New York (AP) Thousands of (lag-waving, singing people flooded in wave after wave down Fifth Avenue yesterday in a massive show of support for American servicemen in Vietnam. One estimate said the number of marchers could be as high as 250,000. Ray Gimmler, the New York City fire department captain who organized the. "support-Our-Boys-In-Vietnam" demonstration said many times more people than expected showed up at the parade's kickoff spot.

He predicted the march might go on well into the night If the march were as large as predicted, it would be twice the size of the antiwar demonstration held here April 15. Official estimates of that demonstration were 125,000. THE VAST majority of the marchers carried American flags, either brought with them from their 1 homes or bought from hawkers who did a brisk business along the parade route. i Throughout the metropolitan area, people hung flags In front of, homes and bust- nesseS. 4 "There were several incidents of scuffling and sign ripping between marchers and anti- war advocates.
