ATLANTIC CITY - This is what unemployment looks like in a shrinking casino town.

The line stretched from one end of the Atlantic City Convention Center to the other as more than 1,000 job seekers - many recently laid-off casino workers - waited to register for an opportunity to chat and drop off resumés with 53 regional employers Wednesday.

They came in suits and casual wear for the all-day job fair, which began at 10 a.m., and was sponsored by the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development, the agency that has set up shop at the Convention Center for the last week to deal with what Commissioner Harold J. Wirths calls \"a crisis.\"

By 2 p.m., the number of job seekers who had come through the Convention Center had grown to about 1,500. Wirths said the total was hard to track since people were coming in from all entrances.
