The port authority heliport and "Top of the Fair" restau rant received a rousing sendoff from 700 patrons of the Trav elers Aid Society. It is the first completed fcir building and will be open from now on for visitors who wish to watch the progress of the fair's construc tion.

Circular picture windows provided the revelers with a panoramic view of fair buildings under construc tion and the distant skyscrap ers of Manhattan. Storting this morning, visitors can make the helicopter trip from Manhattan to the fair heli port in six minutes, the public restaurant seating 1.200 at a lime, the Terrace Club for VIP guests of the fair corporation.

BOURBON Vj years old m mm The success of the "Ages" NEW YORK (UPI) - The morning tabloid New York Mir ror, with the nation's second largest daily circulation, put out its last edition today ending almost 40 years of publication. In an announcement Tuesday night the Hearst Corporation, publisher of the Mirror, said that the "name, goodwill and other intangible and physical Council Studies Tamales Ruling MEMPHIS. Tenn.

F. M. Flynn, president and publisher of the News, express ed the regrets of his publication that the Mirror had decided to discontinue publication. "However," Flynn's statement said, "knowing the adverse eco nomic pressures confronting all New York newspapers, we can understand the reasons for its decision. "The prolonged blackout of New York newspapers this past winter adversely affected all of them," Flynn declared. "Since resumption of publication, for mer circulations have not been regained and advertising in all papers combined is running be hind last year." Flynn did not disclose the purchase price for the Mirror. The Daily News, also a morn ing tabloid, was the Mirror's major competitor. Its circula tion, reported by the Publishers Association of New York for the period prior to the four-month newspaper strike which ended last March 31. was more than two million. That of the Mirror for the same period was just over 900.000. The brjef Hearst Corporation announcement placed part of the blame for the paper's shutdown on last winter's 114-day New York City newspaper strike but indicated the paper had faced serious fiscal problems before that. "Costs have risen far in ex cess of revenues," the an nouncement said, "and have created substantial deficits over an extended period of time. The recent prolonged newspaper strike aggravated the already serious problems of the Mirror." the television of the future is here today! lift NEW Weighs only 8 lbs.!
