MONOPLANE |S
 W|NG|NC WAY
 MAINE, ROME
MAKING GOOD PROGRESS AT BEGINNING OF LONG
 OCEAN FLIGHT

OLD ORCHARD, Maine, July 8, Successful in their third attempt to take off from the beach, Roger Williams and Lewis Yancey, pre- sumably, are winging their way toward Rome in the monoplane Pathfinder"
 There is a possibility that the flight might be considered in the nature of a test flight as Yancey told Ben Gebor, his mech anic, that if a careful check of gasoline the first few hours show ed the plane was using too much gas they would return.
 The start was in contrast to the other two when the plane was wrecked. Lieutenant Melka, coast guard amphibian pilot, reported he had followed the Pathfinder the first 100 miles and said it was making good progress.
 Yancey, a master mariner, was to make temperature readings and their observations during the flight to aid meteorologists fore casting of Atlantic weather con- ditions.
 The flier estimated the distance to Rome at 5,7OO miles and ex- pected to reach there with in 45 to 50 hours; favorable winds will aid the plane although fog would be met until 1000 miles out.
