D ear Sir:
interested in
I anya, m em ber of "N icap" and am  very m uch 
U . F.O (Flying Saucers)
Several weeks ago a fellow em ployee received a 
letter (business) from  A rizona with a stam p on the back (see 
enclosed)
Being interested in U . F.O 's I asked for the stam p 
& sent $3.00 for the 12 issues of A FSCA .
H aving received & read m y first issue I feel it isn't 
just what it appears on the surface. I can’t say just why, but with 
m y lim ited idea of how com m unists operate it strikes m e it is backed 
by them .
M y reason for writing this is that I consider m yself 
a true A m erican, I am  told m y ancestors go back to a G r G r G r 
G randm other who was an Indian Squaw & I'm  proud of it. If, by 
writing for this A FSCA R eport, m y nam e could in anyway be aligned 
with the com m unist party, I would like to know if there is any way I 
can get things straightened out.
I m ay be all wrong about m y interpretation of this 
report but I'd like to be sure since I expect I will get the other issues 
as they com e up. 9S/ V
I will be 63 yrs old in a few days. M y husband passed 
away 4-30-65 I have worked as M gr of R eins D ept for the N . H . Ins

SPECIAL AFSCA CONVENTION M ESSAGE
BR IG H T W O R LD  IN H A N D S O F SA U CER  M O VEM EN T
(Editor's N ote: This special m essage was 
received from  M aster Kalen-Li R etan (head of the 
planet Korendor, about 400 light years distant) on 
M ay 4, 1966 via special directional short-wave radio 
by Bob R enaud, the young electronic-technician whose 
rem arkable story we printed in issues #18, 19,20,21, 
-»=, and which will be continued in our next issue. 
Since Bob's initial radio contact in 1961, he has 
talked with the crew of a spacecraft as he watched 
them  on his special TV screen in his hom e — and 
eventually m et his contacts in-person; visited their 
undersea and underground bases on our planet; was 
taken aboard m any of their spaceships; and was 
actually allowed to pilot two of their sm all scout 
craft — one on a short solo flight.)
"Kalo (H ello), friends. W e will get directly to 
the point of our m essage to you. Frankly, we are 
appalled at the state of Earth at present. D espite our 
constant warnings and even our actual intervention in 
som e instances, the condition upon your planet grows 
— steadily worse.
O ne subject on everyone's lips these days is 
Vietnam . From  a little civil war, it has grown 
steadily and inexorably into a full scale conflict 
between the world's three m ajor powers: the U nited 
States, the Soviet U nion, and Com m unist China.
M any influential people have used the approach 
of patriotism  and love of G od and Country to twist 
decent hum an feelings into dangerous channels of 
thought and action. W ith their charges of treason and 
sym pathy with the enem y, they have aroused a good 
portion of the populace to a state of fear, distrust, 
and hatred of those who seek peace and love. U nfor­
tunately, because som e unconventional individuals 
have been associated with the peace m ovem ent, that 
entire operation has been seriously hindered.
Your governm ent is a m ilitary puppet, a m ere 
parrot of the m onstrosity that is the M ilitary-Indus­
trial com plex. Your senators, except for a few, are 
robots, speaking what they are told to say.
Your President is, unfortunately, a pawn of 
their needs and dem ands. W e have contacted him  
several tim es concerning the state of affairs, and he 
has said that he could do nothing to change them , for 
if he were to speak out against the A sian conflict, he 
would be rem oved. This is what happened to the late 
M r. Kennedy who, in his great hum anitarianism , was 
reluctant to sacrifice his ideals and his visions for 
the sake of the M ilitary Industrial octopus. H e paid 
the suprem e penalty for his efforts in behalf of
hum anity.
M ake no m istake. Your governm ent is not in the 
W hite H ouse or the Congress. IT IS IN TH E PEN TA ­
G O N , A N D  IN TH E H EA D QU A R TER S O F TH E VA ST 
"D EFEN SE"-O R IEN TED  IN D U STR IES. It is TH EY, 
not the President or the Congressm en, who run the 
U nited States. The facade governm ent is m erely to 
allay undue alarm  or suspicion of the people.
Exam ine another aspect of the A sian war, the 
ECO N O M IC side. D o you recall that, in the stock 
reports just recently, the D ow-Jones average 
dropped sharply BECA U SE O F A  R U M O R  TH A T 
N O R TH VIETN A M  H A D  M A D E A PEA CE BID ? D oes 
the staggering im plication of this news evade you? 
Stock prices suffering a heavy loss because of a 
rum or that peace m ight com e to pass!
This thought is m ost distressing. Your econom y 
relies so heavily upon war and destruction, that if it 
were to stop, TH E U N ITED  STA TES ECO N O M Y 
W O U LD  SU FFER  A M A SSIVE D EPR ESSIO N ! Your 
m oney system  would collapse like a house of cards. 
M illions would be unem ployed, sick, hungry and 
hom eless. Trem endous industrial com plexes would 
close their doors.
The utterly appalling fact is this: W A R  IS 
PR O FITA BLE. H ighly so! Every m ajor conflict has 
been accom panied by a strong peak in your m onetary 
prosperity. Peace has usually been econom ically 
painful!
A fter W orld W ar 1, the nation coasted for a while 
upon the fat put on during the boom  of the war years. 
In 1929, the bottom  fell out. A fter the Korean W ar, 
in the 1950's cam e another recession. W hat com es 
after Vietnam ? N o one knows, and no one wants to 
find out. The war in Vietnam  is bringing an unheard- 
of degree of affluence in the U nited States. W hy kill 
a good thing by ending the war ? The philosopy, in 
essence, is this: It is econom ically expedient to send 
m ilitary forces to Vietnam  and elsewhere in A sia in 
order to wage war, because in doing so, the U nited 
States' econom y is bolstered and m aintained at a high 
level of prosperity; hum an life is secondary to the 
preservation of econom ic well-being!
It is thus evident that, unless a drastic change is 
m ade in the structure of your econom y, war will 
never end because the M ilitary-Industrial com plex 
W O N 'T LET IT!
M any of you fear Com m unism . W here did that 
fear com e from , I ask you? From  within yourself? 
N O ! It was brainwashed into you by the M ilitary- 
Industrial com plex. W ho controls all your news 
m edia? The governm ent and the advertisers. W ho, 
then, is in a position to dictate what shall be printed9

O U R  N EW  N A M E: O ur m agazine, form erly 
called "U FO International", has now becom e "Flying 
Saucers International", which we feel to be a m ore 
appropriate title, since Flying Saucers are no longer 
U nidentified Flying O bjects as far as we are concern­
ed. Flying Saucers have becom e a serious issue 
with thinking people all over the world. W e believe 
that m ost of the objects which have been sighted have 
been of extraterrestrial origin, controlled by intelli­
gent beings who, in form , are very m uch like us. 
Therefore, we hope you will understand our reasons 
for changing titles, and that you will continue to 
enjoy reading our publication under its new banner.

D ELLA LA R SO N , who for over a decade was the 
guiding light and m ain instigator of Flying Saucer 
m eetings and activities in the San Francisco Bay 
A rea, passed away on O ctober 25, 1965. She was 
70 years old. She will be rem em bered for her 
energetic and enthusiastic dedication to the goals of 
the Flying Saucer cause, as well as for the highly 
successful annual N orthern California Space Craft 
Conventions which she organized for nine years. 
(D ella, we salute you!)
M A X M ILLER , form er publisher of the now- *
defunct "Saucers" m agazine, and author of "Flying f 
Saucers: Fact or Fiction" (now out of print), has a *
new role. H e is now editor-publisher of "R eal" m ag­
azine which m ay be found on the newstands for 50£. 
The A ugust '66 issue devotes about half of its space to 
the Flying Saucer subject and will be well worth your 1 
investigation. |
W ILBU R  M ILLER , one of the early researchers 
in the Flying Saucer M ovem ent, passed away on 
M arch 5, 1966. H e was known for his fine channel 
contacts with several Space Beings, including M onka 
of M ars. H e also was the co-author — with his wife, 
Evelyn — of the book "W e of the N ew D im ension." 
A lthough he was a native of M issouri he had, in 
recent years, been a resident of Los A ngeles and of 
M orongo Valley, Calif. (G ood journey, W ill!)
H O PE TR O XELL, founder of the School of 
Thought, now situated in Independence, Calif. (P. O . 
Box 458), reported recently that the neighboring 
towns of Bishop and Lone Pine had partial blackouts 
during an evening channel (teltpathic) session she was 
having with the Space Brothers. The lights in Inde­
pendence went out com pletely for several m inutes by 
a gradual fade-out, and then cam e on again in the 
sam e m anner. D uring this tim e, the Space Being 
speaking through H ope said to those present: "Be not 
afraid. W e are guardians of the race. Protection 
will be given to those in the area."
H A L W ILCO X m ade a fine guest appearance on 
the Joe Pyne TV Show, A pril 30, 1966. H al passed 
the lie-detector test with flying colors and conducted 
him self with dignity and fortitude, which isn't always 
easy on the Joe Pyne Show. D uring the test, H al 
stated that he had taken a saucer ride to visit the 
second planet from  the star, A lpha Centauri. I
M . I. N . D . stands for M ental Investigations of 
N ew D im ensions, an organization recently form ed by 
W esley and JoN ell Batem an. Their activities include 
m eetings, courses and public appearances. They 
have dem onstrated on several occassions for groups 
of up to 20 people, their ability to telepathically 
direct the m ovem ents of visable spacecraft overhead.

H ELEN & G A BR IEL G R EEN contributed their |
bit to the education of nearly 300, 000 young people to 
the saucer subject at the Teen-A ge Fair, A pril 1 thru * 
10 at the H ollywood Palladium , where A FSCA  had a 
booth to exhibit saucer photos, show slides, and to 
dissem inate inform ation. W e handed out over 13, 000 
brochures and saucer photo post cards, and talked 
ourselves hoarse answering questions for 12 hours 
each day. G abriel also m ade over a dozen radio and 
TV appearances and interviews during the Fair.
W e also had another booth at the N ational 
A viation and A erospace Exhibition at the Pan Pacific 
A uditorium , M ay 17 thru 22. Yes, we've been busy!
The M ilitary-Industrial com plex, by opinion-control 
through the use of psycho-politics (brainwashing by 
controlled news m anagem ent).
Consider this: In order to survive, a com m er­
cial m edium , such as a newspaper or m agazine, 
requires a vast am ount of advertising revenue. The 
m ere subscription fees will not cover the costs. 
Thus, they depend.for their continued existence upon 
m oney paid by advertisers. Suppose, then, that the 
editor of a certain newspaper decides that he is 
opposed to the Vietnam  policy, and says so in his 
paper. The advertisers sim ply say to the editor, 
"Either you toe the m ark and print what we want, or 
we'll withdraw our advertising. "
Such pressures are a fact of life. The newsm en 
are torn between their higher devotion to Truth, and 
also to the lower level of their physical needs. 
R ather than jeopardize their security and their 
futures they, of course, subm it m eekly to power. 
Their actions are fully understandable, and we do not 
hold them  responsible.
W e throw the blam e directly on the M ilitary- 
Industrial com plex which, by its underhanded dealing, 
threats of force, and econom ic pressure and retali­
ation, has crushed the spirit of A m erican journalism  
and turned it from  a dynam ic m otivating force in 
A m erican life into a weak-willed, subservient 
m outhpiece for the power-m asters. W e blam e them  
for the death of journalistic freedom  and individuality!
O ne m ore com m ent on this topic: M ay I say that 
a better econom ic system  is already known to the 
leaders of the Flying Saucer M ovem ent. It is the 
system  known as U niversal Econom ics. A s we have 
said over and over before, it is the non-m oney 
econom ic system  which M U ST be applied on your 
planet before you can start to resolve m ost of your 
m ajor problem s and thus begin to establish a highly- 
advanced, non-destructive state of existance on 
Earth, such as we of m ore advanced planets have 
enjoyed for so long. IN VESTIG A TE TH IS SYSTEM  
to evaluate it for its m erit — then A CT to apply it! 
YO U R  VER Y SU R VIVA L A S A  CIVILIZA TIO N M A Y

Perhaps this is an opportune tim e to clarify a 
few questions which have been asked about us.
D o we of Korendor work with the local planets 
in our operations? Yes, we do cooperate with them  
a great deal. H owever, our work on Earth is 
relatively independent of the local planets. W e have 
m any tim es overstepped what is considered to be the 
lim it of interference upheld by Venus, M ars, and 
other planets. This has caused a good deal of debate 
between them  and us. Each tim e we have pointed out 
that we of Korendor are basically pragm atic in nature. 
A lthough we do respect the laws of self-destiny, we 
feel also that where stepping in is required to prevent 
disaster, it is our right and our duty to do so.
W e have interfered in such places as the U nited 
States, China, R ussia, and on a large scale in 
Vietnam . This has caused no end of consternation in 
the local Tribunal of Planets. W e are sym pathetic to 
their viewpoint, but we do feel that their policy is 
lim ited in its capacity to achieve the desired goals. 
It is our opinion that one cannot stand on the sidelines 
and achieve any noticeable results.
A s I have said before, we have infiltrated your 
planet. W e are directly involved in Earth's life. 
You m ight say that you have been invaded — a strong 
way of phrasing it, to be sure, but nonetheless 
factual, since we walk and work am ongst you daily!
W e have been asked about our physical appear­
ance. W e are hum anoid, indistinguishable from  
yourselves, except that in our natural form  we aver­
age three to four feet in height. Every other dim en­
sion is proportionately scaled, so that photographs of 
us would not reveal our origin in any way.
W e are able to increase our height while on 
Earth through a technical process related to telepor­
tation. It is concerned with recording the atom ic and 
m olecular structures of our bodies, and then repro­
ducing them  identically on a larger scale. D iffer­
ences in our internal structure are adjusted by the 
com puter which controls the reproducer.
O ur m ost com m on skin color is a little darker 
than yours, although we have skin colors which vary 
as yours do all over the Earth. U sually, however, 
we would look "tan" to you. W e are N O T green, blue, 
or heliotrope, as has been suggested!
Concerning our language, we generally use one 
of two tongues and we are fairly fam iliar with a third. 
O n Korendor itself we speak the native language, 
Korendian. It is sim ilar in m any ways to your own 
languages since it, like yours, was originally derived 
from  G alingua, one of the two universal tongues. 
The other is Solex M al, which is m ore fam iliar to 
you, since it is used by your local Solar System  
planets. It is seldom  heard now in our sector of 
space, as G alingua has replaced it alm ost com pletely.
U nlike your own, however, the Korendian- 
G alinguan speech is very rhythm ic, and has few 
sibilant sounds, such as "s" or "z". Som e of the 
sharper sounds like "c" and "k" are m inim ized. It is 
a beautiful language which is very m usical and 
pleasant to hear.
Perhaps you would be surprised to learn that 
ancient Latin was liberally taken from  G alingua. 
There are m any sim ilarities in the two languages. 
Even m odern English has roots on other worlds!
In concluding m y m essage to you, m ay I say — 
people of Earth: open up your m inds and your hearts 
to the world around you. There is so m uch to be 
learned, so m uch to be discovered. D on't waste 
precious hours and days in bigotry and ignorance, 
and in senseless fighting and killing. To do so is 
truly a crim e against nature and hum anity.
A t this stage where you have the very stars 
alm ost in your grasp, how irrational and barbaric it 
is to spend futile hours warring with your brothers. 
A s an old saying on your world puts it: "A s you m ake 
your bed, so shall you lie in it." The decision does 
not seem  difficult. H ere are the alternatives: A  
world living in harm ony, justice, security and abun­
dance for all, or a world continuing to reap the 
bloody harvests that grow from  the seeds of hatred 
and m istrust. If left to their own devices, the 
m ajority of m ankind will forge onward to a destiny of 
destruction and annihilation, oblivious to the danger 
in their actions. They are short-sighted; they care 
little for the future.
It is you N ew A ge people, dedicated to the wel­
fare of all m ankind, and having the vision and under­
standing of the ways to build the better world of 
tom orrow, who m ust lead the way. You have the 
future in YO U R  hands, if you will but shoulder your 
responsibilities. The Flying Saucer M ovem ent, as 
you call it, belongs to you. Support it in every way 
possible. H elp it to grow until it is influential 
thoughout your world. G o out into the world and 
guide the m isguided, find the lost, and recover the 
strays. W e are behind you all the way. A s we have 
said m any tim es before, we will take two steps for 
every one that you take to help yourselves.
The tim e has com e for nations to "bury the 
hatchet", to clasp hands, and plunge into the future 
together — in co-operation toward m utual goals.
Look to the heavens and realize that your destiny 
is not in bleak atom ic desolation, but in the m agnifi­
cent greatness that you can achieve if you will but 
work for it. Choose the right path and you will soon 
qualify to join with us in our journeys am ongst the 
stars.

Six Teens Tell of 'Chase' by Buzzing, Lighted UFOs
By R O BER T KISTLER  
D enver Post Staff W riter
Six picnicking D enver teen-agers reported Thursday 
night they were chased for an hour by unidentified flying 
objects in D aniels Park south of D enver in D ouglas County.
The high school students—three boys, three girls—told 
Police Chief John C. M aclvor of Littleton they witnessed un­
explained, apparently “hovering” red, blue and white lights 
jrccorhpsnied by a series of pulsating buzzing sounds which 
began about 9:30 p.m .
The teen-agers, all 17, who described what they saw 
hesitantly, were described by M aclvor as being “sincere, 
cold sober and a little shaken by what they saw.”
’ The group appeared at M aclvor’s office shortly before 
11 p.m .
“I was real skeptical at first,” M aclvor said. “But each 
of the kids called their parents—who knew they’d been pic­
nicking—to tell them  where they were.
“I don’t know what they saw,” he said, “but I’m  con­
vinced they saw som ething.”
A lan Scrivner, son of M r. and M rs. R ussell Scrivner of 
1040 Jackson St., a junior at East H igh School, gave the 
following account:
Scrivner and five friends drove to D aniels Park, 10-12 
.m iles southeast of Littleton, about 6:30 p.m . They parked the 
car and walked about a city block down a sm all incline and 
up again to a stone shelter built in the side of a hill.
The group was sitting around a fire they’d built inside 
when they heard “what sounded like a m an walking on top 
of the shelter.” The roof can easily be reached on foot from  
the slanting hillside.
Scrivner and D on O tis, an East H igh junior, son of M r. and 
M rs. Elm o O tis, 1939 Fairfax St., stood on top of the shelter 
and shined a flashlight into the surrounding area. They 
saw nothing.
The two—leaving the others behind in the shelter—m ade 
their way through the underbrush back to the road. “I 
thought som eone was m essing around m y car,” Scrivner 
said.
“Just as we got to the car,” he said, “both of us heard 
a,real weird buzzing noise. It seem ed to be all around us.”
A s they reached the car, the youths saw “two red lights 
—about a foot each in diam eter—about two feet off the 
ground and parallel to each other.” There was a white light 
in the center of the reds.
The lights, about 20 feet apart, appeared to be in a field 
on the far side of the road “about 25 yards” from  the 
car. The two, thinking “it m ight be two parked cars or 
som ething,” crouched in the ditch and waited.
A bout three m inutes later, they again approached the 
car. They saw and heard nothing. They returned to the 
shelter.
The four in the shelter said that, while the two had 
been gone, they’d heard the sam e “footstep-like” sound on 
the roof again. Two of the girls said they’d also seen a “tall
m an, who m ight’ve been wearing a raincoat,” dart through 
the light showing through the window into the area. They 
also said they heard his footsteps.
The group decided to leave.
A s they were walking back to the car, O tis turned and 
saw “a real bright flash behind the hill over the shelter 
and it lit up the whole area.”
Bu zzing 'All Arou nd '
The om inous buzzing began again. N o direction, “just 
all around — never heard anything like it in m y life,” 
Scrivner said. Shortly afterward as the group neared the 
car, they all agreed they saw the sam e thing:
Two blue lights hovering low in the sky, about three- 
quarters of a m ile away. The lights were stationary and 
went from  bright to dim . A third — white — light appeared 
to rise up and down between the blues and “lit up the 
area.”
N o outline —other than the lights—was visible.
They perched atop the car’s hood and watched the blue 
and white lights “off and on” for about a half hour. The 
lights appeared in back of the shelter — in the opposite di­
rection from  the first lights seen in the field.
Twenty m inutes after the blues appeared, another set— 
these, blues with a bright red in the center — appeared “off 
to the left of the others and about a block away.” These 
hovered near the ground. The buzzing continued.
The night was overcast with no stars visible but “real

clear beneath the clouds where the lights were.” A s the third 
set of lights hovered, the youths agreed they could see a dark 
outline between the lights.
“It looked .like a black football—the blue lights on each 
end — with an orange on top, like a bubble. The red light 
was at the bottom . It didn’t m ove up and own, but did cast 
a beam  of light at the ground,” Scrivner said.
'Car Did n't Work Right'
The youngsters piled in the car — a 1954 Ford — and 
started out of the park.
“You’ll all think we’re nuts,” Scrivner said later, “but 
m y car didn’t work right. I could get it up to about 30 (m iles 
an hour) then it would cut out like som eone turned the 
ignition off. Then it would start up again.”
Scrivner also com plained that the radio was “playing 
nothing but static” while they left the im m ediate area of the 
shelter. >
A s they drove off, two of the girls and O tis saw what 
appeared to be a “large, oval circle of light — it covered 
the whole road — following the car.”
M ary Zolar, daughter of M r. and M rs. Jack A . Zolar, 
945 Fairfax St., a senior at East, was in the back seat with 
two others.
“It was huge and glowing,” she said, “and cam e right 
up to the back of the car, then went out. It lasted about 
three seconds.”
A s the car left the park area, it quit “m issing out” and 
the radio played norm ally, Scrivner said.
Calle d She riff's Office
The youths stopped at a service station and called the 
A rapahoe County sheriff’s office, then went to M aclvor’s 
office.
M aclvor said “one of the im pressive things about their 
story” was all six didn’t claim  to have seen the exact sam e 
thing at the sam e tim e.
“A nd a couple of them  are real shook up,” he added.
The operations officer at Lowry A ir Force Base said 
early Friday he’d received a call apparently from  the A rap­
ahoe County sheriff, reporting the sightings.
O thers in the group were M ichael Sim ington, son of M r. 
and M rs. Jam es E. Sim ington, 773 Jackso nSt., a junior at 
East; Patty R etherford, daughter of M r. and M rs. N eal R eth-

and Kaye H urley, daughter of M r. and M rs. Lloyd H urley, 
5736 M ontview Blvd., a junior at M achebeuf H igh School.
Two other U FO sightings were reported in the state, one 
in D elta and the other in D enver.
D elta Police Chief D . C. M organ, patrolm an Earnest 
M arkley and reporter D on Prather of the D elta Independent 
watched an object which was “glowing, green in color and 
very bright.” The m en observed it for alm ost two hours be­

