1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,480 WKYC in Cleveland, Cleveland, Cleveland, Cleveland, Cleveland. 2 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:26,720 And it's 7-8145-15, our contact topic this evening, sightings of UFOs. 3 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:32,040 The number 7-814515 here on contact, the sightings of UFOs, as you know from time to 4 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:38,640 time here on the contact, we group around our table people who have an interest in not 5 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,200 only in UFOs but also in investigating UFOs. 6 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:47,600 And they've all told me that 1965 indeed was a banner year as far as sightings of flying 7 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,120 saucers goes. 8 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:53,200 More UFOs may not have been seen but it's the fact that more sightings were reported 9 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,920 anyway to various UFO report centers across the country. 10 00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:00,320 So tonight on contact, well you're about the rise in the number of flying saucers being 11 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:04,040 seen around the Cleveland area and also around the country. 12 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:08,160 And if you indeed have seen one, let us know about it by calling 7-814515. 13 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:12,200 We'll also be answering your questions, taking your comments and exchanging conversation 14 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,800 with you on the topic of sightings of UFOs. 15 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,880 In the contact studio this evening will be Mr. Rick Hilberg, one of the directors of the 16 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:25,400 American UFO Committee, the editor of UFO Magazine, Alan Manick, head of the UFO Report 17 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:30,080 Center for Cleveland Ufology Project and Earl Neff, lecturer on flying saucers and a member 18 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:31,520 of NICAP. 19 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:37,760 On the contact line to Pennsylvania, Mr. George Fawcett, active member of NICAP and of APRO 20 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:38,760 organization. 21 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:44,440 And later on joining us after 11 o'clock will be WKYC weatherman and announcer Ken Goodman. 22 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:48,880 About two years ago, a little over two years ago I guess it was, Ken Goodman here on this 23 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:54,800 program told us about I guess one of the best descriptions of a UFO sighting that he was 24 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,600 involved in that I have ever heard. 25 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:01,800 So we've asked Ken Goodman to join us again after his 11 o'clock or 11-10 weather forecast 26 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,200 up here in the studio and re-describe that event that happened at Fort Jackson, South 27 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,480 Carolina to you. 28 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,160 If you'd like to be reserving your place on the line, the area code for those of you 29 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:16,160 outside the state of Ohio is 216, the number 7-814515. 30 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,960 Now before we get into a general discussion and get some of your comments, I'd like to 31 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,200 hear from a panelist both here and on the contact line. 32 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,400 First the head of the UFO report center for Cleveland Ufology Project, Mr. Allen Manick. 33 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,400 Good evening, Harv. 34 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:29,400 Good evening. 35 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:34,440 The Cleveland Ufology Project is a non-profit fact finding group organized for the purpose 36 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:39,160 of gathering data, study and analysis and dissemination of information pertaining to 37 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,160 aerial phenomena. 38 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:47,040 1965 was perhaps the banner year in ufology as far goes. 39 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:54,640 We've had many sightings, an average of 7.7 unconfirmed sightings of aerial objects. 40 00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:59,600 Perhaps the biggest one last year and perhaps the biggest one or the major report was 9 41 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,160 October 1965. 42 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,040 That's October 9th. 43 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:08,720 Reports came through to report center number of 2340861 and the telephone was ringing off 44 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:09,720 its hook. 45 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,920 8.45 p.m. the first phone call came through. 46 00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:15,360 It came from Wade Avenue in Cleveland. 47 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:19,040 The second phone call came through from Vega, the third from West 61st in Lorraine. 48 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,520 We saw a trend. 49 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:26,560 Before the night was over, and the night meaning 12.45 in the evening and the next morning, 50 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,400 42 phone calls came in, all reporting the same object. 51 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,040 These people did not know each other. 52 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,520 These people all report the same thing. 53 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:39,880 Many of these people sent in pictures of it as drawings, not actual photos. 54 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,200 The night was a very drizzly night. 55 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:43,940 It was cold. 56 00:03:43,940 --> 00:03:45,140 We called Hopkins Airport. 57 00:03:45,140 --> 00:03:50,060 The Hopkins Airport checked with us was 2,200 feet, the level of air. 58 00:03:50,060 --> 00:03:54,980 The rain was a very bad drizzle, like I said before, and this object was underneath it. 59 00:03:54,980 --> 00:03:59,260 K-Sinstitute Technology was also informed. 60 00:03:59,260 --> 00:04:02,840 Radio stations WKYC were also informed. 61 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:07,420 The object was actually round disc shaped object with a superstructure on top. 62 00:04:07,420 --> 00:04:11,000 The lights were of revolving order or sequential in order. 63 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,480 Everyone had the same story of this. 64 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,860 Everything was seen protruding from this object. 65 00:04:15,860 --> 00:04:20,800 These people were standing, either waiting for buses, being driven by cars or in automobiles 66 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,580 standing outside, but they saw this object. 67 00:04:23,580 --> 00:04:27,380 The most important thing about this object, that at arms length, it was the size of a 68 00:04:27,380 --> 00:04:28,380 fountain pen. 69 00:04:28,380 --> 00:04:31,760 That's roughly about four and a half to five inches in diameter at arms length, which would 70 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,860 have to be low. 71 00:04:33,860 --> 00:04:38,460 What other sightings that you had at the reports throughout 1965 were outstanding, at least 72 00:04:38,460 --> 00:04:39,780 as far as you're concerned? 73 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,960 Well, really the most outstanding was when I just reported on, but we've had many reports 74 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,120 of objects that were confirmed to be unidentified. 75 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:52,000 For the simple reason, people have tracked these things from, say, Chagrin Falls, Wycliffe. 76 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:57,760 We get another report call from West Side of Cleveland, all with the same type of object. 77 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:03,680 Checking with the satellites, the Air Force, Hopkins Airport, Berk Lakefront, we have no 78 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,880 and Weather Report, naturally. 79 00:05:05,900 --> 00:05:09,460 We have no other confirmation of this, but of the research part of it. 80 00:05:09,460 --> 00:05:12,300 The main project is, like I said, gathering data. 81 00:05:12,300 --> 00:05:17,620 Most of the reports that come into the Youthful Report Center, do they check out to be authentic 82 00:05:17,620 --> 00:05:20,580 or do they wind up being something that's explainable? 83 00:05:20,580 --> 00:05:24,140 I'm glad you asked that, because many people say that we're a bunch of nuts and we take 84 00:05:24,140 --> 00:05:25,140 in anything. 85 00:05:25,140 --> 00:05:28,340 We do take all calls, by the way. 86 00:05:28,340 --> 00:05:32,180 Most of them are stars or the satellites or an aircraft. 87 00:05:32,180 --> 00:05:33,460 We can confirm these. 88 00:05:33,460 --> 00:05:36,960 But the ones that are not confirmed, I mean, are definitely, there is some shape to them 89 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,440 other than aircraft. 90 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:39,440 There are not satellites. 91 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,200 They prove to be not inversions. 92 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,760 These have to be going down as what we call or we classify as unknown. 93 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,680 And how many totally were in Cleveland during 65? 94 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,360 You mentioned, I believe, that I didn't get the number. 95 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,360 We have an average of 7.8 a month. 96 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:53,360 7.8 a month. 97 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:54,360 Right. 98 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:55,360 And this is a high. 99 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:56,360 Yes, it is. 100 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,120 What about 85, 90 for the whole year? 101 00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,120 At least, yes. 102 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,480 All right, we'll get to your questions. 103 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,580 7.8 1-4515 very shortly. 104 00:06:04,580 --> 00:06:09,500 On the contact line to Pennsylvania, an active member of Nightcap and of April, and a Returnee 105 00:06:09,500 --> 00:06:13,420 here to contact him, and to join us about a year ago, and we had a very exciting program 106 00:06:13,420 --> 00:06:14,420 with him at that time. 107 00:06:14,420 --> 00:06:18,740 We'd like for him to bring us up to date on, in his own opinion, what's new in sightings 108 00:06:18,740 --> 00:06:19,740 on UFOs. 109 00:06:19,740 --> 00:06:20,740 Mr. George Bossett. 110 00:06:20,740 --> 00:06:21,740 Mark, 1965 was a bad year. 111 00:06:21,740 --> 00:06:22,740 And when you speak of flying solstice or identify flying objects, they're both the same thing. 112 00:06:22,740 --> 00:06:23,740 Just, you know, the same thing. 113 00:06:23,740 --> 00:06:30,740 Just names that are given by the Air Force and by the people who accept them as common 114 00:06:30,740 --> 00:06:31,740 terminology. 115 00:06:31,740 --> 00:06:37,240 But the Air Force, according to the report I received the other day, had around 800 sightings 116 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,240 that they admitted, and about 19 or 20 they couldn't explain. 117 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:49,240 The National Investigations in Washington, which is doing a tremendous job on this, had 118 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,240 over 2,500 sightings of which 400 were very substantial. 119 00:06:53,240 --> 00:07:00,240 Now, what was more interesting to me was the report and Look magazine, February the 22nd, 120 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:06,040 1966 issue, which dealt with the sightings up in Vector, New Hampshire, where over 60 121 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:11,160 eyewitnesses reported a cigar-shaped object with blinking red lights on it that came down 122 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:17,740 and landed and chased police automobiles and other pedestrians down the road outside the 123 00:07:17,740 --> 00:07:20,860 small towns and the big cities also up in New Hampshire. 124 00:07:20,860 --> 00:07:25,660 And this was documented by a newspaper man and written up in many magazines. 125 00:07:25,660 --> 00:07:31,740 And we found it very interesting because this was not published till February the 22nd of 126 00:07:31,740 --> 00:07:32,740 1966. 127 00:07:32,740 --> 00:07:36,420 And we had a sighting right here in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania of an automobile chase on December 128 00:07:36,420 --> 00:07:42,240 the 10th with an identical sighting with the round red lights around the outer edge. 129 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:47,540 And same time, about three weeks later, there was a moving photograph taken of these objects 130 00:07:47,540 --> 00:07:53,180 out in Arizona, one of the other Midwestern states, identical description in color. 131 00:07:53,180 --> 00:07:56,180 This was one of the better sightings here in Pennsylvania. 132 00:07:56,180 --> 00:08:02,500 And as a result of over, for the past 18 months, we've received over 80 reports of landings, 133 00:08:02,500 --> 00:08:05,060 40 photographs being taken. 134 00:08:05,060 --> 00:08:09,100 And I know at least 48 to 50 magazine articles have been published on the subject. 135 00:08:09,100 --> 00:08:11,020 It was about a year. 136 00:08:11,020 --> 00:08:15,700 And here in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, we started a Pennsylvania New Jersey Two-Stake UFO Study 137 00:08:15,700 --> 00:08:16,700 Group. 138 00:08:16,700 --> 00:08:23,420 And we now have over 123 members, pilots, astronomers, amateur scowl doctors, you might say, also 139 00:08:23,420 --> 00:08:28,300 doctors and lawyers and people from all walks of life who are vitally interested in this 140 00:08:28,300 --> 00:08:29,300 phenomenon. 141 00:08:29,300 --> 00:08:35,340 Just recently, several weeks ago over in New Jersey, above the Wanaki Reservoir, a round 142 00:08:35,340 --> 00:08:40,340 lighting object came down and cast a nine foot circle on the lake, Reservoir. 143 00:08:40,340 --> 00:08:44,780 This object was seen by approximately 200 spectators, including the civilian defense 144 00:08:44,780 --> 00:08:49,540 director, the mayor of the city, the city editor, the state police. 145 00:08:49,540 --> 00:08:54,100 And then the object moved over the local high school building and hovered for a moment. 146 00:08:54,100 --> 00:08:58,260 They turned to the lake, the reservoir, and had to bend around this area for two hours, 147 00:08:58,260 --> 00:09:00,660 shot straight up with tremendous noise. 148 00:09:00,660 --> 00:09:06,500 This report was widely reported in newspapers here in Pennsylvania, New Jersey. 149 00:09:06,500 --> 00:09:10,100 The next day, the Air Force said that the object which had gone through these maneuvers 150 00:09:10,100 --> 00:09:15,780 and made this tremendous noise and had cast a searchlight beam down on the lake was the 151 00:09:15,780 --> 00:09:17,660 result of the planet Venus. 152 00:09:17,660 --> 00:09:22,580 Now, how well you can get, I don't know, but some of the explanations are far more fantastic 153 00:09:22,580 --> 00:09:24,220 than what's been seen. 154 00:09:24,220 --> 00:09:28,420 The only other thing I'd like to mention here is that we feel like here in the Pennsylvania 155 00:09:28,420 --> 00:09:33,380 we have established a definite correlation to many of the power failures and blackouts 156 00:09:33,380 --> 00:09:36,300 when these unidentified flying objects have occurred. 157 00:09:36,300 --> 00:09:41,980 We feel like that these electromagnetic force fields that evidently surround these objects 158 00:09:41,980 --> 00:09:48,260 have tremendous radiation effects and can't stall automobile engines, aircraft motors, 159 00:09:48,260 --> 00:09:50,060 as well as giant power stations. 160 00:09:50,060 --> 00:09:55,740 And during the northeast blackout, as well as other blackouts in Nevada and down in Brazil 161 00:09:55,740 --> 00:10:00,700 and up in Canada and other places, it has been documented many times, and even in Mexico 162 00:10:00,700 --> 00:10:06,420 and Texas, that unidentified flying objects happened present when power failure is occurring. 163 00:10:06,420 --> 00:10:10,980 So we've had a big year and a lot of excitement up and down the east coast as well as across 164 00:10:10,980 --> 00:10:13,180 the country and around the world. 165 00:10:13,180 --> 00:10:16,780 Mr. George Fossett on the Countdown Glyne 2, Pennsylvania, you'll get your chance to ask 166 00:10:16,780 --> 00:10:21,660 your questions of Mr. Fossett and my other guests and to make your own observations on 167 00:10:21,660 --> 00:10:24,900 sightings of unidentified flying objects. 168 00:10:24,900 --> 00:10:30,980 The number is 7-814515, area code if you're calling long distances, 216. 169 00:10:30,980 --> 00:10:35,820 Another Returnee here on contact is good to have you back again on a UFO roundtable type 170 00:10:35,820 --> 00:10:38,340 program, sightings of UFOs. 171 00:10:38,340 --> 00:10:43,340 One of the directors of the American UFO Committee and an editor for UFO Magazine, Rick Hilberg. 172 00:10:43,340 --> 00:10:45,780 Go to be back, Harv. 173 00:10:45,780 --> 00:10:50,420 As Mr. Fossett and the others in the studio did mention, 1965 was indeed a banner year 174 00:10:50,420 --> 00:10:52,380 for UFO reports. 175 00:10:52,380 --> 00:10:58,620 The main flap, which is a large number of UFO sightings, started in July and probably 176 00:10:58,620 --> 00:11:05,380 one of the most spectacular cases ever was reported on July 3rd when Mario John Barrera, 177 00:11:05,380 --> 00:11:11,300 who is a commander of a Chilean base in an article, radioed to his defense minister that 178 00:11:11,300 --> 00:11:16,340 there was something real causing electromagnetic interference on their apparatus. 179 00:11:16,340 --> 00:11:20,380 And in Buenos Aires, the Navy issued a communique saying that the object had been photographed 180 00:11:20,380 --> 00:11:22,880 at Argentina's base. 181 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:29,580 This object was lens shaped and was yellow, red, and green and the colors would alternate. 182 00:11:29,580 --> 00:11:33,820 A Chilean corporal took the pictures, but they were in total darkness. 183 00:11:33,820 --> 00:11:39,460 About this time the photos should be developed and we're waiting to see any results. 184 00:11:39,460 --> 00:11:45,460 After that on the 11th of July in Portugal, strange objects were sighted in Portugal and 185 00:11:45,460 --> 00:11:46,460 the Azores. 186 00:11:46,460 --> 00:11:51,820 The Azores, an object stopped electromagnetic clocks. 187 00:11:51,820 --> 00:11:58,020 The first reported object appeared near the northern city of a porto where a man, Emmanuel 188 00:11:58,020 --> 00:12:03,420 Fernandes and his wife first saw something like a luminous flattened balloon. 189 00:12:03,420 --> 00:12:07,300 Fernandes, who was an employee of the Fishermen's Union, said that the strange object at first 190 00:12:07,300 --> 00:12:11,540 looked like a flattened balloon, but then when they both watched it looked like a plate, 191 00:12:11,540 --> 00:12:14,140 a typical disc shaped report. 192 00:12:14,140 --> 00:12:20,580 It was luminous, it was red, it stopped at a rather high altitude for three minutes 193 00:12:20,580 --> 00:12:24,780 and then it sped off at an incredible velocity. 194 00:12:24,780 --> 00:12:32,820 In South Carolina on July 12th, a UFO was reported by two gentlemen in a car. 195 00:12:32,820 --> 00:12:38,020 It was low, it was described as real bright, it flew alongside of their car. 196 00:12:38,020 --> 00:12:44,100 Right here in the Cleveland area in Pepper Pike on again July 12th, Mrs. William Carahus 197 00:12:44,100 --> 00:12:49,420 and her 11-year-old son Grant saw a brilliant UFO hovering over Shaker Boulevard. 198 00:12:49,420 --> 00:12:53,780 It was cigar shaped and metallic. 