visit with A. M. Chormley, President,
May 25, 1962 on west coast. A good prospect. Needs develop-
ment of exhibit ideas.
.!?age 5
15. CHAMPION PAPER & FIBRE CO. April 26, 1962 Ed Russell,
Executive Vice President, reported negative response.
16. CLAIROL DIVISION OF BRISTOL/MYERS. May 17, 1962 Jack Shor,
Corporate Public Relations Director, visited Fair. Company is
intarested if they can afford their own exhibit. If not, they may
want to combine (see Breck above) .
. 17. COLGATE-PALMOLIVE CO. Several meetings have been held recently
with this company against a background of earlier definite refusals.
There now seems to be a revival of interest. This company wants
an exhibit to describe Colgate's image - "cleanliness, modernity,
research." Money seems to be the problem. (May 11, 1962)
18. CORN PRODUCTS. May 15, 1962. This company reported having had
six or eight presentations made by designers costing $6 to
$8,000,000 which were far too expensive. The result is a
refusal unless they find a good, inexpensive exhibit i:lea.
19. DISTILLERS CORFORATION .. SEAGRAMS, INC. May 22, 1962
approach made through the Compton Agency and an appointment
made to see the Messrs. Broniman on June 5, 1962. The
advertising agency is enthusiastic about the New York
Restoration (1664) idea.
20. DOLE CO:EP ORATION. May 25, 1962 visit with Mr. H. C. Corneulle,
President, on the west coast. No immediate good prospects.
21. EQUITABLE IJFE. This company is seriously considering a special
exhibit to feature demography. A modest expenditure (probably
$400, 000} has informal approval from the president of the com-
pany. Details are being followed. This looks hopeful, but
still no change since May 15, 1962.
22. GENERAL CIGP.R. George B. Reichert, Advertising Director, indicated
some interest in a sports stadium. A follow-up is being made
through Mr. Cullman, via Mr. Miller Moore of Bankers Trust.
23. GENERAL MILLS CO. Call on General Edwin Rawlins, President,
with Mr. Motley on June 5, 1962. General Rawlins assigned
consideration of Fair participation to Mr. Crabtree, Public
Relations Director.
24. H. J. HEINZ CO. Ralph Johnson, Assistant to the President, reported
that Mr. Young of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, architect for this
company's office building, is ~ e y to this situation. There is
little interest :r.ow . but they did decide to go into Seattle Fair as
late as January 15, 1962. Matter is being reopened. Frank
Armour, President, also has been consulted.

