HOUSE OFGOOD TASTE

Three houses-traditional, contempo-rary and modern-fully furnished andprovisioned down to liqueurs on thecoffee table, are on exhibition in thishomemakers' center. The buildings aresponsored not by one exhibitor but byscores of building, decorator and house-wares companies. Their aim is to pro-

vide visitors with a yardstick of homebuilding and decorating standards. Inaddition, there is a stripped-down housethat enables visitors to look into thewalls and see secrets of construction thatare ordinarily invisible.* Admission:25 cents.

Highlights

rRADrrroNAL HousE. This house ofwhite plastic clapboard, with terraceand swimming pool. is an adaptation ofa rambling New England farmhouse. Ithas three bedrooms and displays suchfeatures as a party room with indoorbarbecue fireplace and a kitchen with asewing nook.coNTEnpoRARy HousE. Sliding-glasswalls and a living room skylight makethis a house of l ight and space. Furnish-ings are both antique and contemporary,there is a separate family robm, and inthe garage are a Finnish steam bath anddressing room. Most of the rooms openonto sundecks, and the grounds have nofewer than three pools, as well as a sum-mer house.ntroDERN HousE. Edward Durell Stonels"inward looking" house was designedfor the suburban lot, with the houseenclosing the grounds to ensure pri-

vacy. A patio is in each corner, and agarden is in the center under a glass

dome. The l6-foot-long living room ishung with modern American paintingson loan from museums, galleries andartists.

HTDDENAssETs. The innards of a house,such as wiring, plumbing and heatingsystems that normally stay out of sight,are on view in the open-wall structure.

Of the thousands of trees that were grow-

ing in Flushing Meadow, 200, ranging

up to 50 feet tall, had to be transplanted

because of construction. Another 5,100

were planted especial ly for the Fair. In

addit ion to the trees, about 10,000

pounds of grass seed were sown and

415.000 f lowers planted.
