Sea horses by air
(N.Z. Press Association) NAPIER, Dec. 1. Eight pairs of New Zealand sea horses were today flown from the Napier Aquarium to America. The sea horses, most of which were caught by Napier Harbour Board divers, were sent to the Marineland of the Pacific, in Los Angeles. The manager of the aquarium (Mr G. L. Dine) said New Zealand sea horses grew about 12 inches long, but the American variety reached only about four inches, although it was more colourful.
