After the wet evening performance, and what turned out for most to be an uncomfortable and sleepless night, fans milled about the lawn of St. Michael's School this morning, drinking coffee sold from the Kiwanls booth on the premises. International songs seemed to be the main attraction, with other smaller groups congregating around Negro singing and string bands.

The Rodriguez Brothers chanted five different Afrl can songs In dialect before Kau. pena Wong and Noelanl Mahoe performed two numbers from their native Hawaii. On another section of the lawn, Alan Lomax and Willis James gave spectators a hand clapping, foot stomping, hip slapping version of the revival song "Noah and the Lord." A third group formed around the siring bands who appeared this time with mountain In their company, The wet grass didn't teem to deter those who suffered from acute exhaustion. They jusl spread their blankets and curled up under a tree to fall asleep to the songs ot their favorite performers.

Five other employes of the new United-Nuclear Plant also vere held at Rhode Island Hospital following the unexplained explosion which is being investigated by the Atomic Energy Plant physician Dr. Howard Laskey said Peabody, 38, was subjected to.the "whole-blast" of radiation. Peabody is Isolated in ah fam room where he is being treated lead gloves. George Spencer, 32, of Exeter, suffered what were called "secondary side effects" from the explosion. He and four other workers are under observation.

Plant officials said the effects of the uranium released by the explosion were confined within the plant and there was no outside danger. But state and local police cor doned off the plant as a precaution. Robert Johnson, a spokesman or United Nuclear Corp. cribed the explosion as a clear criticality incident" BORN 'nu- and ,1 ol plant safety procedure." He said healh inspectors and civil defense personnel were able to reenter the plant three and a half liours aftr the explosion. Lasky said Spencer's side effects were caused by contact with Peabody.

He said Spencer Is expected to be released today. The privately' owned plant, isolated in a potato field, began operations in March. It is engaged in reclaiming uranium residue from waste materials such as metal scrap, rags and Lasky said no radiation be yor.d the normal amount has been detected outside the plant.
