SEA FLEA TO BE GIVEN
TEST FOR LONG JAUNT
French Hydro-glider, Which Hops
From Wave to Wave, to Make
African Trip.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MARSEILLE, France. March 22.--
Exhaustive tests will be made in the
vicinity Of Marseille before the hydro
glider called the Sea Flea is ready
for it's proposed attempt to skim the
ocean surface from Oran, Algeria. to
Dakar, Senegal. on the west coast of
Africa. and thence to Buenos Aires.
The hydro-glider has been designed
by M. de Gasenko. He has not re-
vealed the details of his invention, but
it is understood the machine is not
quite like the ordinary hydro-glider as
known in America.
1t moves in long jumps from the
tops Of waves, and thereby derives its
name.
The present model is the twenty
sixth; it has been quite successful in
comparatively smooth water tests. but
it's action in Atlantic seaways has not
been tried out.