199 00:12:53,780 --> 00:12:59,540 And in Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Maryland on the 12th of July, a gigantic 200 00:12:59,540 --> 00:13:03,100 unidentified flying object was sighted and photographed. 201 00:13:03,100 --> 00:13:07,220 The expert said it was a weather balloon, but if it was a balloon no one was able to 202 00:13:07,220 --> 00:13:08,980 find out where it came from. 203 00:13:08,980 --> 00:13:13,820 The FAA, which usually is informed on such matters, said that it had no balloons up at 204 00:13:13,820 --> 00:13:18,380 that time and the only one that day was launched at Tyra, Texas, which couldn't have been over 205 00:13:18,380 --> 00:13:19,380 the area. 206 00:13:19,380 --> 00:13:21,740 There were many reports. 207 00:13:21,740 --> 00:13:28,780 A Fred Kirsted at the Akron-Canton satellite tracking station said it was definitely Venus. 208 00:13:28,780 --> 00:13:32,420 The FAA said they didn't know what it was. 209 00:13:32,420 --> 00:13:37,980 On the 17th of July in Uruguay, a youth said he saw a four-legged object touch down for 210 00:13:37,980 --> 00:13:44,260 two minutes in broad daylight on a beach just out across from the River Platte. 211 00:13:44,260 --> 00:13:49,580 He was quoted as saying that it shot skyward in a blinding flash when a tug tutored its 212 00:13:49,580 --> 00:13:50,580 siren. 213 00:13:50,580 --> 00:13:57,540 In Anaheim, California on July 21, a woman and her 13-year-old son reported that they 214 00:13:57,540 --> 00:14:01,780 saw a round color-changing UFO in the skies over Orange County. 215 00:14:01,780 --> 00:14:08,380 This is Stefan Palo, said the object was first spotted by your son at about 8.55 p.m. when 216 00:14:08,380 --> 00:14:11,380 he was playing at Maxwell Park. 217 00:14:11,380 --> 00:14:15,820 They went outside and saw the object traveling in a straight line to the northwest. 218 00:14:15,820 --> 00:14:18,700 It gave a white glow, but it slowly changed colors. 219 00:14:18,700 --> 00:14:22,460 It had arms of light, like rays. 220 00:14:22,460 --> 00:14:29,340 The big sighting, which made the headlines all across the nation, happened on July 31 221 00:14:29,340 --> 00:14:34,540 and August 1 and 2 and onward. 222 00:14:34,540 --> 00:14:39,780 Unidentified blips were spotted on the radar screen at the Wichita Weather Bureau, and which 223 00:14:39,780 --> 00:14:44,980 confirmed the presence of unidentified flying objects in the southwestern part of the country. 224 00:14:44,980 --> 00:14:49,900 After that, visual sightings came in from Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Kansas. 225 00:14:49,900 --> 00:14:54,460 The Oklahoma Highway Patrol, said the Tinker Air Force Base at Oklahoma City, was tracking 226 00:14:54,460 --> 00:14:57,140 as many as four on radar. 227 00:14:57,140 --> 00:15:01,980 And Tinker, to this day, refused to confirm or deny the report. 228 00:15:01,980 --> 00:15:07,220 A Wichita Weatherman said he tracked them at different times between 2 and 6 a.m., mostly 229 00:15:07,220 --> 00:15:09,820 on the south side of the city, he said. 230 00:15:09,820 --> 00:15:12,540 And again, I quote, I don't know what we've got here. 231 00:15:12,540 --> 00:15:16,860 It looks about the size of a sessioner on the screen. 232 00:15:16,860 --> 00:15:23,140 A spokesman at McConnell Air Force Base confirmed that the FAA had tracked them, but noted that 233 00:15:23,140 --> 00:15:28,140 the FAA radar covers only a 30-mile radius, while the Weather Bureau covers all of Kansas. 234 00:15:28,140 --> 00:15:30,460 So indeed, something was spotted. 235 00:15:30,460 --> 00:15:34,540 Deputy Sheriff Everett Tucker of Wellington, Kansas, said he and his wife saw one about 236 00:15:34,540 --> 00:15:37,560 4.50 a.m., moving rapidly to the north. 237 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,580 He said it had a red vapor trail behind it. 238 00:15:40,580 --> 00:15:46,260 And sightings of four mysterious craft in a diamond formation came from Chickasha, Cushing, 239 00:15:46,260 --> 00:15:48,580 Shawnee, and Chandler, Oklahoma. 240 00:15:48,580 --> 00:15:53,820 Police officers there in their patrol car sighted them, and they changed altitude and 241 00:15:53,820 --> 00:15:59,500 colors from red to white to blue-green, and they seemed to move from side to side at times. 242 00:15:59,500 --> 00:16:03,500 These are just a few of the many objects reported in 1965. 243 00:16:03,500 --> 00:16:05,980 And we'll get to more reports during 1965. 244 00:16:05,980 --> 00:16:10,260 In just a moment, and you'll meet my fourth guest here at the Context Studio. 245 00:16:10,260 --> 00:16:15,380 This is 8C with airline hostess Ella Tallya cruising high above the Atlantic at 600 miles 246 00:16:15,380 --> 00:16:16,380 an hour. 247 00:16:16,380 --> 00:16:19,580 So would it make you mad if a mean little kid kept biting your leg as you walked up 248 00:16:19,580 --> 00:16:20,580 the aisle? 249 00:16:20,580 --> 00:16:24,180 No, I'd just have him to go play outside. 250 00:16:24,180 --> 00:16:27,780 Would it make you mad if a passenger spilled hot coffee all over you? 251 00:16:27,780 --> 00:16:32,860 No, I'd just scream and apologize for being in his way. 252 00:16:32,860 --> 00:16:37,460 Suppose you bought a new 66 Chevrolet and found you could have saved $300 at Humphrey 253 00:16:37,460 --> 00:16:39,060 Central right from the start. 254 00:16:39,060 --> 00:16:40,860 Would that make you mad? 255 00:16:40,860 --> 00:16:41,860 My? 256 00:16:41,860 --> 00:16:44,420 Would that make me mad? 257 00:16:44,420 --> 00:16:48,980 Save time, save steps, save money on your new Chevrolet right from the start at 7001 258 00:16:48,980 --> 00:16:49,980 Euclid Avenue. 259 00:16:49,980 --> 00:16:54,340 Humphrey Central is a big dealership that will save you important dollars on your new 260 00:16:54,340 --> 00:16:55,340 Chevrolet. 261 00:16:55,340 --> 00:16:57,260 Don't make a doubtful deal elsewhere. 262 00:16:57,260 --> 00:17:00,300 Make the best deal at Humphrey Central 7001 Euclid. 263 00:17:00,300 --> 00:17:03,220 Or a Chevrolet, bested every way. 264 00:17:03,220 --> 00:17:05,500 Humphrey Central's Chevrolet. 265 00:17:05,500 --> 00:17:08,980 Humphrey Central is Chevrolet in Cleveland. 266 00:17:08,980 --> 00:17:13,180 Sightings of unidentified flying objects are a contact topic this evening. 267 00:17:13,180 --> 00:17:16,060 I've been doing some reading today of different articles. 268 00:17:16,060 --> 00:17:23,100 One, I guess that one of the TV camera men downstairs saved for me by Jacques Vallée, 269 00:17:23,100 --> 00:17:28,220 a Frenchman who is a scientist here in America, I guess was in the last October or so issue 270 00:17:28,220 --> 00:17:29,220 of a true magazine. 271 00:17:29,220 --> 00:17:33,740 It was one of the most fantastic accounts or collections of flying saucers that I've 272 00:17:33,740 --> 00:17:34,740 ever seen. 273 00:17:34,740 --> 00:17:39,100 Here's a scientist who has scientifically tabulated the sightings that he considers at least possible 274 00:17:39,100 --> 00:17:40,900 and come to some conclusions. 275 00:17:40,900 --> 00:17:45,540 You'll perhaps get to discuss some of those conclusions as to where they come from and 276 00:17:45,540 --> 00:17:47,180 what they're doing a little later on. 277 00:17:47,180 --> 00:17:53,140 Perhaps you have your own viewpoint, which you'll get a chance to express at 7814515. 278 00:17:53,140 --> 00:17:57,260 Let me also say before you meet my next guest that a little later on about an hour from 279 00:17:57,260 --> 00:17:58,580 now we'll have a tape interview. 280 00:17:58,580 --> 00:18:02,940 I did this afternoon with a very respected gentleman, if you're a Civil War buff or have 281 00:18:02,940 --> 00:18:07,300 read the book Andersonville, which won the Pulitzer Prize some years ago. 282 00:18:07,420 --> 00:18:13,140 I talked with the author of that book, Mr. McKinley Cantor, down in Sarasota, Florida 283 00:18:13,140 --> 00:18:14,460 earlier today. 284 00:18:14,460 --> 00:18:21,660 And he reports, and this is a well-respected, dignified man of letters, a quite fascinating 285 00:18:21,660 --> 00:18:28,020 account of his own sighting of a flying saucer and some viewpoints about UFOs also being 286 00:18:28,020 --> 00:18:29,020 discussed. 287 00:18:29,020 --> 00:18:30,020 Well, we'll have that a little later on. 288 00:18:30,020 --> 00:18:31,020 Let me remind you one. 289 00:18:31,020 --> 00:18:34,460 This is WKYC Cleveland, Ohio, NBC in Cleveland. 290 00:18:34,460 --> 00:18:36,500 Viewpoints of UFOs are our contact topic this evening. 291 00:18:36,500 --> 00:18:40,740 And now our fourth guest here in the Contact Studio, lecturer on flying saucers and member 292 00:18:40,740 --> 00:18:43,420 of NYCAP, Earl Nett. 293 00:18:43,420 --> 00:18:44,420 Thank you, Harb. 294 00:18:44,420 --> 00:18:46,260 I'm delighted to be back again. 295 00:18:46,260 --> 00:18:52,740 As you remember, we started this Ufology roundtable segment of contact back on October 4th, 1962, 296 00:18:52,740 --> 00:18:59,060 and two weeks ago when you had John Forron and the lawman was discussing it, I was at 297 00:18:59,060 --> 00:19:06,780 home listening with one ear writing furiously to get down to Waynesburg to the college to 298 00:19:06,780 --> 00:19:10,500 lecture the next night, and I was very disappointed I couldn't be here, but I enjoyed every moment 299 00:19:10,500 --> 00:19:11,500 of it. 300 00:19:11,500 --> 00:19:12,500 Has it been that long? 301 00:19:12,500 --> 00:19:13,500 Four years almost? 302 00:19:13,500 --> 00:19:14,500 Almost four years. 303 00:19:14,500 --> 00:19:15,500 And I still haven't seen one. 304 00:19:15,500 --> 00:19:18,900 But I thought it was one of the greatest programs I've ever heard. 305 00:19:18,900 --> 00:19:20,980 My reactions all over have been the same. 306 00:19:20,980 --> 00:19:25,180 Downstate in Pittsburgh, everywhere, they said we've never heard anything as convincing 307 00:19:25,180 --> 00:19:26,940 as what John Forron's done. 308 00:19:26,940 --> 00:19:33,140 And I might say that the picture that is the lead picture in the Look magazine of February 309 00:19:33,140 --> 00:19:40,380 the 22nd is also the lead picture in March issue of Pageant magazine. 310 00:19:40,380 --> 00:19:46,660 And this particular picture, having been taken by James Lucci of Beaver Falls, where I'm 311 00:19:46,660 --> 00:19:52,100 going to be speaking, by the way, on the 25th of this month, the college down there, I was 312 00:19:52,100 --> 00:19:56,740 the first to show this picture publicly at Carnegie Music Hall on October 8th, and yet 313 00:19:56,740 --> 00:19:58,620 it was just taken on August the 8th. 314 00:19:58,620 --> 00:20:00,380 It's a tremendous picture. 315 00:20:00,380 --> 00:20:07,500 And as Mr. Fuller said the other night, this picture of the UFO is even more brilliant 316 00:20:07,500 --> 00:20:13,180 than the big full moon in the distance as it was photographed through the camera. 317 00:20:13,180 --> 00:20:17,500 These young men had out there that night as they were trying to photograph the moon. 318 00:20:17,500 --> 00:20:21,980 And the parts that come down from the UFO and the part that goes back from the UFO as 319 00:20:21,980 --> 00:20:29,340 it's traveling are apparently some form of ray that only the sensitive emulsion of the 320 00:20:29,340 --> 00:20:30,900 film picks up. 321 00:20:30,900 --> 00:20:39,340 I would like to say that one UFO skeptic plus one good UFO sighting, in my way of thinking, 322 00:20:39,340 --> 00:20:41,580 equals another UFO believer. 323 00:20:41,580 --> 00:20:46,260 And this again was proven the other night when Mr. Fuller was on. 324 00:20:46,260 --> 00:20:48,260 Seeing is believing. 325 00:20:48,260 --> 00:20:52,260 In fact, the late Dr. Wilbert Smith, who is in charge of Canada's project, Magnet, similar 326 00:20:52,260 --> 00:20:57,660 to our blue book, and it goes under different names now, said that he's quite certain that 327 00:20:57,660 --> 00:21:04,220 if a person, any place on the globe, would watch the sky for 30 consecutive hours, he 328 00:21:04,220 --> 00:21:07,340 would see an unidentified flying object. 329 00:21:07,340 --> 00:21:12,300 And recently, Chan Thomas, the authority on cataclysmic changes, said, if anyone wants 330 00:21:12,300 --> 00:21:16,900 to really see a flying saucer, they should go out there in the night sky, looking at 331 00:21:16,900 --> 00:21:20,500 the night sky, and fix their eyes upon a star. 332 00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:25,420 And as you watch this, you'll see, perhaps, activity around that star. 333 00:21:25,420 --> 00:21:29,260 I think that's probably one of the best ways of actually looking for UFOs. 334 00:21:29,260 --> 00:21:30,540 I've never looked for them. 335 00:21:30,540 --> 00:21:37,180 In fact, if it wasn't for our report centers and notification, we wouldn't, half the time, 336 00:21:37,180 --> 00:21:38,420 know what's going on up there. 337 00:21:38,420 --> 00:21:42,180 But one person sees it and then we immediately notify the others. 338 00:21:42,180 --> 00:21:47,500 I think it might be interesting to mention a few of the classic cases for those people 339 00:21:47,500 --> 00:21:52,300 who perhaps have never listened to this show if there are any of those. 340 00:21:52,300 --> 00:21:58,340 And of course, starting back with Kenneth Arnold, citing that was back on June 24th of 341 00:21:58,340 --> 00:22:01,580 47, he was a Boise, Idaho flyer. 342 00:22:01,580 --> 00:22:05,420 He was a businessman and had his own plane. 343 00:22:05,420 --> 00:22:08,020 He was over the Grand Teton Mountains. 344 00:22:08,020 --> 00:22:14,620 We saw up ahead of him, quite a distance ahead, nine silver objects. 345 00:22:14,620 --> 00:22:21,420 He referred to them as though they were saucers skipping along or a stone skipping over the 346 00:22:21,420 --> 00:22:22,420 water. 347 00:22:22,420 --> 00:22:25,680 He didn't actually refer to them as saucer in shape. 348 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:32,780 But back in the 1800s, a farmer did refer to something he had seen as saucer in shape. 349 00:22:32,780 --> 00:22:40,260 And I'm not going to mention these necessarily in any particular order, but Thomas Mantell, 350 00:22:40,260 --> 00:22:48,740 Captain Thomas Mantell, to be exact, on January the 7th in 1948 was down near the Fort Knox 351 00:22:48,740 --> 00:22:49,740 spot. 352 00:22:49,740 --> 00:22:56,900 It was a government air force based, to be exact, when he was notified and his wingmen 353 00:22:56,900 --> 00:22:59,940 were notified that there was something up there in the air and they should go up and 354 00:22:59,940 --> 00:23:01,900 see what it was. 355 00:23:01,900 --> 00:23:06,300 This was the unfortunate incident when the captain lost his life. 356 00:23:06,300 --> 00:23:11,820 There was disintegration of the plane and the air force later made a very ridiculous 357 00:23:11,820 --> 00:23:19,260 claim again as they have many times since that he was chasing a planet. 358 00:23:19,260 --> 00:23:24,220 Well Thomas Mantell, as I think I mentioned once before on this program, was a friend 359 00:23:24,220 --> 00:23:27,980 of a friend of mine who was in Air Force Intelligence at the time. 360 00:23:27,980 --> 00:23:34,740 And Mantell was a very fine flyer and he didn't have an hallucination, nor did his wingmen. 361 00:23:34,740 --> 00:23:40,140 And then there's the case of the Lubbock lights, 18 lights that were seen by not only Carl 362 00:23:40,140 --> 00:23:44,220 Hart Jr., who was fortunate enough to have a camera with him and shoot the pictures, 363 00:23:44,220 --> 00:23:48,420 a couple of them, but four scientists from Texas also were there. 364 00:23:48,420 --> 00:23:51,620 And that was in the summer of 1951. 365 00:23:51,620 --> 00:23:53,900 And then there was the Captain Killian case. 366 00:23:53,900 --> 00:23:59,060 And I feel very interested in this particular case because I myself was fortunate enough 367 00:23:59,060 --> 00:24:01,660 to play a small part in it. 368 00:24:01,660 --> 00:24:09,420 Captain Killian and five other pilots in 1959 were flying their particular courses and Killian 369 00:24:09,420 --> 00:24:13,340 as a route brought him to Detroit. 370 00:24:13,340 --> 00:24:17,820 The man I interviewed in the middle of the night called out of bed and went over to the 371 00:24:17,820 --> 00:24:22,980 airport to interview him was Captain A.D. Yates. 372 00:24:22,980 --> 00:24:26,460 He had come here from Newark, New Jersey to Cleveland. 373 00:24:26,460 --> 00:24:30,820 And he was very reluctant to mention anything to me at first. 374 00:24:30,820 --> 00:24:35,580 In fact, I was very highly screened by some individuals in the room there. 375 00:24:35,580 --> 00:24:40,860 And later I asked why I wasn't being given the opportunity to interview him. 376 00:24:40,860 --> 00:24:42,900 And they said, well, you haven't enough credentials. 377 00:24:42,900 --> 00:24:46,780 Well, up until then, no one had asked me for any credentials. 378 00:24:46,780 --> 00:24:52,300 So I said, well, if he's the man I think he is, I'll show you just one bit of information 379 00:24:52,300 --> 00:24:54,220 that I think will bring him forth. 380 00:24:54,220 --> 00:24:55,900 This was the NICAP card. 381 00:24:55,900 --> 00:25:02,260 I had many cards with me that I could have shown, but I felt this was adequate. 382 00:25:02,260 --> 00:25:06,540 And then he came out after he had, first of all, asked if I would be willing to answer 383 00:25:06,540 --> 00:25:07,860 three more questions. 384 00:25:07,860 --> 00:25:11,820 Apparently, I answered them to his satisfaction. 385 00:25:11,820 --> 00:25:19,260 And I later learned that this gentleman with 41 other men and women, Air Force people, 386 00:25:19,300 --> 00:25:26,820 I mean pilots and stewardesses, I should say, for commercial lines, were members of a group 387 00:25:26,820 --> 00:25:29,460 down in Newark, New Jersey, something like NICAP. 388 00:25:29,460 --> 00:25:34,660 They were very eager to get this information across to the others in the group, but didn't 389 00:25:34,660 --> 00:25:37,300 want any publicity through the papers. 390 00:25:37,300 --> 00:25:40,060 And he was so afraid that I might be a newspaper reporter. 391 00:25:40,060 --> 00:25:45,500 Well, this was the case where the six pilots flying their different courses had for 45 392 00:25:45,580 --> 00:25:50,460 minutes all seen three objects in the sky. 393 00:25:50,460 --> 00:25:56,700 Later, when Killian came to Detroit, he was videotaped by Frank Edwards, who was with 394 00:25:56,700 --> 00:26:01,540 us here, you remember, a year or two ago, and an NICAP board member. 395 00:26:01,540 --> 00:26:07,220 And this was very interesting because now we have this in-picture form still in his 396 00:26:07,220 --> 00:26:08,860 record of what he stated. 397 00:26:08,860 --> 00:26:14,500 However, he was silenced following that experience by his own plane company because they told 398 00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:18,260 him, if you ever mentioned this again publicly, they would fire him. 399 00:26:18,260 --> 00:26:24,100 Now, when the Air Force stated that this was the Belt of Orion, this was a great insult 400 00:26:24,100 --> 00:26:29,140 to these men because after all, flyers certainly know the Belt of Orion. 401 00:26:29,140 --> 00:26:33,900 And then when that didn't gel, they had other explanations. 402 00:26:33,900 --> 00:26:34,900 And so it went. 403 00:26:34,900 --> 00:26:42,980 Now, in February of the 21st, 1958, in Trindade Island down in South America, was a very interesting 404 00:26:42,980 --> 00:26:47,660 case that would take a long time to tell, but photographs were taken. 405 00:26:47,660 --> 00:26:53,020 And Kenneth Hoffman in the local scene we have gone into on occasion, and of course, 406 00:26:53,020 --> 00:26:54,020 I wouldn't want to miss... 407 00:26:54,020 --> 00:26:55,020 This was the minister. 408 00:26:55,020 --> 00:26:58,420 The minister, yes, from the Grace Lutheran Church. 409 00:26:58,420 --> 00:27:03,820 And of course, I wouldn't want to just want to quickly say that in Washington, 1952, was 410 00:27:03,820 --> 00:27:09,060 a great sighting over our nation's capital, and White House, and the Sun Times of Chicago 411 00:27:09,060 --> 00:27:14,340 Daily, had the big screaming headlines, Saucer Fleet on U.S. radar. 412 00:27:14,340 --> 00:27:18,660 Well, we'll get to your questions for my guest both in the studio and on the line coming 413 00:27:18,660 --> 00:27:22,780 up in just a moment on sightings of unidentified flying objects. 414 00:27:22,780 --> 00:27:23,780 Hi. 415 00:27:23,780 --> 00:27:24,780 Hi. 416 00:27:24,780 --> 00:27:25,780 Don't you ever smile?

