Merriman, Wheeling brokers, who in announcing the pro- jected flight, said they were spokes- men for backers of the venture. They said plans called for a take- oft from Langin Tleld, near Wheel- ing, to Roosevelt Field, N. Y., as the first leg of the journey.

Hill, pilots of Old Glory, said they merely were awalting a west wind of 20 miles velocity before starting on their planned flight to Rome and back. A wind of that velocity is necessary at the take-oft they said, to permit the heavily laden plane to rise. Final Tests Made Final instrument tests are being made by Capt. Terry B.