In D enver, Terry D atz, 19, a U niversity of D enver stu­

An 11-ye ar-old Wichita boy has joine d  
the ranks of those across the nation who 
have re porte d se eing "flying sau ce rs"

Johnny Sparks said that e arly Frid ay

that m ad e a hu m m ing noise and we re  
bigge r than cars. He is the son of M r. 
and M rs. Calvin Coolid ge Thom as, 9 16 
N . Topeka.
He re is the story the way he told it:
“I had be e n u pstairs to m y m othe r’s

“It we nt m m m m m m m —like a flying 
top. I started to go back to be d whe n 
I he ard it. Then I looke d out the wind ow 
and I saw it.
“I saw this flying obje ct that pe ople 
have be e n talking abou t. It had colore d  
lights and was spinning.
“It was bigge r than a car and the  
colors were pu rple and re d and orange 
and gre e n.
“WHEN  I SAW THEM  at first, it was 
u p in the sky. Then I saw the m  laying 
right by m y wind ow.
“It d id n’t look like it had any wind ows 
and it land e d like an airplane. Whe n it 
started land ing it had legs and pu t the m  
on the grou nd .
“The top part spu n, bu t the re st d id n't. 
It was like a big fat d ou ghnu t. The top 
had som e thing like a cap that ke pt going 
rou nd and round .
"The se cond one looke d ju st like the 
first one . One cam e d own and the othe r 
cam e u p. The othe r one just sat and  
spu n, too.
“I was too scare d to wake anyone u p.

He said  his m othe r said  it m ight be the 
Air Force “playing a trick.”
N one of the ne ighbors re porte d any­

land ing, and the police d ispatcher said  
the y had had no re ports.
HOWEVER, JOHN N Y and his m othe r

scatte re d into the d rive way.
Also, sand had swirle d into the d rive ­

Johnny said he was not anxiotis to

The boy e stim ate d that e ach sauce r

M RS. THOM AS ADM ITTED she was a

There's a cockeyed feeling in the world today 
That power politics is here to stay. 
But China, R ussia and the U .S.A .
Boy—don’t let them  fool you!
Take a look at this world of ours, 
Just one m ud ball in the sea of stars. 
O ther planets have no color-bars, 
'Cause they’ve got perspective.
Yanks and R us kies put m en into space, 
But it's all a m ad politician’s race, 
O ne-up-m anship in this Year of G race. 
It m akes you giggle.
The population stands and stares, 
W hile m en in capsules explore upstairs. 
W hy we can't even m anage our own affairs! 
Som e cheek—colonization!
Besides, they’ve got people on Venus and M ars.
They got lads and lasses and m a’s and pa’s.
A nd they've got better transport than four-wheel cars. 
H ave you ever seen ’em ?
Those Flying Saucers whisking through our skies 
M ust take som e power to m ake them  rise.
But governm ent departm ents just hide their eyes, 
A nd call them  m eteors !
W ith all the lies that they print and shout, 
The general public’s got its work cut out — 
Figuring what it’s all about.
But just you keep on trying.
I suppose you know why I’m  telling you this, 
So you won’t shriek or shake your fist 
W hen you discover M artians do exist! 
They’re real nice fellows.
I know, ’cause I m et one a week ago!
H is ship cam e down for an hour or so.
H e talked to m e, but then he had to go.
R eal interested I was!
G ot brothers on Venus and Saturn, it seem s — 
Fly their ships on m agnetic beam s.
They wear one piece suits—you can’t see any seam s; 
But apart from  that — they’re just like us!

AGE SONGS by M ollie Thom pson
SPA CE-TA LK
The powers that be will tell us we’re alone. 
They’ll tell us that in space we are unique; 
O n this little desert island we call Earth 
The hum an race is just a kind of freak. 
W hen we send our envoys into space 
There’ll be a sm ile upon this planet's face, 
'Cause brother, right out there—I’m  telling you, 
There’s another hum an race; it’s very true!
They’re a very, very peaceful crowd, 
For they just never go to war.
A nd they cannot interfere, 
This is by U niversal Law. 
The spacem an’s m essage to us all 
Is based on how to banish fear, 
A nd if we only understand, 
W e will find it heaven here.
W hile we m ust rely on war, 
W e never will be happy here. 
W hile this world's econom y 
Is based on hardship, strife and fear. 
H ow do they live without a war 
In their lands of m ilk and honey? 
They don’t need econom y, 
Because they don’t use any m oney!
They cannot give us any ships, 
So we m ust try and build our own. 
But they are waiting right out there. 
O h, m y friends, we’re not alone! 
H ow do they go at such great speed, 
A nd vanish then without prediction? 
Because they use free energy, 
A nd there isn't any friction.
Brother have you seen their ships ?
Sisters have you seen them  glow, 
A s they dance and hover in the sky, 
A nd m ake our fastest jets look slow?

New ‘F ireball’ Raises 
An Old Question: D o 
flying Saucers Exist?
* * *
Californian, W ho ‘Talks’ to M en 
From  the Stars, Says ‘Yes’;
Scientists A ssail A ir Force |
By El l iot Carl son
Staff Reporter of The  Wal l S tre e t Jou rnal
They’re back. The latest was sighted a few 
nights ago by residents and pilots in the north­
ern tier of states and Canada. They described 
it as an orange fireball. The A ir Force at 'first 
called it an unidentified flying object, but now 
thinks it was a m eteor. Som e other people 
called it a flying saucer.
Several people say they saw the fireball land 
Thursday night. A n 11-year-old boy in Lorain, 
I O hio, says he watched it drop into the woods 
, near his hom e. A wom an in Elyria, O hio, 10 
i m iles away, claim s she saw it plunge into a 
i vacant lot across the street from  her hom e. 
O thers say they saw it streak into Lake M ichi­
gan. Scientists and police com bed a 75-acre 
area near Pittsburgh after a wom an there saw 
the object crash to earth “sm oldering.”
(D espite these witnesses and search efforts, 
however, the thing has yet to be found. In this 
regard, it is like all other unidentified flying 
objects, or U FO s, which are m ysterious be­
cause they are seen but neve? found-
W hatever it tum a pul to be—m eteor, satel­
lite .part, hoax, weather oddity or m an from  
M ars—it appeared in a banner year for such 
objects, which alm ost disappeared from  public 
consciousness following a rash of reports of 
flying saucers in the m id-1950s: “W e’ve had 
m dre reports this year than in any year since 
1957, when we had m ore than a thousand,” says 
a spokesm an for Project Blue Book, the A ir 
1 Force program  set up in 1948 to evaluate re­
ports of the phenom ena.
Visitors From Outer Space
N obody knows what the objects are or where 
they com e from , but there is no lack of theories 
—or of controversy. The A m algam ated Flying 
Saucer Clubs of A m erica, Inc., is sure the 
“saucers” com e from  outer space. H ow do 
they know? The “space people” have told 
them .
N ot only that, says G abriel G reen, who 
heads the California group, “space people give 
contactees inform ation about life on other 
planets and solutions to insurm ountable prob­
lem s on our planet.” O ne suggestion allegedly 
m ade to M r. G reen in 1960 by a visit from  A l­
pha Centauri, 'a nearby star: R un for Presi­
dent as a write-in candidate. (H e cam paigned 
briefly, then decided not to run.)
The N ational Investigations Com m ittee on 
A erial Phenom ena ((N ICA P), a private re­
search organization in W ashington, doesn’t 
hold with that theory. “W e reject reports of 
noble beings landing on earth to solve all our 
problem s,” says a spokesm an. So m en from  
M ars are a lot of bunk? N ot necessarily, says 
the com m ittee. It believes $ Congressional in­
vestigation would prove that U FO s “are real 
physical objects . . . under the control of living 
beings.” A s an afterthought, the spokesm an 
says:- “There are a trem endous num ber of ego­
m aniacs who have been able to appoint them ­

fused.”
O ne m an who’s not confused at all is Charles 
A . M aney, professor em eritus of physics and 
m athem atics at D efiance, College in O hio. Says 
the professor: “These objects are unquestion­
ably from  outer space?’ H e bases his reason­
ing on the fact that the objects often interfere 
with local electrical circuits, indicating to him  
they have “a m eans of propulsion associated 
with m agnetic fields.”
“There’s Nothing To It”
Such notions are scoffed at by astronom ers, 
hcweve^. “A ll this is im agination outside the

exam ined A ir Force cases and discovered that 
U FO s all have sim ple explanations in term s 
of well-known natural phenom ena. There’s not 
one cause, but hundreds. Som e are quite spec­
tacular, such as reflections from  ice crystals or 
bright stars, searchlights on clouds or high­
flying spider webs. But to som e people the exis­
tence of flying saucers is a m atter of religious 
fanaticism ,” he says.
But M r. M enzel reads m ore into the A ir 
Force data than does the A ir Force itself. O f 
the 9,786 U FO reports m ade to the A ir Force 
since 1947, 673 rem ain classified as (“unidenti­
fied,” a spokesm an says. H e defines this cate­
gory as containing sightings whose pertinent 
data can’t be correlated with any known object 
or phenom ena.
The spokesm an quickly adds: “W e have nei­
ther received nor discovered any evidence that 
proves the existence of intraspace m obility or 
extraterrestrial life and we continue to extend 
an open invitation to anyone who feels he pos­
sesses any evidence of such vehicles operating 
in our atm osphere.” A nd he states: “N o U FO  
report evaluated by the A ir Force has ever 
given arty indication of a threat to our national 
security.”
The A ir Force’s approach disturbs som e 
people, however. “The A ir Force should adm it 
there are natural phenom ena taking place un­
der our noses of which we know nothing,” says 
I. M . Levitt, director of Feis Planetarium  at the 
Franklin Institute in Philadelphia. H e adds: 
“The A ir Force is trying to explain som ething 
that isn’t susceptible to explanation.”
R obert R isser, director of the O klahom a Sci­
ence and A rt Foundation planetarium  at O kla­
hom a City, believes “the A ir Force m ust have 
had its star-finder upside down during A ug­
ust,” when several reports of flying saucers 
were ascribed by the A ir Force to sightings of 
stars. “The constellations of Taurus and O rion 
weren’t visible at the tim e the A ir Force said 
the sightings were m ade. I think they m ade an 
error.”
The whole problem , says J. A llen H yntek, 
Chairm an of the departm ent of astronom y at 
N orthwestern U niversity and a consultant to 
the A ir Force, is that the m atter should be 
studied m ore thoroughly.
“Pressures to conform ity in academ ic cir­
cles and fear of ridicule have slowed the 
study,” according to R obert H all, a sociology 
professor at the U niversity of Illinois in Chi­
cago.
“The possibility of life on M ars is an un­
popular thing to consider these days,” says 
Frank B. Salisbury, a professor of plant phy­
siology at Colorado State U niversity. A t the 
risk of being unpopular, M r. Salisbury told the 
fifth annual Space Conference this year that 
“there m ay be som e natural explanation of
these things, but a tentative 
considered is that U FO s are 
^fars.”
Fueling the flying-sauqer
possibility to be 
spaceships from
controversy has
been the large num ber of reports from  what 
m any people consider reliable witnesses—pilots 
with technical backgrounds. Since 1947, m ore 
than 100 private, m ilitary and com m ercial pilots 
have reported spotting strange objects in the 
sky, according to one study.
Pinning down such reports is difficult, how­
ever. “Som e of the boys did report things they 
couldn’t identify a few years ago,” says a 
spokesm an for A m erican A irlines. “But our 
pilots haven’t m ade a report for years.”
N evertheless, “we have on file a great num ­
ber of reports from  pilots who don’t want their

what they’ve seen, claim s J. B. H artanft, Jr.,

Disc-Like Object Hovers, Rises
For Two Hours East of Kettle Point
By JIM ETHER INGTON 
Free Press Sarnia Bureau
SA R N IA — A revolving ob­
ject, sighted in the sky east 
of Kettle Point last night, was 
watched for m ore than two 
hours by about 100 persons.
Lawrence Bressette, who op- 
A erates a store on the Kettle 
Point Indian R eserve, said a 
m otorist brought the object to 
his attention about 8 p.m . H e 
said he looked at it through 
binoculars and could see red, 
blue, green and white lights 
flashing from  the disc-shaped 
object.
M r. Bressette said it re-' 
m ained m otionless for about 
an hour flashing lights, then 
slowly began to rise. Cloud 
cover rolled in about 10 p.m .,
allowing only

“I’ve never

said. ‘W e all
saw it. It was low — about 200 f‘ 
or 300 feet off the ground to 1 
the east. Then it slowly began ■ 
to m ove up.”
M r. Bressette said it could 
not have been swam p gas 
which was suggested was the 
cause of unidentified ‘flying 
object sightings in the D etroit 
ajea last week.
“I’ve seen swam p gas lights. 
This was not the sam e,” he 
said. “Besides there hasn’t 
been any, swam p gas lights 
around here since before the 
war.” „
\M r. Bressette said his broth­
er, Jeffery, also reported see­
ing an object over Sarnia. This 
one stayed stationary for a 
short tim e then shot across 
the sky at a very high speed.
A n officer in control opera­
tions at Selfridge A ir Force 
Base, M ount Clem ens, M ich., 
said the Canadian sighting 
was the fourth reported to 
him  last night. The other 
three were from  the D etroit 
area.
H e said no radar reports 
had been obtained on any of 
the sightings.
M r. Bressette reported jet 
■ planes in the area at .one 
point while the group watched 
along the Lake H uron shore. 
But there was no possibility 
the object he saw was a jet.
In M ichigan new reports of

and the neighboring D etroit 
area. O thers were reported 
westward in the Lansing area.
D r. J. A llen H ynek of N orth­

“Listen . . . this sounds crazy, 
but I saw som ething in the sky. 
D o you know what it is?” This 
was the question posed to the

searching for an explanation. 
Even the police were dum b­

from  their prowl cars.
The U FO was described th^n 
as a white and garishly bright 
disk, two feet in diam eter.
A ccording to observers, the 
odd m ovem ents of the m yster­

which A ugust R oberts, a m em ­
ber of the Internationa Intelli­

Initially, when the object was

it was an official helicopter with 
a strong beacon. A few hours 
later A ir Force jets were spotted 
by police flying over the W ana-

R oberts theorized the object 
“m ight possibly have been a 
governm ent experim ent in t h e 
creation of an anti-gravity m a­
chine.”
A s yet nobody really seem s 
to know what the U FO was or 
where it cam e from . Som e say 
it is a balloon, others, m en 
from  M ars. ‘ ' •

to have seen som ething “round

Lilly H ill in Stonetown and 
Board M ountain near Sloatsburg

Theodora.
D ean N oll, assistant engineer,

“easier ways”, he said.

Head Saucerer Believes
M artians Are W atching U s
W  ho’s in All 
Those Saucers?
By Harold Scarlett
W as Jesus Christ a M artian?
“It’s hard to say,” said G abriel 
G reen thoughtfully. Then he added 
that it certainly seem s plausible.
It’s no trick at all to walk on water 
or ascend to the heavens if you have a 
M artian levitation belt around your 
waist and an anti-gravity beam to 
ride, G reen explained.
Furtherm ore, he said, the M artians 
now visiting earth on flying saucers 
are trying to save the earth’s people 
from  their own follies — just as the 
Savior was.
G reen can speak with som e au­
thority on these m asters because, he 
says, he m et and talked with a M artian 
once. A lso a four-foot m an from  the 
A lpha Centauri star system . A lso som e 
other unearthly visitors.
' SOM ETIM ES, H E said, he m et these 
flying saucer crewm en by telepathic, 
appointm ents. These were arranged 
through associates of his with tele­
pathic talents.
“A nd once in a while,” he said, “they 
would just call on the f^y ”
G reen, who lives in Lor A ngeles, is 
the head saucerer — the president — 
of the A m algam ated Flying Saucer 
Clubs of A m erica.
N ot being too telepathic, we just 
called G reen on the phone to interview 
him  about the recent rash of flying 
saucer sightings around the country.
“It is a continuation of their efforts 
to enlighten us,” G reen replied in calm  
and cultured tones.
“The current series of sightings and 
landings, I understand, will increase. 
They are not going to go away, as 
som e m em bers of our governm ent 
would like.”
W H Y DO TH EY keep buzzing down 
here and scaring people?
“W hat with nuclear proliferation 
growing, it seem s rather obvious that 
unless we start resolving the present 
problem s facing m ankind, we will 
destroy ourselves and perhaps som e of 
the universe along with us,” G reen ex­
plained.
“This is one of the prim ary reasons 
why the extra-terrestrials started m ak­
ing visitations in 1947, shortly after we 
developed this ability — to watch over 
us and if possible to im part their ad­
vanced scientific, technological and 
sociological knowledge to help us re­

solve these problem s before we destroy 
ourselves.”
G reen said he is trying to do his 
hum ble best to help them  spread that 
m essage.
“The solutions they have given,” he 
said, “deal prim arily with resolving the 
m otives for wars, expansionism and 
poverty. They hope to elim inate the 
have-not nations . . . through superior 
financing. They have an advanced eco­
nom ic system  they call U niversal 
Econom ics. The econom ics part of it is 
what I personally am  trying to trans­
m it”
H E SA ID R UEFULLY , however, 
that the saucer clubs them selves are in 
an econom ic pinch that has prevented 
needed research.
G reen said he runs the saucer clubs 
out of his own hom e, at 2004 N orth 
H oover in Los A ngeles, “to cut down 
on the overhead.” H e said there are 
clubs in 50 m ajor U .S. cities and 
abroad, with a total of about 3,500 
m em bers. H ouston has no club, he said, 
but he does have som e interested H ous­
tonians on his m ailing list.
“W e are a contact-oriented research 
group,” he said, “m eaning that m any 
of our m em bers have m ade actual
physical contact with crews of these 
craft”
G reen said he has sighted 85 to 100 
spacecraft around Los A ngeles over 
the years and has m et “half a dozen 
or so m em bers of the crews.”
B UT G R EEN B ELITTLED his own 
experiences.
“They’re so insignificant it’s hardly 
worth talking about them ,” he said. 
“Som e of our m em bers have actually 
been taken for rides in spacecraft.
“I certainly wouldn't turn down a 
ride if it were offered m e. But they’ve 
never asked m e.”
G reen said he m et the M artian by 
appointm ent at a friend’s hom e, and he 
looked “just like anybody you’d m eet 
on the street.” H e was casually 
dressed, G reen said, and wore a short­
sleeve, shim m ery, m etallic-looking 
shirt which he said would stop bullets.
A ll in all, a handsom e chap, G reen 
said.
“I felt his hair and it was quite 
coarse and worn in a V-shape down to­
ward the center of the forehead,” 
G reen said. “But I rather doubt all 
M artians wear their hair alike, any 
m ore than we do.

were really canals for distributing the 
short water supply from their polar 
regions, and that the two M artian 
m oons are really artificial satellites 
just like the R ussian astronom ers have 
supposed.”
G reen said he had m et the A lpha 
Centauri m an several tim es — once in 
the G reen hom e.
“H e was dressed ordinarily and was 
about four feet tall, although this was 
unusual. M ost of the reports of them  
are that they are norm al height or 
larger,” G reen said.
“There was that space ship that 
landed near A lbuquerque, for instance, 
with a crew of four m en and five wom ­
en. They were very beautiful, very well 
proportioned. Seven to nine feet tall.”
G reen said he had m et other inter­
stellar travelers but would “rather not 
go into the whole list.”
W here did they park their space 
ships while they were visiting him ?
“OH , SOM ETIM ES they actually 
park them  — hang them  up in the sky 
with a force field around them . Then 
they have an anti-gravity beam  and 
levitation belts they wear around the 
waist to get on down to earth.
“Through these, they can accom ­
plish such m iracles as walking on 
water and ascending into the heavens.”
G reen said he is 41 and was a 
photographer with the Los A ngeles 
Board of Education until he resigned 
in 1959 to try to help the spacem en 
save civilization.
G reen said naturally he asked to 
take the spacem en’s picture, but they 
refused and he abided by their wishes.
“A n associate of m ine once tried to 
sneak a couple of flash pictures,” he 
said, “but two tim es the flash gun 
wouldn’t fire, even though the cam era 
was in perfect working condition.

