Résumé 1. Newsreel story entitled "On a Flying Fish at 71 miles per hour". Alexander Graham Bell at the wheel of his hydrofoil with a young boy seated beside him; another man climbs out; several shots of the hydrofoil speeding toward and away from the camera; and the shoreline of Baddeck Lake as seen from the speeding craft being piloted by F.W.
