PETERSON London, May 12—()—Mists of memory, swirling out of the past, momentarily dimmed the eyes of 69- year-old Queen Mother Mary today for the coronation of her second oldest son in the soft-lit splendor of Westminster Abbey. No one denied the proud and stately old queen the right to yield to emotion. For the coronation of George VI was to Queen Mary, mag- nificently robed, with a half mil- lion dollar diadem agleam on her head, a time of both pride and sor- row, both happiness and pain. It was the past as well as the future which paraded before her. In the solemnity and majesty of the occa- sion, the pulsating music, the sonor- ous intonation of familiar words, the ringing of bells and the echo of guns, she watched and listened in the role of onlooker—where once she had Participated and experienced, Hears Memorable Words “Receive the crown of glory, honor and joy...” : There was memory enough in that; memory of the day 26 years ago when she moved through the nave} of the abbey to the throne; of the day when she rode through the | densely-packed streets of London as ® queen newly-crowned, in the gol- den state coach with King George the Fifth by her side. “,.. A crown of pure gold. upon your head. . .” Little More Than Spectator Today she was little more than a spectator, with destiny in retrospect rather than a pathway to the future —® grey-haired woman of almost 70, watching history repeated but changed, still true to the traditions of an English queen. Britain and the empire cheered her. It may have been that her thought dwelt on the world-shaking abdica- tion of her oldest son, the brief-reign- ing Edward VIII, who-gave up the throne of empire for the love of dark- eyed Wallis Warfield.

A heavy fog which shrouded the city throughout the night lifted, however, at daybreak.
