U.S.S.R. Marks Anniversary. In Moscow, the Soviet celebrates its 41st anniversary, the anniversary of the 1918 revolution that put the Bolsheviks in power, with a parade that is surprisingly 'low-key' - staged with notable lack of emphasis on military might, and markedly underplaying the usual red propaganda themes. Parade in Red Square, marching. Rather large balloons are released. Spectators, including one man with still camera.