424 00:27:50,380 --> 00:27:51,380 Right. 425 00:27:51,380 --> 00:27:53,380 A really indignant complaint can be sheer poetry. 426 00:27:53,380 --> 00:27:56,780 Well, how are the complaints going for you at Revco? 427 00:27:56,780 --> 00:27:59,020 No, I'm a little disappointed. 428 00:27:59,020 --> 00:28:03,260 I figured with that great written money back guarantee I'd really get a workout. 429 00:28:03,260 --> 00:28:08,300 But you know, Revco products are manufactured under rigid controls for highest quality and 430 00:28:08,300 --> 00:28:10,900 prices are 30 to 50 percent lower. 431 00:28:10,900 --> 00:28:16,100 Revco goes so far out of its way to satisfy people, they're just earning up dissatisfied 432 00:28:16,100 --> 00:28:17,980 customers at Revco. 433 00:28:17,980 --> 00:28:20,140 I don't get a chance to fulfill myself. 434 00:28:20,140 --> 00:28:22,140 Oh, it must be very frustrating. 435 00:28:22,140 --> 00:28:27,860 23 minutes now before 11 o'clock, I have a number of questions I'd like to get into 436 00:28:27,860 --> 00:28:31,380 with my guests based on what they've said already, but let me defer to you and take 437 00:28:31,380 --> 00:28:32,380 some of your calls first. 438 00:28:32,380 --> 00:28:33,380 It's 7814515. 439 00:28:33,380 --> 00:28:34,380 There you go. 440 00:28:34,380 --> 00:28:35,380 216, you are in contact. 441 00:28:35,380 --> 00:28:36,380 Go ahead, please. 442 00:28:36,380 --> 00:28:37,380 Yes, I have a question and a statement that I'd like to make. 443 00:28:37,380 --> 00:28:38,380 All right. 444 00:28:38,380 --> 00:28:39,380 And my question is that in one of the November issues of the Time Magazine, it was concerning 445 00:28:39,380 --> 00:28:40,380 with the New York Power Blackout. 446 00:28:40,380 --> 00:28:41,380 Yeah. 447 00:28:41,380 --> 00:28:42,380 In one of the pictures up in the right hand corner, I think it's a little bit of a bit 448 00:28:42,380 --> 00:28:43,380 of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of 449 00:28:43,380 --> 00:28:44,380 bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit 450 00:28:44,380 --> 00:28:45,380 of a bgm. 451 00:28:45,380 --> 00:28:46,380 Let me just interrupt a second. 452 00:28:46,380 --> 00:28:50,960 If anybody at home listening has a copy, this is November 19th issue of 1965, the gentleman's 453 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,900 referring to and it's about page 37. 454 00:28:53,900 --> 00:28:55,120 Go ahead, sir. 455 00:28:55,120 --> 00:29:08,360 Yes, in one of the pictures, I noticed up in the upper left corner, there's an 11. 456 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,360 Go ahead sir. 457 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:19,360 Yes, in one of the pictures, I noticed up in the upper right-hand corner, I think it is, there's an elliptical shaped object. 458 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:25,360 If you have the issue there, it's quite distinguishable from any of the stars. 459 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,360 Yeah, I have it right here in front of me. 460 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:31,360 Yes, I was wondering if any of your guests were familiar with this. 461 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,360 I know Earl has seen this, I guess, Alan. You and Rick have also seen this. 462 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,360 Yes, we have. 463 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:41,360 George, are you familiar with the picture the gentleman was talking about? 464 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:51,360 Yes, I'm particularly interested in this viewpoint because of the blackout connection that I have been one of the first groups, I guess, to mention the possible connection and the more probable connection. 465 00:29:51,360 --> 00:30:00,360 Because the number of sites that occurred over New York and Canada, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, which are still coming into my house right here in eastern Pennsylvania, 466 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:10,360 related to the blackout, where not only was this object photographed in Provision Time magazine, but Jet Plains was sent over Manhattan to chase the object. 467 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:18,360 Oh, well this aspect of it, I want to hear from you in just a minute or so. Let me just say, and then hear from my guests what they have to say, that I noticed this two weeks ago, 468 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:28,360 when we did the program of Lawman and Flying Saucers, and I was turning the page and I see this thing which obviously looks like something of a flying saucer nature up there. 469 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:36,360 I've read the caption down below, and there's no mention of it, whatever in the caption, it just says, a view southwest from the Time Life Building, 20 minutes after the blackout, so forth. 470 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:45,360 No mention of this object that jumps off of the page into the middle of your eyeball and you cannot miss it, and yet there's no explanation whatsoever. 471 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:51,360 So I call time in New York City to find out, and I talk to a picture editor up there and I said, well what's the story? 472 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:59,360 Here this picture is and there's obviously something that could be misconstrued perhaps as a flying saucer, no mention of it. 473 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:07,360 He said, well we don't know, you have to ask the photographer. So I tried to get a hold of the photographer, author, Rickerby, and the body did get his number, but I hasten to say, I forgot about it. 474 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:14,360 I meant to call him before the broadcast tonight and did not love to get the story. Now that's my own experience with it, which is nothing. Any of you, Earl? 475 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,360 I can tell you quite a little about it if you let me harm. 476 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,360 I'll let you. 477 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,360 Right. 478 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:29,360 Arthur Rickerby of Life Magazine made this photograph and it was reproduced as we say in time. 479 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:46,360 I guess I was one of the first perhaps to write to him, and I was very pleased to receive from Amy Mushher writing for the editors a very nice three stanza poem, which was not done in duplicate. 480 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:57,360 This was a genuine typewritten little poem and I wish I had brought it with me. It's cute as a dickens, but at the last, the last line says, no, it's not Mars, but Venus. 481 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:15,360 Now, my friend of mine, Mrs. Dean Deal from Lime, Ohio on the November the 14th, mailed me a letter, airmail, and in this on the second paragraph, it says, a pilot, Weldon Ross of Syracuse, New York reported to the Syracuse newspaper, 482 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:29,360 Evening Standard, that on the night of the Northeast blackout at the time the blackout started, he saw, and this is in quotes, a huge fireball over the main clay Niagara power line near clay, New York. 483 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:44,360 He saw flashes of fire. Item continued that clay had earlier been pinpointed as the possible center and source of the electrical failure, but officials had checked it immediately and found no evidence before a pilot made this report. 484 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:57,360 Now, another friend of mine, Mr. Larry Moyers of Akron from the Flying Saucer Investigations Committee there called Mr. Arthur Riccobay and spoke to him on the phone. 485 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:07,360 And Riccobay said, well, it's possible, this is the photographer, he said it's possible it could be a lens refraction, but it wasn't. 486 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,360 Had he noticed it in his negative? 487 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:18,360 No, well, yes, he had noticed in the negative, but he said in answer to a number of questions, it could be this, it could be that, but each time he'd say, but it wasn't. 488 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:32,360 So then Mr. Moyers said, could it have been a UFO? He said, possibly. And then Mr. Moyers said, did you notice this object in the sky when you took this very beautiful shot of the blackout of New York? 489 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:43,360 He said, no, I did not. Then I wrote a letter to Mr. Roger Pangeaquet of Geneva, Switzerland. He was very concerned about this. 490 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:55,360 And later in the evening when we go into this detector, this is the one that he invented, UFO detector, he wrote to me, can you possibly furnish me a copy of this immediately? 491 00:33:55,360 --> 00:34:04,360 So I did, I sent him an entire magazine and he's even photographed it and here's one of the slides he's returned to me and thanking me for it. 492 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:15,360 But he says it's one of the very fine UFOs and is similar to the one he has sent me from both Australia and from Spain. They look identical. 493 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:28,360 How can he, without reservation, say this is one of the finest UFOs? That's a firm, affirmative answer. Now this is a picture and it's easy to say it could be a UFO, but can he say it is? 494 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:41,360 Well, he went into great detail telling that the UFO was an elliptical object and that the force fields coming from it formed the two cones, the one above and the one below. 495 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:48,360 In other words, here's... That's purely supposition though. He doesn't know that. He's saying it could be. It could be force fields. They could be force fields, yes. 496 00:34:48,360 --> 00:35:03,360 But what he is saying is that on numerous occasions UFOs have been spotted, have been photographed and when they were, this particular effect was given like in the one down in Beaver Falls that the eye does not see. 497 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:17,360 Now these force fields apparently are not visible to our human eyes. But it was interesting to me that he said he had picked up four of the magazines in Europe and took them home and he said, I was deceived. 498 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:26,360 They were all black and whites. In other words, this is the Atlantic issue that they get over there and where we have beautiful color in ours, they get them purely in black and white. The copies are the same, however. 499 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:48,360 But I thought it was interesting that this should happen to have aroused his interest. Here's a man who belongs to seven organizations. He writes for the British Flying Saucer Review. He is an engineer. He is the president of the big Panjake company over there in Switzerland and not just a casual observer. 500 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:52,360 All right, Adlin, you don't think about this same picture? 501 00:35:52,360 --> 00:36:03,360 Well, yes, I'm not going to make any claims for it. Is there isn't. But there's one thing that there is a good claim that there isn't a flying saucer and that is an entangulation and with maps and this is done with coordinate systems. 502 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:08,360 This object indefinitely in all appearances is in the same exact place as the planet Venus. 503 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:09,360 It is? 504 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:10,360 Yes, it is. 505 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,360 The same exact place that Venus was at that night at that time? 506 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:25,360 Yes, but there's one thing. If you look at the lights on the street there, they are blur. And so is the planet Venus. But this looks like, and it all probably is a light refraction of either a light in the street or the planet Venus. 507 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,360 I will not make a claim for it of being a flying saucer. 508 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,360 George Saucer or Rick? 509 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:42,360 I'd like to just say that we had reports here over East and Pennsylvania of objects moving towards New Jersey. Then they flew into New Jersey News that night, had reports of objects moving from there towards New York. 510 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:50,360 Then the sightings by the pilot over at Syracuse, New York and near the power lines where the object was also located by some of the other people on the ground. 511 00:36:50,360 --> 00:37:01,360 And then since that time, sightings have cropped up all up and down the east coast that particular night. And some of these objects not only in the air but very close to the ground, tree top level. 512 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:19,360 And going back into history of blackouts, one occurred back in August 17, 1959 down in Brazil where an engineer radioed in, phoned in to the chief headquarters of the power plant that his sub-station had been put out of action by an unidentified flying object flying over the ground. 513 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:25,360 And in the meantime, he told them that it was headed towards the main plant, the power plant. 514 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:31,360 And the chief engineer went outside and saw it come over and when it came over the power plant, the power was off there for several hours. 515 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:52,360 That was in 1959. Then in 1962, the Air Force submitted their radar and had tracked an object moving from New York all the way out to Utah where it landed outside a power station at Eureka, Utah, and sorted out the power station for at least an hour before they restored power there. 516 00:37:52,360 --> 00:38:03,360 And this was when the object landed nearby and then the object took off and was chased by jet planes out towards California and exploded somewhere above California according to the newspaper reports. 517 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:21,360 George, I'm going to ask you on this. On this specific picture though, in Time Magazine, page 37, November 19, let me just ask you and Rick also, your opinion, based on what you know, based on what you've seen, what information you have, do you think it is an unidentified flying object or a flying saucer? 518 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:25,360 I have not seen the photograph, my sir, so that lets me up. 519 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:36,360 I myself have not formed any opinion. I have the knowledge that there is sometimes a lens refraction which creates images of this kind. 520 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:50,360 The part that rather confuses me just now is what Alan just mentioned a few moments ago about Venus because I recall earlier, Al, that you had checked the New York skyline, the buildings, etc. 521 00:38:50,360 --> 00:39:01,360 And against the position north, south, east, and so forth. And at that time you had mentioned to me that Venus was close but not there. Have you recently rechecked? 522 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:08,360 No. It was in that vicinity, or the elevation of this picture being taken has to be taken in effect. It could all probably have been this. 523 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,360 I was just wondering what your change of... 524 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:14,360 And you know, many pictures, we've got many pictures on our files that show light refractions, claiming it's UFO. 525 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:15,360 That look like this. 526 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:19,360 Right, but then again, some that you do photograph that do look like this picture. 527 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:26,360 Exactly. I don't know for a while myself if it is a genuine UFO or not. I was merely reporting what I had learned from Switzerland. 528 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:27,360 Rick, what do you think? 529 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:32,360 Well, I tell you, along with the Elm Annik, I believe that it is a planet Venus. I'd also like to ask... 530 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:33,360 That large? 531 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:40,360 Well, since it was a time exposure, Earl, now you have to take that into consideration now. If you'll notice the window lights were blurred. 532 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:45,360 And some of the auto headlights were blurred. And also the object could have been blurred. 533 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:51,360 And since it is quite a bright light source, it's possible that it could appear to be a UFO. 534 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,360 I tend to agree with Al that it is Venus. 535 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:57,360 Do you agree, though, that it's a jet plane on the next page? 536 00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:01,360 Definitely. It's either a helicopter, a jet plane, I'm not sure. 537 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,360 Did you see that, Earl? 538 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:04,360 Now, sit up closer. Go ahead, Rick. 539 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,360 Yeah, I'd like to ask George for a set of questions. George? 540 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:07,360 Yes. 541 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:13,360 Now, you mentioned that on the night of the Blackout, you had received reports from New Jersey and Pennsylvania. 542 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:17,360 Now, what sources do these come from, from people calling in your group or what? 543 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:27,360 Some of these sources were the first one, the original one, was of two young boys who reported a large, round, reddish-orange object to the voice of the people. 544 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:31,360 WST radio here in eastern Pennsylvania. 545 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:36,360 And they said it was moving towards the east and towards the New Jersey, towards Filmsburg, New Jersey. 546 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:45,360 Then, from the newspaper account that appeared in the Flimington, New Jersey newspaper, a couple of days later, a couple reported that they had watched an object that night, 547 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:49,360 just proud to, and doing the Blackout, moving towards New York. 548 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,360 And this was headed towards New York in a more or less direct, straight line. 549 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:59,360 Now, it seemed to have been directed also towards Syracuse in that direction near the... 550 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:03,360 I can't think right now the name of the airport there, but I know that there are power lines. 551 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:10,360 In fact, the pilot himself reported that he saw the object, and he was sure the object was very near the power lines running into New York. 552 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:14,360 All right, we're going to move along. Take that next call at 7814515. 553 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:19,360 If you're calling long distance, the area code 216, sightings of unidentified flying objects. 554 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:23,360 This is Harold Morgan. You're in contact. Go ahead, please. 555 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,360 May we have your question, please? 556 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:32,360 Yes, sir. I have a question on this object that I have spotted on several occasions. 557 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:36,360 And I was wondering if possibly one of the gentlemen there in the studio could help me out. 558 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:41,360 Yes, sir. I'll take that call. What did the object look like, and when did you first see it? 559 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:46,360 Well, actually, I've seen it over a long period of months since last summer. 560 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,360 What did it appear like, sir? 561 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:52,360 Well, to the naked eye, it just looks like a giant bright star. 562 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:54,360 Where do you see it? 563 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:58,360 Actually, it's in the northeast part of the sky. 564 00:41:58,360 --> 00:41:59,360 And where do you live? 565 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:07,360 I live on the west side, and upon looking at it with the naked eye, it looks like a real bright star. 566 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:18,360 But I have observed it with powerful binoculars and a telescope, and under observation in this manner, it has a red light, 567 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:26,360 and it flashes. And then, on other times when I have observed this object, it is just a constant red light. 