STORM CRIPPLES SHIP
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE LONG TOW TO ABERDEEN (Australian and N.Z. Press Association) Reed. 11 a.m. * LONDON, Sunday. The Norwegian steamer Oleaarvold, a ship without wireless, was towed 350 miles to Aberdeen, after drifting helplessly in the Atlantic for 29 days. Terrific storms carried away her propeller. The crew was reduced to living on the wheat cargo and all the water was exhausted. They sent up all their rockets without their being observed by passing ships. At last they were seen by a trawler.