UFO Plays Tag W ith Deputies in 85-M ile Chase
R A VEN N A , O ., A pril 17 (U PI). 
—Two Portage county sheriff’s 
deputies followed a “bright cir­
cular” unidentified object Sun­
day from  A twater, 0., to Free- 
drom , Pa., a distance of 85 m iles.
D eputies D ale Spaur and W . 
L. N eff were investigating a 
routine traffic accident at 5 A .M . 
when they were alerted by 
radio to be on the lookout for 
an object beading their way.
Spaur, an A ir Force gunner 
during the Korean W ar, said the 
circular object “about 30 to 45 
feet in diam eter traveled at 
speeds from  80 to 100 m iles an 
hour.”
"It was about 1000 feet in 
the air and was extrem ely 
bright,” Spaur radioed to the
Portage county sheriff’s head­
quarters here.
“I had never seen anything 
this bright before in m y life,” 
he told D eputy R obert W ilson 
via the radio.
In Benton H arbor, M ich., a 
flying object described as so 
bright “you couldn’t look 
straight at it” was sighted early 
Sunday near the downtown sec­
tion of the city.
Three rubbish collectors said 
they jaw the object hover over 
a m otel along the St. Joseph 
R iver. The head of the crew, 
Joseph Frbaklin, said it was 
about 15 stories ,in the air, had 
a steel-like shell and looked 
“som ething like a hot. dog” in 
shape. H e said it had a brilliant
light so bright he couldn’t look 
directly at it.
Franklin and his crew report­
ed the sighting to police who also 
viewed the object.
The two deputies were joined 
in the chase at East Palestine, 
U ., just across the State line 
from Pennsylvania, by East 
Palestine Patrolm an W ayne 
H uston.
H uston said the object appear­
ed larger than an airliner and 
t aveled in a straight line. H e 
said it would change altitude 
suddenly.
“It was a funny thing,” H us­
ton said, “but when the object 
got too far ahead of us it ap­
peared to stop and wait.”
W ilson said at one tim e Spaur
reported the object, which had 
som ething like an antenna pro­
truding from  the bottom , hover­
ed above the cruiser in which 
Spaur and N eff were riding.
W ilson said that Spaur and 
N eff were questioned by an “A ir 
Force colonel” in Freedom .
(A ir Force headquarters at 
G reater Pittsburgh A irport said 
it had no report on the U FO .)
“The chase lasted about 50 
m inutes and, in that tim e, the 
object was reported seen by at 
least six or seven other depart­
m ents, both in O hio and Penn­
sylvania,” W ilson said.
N eff, a one-tim e Seabee, 
agreed with Spaur in the de­
scription of the object and add­
ed that it “had no wings.”
W ilson said the object “was 
caught by radar” in Pittsburgh. 
H e said that at least seven jets 
from  the Cleveland-area headed] 
for the object after it was re 
ported.

ted no U FO s on its radar

(A P) — R ural residents told 
of seeing a cigar-shaped ob­
ject drop from  the sky yes­
terday, and two m en said It 
caught fire and burned with­
out apparent cause.
Still another farm er In the 
sam e vicinity reported he 
heard an explosion, watched 
another unidentified flying 
object fall and picked up a
four-foot strip of what ap­
peared to be tin and alum i­

D avid D uncan, 28, W ith R a 
dlo station KG BH in M em ­
phis, related these details:
M rs. Ernest Lee, whose 
hom e is 3 m iles southeast of 
here, spotted som ething 
which looked “like two para­
chutes” hovering in the air
about 2*6 m iles distant at 
4:10 p.m .
Duncan and several 
friends tried to pursue the 
object, “cone-shaped and  
silver looking,” in a car 
and ft appeared to haft 
near the Salisbury commu­
nity 5 miles south of M em­
phis. As they drew near, 
however, it swept away at 
high speed.
J. W . H atley, a farm er in 
the Brice com m unity 21 
m iles west of here, and three 
other m en told of watching 
m inutes later as som ething 
“about 20 feet long, 4 to 8 
feet wide and shaped like a 
cigar" plunger to earth.
It bore no m arkings, they 
said, and “appeared to have 
radios and about 20 sm all 
batteries on the outside."
"It was big enough to 
carry a man. and I got the 
feeling that it did,” Hatfield  
recounted.
H atley and one of his com ­
panions went to notify au­
thorities, leaving two other 
m en on guard. The strange 
object started sm oking, burst 
into flam e and burned, H at­
ley reported.

G reen said he had never seen one 
of the unearthlings beside his space 
ship. Then how could he be sure they 
weren’t a hoax — practical - joking 
earthlings just putting him  on?
“O h, I wouldn’t believe just anyone 
who walked up to m e and said he was 
from  M ars,” G reen replied.
“But if you get a call from  the W hite 
H ouse and were told President Eisen­
hower would m eet you at a certain 
tim e on the corner of H ollywood and 
Vine, and you went there, and a m an 
there who looked like the President 
called you by nam e, wouldn’t you be­
lieve he was Eisenhower?”
G reen said he once asked a spaceling 
to prove him self by disappearing.
“B UT H E R EFUSED and told m e to 
walk away,” G reen said. “H e was on a 
balcony five floors high, and I walked 
down a hallway for three or four sec­
ond and turned and looked back and 
he was gone. There was no logical 
place for him  to go from  that balcony.
G reen believes the spacem en are un­
doubtedly friendly, just as they profess 
to be, or otherwise they could have 
destroyed the earth long ago.
“They say they want nothing from  
us but our friendship,” he said. “They 
would never destroy us. This would be 
a violation of their code of life. They 
revere all living things.”
A pparently they do have lapses, 
though.
“There was one decision that if any 
nation on earth fires a nuclear war­
head, it will fall back on the people 
who fired it,” G reen said. “I don’t know 
what their latest decision has been.”
H E EXPLA INED that he hasn’t been 
in contact with a spacem an for two or 
three years now.
G reen said people from  m any planets 
are visiting earth, and that accounts 
for the wide variety of flying Saucers 
being sighted.
O ne of his favorites is the Venusian 
scout ship. That’s the one about 50 feet 
in diam eter with the three protruding 
sem i-spheres on the bottom  and the 
portholes around the cabin.
G reen said it is operational only 
within 5,000 to 10,000 m iles of a 
planet’s surface. H e said it com es down 
from  a cigar-shaped m other ship that 
parks up there. The m other ship can 
m ake interplanetary trips.

The so-c ailed U nidentified 
Flying O bjects (U FO ’s) seen 
Sunday in M ichigan by at least 
60 people, recall a bizarre story 
which appeared in The Tribune 
70 years ago.
The date W as N ov. 23, 1896, 
and it reported that m any per­
sons saw an “airship” flying 
over O akland.
But this date was 10 years be­
fore the W right brothers m ade 
the first successful heavier- 
than-air flight at Kitty H awk.
A erial balloons, however, had 
been known for decades.
The O akland “airship” was 
the talk of the town for days 
and a num ber of other sightings 
were reported, from as far 
away as R ed Bluff.
A lthough the original story 
said the craft resem bled a 
“huge bird,” later sightings 
described it as egg-shaped with 
lights at both ends.
It should be borne in m ind 
that shapes of aircraft and esti­
m ates of airspeed were still 
sciences of the future when the 
following story, reproduced in 
part, was written.
“That a huge airship has 
been hovering over O akland for 
the lagt few nights has in the 
m inds of m any been conclusive­
ly proven. A num ber of persons 
whose integrity is unquestiona­
ble have seen the strange navi­
gator of the air and this num ­
ber includes m any whose scepti­
cism  has been pronounced.
“Last evening at about 7:30 
o’clock, the passengers on an 
A lam eda car were startled by 
the sight of a brilliant stream  of 
light high in the heavens off in 
the direction of H ayward.
“The passengers distinctly saw 
the outline of an airship and 
watched its m aneuvers high in 
the skies. The ship resem bles a 
huge bird in its outlines and 
seem ed to rise and fall in its 
course. A light stream ed from  
the head of the ship, throwing a 
white stream  of light for sever­
al hundred yards.
“A s the outlines of the airship 
were plainly discerned, the pas­
sengers in the street car be­
cam e greatly excited.
“The phenom enon had first 
been noted by a m an who had 
been idly watching the heavens.
A s soon as he perceived the 
light, he attracted the attention 
of the other passengers and all, 
intensely interested, watched 
the peculiar m achine as it 
m ade its way through the skies.
“It was high in the heavens. 
It appeared to be of huge size. 
W hen first seen, it seem ed to be 
floating over San Leandro. It 
m oved rapidly, going at least 20 
m iles an hour. It shot across 
the skies to the northwest, then 
it turned quickly and disap­
peared in the direction of H ay­
ward.
• “N ot only was the airship 
seen by the passengers, but 
m any other residents of this 
city distinctly saw the brilliant 
light and the huge bird-like 
body floating in m id-air.
"N one of the spectators were 
acquainted with each other and 
yet their stories are startlingly 
sim ilar, agreeing as to tim e, -di­
rection of th6 airship, and de­
scription.’' . „ ■ >. ;
^“These facts leave little doubt 
in the m inds of m any people 
that a successful airship, has 
been invented and is navigating 
the heaven#.-”

In all educational levels and in

First, alm ost everyone (96

saucers. For som ething so high­
ly publicized as these objects, 
this finding m ay, at first, not

A re flying saucers a hoax? 
Philip Easter of Baltim ore, M d., 
told one of our interviewers this 
story: "It was dark and I had 
jdst com e out of a building. I 
looked up and saw this object 
hovering in the dark sky above 
m e. It was very bright and 
stayed in about the sam e posi­
tion for several m inutes. A t 
first I thought it was a planet, 
but I knew it couldn’t be be­
cause of the way it m oved.’’
H arold Stoops tells of the tim e 
last June when he was driving

Futher analysis of these data 
show that flying saucer sight­
ings are not necessarily a phe­
nom enon pf certain population 
groups. Sim ilar proportions of 
college educated persons, and 
those who have not gone beyond 
grade school claim  to have seen 
them .
R eal or Imaginary?
A re flying saucers real or 
im aginary? W e asked this ques­
tion, with surprising results. A l­
though the A ir Force claim s 
that nearly all of the reported 
"saucer” sightings are easily 
explained, as m eteors, weather 
balloons, swam p gasses, planets, 
etc., m ore A m ericans think they 
are “real” than believe they 
are “im aginary." Forty-six per 
cent (or about half of the U ^. 
adult population) hold this opin­
ion, while 29 per cent describe 
them  as “a figm ent of the im ag­
ination." The rest cannot m ake 
up their m inds.
This represents quite a change 
in public attitudes toward the 
credibility of "flying saucers” 
since a G allup survey conduct-
ed alm ost 20 years ago. A t that 
tim e—shortly after the flying 
saucers were first noted—four 
out of every ten called the sau­
cers either a hoax or the prod­
uct of som e overheated im agi­
nation. In 1950, another G allup 
survey showed that attitudes 
had begun to change. M ore per­
sons that year held the view 
that the saucers were a reality.
In weighing what evidence 
there is about the credibility of 
flying saucers it is im portant to 
note that while m ost of the re­
ported sightings have been ex­
plained, according to A ir Force 
reports, there are still m any 
sightings without explanation. 
Persons with college training 
are m ore likely to believe in 
the reality of flying saucers 
than are persons with a ■ high 
school background, or less.
A m ong those persons who be­
lieve flying saucers have an ex­
planation, (that is, those who 
think they are "real”), here is 
how they describe them :
1) Experimental projects, 
Air Force teets
2) Actual vehlolea from out­
er space
3) Burning gas, “swamp 
Oas”
4) M eteors, shooting stars
S) W eather baloons
6) Supernatural revelations
Those who believe they are 
from  outer space account for 6 
per cent.
L ife on Other Planets?
D q people who are living in 
the space age believe there is 
life, as we know It, on other 
planets?
M any scientific authorities be­
lieve that intelligent life m ust 
exist elsewhere in the universe, 
because the statistical odds are 
large that there are m illions of 
planets in the universe enough 
like our own to support life, as 
we know it.
O ne person in every three (34 
per cent) who participated in 
this survey said they believe 
life does exist on other planets.
A gain, persons with the m ost 
education are m ost inclined to 
believe in the existence of intel­
ligent life on other planets.

N ewark Valley—G ary 
T. W ilcox is a young m an 
dogged by rum ors.
People say his dairy 
farm  has gone bust be­
cause nothing will grow 
on the land.
O thers who m eet him  on the 
street express surprise, say­
ing they’d heard he was in a 
N ew York City hospital suf­
fering from  radiation burns.
One story has ft his land  
Is under guard for govern­
ment study and that there is 
a darkened patch in his pas­
ture where nothing will grow.
The handsom e, 28-year-old 
farm er says none of these 
tales is true.
But the strangest of all, and 
the basis for the rum ors, is 
his encounter with a space 
ship and his talk with its eerie 
crew 17 m onths ago.
That happened, M r. W ilcox 
says.
“I know what I sav for 
two hours. I was talking with 
them  and even joking with 
them .”
M r. W ilcox touched the 
m etallic-like, egg-shaped craft 
and heard its strangely- 
garbed occupants explain in 
sm ooth English they were 
from  M ars, he said. W hen he 
turned to get them  a bag of 
fertilizer, as they requested, 
the ship lifted off the ground 
and was out of sight in sec­
onds, he recalled.
In the weeks after he re­
ported the incident to the 
Tioga County Sheriff’s D e­
partm ent, curious people 
visited his farm  by the dozen.
They Included men who 
said they were from govern­
ment agencies and others who 
identified themselves as offi­
cials of the IBM Space Gui­
dance Center in nearby Owe­
go, the farmer said. M ost 
were just residents who 
wanted to see the landing spot 
for themselves.
O ne m an who also claim ed
G A R Y W ILC OX 
to be a saucer-seer told M r. 
W ilcox he had hitchhiked from  
M assachusetts to talk to him . 
O ther spaceship fans tele­
phoned him  and urged him  to 
join their organizations.
But M r. W ilcox, who pro­
fesses be only wants to m ind 
his own business and m ake 
a living, steered clear of such 
affiliations/H e had the tele­
phone rem oved from h i s 
dairy barn because it was 
ringing so often he couldn't 
keep up with the chores, he 
said.
If any responsible agency 
ever determ ined exactly what 
happened in that rem ote corn­
er of his farm  last spring, he 
has yet to hear about it.
M r. W ilcox did not seem  
particularly happy to see a 
reporter show up at his farm , 
one m orning last week. H e 
wasn’t rude, either.
W hen the reporter arrived,
the farm er was in a hayloft, 
pitching down feed for the 
noontim e snack of his 60 cows.
“I only have so much time 
to get this work done, so I 
can’t stop,” he said. “This is 
the kind of work you should 
be doing," he joked. “Tak­
ing care of 60 cows and work­
ing at another job, too.”
M r. W ilcox has an afternoon 
and evening job as janitor at 
Berkshire School.
“I don’t know where all 
these stories ere com ing from  
now. I thought it was all over 
last year, but now everybody 
is talking again.
“The best one is about m e 
being in a N ew York City hos­
pital with radiation burns. 
People have said they heard 
it on the radio. I’ve never 
been in a hospital in m y life.
“Then som e wom an put in 
the newspaper that there was 
no grass growing where that 
thing landed. There was 
never m uch growing there.
But there’s corn now.
' “N obody ever talked to m e 
about these things. They just 
keep telling stories.”
In answer to a question, M r. 
W ilcox said his sighting of 
the m ysterious craft and its 
crew and the widespread spec­
ulation over the report has not 
hurt his personal life.
“I just don't worry about 
it. I know what I saw and  
other people have seen things. 
I even thought somebody was 
playing a joke on me, but I 
was In the service for six 
years and not even jet planes

R A VEN N A , O hio (A P)-“W e 
were close, closer than I ever 
want to be again,” said a depu­
ty sheriff who chased an un­
identified flying object from  
O hio into Pennsylvania.
H undreds of persons in both 
states reported seeing the “bril­
liant and shiny” object early 
Sunday m orning.
Police Chief G erald Buchert 
of M antua, about eight m iles 
north of R avenna, said he took 
a picture of the object from  his 
front yard but the A ir Force 
told him  not to release it
Buchert said It looked lika 
"two table saucers put togeth­
er.”
Portage County D eputy Sher­
iff D ale Spaur said he and his 
partner, W .L. N eff, “were 
close” to the object in separata 
cars and chased it 86 m iles for 
an hour and a half, from  near 
R avenna to Conway, Pa., near 
Pittsburgh.
Spaur said he clocked it at 
speeds up to 103 m iles per hour. 
From  the ground Spaur said it 
looked like the head of a flash­
light, about 40 feet wide and 18 
feet high.
Spaur said the lines of the ob­
ject were very distinct. "Som e­
body had control over it,” he 
said. “It wasn’t just floating 
around. It can m aneuver.”
“I think that what m akes the 
light on these things change 
colors is that they are rotating 
in a circular m otion.”
Van H orn was called by girls 
at the dorm itory. The co-eds 
reported the object alternately 
glowed red,, white, blue andi 
I other colors.
They said it rose up and 
down, appearing to stop its 
ascent and sink again just when 
it was about to m ove into the 
glow from a nearby airport 
beacon light.
Its vertical and horizontal 
m ovem ents were too fast for 
any airplane, the girls said.
The announcem ent that H ynek 
was being called in cam e from  
Selfridge, a base near D etroit 
which dodged newsm en’s in­
quiries M onday about the object 
seen in a swam p near A nn 
A rbor.
H ynek’s role is scientific con­
sultant to the A ir Force’s “Proj­
ect Blue Book," the official 
label of the A ir Force program  
to track down reports of un­
identified flying objects.
A uthorities and crowds of 
curious residents braved thun­
dershowers M onday night to 
com b the swam py area near 
A nn A rbor where the object was 
seen Sunday night.
W ashtenaw County Sheriff 
D ouglas J. H arvey said deputies 
spent m ost of the night search­
ing and checking out reports 
from  persons who thought they 
had spotted the object again.
The investigation began when 
at least 12 policem en and 4 0 
other persons said they watchil 
a weird flying object, guards 
by four sister ships, land m

Two In County 
Claim They Saw 
'Glowing' U FO
A t least two Ventura County 
people saw a glowing object 
W ednesday night, shooting 
downward over the Point M ugu 
area. ,
M rs. M arvin M iller of 196 Pa­
cific St., Ventura, said today 
that she spotted the object at 
8:55 p.m . W ednesday as she and 
her husband were returning 
from  Los A ngeles.
She said that she noticed it 
as they were driving through 
Thousand O aks. “It looked like 
an airplane in a dive at first,” 
M rs. M iller said, “but then I 
saw a glowing tail and sparks 
began to shoot off. This dispell­
ed m y idea about an airplane.”
A t the sam e tim e, about 20 
m iles to the north, a Fillm ore 
m an saw what appeared to be 
a plane. “It was in a dive," 
said A lvin Caples of 831 O live 
St., Fillm orft.
If he had it to do over 
again, would he keep the in­
cident a secret?
“N o. I’ve got nothing to 
hide. I would report it. If I 
saw another one today I'd do 
the sam e thing. Then people 
would say I’m  crazy.”
M r. W ilcox, who is un­
m arried and lives in the vil­
lage, feeds and cares for the 
stock in the m ornings. A m an 
whose fam ily lives in the 
hom estead of the 300-acre 
farm  does the m ilking. M r. 
W ilcox also owns h farm  near 
O wego where he grows feed 
crops, he said.
H e gives the im pression that 
he would like to believe the 
whole episode was a joke of 
som e type, yet knows it 
wasn’t. H e said he thinks that 
eventually the explanation will 
be supplied, to him  and the 
rest of th^ world.
“A m an down in Berkshire 
says he saw som ething like 
this recently, too. I’m  not the 
only one.”
The two human-like crea­
tures whose features were hid­
den under uniforms and hoods, 
may not have been space 
travelers, he said.
But he has no better ex­
planation.
O n his way hom e, the re­
porter stopped at a diner and 
invited flying saucer conver­
sation from  the waitress.
"That’s where they say it 
' landed,” she said, pointing 
out the window. "R ight over 
the hill. I don’t think he was 
stretching the truth. H e’s a 
reliable m an and if he says 
he saw it, I believe him . They 
say there’S a spot up there 
where no grass will grow be­
cause of the. fuel it was us­
ing.”