568 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:30,360 And you say this is in the northeast, you see this object? 569 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:31,360 Right, in the northeast. 570 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,360 It's just a stationary object? 571 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:35,360 Yes. 572 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:36,360 And you've viewed it too? 573 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:43,360 This is the thing that is very puzzling to me. It remains stationary, so it couldn't be a plane or a weather satellite or anything else. 574 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,360 What time of the night do you see this object, sir? 575 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:51,360 Well, I've observed it many different times. I've seen this not one time, I've seen it numerous times. 576 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:58,360 Now, my next door neighbor is a member of many UFO organizations. He's an active member. 577 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:01,360 Well, what is the elevation of the object? Can you give that? 578 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:03,360 Well, see, that's hard to say really. 579 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,360 Well, see, there isn't quite no... 580 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:06,360 It's a hundred feet, though. 581 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:10,360 For me, it would be hard to judge, but it would be several hundred feet. 582 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:12,360 Do you mean any given night? You can go out there and there it is? 583 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:17,360 No, not any given night, but I have seen it on different nights and at different times of the night. 584 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:23,360 Well, sir, when you see it the next time, you call 234-0861 and we'll try to get a triangulation on the object. 585 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:29,360 And right now, I can see that there's nothing there. There's no star. That's that bright in that northeastern sky right now. 586 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:34,360 If it was overhead, I would call it the planet Jupiter, but even a star's move, you know, fifteen degrees an hour. 587 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,360 What does your next door neighbor say about it? 588 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:37,360 Has you seen it? 589 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:38,360 Pardon me? 590 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:39,360 Has you seen it? 591 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:45,360 Yes, many times I've seen it and I went to the door and got him outside with me and he is the one that has the telescope. 592 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,360 And you see it through the telescope? 593 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:54,360 Yes, we have observed it and because it is so luminous, so bright, you can't determine any definite shape to it. 594 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:55,360 I see, all right. 595 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,360 And he has taken this information to meetings with him and... 596 00:43:58,360 --> 00:43:59,360 Which meetings? 597 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,360 Well, he's a member of APRO and... 598 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,360 Yes, we have meetings locally here once a month. 599 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:11,360 Every third Saturday at the Congress savings bank building in Plama. 600 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:13,360 Well, I don't believe it has been with a national... 601 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:14,360 Well, this is... 602 00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:18,360 ...the northern hemisphere. This has been a local club of which there are probably twenty or thirty members. 603 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:25,360 All right, so I'd like to have you call 234-0861. The next time you see this object and we'll put a triangulation on it. We also have telescopes. 604 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:26,360 I see. 605 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:34,360 All right, so thank you very much for calling. The number 7814515. We'll take that next call coming up on sightings of UFOs in just a moment. 606 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:43,360 Some guys have it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Some guys never will. 607 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:50,360 Some guys have it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

626 00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:34,360 Does the UFO try and shoot them down? 627 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:35,360 UFO. 628 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:40,360 Well you mean a UFO is an unidentified flying object you mean does it try to shoot each 629 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,360 other down or what are you talking about? 630 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:50,360 Well the people that the companies that are in charge of it to send up planes. 631 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,360 You mean as the US government ever tried to shoot them down? 632 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:54,360 Yeah. 633 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:59,360 I can answer that question the US government had a shoot down order in 1952 but as far as 634 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:01,360 we're concerned they never brought one down. 635 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:07,360 Many people we have many cases where the object itself is proving to be a metallic or a material 636 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:14,360 object was hit with bullets and also it debris that time but as far as they ever brought one 637 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:17,360 down we have no answer. 638 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:20,360 I was just going to say I was talking to the Air Force man just recently he's still in the 639 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:25,360 force and I naturally won't mention his name or where he lives but I happen to be in contact 640 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:30,360 with him and he said that the president is absolutely true that they are supposed to take 641 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:35,360 their planes and hover over them and do whatever they can to get one right down and examine 642 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:36,360 it of course. 643 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:38,360 This is a ridiculous thing to do. 644 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:43,360 By the way I might mention that speaking of these UFOs and their metallic substance and 645 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:47,360 so forth when Major Keel was here on the Mike Douglas show last year he made a statement 646 00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:53,360 and it was printed in the Cleveland plane dealer and I had forgotten this but Nicholas Nester 647 00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:58,360 sent me this proof and I just got it in time for tonight's show and on the plane dealer's 648 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:05,360 Monday August 10th 1964 page 18 he said this Keel was saying in his pursuit of UFO information 649 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:09,360 Keel said he found the object can fly about 9,000 miles an hour that they are made of a 650 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:15,360 strange metal capable of evaporating and that traces of radioactivity have been discovered 651 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:17,360 where the ships were said to have landed. 652 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:23,360 Now with all this in mind and the interest of the Air Force here is a statement credited 653 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:28,360 to the Air Force by a writer of the Associated Press and I have this before me this was last 654 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,360 April this thing came down. 655 00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:34,360 He said the conclusion of the Air Force is there is no evidence that there are alien 656 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:40,360 interplanetary space vehicles under some form of intelligent control landing in the USA. 657 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:46,360 Now as you know the Air Force conning us on this you mean the Air Force really believes 658 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:49,360 that there are no such things as flying saucers? 659 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:56,360 No they don't. There is Air Force regulation 200-2. There is Janet 146B which is the joint 660 00:48:56,360 --> 00:49:02,360 Army Navy Air Force publications and I personally know I was in the Air Force and I know personal 661 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:06,360 friends that are still in the Air Force and that we are high officers and there is definitely 662 00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:10,360 something there and they are definitely concerned about it and they are definitely gathering 663 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:15,360 material which is called Project Blue Book on the Wright-Patterson field right today. 664 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:20,360 As a matter of fact in this respect let me mention that earlier as I mentioned that McKinley 665 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:23,360 Cantor the author of Andersonville will be on the program during the course of the last 666 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:29,360 hour I talked to him earlier in the day reporting that he has seen a flying saucer. He also passes 667 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:33,360 along some quite interesting information about the just recently retired Air Force General 668 00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:40,360 Curtis LeMay and the statements that General LeMay had made sort of off the record to McKinley 669 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:45,360 Cantor and I think that will surprise you. It certainly surprised me, a retired Air Force 670 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:49,360 General making some of the statements he did concerning flying saucers. Our time is just 671 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:53,360 about up for right now. We will have time to take more calls. We will take more calls than ever 672 00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:57,360 during the course of the next hour here on Contact. If you would like to be reserving your place on the 673 00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:05,360 line the number is 7814515. The area code for those of you calling long distance is 216. 674 00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,360 We are trying something different tomorrow night. Let me just take a moment that I have here to 675 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:14,360 remind you about it. Of course frequently on Friday nights we have a sound off contact. When you 676 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:19,360 get a chance to call in and sound off on well virtually anything you'd like to talk about. I won't argue 677 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:23,360 with you all the time. Sometimes we'll get into a devil's advocate position on just to be ornery 678 00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:27,360 taking the outside of something that you'd like to talk about. But tomorrow night we'll try something 679 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:33,360 a little bit different. Contact, contacts you portion. Oh yes we'll be taking some of your calls 680 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:37,360 as usual. You can call in tomorrow night but we'll also be making some calls to those of you who 681 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:42,360 over the course of the past years have been dropping us some mail and maybe voicing some strong 682 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:47,360 opinions. We'll be calling some of you who have been writing in tomorrow night. Sort of a reverse 683 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:52,360 contact. Sounding you out on what you had to write about. That's tomorrow night here on Contact. 684 00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:57,360 We'll get back together with Rick Hilberg, George Fossette and Alan Manick and Earl Naff and being 685 00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:04,360 joined very shortly by WKYC weatherman Ken Goodman. Back together following the news at 7814515 686 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:09,360 on WKYC Cleveland, Ohio NBC in Cleveland. It's 11 o'clock. 687 00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:18,360 WKYC in Cleveland, Cleveland, Cleveland, Cleveland. 688 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:38,360 The number is 7814515. Ufology 1966.

And we'll have another Ken join us very soon on the UFO program here tonight. 690 00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:50,360 Ken Goodman WKYC weatherman will be dropping in with an experience that happened to him a number of years ago 691 00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:56,360 and I found it quite amazing, quite moving. We'll also be listening to Mr. McKinley Cantor, the author of 692 00:51:56,360 --> 00:52:03,360 Andersonville and the author of the Newer book that came out a few months ago, the story of General Curtis LeMay. 693 00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:09,360 Right now let's take some calls for my guests, Earl Naff, Alan Manick, Rick Hilberg and on the contact line to 694 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:16,360 Pennsylvania, Mr. George Fossett. Let's have that next caller. 7814515 puts you in contact. 695 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:17,360 Hello? Yes. 696 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:22,360 First of all I'd like to say that this question was directed to any member of the panel tonight. 697 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:23,360 Okay. 698 00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:31,360 Well on your previous contact shows on UFO, the description has been, most many of them have had the description of a 699 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:38,360 force field, whether it be magnetic or ionized or something like that. And when people see these, I'd like to know 700 00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,360 what does a force field look like? 701 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:44,360 What does a force field look like? Well can you see it, isn't it? 702 00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:46,360 No, no, no. 703 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:54,360 Well on your, one of your previous shows you had a woman think it's from North Carolina somewhere, said she saw an ionized force field. 704 00:52:54,360 --> 00:53:04,360 This was, this was a Madeleine road of her from Silver Spring, Maryland and she was seeing quite a number of things that night I think. 705 00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:05,360 Yes. 706 00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:11,360 In fact I've never seen some of the things that I asked to see that night as I recall. We asked her to send us some information, some pictures and all like this and she 707 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:13,360 you know, because she wouldn't, she never had it. 708 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:21,360 I've written her several letters with enclosed stamped address, don lopes and all, but have never received anything and frankly I don't know when a person is 709 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:26,360 telling something like she was telling last night why she wouldn't support it with positive evidence. 710 00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:27,360 Rick? 711 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:44,360 Well this is Rodefer, express the opinion that UFOs come from underground caves and the man who started this all, his name is Richard Shaver and he started it in one of the science fiction magazines in the 40s and curiously enough this man was in a mental institution. 712 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:47,360 So I wouldn't put too much stock into that story. 713 00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:57,360 I heard this from other sources though that there are some people who yes indeed believe that they've only come from under the earth but there's one theory isn't it, that they come, there was a whole civilization under the north pole. 714 00:53:57,360 --> 00:54:00,360 That's the doctor Bernard. 715 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:01,360 Bernard yes. 716 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:07,360 It's the same thing as Shaver, Deros and Demos and whatever. 717 00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:08,360 Who does that know either? 718 00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,360 All right so does that answer your question? 719 00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:11,360 Yes sir, thanks very much. 720 00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:12,360 Yes George? 721 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:14,360 Let me interrupt just one second. 722 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:34,360 I think it's not so important sometimes what people see is what happens when the objects are around related to force fields where people report as I've mentioned earlier programs heat burns, electric shock, temporary paralysis, dam and evasion, the loss of the ability to swallow properly, complete blackouts at times. 723 00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:41,360 Because of being too near these objects, even above the automobiles and the sky overhead, are you on the ground? 724 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:56,360 As far as the blackouts of the lights and the dimouts of the radios, we've heard a great deal about this but are you satisfied as youthful investigators that these things actually happen Alan? 725 00:54:56,360 --> 00:55:03,360 Yes it has definitely proved that it has happened when UFO activity was in the area especially low UFOs. 726 00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:10,360 In one case they broke the headlines in the Cleveland papers here and very large headlines in the Hallman Air Base in 1957. 727 00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:14,360 This was heard around the country and in fact around the world where it stopped many automobiles. 728 00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:15,360 Is that right? 729 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:19,360 Yes sir, at least there were 40 of them I guess and people were standing out there watching. 730 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:34,360 I think that if I recall correctly the newscaster here was telling me just recently when he came in near the studio before we were on the air that what his name was down at 11 o'clock at night on television. 731 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:35,360 Oh, on our station? 732 00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:36,360 Virgil Downey. 733 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:48,360 Yes, Virgil was telling me that when he was in the service he saw a man who had, his car had stalled and several cars ahead of this gentleman had stalled as well. 734 00:55:48,360 --> 00:56:02,360 And this man was interrogated at great length and by the time the day was over he was then hospitalized and he said if he'd ever see one of these or had his auto affected by one of these again he'd never report it. 735 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:08,360 Sure, let's do a front-end as many calls as possible in the next few minutes so we can play that interview that I had earlier today with Mr. McKinnon to Catterl. 736 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:11,360 Mrs. Harold Morgan, you're in contact.

