ABSTRACT:
This disclosure pertains to a dart, having a suction cup at one end thereof and a stabilizing fin additionally serving as a handle at the other end. A cavity, affixed to the proximal end of the suction cup contains a ball and communicates to a hollow flexible tubing, utilized as a shaft, interconnecting the wing end and the suction cup end of the apparatus. A plurality of holes pass through the walls at the proximal end of the cavity and communicate air, by way of the flexible tubing, to a whistling apparatus, disposed at the proximal end of the tubing. The ball creates a tamping force which insures a better grasp between the suction cup and the target surface against which it is propelled. When the ball is disposed within the cavity at a location adjacent the proximal end thereof, the holes are sealed effectively silencing the whistling apparatus.
