SHAKE-DOWN CRUISE OF "QUEEN MARY"
Southampton, July 26. The rejuvenated post-war "Queen Mary" returned from her shake-down cruise today and disem- barked 500 distinguished guests, many of whom brought ashore fresh white bread and rolls to take to their children-who never had seen the like since September, 1939.
The 83,00-ton Cunard-White Star liner. made the three-day run preparatory to returning to the trans-Atlantic luxury run on which she will make her first post-war trip to New York on July 31..
Auglerity-ridden Britons mak- ing the cruise marvelled at the appointments, food and liquor set out on the "Queen Mary."