00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:32,440 that maybe 775 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:35,160 sometimes they have for a great fleet of thoughts of the moon 776 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:36,040 and um... 777 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:37,160 that the moon 778 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,440 to the news of the base by other 779 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:41,740 things might have been before we ever 780 00:58:41,740 --> 00:58:45,600 had the intention of photographing the moon or studying about it too 781 00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:49,400 there was never actually any saucers seen on the moon uh... some there were 782 00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:51,680 claims of some from amateur 783 00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:55,440 uh... strong as but the actual strong or ht wilkins of england 784 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:59,280 uh... his job was nothing more than the moon and he has made uh... very many 785 00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:00,480 calculations 786 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:03,160 uh... professor and jesset past professor 787 00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:07,040 uh... made a lot of us are studies on the moon and there is to be activity but 788 00:59:07,040 --> 00:59:07,940 uh... it is 789 00:59:07,940 --> 00:59:09,840 unconfirmed yet as to what it is 790 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:11,880 provably activity yes 791 00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:15,840 proved to be activity well activity as far as light sources are different ways 792 00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:19,800 are creators being either produced or shattered or something taking place on 793 00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:21,600 the moon yet which could be natural 794 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:25,040 not right rather than than uh... manner creature made for now right 795 00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:26,760 right absolutely 796 00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:29,040 are you pretty well collected all four of you 797 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:34,360 semi-satisfied that no there's no life on the moon no you're not satisfied 798 00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:35,320 no 799 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:39,160 that's right now i don't believe that any life is we know it and by the way this 800 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:41,920 is what the news media covers all the time you'll let me say 801 00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:45,160 life as we know it well we don't know about life as we don't know it but this is 802 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:46,560 only supposition 803 00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:49,520 but uh... as far as uh... life as we know it 804 00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:52,480 well we're gonna be on the moon someday and as we know it from some other world 805 00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:53,360 could be there now 806 00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:57,600 but with all of the the photographic evidence we've had from 807 00:59:57,600 --> 00:59:58,480 the moon 808 00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:02,380 that shows no sign of life as we do or don't know it 809 01:00:02,380 --> 01:00:05,920 or no conditions where life could prevail as we do or don't know it 810 01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:07,040 well we're still not satisfied 811 01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:11,160 no we're not because there's just too much and also that back part of the moon 812 01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:13,560 with the two-thirds that we do not see 813 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:17,900 uh... and now with the bridge uh... and the bridge uh... well there's 814 01:00:17,900 --> 01:00:20,860 a lot of controversy on that bridge it could be either a natural phenomena or 815 01:00:20,860 --> 01:00:22,660 somebody that was formed there because 816 01:00:22,660 --> 01:00:26,060 i guess uh... during the studies of this uh... moon and they've been studying it 817 01:00:26,060 --> 01:00:29,140 for two or three hundred years now two two hundred fifty years 818 01:00:29,140 --> 01:00:30,220 and uh... 819 01:00:30,220 --> 01:00:34,020 there's certain spots that are appearing on the moon which shouldn't be 820 01:00:34,020 --> 01:00:37,540 well i just like to mention that even the task well if that life which is uh... 821 01:00:37,540 --> 01:00:40,820 maybe up to three or four hundred uh... five hundred miles up 822 01:00:40,820 --> 01:00:43,660 according to several photographs that they have taken they've found no it's 823 01:00:43,660 --> 01:00:46,060 a life on the home plate yet and 824 01:00:46,060 --> 01:00:51,020 these moon quotes which has gone down to the south land is if you can believe everything the Russians say 825 01:00:51,020 --> 01:00:55,020 it's too early to say because remember they said the same thing about the matter of four 826 01:00:55,020 --> 01:00:56,980 first of no life no canals 827 01:00:56,980 --> 01:01:01,020 uh... it's just not the right place for life and yet just recently this has been 828 01:01:01,020 --> 01:01:05,100 reputed by many astronomers a particular colloquial convoin 829 01:01:05,100 --> 01:01:07,580 who says that uh... he has discovered 830 01:01:07,580 --> 01:01:11,780 uh... in the photographs the canals that were long years ago sketched by astronomers 831 01:01:11,780 --> 01:01:15,980 through their own personal observations because Ellen said there was much controversy about this 832 01:01:15,980 --> 01:01:17,740 well let's get to the next call 833 01:01:17,740 --> 01:01:21,060 7814515 puts you in contact 834 01:01:21,060 --> 01:01:22,180 go ahead please 835 01:01:22,180 --> 01:01:23,180 hello 836 01:01:23,180 --> 01:01:26,420 i would like to ask this 837 01:01:26,420 --> 01:01:31,380 since the Air Force hasn't made any statements concerning the presence of UFOs 838 01:01:31,380 --> 01:01:33,740 could it possibly be 839 01:01:33,740 --> 01:01:37,460 that these sightings are being conducted by our country 840 01:01:37,460 --> 01:01:40,900 and maybe for some reason the government isn't ready 841 01:01:40,900 --> 01:01:42,500 to be decent 842 01:01:42,500 --> 01:01:47,700 any information because it seems to me the Air Force must know or it doesn't know 843 01:01:47,700 --> 01:01:49,140 and if it doesn't know 844 01:01:49,140 --> 01:01:51,180 maybe it doesn't want to admit it 845 01:01:51,180 --> 01:01:58,420 well they've made statements as far as that goes the statement is that uh... to their knowledge there is no such thing as a flying saucer 846 01:01:58,420 --> 01:02:01,580 I mean this is a paraphrase but in essence that's what they mean 847 01:02:01,580 --> 01:02:03,180 but i know they have 848 01:02:03,180 --> 01:02:04,860 have said that 849 01:02:04,860 --> 01:02:06,220 and uh... 850 01:02:06,220 --> 01:02:10,060 I don't like fields where they have one of the big 851 01:02:10,060 --> 01:02:13,820 yes well we believe here at the Cleveland Uphology Project especially in 852 01:02:13,820 --> 01:02:18,820 uh... you can take a nightcap at American UFO committee and the rest of the major organizations of the country 853 01:02:18,820 --> 01:02:23,020 um... that we actually feel that there is enough information now 854 01:02:23,020 --> 01:02:24,020 to be said 855 01:02:24,020 --> 01:02:25,340 one way or the other 856 01:02:25,340 --> 01:02:28,580 that as far as they're admitting it they will not admit it openly 857 01:02:28,580 --> 01:02:29,620 but uh... 858 01:02:29,620 --> 01:02:34,060 I can't say secret either because there's too much documented evidence too many people we know 859 01:02:34,060 --> 01:02:35,900 too many things too many regulations 860 01:02:35,900 --> 01:02:41,020 the point is this the well and that they could could be these flying saucers be our own experiments 861 01:02:41,020 --> 01:02:41,900 no 862 01:02:41,900 --> 01:02:43,940 we shoot them down if they were 863 01:02:43,940 --> 01:02:45,740 have we shot them down that we know 864 01:02:45,740 --> 01:02:46,240 of 865 01:02:46,240 --> 01:02:52,040 i mean would we have a shoot down order to shoot them down if they were our own and if they're our own 866 01:02:52,040 --> 01:02:57,340 uh... we've only been off the ground some sixty years on the right brothers got us off the ground in planes 867 01:02:57,340 --> 01:03:00,720 and these have been seen for many many many years right 868 01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:04,180 I think we could be totally shoot them down if it wasn't i mean 869 01:03:04,180 --> 01:03:07,180 i mean we don't shoot our own people down 870 01:03:07,180 --> 01:03:09,060 who knows if any people in them 871 01:03:09,060 --> 01:03:15,100 well in this kind of government that we have it's hard enough to keep a secret as almost uh... any political party can tell you in a 872 01:03:15,100 --> 01:03:20,520 secret like this if it were being engaged in by our government is administration's change from 873 01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:24,660 republican to democrat and so forth and the reporters being as nosy as they are 874 01:03:24,660 --> 01:03:28,820 I have to say that purely a personal opinion that would be virtually impossible 875 01:03:28,820 --> 01:03:30,060 for this government 876 01:03:30,060 --> 01:03:31,660 to keep something under wraps 877 01:03:31,660 --> 01:03:34,380 uh... that long it was miracle enough that 878 01:03:34,380 --> 01:03:37,300 the Manhattan Project the uh... atomic bomb 879 01:03:37,300 --> 01:03:42,300 was kept a secret for the brief comparatively brief part of time that it was 880 01:03:42,300 --> 01:03:45,460 too many blabbermouths and too many political acts is to grind between the two parties 881 01:03:45,460 --> 01:03:51,180 well you know i i'm on the issue of things i'm not talking against them i'd like to let them see them because they really 882 01:03:51,180 --> 01:03:54,780 could scare the dickens out of me sometimes and 883 01:03:54,780 --> 01:03:55,580 uh... there is this 884 01:03:55,580 --> 01:04:00,020 I just went through my mind though could it be our own or security reasons or maybe 885 01:04:00,020 --> 01:04:02,380 I don't know that uh... 886 01:04:02,380 --> 01:04:04,900 they're not our own because they've been 887 01:04:04,900 --> 01:04:08,140 they've been watching these uh... these actual records go back and 888 01:04:08,140 --> 01:04:09,740 as far back as we can permit 889 01:04:09,740 --> 01:04:14,340 and the same kind the same type of sightings are explained the same way in the science and 890 01:04:14,340 --> 01:04:17,620 so-called top men of the world at that time 891 01:04:17,620 --> 01:04:21,260 all proved that these things don't exist yet this is before our country is even born 892 01:04:21,260 --> 01:04:23,540 well one time the air force uh... 893 01:04:23,540 --> 01:04:25,340 tried to claim that they uh... 894 01:04:25,340 --> 01:04:29,380 they had the UFOs they were government weapons this was about in nineteen fifty five 895 01:04:29,380 --> 01:04:31,700 i think it was in u.s. news and world report 896 01:04:31,700 --> 01:04:35,660 they broke a story saying that soon the air force will have flying saucers 897 01:04:35,660 --> 01:04:39,580 and the craft uh... depicted with the saucer shaped object with some sort of 898 01:04:39,580 --> 01:04:43,700 uh... louvers on it and it said it would fly at all kinds of speeds and altitudes 899 01:04:43,700 --> 01:04:47,540 and in about nineteen fifty nine when the thing was finally developed by the avro 900 01:04:47,540 --> 01:04:48,420 company 901 01:04:48,420 --> 01:04:52,100 and later by uh... believe any c a scientist only got about two feet off the 902 01:04:52,100 --> 01:04:54,620 ground to be able to get a few inches 903 01:04:54,620 --> 01:04:56,300 it could have got about the curve 904 01:04:56,300 --> 01:04:57,820 wheeler on the hanger every day 905 01:04:57,820 --> 01:04:58,820 it got off the ground 906 01:04:58,820 --> 01:05:02,900 what's the next call of the grant seven eight one four five one five that puts 907 01:05:02,900 --> 01:05:04,660 you in contact 908 01:05:04,660 --> 01:05:05,860 go ahead please 909 01:05:05,860 --> 01:05:09,380 you have in the studio a couple of gentlemen who are members of the 910 01:05:09,380 --> 01:05:11,100 cleveland u-project 911 01:05:11,100 --> 01:05:13,380 yes and i would like to know 912 01:05:13,380 --> 01:05:15,500 what they have done to help 913 01:05:15,500 --> 01:05:19,460 my cap on that campus beyond the organization of the thing to bring this 914 01:05:19,460 --> 01:05:23,700 before the public by holding open congressional hearings 915 01:05:23,700 --> 01:05:27,180 and uh... the organization trying to bring this before the public uh... 916 01:05:27,180 --> 01:05:29,620 aren't any of the other organizations uh... 917 01:05:29,620 --> 01:05:30,900 uh... advocating that 918 01:05:30,900 --> 01:05:34,780 and not that i know of 919 01:05:34,780 --> 01:05:37,540 i disagree with your point sir go ahead 920 01:05:37,540 --> 01:05:38,620 what's your point sir 921 01:05:38,620 --> 01:05:42,620 i would like to know what these days there is an article appearing in the saucer news 922 01:05:42,620 --> 01:05:45,100 from nineteen sixty six issue 923 01:05:45,100 --> 01:05:48,300 where one of the members alamemic 924 01:05:48,300 --> 01:05:51,020 is a uh... signatory of the article 925 01:05:51,020 --> 01:05:54,300 this is james mosley edition 926 01:05:54,300 --> 01:05:57,140 right now just for the benefit of our listeners who are not uh... flying 927 01:05:57,140 --> 01:06:00,660 saucer rights this is also uses what this is the official publication of the 928 01:06:00,660 --> 01:06:04,140 saucer and unexplained selects your events research society with the sounds 929 01:06:04,140 --> 01:06:06,500 impressive and i'm not going to think about the saucer news 930 01:06:06,500 --> 01:06:08,820 isn't that a private organization 931 01:06:08,820 --> 01:06:12,980 and this is a private publication by james mosley if i'm not mistaken in my 932 01:06:12,980 --> 01:06:16,580 ideas yes the correct me if i know the organization is a local new york group 933 01:06:16,580 --> 01:06:19,220 but the uh... publication is actually separate 934 01:06:19,220 --> 01:06:22,860 but if you read my name under their friend you've noticed the other the other 935 01:06:22,860 --> 01:06:26,300 names of the two and we're all banding together this is something new 936 01:06:26,300 --> 01:06:27,940 it took two years to form this 937 01:06:27,940 --> 01:06:30,780 no one's ever done this and we're trying to do it we're going to try to form this 938 01:06:30,780 --> 01:06:32,060 group together 939 01:06:32,060 --> 01:06:35,660 and we're publishing information