Page6
26. HUNT FOODS & INDUSTRIES Visit with the Executive Vice President,
Arthur Wmston, on the west coast, May 24, 1962. No immediate
prospects. Needs development.
26. KOPPERS CO. Visit to Pittsburgh found interest by Koopers Co. based
on their recent business growth overseas. They indicated a desire
for an International Hospitality Center to be located in the Indus-
trial Area on the periphery of the International Area. This company
has agreed to call a meeting of their executive group in Pittsburgh.
A design is being prepared for them. No change since May 15, 1962.
27. LADIES HOME JOURNAL May 22, 1962 Kent Mitchell, Publisher,
agreed to assign a staff member to study possible participation
with Clairol (see above).
28. McCALL'S A. Edward Miller, Publisher, is interested in participating
with the Formica Division of American Cyanamid (see a">ove).
29. METROPOLITAN lJFE lliSURANCE CO. Last meeting on June 4, 1962.
After long negotiations it now appears that this is a refusal, unless
Mr. Ecker wishes to take it on himself to change the decision.
Several propositions have been offered, but Charles Dougherty, Sr.,
Vice President, Public Relations, and his assistant C. L. Fisher,
Third Vice President, are against participation and have so advised
Mr. Ecker. Mr. Ecker has advised Mr. Moses of this decision.
30. MINNEAPOLIS-HONEY'WELL Visit with Mr. Motley in Minneapolis
with Mr. Sweatt, former Chairman of Board, and Mr. Wishart,
present Chairman, resulted in assignment of Fair participation to
Mr. Herb Bissell, Advertising Vice President. Follow-up
scheduled.
3]. MINNESOTA MINING & MANUFACTURING Visit with Mr. Motley in
Minneapolis with Mr. Herb Beretow, President, and Messrs.
Patterson, Sampair and Moosberger of Foreign Division and
Advertising Department, has reopened consideration of partici-
pation. Additional meetings scheduled.
32. MUTUAL OF OMAHA Harold Fair (their advertising agency's New
York representative) has been approached (May 24, 1962) and
participation in Fair is being considered for first time by this
company. In initial stages.
33. NATIONAL DAIRY CO. Originally was a strong negative. The matter
has been reopened with an idea for an old fashioned "ice cream
parlor," featuring all of the Sealtest and Kraft products. Mr.
Joseph Caliri, Secretary, is to present this to the President.
No further progress since May 15, 1962.
Page 7
34. NATIONAL DISTILLERS & CHEMICAL CORPORATION. Henry Brown,
Public Relations Director, agreed to try to get the proper group
from this company to visit the Fair and reopen consideration.
(May 31, 1962)
35. NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE CO. Against a negative background
this situation has recently been reopened, both directly with the
company and with their advertising agency. New top company
officers have been elected recently and an appmach will be made;
advertising agency (Compton) has been cooperative.
36. PHILIP MORRJB, I N C ~ Prel iminary idea of a hospitality center was
presented to Roger Greene, Ad. Di.r. Next step is to get to
Mr. Cullman, which has been arranged through the Bankers Trust Co.
37. PIEL BROS. Plans for two Piel Bros. exhibits - one in the Industrial
and the o ther in the Transportation Section - were agreed to in
principle on May 17, 1962. Costs and other factors are now
being investigated. All signs seem favorable.
38. PILlSBURY. Meeting in Minneapolis with Mr. Motley resulted in
assignment of Mr. Powell, Public Relations Director, by Mr. Paul
Gerot, President of Pillsbury. Many officers and marketing and
advertising personnel have been briefed. Further appointments
to be arranged.
39. PITTSBURGH PLATE GLASs: Several proposals have been made to
this company including a tie-in for closed circuit television rights
throughout the Fair. Top management has been reluctant to make
a commitment despite recommendations from J. Walter Thompson
(their advertising agency) and Vice President in charge of Public
Relations. We have not thus far been able to convince the Presi-
dent of the company, Mr. David Hill. No progress since 5/15/62.
40. QUAKER OATS CO. Appointment scheduled in Chicago, June 6, 1962.
41. RADIO CORPORATION OF AlVlERICA. Messrs. Engstrom (President)
and Bilby (Vice President-Public Relations) have been out to the
Fair. The major problem seems to be the creation of an exhibit
which will protect a cost-conscious administm lion. Mr. Moses
has proposed an admission charge for an RCA "show" and we are
pursuing this approach together 'JJith other suggestions of means
whereby RCA can recoup a multi-million dollar expenditure which
we feel is surely justifiable. (May 21, 1962) RCA commissioned
two designers to submit proposals. Also there have been approaches
made to RCA concerning a "monorail" as a concession.
. '
PageS
42. REVLON. This company definitely wants to participate in the Fair.
They have sought ideas from their public relations and advertising
firms without satisfl]ing Mr. Charles Revson. We are making
several new proposals.
43. REXALL DRUG & CHE:MICAL CO. May 24, 1962 meeting with Mr.
Bowles, President, on the west coast. This followed earlier
meeting at the Fair with other top officers. Company is tnter-
ested but apparently reluctant to spend. A tie-in with a drug
outfit is being explored.
44. ROCKWELL MANUFACI'URING. May 24, 1962 Mr. W. F. Weiner, Vice
President and Director of Advertising and Public Relations, indi-
cated lack of money and consumer products make prospects
difficult. 'They might respond favorably if a good, inexpensive
idea could be found.
45. SKF INDUSTRIES. Earlier approaches indicated interest, but no answer
will be made until July. The matter is now being considered in
Sweden.
46. SPERRY R A N D ~ May 24, 1962 possible interest by their Univac Division
based on their success in Seattle.
47. WESTINGHOUSE ELECTRIC CORPORATION. This company has been
negative on participation in the Fair. Now there is a new interest
in a revival by Westinghouse of its "time capsule" project of 1939.
48. WORLD COFFEE COUNCIL. May 21, 1962. This client of J. Walter
Thompson may be interested in an exhibit. The presentation
now awaits return of key men.
49. WORLD OF TOYS. Offer of Lot 9, Block 8 - 26, BOO sq. ft. - has
been made to "World of Toys" which is negotiating a lease.
This is an industry-wide cooperative effort, and the lease forms
are in their hands. Appears favorable.

On motion duly made and seconded, it was
RESOLVED, that the reading of the
minutes of the Executive Committee meeting
of April 16, 1962, is dispensed with, and such

AGENDA ITEM 2. Public Relations Program
Recommendations and Budget
There was a general discussion of the
communications, public relations, press, publicity, and advertising
activities of the Fair. It was the sense of the meeting that it was
desirable to have a more comprehensive statement of the responsibility
with respect to these activities than was provided for in the Board of
Directors resolution of June 24, 1960 on this subject. Accordingly,
on motion duly made and seconded, it was unanimously
RESOLVED, that, subject only to the
overall authority of the Executive Committee,
the President shall have authority over, and
responsibility for, the organization, administration,
personnel and conduct of public relations, communi-
cations, press, publicity, and advertising activities
of the Fair Corporation, including the Communications
and Public Relations Division of the Fair Corporation
and its counselors, the Thomas J. Deegan Company, Inc. ,
the William J. Donoghue Corporation, the J. Walter
Thompson Company, Inc., John Campbell Films, Inc.,
and Richard Guthridge; and
FURTHER RESOLVED, that the President
shall determine the extent to which, and the manner
in which, such authority and responsibility shall be,
from time to t1me, delegated to officers of the Fair
Corporation and the contractors to the Fair Corporation.