Sir:
For the past twenty years the U nited 
States has been having an increase in the 
problem  of the U .F.O . or < g-Flying Saucers" 
and nothing is being done about it,as it- 
should be.
The A ir Force has m aintained that the 
sightings have been gas,light,weather,etc. 
but by talking to som e of the people that 
have seen U .F.O .’s I'm  wondering if the 
A ir Force isn't lying.
I'm  not the only one wondering this, 
for the people that I have talked to say 
that after the M ichigan sightings and the 
others they would not report it to the A ir 
Force if they did see a U .F.O ..
R eports say that even F.B.I. A gents have 
seen U .F.O .'s and this has been denied by 
the A ir Force.
The report recently about the police 
officer in O hio or Penn, having serious 
fam ily trouble as well as being ridiculed 
by people because of his sighting,along with 
a fellow police offleer,of a U .F.O ..

This article deals with the current controversy over 
the existence or nonexistence of flying saucers or U nidentified 
Flying O bjects (U FO s), and quotes M ichigan’s Congressional 
R epresentative G ER A LD FO R D as suggesting that Congress look /

pressure has been m ounting for the establishm ent of an inde­

the U FO problem .

"Flying Saucers - Serious Business", Lyle Stuart, Inc.,

docum ents m any reports throughout the world of U FO s since that 
date, and claim s that 19^5 was the year of the greatest num ber 
of U FO sightings and that these were observed by m ultiple wit­
nesses. It is author Edwards’ contention that U FO s are space 
vehicles sent to observe activities on earth and the A ir Force, 
which is charged with the responsibility of investigating U FO s, 
has deliberately withheld inform ation and given m isleading 
explanations because it fears a m ass panic by the public if 
the public were told the truth.
The book describes U FO s as polished m etal objects, 
radiating heat and light (sufficient to have burned witnesses 
who were too near), and em itting som e force field that inter­
feres with electrom agnetic instrum ents and power sources. 
Colors range from  brilliant white to dull reds and brilliant 
orange. Som e objects have carried blinking lights. There are 
three basic shapes: 1) zeppelln-shaped ships up to 300 feet 
long; 2) disk-shaped objects ranging from  a few feet in dia­
m eter to 100 feet, with m any reported at about 30 feet diam eter; 
and 3) egg-shaped objects, which according to the author are 
the ones m ost recently sighted.
A ccording to the book, the objects m ove silently and 
attain fantastic speeds, yet can hover m otionless in m id-air; 
they have been reported to land and to take off with great 
speed, usually with a burst of light from  the underside, which 
in som e cases has left the ground beneath them  scorched.
M any of the persons nam ed in the book who have re­
ported them  are reliable individuals, including law enforce­
m ent officers, m ilitary personnel on official duty, m ilitary 
pilots, com m ercial airline pilots, civilian defense officials, 
etc. A num ber of photographs of the objects have been repro­
duced in the book, som e reportedly taken by reputable persons. 
M any reported sightings are from  atom ic and m issile research 
areas.
W reckage of crashed saucers has been reportedly re­
covered on at least three occasions, in one case described as 
a m agnesium  alloy, in another as pure m agnesium , and in a third 
case, attributed to an official of the Canadian governm ent, the 
m aterial was described as an exceptionally hard unknown m etal, 
actually a m atrix of m agnesium  orthosilicate which contained 
thousands of 15-m icron m etal spheres throughout, and showing 
evidence of m icro-m eteorites on its surface.

SF 62-2927
D ET': 1m s
A few witnesses have reported seeing crewm en who 
ha\d landed from  the objects, who are described as three and 
a half to four feet tall, wearing what appear to be space suits 
and helm ets.
A uthor Edwards concludes this book with a prediction 
that in the near future U FO s will m ake an "overt landing" or 
deliberate contact with earth.
A copy of this letter is being directed to D enver, 
in view of the contract awarded to D r. ED W A R D U . CO N D O N .
The above is being called to the Bureau’s attention 
in view of the press report of m ounting pressure for a civilian 
controlled investigative agency to handle U FO m atters.

ARMED FORCES
Focus on U FO
W inking, blinking and nod­
ding — red lights over Pasa­
dena, blue lights over 
G reensboro, silver cigars 
over D etroit — people kept 
seeing strange flying objects, 
। and officials kept saying 
1 nothing was out there.
But in recent years, and 
particularly since last sum ­
m er, the pressure had been 
m ounting for either a full- 
scale Congressional investi­
gation or for the establish­
m ent of an independent, ci­
vilian-controlled investigato­
ry agency.
It had been a big year for 
U nidentified Flying O bjects. 
The sightings had com e in 
bunches, the bulk of them
, last spring and'sum m er. A nd 
> the reports had com e from  
all over.
“Like Xeon Lam ps”
A m ong the m ost intriguing 
item s in this year’s crop:
a A t M ilan, M ichigan, 15 
m iles sou til of A nn A rbor, 
bluish - yellow bars of light 
were spotted, looking “like 
neon lam ps dangling in the 
sky.”
o In East D elhi, M ich., a 
15-year-old boy called in to 
report seeing lights in the 
sky alternately standing still 
and m oving, som etim es 
flashing on and off.
o In A ltadena and San 
M arino, Calif., police switch­
boards logged dozens of calls 
after a pair of red lights in 
the sky were reported by 
residents.
o In Toledo, O hio, officials 
at the local airport received 
seven calls from  persons who 
said they saw a glowing ob­
ject that was red, green and 
white.
o In suburban-D etroit,, a 
m an saw a noiseless, wing­
less, cigar-shaped flying ob­
ject.
e In Bryan, Texas, resi­
dents said they heard a 
star-like object purr.
o O ver Valdese, N .C., a 
“glowing blue thing” explod- 
। ed, then lit up the town like a 
' giant flashbulb.
Som etim es the alleged 
. sightings spilled over into 
> the bizarre. A space ship full 
of little m en allegedly landed 
in a farm  yard near H opkins- 
; ville, Kentucky. The little 
] m en glowed, and they were 
1 described as “three feet tall, 
J with eyes like saucers and 
i hands like claws.”
' A grain buyer in N ebraska 
' said he was invited into a 
] space ship where he chatted 
• with four m en and two wom ­
en. They spoke only broken 
'English — but fluent H igh
G erm an which, as it hap­
pened, was the grain buyer’s 
native tongue.
Silvery Cigar
N or did A m erica have any 
' corner on the U FO m arket.
In N orthern Ireland, Tom  
H utchinson saw a saucer 
drop into a peat bog near Iris 
hom e in M oneym ore. It was 
eggshaped, three feet in di-
DR. CON DON
Saucer-watcher
am eter, 18 inches high. It be­
gan to spin and H utchinson 
grabbed it. H e was carrying 
it to the police, who de­
scribed him  as “level-headed 
and G od-fearing,” when the 
thing twisted out of his hands 
and got away.
A nd in W arm inster, Eng­
land, a city council worker 
said he saw a silvery cigar 
shape drifting over the vil­
lage downs. A fter a tim e, he 
said, it seem ed to stretch. 
Then it seem ed to divide 
am idships with a flash of or­
ange light, although there 
was no noise.
Flam ing O bject
N ot all the sightings could 
be easily written off as the 
phantasm agoria o f kooks, 
cranks and dsninks. A nd, un­
less one subscribed to a theo­
ry of m ass hallucination, it 
was difficult to explain away 
sim ultaneous sightings con­
firm ed by m any rational wit­
nesses — such as the flam ing 
object that was seen last 
A pril by thousands of East 
Coast residents from  W ash­
ington to Boston and even 
tem porarily disrupted a ball 
gam e between the Chicago 
W hite Sox and the W ash­
ington Senators in W ash­
ington, D . C.
O r the incident in H ills­
dale, M ichigan last M arch, in 
which a Civil D efense D irec­
tor, an assistant dean, and 87 
coeds reported that they had 
seen a glowing object zip 
past their college dorm itory 
and hover in a swam p for 
hours. W itnesses said they 
watched from  the second 
floor of the H illsdale College 
girls dorm itory as the object 
wobbled, wavered, glowed 
eerily and once zipped right 
at a dorm itory window be­
fore stopping suddenly.
A M eteor?
The A ir Force, charged 
with investigating every one
This W orld, Sunday, O ctober 16, 1966
S. F. Sunday Exam iner & Chronicle


of the 11,000 sightings since 
1947, did have som e ex­
planations. 'The m ysterious 
flam ing object in the East 
was “probably a m eteor.”
A s for M ichigan’s m uch- 
publicized and plentiful 
unidentified flying objects, 
they turned out to be 
m onkeyshines instead of 
m oonships: “U nidentified 
college boys” playing pranks 
with flares to frighten the 
girls in the dorm itories, 
cam e the august report from  
a distinguished astronom er 
called in by the A ir Force to 
investigate the H illsdale af­
fair.
Every report of a “flying 
saucer” had ostensibly been 
checked out by the A ir 
Force’s special squad known 
as “Project Blue Book,” al­
though the staff was woefully 
sm all. O f the 10.147 sightings 
since 1947, the A ir Force 
insisted that only 646 rem ain 
unexplained — and m ost of 
these because of insufficient 
inform ation. The others have 
been attributed to planes, 
balloons, astronom ical 
causes, m issiles, swam p gas, 
m eteors, fireworks and, in 
som e cases, to hallucinations 
and psychological reasons.
Ball Lightning?
Philip Klass, avionics edi­
tor of A viation W eek & Space 
Technology m agazine, 
recently proposed som e other
explanations. Klass, an 
electronics engineer, said a 
form  of “ball lightning,” gen­
erated by high tension power 
lines, could explain the phe­
nom ena.
M any of the sightings, said 
Klass, occurred along or very 
near high-tension lines where 
lum inous balls of ionized air 
could be generated under 
certain conditions.
‘N o Threat’
The m ain conclusions 
reached by the A ir Force 
were:
o “N o unidentified flying 
objects reported, investigat­
ed and evaluated by the A ir 
Force have ever given any in­
dication of a threat to our 
national security.”
o “There has been no ev- 
TBehce subm itted to or discov­
ered by the A ir Force that 
sightings represent techno- 
logical developm ents or prin­
ciple s beyond tire range of 
present day scientific knowl­
edge.”
© “There has been no evi­
dence that sightings catego­
rized as unidentified are ex- 
traterrestrial vehicles.”
M ajor D onald Keyhoe, 
however, was unconvinced. 
M ajor Key hoe, U SM C (re­
tired), director of the N ation­
al Investigations Com m ittee 
on A  e r i a 1 Phenom ena (N I- 
CA P), a private space watch­
ing organization, accused the 
A ir Force of conducting a 
long-term  whitewash on the 
U FO question.
It was K e y h o e’s theory 
that the A ir Force was with­
holding inform ation for fear 
of causing public panic. 
U FO s, insisted the M ajor, 
who had never seen one, were 
of extraterrestrial origin an.’, 
the A ir Force feared that the
public could not accept this 
knowledge. “They won’t give
you details,” he com plained. 
“If they did, m any of their 
explanations would fall flat.”
A nd K e y h o e could also 
claim a powerful ally in
M ichigan’s G erald Ford, the 
H ouse R epublican leader, 
who suggested it would be “a 
verj’ wholesom e thing” for 
Congress to look into uniden­
tified flying objects. Such an 
investigation. Ford suggest­
ed. would m ake the A m eri­
can people “feel better.”
Study in D epth
W hether or not that was so, 
the A ir Force last week took 
definite steps to m ake itself 
feel better. Fed up with in­
vestigating reports of glow­
ing, flying, zoom ing, wink­
ing, awesom e, blinking, 
streaking, hovering things, 
the A ir Force last week de­
cided to bail itself out of all 
responsibility for future con­
clusions concerning U FO s.
The A ir Force announced
that it had com m issioned the 
U niversity of Colorado to 
conduct an “in-depth” study 
of flying saucers for the next 
18 m onths. The director of 
the study (expected to cost 
$300,000) would be D r. Ed­
ward U . Condon, form er di­
rector of the N ational Bureau 
of Standards, and now a 
physics professor at Colora­
do. . -
To satisfy the skeptics, and 
insiu'e the study’s objectivi­
ty, Colorado would select 
several other universities to 
take part in the independent 
investigation, with about 100 
scientists participating.
A nd in case that wasn’t 
enough, the N ational A cade­
m y of Sciences also agreed 
to appoint a panel to review 
the Colorado report.

D ear Sir,
A bout two years ago or so I wrote to you and 
asked you, to the best of m y recollection, why agents 
of you Bureau investigated reported landings of 
unidentified flying objects and whether data regarding 
their findings was available. You replied saying that 
agents investigated these cases to determ ine whether 
any Federal law had been broken and that their 
findings were confidential as were all other FBI records.
Since receiving your letter which was placed in m y
records, m any of m y records including your letter were
destroyed recently in a fire at m y hom e and I would 
therefore be grateful if, for the rurnoses of m y new 
records, confirm  your letter of 1964/5 if the situation 
is still the sam e.

near Socorro, N ew M exico, on A pril 24, 1964. Captain H older, U nited

one Lennie Zam ora of the Socorro Police D epartm ent who had observed 
th phenom ena. SA Byrnes typed such a statem ent from  Zam ora which 
was later included in a m em o for dissem ination. The A lbuquerque

D ear Sir;
I have been Police Chief of Princeton, V. Va. for a num ber 
of years and have been a m em ber of that departm ent for 22 
years.
Sir I m ention the above so that you will not think an idiot 
is writing.
You seem ingly do not know or utterly disreguard the following 
subject. I had hoped that you m ight m ake a statem ent before 
now on tnis srbject. I havi waited m any years to see your 
opinion in print, but nothing of the sort has happened.
I am speaking of the U FO 's or unidentified flying objects 
before long and it is a m atter of tim e you are going to be 
scooped so to speak on this subject. Sir I happen to know 
they exist nl have personally seen two of them , vine of these 
sightings under low cloud cover in daylight. (I am not sure 
as to the cloud height). The other at prehaps two thousand 
feet altitude and appx.one m ile off.
You m ay not be interested ? Put I think this m ay be vital to 
the security of the Inited States and if it is vital I am  
sure that you are now fam iliar with and working on this 
problem .
If I am correct and these tilings do land 1 am  greatly con-

the inhabitance of this country. I am convinced after a great

UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECT 
ALLEGEDLY SIGHTING, JANUARY 17, 1967

212 Sharon Drive, Chesapeake, Virginia, telephone 547-4648 
advised that he desired to report that he had observed a large
oblong-shaped object which alighted in the street in front 
of his when he was on his way home from his television repair 
shop, the Oak Grove T. V., 6424 Great Bridge Road, Chesapeake, 
Virginia. He believes that he was taken into this craft which
he recalls as being made of a glass like substance and being 
transparent. It was manned by several individuals who appeared 
to be undersized creatures similar to members of the human
race, probably not more than 4 feet tall. They were allegedly 
wearing regular trouser pants and T-Shirts. Collins believes 
that he was transported by this craft for an undetermined 
distance and returned to his point of take-off approximately 
one hour later.
Collins spoke in a coherent manner although he 
appeared to be under certain emotional strain. He claimed 
he had not been drinking any intoxicants but he was unable 
to account for the time between 8:00 p.m. and 4:00 a.m.. He 
stated he was telephoning from his workshop but had no recollection 
of being elsewhere between 8:00 p.m. and 4:00 a.m.
The above is being furnished for your information.

A review of the M iam i indices revealed inform ation 
reflecting subject appeared at the M iam i O ffice on July 24, 
1959, and \dunteered to return to A ustria as an intelligence 
agent. H is expressed m otivation was to do som ething to repay 
the debt he felt he owed the U nited States. H e was afforded
the W ashington, D . C. H eadquarters address of the Central 
Intelligence A gency and told his inquiry should be directed 
tere.
A lso, on July 4, 1961, he appeared at the M iam i 
O ffice and gave an incoherent story of recently m eeting an 
individual who asked him  to kill his m other. PEYER L appeared 
to be som ewhat bewildered and continuously gazed away from  the- 
interviewing A gent.
D uring his m ost recent visit to the M iam i O ffice, 
PEYER L seem ed genuinely concerned about the existence 
of the object he allegedly photographed during N ovem ber, 1944. 
H e exhibited no em otional nor m ental disorder and appeared to 
be rational.
In view of recent publicity afforded U FO sightings, 
som e apparently by responsible sources, this inform ation 
is subm itted to the Bureau for consideration of transm ittal 
to the U . S. A ir Force.

