Fair pulls a profit despite problems United Press International KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — The 1982 World’s Fair ended ils six- month run Sunday with 11,127,786 visitors recorded, and its organizers celebrated with a sparkle of fireworks and a champagne toast to the “scruffy little city” that hosted it. The fair ended in the black, causing officials to declare it a financial success. “These mountain folks should be proud because we have been able to do what most people said we couldn’t do — to have a suc cessful World’s Fair,” Jake Butcher, the millionaire Knoxvil le banker who helped arrange federal financing, said at a final ceremony Sunday night. “I’d like to take a couple of (champagne) bottles and pour them over the heads of the peo ple who said we couldn’t do it,” Butcher said. Fair officials had hoped to attract 11 million people and were 127,786 over that figure, exceeding the totals of the 1975 fair in Spokane, Wash., and the 1962 exposition in Seattle. Promoters made the last pay ment on loans for the $115 mil lion extravaganza three weeks ago, and fair president S.H. “Bo” Roberts said the event will end up with a profit, although he de clined to say how big. The going was rough for the fair in the beginning. Citizens were refused a referendum and were upset. Loans were hard to come by, corporations were hard United Texas De oter dissati to attract, and the fair went broke.

Sen. Lloy< Big steel makers founder United Press International PITTSBURGH — Massive third-quarter losses recorded by the nation’s largest steel com panies w ill get worse and imports will grow until they grab up to 30 percent of the U.S. market, analysts predict. “None of the majors are in trouble,” said Charles Bradford, vice president of Merrill Lynch, Pierce Fenner & Smith, Inc. “But if we have another year as bad as this one, with just 40 percent capacity, a couple of them might not make it.” He said imports now take only about 20 percent of the U.S. mar ket, and that steel makers will have to cut production even more to survive. The country’s eight major steel firms swam in red ink from July through September. U.S. Steel Corp. lost $82.4 mil lion; Bethlehem Steel Corp., $208.9 million; Republic Steel Corp., $74.6 million; Armco Inc., $112.6 million; National Steel Corp., $96 million; Inland Steel Corp., $45 million; Wheel- ing-Pittsburgh Steel Corp., $26 million.
