UNITED STATES PAVILION New York World's Fair 1964-1965    A film shows the origins of the people who have been simmered in America's melting pot. The audience then walks through "Challenges to Greatness," an area where models and other displays highlight 13 problems on which the nation is concentrating its energies. All this precedes a 15-minute ride on a moving grandstand for a motion-picture view of 472 years of American history.
