cOrrects misinterpretation and
adds a bright comment on color!

4 tetC weeks ago THIS WEEK pub
hshed on its cOUeT spectacular art
lists conception of the ''Unisphere,"
gIObdL symbol of the Nem York
WorldS Fair 1864. The artists
choice of red to light the sphere
against the dark blue background
dretc some cdutiondv letters from
people WhO didn't Want the Fair to
gire any aid or comfort to commu-
nim. We think you'll be reasNred
By the reply made BY Robert Moses,
Preadentofthe Fair, to a lady reader:
Dear Madam: | have your letter
- of March l3 and others in
the same vein regarding the use of
red to mark the continents on the
Worlds Fair Unisphere, as they
were pictured on the cover of
THIS WEEK on March IL.
The Unisphere, including the
continents, will be made of STAIN
less steel.
All official graphic reproductions
of the Unisphere will be in light
blue, light green and black, not in
red. The red on This WEEKS
cover is, therefore, not official.
Let me, however, add this
thought on the general subject of
color. We can't take all the red
out of art and nature and become
anemic because we are strongly
against communism. There is red
in our flag and in the colors of
colleges and in the most striking
academic robes. The sunset is red.
So are many of the most gorgeous
and significant vestments of the

clergy. So are the capes of the
toreadors. So are the loveliest of
the roses, which by any other
name would smell as sweet, but
certainly in other varieties do not
look as we'll. And there's the red,
red robin, and so on. So let's keep
our red 6remen's shirts on and not
mix ideology and color.
Red robe Of GoIohod
From the historical point of
view, you may be interested in an
excerpt from a book describing
the panels in the frieze at the
Boston Public Library depicting
the legend in ''The Quest of the
Holy Grail:
''The red robe of Calahad dis
tinguishes the hero throughout the
series. Besides supplying a mag
ni6cent accent for the central fig
ure of each panel, the color has
a deep mystical significance. In
Christian symbolism red is the
color of spiritual purity - the
spirit cleansed as by fire. 1t stands
for activity, conflict, human effort,
with the knowledge of good and
evil that imparts the strength to
achieve the good and resist the
evil"
In any event, to repeat, red will
not appear on the Unisphere at the
Fair or on our stationery, reports
and other literature.
Sincerely,
<<2zzz
