< 40 feet ) A sketch of the unidentified flying object as described by John Kryschuk of Beause­jour. Mr. Kryschuk says that the object hovered over his truck when he stopped on the highway, then followed him some four miles to Beausejour before suddenly flying away "like a bolt of lightning." Seven other people at Brokenhead reported having seen &trange flying objects the next evening.

Editor's notes

Regular readers of this publication know that we had a real flap last year in Canada, especially in our western provinces. We had fully intended documenting every sighting but looking at our many reports decided to keep them in our files for reference only. There were just too many and would have taken up an entire issue even though briefly described. We will continue with recent reports this time, again using only the more un­usual stories.

We're living in a new age. The visual age. The age of graphics. Today nearly everything is ori­

ented towar�s sight. And sound. Although we &ren't enclosing phonograph records with SS&S, we are trying to give you a better visual approaco to supplement the reading material on every pe�e. We feel you will grasp the situation even faster if you have an artist s interpretation to accompany the stories. From now on, as much as will be possible to illustrate events for you will be a feature we hope you'll enjoy. The sketches and photos will not be extra large if a suitable smaller one will suffice. After all, the printed word is a necessary prerequisite to ensure all details are in­cluded. We are delighted to see that at least three u.s. ufozines are starting the trend to illustrated, offset publications.

We'd like to mention to our readers who send us mail that due to the amount of material received from them and other sources, it is not always possible to answer immediately. So don't despair, we do our best to reply to every letter that needs an answer, even if it takes a month or more to get around to it. If we answered everything right away we'd never get any work done on our publication plus the other requests we get for artwork, articles, etc.

We received a letter the other day that may interest some of you with simi­lar ideas. Mrs. Marian Nigl asked us "Why not give SS&S a new catchy name • • •

like uThe Last Frontier", then an auxiliary heading re the flying saucers. Mrs. Nigl suggests it would appeal to a better class, students, etc. Our answer to this is that I've always felt when an editor changes the name of his magazine (as some have TOO often), he loses the identity his readers have built up between him and his magazine. The meaning of the name itself isn't of primary importance, but who is behind it and what it stands for.

I'd also like to take a little space to thank those anonymous donors of "The Fly in� Saucer Reader", "Flying Saucers Where Do They Come From" and "UFO -HO HO.". They are welcome additions to our library.

In SS&S #49 we reported the Shag Harbor, N.S., incident. Do you know what unofficial sources say the object was? They say it was a "stray" missile fired from Vandenburg AFB in California. This is only 3,000 miles away! We hope everyone in the line of fire will raise hell with the gov't authori­ties, even though this explanation is utterly ridiculous!

COVER STORY; "REPORT FROM CANADA" is a new column starting in the Fall issue of Saucer News and written by your editor. It will contain unusual reports from this country. SN's address is on page 19 of this issue.

The sketch and story o� the UFO was printed in the April 9th edition of THE B�VER, a Manitoban newspaper. The event occurred on April 3rd of this year ? on P.T.H. 12 near Beausejour. It took place around 11:30 p.m. and the UFO was about 400 feet above the highway and directly above the witne·ss. It gave off a very strange loud humming noise. Seven bands of different colored lights were spinning around the object as though they were on belts. Mr. Kry­schuk watched it for 10 minutes, got into his truck & the UFO followed him the remaining 4 miles where it went into the southwest like a lightning bolt.

CANADIAN REPORTS 3-PLATE-SHAPED UFOs SIGHTED - A Cavan Township family claims to have watch­ed three yellow objects in a V-formation speeding eastward above their home. It happened on March 17 at 4 : 50 p.m. Dan Mills, 55, who says he studied the objects through a powerful pair of binoculars, as did his wife and son est­imated the speed at 450 mph and about a mile high. They disappeared r�om view after 30 seconds or so. He and Mrs. Mills said that at 8:30 the same day a radio station reported a woman had telephoned to say she had seen si­milar objects some miles east of the Mills home. Mr. Mills claimed he had been sighting UFOs since the mid-1930s, and always in the Cavan Twp. area.

