- Sunburst tower marks Billy Graham Pavilion.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: P-30913 SUNBURST TOWER MARKS BILLY GRAHAM PAVILION NEW YORK -- The Billy Graham Pavilion at the New York World’s Fair, located near the main entrance, promised on opening day to be among the most heavily attended religious buildings at the exposition. Marked by a glistening sunburst tower and surrounded by fountains and outdoor hanging gardens, the pavilion features a theater which shows an evangelistic film narrated by Mr. Graham. On hand are many counselors, prepared to maintain an ongoing “crusade” in behind-the-screen rooms for viewers who respond to the film’s appeal.

- Mormon Temple facade beckons fair visitors.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: P-30914 MORMON TEMPLE FACADE BECKONS FAIR VISITORS NEW YORK -- Towering pillars, columns and spires are located throughout the 646-acres of the New York World’s Fair, and among the most impressive is the front facade of the Mormon Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at Salt Lake City, Utah. A large reflecting pool is in front of the tall structure, which is topped by a gold statue of the Angel Moroni. Dioramas, statuary and a twin theater are main features of the pavilion. A 15-minute film, “Man’s Search for Happiness,” is offered on a staggered schedule in both theaters. Except for minor finishing touches, the pavilion was ready for the Fair’s opening on April 22 and drew large crowds. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (RNS-NY-4D-64-NBM)

- Wycliffe Bible Translators work told at fair.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: P-30915 WYCLIFFE BIBLE TRANSLATORS WORK TOLD AT FAIR NEW YORK -- William G. Nyman, Jr., of New York, regional secretary for the Wycliffe Bible Translators, and Miss Carole Vanden Hoek of Grand Rapids, Mich., a Wycliffe worker, test a display in the organization’s exhibit at the New York World’s Fair. Called the Pavilion of 2,000 Tribes -- that many tribes as yet do not have a written language -- the building has a front exhibit area describing translation techniques and the work of the Wycliffe organization. Large murals in a special room tell the story of Christian linguistic work among headhunters in the Peruvian jungle. Here, Miss Vanden Hoek listens to an example of Mazateco, a “whistle” language of Mexico. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (RNS-NY-4D-64-NBM)