D uring this period he observed the aircraft described above. 
It was saucer shaped, about twenty-one feet in diam eter,

PEYER L also assum ed the secrets pertaining to this aircraft

was responsible for the downing of at least one A m erican B-26

"....Fuel m ixture of N 2H 4O in M ethyl A lcohol

PEYER L asserted he was shot down by the British

he was born M ay 3, 1924, in A ustria.
PEYER L stated he has withheld this inform ation

be beneficial in Vietnam  and would prevent the further loss 
of A m erican lives which was his param ount purpose in contacting

On April 26, 1967, PAUL L. PEYERL, 1430 Southwest 
76th Street, Miami, Florida, appeared at the Miami Office and 
furnished the following information relating to an object, 
presently referred to as an unidentified flying object, he 
allegedly photographed during November, 1944:
Sometime during 1943, he graduated from the 
German Air Academy and was assigned as a member of the 
Luftwaffe on the Russian Front, Near the end of 1944, he 
was released from this duty and was assigned as a test 
pilot to a top secret project in the Black Forest of Austria. 
During this period he observed the aircraft described above. 
It was saucer shaped, about twenty-one feet in diameter, 
radio controlled, and mounted several Jet engines around the 
exterior portion of the craft. He further described the 
exterior portion as revolving around the dome in the center 
which remained stationary. It was PEYERL*s responsibility 
to photograph the object while in flight. He asserted he 
was able to retain a negative of a photograph he made at 7,000 
®ete*s (20,000 feet). A Xerox copy of the negative, as furnished 
by PEYERL, appears on the last page of this communication. 
Also, a still photograph he allegedly made ”at the risk of my 
life", illustrating the object parked in a hanger, appears on 
the last page.
According to PEYERL, the aboveaircraft was designed 
and engineered by (First Name Unknown) KUEHR, a German engineer 
whose present whereabouts is unknown to him. He assumed KUEHR 
was taken into custody by Allied Forces upon the termination 
of hostilities. PEYERL stated KUEHR unsuccessfully attempted 
to avoid the German draft, but was apprehended by the Gestapo

Sometime during 1943, he graduated from the 
German Air Academy and was assigned as a member of the 
Luftwaffe on the Russian Front. Near the end of 1944, he 
was released from this duty and was assigned as a test 
pilot to a top secret project in the Black Forest of Austria. 
During this period he observed the aircraft described above. 
It was saucer shaped, about twenty-one feet in diameter, 
radio controlled, and mounted several jet engines around the 
exterior portion of the craft. He further described the 
exterior portion as revolving aroundthe dome in the center 
which remained stationary. It was PEYERL’s responsibility 
to photograph the object while in flight. He assorted he 
was able to retain a negative of a photograph he made at 7,000 
«®ters(20,000 feet). A Xerox copy of the negative, as furnished 
by PEYERL, appears on the last page of this communication. 
Also, a still photograph he allegedly made ”at the risk of my 
life", illustrating the object parked in a hanger, appears on 
the last page.
According to PEYERL, the above aircraft was designed 
and engineered by (First Name Unknown) KUEHR, a German engineer
whose present whereabouts is unknown to him. He assumed H ugill
was taken into custody by Allied Forces upon the termination 
of hostilities. PEYERL stated KUEHR unsuccessfully attempted 
to avoid the German draft, but was apprehended by the Gestapo


RE: PAUL L. PEYERL
INFORMATION CONCERNING
in Vienna, Austria, sometime during late 1943 or early 1944. 
PEYERL also assumed the secrets pertaining to this aircraft 
were captured by Allied Forces. He said this type of aircraft 
was responsible for the downing of at least one American 8-26 
airplane. He furnished the following fuel and engine data:
"••••Fuel mixture of N2H4O in Methyl Alcohol 
(CH3OH) rather than 'oxygen-holding* mixture of 
hydrogen peroxide H a O^ in water. 7m 1,3m high two 
rocket motors; smooth flow, rotary drive over 2,000 
meters per second...."
PEYERL said he copied this data from a board 
located in the hanger area.
PEYERL asserted he was shot down by the British 
on March 14, 1945, after having been reassigned to the 
Western Front. He was held prisoner by the British in 
London and later in Brussels until his release in 1946. 
He departed for the united States from Bremerhaven, Germany, 
on December 26, 1951; entering the united States in New 
Jersey on January 7, 1952, and was subsequently naturalised 
in Miami during 1958. He is presently employed as a 
mechanic at Eastern Airlines, Miami, Florida. He related 
he was bom May. 3, 1924, in Austria.
PEYERL stated he has withheld this information 
because he assumed the united States possessed it. He has 
become increasingly concerned because of the unconfirmed 
reports concerning a similar object and denials the United 
States has such an aircraft. He feels such a weapon would 
be beneficial in Vietnam and would prevent the further loss 
of American lives which was his paramount purpose in contacting 
the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
PEYERL reiterated he has the original negatives 
of both photographs. He said the shots were taken at a thirty 
second time exposure.

Pu rpose and scope
This magazine has been dedicated to 
M R . GEOR GE ADAM SKI.
M r. Ad am ski lau nche d the IGAP — Inte rnational Ge t 
Acqu ainte d Program  - in 19 59 , base d on the philosophy 
that pe ople in all parts of the world shou ld be give n 
the opportu nity of knowing what is going on e ve rywhere  
in the fie ld of flying sau ce rs. His hope was that as 
m any as possible wou ld d iscove r the tru th of the pre ­
se nt age and tu rn to face the tim e to com e — to le arn 
to acce pt, throu gh conviction, the fact that we are all 
citize ns of the Cosm os and Child re n of the Cosm ic Pow­
e r whose Laws ru n throu gh the e ntire Cosm os. The se 
Laws we can le arn to com pre hend throu gh stu d y and  
u nd e rstand ing of the »Science of Life « brought to ou r 
atte ntion by the pre se nce of frie nd ly visitors from  othe r 
world s.
The m agazine is se nt to civil and m ilitary au thoritie s 
all ove r the world , to le ad e rs in the U nite d N ations, in 
the Vatican, in scie ntific circles, and to Pre ss, rad io 
and TV au thoritie s.
The pu rpose of this m agazine is to bring to e ve ry­
one, e ve rywhe re , ne ws of e ve nts from  all qu arte rs of 
the globe in all its varied aspe cts. This m e ans any ne ws 
that can possibly be of valu e in ou r e nd e avou r to bring 
to m ankind an u nd e rstand ing of what is going on in ou r 
world all the tim e . We shall try to d e te ct any and e ve ry 
m ove in the d ire ction of that tru th which we have acc­
e pte d , bu t which is not ye t officially acce pte d or re c­
ognize d in broad e r circle s:
1. People from other worlds In our system are visit­
ing our planet.
2. People from other worlds are in contact with cer­
tain political and scientific circles in East and W est.
3. People from all walks of life, official and unoffi­
cial, all over the world, have been contacted by 
people from other worlds; such contacts have been 
kept secret so far.
4. The philosophy brought to the world by M r. Geo­
rge Adamski is considered and aid helping to un­
cover the truth of our origin and our future destiny.
The m agazine will m ake no atte m pt whatsoe ve r to 
fight anyone , in spite of any action which m ight be lau n­
che d against it. Only the tru th, whate ve r its gu ise , will 
be brou ght to be ar, to allow e ach to d e cid e for him self

This m agazine is non-political, non-re ligiou s, non-se c- 
tarian and non-profit-m aking. We hope that you m ay 
profit from  re ad ing it, and that you will te ll as m any

you e ve r wond er what be com e s of old te le vision 
program m e s - apart from  the ones they show on 
Su nd ays?! Do the y ju st fad e ou t and vanish - or 
d o the y ke e p trave lling through space for e ve r, 
pe rhaps to be picke d u p by cre atu re s on othe r 
plane ts? Fantastic----bu t scie ntists think it is pos­
sible . Afte r all, we he re in Britain we re able to 
watch the Olym pic Gam e s in Japan via a satellite 
in ou te r space .
»Som e scientists e ve n think that we ird cracklings 
and gibbe rish that occasionally com e in on rad io and  
TV program m e s are really pirate program m e s from  
othe r plane ts. And it is tru e that scientific listening 
posts have taped som e m ighty od d sound s from  
space which cou ld com e from  som e sort of inte l­
ligence , som ewhe re in the U niverse .
»Back in Se pte m ber, 19 53 , vie we rs all ove r Eng­

KLEE«, the y we re told , »has be e n off the air for

To U fologists, the id ea of watching a blank te le ­
vision scree n for su ch phe nom e na is not so far-out 
- in fact, it m ight prove an inte re sting e xpe rim e nt 
for those of u s who be lie ve su ch things are pos­
sible . Cou ple d with a te le pathic re qu est to our 
space friend s, it m ight e ven prod u ce resu lts! That 
the id e a has som e scie ntific backing is shown by 
a re ce nt article which appeared in the »Ottawa 
Jou rnal” viz:
»„L ive” TV Coming from Outer Space?«
Salt Lake City (AP) - A d istinguished British astro­
nom er, Dr. Fre d Hoyle , spe aks of the possibility 
of »live « TV from  ou ter space. And by »live « he 
m eans pe ople - ou ter space pe ople , pe ople who 
m ay live on plane ts like ou rs on the other sid e of 
the M ilky Way. Hoyle thinks it’s highly probable  
that su ch plane ts and pe ople d o e xist. So d o a lot 
of other scie ntists.
»The y think som e of the rad io wave s hitting the

and the re is som e scie ntific e ffort u nd e r way to

»What cou ld we se e and he ar on this »cele stial«

to m ake the m se lve s se e n more and more by the

If the powe rs-that-be on Earth continue to cover­

”WE ARE N OT OPPOSED TO A COU RT JESTER 
on the gre en lawns of the Royal Palace , provid e d he 
is not take n for an astronom ical philosophe r----”.
He re , with all the arrogance of the se lf-opinion­
ate d , se lf-appointe d ju d ge , in word s of ignorance , 
m ate d with bigotry and be gotte n of an inflate d e go­
tism , we se e a sm all se ction of that vociferous bu t 
ofte n influ e ntial Pre ss opinion which always swallows 
be fore it chews.
The occasion was the m uch-pu blicise d , m u ch-criti­
cise d aud ience of Qu e e n Ju liana of the N e the rland s 
accord e d to one Ge orge Ad am ski of California, 
U .S.A., at II a.m . on M ay 18th 19 59 , at Soestd ijk 
Palace , ne ar U tre cht, Holland .
The vocife rous Pre ss opinion in this instance was 
of the Catholic People ’s Party ne wspape r, "Die  
Volkskrant”.
We cou ld im agine the sam e se lf-ele vate d jou rna­
list writing: "We are not oppose d to a cou rt je ster 
in the private apartm e nts at the Vatican, provid ­
e d ----”, on another M ay d ay, of anothe r II a.m . au­
d ience, m uch m ore se cre t, of m u ch m ore pote ntial 
significance, four ye ars later, when Ad am ski was 
re ce ive d at the be d -sid e of the d ying Pope John.
Of the one au d ie nce , with a graciou s First Lad y, 
the world 's se nsation tabloid s we nt to town. Lacking 
the m e at of the occasion on which to fe ast the ir 
re ad e rs they gave the m  the bones and the offal, and  
in the proce ss the y soile d and be sm irche d the ir own 
honou rable profe ssion.
The se cond aud ience was spare d this treatm e nt, 
and still is.
And so we can pe rce ive how som e of Ge orge 
Ad am ski's m e e tings with the fam ou s re ce ive d the 
fu ll blast of pu blicity, whilst others, cond ucte d in a 
se cre t u nd e rcu rre nt of d iplom acy pe ople d with sile nt 
courie rs and intercontine ntal brie fings, are still, ve ry 
m u ch, "classifie d”.
Ad am ski was N EVER afraid of the scoffe rs and the 
critics, still le ss of the face le ss spoke sm e n in au tho­
rity. With e ne rgy which had to be se e n to be be ­
lie ve d , with cou rage of conviction base d in su re  
knowle d ge of his own e xpe rie nce s, and with fortitu d e  
d istille d from  the swe e t and the sou r of his su pport­
e rs and his d etractors, HE DIDN 'T GIVE A DAM N .
He cou ld have writte n "pot-boilers” of space ­
fiction in his su nny California, like m any of his cont­
e m porarie s, m aking a fortune from  the cre d u lou s. 
This is shown by the fact that his books be cam e 
world be st-se lle rs in m any langu age s. Ye t in 12 ye ars 
he only offe re d TWO AN D A HALF BOOKS to the 
ge ne ral pu blic. Does this se e m  like a m an who is 
”on the m ake ?”
N o. Inste ad he pu she d and shove d his way into the , 
m any tim e s, inhospitable clim ate of "e xpe rt” analysis 
and clinical d isse ction, saying: "He re is m y e vid ­
e nce , here is m y story - TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT!”
AN D HE DIED, DOIN G JU ST THAT.
What ke pt him  going for so long? What ke pt the 
flam e so bright for those 12-13 long, bitte r-swe et 
ye ars? His tre m e nd ou s se nse of hu m ou r? YES! His 
m any thousand s of friend s and su pporte rs the world  
ove r? YES, THESE ALSO!
Bu t his faith in a DIVIN E IN TELLIGEN CE and su re  
knowle d ge of the e xiste nce and the he lpfu l pre se nce 
frie nd s from  othe r plane ts in space , we re the Rod  
of good , spiritu ally- and physically-he althy hu m an 
and the Staff on which he le ane d , u ntil he d ied .

SOESTDIJK PALACE,
SOESTDIJK,
HOLLAN D. JU N E 19 67 .
To He r M aje sty, Qu e e n Ju liana.
You r M aje sty,
We ve ntu re to approach you on a m atte r which we 
be lie ve will be of som e inte rest to you , the su bje ct 
be ing one of im m e nse im portance, be aring as it d oes 
im plications of a natu re which m ight we ll affe ct in 
the fu tu re e ve ry aspe ct of hu m an e nd e avou r on this 
Earth.
The su bject of which we spe ak has once be fore 
be e n brought to Your M ajesty’s atte ntion, and , we 
u nd e rstand , re ce ive d care fu l consid e ration; in fact, 
it is in the be lie f that Your M aje sty has shown m ore 
than u su al intere st that we m ake this approach to­
d ay.
M ay we , with re spe ct, ask you to cast your m ind  
back 8 ye ars. In M ay of 19 59 , You r M ajesty was 
pleased to re qu e st the prese nce of M r. Ge orge 
Ad am ski, of California, at Soe std ijk Palace . M r. 
Ad am ski was at that tim e on a world le ctu re-tou r.
This ge ntlem an had an u nu su al story to te ll. He 
spoke of visitations to this plane t by hum an be ings 
from  ou ter space . He spoke of kind hum an be ings 
who had trave lle d in the ir space ships, ofte n calle d  
"flying sau ce rs”, from  the ir hom e plane ts in our 
solar syste m , from  Ve nu s, from  Satu rn, M ars and  
othe rs.
Their u nd erstand ing was far ahe ad of ou r own, 
their since re inte rest in our we lfare was part of a 
philosophy of brothe rhood and love for all of the 
Cre ator’s Works.
This was Ge orge Ad am ski’s story.
In 19 59 , the su bject of flying sau ce rs was consid ­
e red by the m ajority to be lau ghable . Any atte m pt 
to d iscu ss the possibility of be ings te chnologically 
su pe rior to u s, visiting Earth in space craft trave lling 
at fantastic spe e d s, was to d ism iss all the scientific 
conce pts of the d ay. Ind e e d , in 19 59 , scie ntists we re
only be ginning to acce pt the rem ote possibility of 
’’som e form ” of life, - and a one -ce ll life , at that, - 
e xisting anywhere at all ou tsid e of Earth. And any 
su gge stion that inte lligent be ings e xisted who had  
progresse d past the stages of wars and pove rty and  
racial intole rance , was to spe ak of He ave n itse lf.
N ow, in 19 67 , m any things have change d . The 
m ajority still lau ghs, ye s. Bu t one se e s in the e ve r­
e xpand ing m inority a le vel of rad ical bu t intellige nt 
thought which wou ld have be e n brand e d a "he re sy” 
against the whole Establishm e nt ju st a fe w ye ars 
ago. With ou r own gre atly-incre ase d space activity 
and the ne ar-proxim ity of an Earthm an’s land ing on 
the M oon, id e as have had to change along with the 
im m e nse change s in the m e ans of trave l.
What m od ern scie nce has ye t to d iscove r, how­
e ve r, is an antid ote to the e norm ou sly swolle n e go 
of "Earth-m an” which has gained nothing from  the 
d iscove rie s of Galile o other than a list of change d  
astronom ical d ata and som e ve ry basic facts con­
ce rning the solar syste m  in which we live .
What the y have not ye t le arned from  the "he re­
tical" re ve lations of Galile o is that scie ntific "fact” 
of tod ay is not ne ce ssarily scie ntific "fact” of to­
m orrow; that they, too, these m od e rn scie ntists, m ay 
be calle d u pon - and pe rhaps ve ry soon - to change 
all pre viou s concepts of astronom ical physics and  
to acce pt that Earth-m an is not, afte r all, alone in 
the U niverse .
One of the pionee rs in this school of thought was 
Ge orge Ad am ski. Since his passing, in April 19 65, 
othe rs have com e forward to carry on his work.
M ad am , on se ve ral occasions in the ye ars since 
19 59 , M r. Ad am ski was give n the opportu nity of phot­
ographing som e of the se space craft on m ovie -film . 
The se film s have be e n shown wid ely in the U nited  
State s and in ce rtain cou ntrie s in Europe . The y have 
be e n vie wed by pe rsons in au thority, includ ing e x­
pe rts in m any field s, as we ll as by m illions of the 
ge ne ral pu blic by way of te le vision.
The e xtrate rre strial hu m an be ings of whom M r. 
Ad am ski spoke are still operating in the sam e patt­
e rn. Se ve ral of his helpers have be e n privile ge d to 
m e et these pe ople . N e w colour m ovie s have be en 
take n of the ir ships, on occasion with the d e libe rate 
connivance of the pilots of the craft conce rne d .
An Am e rican lad y, M rs. M ad ele ine Rod effe r, and  
two Ge rm anborn, natu ralise d Am e ricans, M r. and  
M rs. Fre d Ste ckling, have be e n privile ge d not only 
to m ee t the se frie nd s from  other plane ts bu t the y 
have also be e n e nable d to photograph the m ovem e nt 
of the ir craft on colou r-film .
All of the se film s have be e n vie we d by pe rsons 
in au thority, includ ing photographic e xpe rts of 
the U .S. N ational Aeronautics and Space Age ncy, 
(N ASA), and the y have ye t to be fau lte d .
M ad am , the reason for ou r approach in this Ope n 
Le tte r is this. Having he ard from  M r. Ad am ski first­
hand of his e xpe rie nce s, wou ld You r M aje sty care  
once m ore to he ar of the visitations of the Brothers 
and Siste rs who be frie nd e d him ? The y have m ad e 
them selve s known to othe rs; the re are cou rage ou s
m e ssage s to truste d U FO worke rs on Earth, and  
for other spe cific pu rposes. M ost of u s have read  
accou nts writte n by pe ople claim ing to have re ce i­
ve d m e ssage s, both garble d and clear, from  the 
Space Brothe rs via ham  rad ios, te nsor-coil e xperi­
m ents, e tc., or of se e ing space m en or other u nid e n­
tifie d phe nom ena on the ir te levision scre e ns. There 
was one am u sing story of a m an who fe ll asle e p 
while watching a late , late m ovie on te le vision and  
awoke se ve ral hou rs later to find him se lf staring 
at a strange , othe r-world face on his TV scre en! 
He was so scare d , he snappe d off the TV se t - 
and sold it the ne xt d ay! The n there are case s of 
pe ople he aring m essages and ce le stial m u sic on 
the ir tape re cord ers. Only rece ntly, Fate m agazine 
pu blishe d a le tte r re ceive d from  M yra De e Hina of 
Sacram ento, California, in which she state d that 
while atte m pting to re cord a new song she had  
cre ate d with the he lp of nu m e rology, i.e ., »note s 
form ing the vibration of e ach word «, on a brand - 
new tape bought at a local store , she procee d e d  
to pick the notes ou t on an organ and sing the m  
on to the tape . She goe s on to say: »l the n we nt

Whe n I re tu rne d to the re cord e r to stop it, som e

sam e se nsation as if I he ld two repelling m agnets. 
Wond e ring why su ch a cond ition e xiste d , I stood

the tape was ne w and I ran it arou nd 12 o’clock 
m id night. I've trie d to re pe at this strange incid e nt

a langu age I neve r he ard be fore . Se ve ral pe rsons 
who have liste ne d to the tape say the y have a we ird

