a travelogue on new york perhaps we may be pardoned this week if our editorial columns adopt tho format of a travelogue weve heard all the stories about a persons trip being a tot more inter eating to themselves than to the hundreds upon whom it is inflicted but in this case you can have ihe choice of stopping or starting here the seventh international graphic arts exposition an event held only every 10 years was scheduled for new york city last week this was the reason then why five of us from the plant decided it should be an event worth seeing we knew it would be the worlds largest display of printing machinery and in this we were not disappointed leaving about 8 pm thursday night we faced a night of driving but with flvo drivers taking turns about every hour or two this was not as tedious as might be imaqmed driving the new york state thru way is steady and time saving we had breakfast in new york within 12 hours of leaving and there was no attempt to make the tnp a mvithon record stops were frequent driving into new york driving into new york city is an expert ence in itself our arrangements to change drivers ust outside new york went out the window when we found no place to stop with traffic zooming byxin about six different sides our carefully plotted route over the george washington bridge went fine until we hit the inevitable detour new york has one way streets and amazingly enough we weathered the detour and loot ed our hotel toll roads are extremely popular m new york state and so are the toll bridges but their facilities are quite time saving and do provide much more pleasure driving we were relieved in front of the hotel whentbedoorman assured us he would look after parking the car from our initial bap tjsm of drivinq on new york streets we really drdnt want to see the car again until we were ready to return home beds look good after better than 24 hours witbwsftftueri sleep the hotel beds were a welcome sight but in new york people don t seem to need as much rest and soon we were on our way to the coliseum about seven or eight blocks iron the hotel ours was definitely an economy trip so shoe leather was used ex tensively the exposition itself was interesting and educational yet fnghteninq there will be with the new developments so little room for the small general printing firm speciali zation will be vital as some of the new pro cesses and materials come into more general use complex forms were being printed in two colors serially numbered and perforat ed four at a time at a speed of 8 000 an hour the time used in preparing the press to complete this work was considerable bul the speed was almost unbelievable there are the developments where machines instead of casting lines of type from molten metal photograph the letters making a negative n preparation for the completion of a printing plate a changing industry a few years ago when we installed an electronic enqravmg machine we realised lh field was a rapkily chanqmg one but the changes have come quickly now similar machines are making four color engravings varying the size from that of the onainal picture and doing several other significant operations it was interesting and educational to see the tremendous changes even since we at tended the last exposition in chicago 10 years earlier keeping machinery and ideas current is no doubt one of the biggest pro blems in any industry today seeing new york we had to see something of new york too though friday evening we started wandering around broadway and times square tike many other unconcerned rubber necking tourists we weren t ombarassedto stop and look for the top of the building or watch the fanlastie neon signs flashing oul their messages we enoyed trying to figure out whether it was real water that was flow ing over the pepsi cola sign or lust a light ing effect wo concluded it was real water times square is one of those interesting places whore you can stand on the corner watching people go by and be completely entertained it isn t enlf rlainment through humor but through interest on the surface everything seems happy and nay there is a light hearledness in the air slreet corner conversations are numerous and animated everyone seems to be going somewhere bul a closer look finds many aimless wan dcrers like ourselves something to come about nine o clock police started ar riving from all direclions and gathering around a veiled statue m hie central part of times square there was a platform and premise of something to come we stood waiting until 10 and then learned all the preparation was to unveil a statue of george m cohan but at 1 1 30 wo decided to catch seme sleep and return george jessel was master of ceremonies and there were other notables present in eluding oscar hammerstein ii the ceremony was filled with speeches which were quite interesting thousands gathered on cne of new york s mam arteries as traffic was choked off and rerouted from this point it was easy to learn the origin of ihe term great while way as far as the eye could see thousands of neon signs and lights flashed down very closely resembling the brightness of day this is the area that doesn t come alive until after upper in thedaytime the crowds were not hewy it was more of a business bustle but after six thousands of people appeared in everything from bermuda shorts to evening dress clogging ihe streets as they laughed their wiy along limited time a problem the problem of seeing the city revolved around the very hrniied time available an eight hour tour was obviously out and the shorter ones would only review a large portion of what we had already seen we decided to take our own tour that meant walking so along fifth ave to 42nd st we went to the u n time was valuable and the next tour of the united nations headquarters was 60 minutes awiy we took our own hurried look through the general assembly committee room and the other facilities we could obtain access to promising a return visit when more time was available the grounds and the build ings themselves are dignified and impressive we condescended to use the city s trans portation system to qet us to the next point at battery patk where we boarded a ftrry for liberty island and ihe very popular statue of liberty viewing the skyline the ferry trip gave us a wonderful view of the famous new york sky line where the mult stoieyed buildings reach skyward m almost endless disarray the statue itself is impressive m size the elevator tcok us up 10 stones but agam lack of time prevented us from climbing the next 12 storeys the view is terrific but we rac td to catch the boat back to the city after more time at the exposition we took a quick look at central park wandered again through the city s heart travelled off the beaten track less than a block off broad way can be pretty grim walking after dark gave our regards to broadway and pre pared to return coming home through the beaut ful pennsylvania hills along the susquehanna river was pleasant but rather slow the new york thruway was wekome as we neared home and the hour grew ate the good old days last launching sec at cutct