UFO BEEPS ON RECORD - A tape recording of UFO beepings was made by Mrs. G.C. Marshal! of Midnapore, Alberta. The noise is a strange regular beeping and is a new feature added to the rash o f UFO s1ghtings in the Calgary area. The tape is one of many which have been made. Earlier this year the first visual sighting �oinciding with the sound was made in the Bragg Creek area. At least eight witnesses were present near the home of Harold N orton near Bragg Creek when the UFO was sighted. Russell Hill, the High River forestry tower lookout who has reported UFOs a number or times, claims he has heard the beeping noise on his radio on dif­ferent occasions. He says other forest rangers have had a similar experi­ence. (Calgary Albertan, April 1, 1968)

OVAL-S HAPED, GREEN UFO MAKES LANDING - G. Lovatt of N orth Bay, Ont., and a second person were sitting in a car on Hwy. 63 when they saw the object, about 75 feet in diameter appear to land in the bush near Balsam Creek. It was at a 30-degree angle with the highway. The object seemed to pulsate at

Aive-second intervals and was about a quarter mile away from them. They aw the object for more than 10 seconds. It was moving smoothly and much

lower than a meteor. The sighting was made at 3:25 a.m. ·

A NORAD Region spokesman at North Bay said that radar scopes at the SAGE complex failed to record any irregular activities in the sky over the area. A member of the Nugget staff was awakened by the roaring passage of the ob­ject overhead. He said the roar was accompanied by a flare of light pul­sating from green to white that illuminated the interior of his home. (The North Bay N ugget, April 8, 1968)

The Stratford Beacon-Herald received this photo in the mail on March 26 from a person that did not include his name because'�eople would laugh at him if it was mentioned". The writer said he saw something in Queen's Park made of metal that flew by very quickly and was 20 to 30 feet across. The object was seen by the writer and two friends with him at the time. He explained he had been in the park to take pictures of the Strat­ford Festival building so he snapped this and another picture of the object. He closed the letter by saying "Up un­til this time I did not believe in fly­ing saucers.'' (Source: The Stratford Beacon-Herald, Ontario, March 27, 1968.)

NELSON FAMILY SEES FOUR UFOs The above photo is a photographer's interpretation of UFOs based on des­criptions of Nelson residents as the objects flew above Elephant Mtn. The sighting took place on Friday, Jan. 5, 1968. The four UFOs hovered abo ve the CBC tower. They were s.E:Jen by Mrs. Mari­lyn Horser and five other peo ple. She said she gazed in disbelief as the UFOs soundlessly zig-zagged over the dawn sky. The witnesses peered at the objects through b1nonoculars for nearly an hour. '' The UFO I saw through the binocu­lars was round on top, flat at the bottom with a green glow," sa id Mrs. Horser. Her husband said the one he was looking at looked as if it had flames coming out of the top of it and cascading over the side. But strange things were happening on the ground too. Big white tow:-. era of cloud appeared by the CEC tower. They hadn't been there when they first saw the UFOs. One cloud went straight up in the sky just like a ruler with a round blob on the top. It was quite white but after ten minutes the cloud just

disappeared. Mrs . Horser sat4 the col­ora or the UFOs had been predominantl r red and green • • � but just ra int. '' (Nelson Daily News, Jan. 6, 1968)

REO TANGUIAR UFO SEEN BY FARMER Ronald Hale who farms about seven mi les southeast or Gilbert Plains, Man., said while he and his tamily were driving to to wn at 6:5 5 p.m., Ma rch 2nd, they saw the mysterious object. He immediately stopped his car to bette r observe a huge re.ctangular object seve%'­al hundred feet above the ground a few miles west of where the car was parked. Mr. Hale described the tlr,ing o bject as ''much bigger than a DO 8 1 and about three stories high with no windows ob­servable. It was emitting black smo ke. By this time, two other cars had parked nearby to wa t c h . A ll motorists shut off their moto rs to hear if the object was making any noise but could hear none. After manoeuvring about· a bit, the o b­ject too k off at a 45-degree angle, about the speed or a jet. One car tra iled the object and noticed it had a tail and was emitting a red streak. Mr. Hale said so me friends of his going from Brandon to Gilbe rt Plains on Hwy. 10 spotted the flying object at Moon Lake, about 30 miles south of Dauphin. (Winnipeg Free Preas, Man., Mar.5, 1968)

