Nuns Take a Day Off at the New York World's Fair
Thousands of teaching nuns attended the National Catholic Education Association convention in New York with over 25 000 educators visiting the fair. Heavy rain dampened the one day set aside for the fair but the nuns explored Vatican and U S exhibits, historic documents, presidential memorabilia, and foreign pavilions seeking indoor shows and fair weather.
