Worlds Fair continued I 6 STUDEN T LIFE shopping and entertainment of many nations. They also viewed precious an- tiquities from other cauntries such as ancient Egyptian artifacts and por- tions of the Great Wall of China. They witnessed the unwrapping of a Peruvi- an mummy and heard astronauts speak to World's Fair officials from high above the earth in the space shuttle Columbia. Energy Turns the World was the fair's theme. and displays of the par- ticipating countries foCused on their technological achievements in the en- ergy field. Unfortunately, the technology bored 3 great many tourists, while those dis- plays featuring the cultural and social aspects of the country attracted the most attention. The fair had other problems as well. Controversy surrounded the fair from the beginning over everything from funding to the unwrapping of the Peru- vian mummy. Fair housing was contro- versial; it was inadequate at times, and always too expensive. Some tourists were even booked to stay in a motel that had been torn down. Long lines, especially at the exhibit for the People's Republic of China, an- gered and discouraged many visitors. The summer heat further complicated this problem by making the waiting un- bearable for many, and news of people passing out from heat exhaustion was common. At midday, the shores of the man-made lake were lined with tour- ists soaking their aching feet in the invitingly cool water. All in all, the $lm million-plus ex- travaganza was a great success, espe- cially for the city of Knoxviile that suf- fered much less than most other cities in Tennessee during the recession of l982. The majority of the tourists leaving the fair agreed that it had been well worth the $9.95 admission price. As one anonymous visitor put it. There is something about seeing so many coun- tries get together with so much ex- citement to sponsor a fair like this. that makes you feel very good ab0ut the future of the world. g3 Ron Campbe
