World's Fair Official Tune: ''Fafr Is Fair"
WORLD’S FAIR — Richard
Rodgers, world-famous composer,
has written the New York 1964-
1965 World’s Fair official song,
titled “Fair is Fair.”
.Of Mr. Rodgers and the song,
Robert Moses, Fair president,
said, “A Fair theme must be
tuneful as well as thoughtful.
It must' have a theme song as
weH
symphony. R must'
be a -march to which people
everywhere will hum and mark
time, and which will make them
think of Flushing Meadow.
"Who can write our song bet
ter than Richard Rodgers? That
is a rhetorical question to which
there is just one answer. There
is only one Rodgers and he is
our minstrel.”
"Fair is Fair” will be played
for the first time by Guy Lom
bardo and his Royal Canadians
during a special hour-long pro
gram over the coasl-to-coast fac
ilities of the CBS television net
work on New Year’s Eve, be
ginning at 11:15 p.m. The pro
gram wil originate from New
York's Grand Central Station.
Mr. Rodgers and Mr. Moses
discussed the composition at the
Players Club in New York City.
Start Clean
Up For
Fair Visitors
“Let’s polish up our living
room, and our living room is the
City of New York", said George
Dwight, chairman of the Citizens
Committee To Keep ffew York
City Clean last week announcing
the borough spruce-up campaign
to present a clean showcase to
60 million World Fair visitors
next year.
Posters, cards and advertising
material will be carried in "all
media of communication bear
ing the "don’t litter” theme,
“Just a drop in the basket helps
keep New York Clean.”
The campaign which has the
full cooperation of the Depart
ment of Sanitation, will stress
two main points; 1. education
by Citizens Committee volun
teers; 1 Health code enforce
ment to be visited on "litter-
bugs” by Sanitation Department
officers.
Dirtier Today
“New York City is eight per
cent dirtier than it was last
year." Dwight declared. He said
he did not know whose fault it
was, but he was calling on the
City agencies for cooperation
and to mobilize their forces be
tween now and Jan. 6 when the
project will get underway.
Starting Jan. 20 all the stops
will be pulled out. Persons who
fail to heed the eductbonal ap
peal will receive summonses
from the Sanitation patrolmen
and other DS officers.
Sanitation Commissioner Frank
J. Lucia announced that 10,000
litter baskets are on order and
should be delivered to the De
partment for distribution through
out Manhattan early next Spring.
Additional funds, he said, have
been appropriated for operation
al expense, allowing the Depart
ment to reinstate six-day gar
bage collection in areas where
