Text transcribed from caption: PC-30930 FAIR CROWDS STREAM BY UNISPHERE NEW YORK -- A balmy spring day brings large crowds to the newly-opened New York World’s Fair, where pavilions and exhibits over 646-acre expanse carry out the general theme of the exposition: “Peace through Understanding.” The towering Unisphere, standing over fountains and a broad pool, symbolizes today’s “shrinking world in an expanding universe.” In addition to hundreds of business, industrial and governmental structures, the Fair features eight different religious pavilions.