this is the main purpose of it 940 01:06:35,660 --> 01:06:37,540 is giving this information to the public 941 01:06:37,540 --> 01:06:41,940 this is not answering my question my question is what have you as leader of 942 01:06:41,940 --> 01:06:46,300 the cleven your father's project done to help make up all we can do is forward 943 01:06:46,300 --> 01:06:49,060 the information across to make up and that's what we're doing 944 01:06:49,060 --> 01:06:53,580 what i have personally done through the many years as a member of my cap from 945 01:06:53,580 --> 01:06:55,380 its uh... inception 946 01:06:55,380 --> 01:07:00,020 is work very closely with major keyhole in fact major key was even turned 947 01:07:00,020 --> 01:07:04,060 lectures over to me when he couldn't keep them which is a great honors to me 948 01:07:04,060 --> 01:07:04,940 personally 949 01:07:04,940 --> 01:07:08,820 uh... seems to me that we must move along here on uh... in terms of time we have 950 01:07:08,820 --> 01:07:12,060 so much left that would like to broadcast here tonight one of the access to 951 01:07:12,060 --> 01:07:15,380 grind it seems to let's clear away some of the clouds and get down to what we're 952 01:07:15,380 --> 01:07:16,500 talking about 953 01:07:16,500 --> 01:07:19,180 one of the items in this uh... magazine 954 01:07:19,180 --> 01:07:20,460 suggests 955 01:07:20,460 --> 01:07:24,140 uh... if i read this correctly that the seven thousand five hundred dollars a 956 01:07:24,140 --> 01:07:29,420 year paid by nackab two major keyhole might better be spent elsewhere 957 01:07:29,420 --> 01:07:33,260 that uh... major keyhole perhaps is outlived is usefulness as far as nackab 958 01:07:33,260 --> 01:07:36,660 is concerned and let's take this money and give it to somebody else to uh... 959 01:07:36,660 --> 01:07:38,020 do a more active 960 01:07:38,020 --> 01:07:41,500 uh... job is this uh... proper representation of the essence of the 961 01:07:41,500 --> 01:07:42,380 suggestion 962 01:07:42,380 --> 01:07:47,380 uh... yes that's what i have in mind but my question is this 963 01:07:47,380 --> 01:07:51,100 uh... what have these members contributed financially to nackab now i am 964 01:07:51,100 --> 01:07:55,060 very well acquainted with nackab i know the job that nackab is trying to do i 965 01:07:55,060 --> 01:07:58,900 know the sacrifices of major keyhole that is made 966 01:07:58,900 --> 01:08:03,020 uh... to help this along and where would nackab be without major keyhole 967 01:08:03,020 --> 01:08:06,940 where would nackab be without the people 968 01:08:06,940 --> 01:08:10,460 uh... major keyhole has dedicated himself 969 01:08:10,460 --> 01:08:12,260 uh... for many many years 970 01:08:12,260 --> 01:08:15,740 i don't know that if you get seventy five cents a year or seven thousand five 971 01:08:15,740 --> 01:08:19,260 hundred and i'm not concerned he's done a tremendous job he used to be in five 972 01:08:19,260 --> 01:08:21,340 figures and he's taken an awful beating 973 01:08:21,340 --> 01:08:23,180 he's been to the youthful what 974 01:08:23,180 --> 01:08:25,140 billy mitchell was to the plane 975 01:08:25,140 --> 01:08:29,100 right i'm sorry we can't get more deeply into this uh... right 976 01:08:29,100 --> 01:08:32,900 let i guess among certain uh... people involved with flying saucer but we do 977 01:08:32,900 --> 01:08:36,420 have so very much to do yet tonight i'm very sorry so we must take the next 978 01:08:36,420 --> 01:08:38,300 call because we have two more things to more 979 01:08:38,300 --> 01:08:39,580 major items to bring you 980 01:08:39,580 --> 01:08:41,820 let's have a nice call this is our morning contact 981 01:08:41,820 -->

western half of the united states perhaps 984 01:08:52,140 --> 01:08:53,780 arizona or nevada 985 01:08:53,780 --> 01:08:58,620 where a flying saucer was reputed to a land landed and uh... 986 01:08:58,620 --> 01:09:02,980 this was covered up by the air force and the area was roped off 987 01:09:02,980 --> 01:09:04,260 uh... 988 01:09:04,260 --> 01:09:08,140 uh... i knew the reporter evidently uh... gave this story to major keyhole if 989 01:09:08,140 --> 01:09:09,300 i'm not mistaken 990 01:09:09,300 --> 01:09:14,100 and uh... he was able to bypass these roadblocks go over this hill and watch 991 01:09:14,100 --> 01:09:18,020 the uh... air force officials looking at this uh... saucer 992 01:09:18,020 --> 01:09:21,980 loading it into a van and perhaps taking it to a warehouse which is supposed to be 993 01:09:21,980 --> 01:09:24,020 near washington somewhere 994 01:09:24,020 --> 01:09:27,660 well sir i can clarify that that came out of a book called the uh... behind the

like to end the rest of my guess here 1009 01:10:07,300 --> 01:10:09,620 to hear a conversation that i had earlier 1010 01:10:09,620 --> 01:10:10,420 this evening 1011 01:10:10,420 --> 01:10:12,340 with mister mckinney catar 1012 01:10:12,340 --> 01:10:16,140 and mister uh... catar is the author of anderson bill the future prize winning 1013 01:10:16,140 --> 01:10:20,380 book a few years ago is also the author co-author with general christmas may 1014 01:10:20,380 --> 01:10:21,420 of the story 1015 01:10:21,420 --> 01:10:23,060 of christmas may that appeared 1016 01:10:23,060 --> 01:10:24,700 now just a couple of months ago 1017 01:10:24,700 --> 01:10:28,020 i thought to intercept and ask him if you would uh... explain that to us a 1018 01:10:28,020 --> 01:10:28,820 little bit about 1019 01:10:28,820 --> 01:10:32,100 uh... some of the flying saucer events that have touched his life 1020 01:10:32,100 --> 01:10:35,020 uh... you know what i mean to know that the article 1021 01:10:35,020 --> 01:10:35,940 that uh... 1022 01:10:35,940 --> 01:10:39,660 used to be a doting commas now uh... you know what made you change is that since 1023 01:10:39,660 --> 01:10:41,620 you uh... had not 1024 01:10:41,620 --> 01:10:43,460 seem what that point 1025 01:10:43,460 --> 01:10:45,340 well i said i had 1026 01:10:45,340 --> 01:10:50,500 contested money to make a very interesting other 1027 01:10:50,500 --> 01:10:52,940 i didn't think that 1028 01:10:52,940 --> 01:10:56,140 that i was a doting commas at the time 1029 01:10:56,140 --> 01:11:00,820 but i had been a long time ago and then the evidence just seemed to mount up 1030 01:11:00,820 --> 01:11:01,500 there were 1031 01:11:01,500 --> 01:11:02,900 people 1032 01:11:02,900 --> 01:11:06,060 in a position to recognize 1033 01:11:06,060 --> 01:11:07,060 that uh... 1034 01:11:07,060 --> 01:11:10,260 these things they observe are out of the ordinary 1035 01:11:10,260 --> 01:11:12,380 i could not ignore their testimony 1036 01:11:12,380 --> 01:11:15,780 we've had these people were qualified to know at least what they saw 1037 01:11:15,780 --> 01:11:16,940 exactly 1038 01:11:16,940 --> 01:11:21,620 what about your incident? how did your sighting come about of the UFO? 1039 01:11:21,620 --> 01:11:24,860 well i've described that all in this article 1040 01:11:25,860 --> 01:11:28,420 i just went down on the beach 1041 01:11:28,420 --> 01:11:31,420 in the very early evening 1042 01:11:31,420 --> 01:11:32,740 and uh... 1043 01:11:32,740 --> 01:11:35,060 i just drove down there 1044 01:11:35,060 --> 01:11:36,340 take a little walk 1045 01:11:36,340 --> 01:11:40,700 my editor and his wife were here from New York 1046 01:11:40,700 --> 01:11:44,300 we'd all been out together somewhere and come back to the house and they were 1047 01:11:44,300 --> 01:11:45,500 eating cocktails 1048 01:11:45,500 --> 01:11:47,820 i just thought i'd take a little stroll down the beach 1049 01:11:47,820 --> 01:11:49,180 i went down 1050 01:11:49,180 --> 01:11:53,660 looked to the southwest and here was this thing hanging in the sky 1051 01:11:53,660 --> 01:11:56,660 what was the distance from you approximately? 1052 01:11:56,660 --> 01:11:59,980 i had the slightest idea because it didn't know the size 1053 01:11:59,980 --> 01:12:02,380 but i knew it was motionless because 1054 01:12:02,380 --> 01:12:07,140 it didn't run advancing toward me because it didn't get any larger 1055 01:12:07,140 --> 01:12:10,620 it wasn't receding at the time 1056 01:12:10,620 --> 01:12:14,500 because it didn't get any smaller and it moved neither to right nor left 1057 01:12:14,500 --> 01:12:16,060 it was absolutely motionless 1058 01:12:16,060 --> 01:12:17,580 just uh... sat there 1059 01:12:17,580 --> 01:12:23,580 it looked like a half or a third of a top half of a third of a tangerine 1060 01:12:23,580 --> 01:12:24,780 although uh... 1061 01:12:24,780 --> 01:12:31,780 there i had to see that there was a slight risk across the bottom 1062 01:12:31,780 --> 01:12:34,780 i could just barely make that 1063 01:12:34,780 --> 01:12:37,780 did it have any uh... legs or these protrusions? 1064 01:12:37,780 --> 01:12:39,380 no it's too far away to 1065 01:12:39,380 --> 01:12:42,380 discover anything like that it was high in the air 1066 01:12:42,380 --> 01:12:47,660 how i don't know i guess there was a thing down to its relationship with the trees 1067 01:12:47,660 --> 01:12:50,340 on a point of land where it was 1068 01:12:50,340 --> 01:12:51,940 and then uh... 1069 01:12:51,940 --> 01:12:54,340 the next morning i used the instruments to 1070 01:12:54,340 --> 01:12:55,180 determine 1071 01:12:55,180 --> 01:12:57,340 the height of which it appeared 1072 01:12:57,340 --> 01:13:00,460 it was 11 degrees above the horizon 1073 01:13:00,460 --> 01:13:06,460 as for the compass reading the bearing would have been anywhere from 187 to 192 1074 01:13:06,460 --> 01:13:08,460 did anyone else see this with you? 1075 01:13:08,460 --> 01:13:10,580 there was an old doctor 1076 01:13:10,580 --> 01:13:13,580 who came out to face the next door 1077 01:13:13,580 --> 01:13:15,860 and he had rented a house there 1078 01:13:15,860 --> 01:13:18,620 and i ran down to 1079 01:13:18,620 --> 01:13:19,660 the old man 1080 01:13:19,660 --> 01:13:22,900 i pointed wildly and said look back to a look 1081 01:13:22,900 --> 01:13:25,860 and uh... 1082 01:13:25,860 --> 01:13:28,860 he looked wildly around the sky and 1083 01:13:28,860 --> 01:13:30,620 uh... 1084 01:13:30,620 --> 01:13:31,820 then he saw it 1085 01:13:31,820 --> 01:13:35,140 and i said what's that? 1086 01:13:35,140 --> 01:13:38,780 he tried to adjust his old eyes to this thing he said why uh... 1087 01:13:38,780 --> 01:13:40,020 isn't that 1088 01:13:40,020 --> 01:13:44,020 too airplane-free feeling in the mid air? 1089 01:13:44,020 --> 01:13:46,060 because apparently 1090 01:13:46,060 --> 01:13:49,020 he judged this as uh... 1091 01:13:49,180 --> 01:13:54,380 dark on the surface of this orange metallic object 1092 01:13:54,380 --> 01:13:58,660 the way you get any round surface you know and reflect sun on it 1093 01:13:58,660 --> 01:14:00,180 uh... the uh... 1094 01:14:00,180 --> 01:14:04,180 part that's brightest and shiny will be in the middle 1095 01:14:04,180 --> 01:14:07,780 matter of fact if you've got a beautiful woman's knee 1096 01:14:07,780 --> 01:14:09,040 with her 1097 01:14:09,040 --> 01:14:12,580 poli-glot looks that way you'll notice when you draw it or 1098 01:14:12,580 --> 01:14:13,540 observe it 1099 01:14:13,540 --> 01:14:14,780 that the 1100 01:14:14,780 --> 01:14:17,820 the round part of the object 1101 01:14:17,820 --> 01:14:18,820 here is you 1102 01:14:18,820 --> 01:14:20,540 on the curved surface 1103 01:14:20,540 --> 01:14:22,340 is shiny and brightest 1104 01:14:22,340 --> 01:14:25,340 you'll notice that too 1105 01:14:25,340 --> 01:14:28,980 too old to be where it's at 1106 01:14:28,980 --> 01:14:31,260 anyway 1107 01:14:31,260 --> 01:14:36,140 i said he had two airplanes refuting in the middle and they headed in opposite directions 1108 01:14:36,140 --> 01:14:38,700 he said yeah i guess they are 1109 01:14:38,700 --> 01:14:42,340 and then that moment he started to move 1110 01:14:42,340 --> 01:14:43,100 was uh... 1111 01:14:43,100 --> 01:14:47,260 unbelievable speed i've never seen any object where it was fast 1112 01:14:47,420 --> 01:14:50,420 from a typically still position to uh... 1113 01:14:50,420 --> 01:14:51,420 it just took off 1114 01:14:51,420 --> 01:14:53,860 uh... drawing into 1115 01:14:53,860 --> 01:14:56,860 pie into the southwest 1116 01:14:56,860 --> 01:14:59,500 and 1117 01:14:59,500 --> 01:15:01,500 another 1118 01:15:01,500 --> 01:15:03,940 neighbor appeared on the beach 1119 01:15:03,940 --> 01:15:07,140 my friend Dorothy Smith right beyond 1120 01:15:07,140 --> 01:15:12,340 and i screamed Dorothy Dorothy and started to order and before i could tell her that 1121 01:15:12,340 --> 01:15:14,340 hundred yards ago 1122 01:15:14,340 --> 01:15:16,820 uh... it was entirely gone 1123 01:15:17,140 --> 01:15:18,540 in your mind uh... 1124 01:15:18,540 --> 01:15:22,540 while you were seeing this and and and i have to try to discredit you know your 1125 01:15:22,540 --> 01:15:24,540 own credibility 1126 01:15:24,540 --> 01:15:27,540 i had believed that it is this 1127 01:15:27,540 --> 01:15:29,100 i thought what i'd like to 1128 01:15:29,100 --> 01:15:30,420 i know 1129 01:15:30,420 --> 01:15:34,220 for sure i just don't have to take anybody else's workforce 1130 01:15:34,220 --> 01:15:38,060 i had of course been loudly thought my house to try to uh... 1131 01:15:38,060 --> 01:15:42,020 get my wife and uh... my editor his wife 1132 01:15:42,020 --> 01:15:49,020 uh... the editor of the late time 1133 01:15:49,020 --> 01:15:51,020 i had to hide it 1134 01:15:51,020 --> 01:15:56,020 and i'm making cocktails and laughing and talking and i couldn't hear me at all 1135 01:15:56,020 --> 01:15:57,300 now uh... 1136 01:15:57,300 --> 01:16:00,020 you've seen your article in the popular science that you took this uh... 1137 01:16:00,020 --> 01:16:03,020 information to an air force colonel at mcdill seal it by time 1138 01:16:03,020 --> 01:16:04,580 i was a friend of mine 1139 01:16:04,580 --> 01:16:05,700 it was his reaction 1140 01:16:05,700 --> 01:16:07,980 and of course he believed it 1141 01:16:07,980 --> 01:16:08,580 he did 1142 01:16:08,580 --> 01:16:11,380 yeah that's my good cry 1143 01:16:11,540 --> 01:16:15,140 you see the rancid file in the air force 1144 01:16:15,140 --> 01:16:16,100 uh... 1145 01:16:16,100 --> 01:16:16,820 i know 1146 01:16:16,820 --> 01:16:23,500 a lot of people flyers who believe it may exist in the ufo 1147 01:16:23,500 --> 01:16:26,020 there's a policy 1148 01:16:26,020 --> 01:16:27,260 that would seem to 1149 01:16:27,260 --> 01:16:29,780 indicate 1150 01:16:29,780 --> 01:16:34,780 a high command 1151 01:16:34,780 --> 01:16:38,260 put down a structure 1152 01:16:38,420 --> 01:16:40,100 information 1153 01:16:40,100 --> 01:16:42,100 evaluation 1154 01:16:42,100 --> 01:16:44,100 general to me 1155 01:16:44,100 --> 01:16:45,260 denied that 1156 01:16:45,260 --> 01:16:47,340 to me and denied an impasse 1157 01:16:47,340 --> 01:16:48,900 that there's ever been 1158 01:16:48,900 --> 01:16:49,940 any policy 1159 01:16:49,940 --> 01:16:50,940 down 1160 01:16:50,940 --> 01:16:52,940 by the chief of staff or 1161 01:16:52,940 --> 01:16:55,940 any board or anyone at the pedicab 1162 01:16:55,940 --> 01:16:59,340 what about this uh... thing that uh... so many of the 1163 01:16:59,340 --> 01:17:06,100 diehard uh... ufologists talk about this uh... order two or two point two or something