Braving snow and low temperatures, some 120 thousand march up Fifth Avenue in the annual Saint Patrick's Day Parade. 122,000 marchers trudge the frigid three-mile route while more thousands along the route cheered the hardy procession. The Irish flag flying over New York City hall. Downtown New York, people, traffic and a tractor plow removing snow. City workers with their shovels cleaning up the streets. US military man, woman and a young girl walking with 2-Irish Wolfhounds. Mayor of New York, John Vliet Lindsay, a staunch supporter of the Civil Rights Bill and Democrat. Robert Kennedy, Democrat politican is present. Irish Bagpipers march in the parade. The area is covered with a blanket of snow.