A W arning Via Ham R adio.
While , e ven with an ope n m ind , we cannot, u n­
d e rstand ably, vou ch for the ve racity of all the se 
claim s, we can quote a cou ple of e xperience s of 
this natu re which happe ne d to ou r fou nd e r, the 
late Wilbe rt B. Sm ith, d u ring his long and inte nsive 
stu d y of the U FO M yste ry.. WBS, as m ost of you 
know, was first and fore m ost a scie ntist, and he 
ne ve r acce pte d anything withou t carefu l checks and  
cross-che cks and only by this m e thod was he rea­
sonably su re of his grou nd . Bu t u nd ou bte d ly, he 
re ce ive d cle ar-cut m e ssage s and confirm ations on 
a varie ty of scie ntific and philosophical m atters 
from  his space frie nd s, the »Boys from  Topsid e «, 
throu gh a nu m be r of d iffe re nt m e d ia. One of the se
sou rce s was a local ham rad io operator who, it 
m u st be cle arly stresse d , kne w little if anything 
abou t M r. Sm ith’s work or scie ntific e xpe rim e nts 
and m ost of the m e ssage s he re ce ive d for Wilbe rt 
Sm ith, on an u nid e ntified wave band , we re com ple te­
ly u nintelligible to him  - althou gh the y m ad e a lot 
of se nse to WBS.
By this m e ans and with the u su al, re que ste d con­
firm ation from  other sou rce s, Wilbe rt Sm ith re ce ive d  
a lot of invaluable gu id ance in his scie ntific work. 
The m ost d ram atic incid e nt, howe ve r, occu rre d when 
WBS and a sm all working party of the then Ottawa 
Flying Sauce r Club we re preparing to te st ou t an 
e xpe rim ental m achine the y had bu ilt. Ju st prior to 
this te st, the Boys from  Topsid e broke into the 
ham rad io ope rator’s listening, blanking ou t all 
other stations and re pe ating insiste ntly that the y 
had an u rgent m e ssage for Wilbe rt Sm ith which 
the ope rator was to pass on to him  withou t d e lay - 
and this he d id . The m essage , cou che d in scie ntific 
te rm s, m ight be translate d into laym an’s langu age 
as saying that a ce rtain flywhee l in the e xpe rim ental 
m achine wou ld not stand the stre ss of the r.m .p. 
about to be place d on it and that it wou ld shatte r 
u nd e r the strain; pre cau tion shou ld be take n. He e­
d ing this ad vice , WBS and his co-workers bu ilt a 
prote ctive wood e n cove ring arou nd the m achine , 
afte r which they se t it in m otion and , as pre d icted , 
the flywhe e l shatte re d , e m bed d ing the wood en 
board s with its shrapnel!
Intervention on a Tape R ecording.
Another strange e xpe rie nce occu rre d d u ring an 
e xchange of tape re cord ing le tte rs be twe e n WBS 
and another U FO worke r in the U .S. At the tim e , 
WBBS was in possession of ce rtain scientific d ata 
which the Boys from  Topsid e had aske d him to 
ke e p confid e ntial for the tim e be ing. Inad ve rte ntly, 
WBS, m ore by im plication than d ire ct statem ent, 
le t slip a fe w clu e s to this scie ntific proble m in 
a tape -le tte r to his colle agu e . A we e k or so late r, 
he re ce ive d the tape back from  his frie nd , with a 
m e ssage asking if he wou ld fill in the blank spaces 
on the tape. Puzzle d , WBS e xam ined the tape care ­
fu lly and played it ove r, only to d iscove r that in 
the places whe re he had le t slip the te il-tale clu e s, 
the sou nd had be e n ne atly e rase d and there was a 
slightly sticky su bstance on the tape in these are as! 
The only possible conclu sion he cou ld reach was 
that it was the work of the Boys from  Topsid e .
He re then, are two au the ntic case s of the Space

"The significance of m y find ings, if corre ct”, Dr. 
Johnson d e clare d , "is that a case for life che m istry 
in space can not only be infe rre d bu t the e nd pro­
d u ct can be looke d u pon as a form  of life sim ilar 
to that on e arth”.
Johnson m ad e his d iscove rie s by observing the 
spe ctral line s of light absorption of inte rste llar d u st. 
He fou nd that the d ust absorbe d light at a ce rtain 
range of wave le ngth.
Id e ntifying an e lem ent or com pou nd by spe ctral 
inform ation is sim ilar to id e ntifying a hum an by his 
finge rprints.
It has be en known that star-light contains m any 
colors. Scie ntists also know that m ole cu les or atom s 
in the path of star-light are capable of absorbing a 
part of it.
This m eans that ind ivid u al m ole cu le s can be id e nt­
ifie d positive ly by the particu lar spe ctral portion of 
the light the y absorb on a one -to-one basis.

Rand om  te sting of the possible hyd rocarbon com p­

life tim e s. By syste m atic e lim ination of possibilities, 
Dr. Johnson re d u ce d the fie ld to porphyrins and  
carbote noid s, which are close ly associate d with 
chlorophyll. He com pare d the absorption band spe c­
tra of these su bstance s in laboratory cond itions sim ­

and found that the y m atche d .
Fu rthe r inve stigation through both spe ctroscopic

Syste m s re ve ale d the su bstance in qu e stion to be

If som e of this d u st shou ld reach a planet like 
M ars, cou ld the chlorophyll photosynthe size ?
"We have ind ications that life starte d he re (on 
e arch) from  ou tsid e”, Dr. Johnson d e clare d . "The 
sam e thing cou ld happe n the re”.
To illustrate the point, Dr. Johnson said he cond ­
u cte d som e e xpe rim e nts on rocks e stim ate d to be 
4 1A billion ye ars old . He fou nd porphyrins, a "ske le ­

Dr. Johnson spe cu late d that the sam e m echanism  -

Patrick had the m  paged as the Cologne flight be ­

look-ou t for the baggage com ing u p on the wid e 
m oving be lt from  be low. M rs. Su zy Pee te rs, M ay’s 
life long frie nd , and Treasurer for the Be lgian grou ps, 
arrive d in he r tiny Volksvagen and sm ilingly gree te d

be e n film ing the aircraft from  the airport roof. We 
we re all old friend s. Su zy was to he lp with e xtra 
transport back to Antwe rp.
We looke d at the pe ople who we re com ing ove r 
to the inqu irie s d e sk; and the floor clatte re d with 
lu ggage -load e d trollie s as the passe nge rs cam e away 
from  Cu stom s and be gan passing throu gh the barr­

gree te d e nthusiastically by waiting friend s. The hu ge 
hall rang with sou nd , and above all we re the d is­
e m bod ie d voice s spe aking loftily from  m any hid d en 
lou d spe ake rs. We wond e re d what Fred and Ingrid  
wou ld look like .
A ne at-looking cou ple with a boy of about se ve n 
spoke to one of the cle rks at the inqu irie s d e sk. 
The y tu rne d and faced u s as the m an pointe d our 
way.
Fre d was about 5 fe et 10, Ingrid abou t 5-7 . Gle nn 
was looking arou nd him  at the high roof of the foye r. 
Ingrid was an attractive you ng wom an with natu ral 
blond e hair, slim  and we aring a white, two-pie ce su it. 
She d id not look the type one wou ld e xpe ct to se e 
at a spe cial private m e e ting of m e m be rs of the 
U nite d State s Se nate Ae ronau tics and Space Com m ­

Fre d se e m e d a rathe r se riou s-face d you ng m an. 
Both we re in the ir e arly thirtie s. Both we re Ge rm an- 
born, naturalise d Am e ricans. The y had live d in Ca­
nad a for som e tim e prior to the ir arrival in the 
States. Only little Gle nn’s voice was totally Am eri­
can.
So this was Fred Steckling, the you ng m an who 
had not wishe d to ’’take ove r”, as Ge orge Ad am ski 
had hope d d u ring the last fe w d ays of his illne ss in 
Washington. D.C. As Fred said , no-one cou ld take 
G.A.’s place . So it was le ft at that. And Ge orge had  
d ied , not knowing. Or did he know, that wise old  
m an?
M ad e leine and Fre d and Ingrid had ju st gone on 
working as be fore , only m u ch hard er. Te lling G.A.’s 
story, showing his film s, bothe ring the officials on 
Capitol Hill. And now the y had M ad ele ine Rod e ffe r’s 
film  to show as we ll, the am azing close -up shots of 
the scou t-craft hove ring ove r her "front yard”, which 
was in re ality, the long sloping, grassy bank running 
from  her house d own to the road . At the m ost, a 
hu nd re d fe e t in the air, le vel with the tall tree -tops.
M ad e leine and Ingrid had faced a chilly rece ption 
com m itte e at the private Se nate he aring of Janu ary 
19 65, a couple of m onths be fore Ge orge d ie d ; and

told the m  that she would n’t like to be in THEIR 
shoe s when pe ople fou nd ou t what was be ing ke pt 
from  them .
Did the y think the pu blic was blind ?
M any had se e n the planes chasing the sauce rs. 
Even child ren.
And M ad e leine had com e ou t of the com m itte e­
room  se e thing with ange r. A fe w we e ks afte rward s 
she had film e d a scou t-ship ove r her own "front 
yard”.
Fre d loose ne d u p a little as we spe d along the  
road Brusse ls-Antwe rp. Patrick, who stud ie d at 
Bru sse ls U nive rsity, and who him self le cture d on 
flying sau cers, was a good d rive r, bu t fast!
"M ad ele ine was at the airport as we le ft Washing­
ton. Oh, and Lind a, her frie nd , was with he r. You 
know, that you ng wom an who had som e sightings. 
She’s written to you , I think. A nice girl. There we re 
two Brothe rs stand ing back a bit in the crowd . The y 
we ren’t with M ad e le ine . M aybe she kne w the y were 
there."
He we nt on talking about som e of the Brothe rs he 
had m et. Ingrid joine d in occasionally, her e ye s 
bright and shining.
”Oh, Ronald !” she said , in her Ge rm an-accente d  
Am e rican, d rawling the word s. ”lf you only cou ld  
m e et the m ! There is this wond e rfu l fe e ling of good ­
ne ss that se e m s to re ach ou t to you ."
Fred ’s rather se riou s face re laxe d a little as he 
spoke . One cou ld se e he was no fanatic. Fre d Steck- 
ling and Ingrid we re not m one y-grabbing "contact- 
e e s” m aking a fast bu ck. The y spoke qu ie tly, bu t 
force fully at tim e s. Pe rhaps Fre d cou ld not qu ite 
shake off this fe e ling of having to convince som eone  
all the tim e .
"Ronald ,” he said , afte r a rather long, som e what 
tired sile nce . They'd be e n trave lling for m any, m any 
hou rs. "Ronald , d o you know, it’s ju st as if the y have 
ou r fre qu e ncie s. I had a birthd ay a while back —” 
Ingrid was about to bu rst in with wife-like e nthu siasm  
bu t Fre d ’s voice stoppe d he r. "I had a birthd ay a 
while back,” Fred we nt on. "Ingrid and I we re wat­
ching T.V. I d on’t re m e m be r the show. Sud d e nly -” 
and again Ingrid was bursting with agre e m e nt, 
”- su d d e nly it we nt d oot-d i-d i-d oot-d oot, on the T.V. 
ju st like that, m aybe te n or a d ozen tim e s. Doot-d i­
d i-d oot-d oot. Ingrid and I ju st looke d at e ach othe r - 
and the n we both DASHED ou t onto the porch.”
Patrick swerved am ong the traffic on a bu m py 
patch of road .
"The re ove r the house was the sau ce r. It ju st 
swaye d the re , back and forward . The n it se e m e d to 
swing d own low as the light showe d from  the porch 
and the n shot off ove r in the d ire ction of Washing­
ton Airport.”
Ingrid cou ld n’t hold he rse lf any longe r. "And d o 
you know, Ronald !” she bu rst in, "M ad e le ine had the 
sam e thing happe n on he r birthd ay! Lind a and som e 
m ore frie nd s we re ju st be ing se e n off from  the house  
and they calle d ou t to M ad e leine to look. And the re
was this re d , glowing light swaying ove r the house !”
Fre d sm ile d knowingly.
"You can be t, the y've got ou r wave -le ngths!” he 
said .
As we looke d ou t at M ay's long lily-pond in the 
spaciou s lawn, the big, le afy tre e s alm ost ove rhang­
ing the house and splashing the grou nd with shad ow, 
Fred gave a little lau gh to him se lf and glanced u p 
at m e . He was so ofte n se rious, e spe cially when he 
talked to the pe ople who gathe re d at M ay’s hou se, 
gu e sts, reporte rs e tc, - it was nice to se e him  with 
a, som e what twiste d , grin. The re we re no gim m icks 
with Fre d .
”l saw a sau cer close ove rhe ad som e while ago. - 
The re are a LOT of the m  arou nd that are a - I had  
m y cam era with m e , this cam era - and I ran off som e 
film  and I fe lt so gosh-d arned ple ase d with m yself! 
D'you know som ething? I le ft the d u st-cap on!”
He told m e of his talks with the Brothe rs.
"D'you know, Ronald , whe n you’re with them , you 
d on't ASK qu estions. You d on’t think of it. You ju st 
liste n. It's as if you are not m e ant to ask of things 
m aybe the y d on't want you to know.”
Fre d bit his lip thou ghfu lly.
"One of them  I can se e se ve ral tim e s a we e k. I 
know whe re he 's working. I can te ll you what sort 
of work he d oes, bu t not where .” Fred told m e .
"It’s only once in a while we have a chance to 
talk. M aybe ove r a cu p of coffee som e place .”
He pau se d , the n we nt on.
"This one’s from  Venu s.”
Fre d 's trip ove r had be e n d e laye d . Hans and I had  
had to change ou r bookings. Fre d had told m e on 
the trip u p from  the airport how som e one , - he d id n’t 
know who - had contacte d the bank whe re Fre d had  
arrange d cred it for the trip.
”l have to d o it on the instalm e nts,” he said . ”A 
cook d oe sn’t e arn all that m uch m one y.” Fred works 
at an hotel in Virginia, ne ar where he live s.
The strange thing was that Fred had pre viou sly 
had cred it arrange m e nts with the sam e bank, and  
had had no bother. M aybe som eone had trie d to stop 
his trip to Europe . It had take n se ve ral d ays to cle ar 
u p the m atte r.
He was spe aking first in Antwe rp, staying with 
M ay for som e d ays, the n The Hagu e , the n Frankfu rt 
and M annhe im , the n in Au stria - Vie nna and Linz - 
the n on to We st Be rlin for the last six d ays to stay 
with his fam ily.
Whe the r Fred was helped with m one y at the Ge r­
m an or Au strian le ctu re s, I d on’t know. I know he 
re ceive d nothing in Antwe rp and De n Haag, e xce pt 
hospitality from  good friend s. That ce rtainly d id not 
pay the Ste cklings fare across the Atlantic.
Fre d 's first le ctu re was on the e ve ning of ou r arr­
ival in Antwe rp, at M ay M orle t’s hom e . Of the 50-60 
in the au d ie nce , which inclu d e d re porte rs, I notice d  
a you ng wom an. I shall not d e scribe her.
Late r that night, in fact at 3 .3 0 in the m orning, - 
we had sat talking, all of M ay’s house -gu e sts, u ntil 
the sm all hou rs, as we we re to d o e ve ry night of ou r

There is no d ou bt that a gre at nu m be r of the

obje cts in space - bu t not by any m e ans all of the m .
N o d ou bt also, som e of the falls of ice are from  
aircraft d e -icing or bre aking off by som e othe r

chance, then it still e xplains only a ve ry sm all part 
of the total num be r of reporte d falls.

attitu d e pre vaile d within ce rtain scie ntific circle s in 
re gard to that Space.
Earth was the nave l of the Cosm os, arou nd which 
and abou t which e verything tu rne d . The m oon and  
the plane ts and the stars we re hu ng in the sky for 
Earth’s sake , and be twe e n all the bod ie s ou tsid e of 
Earth’s atm osphere was this gre at e m pty Space , in 
which was to be fou nd - absolu tely nothing.
Bu t the rocke ts told anothe r story - they had been 
ou t the re . We can say the n, that now it is prove n 
that Space is not e m pty. Am ong other things, d u st 
has be e n re giste re d . And it has be com e d u sty in the 
space -capsu le when the capsule d oor has stood  
open.
It is prove n also, that ce rtain che m ical reactions 
can, in the cou rse of a fe w se cond s, form  solid  
m atte r. (Einstein).
As all the planets are born in the sam e Cosm os, 
this m e ans to say that the sam e e le m e nts or u nits 
which m ake u p the "creation” are to be fou nd in 
invisible form in this so-calle d e m pty Space . It 
"only” nee d s the right che m ical reaction to take 
place for the whole to take solid form  and to bu ild  
u p as plane ts, com e ts, m ete orite s or ice - or for that 
m atte r, as m any othe r things.
It is the re fore qu ite plain to se e that scie nce can, 
and m u st, soon ad d a ne w chapter to that book abou t 
the "factu al” cond itions in Space , which it is writing 
at this tim e . In this "book” it will be state d that, 
u nd e r ce rtain cond itions, solid m atter is form e d in 
e m pty Space - as we ll as m uch e lse - m atter that 
can later fall onto this plane t or othe rs as "shooting­
stars” or as ice from  an airplane's toile t.
And it will be e norm ou sly d ifficu lt, - ye s, alm ost 
im possible , - to d iffere ntiate be twee n what are re m ­
ains of solid bod ie s, su ch as plane ts, com e ts or 
asteroid s, and what is prod uce d by som e othe r 
m e ans. One m ight point to e vid e nce of bacte ria, bu t 
this ju st will not d o, be cau se bacte ria can be gath­
e red u p from  anywhere in the Cosm os. For e xam ple , 
ou r plane t, ju st the sam e as other plane ts, has, 
d u ring its jou rne y throu gh space, traile d behind itse lf 
a long tail of d u st and bacte ria. This d ust and these  
bacte ria are caught u p at som e tim e or anothe r by 
othe r he ave nly bod ie s, in the sam e m anne r that we 
colle ct d u st and bacte ria from  other world s.
In fact, we ne ed not go to all the gre at am ou nt of 
trou ble that we d o, to sterilize the space -ships and  
probe s which are to be se nt u p; - ou r bacte ria has 
long be e n pre se nt on ou r siste r plane ts and m any
othe r plane ts, ju st as "their bacte ria” has be e n a

WE ALL KN OW of accou nts of objects which,

Scie ntists and othe r e xpe rts have sou ght to e x­

In the book ”Le M atin d es M agiciens”, by the 
Fre nchm e n, Lou is Pau we ls and Jacqu e s Bergier, vol­

M ete oric stones originate from  com e ts and plane ts

An investigation is u nd e r way at Hollom an Air

U FO -reports
Soviet radar spots U FO s
M OSCOW - (AP) - A Sovie t scie ntist says the re 
m ay really be su ch things as flying sauce rs from  
ou te r space.
Sovie t rad ar scre ens have d e te cted u nid e ntifie d  
flying obje cts (U FOs) for 2 0 ye ars, he says.
Bu t Sovie t scie ntists, like the ir colle ague s in the 
We st, are still pu zzle d abou t what su ch U FOs really
The scie ntist, id e ntifie d only as F. Zige l, was writ­
ing in the cu rre nt issue of the illu strate d Sovie t 
you th m agazine Om e na.
He offered five possible e xplanations for U FOs, 
inclu d ing visitors from  ou te r space . He calle d this 
alte rnative ’’e xtre m e ly spe culative .”
’’Bu t,” he ad d ed , ”as the U FO proble m  has not 
ye t be e n solve d , d iffe re nt e xplanations, inclu d ing 
e xtre m e s, are possible .”
The article took the lid off a su bject rare ly d isc­
u sse d in the press he re .
In the 19 50s the Sovie t pre ss scoffe d at Am e rican 
reports of flying sau ce rs as ju st so m u ch cold war 
propagand a.
By those Sovie t accou nts, the Am e ricans trie d to 
e xplain away the ’’sau ce rs” as som e sort of ne w, 
se cret Sovie t we apon.
Re ports of flying sau ce rs sighte d in the Sovie t 
U nion, in the Cau casu s and in Ce ntral Asia, also 
we re rid icu led he re .
The n for se ve ral ye ars the Sovie t pre ss re m aine d  
silent on the whole qu e stion; the Cm e na article show­
e d that the U FO issu e is be ing reope ne d , this tim e  
as an object of se riou s scie ntific stu d y.
Zige l was id e ntifie d as one of the e d itors of a 
book, ’’Inhabite d Cosm os,” be ing pre pare d for pu bli­
cation he re. The book will d iscuss the possibility of 
living be ings in space and e fforts to com m unicate  
with them .
The chie f e d itor of the book is B. P. Konstantinov, 
who, as a vice pre sid e nt of the Sovie t Acad em y of 
Scie nce , is one of this cou ntry’s m ost respe cte d  
scie ntists.
In his m agazine article , Zige l said the ’’Ange l 
Echo,” a U FO d e te cte d by rad ar, is constantly obs­
e rve d by scie ntists at the Ce ntral Ae rological Obs­
e rvatory ne ar M oscow.
Sim ilar observations, he said , have be e n m ad e in 
the U nited State s, Australia, Ind ia and Japan.
’’The phe nom ena of the U FO tod ay shou ld be con­
sid e re d as global,” he ad d e d .
He re je cte d the id ea that bird s, inse cts or plant 
se e d s cou ld cau se su ch re actions on rad ar scre e ns.
Zige l said the re cou ld be no d ou bt that U FOs 
e xist ’’bu t the natu re of the se objects is still not 
u nd e rstand able tod ay.”
The n he liste d the se five possible e xplanations:
1. N ON SEN SE or inve ntion. He said the re was 
som e u ntruth he re , citing reports of pe ople who 
claim e d to have rid d e n in flying sauce rs and othe rs 
who thre w hats in the air and the n photographe d  
’’sau ce rs”. Bu t he re je cte d this alte rnative as killing 
the qu estion rather than solving it.
2 . AN OPTICAL illu sion re late d to the d istribu tion 
of light in the e arth’s atm osphe re , su ch as a rain­
bow. The U FO, he said , is m ore com plicate d than 
that, howe ve r.
3 . A N EW SECRET flying apparatu s of one of the 
m ilitary powe rs on e arth. ”N o one hold s this vie w 
now,” he said .
4. AN U N KN OWN phe nom e na of nature , ju st as 
rad ioactivity was u nknown u ntil the e nd of the last 
ce ntury. In this conte xt, ionized particle s and charge d  
particle s of d u st in the atm osphe re we re give n as a 
possible e xplanation. But Zige l said , this d oe s not 
e xplain the color or m ane u ve rability of U FOs or the ir 
appearance in good we ather.
5. SPACESHIPS from  an ad vance d civilization on 
anothe r plane t. Zigel said the spe ed of U FOs su pp­
orts this the ory. So d oe s what he calle d ’’the fact” 
that no U FOs we re e ve r re liably re porte d to have 
land e d .
Zige l calle d for ”an all-sid e d , thorou gh, scientific 
e xploration” to cle ar u p the origin of U FOs once  
and for all.

