from the road and flew away. (Personal)<br />
Grosseto (Italy). Near Grosseto, Ermellina Lanzillo,<br />
who was looking for her cat, saw from her window<br />
a strange entity standing in the garden. The being<br />
appeared fat and had narrow shoulders, apelike eyes,<br />
and a head like a diving helmet. Paralyzed with terror,<br />
she regained self-control when called by her niece and<br />
withdrew from the window. (94)<br />
Mesples (France). A 14-year-old child slight asylum<br />
in the farmhouse owned by Mrs. Gentil, crying that<br />

it vanished. Investigation by local police. (Personal)<br />

hunters. One touched the ground 50 m away. It was<br />
rhomboidic, and from the bottom a cylinder was<br />
hanging. A peculiar sound could be heard. The object<br />

three times. Then the craft gained altitude and<br />
flew away, leaving a bluish trail. (82)<br />

4.5 m, emitted a bright light similar to a welder's<br />
torch. It came back, turned, and flew to the southwest.<br />
It made the same noise as a swarm of bees.<br />
(Personal)<br />
Poggio d'Ambra (Italy). A 40-year-old lady going to<br />
a cemetery suddenly observed an object, shaped like<br />
two cones with a common base, resting on a grassy<br />
space. Two small seats were visible inside the lower<br />
cone. From behind the object appeared two dwarfs,<br />
1 m tall, wearing gray coveralls and reddish helmets.<br />
Speaking words she could not understand, and with<br />
smiles that showed fine white teeth, they took a pot<br />
of flowers from the witness and flew away. (Personal;<br />

in a bluish cloud. The witnesses ran away. (90)<br />
Oued Beth (Morocco). Maroc-Presse reported that<br />
one of its employees, Mr. E., driver of a delivery truck,<br />
"a man of sane judgment and excellent eyesight,"<br />
observed an object flying over the Beth River. "I am<br />
positive it was not an aircraft or any known machine,<br />
but a circular, flat craft which had the appearance of<br />
copper. It flew normally for some time, then it suddenly<br />
flipped over. Therefore, I was able to see the<br />
whole disk and was amazed when it came down into a<br />
field where it landed on edge, very gently. Almost immediately<br />
it rose into the sky at great speed, resumed<br />
its horizontal position and was soon lost to sight."<br />
(95)<br />
Pontal (Brazil). Jose Alves was fishing in the Pardo<br />
River when he suddenly saw a craft approach with a<br />
wobbling motion and landing near him. Shaped like<br />
two washbowls placed together, it was about 4,5 m in
