Title: Look-alikes.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-30497 LOOK-ALIKES MARYKNOLL, N.Y. -- Seeing double -- twice. Twin Maryknoll Sisters meet twins Ann and Agnes Shigo as the returned missionaries conduct an assembly program at a parochial. School. Sister Regina Rosaire and Sister Rosaire Marie -- born Mary and Marie Gray of Meadville, Pa. -- have returned from nine years of mission service in the steaming jungles of Bolivia. The twins, following the Maryknoll pattern, are now studying at college, pending reassignment to missionary work. While in Bolivia, they taught at neighboring missions. In 1957, Sister Regina Rosaire was stricken by polio, recovering completely after experiencing almost total paralysis. Maryknoll’s only twins hope to return to Bolivia where, they say, Communists have cells in practically every village. They say that presence of the Peace Corps has been helpful in spreading democratic ideals. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (M-NY-1C-64-W)

Title: World's Fair Christian exhibits.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-29721 WORLD’S FAIR CHRISTIAN EXHIBITS NEW YORK -- Spires, towers, crosses, famous religious art objects, and light beams reaching skyward will project the Christian message to the 70 million people expected to visit the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair. Religious pavilions offering a wide variety of features will cover more than seven acres in the heart of the fair’s International and Industrial areas, space which has been provided rent-free. Architect’s rendering of the various pavilions are shown above. The Vatican Pavilion (top left) will be on an oval plot, surmounted by a lantern and cross and housing a 350-seat chapel. Also in the Roman Catholic pavilion will be the famed sculpture, “Pieta,” (center) created by Michelangelo in 1499, which the late Pope John XXIII agreed to send to the fair for display. The Protestant Center (top right) will be a united Christian display proclaiming the theme, “Jesus Christ, the Light of the World,” with an exhibit pavilion behind a Court of Protestant Pioneers, pillars dedicated to Christian leaders surrounding an elevated, illuminated cross. The center is sponsored by the Protestant Council of the City of New York, with several denominations participating. The main spire of the pavilion of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon) (center left) will reach upward 127 feet and be crowned by a statue of the Angel Moroni. The structure is a replica of the famed Salt Lake City Temple. The Billy Graham Pavilion (center right) will be octagonal in shape and will incorporate a 500-seat theater, 150-seat chapel, counseling rooms, a lounge and offices. The Christian Science Pavilion (bottom left) will rise 35 feet in the shape of a seven-pointed star and will be topped by a diamond-shaped “sky dome” which will throw a shaft of light into the sky. The building will be surrounded by 14 illuminated fountains and an aluminum and glass reading room will be nearby. Films produced by the Moody Institute of Science, showing the harmony between science and religion, will be shown in the Sermons from Science Pavilion (bottom right), an exhibit sponsored by the Christian Life Convention of New York City. In the pavilion’s 500-seat circular theater, film narration and demonstrations will be in six languages, with translations available through earphones.