I se nt a cable confirm ing rece ipt of the le tte r and

Toward the e nd of April, when I re tu rne d to Lon­

orter asking for ve rification of the inte rvie w. I ad m itt­

firm  anything.
The re porte r was cau tione d not to pu blish anything 
u ntil it had be e n confirm e d . He agre e d to await con­

The Daily He rald of April 2 9 th, 19 59 , Lond on, pu b­

The ne wspape r accou nts which claim e d I told re p­

we re e ntirely false. One thing is ce rtain: the press 
was furious. The reporte rs cou ld not ge t any inform ­

Whe n I e ntered , one of the se m e n helped m e ou t 
of m y top coat and m u ffle r; the other e scorte d m e 
into a large library with high ce iling.
I had be e n ne rvous with anticipation, bu t a fe eling 
of calm  and e ase cam e ove r m e as I stood in the 
pre se nce of the Qu ee n. She and the othe rs prese nt 
we re stand ing when I e nte re d the room . The Que en’s 
se cre tary cam e forward and introd u ce d m e to He r 
M aje sty, Qu e e n Ju liana. In tu rn, I was prese nted to 
Prince Be rnhard ; Lt. Ge ne ral Schaper, Chief of the 
Royal N e the rland s Air Staff; Profe ssor Jongbloe d , 
of Ae rial M e d icine ; Dr. M . Rooy, Te lecom m u nica­
tions; and M r. Kolff, Pre sid e nt of the Royal N e the r­
land s Society for Aviation.
Whe n the Qu e e n acknowle d ged the introd u ction, I 
com ple te ly forgot all the instru ctions and cou ld not 
re m e m be r the form alities that should have be e n foll­
owe d . Instead , I acte d u pon m y fe elings and was at 
e ase , for he re was a fe e ling of we lcom e as am ong 
frie nd s.
The Qu e e n graciou sly aske d if I d rank coffe e . 
Whe n I re plie d that I d id , coffee was se rve d in large  
cu ps of be au tifu l d e sign, while we rem ained stand ­
ing. Afte r all had be e n se rve d , we we re aske d to be 
se ate d . That coffee was the be st I had had since 
le aving Am e rica!
We we re at one e nd of the library, se ate d in 
lou nge chairs asse m ble d in a horse shoe position. 
Directly across from  m e sat the Qu ee n. N e xt to her 
was the Prince , and on m y right, ne xt to the Prince , 
was a ge ntlem an who acte d as spoke sm an for him . 
As I rem em be r, this ge ntle m an was M r. Kolff. Se ate d  
on m y le ft we re the other thre e ge ntle m e n alre ad y 
nam e d . The se cre tary was se ate d a little apart from  
the othe rs.
Sm all pastrie s we re se rve d , and as we sat e njoy­
ing the refre shm e nts and ind u lging in inform al con­
ve rsation, I noted that He r M aje sty wore a light blu e 
frock. The m en we re d resse d in black su its with 
white shirts and black tie s.
Cigare tte s we re passe d . The n the se cre tary opene d  
the topic for which I had be en su m m one d . She ref­
e rre d to m y two books and aske d a qu estion re gard ­

be e n grante d only forty-five m inu te s, so I m ad e m y 
answe rs as brie f as possible.
The astronom e r and Air Force chie f aske d qu e ­
stions next, trying to d iscred it the inte rplane tary 
visitors. As I think of it now, perhaps m y answer 
was a little ru d e in the pre se nce of royalty, for I 
said : "I have known of no m ajor officials of our Air 
Force , and fe w astronom ers, who have told what the y 
actu ally know about the visitors from  space . It is a 
known fact that the se cret file s and confid e ntial

pu lse s com e from  the anim al's gland s and its re act­
ions are wholly autom atic. The m ake -u p of an anim al 
allows no room  for fre e d om of choice , se arching 
cu riosity or d ou bt or conflict be twee n im pu lse s and  
e thical stand ard s.
An anim al knows nothing of that strange voice 
calle d conscie nce , which te lls u s what is right and  
what is wrong. Only M ankind is e qu ippe d with the 
conflicts which arise , be cau se it is cre ate d in God ’s 
Im age. And only M ankind is e qu ippe d with a sou l 
which e nables it to m aste r the proble m s cause d by 
the se conflicts.
Tod ay, thou sand s of scientists are at work on the  
m ost m om e ntou s task M ankind has e ve r face d : an 
atte m pt to u nd erstand a physical U niverse which is 
u ne nd ing in tim e and space , com plicate d in its d etail 
and im pre ssive in its ord e rline ss, and to u nd e rstand  
its origin and how it fu nctions.
It is no longe r a su fficient e xplanation of the aim s 
of scie nce to say that it se eks to find the physical 
laws which gove rn the U niverse and incre ase s M an­
kind 's control ove r it, be cau se scie nce 's fie ld of 
e nd e avou r has incre ase d in size . The basic e lem e nts 
of scie nce are colle ctive e xpe rie nces, obse rvations 
and the se tting of ce rtain goals at which to aim . 
From  the se the scie ntist trie s to m ake a m od e l of 
tim e, proportions and cause . Whe n one gains ne w 
knowle d ge the old m od e l is not re jected , it is ju st 
alte re d whe re the ne w knowle d ge points to an alter­
ation.
By re ason of the fact that the scie ntist is willing 
to alter his m od el of the U nive rse , he shows that 
he d oe s not d e m and to know the final truth. His 
scientific laws are at m ost only re-writings of the 
obse rvations he has m ad e .
The laws of science d o not control the reality bu t 
atte m pts only to e xplain it. Therefore the laws can 
be alte re d when one attains new knowled ge .
NEW  AIM S.
The tasks which science se ts itse lf are ne ve r-e nd ­
ing. For tru th is no static concept. For e ve ry ne w 
answe r arrive d at, a d ozen ne w conce pts com e into 
vie w.
Scie nce stand s be fore new frontie rs in m any field s 
of e nd e avour: the nu cleu s of the atom  be com e s m ore 
and m ore e nigm atic - the origin and com position of 
the U nive rse is still shrou d e d in m yste ry - the inne r 
fu nctions of living organism s still allow of no e x­
planation. Science 's Gold e n Age lie s ahe ad of u s.
The scie ntist works in an atm osphe re where d ou bt 
is an acce pted fact of life and e xagge rate d ortho­
d oxy taboo. Thom as Hu xle y says of the scie ntist: 
"For him  sce pticism  is a first d u ty and blind faith 
an u nforgivable sin”. A re su lt of scie ntific progre ss 
is that trad itions, which are the bu ttresse s of faith, 
have be e n swe pt asid e . The scie nce s and religion 
have therefore ofte n collid e d . And ye t it is one of 
the trage d ie s of our tim e that scie nce and religion 
have be com e ad ve rsarie s. Be cau se to achie ve a sol­
u tion of the conflict it has be e n te m pting to ad opt a 
policy of pe ace fu l co-e xiste nce , to d ivid e our e x­
pe rie nce s into two d iffe re nt are as, to give science  
control ove r the one and religion control ove r the 
other.
Le t scie nce e xplore the physical world , whilst 
religion take s care of the othe r, pe ople say. Whe n 
science has re ache d its lim its, then re ligion can take 
ove r and e xplain that which allows of no e xplanation. 
This is a fate fu l ste p to take. To se parate the two 
world s cou ld only be d one if scie ntists we re not 
Christians and no Christians we re scie ntists. Bu t 
scie nce and re ligion d o not re ign ove r two se parate 
kingd om s.
INVISIBL E.
It is not possible to bu ild a wall betwe en re ligion 
and scie nce . Grad u ally, as scie nce is e nable d to e x­
plain som e of the m yste rie s of the U nive rse it com e s 
into are as which we re pre viously u nknown or only 
acce pted on a basis of faith.
Eve ry new e xpe rie nce - physical or spiritu al - m ust 
fit into a patte rn which gives both faith and m ean­
ing. It is M ankind that e xplore s the U niverse , e xpe r­
im ents, and se e ks for the truth. It is not ju st a d etail, 
it take s part itself in the proce ss of cre ation. M an­
kind itse lf is the greate st re su lt of the Cre ation.
The fact that m ore and m ore of the wond e rs of 
Creation are be ing d isclose d is of d ire ct conce rn to 
M ankind .
Science and re ligion can be com pare d with two 
wind ows in a hou se , throu gh which we can obse rve 
the world arou nd u s or ou r ne ighbours. (The re are 
othe r wind ows to be fou nd in the hou se : Art, Lite ­
ratu re and History). Whateve r we m ay se e throu gh 
the wind ows of this im aginary hou se , it m u st fit in 
with the m od e l we have of the U nive rse and our 
place in it.
Where it d oe s not fit, we m u st alter the m od e l, 
alter ou r aim  and try to incre ase ou r ability to u nd e r­
stand the Cre ation.
In ou r m od e rn socie ty it wou ld appe ar that m any 
pe ople think that the ad vance s m ad e by science  
have cau se d su ch things as religiou s be lie f to be ­
com e ou t-of-place and old -fashione d . The y cannot 
u nd e rstand why we shou ld "be lie ve” in som e thing, 
when science can te ll u s that we "know" so m u ch. 
The sim ple answe r to this asse rtion is that we are 
aware of m ore of natu re’s m yste rie s tod ay than 
pe ople we re be fore the ad ve nt of scie ntific re se arch. 
The re is absolu tely no re ason to be lieve that God  
cannot re tain His place in ou r m od e rn tim e s in the 
sam e way as be fore we be gan to e xam ine His Cre a­
tion with te le scope and ion-acce lerators.
Even thou gh scie nce is no re ligion, it is, by nature 
of its assu m ptions, its application and its se arch for 
the tru th, a re ligiou s fu nction. The Cre ator re ve als 
Him se lf throu gh His Creations. As Charle s A. Cou l­
son says: "Scie nce he lps u s to cre ate a picture of 
God ". We m u st rem em be r that scie nce only e xists 
be cau se the re are pe ople , and its conce pts e xist 
only in pe ople 's u nd erstand ing. Behind these con­
ce pts lie s re ality, which God can reve al to u s.

The y are not ind e pend ent of e ach other. It is ju st

ENDL ESSNESS OF THE U NIVER SE.
M anned space -flights are pione e r works. Bu t u ntil 
now they have only be gu n to ope n the d oor ou t 
toward the e nd le ssness of the U nive rse .
That which we can se e of the m yste rie s of the 
U nive rse throu gh the crack in that d oor only con­
firm s ou r be lie f in its Creator. M ankind with its 
lim ited u nd e rstand ing cannot com prehe nd an om ni­
pre sent, alm ighty, all-knowing and e te rnal God .
Every attem pt to cre ate a picture of God and red ­
u ce Him  so that He can be com pre he nd e d offe rs 
bu t fu rther proof of His Gre atne ss. I be lie ve it be st 
if one , throu gh Faith, acce pts God as a proof of 
Good will, which throu ghou t history m anife sts itse lf 
m ore and m ore as the ability of M ankind to u nd e r­
stand , grows.
It gives pe ace of m ind to think of God as the 
Father of all, and the resu ltant thou ght, that all m e n 
are brothe rs, is an e thical gu id e -line .
Scie ntists only know that in nature nothing is d es­
troye d withou t be ing conve rte d into e nergy. N ot e ve n 
the tinie st particle can d isappear withou t le aving a 
trace . N atu re knows nothing of annihilation, only 
change . Wou ld God have had le ss consid e ration for 
His M aste rpie ce , the Hu m an Sou l?
For m e im m ortality m e ans a continu ation of our 
spiritu al e xiste nce afte r d e ath.
M ankind has had a be lie f in a life afte r d eath 
since the d awn of history. This has be e n as e sse ntial 
part of the prim itive cu ltu re s' religions and it has 
be e n prese rved in highe r d e ve loped re ligions and  
philosophie s.
The significance of this is of far m ore im portance 
than the pronou nce m e nts of philosophers and the o­
logians about what we can e xpe ct when we le ave 
this world . From  the d awn of tim e the conce ption of 
im m ortality has had its influ e nce on u ntold m illions 
of pe ople .
THE SOU L DIVIDES M ANKIND FR OM  
OTHER CR EATIONS.
The sou l se parate s M an from the anim al. An 
anim al’s actions are d ictate d by its inborn im pu lses, 
i.e. hunge r, fe ar and se lf-pre se rvation. The se im -
othe r plane ts. I re told m uch of what I had writte n 
in m y se cond book. The m ajor qu e stions of ou r con­
fe re nce d e alt with ou r fu tu re in ou te r space .
Aware ne ss of tim e was lost as we all gre w inter­
e ste d in the conve rsation abou t ou ter space . What 
be gan as a forty-five m inute inte rview lasted two 
hou rs. Finally the Qu e e n rem ind ed m e that m y le ct­
u re starte d in le ss than an hou r. Inte re st was so 
gre at in the topic, if it had not be e n for the le ctu re , 
we cou ld have ke pt talking for hou rse .
Whe n the Qu e e n re m ind e d m e of the tim e , I arose 
and we all shook hand s in a ve ry frie nd ly m anne r. 
I was d e e ply im pre sse d with the firm  since re grasp 
of He r M aje sty and the Prince . The spoke sm an for 
the Prince e scorte d m e to the car. Du ring the con­
fe rence he had stated he wou ld like to take a trip 
* with the space people and he re peated the re qu e st 
as we d e sce nd e d the ste ps to the waiting car.
As we were le aving the Palace grou nd s, I notice d  
a large grou p of pe ople stand ing across the high- 
/ way and facing the Palace . As the car cam e throu gh 
the gate, m any of these pe ople gave the fam iliar 
salute . Possibly the y only wanted to ge t a look at 
the com m on m an who had be e n grante d a private  
inte rvie w with the Qu ee n, and whom  the pre ss had  
d e scribed as an "obje ctionable” visitor. On the fast 
trip back to the hote l, I notice d crowd s of pe ople  
along the highway, salu ting as we passe d .
Arriving at the hote l, we fou nd a car waiting to 
take m e to the le cture at The Hagu e . The Qu e en’s 
chau ffe u r aske d if he m ight atte nd the le ctu re and  
was grante d pe rm ission to d o so.
Du e to the long inte rvie w at the Palace , I arrive d  
twenty m inu te s late at the le cture hall where a cap­
acity crowd was waiting. The pe ople pre se nt we re  
fille d with cu riosity and anticipation in re gard to m y 
m e e ting with Qu e e n Ju liana. Re porte rs e spe cially 
we re insiste nt that I give the m  all the d e tails. This I 
cou ld not d o, for the m e e ting had be e n on a le ve l of 
d ignity that d enied m e the privile ge of spe aking 
u ntil the Qu e e n spoke first. All I cou ld say was: 
"The Qu e e n was ve ry kind , and if there we re m ore 
pe ople like he r the world wou ld be a be tter place 
to live in.” A tre m e nd ou s bu rst of applau se took 
place , and from  the re on the le cture proce e d e d as 
norm al.
After the le ctu re , the re porte rs crowd e d arou nd  
m e asking, ’’What d id the Qu e e n say?” ”lt is the 
Qu ee n’s honor to spe ak first,” I re plie d . This m ad e 
the pre ss ve ry d issatisfie d with m e . Som e we nt so 
far as to write u p a fictitiou s interview, com ple te 
with qu e stions and answe rs.
Whe n I re tu rned to m y hote l I was gratefu l that no 
one knew where I was, for now I cou ld relax and go 
ove r the e vents of the d ay.
A rad io was in m y room , and the ne xt m orning I 
tu ne d it to the BBC since I cou ld not u nd e rstand  
the Du tch of local stations. On an e arly-m orning 
program  calle d The N e ws of Eu rope , I was ve ry 
m u ch su rprise d to he ar a report from  a Ru ssian sci­
e ntist stating that the m oon was not com pose d of 
volcanic d u st, bu t rathe r of granite form ations sim ­
ilar to Earth. M any gre en spots that looke d like  
ve ge tation had be e n obse rve d on the othe r sid e of 
the m oon. This confirm e d som e of the things I had  
told the Que en d u ring ou r two-hou r confe re nce .
I was cu riou s to know ju st how the Ru ssians had  
gained this inform ation. M y frie nd s and I d iscu sse d  
the possibilities late r that m orning. Was it possible  
that a Ru ssian had m ad e a trip as I had , or d id the y 
rece ive the inform ation from  the ir m oon shot that 
we nt into orbit arou nd the su n? (Inform ation re ce ive d  
at the tim e of this writing se em s to confirm  that the y 
d id .)
Before the m orning was ove r I was aske d if I 
wou ld acce pt an inte rview with Fox M ovie tone in 
d owntown Hagu e. I wou ld be calle d for and taken to 
the appointe d place so I agree d .
The se le cte d place was a large hote l in the ce ntre 
of town. Our car was parked across the stre e t from  
the bu ild ing. I was told to walk across the stre e t and  
e nte r the hote l. Cam era we re re ad y and se t for ope ­
ration, bu t I had to rehe arse the walk se ve ral tim e s 
be fore pictu res we re finally taken. In the final take , 
the large glass d oors, fram e d in brass, ope ne d au to­
m atically and I e nte re d the hote l.
I was gree te d by m any pe ople , includ ing the m an­
age r of the hote l, and re ce ive d the cu stom ary salute . 
This was not photographed . I was taken to a large 
room  where cam e ras and sou nd e qu ipm e nt we re in 
place . He re I was se ate d be sid e a sm all m ahogany 
table which he ld a bou qu e t of Am e rican Beau ty 
rose s. M y inte rrogator was se ated on m y right. His 
first qu e stion was: ’’The world wants to know what 
the Qu e e n had to say.”
M y answe r was that He r M aje sty and His Royal 
Highne ss we re d e e ply inte re ste d in the fu ture of 
ou ter space d e velopm e nt. The inte rrogator was ve ry 
d issatisfie d with m y re ply and trie d to ge t m e to 
re late ou r conve rsation in som e d e tail. Whe n I ref­
u se d , he hu rrie d throu gh the othe r qu e stions, and the 
ne ws confe rence was ove r. I was told this newsree l 
wou ld be shown all over the world , bu t I have no 
reports of it e ve r having be e n shown.
It is inte resting to note that, after m y visit to the 
Palace , whe re ve r I we nt in Holland I re ceive d the 
salu te from  those who re cognise d m e . Pe rhaps this 
is a cu stom ary honor paid to one who has be e n 
re ceive d by the Qu ee n.