FLEET OF UFOs SPOTTED OVER HOSPITAL Around 9:45 p.m a small fleet or " some­things" appeared in the sky just south of Milton D istrict Ho spital on Sunday , March 3, 1968. Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Pettigrew were tra­velling along No. lO sideroad near Hwy . 2 5 when Mrs. Pettigrew observed two off-white lights behind the hospital. They were of similar height and statio n­ary. As they pulled to the side of the road to watch, a third light a�proached the two briefly fro m the east. It hovered for only a moment before the original two disappeared out of sight in a southerly direction. The third went back towards the east. (The Champio n, Milton, Ont. Ma r. 6, 1968 )

KITCHENER MAN PHOTOGRAPHS UFOs An uniQentified man photographed 6 times lights in a peculiar formation high over his house about Mar.2nd. The UFOs moved in all four directions for about 30 min­utes before disappearing from sight.

Thi s inc i�ent happened in Thoap son , Manitoba , betwe�n June 15-30th o r 1967 . It occ urr�d a t 6:0 0 p.m. and wa s seen for only three o r tour minutes by Mr. and Mr s . D.F. LeMa rquands , three or their chi ldren , four ne i ghbors and two other children .

Mrs. LeMarquands had just entered the house when she heard a beeping no ise at abo ut one sec o nd interva ls . Looking out the wi ndow , she saw dirt and debris moving ra pidly aro und the ho use in a c ircula r pattern. Upon going outside, she saw her husband who had just dri­ven into the yard. He and the five children were staring up into the sky. At first only dust and dirt, moving in a vo r­tex could be seen, but then Mrs. LeMarquands was able to see the object causing the distur­bance. She described the o bject as being

1 Jl large and shaped much like a pack o f cigarettes 1� 1 although she later commented that it might � have been cube-shaped. It was revo lving co unter-

clo ckwise and appeared to have alternating shiny al­uminum and then black sides as it mo ved. It had no

apparent o penings o r lights, and it was now dead silent. �-­�/ � As sh� watched the object, Mrs. LeMarquands was distract­

ad by a s·cuffling sound an1 she lo oked to the ground to see a 13-year-o ld boy fro m across t he street pinni ng do wn

her 8-year-old daughter. At this time the o bject started mo ving o ff at a 45-degree angle, levelled off, ho vered, and then left o n a level course to wards the so utheast.

Mrs. LeMarquands attention was then drawn to ward the children, all of whom were visibly shaken, except her 8-year-o ld daugh­ter . The whirlwind had stopped and the little girl was no w

standing by herself. The o ther children were eventually suffi ci ently calm in order to say that their 8-year-old play�ate had risen into the a i r to ­wards the slowly revo lving object. The 13-year-o ld bo y had gra bbed her when she was about three feet o ff the ground. The children reported that the little girl's skirt, blouse, and hair had ridden straight up he r body when she was risin g. When asked if she could remember anything, the girl replied that she could remember nothing from the instant the wind started until she stoo d up. Mrs. LeMarquands further repo rted that all the debris that had been blo wn up had been dro pped i n a r,ard acro ss the street as the object mo ved o ff. She also stated that the ' wind" had revo lved around their home only, with­out touching neither o f the neighbo ring homes no r the grass o utside the ••circle". ''It was almo st as tho ugh a huge �lass co ntainer had been placed over them, the area invo lved was so exact, Mrs. LeMarquand reported. ( Credit : CAPRO, P.O. Box 1316, Winnipeg 1, Man. Credit: L .

