On board the great vessel were 2,139 pas- sengers as she pointed her bow toward the English channel. More than 500,000 spectators black- ened docks and the roofs of buildings and overflowed to vantage points along the Solent. Thousands of mo- torboats, tugs and excursion craft swarmed like so many chips in a pond about the giant vessel. Five boat trains from London, car- trying the largest single consignment of passengers for one ship in the his- tory of Britain, arrived alongside the Queen Mary from 1 to 3 p. m.

Passengers had two swimming pools, one in tourist class, First class trav- elers could eat in a main dining room seating 800 persous at one time, wan- der through a main lounge 96 feet léng and 70 feet wide, or enjoy enter- ‘tainment in a verandah grill. They could telephone about the ship, or to ‘any part of the world, and walk on a 750-feet-long promenade deck. An investment of more than $25,- 000,000 was involved in the completed | Queen Mary, towering high above the water with her 12 decks. The vessel is slightly smaller in gross tonnage than the Normandie, her 80,773 tons being tompared to & tonnage of nearly 82,000 for the Nor- mandie.