like that that uh... 1164 01:17:06,100 --> 01:17:07,620 makes it a little 1165 01:17:08,500 --> 01:17:12,660 against the regulations for them to speak to anyone concerning flying saucers 1166 01:17:12,660 --> 01:17:13,660 anyone in the ufo 1167 01:17:13,660 --> 01:17:18,420 well naturally you're going to get involved in something that may be classified 1168 01:17:18,420 --> 01:17:20,340 that's a very good order 1169 01:17:20,340 --> 01:17:22,060 because uh... 1170 01:17:22,060 --> 01:17:26,660 there are classified things that have been made public there are planes that 1171 01:17:26,660 --> 01:17:29,260 from time to time that are under wraps 1172 01:17:29,260 --> 01:17:31,060 and uh... 1173 01:17:31,060 --> 01:17:35,980 you just can't have an easy conversation on this subject 1174 01:17:35,980 --> 01:17:39,740 there was a time when I was with myself a top secret 1175 01:17:39,740 --> 01:17:40,740 and uh... 1176 01:17:40,740 --> 01:17:44,020 uh... was working as a technical shop for the air 1177 01:17:44,020 --> 01:17:45,580 chief of staff 1178 01:17:45,580 --> 01:17:47,220 that was back in the uh... 1179 01:17:47,220 --> 01:17:49,580 ran a big day 1180 01:17:49,580 --> 01:17:53,060 but i wouldn't discuss uf always with anyone 1181 01:17:53,060 --> 01:17:54,180 because i didn't 1182 01:17:54,180 --> 01:17:55,100 be guilty of 1183 01:17:55,100 --> 01:17:57,980 human unrelentingly divulging some 1184 01:17:57,980 --> 01:17:59,420 classified material 1185 01:17:59,420 --> 01:18:00,620 that's what i was surprised you 1186 01:18:00,620 --> 01:18:04,420 uh... you mentioned uh... colonel McCoy and you mentioned uh... general to me 1187 01:18:04,420 --> 01:18:06,420 the client 1188 01:18:06,420 --> 01:18:08,460 the client for space 1189 01:18:08,460 --> 01:18:11,420 uh... formerly 1190 01:18:11,420 --> 01:18:15,860 for several years ago he was killed up there 1191 01:18:15,860 --> 01:18:19,140 but according to what organizations like nikep say 1192 01:18:19,140 --> 01:18:23,460 uh... these officers cannot speak and yet they did speak to you 1193 01:18:23,460 --> 01:18:24,860 uh... 1194 01:18:24,860 --> 01:18:28,780 i think i see the reason why though on on second thought now uh... we have not 1195 01:18:28,780 --> 01:18:31,780 related yet that uh... this uh... setting of yours 1196 01:18:31,780 --> 01:18:35,220 was back in nineteen fifty four and this order probably has come down since 1197 01:18:35,220 --> 01:18:38,780 that time 1198 01:18:38,780 --> 01:18:41,780 that order may have been promulgated 1199 01:18:41,780 --> 01:18:43,140 later state 1200 01:18:43,140 --> 01:18:45,220 but at that time 1201 01:18:45,220 --> 01:18:46,740 you were getting a pretty rough 1202 01:18:46,740 --> 01:18:49,180 from these people to project blue book 1203 01:18:49,180 --> 01:18:53,060 the project blue book was the uh... official air force investigation into 1204 01:18:53,060 --> 01:18:54,620 other type of objects wasn't it? 1205 01:18:54,620 --> 01:18:57,060 yeah, these people up at the right path 1206 01:18:57,060 --> 01:18:57,700 now 1207 01:18:57,700 --> 01:18:58,220 um... 1208 01:18:58,220 --> 01:19:02,980 i told him that i said to mike, well here's what i saw this day and he says 1209 01:19:02,980 --> 01:19:04,860 what do you want to make out a report 1210 01:19:04,860 --> 01:19:08,140 and i said hell no, i don't want some character coming around and telling me i saw the planet 1211 01:19:08,140 --> 01:19:10,060 venus or something you know 1212 01:19:10,060 --> 01:19:12,980 and i knew that well i hadn't seen the planet venus 1213 01:19:12,980 --> 01:19:16,460 i mean i've seen it but i knew that it was this 1214 01:19:16,460 --> 01:19:19,340 what did your wife think about the sighting when you told her? 1215 01:19:19,340 --> 01:19:21,300 what did your wife think about the sighting when you told her? 1216 01:19:21,300 --> 01:19:24,780 it's been extremely jealous all these years since because she hasn't seen it 1217 01:19:24,820 --> 01:19:27,220 but at the beginning did she kind of uh... what kind of a... 1218 01:19:27,220 --> 01:19:30,700 well at the end of the week we both we've discussed it many times 1219 01:19:30,700 --> 01:19:33,460 uh... after i 1220 01:19:33,460 --> 01:19:34,700 uh... 1221 01:19:34,700 --> 01:19:40,940 dropped a part of the way from the job so that i wouldn't be unwittingly divulging anything classified to her 1222 01:19:40,940 --> 01:19:42,700 and we discussed uh... 1223 01:19:42,700 --> 01:19:46,100 for a long while i wouldn't talk about solace at all, i like it 1224 01:19:46,100 --> 01:19:47,780 uh... talk about what 1225 01:19:47,780 --> 01:19:49,180 was this thing that i saw? 1226 01:19:49,180 --> 01:19:52,900 you know, i wouldn't get into any general discussion 1227 01:19:52,980 --> 01:19:55,900 as i say, i was working for the airteam at the time 1228 01:19:55,900 --> 01:19:59,220 and i didn't want to break into security 1229 01:19:59,220 --> 01:20:02,100 as Mr. McKenna Lee Catter, the author of Andersonville 1230 01:20:02,100 --> 01:20:07,380 the Pulitzer Prize winning book and the conversation we had earlier today about his experience in sighting a flying saucer 1231 01:20:07,380 --> 01:20:09,180 we will talk about several other 1232 01:20:09,180 --> 01:20:14,420 uh... aspects of unidentified flying objects, a way of chance to play for you 1233 01:20:14,420 --> 01:20:17,020 at a later broadcast on flying saucers 1234 01:20:17,020 --> 01:20:22,300 right now let's get to some of those calls, wedding on the contact line, because we still have that fascinating story that i've heard before 1235 01:20:22,300 --> 01:20:24,180 a couple of years ago, i'd like for you to hear it 1236 01:20:24,180 --> 01:20:25,340 from Ken McBittman 1237 01:20:25,340 --> 01:20:31,100 but to those of you who have been waiting, let's have your calls right now, a quick reminder this is WKYC Cleveland, Ohio, NBC 1238 01:20:31,100 --> 01:20:33,180 and Cleveland, this is Harb Morgan, you're in contact 1239 01:20:33,180 --> 01:20:38,900 please tell me, have you ever heard of the Bermuda triangle? 1240 01:20:38,900 --> 01:20:39,420 yes 1241 01:20:39,420 --> 01:20:41,020 i was reading a book 1242 01:20:41,020 --> 01:20:44,660 i think it's called Invisible Horizons by Vincent Gattis 1243 01:20:44,660 --> 01:20:47,940 and it says in the book it says draw a line from Florida to Bermuda 1244 01:20:47,940 --> 01:20:51,500 and then it says in there from Bermuda to Puerto Rico 1245 01:20:51,540 --> 01:20:53,380 and i'll throw it back to Florida 1246 01:20:53,380 --> 01:20:56,580 and it has many discurrences of airplanes 1247 01:20:56,580 --> 01:20:59,620 and it has one on December 5th 1945 1248 01:20:59,620 --> 01:21:02,380 at 2pm, 2pm, 1pm 1249 01:21:02,380 --> 01:21:08,300 this is 5pm, TBM, Avenger torpedo bombers took off 1250 01:21:08,300 --> 01:21:10,060 and uh... 1251 01:21:10,060 --> 01:21:16,060 then the first word came from them at 3.45pm and they thought that they were going to have instructions to land 1252 01:21:16,060 --> 01:21:19,660 but the towers, but the people in the plane 1253 01:21:19,740 --> 01:21:23,100 they said, this is an emergency 1254 01:21:23,100 --> 01:21:25,780 and they said, we seem to be off course, we cannot see land 1255 01:21:25,780 --> 01:21:27,380 we cannot see land 1256 01:21:27,380 --> 01:21:30,460 and the guy in the tower says, what is your position? 1257 01:21:30,460 --> 01:21:34,820 the radio is powered back, we are not sure about the position, we cannot see 1258 01:21:34,820 --> 01:21:37,180 just where we are, we seem to be lost 1259 01:21:37,180 --> 01:21:40,100 then they asked, assume, then the people in the tower 1260 01:21:40,100 --> 01:21:44,220 total applied to assume, bring, do, west, the tower, instruct it 1261 01:21:44,220 --> 01:21:48,580 and then, but the guy in the plane he says, we don't know which way is west 1262 01:21:48,700 --> 01:21:52,620 he says, everything is wrong, strange, we cannot be sure of any direction 1263 01:21:52,620 --> 01:21:54,820 even the ocean doesn't look at all 1264 01:21:54,820 --> 01:21:55,940 and when did this happen? 1265 01:21:55,940 --> 01:21:58,340 December 5th 1945 1266 01:21:58,340 --> 01:21:59,580 it was at... 1267 01:21:59,580 --> 01:22:05,420 see, this was at the Naval Air Station in Fort Lauderdale, Florida 1268 01:22:05,420 --> 01:22:08,620 alright, so it was the essence of your question then, do the panelist here believe it? 1269 01:22:08,620 --> 01:22:09,420 yes 1270 01:22:09,420 --> 01:22:11,420 alright, let's check it out, George Fussett 1271 01:22:11,420 --> 01:22:15,500 well, the only thing I can say hard is that it's a well known fact that they 1272 01:22:15,620 --> 01:22:21,220 like the silent alien article, they disturb the magnetic field, which is from 30,000 feet up 1273 01:22:21,220 --> 01:22:24,420 they can disturb radio and TV 1274 01:22:24,420 --> 01:22:28,300 they have been known to have affected magnetic direction finders 1275 01:22:28,300 --> 01:22:31,300 and air direction finders also compasses 1276 01:22:31,300 --> 01:22:33,300 what about this Bermuda Triangle? 1277 01:22:33,300 --> 01:22:36,300 no, no, I read the article, the book just the other day 1278 01:22:36,300 --> 01:22:41,300 and I think he's done a tremendous job of documenting many of the plane that disappearances 1279 01:22:42,100 --> 01:22:47,100 and ships also in the Bermuda Triangle due to some kind of, I won't say, creek of nature 1280 01:22:47,100 --> 01:22:51,100 but due to some of the same characteristics that are observed when UFOs are near too 1281 01:22:51,100 --> 01:22:56,100 and do you connect the UFOs to these incidents, Alan? 1282 01:22:56,100 --> 01:23:01,100 well, I would have to because it was seen in the area at one time, I think it was in 47 or 48 1283 01:23:01,100 --> 01:23:03,100 where there was one in the area 1284 01:23:03,100 --> 01:23:07,100 and assistant, I guess there have been many planes, but not 17 at all, isn't it, Earl? 1285 01:23:07,100 --> 01:23:09,100 17 as far as I know 1286 01:23:09,900 --> 01:23:11,900 this is our Morgan contact 1287 01:23:11,900 --> 01:23:13,900 go ahead, please 1288 01:23:13,900 --> 01:23:18,900 how do you determine when these UFOs came from Venus 1289 01:23:18,900 --> 01:23:21,900 and what planets they came from? 1290 01:23:21,900 --> 01:23:24,900 this is, I guess, a question, really, a person's opinion 1291 01:23:24,900 --> 01:23:27,900 let's do a quick opinion poll right around here, Rick 1292 01:23:27,900 --> 01:23:30,900 it's just hard to say, they could be from another solar system 1293 01:23:30,900 --> 01:23:32,900 they could be from Mars, they could be from anywhere 1294 01:23:32,900 --> 01:23:34,900 Alan? 1295 01:23:34,900 --> 01:23:38,900 we're not making any claims where they're from, but they're definitely, we believe, extraterrestrial 1296 01:23:39,700 --> 01:23:43,700 when we go into space, we're going to the moon first, then to Mars, then to Venus, we hope 1297 01:23:43,700 --> 01:23:48,700 and so naturally, if something's coming into our area here 1298 01:23:48,700 --> 01:23:52,700 they're probably going to use those as stopping off spaces before they come here 1299 01:23:52,700 --> 01:23:55,700 so therefore they may be from beyond our solar system 1300 01:23:55,700 --> 01:23:58,700 merely using Mars or Venus or the moon before they get here 1301 01:23:58,700 --> 01:24:00,700 what do you think? 1302 01:24:00,700 --> 01:24:03,700 the different descriptions of the human beings that have been seen near the Arctic 1303 01:24:03,700 --> 01:24:06,700 in the Arctic and outside the Arctic home to ground 1304 01:24:06,700 --> 01:24:09,700 I'm not going to indicate that perhaps they come from many various races 1305 01:24:09,700 --> 01:24:13,700 beyond the home planet, but let's remember, even on our home planet here 1306 01:24:13,700 --> 01:24:17,700 we have Mitzitz and Duolks and Tigmis and some people who seem to be giants 1307 01:24:17,700 --> 01:24:19,700 compared to Mickey Ruth 1308 01:24:19,700 --> 01:24:24,700 yeah, but I just want to extend to reason that they would be sending those that depart so far from the norm 1309 01:24:24,700 --> 01:24:29,700 rather than life as it really is in a normal state 1310 01:24:29,700 --> 01:24:33,700 well, they seem to be humanoid and appearance and they do have eyes 1311 01:24:33,700 --> 01:24:37,700 they do have arms and legs and the focus bodies so to speak and heads 1312 01:24:37,700 --> 01:24:41,700 and they have certainly curious and they certainly are courageous 1313 01:24:41,700 --> 01:24:45,700 they certainly brave and certainly have a lot of intelligence behind it 1314 01:24:45,700 --> 01:24:47,700 let's have a next caller, it's 7814515 1315 01:24:47,700 --> 01:24:49,700 quickly this is Howard Morgan, contact 1316 01:24:49,700 --> 01:24:55,700 hello, I was a few years ago I came into contact with a book about flying saucers 1317 01:24:55,700 --> 01:25:02,700 and in this book there was a bunch of claims by people who had said they had seen saucers 1318 01:25:02,700 --> 01:25:06,700 and seen the people and gone in on for rides and these ships 1319 01:25:06,700 --> 01:25:12,700 and I was wondering if your organization has validated or investigated any of these reports 1320 01:25:12,700 --> 01:25:14,700 was that book by George Adamski? 1321 01:25:14,700 --> 01:25:16,700 I have no idea, it was quite a while ago 1322 01:25:16,700 --> 01:25:22,700 no contactee to the best of our knowledge has ever been able to prove his point 1323 01:25:22,700 --> 01:25:29,700 and this has been what we have believed here in the CUP, the Nephology Project 1324 01:25:29,700 --> 01:25:31,700 and Icap believes that, APRO believes it 1325 01:25:31,700 --> 01:25:37,700 I don't mean to disprove the fact that men like Lonnie Zamora, Socorro, New Mexico 1326 01:25:37,700 --> 01:25:41,700 the patrolmen didn't see creatures, yes creatures have been seen many times 1327 01:25:41,700 --> 01:25:44,700 but that doesn't mean that they talk in high German 1328 01:25:44,700 --> 01:25:46,700 all right, we'll have more calls coming up very shortly 1329 01:25:46,700 --> 01:25:49,700 it's 7814515, let me take just a short break 1330 01:25:49,700 --> 01:25:52,700 while you're reserving your place on the line 1331 01:25:52,700 --> 01:25:56,700 to bring in a good friend of mine, a fellow who last visited here on contact 1332 01:25:56,700 --> 01:25:59,700 I guess about two and a half years ago and at that time 1333 01:25:59,700 --> 01:26:03,700 I don't know, I'm still a skeptic girl after all these years 1334 01:26:03,700 --> 01:26:08,700 I've never seen one of these things, you call it what you will, a flying saucer 1335 01:26:08,700 --> 01:26:12,700 an unidentified flying object, but to me personally 1336 01:26:12,700 --> 01:26:18,700 when I've heard with these ears from people that I know of or see with my own eyes 1337 01:26:18,700 --> 01:26:22,700 I think the two most convincing experiences, let me put it in that category 1338 01:26:22,700 --> 01:26:26,700 the first one was from the experiences that I've heard was from Reverend Kenneth Hoffman 1339 01:26:26,700 --> 01:26:32,700 the Lutheran minister here in town and from another Kenneth, Ken Goodman 1340 01:26:32,700 --> 01:26:34,700 Ken, I'm glad you could take time to come up here and join us 1341 01:26:34,700 --> 01:26:37,700 and I wish that for the sake of the listeners that perhaps didn't hear it a couple of years ago 1342 01:26:37,700 --> 01:26:41,700 could you just briefly relate to me what happened to you and when and where 1343 01:26:41,700 --> 01:26:45,700 as I said two and a half years ago when I was on the show 1344 01:26:45,700 --> 01:26:48,700 I never really mentioned this to many people because it's the same old thing 1345 01:26:48,700 --> 01:26:51,700 well, what was he trying to do, he put somebody on so I kept it very quiet 1346 01:26:51,700 --> 01:26:54,700 my wife didn't even know about it for some time until one night I mentioned a lot that we discussed it 1347 01:26:54,700 --> 01:26:56,700 so you are a secretish 1348 01:26:56,700 --> 01:27:00,700 and I'm also very skeptical and I can see why people don't really believe these things exist 1349 01:27:00,700 --> 01:27:05,700 and if you recall that night that I was here, another gentleman was relating his story of a sighting 1350 01:27:05,700 --> 01:27:10,700 and I made the comment to him right on the air, I said, you know, I'm sitting here and I told you my sighting 1351 01:27:10,700 --> 01:27:14,700 and yet when you sit there and tell me your sighting, I tend not to want to believe you 1352 01:27:14,700 --> 01:27:16,700 that's kind of the same 1353 01:27:16,700 --> 01:27:23,700 well, it happened back in 1952 about February when I was in the Army taking basic training at Fort Jackson, South Carolina 1354 01:27:23,700 --> 01:27:30,700 I never did much as far as any readings about UFOs and at that time they were beginning to sight quite a few of them 1355 01:27:30,700 --> 01:27:36,700 this particular sighting occurred, I would imagine about 4.30 in the morning it was still very dark 1356 01:27:36,700 --> 01:27:42,700 the entire regiment, our training regiment was getting ready to board trucks to go out to the firing range 1357 01:27:42,700 --> 01:27:44,700 4.30 in the morning? 