About 70,000 persons have paid 25 cents each to see this American Airlines DC-4, outfitted for show purposes with a cut-away interior with sleeper section made up for day and night use, day plane seating section, galley, air cargo section and pilot and first officer cockpit. Benefits go to the New York Police Athletic League. The plane was flown to New York from Santa Monica, carried by barge from LaGuardia Field to 54th St., and towed by tractor from the Hudson River to the display site at West 52nd St. and Avenue of the Americas, where it will remain until mid-June.