\
The Port Authority is prepared to construct the World's Fair Heliport, Club and
Restaurant facilities together with an exhibit building in the base, in accordance
with the general terms on which verbal agreement has been reached. The legal
staffs of the Port Authority and the Fair have virtually concluded the document
embodying the terms of this agreement. Approval was received from the Board of
C011111issioners of the Port Authority at its meeting of May lOth and we are prepared
to execute the document as soon as it is finalized.
Construction Schedule
In order that this facility will be available for use by both the Fair Corporation
and other exhibitors by October 1963, we have proceeded on a definitive design.
Bids were advertised for the furnishing and erection of the steel on June 1, 1962.
These bids are due on June 21, 1962. Our Board has authorized award of this con-
tract upon receipt.
The foundation plans are virtually completed and it is expected that construction
of the foundations will begin on or about August 1, 1962.
Helicopter Operations
A Memorandum of Understanding has been signed by the Port Authority and New York
Airways under which New York Airways will operate all helicopter services. New
York Airways has on order five new Boeing Vertol 107 twin-turbine helicopters
which will provide service from within the Metropolitan Area and the airports to
the Fair. Negotiations are presently underway between the Port Authority, New
York Airways, Boeing and United Aircraft (Sikorsky) to obtain additional equip
ment from both companies. This equipment would be furnished to New York Airways
on a lease basis. Our object is to extend the scope of helicopter operations to
the Fair to the outlining areas of Philadelphia, Connecticut and Long Island.
For example, a helicopter flight from Philadelphia to the Fair would take approxi
mately 28 minutes. These negotiations, if concluded successfully, would result in
additional helicopter traffic and paid admissions to the Fair.
Club & Restaurant
An agreement has been executed by the Port Authority and Top of The Fair, Inc.
and we have received an payment of $100,000. Under this agreement the
Port Authority would construct the building, walls, soundproof ceiling, etc. and
Top of The Fair, Inc. would provide the capital for interior finishes and
furnishings, kitchen equipment, etc. Review of this agreement by the Fair

of this responsibility and a willingness to operate a reatauxant in the future
subject to definitive negotiations with the Park Department and the City of New
York. Under a supplementary agreement which is being worked out by the legal
staffs of tbe Fair and the Port Authority, Knott Hotels would become the organ!
zation to organize, manage and operate the World's Fair Club
1
Restaurant and
"Cocktail Louqe during the period from October 1963 to the close of the Pair.
W9rld 's Fair Club
Under the supplementary agreement, the organization, management and operation of
the Club by lnott Hotels Corporation would be subject to the approvals
of both the Pair Corporation and the Port Authority. This also includes approval
of prices, interior layout and furnishings, etc. The Agreement further states
that there shall be a Board of Governors of the Club consisting of twelve persona;
five designated by the Port Authority and five to be designated by the Pair Corpor-
ation, with a Chairman and Vice Chairman to be designated by mutual agreement
between the Port Authority and t:he Fair Corporation. The Board of Governors will
assist and ulte recoaaendations to the Pair Corporation and the Port Authority in
aatters of club direction and control. The dues for the Club and the methods and
procedures for soliciting. and approving memberships will be subject to the Fair
Corporation' approval. The present agreement states that IH!lbership in the Club
shall be open to all persons regardless of race, creecl, sex or color and that
there ahall be no diecrbaination in the solicitation or admiasion of member1.
The Club will be physically separated from the public restaurant and cocktail
lounge facilities, There will also be set aside within the Club area a special
area for the exclusive use of the World's Fair Corporation, capable of handliq
100 people. It will also be possible for the Fair Corporation for ita official
fuactions, to take over all or a part of the total facility. Eleven hundred
people can be accOIIIIIOdated at one time in the club end restaurant level and an
additional 360 people can be accOIIIDodated at one time in the Cocktail Lounse
level.
Proyitigns Por The future
The is being designed as a permanent facility in the event that approval
is obtained frc. the City of New York to retain the building after the Fair is
cloaed. Bxamples of this penaanent building construction are use of creosoted
pilea in lieu of plain tblber piles, permanent air-conditioning centralized system

of New York. The Knott Hotels Corporation is willing to remain as the operator
of this facility after the Fair closes but this is subject to negotiation between
the Knott Hotels Corporation and the Department of Parks 10 with ultimate approval
by the Board of Estbnate. Helicopter operations may continue after the Pair is
closed subject to the need for such service. I have already held discussions with
New York Airways on this point.
