Ubatuba (Brazil). Approximate date. Anonymous<br />
witnesses saw a disk dive down and explode, showering<br />
the area with flaming fragments. Some samples<br />
were gathered, sent to a Brazilian newsman, analyzed<br />
by friends of Dr. Fontes, of Rio, and were found to<br />
consist of surprisingly pure magnesium. (Lor.190; 110)<br />
Smithfield (Australia). Les McDonald, 17, and<br />
Gladys Smith, 14, saw a red light changing to green,<br />
spreading around them like a mist and covering an<br />
area about 100 m diameter. They became nearly<br />
paralyzed and "felt a warm glow." They had no fear,<br />
but were "merely cognizant of things as they were<br />
without being able to react." This sensation lasted<br />
two min. (UFO Bulletin Dec, 57)<br />
Point Pleasant (New Jersey). A boomerang-shaped<br />
object bigger than a house was reported to have<br />
landed. Grass flattened. (Atic)<br />
Yellow Falls (Texas). Three hundred people were<br />
said to have seen three elongated objects with a series<br />
of portholes, maneuvering at ground level in an area<br />
with many empty oil wells. One of these objects, said<br />
to be 150 m long and 20 m high, pearl-colored, glistening<br />
under the setting sun and showing a series of<br />
circles painted on its surface, landed for 20 min. An<br />
occupant emerged, observed the abandoned derricks<br />
and took off again. Observed through binoculars, he<br />
appeared as a "monster," 1 m tall, moving with<br />
strange jumps. He picked up something from the<br />
ground. (Perego)<br />
Deerwood Nike Base (Maryland). Undocumented<br />
report of a landing observed by missile men. (Keyhoe<br />
S)<br />
Niquelandia (Brazil). At the Gabiroba farm, owners<br />
A. Santinoni and S. de Oliveira were blinded by a<br />

beam from a round object at ground level. The light<br />
was green and yellow. When they came near, all went<br />
dark and the object vanished. (Round-up 205)<br />
Francisco de Sales (Brazil). Antonio Villas-Boas who<br />
could not sleep because of the heat, opened the<br />
shutters of his house and saw a silvery glow in the<br />
yard, but no flying object. The light moved and was<br />
seen going over the house. (FSR 66, 4; Magonia)<br />
Nabouwalu (Fiji Islands). Two couples going from<br />
Nabouwalu to Nawaca in a motor boat saw a white<br />
object come down from the sky, thought it was a<br />
plane in trouble and went closer. They found the<br />
object hovering 7 m above the water, and a figure on<br />
board the craft aimed at them a beam so bright they<br />
"felt weak." The figure disappeared suddenly, and<br />
the object took off vertically at high speed. (Round-up<br />

Schenectady (New York). Mrs. Edward Yeager, who<br />
lived in a trailer on the Duanesburg-Church Road<br />
near Mariaville, saw a circular object go down behind<br />
the hill. Two min later it flew up again, very bright.<br />
The next day she was feeding animals that ran away<br />
as the same or a similar object came within 2 m of the<br />
ground. Two dark, little men came out of the craft<br />
and went into the woods. The object remained there<br />
two min, then left. A search for the occupants proved<br />
futile. A bus driver was said to have seen two craft<br />
land in a nearby field at the same hour. (FSR 58, 3)<br />
Ouebracoco (Brazil). Naval officer Miguel Espanhol<br />
and another man, traveling to Ceres, saw a bright<br />
object that illuminated the countryside and came<br />
down to ground level as the truck stalled. It was oval<br />
or saucer-shaped, over 150 m in diameter and 40 m<br />
deep, with a dome supporting a long "aerial" with a<br />
red light on top. The bright light went off, and the<br />
witnesses saw seven childlike beings, with long hair
