swept the area with a light beam. A strange being,<br />
1.80 m tall, was seen. Police report. (167; FSR 66, 6)<br />
Rushville (Indiana). Several young witnesses reported<br />
seeing an unidentified object at low altitude. (Lor.<br />
Ill 109)<br />
Texas. A civilian man and his family observed a dark<br />
object hovering near their isolated house. It had a<br />
square "door" emitting a yellow light. Three children<br />
saw a dwarf through the opening. He was dressed in<br />
shiny black coveralls. The object left slowly with a<br />
soft humming sound. (Atic; Magonia)<br />
Barinas (Venezuela). Three hunters, E. Beucomo,<br />
J. Zapata and J. Ramos, observed a strange glow in the<br />
forest and discovered a very large, egg-shaped object,<br />
stationary 2 m above ground. It had large, circular<br />
openings emitting a multicolored light, and it made a<br />
whistling sound. The hunters ran away. (APRO<br />
Sept., 66)<br />
Donnybrook (North Dakota). A border patrolman<br />
saw a bright, shiny disk on its edge, 10 m in diameter,<br />
5 m high, floating down the side of a hill, wobbling<br />
from side to side 3 m above ground. It reached the<br />
valley floor, climbed to about 30 m, and moved across<br />
to a small reservoir where it assumed a horizontal position.<br />
A dome then became visible on top of the disk.<br />
It hovered for one min and seemed about to land less<br />
than 80 m away, but tilted back on edge and flew into<br />
the clouds at high speed. (Atic)<br />
Heraldsburg (California). Otto Becker, his son, and<br />
daughter-in-law woke up to find the whole house<br />
bathed in bright light, and they observed a "six-story"<br />
object at treetop level 60 m away. It gave off rainbow<br />
colors which appeared to pour off its edges "like<br />
water" in a fantastic display. Distinct engine noise<br />
was heard before it took off vertically. Domestic<br />

evening<br />
animals had been greatly disturbed, and the witnesses<br />
had inflamed eyes for several days. (Gribble Jan., 67)<br />
Niteroi (Brazil). A woman called police to report a<br />
luminous object rising and descending on top of a<br />
high hill. When policemen climbed to the site they<br />
found the bodies of two men, electronics technicians<br />
Pereira da Cruz and Viana. The bodies had lead<br />
masks on the upper part of the face. An autopsy failed<br />
to disclose the cause of death. Investigation disclosed<br />
several earlier incidents and an organization to which<br />
these men belonged. (Personal)<br />
Minot Air Force Base (North Dakota). An airman<br />
observed and reported by radio a multi-colored light<br />
high in the sky. A strike team was sent to his location<br />
and confirmed the unknown. A second object, white,<br />
was seen to pass in front of clouds. At the radar base,<br />
an object was detected and tracked. The observations<br />
lasted nearly 4 hours and were confirmed by three<br />
different missile sites. Radio interference was noted<br />
by teams sent to locations where the object was sometimes<br />
described as hovering at ground level. (Atic)<br />
El Campo (Texas). A police officer was driving at<br />
nearly 200 km/h toward the north on Route 71 when<br />
he suddenly saw an object on the road ahead and<br />
another one following his car. The first one looked<br />
like a flaming car and was the size of a 3-story house.<br />
It flew away as the policeman was about to hit it<br />
(168)<br />
Texas. Two young witnesses went outside when the<br />
TV set became blurred. They observed a fantastic<br />
spinning light illuminating the house. It came from<br />
an object hovering at the same location as an earlier<br />
sighting (see Case 786). (Atic; Magonia)<br />
Texas. A civilian man observed a peculiar light<br />
phenomenon and a small figure that appeared to
