Diving apparatus tested by ex navy diver near Stoe

A device devised by M. Mavrles Permer, a former Freers navy member, was demonstrated today in Stoe. The system uses a tube from the mouth connected to a topside air supply and a large buoyed pig as a surface supply. Permer descended twice for over ten minutes each time, tracing the seabed by air bubbles. The respiration stayed normal after ascent, and fitting the apparatus takes ten seconds, far quicker than standard heavy diving gear.
