VIOLENT STORM AT GIBRALTAR
SHIPS DRIVEN ASHORE (Rec. 12.5 a.m.) LONDON, Jan. 7. “A storm drove two' ships and half a ship ashore, caused the evacuation of 300 residents of a temporary housing site, and set 23 lighters adrift,” says the Gibraltar correspondent of “The Times.” ‘‘Seven dockyard labourers were washed off a mole and one was drowned. The half ship is the forward part of a Norwegian tanker which was cut into two sections by a torpedo three years ago.”
