A Steamer Launched In A Gale -- A new 15, 000-ton steam ship met her first gale a minute after she was launched on the Clyde at Glasgow. She is the British India Steam Navigation Company's Uganda and she is pictured here as she is swept broadways across the river by the first 'big blow' of the gales that swept Scotland with winds up to 65 and 120 miles per hour. Just as the Uganda glided down the skipway, winds caught her. The tugs had not yet linked up. She was blown, bow first, back on to the end of the launching ways and remained jammed in the position for 20 minutes before being freed. January 16, 1952. (Photo by Reuterphoto).
