CALIFORNIA'S WORLD FAIR (Continued)

Riqht: A qraceful tower of water risinq up from the surroundin q sea is on e of the lovely proposals for architectural ac complishment in the California World's Fair, at Lonq Beachin 1967 and 1968_ The qraceful structure will combine thebeauty of spoutinq water, in a huqe fountain effect, with thespectacular quality of f lame-a qiant qas je t servinq as abeacon at th e top of the edifice.

World' s Fair, to be held in Long Beach, Californiain 1967 and 1968, were prepared by Charles Luckman Associates, master planners and coordinatingarchitects for the California World's Fair.

The Fair's major site will be a 320-acre land-filla r ea -the largest manmade harbor facility in thewo rld-now being created in the Long Beach Harbor.Called Pier "J," the Fair site stretches some twomiles into the Pacific Ocean . Additional adj oiningland areas will bring total Fair acreage to some 550.More than 4.0,000,000 visitors are forecast for thetwoyear period of the California World's Fair, andan auth or itative independent economic research organization pred icted that the Fa ir will generate almos t $1 billion worth of additional expenditures inthe State.According to the prelim inary site plan presentedby Luckman, a canal system will traverse the lengthof the Pier area , serving as a system of transportation as well as a picturesque feature of the landscaping of the Fair area.In sharp contrast to the canals will be an ultramodern monorai l transportation system, which willserve as the basic method of mass movement withinthe Fair site, and connecting the huge pier area withthe performing arts section of the Fair, on the LongBeach shoreline.

Areas of the Fair site are designated for exhibitsby the Federal and State governments, by domesticand foreign industrial organizations, and by foreigngovernments. An area is also designated for theamusement zone.Some of the structures proposed by the Luckmanorganization are startlingly beautiful-utilizing thesea and wa ter as thematic concepts in architecturaldesigns. One structure would rise from the sea, asa giant fountain , and the play of lights and musicwould transform the structure into a wondrous fairyland at night.Luckman also proposes to utilize the water areasin a unique "floating exhibits" section; visitors wouldview these exhibits by crossing a bridge system fromexhibit to exhibit. An underwater area is also in theplanning stages-a simulated under-water city, whichwould be open to i n s p e c t i o ~ of the Fair's visitors.

The vast Fair site, now under constru ction, is expected to be completed in early 1965.Fair officials emphasized that, unlike previousworld's fairs, most building here will be of a permanent nature . Under terms of the site lease, with theLong Beach Harbor Commission, the California

World's Fair will leave a minimum of $10,000,000worth of buildings and improvements for permanentuse by the Harbor.

A system of picturesque canals through the sit e of the California World's Fa ir is one of thefeatures proposed for th e international expos ition to be held in Long Beach in 1967 a nd 1968.The canal system will serve doubleduty-as a transportation sy stem, an d as lovely a ddition tothe extensive landscaping planned for the spectacular site of the California World's Fai r. Avariety of boats will pl y the canal waters-and Venetian Gondoliers will sing a ria s to theirpassengers as they leisurely traverse the canal system, some two miles long, th rough theCalifornia World's Fair.

THE BULLDOZER ROARS under the ho t sun, uproot-ing acres of stubborn brush_ The scene is New

Guinea but the crew chief hails from Arizona. Thebulldozer operator is from North Carolina and th esurveyor from Wisconsin.

It 's a venturesome, hard-as-nails crew. They aremembers of a 200,000 man legion of engineers, su-pe rintend ents, mechanics, ca rpenters, plumbers, masons, machinists, pipewelders and other skilled worker s who have pushed back jungles, knocked dow nmountains, gouged holes into the ro cky earth , madedeserts bloom like ga rdens .

Their area of operation- the whole world.These men have torn themselves away from tele

vision an d social clubs, relatives and nei ghbors , togo pioneering in places as fa r away as Ghana, Greeceand Saigon - and to make big money doing it.They've men who prefer frontiers to their frontlawns.

Th e organization that lifted them out of ruts andinto the bu sh country is an outfit called the Construction Men's Association, nicknamed the "Constructionmen 's Foreign Leg ion" by contractors and government agencies.

From their headquarters at 17 Avenue of theAmericas in New York City, peppery five-foot-two,13S-pound president James H. Dillon looks ou t ofhis window each day at a city full of people andpoints to them with sympathy."Those people," he says, gazing at the street below, " ha ven' t been around the block with a seeingeye dog." Dillon's job is to stimulate more of themto work in foreign countries where their labor isneeded.

LANDMARK TOWERA N ALMOST-IMPOSSIBLE rigging job has been effi-ciently and easily accomplished in the final construction of the mushroom-shaped Landmark Towerin Las Vegas _

The problem arose when the 300-foot tower wasapproaching completion and the aluminum sheeting,to cover the massive underneath area of Nevada'sanswer to the Space Needle, had to be installed_

In studying the rigging problem, experts from theApex Steel Company determined that tubular steelscaffolding would have been excessively expensivefor the short time required to complete the "mush-room_

Electri c-powered Sky Climbers, which climb acable suspended from above, proved to be the answer-Working together , Bob Lynch of Apex Steel andGeorge Larson of Ladder Industries, Los Angelesdealers for Sky Climber, devised a means of gaining

access to all ar eas of each of the eight undersidesections in turn_ Equipment comprised two 40-footTitan swing stage scaffolds , plus an additional 60-foot scaffold, all powered by Sky Climbers_ The 60-

A fascinating view of on e of La s Vegas' newes t "high-spots" _ . the Landmark Tower.Seen in operation are the electric-poweredSky Climbers used in th e unusual riggingoperation of this 300-foot edifice to provide aplatform for workmen attaching sheet metalto the underside of the- structure .

foot scaffold is the longest known stage for a swin ging pO\ 'ered scaffold in existence, according to Larson_

Four wire ropes were suspended from the Landmark Tower structural steel. At each end of the 60-fo ot stage a Sky Climber and stirrup was attached.A 40-foot stage was similarly equipped. The other40-foot stage was straddled across so that it couldbe moved to an y desired position beneath the blistersection .

When the equipment was so set up and the powerapplied, the stages climbed to the top in 18 minutes,operating on slow speed with 1000-lb. capacity lifton each Sky Climber.

Utilizing the mobility of the eq uipment, wo rkersapplied the aluminum sheeting in i e r a b fastertime than originally expected."There's no doubt but l!tilizing imagination an fJ

the best equipment available has enabled us to p f form this exceptionally difficult operation to thesatisfaction of all concerned," Lynch reported.