1358 01:27:44,700 --> 01:27:46,700 yeah, we get up early down there 1359 01:27:46,700 --> 01:27:52,700 and we were all lined up on this road more or less at a rest position waiting for the trucks to arrive 1360 01:27:52,700 --> 01:27:58,700 and it was a very clear night, not too many stars out and we were just sitting around showing the fat mostly 1361 01:27:58,700 --> 01:28:02,700 and a couple of sat in the nose up in the sky there was this bright light 1362 01:28:02,700 --> 01:28:05,700 well at first it was so far off it appeared to be just a star 1363 01:28:05,700 --> 01:28:09,700 then it began to move just a bit and we figured, well, it's another airliner 1364 01:28:09,700 --> 01:28:12,700 nothing much to do but look at the stars and sky anyhow 1365 01:28:12,700 --> 01:28:18,700 well the strange thing about this one was that all of a sudden still a very small object in the sky stopped suddenly 1366 01:28:18,700 --> 01:28:25,700 and this again attracted our attention to keep focused on it as I say a regiment of men were there 1367 01:28:25,700 --> 01:28:32,700 and we have later checked out a couple of these fellows who said that they will verify the fact that this was the sighting that we had seen that night 1368 01:28:32,700 --> 01:28:35,700 this we did about a year and a half ago with one of the UFO members here 1369 01:28:35,700 --> 01:28:42,700 at any rate the object would then again move, it would be very erratic, it would go up, it would go down to the left, to the right 1370 01:28:42,700 --> 01:28:46,700 and as it did these particular maneuvers it kept getting closer and closer 1371 01:28:46,700 --> 01:28:52,700 and we started sort of guessing what it might be, maybe it's a new helicopter or something of that nature 1372 01:28:52,700 --> 01:28:56,700 but the erratic movement of it was so fast that it couldn't have been a helicopter 1373 01:28:56,700 --> 01:29:01,700 and it kept up with this intense bright light that they always say the flying saucers have 1374 01:29:01,700 --> 01:29:07,700 and it got much closer to us and it finally got to the point as I say continuing with these erratic maneuvers 1375 01:29:07,700 --> 01:29:12,700 were just holding still for several seconds but it was out there the total time I guess maybe ten minutes 1376 01:29:12,700 --> 01:29:15,700 it was hard to judge, you stand there with these chills running up and down your spine 1377 01:29:15,700 --> 01:29:18,700 and you begin to realize this has got to be a flying saucer 1378 01:29:18,700 --> 01:29:25,700 and it pulled out, I would say from where we are in the studio here at 6 in Rockwell to the terminal tower building 1379 01:29:25,700 --> 01:29:27,700 which was probably several thousand feet up 1380 01:29:27,700 --> 01:29:28,700 they got that close to you? 1381 01:29:28,700 --> 01:29:33,700 Yeah, it was rather close to the point where you could actually see portholes in it 1382 01:29:33,700 --> 01:29:37,700 and this was really the clincher that you had to believe this was a flying saucer 1383 01:29:37,700 --> 01:29:41,700 it was the oval shaped type thing, the saucer shape 1384 01:29:41,700 --> 01:29:44,700 and the four or five portholes were very discernible 1385 01:29:44,700 --> 01:29:49,700 there was the light brighter inside the portholes than the actual glow of the saucer itself 1386 01:29:49,700 --> 01:29:53,700 they were very very bright lights in it so the portholes did stand out well 1387 01:29:53,700 --> 01:29:56,700 and then it did a rather strange thing 1388 01:29:56,700 --> 01:30:00,700 and if you recall perhaps after the program or while the program was still in progress 1389 01:30:00,700 --> 01:30:06,700 the last time I was here I hadn't known about the fact that other people made this similar type of sighting 1390 01:30:06,700 --> 01:30:11,700 a bright search light sent a beam down from the bottom of the ship 1391 01:30:11,700 --> 01:30:14,700 and it would blink on and off 1392 01:30:14,700 --> 01:30:17,700 and it was a real weird thing to sit there and just watch this thing 1393 01:30:17,700 --> 01:30:22,700 and then all of a sudden for no reason at all other than the fact that I guess it wanted to go 1394 01:30:22,700 --> 01:30:28,700 it turned into a red glow and all we could figure after it left was the fact that it had turned directly opposite from us 1395 01:30:28,700 --> 01:30:34,700 and we saw the evidently jet type exhaust because it turned into this reddish orange ball 1396 01:30:34,700 --> 01:30:38,700 and within just a split second just like that it was gone 1397 01:30:38,700 --> 01:30:43,700 and right out of sight it moved at such fantastic speed we just discounted any facts that it could have been something from this planet 1398 01:30:43,700 --> 01:30:49,700 because at that time and even since then I've yet to hear of any plane or any type object that we have 1399 01:30:49,700 --> 01:30:54,700 and that was back in 52 up to this present date that could possibly go that fast or sit still in air 1400 01:30:54,700 --> 01:30:57,700 and move as erratic as that one did 1401 01:30:57,700 --> 01:31:00,700 so our only assumption was that it had to be a flying saucer 1402 01:31:00,700 --> 01:31:03,700 You were outside the barracks or you were already out at the campsite 1403 01:31:03,700 --> 01:31:06,700 We were outside behind the barracks on a roadway 1404 01:31:06,700 --> 01:31:08,700 it's an area known as Tank Hill in Fort Jackson 1405 01:31:08,700 --> 01:31:10,700 We know it very well 1406 01:31:10,700 --> 01:31:12,700 I was stationed there myself 1407 01:31:12,700 --> 01:31:14,700 It's the highest elevation in the area 1408 01:31:14,700 --> 01:31:18,700 and from there you get a good view of almost the entire countryside all the way over to Columbia 1409 01:31:18,700 --> 01:31:22,700 and it seemed to be centered more between Jackson and Columbia 1410 01:31:22,700 --> 01:31:24,700 Fort Jackson and Columbia, South Carolina 1411 01:31:24,700 --> 01:31:27,700 but it was close enough that we could actually see these portholes we saw in the morning 1412 01:31:27,700 --> 01:31:28,700 People that were dark? 1413 01:31:28,700 --> 01:31:29,700 Oh yeah 1414 01:31:29,700 --> 01:31:30,700 Portholes were lit up inside 1415 01:31:30,700 --> 01:31:32,700 The inside of the ship was lit 1416 01:31:32,700 --> 01:31:36,700 and the light beaming through the portholes was brighter than the actual glow of the saucer itself 1417 01:31:36,700 --> 01:31:40,700 and I guess the reason it went is we started to get a daybreak about that time 1418 01:31:40,700 --> 01:31:43,700 and while it was just beginning to get a little light in the sky 1419 01:31:43,700 --> 01:31:44,700 he just took off 1420 01:31:44,700 --> 01:31:46,700 How many people are actually... 1421 01:31:46,700 --> 01:31:47,700 1,500, didn't you? 1422 01:31:47,700 --> 01:31:48,700 Yeah, 1,500 1423 01:31:48,700 --> 01:31:52,700 It was a training regiment which would probably be anywhere from 1,000 to 1,500 men out there 1424 01:31:52,700 --> 01:31:53,700 That's good enough confirmation 1425 01:31:53,700 --> 01:32:00,700 This is why Professor Charles Manning, the astrophysicist said it's one of the finest cases can he's ever heard of 1426 01:32:00,700 --> 01:32:03,700 What about the immediate group of men though right around you 1427 01:32:03,700 --> 01:32:06,700 Now you were standing in the cluster of how many men gabbing and... 1428 01:32:06,700 --> 01:32:09,700 Oh I guess there were about four or five of us in this one particular group 1429 01:32:09,700 --> 01:32:11,700 I was a platoon leader, platoon sergeant at the time 1430 01:32:11,700 --> 01:32:13,700 and I had my squad leaders with me 1431 01:32:13,700 --> 01:32:16,700 and we were just... of course everybody was looking at it, sort of dumbfounded 1432 01:32:16,700 --> 01:32:18,700 What kind of conversation was going on between you? 1433 01:32:18,700 --> 01:32:20,700 Just like the thing, what is it? 1434 01:32:20,700 --> 01:32:21,700 What can it be? 1435 01:32:21,700 --> 01:32:22,700 Has it got to be a flying saucer? 1436 01:32:22,700 --> 01:32:24,700 Because at that time there were a lot of sightings 1437 01:32:24,700 --> 01:32:25,700 but we were sort of out of it 1438 01:32:25,700 --> 01:32:28,700 but when you're in basic training you don't read newspapers and things like that 1439 01:32:28,700 --> 01:32:29,700 You didn't know what was happening to me 1440 01:32:29,700 --> 01:32:31,700 We were already coming, we were like, yeah 1441 01:32:31,700 --> 01:32:35,700 but that was a general talk like it's just unbelievable 1442 01:32:35,700 --> 01:32:37,700 that we here could see a flying saucer 1443 01:32:37,700 --> 01:32:40,700 You may hear of other people seeing it and never think you'll ever see one 1444 01:32:40,700 --> 01:32:41,700 and then when the time comes 1445 01:32:41,700 --> 01:32:44,700 like I say, all you do is get these chills going up and down your back 1446 01:32:44,700 --> 01:32:46,700 and when I hear these other stories about people 1447 01:32:46,700 --> 01:32:49,700 this fellow that you just now had 1448 01:32:49,700 --> 01:32:51,700 When he was talking about sighting it 1449 01:32:51,700 --> 01:32:54,700 I could feel the chills going up and down my back again 1450 01:32:54,700 --> 01:32:55,700 because I know what he went through 1451 01:32:55,700 --> 01:32:56,700 because if you ever see one 1452 01:32:56,700 --> 01:32:58,700 you get the weirdest feeling you ever had 1453 01:32:58,700 --> 01:33:01,700 because you know this thing's got to be from way out there 1454 01:33:01,700 --> 01:33:02,700 and you just don't... 1455 01:33:02,700 --> 01:33:06,700 it's always impossible to comprehend that there can be life outside of our own system 1456 01:33:06,700 --> 01:33:08,700 that could come here and if they wanted to 1457 01:33:08,700 --> 01:33:09,700 easily destroy us 1458 01:33:09,700 --> 01:33:11,700 because they have a machine that can get here like that 1459 01:33:11,700 --> 01:33:14,700 they sure must have the weapons to do whatever they want to do 1460 01:33:14,700 --> 01:33:17,700 but evidently it must be very peaceful and just checking us out 1461 01:33:17,700 --> 01:33:19,700 and that's about the way it looks 1462 01:33:19,700 --> 01:33:20,700 What was the follow up now? 1463 01:33:20,700 --> 01:33:21,700 Of course you're getting the truck 1464 01:33:21,700 --> 01:33:23,700 because this thing doesn't just vanish from your mind 1465 01:33:23,700 --> 01:33:25,700 you throw it in your mind and the rest of that day 1466 01:33:25,700 --> 01:33:26,700 and days to follow 1467 01:33:26,700 --> 01:33:29,700 What sort of conclusions did the guys come to? 1468 01:33:29,700 --> 01:33:33,700 There really wasn't much of a conclusion with the situation 1469 01:33:33,700 --> 01:33:35,700 The guys just sort of talked about it a little bit 1470 01:33:35,700 --> 01:33:37,700 but you get wrapped up in your basic training 1471 01:33:37,700 --> 01:33:39,700 you know you get up at 4 o'clock in the morning 1472 01:33:39,700 --> 01:33:42,700 you don't go to bed till midnight or 1 or 2 1473 01:33:42,700 --> 01:33:44,700 and it sort of goes out of the picture pretty quick 1474 01:33:44,700 --> 01:33:47,700 whether the officers involved around the area 1475 01:33:47,700 --> 01:33:49,700 made any report of it or not, I don't know 1476 01:33:49,700 --> 01:33:51,700 but nothing ever was said anymore about it 1477 01:33:51,700 --> 01:33:53,700 it was just quiet and that was it 1478 01:33:53,700 --> 01:33:55,700 No one reported it to the... 1479 01:33:55,700 --> 01:33:56,700 what is it, CIC or whatever? 1480 01:33:56,700 --> 01:33:57,700 Evidently not 1481 01:33:57,700 --> 01:33:58,700 No one in our area did 1482 01:33:58,700 --> 01:34:01,700 No, we just boarded our trucks when they came up and took off 1483 01:34:01,700 --> 01:34:03,700 and figured if the officers wanted to know about it 1484 01:34:03,700 --> 01:34:04,700 why that's their prerogative 1485 01:34:04,700 --> 01:34:07,700 we just sort of... as a trainee you start to say out of it 1486 01:34:07,700 --> 01:34:09,700 And there were no corroborating reports from civilians 1487 01:34:09,700 --> 01:34:11,700 they in the Columbia, South Carolina papers? 1488 01:34:11,700 --> 01:34:13,700 No, I can say we didn't read any papers 1489 01:34:13,700 --> 01:34:15,700 we had no papers up in there 1490 01:34:15,700 --> 01:34:17,700 and there may have well been 1491 01:34:17,700 --> 01:34:21,700 because I recall later on hearing reports 1492 01:34:21,700 --> 01:34:24,700 especially in 52 and 53 of a lot of flying saucer sightings 1493 01:34:24,700 --> 01:34:25,700 throughout the southeast 1494 01:34:25,700 --> 01:34:28,700 so this could have just been another saucer that came along 1495 01:34:28,700 --> 01:34:31,700 Now to show you how very little communication 1496 01:34:31,700 --> 01:34:34,700 sometimes there is even at the same camp 1497 01:34:34,700 --> 01:34:36,700 as I told you two and a half years ago 1498 01:34:36,700 --> 01:34:39,700 at the exact same time that Ken saw this flying saucer 1499 01:34:39,700 --> 01:34:44,700 I was news director of the Army radio station at Fort Jackson 1500 01:34:44,700 --> 01:34:47,700 on the very week, the very days, the very months 1501 01:34:47,700 --> 01:34:49,700 that this thing took place 1502 01:34:49,700 --> 01:34:51,700 and I didn't hear an Iota about it 1503 01:34:51,700 --> 01:34:53,700 and you would think that they're on the camp 1504 01:34:53,700 --> 01:34:55,700 that certainly you
