PAGE SIX SECTION TWO w— . Frankly Speaking { Ey FRANK ROBERTS ! Making the big headlines these days are the trips through space, the Mississippi problem and a host of other items. Still being suppressed by the air force and the press are the stories concerning unidentified flying objects. A series of articles on UFO’s which I tan about a year ago created some interest. This important subject could actually cover pages and pages, but in the space I have I can only scratch the surface. Once again, then, I’d like to take this op-, portunity to help you come out from under the dark clouds of • censorship, with a few. facts on the subject of UFO’s, or flying saucers, if vou prefer that name. | To start with: an air force order now decrees that all statements, quotations, etc., must be review ed by the proper military au thorities, if they concern any thing the military might be con nected with. This includes re ports on UFO’s. Prior to this; order, the air force took the of ficial stand that UFO’s, ?.s such, I j do not exist. Question: if! t.i ■; don’t exist, why bother is- ' s g orders, censoring items' a ut them? in another track: Despite ct sorship of published repot ts, h dreds and hundreds of sight-, i continue. These are sight i i's made by reliable people; .s:.Sitings sometimes on the same ceject, seen miles apart by dif ferent people, sightings that can not be described as hallucina tions or hysteria, yet sightings that cannot be rationally ex plained in connection with any thing we know of today. For one Example: a globe-shaped ma chine, speeding over England, was seen by the crew and pass engers of an Irish International Airlines plane, bound for Brus sels. The captain of the plane, a former RAF pilot, was one of those who’d been a skeptic, un til that UFO streaked under his 4-engine Viscount. He described the object as round, with anten nae. After his sighting was re ported, the RAF and the air ministry began their investiga tions. Another item: the Argen- i tine government officially re ported a flying saucer landing in La Pampa. Prior to the land ing, numerous sightings, from five different provinces, were re ported. The UFO landing was FAN SPECIALS FOR ■ H L L Thursday - Friday - Saturday 1 OCTOBER 11, 12, 13 ' — 143x72 Count Broadcloth -fiiyifllr DRESS SHIRTS v|y^7 l \Vsn.

An Argentine air force of-1 i fice said that .experts confirmed j ' that the ground was scorched in i an 18-foot circle. Incidentally,! hundreds of sightings in that J : five province area had been con- j ; firmed by police and the press. In addition, reports had it that the machines, flew in precise for-1 mation and flew faster than jets. ! Other side notes on this sighting:; J one UFO device descended and shone a beam of light on the ground, then swiftly rejoined the group And . . . Argentine sci entists are studying a UFO pho j to. And . . . still another land ing was reported in that general vicinity, by other witnesses who knew nothing of the original re port. From that landing, sam ples of a wet, grayish substance at the landing point, were scoop ed up and taken to a nearby na val base for analysis. Next topic. Let’s get back to j the air force. Early this year, j they released to the press, a j statement saying that the sub ! jeet of flying saucers is all j washed up. The press dutifully 1 printed this release. People read 'and, unfortunately, most of them ! believed. Now, a look at the | official facts: The air force has I admitted the probe on UFO’s is still on, and even admitted the operation was a huge-sized one. In addition: Major .C- R. Hart, the UFO Information Officer for the air force said that the UFO investigations involve hundreds of air force intelligence officers. He said that the best scientific brains available in the labora tories of all governmental agen cies are working on this project, along with scientific investigators in commercial laboratories. He also admitted that the chief AF-UFO consultant, Dr. J. Al len Hynek, has conferred with the world’s leading scientists re garding the UFO problem. The air force did refuse to reveal the cost of this large-scale project, but one indication has it at SIO,OOO for every major sighting investigation. This was disclosed by Lt, Col. Spencer Whedon of air force technical intelligence. Now we know that sightings are still going on. Now we know that despite denials to the pub lic, the air force is still very in terested and very concerned about the subject of unidentified flying objects. With those facts' THE CHOWAN HERALD.