The scientists of all nations calle d u pon the m il­

"The lightning bolt is create d from  invisible par­

possible for the m illions of tons of d e bris that have

This picture ale rte d m e to the possibility that rad ­

fantasy, others think that initially it had som e 
m eaning. Two ce ntu rie s ago the m yste ry attracte d  
the Ge rm an astronom e r, Johan Keple r, while m ore 
rece ntly, scie ntists he ld an inte rnational sym posiu m  
to d iscuss the m atte r.
Bu t ne ithe r Ke ple r nor conte m porary scie ntists 
fou nd the ke y to the proble m , which m ay tu rn ou t to 
have an altogether u nexpe cte d solu tion.
In antiqu ity and the M id d le Age s hum an im aginat­
ion was stirre d by an u nusu al star, now be lie ve d to 
be the Star of Be thle hem . The star was alle ge d to 
be able to m ove and stop.
From  that le t u s tu rn to the Christian Apocrypha- 
books banne d by Church ce nsorship from  se rvice s 
and religiou s read ing. The Apocrypha re fle cts m an’s 
e fforts to e xplain the m ost d ram atic m yste rie s of life . 
The se books som e tim e s stand in d ire ct contrad iction 
of Chu rch-approve d te xts.
A fam iliar one about e arly Christianity is calle d  
’’The Tale Abou t the Thre e M agi”. The original ve rs­
ion m ust have be e n writte n in Latin in the m id d le  
of the third ce ntu ry at the e arlie st, and later trans­
lated into m any langu age s. A 15th-ce ntu ry Bye lo­
ru ssian translation m ad e five ce ntu rie s be fore the 
space e ra contains a highly u nusu al inte rpre tation of 
the tale . The star, it says, was watche d by astron­
om e rs (this is the actu al word u se d ) in m any Orie ntal 
cou ntrie s. Once it appeare d at night and ’’lit u p the 
whole of the sky as the su n d oes.” The n the star 
hu ng ove r M ou nt Vans for a whole d ay, afte r which 
it alighte d on the m ou ntain like an e agle.
The te xt contains a re fe rence to "ce rtain books” 
which claim  that Christ cam e d own from  that star. 
"Bu t it was d iffe re nt from  the one pictured in our 
chu rche s. It had wings, the kind an e agle has, and  
m any long rays.’’, which se nt it m oving in a circle 
when it d e sce nd e d u pon M ou nt Vans.
This ve rsion of the old story u ne xpe cte d ly introd ­
u ce s a ne w im age and a ne w id ea, both sharply at 
variance with the chu rch te xts. Withou t qu e stion, the 
apocryphal ve rsion is fantastic. Bu t it is hard ly m ore 
fantastic than the approve d canonic ve rsion. What 
was at the basis of the au thor’s fantasy? That, too, 
is shroud ed in m yste ry.
ANGEL S IN FL YING M ACHINES.
The De chany M onaste ry in Kosovskaya M e te hia, 
southern Yu goslavia, was bu ilt in the first half of the 
14th ce ntu ry, and by 13 50 containe d nu m e rou s fre sc­
oe s on su bje cts from  the Old and N e w Te stam e nts.
In the spring of 19 64 m ore frescoe s we re fou nd in 
the m onaste ry. The Yu goslav m agazine Svet pu blis­
he d photographs e ntitle d : "Space ships on the De c­
hany Crucifix, Sputniks in ou r fre scoe s, Cou ld anci­
e nt icon-painte rs have d e picte d spaceships in De c­
hany?” It d id not take a jou rnalist’s im agination to 
think u p titles like the se. De chany fre scoe s actu ally 
d e pict ange ls flying in spaceships like the prese nt 
spu tniks.
Two ships are shown flying one afte r the othe r 
from  we st to e ast. Sitting in the le ad ship is a m an
withou t an ange l’s halo. He hold s an u nse e n ’’control 
colu m n” and looks behind him  as if watching the 
flight of his fe llow-spacem an. Sitting in the space­
ship following is anothe r m an, who also has nothing 
in com m on with the trad itional angel and also has 
one hand on the ’’controls”.
Both ships have stream lined bod ie s. Cle arly visible  
je ts in the ir wake acce ntu ate the im pre ssion of 
spe e d . "The saints in the flying m achine s are in the 
position of pilots”, says the m agazine .
Angels watching the flight cove r the ir e ye s and  
e ars with the ir hand s and se e m  to be backing away 
for fe ar of be ing blind e d of d e afe ne d . Be low, two 
grou ps are pictured , e ve ry face portraying su rprise , 
fe ar, or pe rplexity. The ce ntral figure re pre se nts the 
crucifie d Christ.
The fresco d epicting the Re surre ction of Christ 
looks ju st as od d . The M e ssiah looks as if he is in a 
rocke t which has not ye t be gu n to m ove , e xplains 
the Yugoslav m agazine. Ind e ed , the ve hicle looks 
ve ry m u ch like a space rocke t, with a two-wing stab­
ilize r in its u ppe r part. With his right hand Christ is 
trying to lift aboard the ship one of the pe ople  
stand ing on the grou nd be fore starting on his way 
to the he ave nly kingd om .
M onks at De chany, to whom  e xpe rts tu rne d for an 
e xplanation, re plie d that appare ntly the d rawings of 
’’ships” are pictu re s of the Su n and the M oon. 
Accord ing to N e w Te stam e nt le ge nd , Christ was 
cru cifie d d u ring a solar e clipse . But why the ”su n” 
is d e picte d rising in the we st the m onks cou ld not 
say.
One of the pape rs on the De chany m iracle re fe rs 
to a hypothe sis saying that Christ was a m an who 
cam e d own to Earth from space . The m agazine  
com m ents that su ch id e as are ’’ove rbold”, that the  
hypothesis, if confirm e d , ’’wou ld basically alte r the  
Biblical story about Christ”. The frescoe s, it is noted , 
showing obje cts obviou sly re se m bling spu tniks, ’’baff­
le laym an and spe cialist alike .”
The De chany ’’M iracle” is not u nique . An icon in 
the Church Archae ology Stud y of the M oscow The o­
logical Acad e m y, calle d The Re su rrection of Je su s * 
Christ and d ating back to the 17 th ce ntu ry, shows 
Christ in a stream lined containe r which vagu ely 
re se m ble s a space ship stand ing on the ground .
Sm oke billows from  both sid es of the containe r’s 1 
lowe r part, e nve loping the le gs of the ange ls who 
watch from  the sid e line s. Ju st as on the De chany 
fresco, Christ’s right hand lifts a m an (the chu rch 
ve rsion id e ntifie s him  with Ad am ). Eve waits for he r 
tu rn on the othe r sid e .
The icon is su rely of an apocryphal natu re . The re 
m ay have be e n a written ve rsion pre se nting a non- 
canonical vie w of Christ’s re su rre ction and asce ns­
ion, bu t if there is, nothing is known abou t it. Poss­
ibly it was d estroye d by Church ce nsors or e lse it 
d isappe are d with tim e . Or pe rhaps the m anu script

in any fie ld - it is probably this ye t u nd iscovered  
te rritory vagu e ly se e n in the d istance that sparks the

A report by a Chinese archae ologist startled the 
world when it was pu blishe d in 19 65, for he had ou t 
of old bits of knowle d ge pie ce d toge the r an am azing 
the ory of space -ships on a visit to the e arth 12 ,000

"For a qu arte r of a ce ntu ry archae ologists e xplor­

Archae ologists and d eciphe rers of ancie nt writing 
racked the ir brains trying to solve the se cret of the  
spirals. The re su lt of the rese arch by the Chine se 
archae ologist was so shatte ring that the Pe king Aca­

large am ou nt of cobalt and othe r m etals - a shaking 
d iscove ry. Fu rthe r investigation reve ale d that the 
d iscs vibrate in an u nu sual rhythm , as if the y carrie d  
an e le ctric charge or we re part of an e le ctric circu it. 
The 12 ,000 ye ar-old d iscs rem ain a challenge to 
scie nce .
Le ge nd s of ancie nt China say that sm all, gau nt, 
ye llow-face d m e n cam e d own from  the clou d s. But 
e arthly tribe sm e n fe lt a re vu lsion for the visitors,

Re ality se e m s to confirm  the le ge nd s. In som e of 
the Bayan-Kara-U la cave s archae ologists and spel­
e ologists have fou nd 12 ,000 ye ar-old ve stige s of 
grave s and ske le tons. The rem ains be long to hu m an 
be ings with hu ge craniu m s and u nd e rd e velope d ske l­

the grou nd s reporte d the y had fou nd "an e xtinct 
species of ape.” Bu t so far as is known ape s d o not 
bu ry e ach othe r in graves or write hie roglyphic sym ­
bols on stone d iscs.
What m ake s the issu e d ou bly involved is that the 
inne r walls of the cave s are covere d in m any place s 
with pictu re s of the rising su n, the m oon, and the 
stars, spaced by a m ultitud e of pe a-size d d ots (poss­

Earth in a m ountain area.
CEL ESTIAL EGGS.
Pe ru vian le ge nd has it that the ancie nt inhabitants 
of Pe ru we re born from  bronze , gold and silve r e ggs 
which had falle n from  he ave n. The tale is cite d bu t 
le ft withou t com m ent in Je an Elise e Re clu s’ fam ou s 
book "La Te rre .”
A variant of the e gg le ge nd is fe atu re d in the 
fam ous Tassili frescoe s, which we re fou nd in the 
heart of the Sahara by a French lie utenant nam e d  
Bre nand . Shortly afte rward s the place was e xam ine d  
by a Fre nch e xpe d ition le d by He nri Lotte , who late r 
wrote The Se arch for the Fre scoe s of Tassili. In 
ad d ition to pictu re s of anim als and hu nting sce ne s, 
the fre scoe s d e pict strange figure s d re sse d in what 
looks like spacesu its and spherical he lm e ts. The 
he lm e ts are d e finite ly attache d to the su its, which 
e voke no associations with ritu al he ad d re ss or hu nt­
ing gear. N or is the re any association with the hu nt­
e rs who, as som e scholars assu m e , u sed ostrich e gg­
shells for he lm e ts. Lotte calle d the e nigm atic figures 
M artians.
De scribing the ancie nt d rawings on the cave walls 
the French e xplore r says that one of the m  d e picts 
"a m an appearing from  an e gg-shape d obje ct cov­
e red with conce ntric circle s. The object rese m ble s 
an e gg, or possibly a snail.”
So the Pe ru vian le ge nd and the Tassili fre scoe s 
se e m  to have m u ch in com m on. Bu t the paralle l d oe s 
not e nd the re . At a later d ate, in ye t anothe r part of 
the world , the sam e su bje ct was tre ated by ancie nt 
Gre e k scu lptors, ce rtain of whom  portraye d Castor 
and Pollu x of Dioscu ria, as we ll as He le n and N e m e ­
sis, with rem nants of e gg-she lls on their he ad s, for 
accord ing to Gree k m ythology the y arose from  
ce le stial e ggs.
How d id the od d id ea of m an's birth from  an e gg 
take shape ? Perhaps by analogy with bird s or fish? 
Bu t why falling from  the sky? One Latin Am erican 
le ge nd says that e ggs d roppe d d own from  the sky 
on d and e lions! The abse nce of any e xisting inte r­
pre tation of this art le ave s the d oor ope n for what 
m u st se e m  a fantastic assu m ption: that the le ge nd  
of the ce le stial e ggs, like any othe r m yth or le ge nd , 
cou ld have originate d from  bonafid e im pre ssions of 
an actu al e vent. An ancie nt m an m ay once have se e n 
a containe r with a hum an be ing in it d e scend from  
the sky, and im agine d that the visitor was e m erging 
from  a ce lestial e gg.

D ecem ber 7, 1963, I observed in the sky at M oorestown, N ew Jersey, an 
unusual object and its unusual behavior. O n D ecem ber 8, 1963, just 
2h hours later at Elkton, M aiyland, the Pan A m erican A ircraft with 73 
passengers and a crew of eight perished when this aircraft exploded in 
m id air and crashed.
I sent a tape recording of the observation I had m ade on D ecem ber 7, 
to M r. J. Edgar H oover and associated this object with the crash of 
this plane. M r. H oover inform ed m e that the Civil A eronautics Board 
was investigating this disaster and what I had sent to him  would be 
forwarded to them , the C.A .B.
In the m onth of M arch, 1965, the C.A .B., released a report that this 
accident and cause was due to a lightning strike.
I protested to Senator Case of N ew Jersey. Senator Case m ailed m e 
the official report by the C.A .B., along with a letter by a M r. John 
D regge, D irector Com m unity and Congressional R elations.
U pon reading the O fficial C.A .B. report on this accident and also 
this letter I have com e to the conclusion that neither the C.A .B. or 
the writer of this letter know what they are talking about and have 
m issed the point com pletely.

Cage 8 line 20 to line 25 inclusive reads as follows:
(M etal splatters on the leading edge of the horizontal stabilizer were 
identified by spectrographic analysis as being form ed from  two 
different alum inum  alloys. H owever, these alloys could not be 
identified since the chem ical com position of the deposits did not 
conform  to any alloy used in the airplane. The long axis of the 
deposits varied from  18 degrees inboard to h degrees outboard.)
O n July 18, 196U , I m ade another observation, the details of which
I sent to H arvard College O bservatory, Cam bridge, M ass. (This 
sighting was A stronom ical not a m an m ade object), a copy of their 
return letter is enclosed.
Som ehow both of these observations had som ething in com m on, the 
color. I proceeded to experim ent and have arrived at the following 
conclusions, after several hundred experim ents had taken place.
I have bought books on A stronom y and also books on Flying Saucers. 
I know that this object was not astronom ical in any way nor was it a 
Flying Saucer.
This object was a cleverly design m issle cam ouflaged to appear as a 
M eteor or as a Flying Saucer.
H owever, this m issle failed to operate as planned that is how I teas 
able to see the com plete details of the color and also the design, 
which I furnished to the governm ent. I also know why this design 
was used and also why the colors were arranged as they were. M y 
experim ents proved this.
Thru m y experim ents I have been able to determ ine the following:
1. W here they get the trem endous speed from .
2. The wobbling effect they have on occasion.
3. A ppearing to oscillate about their vertical axis.
h. W hy they m ake no noise, condensation, or exhaust.
5. W hoshing and wheezing, hum m ing noise on occasions.
6. D ifferent colors they have.
7. Pulsating light.-Lum inous appearance.
8. D ifferent form s and shape.
These objects are constantly being sent over both the N orth and South 
A m ericas by R ussia. A nyone seeing these objects are instantly 
responsive as to a flying saucer. Subjected to ridicule if this be 
m entioned to any one, and/or reported to the authorities.


R ussia is well aware of this fact and has capitalized upon this fact. 
They have in this way been able to penetrate our R adar System  undetected,
To concludet
The present situation can be blam ed upon the various governm ental 
agencies who in the past have scoffed at and ridiculed people who 
have reported these sightings.
N ow we are about to pay with 60,000,000 A m erican lives or m ore. 
"Som e price".
O ur one hope is that R ussia and China will go to war against one another, 
This then will give us tim e to created an effective and efficient R adar 
system  that cannot be penetrated.
I am  not a Phophet of D oom , just an A m erican Citizen who is concerned 
about the future of A m erica.

D ear M r. Stewart:
The object you saw was a bright m eteor, som etim es 
called a "fireball" or a "bolide". A lm ost all very 
bright m eteors are sm all bodies m oving in orbits rather 
like the orbits of asteroids, and probably are fragm ents 
of asteroids. The direction of m otion of your m eteor 
Is consistent with that sort of orbit. A good m any 
bright m eteors strike the earth each day, but m ost go 
unnoticed. W e have received another report of the sam e 
m eteor from  W ilm ington, D elaware.
I am  sending your observation to the M oonwatch 
D ivision of the Sm ithsonian A strophysical O bservatory 
here in Cam bridge, which has a continuing program  for 
analysis of visual observations of bright m eteors. 
Since it is very rarely possible for the professional 
astronom er to observe these m eteors, m ost of what is 
known about them  depends on this sort of lucky chance.

D ear Sirs;
O
There currently are rum ors over the grapevine and 
in print that suggest m en with oriental features wearing dark clothes go 
around terrorizing people who have had close-up views of U FO ’s.
It is also rum ored these creatures have im personated arm ed forces officers 
and FBI investigators. They are supposed to ride around in black or dark 
autom obiles that either have old licence tags or none at all. Several are 
reported to have attem ped to run down witnesses of U FO sightings, m ade 
disturbing ^alm ost m acabre phone calls, silenced several investigators who 
were supposed to have learned som e dark secret about extraterrestial craft 
or m ission plans and opened m ail, tapped telephones and even taken pictures 
of several hom es where U FO witnesses lived.
Can you give m e any inform ation on such rum ors? O r can you 
refer m e to a source whose facilities can answer m y questions?
this inform ation will help settle som e disturbing questions 
the readers of m y articles. Personally I am  not sure at all whether I can 
fully accept these rum ours as facts. I need m ore inform ation.
A ny inform ation you supply can ease the worries of people 
who feel that the objects unknown they see in the sky m ay portend the visit 
of a m ysterious visitor.
V ^
P. S. If there are any pam phets covering the R B^s W ictions you feel I 
will need, please send them  along.

Dear Sirs
In approximately seven months or.January, 1972, certain copies of top-secret 
documents shall be sent to the New York Times as well as two other newspapers. 
These documents are related to and will be an ostentation of the involvement of the 
pentagon in the controversial ^"Unidentif ied Flying Objects" or "Flying Saucer." 
subject. It will show that not only the U.S. Air Force was involved in UFO research 
but the other military branches as well.
Analysis and the actual conclusions of the classic UFO cases shall be revealed. 
This shall be accomplished by zeroxed documents and photographs that General 
Wolfe had reviewed when he was head of the Army’s UFO support program in the 
Pentagon during the Eisenhower years.
Sorry, but it is concluded here that this is the best course to take because 
we feel that the secret UFO investigations are parallel in nature to the Times- 
Pentagon Vietnam controversy. If we are wrong in taking this action, time will tel

'There are a num ber of universities and professional
scientific organizations such as the A m erican A ssociation for
the A dvancem ent of Science, which have considered U FO  
phenom ena during periodic m eetings and sem inars. In addition, 
a list of private organizations interested in aerial phenom ena

U FO FA CT SH EET
O n D ecem ber 17, 1969 the Secretary of the A ir Force 
announced the term ination of Project Blue Book, the A ir Force 
program  for the investigation of U FO s.
The decision to discontinue U FO investigations was based 
on an evaluation of a report prepared by the U niversity of 
Colorado entitled, "Scientific Study of U nidentified Flying 
O bjects;" a review of the U niversity of Colorado's report by 
the N ational A cadem y of Sciences; past U FO studies; and A ir 
Force experience investigating U FO reports during the past 
two decades.
A s a result of these investigations and studies, and 
experience gained from  investigating U FO reports since 1948, 
the conclusions of Project Blue Book are: (1) no U FO reported, 
investigated, and evaluated by the A ir Force has ever given 
any indication of threat to our national security; (2) there 
has been no evidence subm itted to or discovered by the A ir 
Force that sightings categorized as "unidentified" represent 
technological developm ents or principles beyond the range of 
present day scientific knowledge; and (3) there has been no 
evidence indicating that sightings categorized as "unidentified 
are extraterrestrial vehicles.
W ith the term ination of Project Blue Book, the A ir Force 
regulation establishing and controlling the program  for invest­
igating and analyzing U FO s was rescinded. A ll docum entation 
regarding the form er Blue Book investigation has been per­
m anently transferred to the M odern M ilitary Branch, N ational 
A rchives and R ecords Service, 8th and Pennsylvania A venue, 
W ashington, D .C. 20408, and is available for public review 
and analysis.
A ttached for your inform ation is the Project Blue Book 
sighting sum m ary for the period 1947-1969. A lso included is 
a listing of U FO -related m aterials currently available.
Since the term ination of Project Blue Book, no evidence 
has been presented to indicate that further investigation of 
U FO s by the A ir Force is warranted. In view of the consider­
able A ir Force com m itm ent of resources in the past, and the 
extrem e pressure on A ir Force funds at this tim e, there is 
no likelihood of renewed A ir Force involvem ent in this area.

Stanley Schneider of the O ffice of Science and 
Technology, W hite H ouse, telephonically contacted m e todayto
inquire as to the Bureau's procedure for handling inform ation 
received from  the public or otherwise, relating to sightings 
of U FO s. H e advised that Jody Powell of the President's staff 
has raised the question as to whether or not there is any 
coordination within the Executive Branch relating to inform ation 
concerning this subject. H e stated that the U .S. A ir Force had 
closed their investigation of these m atters several years ago 
and currently does nothing but refer such inform ation to 
appropriate local authorities.
A CTIO N :
any further contact
N one. For
• I advised him  that as far as the FBI is concerned
there appears to be no conceivable jurisdiction for us to conduct 
any inquiries upon receipt of inform ation relating to a U FO  
sighting and, in the absence of som e investigative jurisdiction 
based upon the inform ation furnished, that inform ation would be 
referred to the D epartm ent of the A ir Force without any action 
being taken by the Bureau.
H e thanked m e for the inform ation and stated
was necessary he would call back.
