Second Day Os Fair Draws Bigger Crowd NEW YORK (UPI) — Sunny skies and mild temperatures — and no civil rights demonstrators —greeted early visitors at the second day of the New York World’s Fair today. Nearly 24,000 visotors poured through turnstiles during the first hour at the fair—slightly higher than a comparative figure during the official opening Wednesday. Officials predicted a much higher total turnout today. “They’re in a festive mood,” a fair official said as he watched the crowd pour in. “They’re joking and laughing — even their clothes seem brighter. Now we have a real fair atmosphere.’’ The festive spirit was in contrast to the atmosphere Wednesday when visitors braved a daylong drizzle and civil rights disorders. Only scattered demonstrations were anticipated today. Several hundred New York police were stationed at the fair entrances to head off a repetition of Wednesday’s demonstrations, which included chanting during a speech by President Johnson. Continued clear and warming weather was predicted. A total of 92,646 persons passed through the turnstiles before the gates were locked for the night at 2 a.m. EST. But that was far fewer than the quarter-million expected at the opening. Hie probability is that day- and night-long rain and the largely unfulfilled threat of civil rights disorders were responsible for the smaller crowd. The heralded “stall-in” blockade of access highways was a failure and harassment of public transportation was minimal. Most of the demonstrating was done inside the fair proper. At least 299 persons were arrested in the disorders which included a bloody subway incident and chants of “freedom now. . . freedom n0w...” Backgrounding President Johnson’s speech at the dedication. Police forcibly removed about 20 demonstrators holding up a fairbound train and some were clubbed. Geneva Woman, Son Unhurt In Accident Mrs, Marion Smith, Geneva, and her five-year-old son, David, escaped serious injury Tuesday morning when the station wagon driven by Mrs. Smith swerved into a utility pole along Indiana 116 four miles west of Berne in Wells county.
