The article discusses shredded paper manufactured by the Downtown Alliance. Executive Steven Josefsberg delivered one-half ton of shredded paper to Broadway Avenue in New York City in preparation for a parade celebrating the New York Yankees’ victory in Major League Baseball’s World Series. Twenty of thirty-two buildings along the parade route accepted free paper from the Alliance.
The author relates his experience of watching a parade of the baseball team New York Yankees in Broadway, New York City. He named the event as a ticker-tape parade because of the various kinds of papers that were thrown in the sky including letter heads and pages from a telephone book. After the trucks of the Yankees have passed, 4 tank trucks of Sanitation Department came to spray water on the papers and a group of sweeping machines churned these into paper mâché.
