Ship aground-car at sea
Typhoon Mary turned Hongkong upside down yesterday. It sent two ships aground. Below is one of them the Malaya Fir which was washed up on the side of the new Kai Tak run- way. And it plunged overturned cars into the sea which its pelting rain created in many streets of the Colony. This picture shows an abandoned car lying outside the Peninsula car-park in Nathan Road, blown over by the hurricane force' winds.-China Mail Photos:
