For the Naval Review, seventeen na-) tions and 1 13 ships were present, all full-dressed and looking very proud in the double line which stretched over the horizon on both sides of the Norfolk channel. The reviewing parties consisted of the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of the Navy and the Chief of Naval Operations who passed by in the USS CANBERRA, USS BOSTON and USS NORTHAMPTON.