THIS UFO IS DIFFERENT! - Fred Fassmore was out pruning fruit trees on h1s sm�ll rarm two miles west of Dundas, Ont., when he saw a UFO . It was orange in the center and black toward the edges. It was the shape of a box kite but "it wasn't as square as you would expect a box kite to be." It fits no description of any known aircraft he has ever see.n or heard about. His qua­lifications as an observer are impressive, serving with the RCAF and 12 years in the RCAF counter-intelligence. '' • • • it was nothing that exists, as far as I know, in our arsenal, 11 he said. He had special occasion to look up at the sky that day of April 7 as his two sons were on a flight as part of their a tr cadet training. The object appeared to be beneath the plane. "At first it looked as though it was hanging beneath the plane,'' Passmore said. The UFO was about 60-degrees from the horizo·n and continued in a westerly direct·ion and took about 3 or 4 secon.1s to pass from view completely. The object was at about 20,00 0 feet but left no condensation trail. The sky was clear, sun shining and viewing conditions were excellent. The object was five or six-sided, with two sides quite long, giving it an almost cof­fin shape, with a point at the head. (Hamilton Spectator, April 8, 1968)

FLYING SAUCER LANDS ON GEORGIAN BAY - An Espanola, Ont., woman and her fam­ily were vacationing in Parry Sound at a cottage and had been watching the eclipse of the moon when they looked out into the bay and noticed what they

I first thought to be a fire. 11It was a fiery glow at first and it seemed to be moving. It came closer and we noticed it was a c�ft of some type with red, yellow and green lights. We watched it for about an hour until it sped across the channel and up into the· sky," sa id the woman. The craft appeared about three inches long in perspective and remained out­side the 5-mile buoy in the bay. "It moved back and forth verr, quickly. It seemed to us that the thing was moving with a circular motion, 1 she ad�ed. (Elliot Lake Standard, Ont., April 1·9, 1968)

MYSTERIOUS LIGHT HOVERS OVER FARM - A hovering light attracted the atten­tion of three Medicine Hat men about 8:40 p.m. on April 18th. Nick Didack, his father Mike, and brother-in-law Adolph Leis saw the strange phenomenon high above a farm near Pashley from the Deering farm located seven miles south of Pashley. Mr. Didack said the three heard a loud, eerie sound some­what similar to the noise made by a jet and, scanning the sky, observed a bril­liant white light overhead. The light at times was so intense it appeared to illuminate the whole sky and noted the source of light seemed to be revolving as intensity waxed and waned . The light remained stationary tor about four min­utes before drifting oft to the north and later toward the east. The object was visible to the men for about ten minutes.

MYSTERY AT CHARLESWOOD On Sunday night, Oct. 22 and Monday a.m. Oct. 23, the HCAF, ROMP and others were trying to determine what more than 17 persons repo rted over the Westdale area at that time. The UFO was first sighted at about 6:4 5 p.m. A Westdale woman saw it hover­ing over a house across the street. Another Westdale homeowner and his wife saw the lights which were now a red color. They moved at great speed and changed shape and seemed to form a figure 7. Two streets over, a salesman and a saleswoman were readying to clo se up their office in a new subdivision of several hundred new houses, some with only the basements dug out so far. Across from five show homes is a vac­ant ploughed field. To the west of one of the houses is a triangular field separated from the houses by a street and a drainage ditch. This was the field where their sighting took place.

The salesman was returning from one of the houses when he noticed direct­ly ahead in the field about two hund­red and fifty yards away, two small purplish-red lights tilted at an ang­le of 45 degrees. The distance be-tween them was a bout 15 0 feet • The A Woman's Narrow Print? ;· first light was stationary and appear-ed to be suspended in the air about the height of a telephone pole above the field. The light on the right seemed to be stationary on or slightly above the ground. The man walked closer and then saw a third light, a lit­tle brighter that appeared on the surface of the field between the first two. There was no sound. The saleslady joined him on the front lawn. The lights then blossomed to a diameter of 2 or 3 feet and began to pulsate, brighten and dim at 2 or 3 second intervals, but not in sequence with each other. The lights started moving again, at times converging on the couple and then retreating to their original positions in the air. The salesman remembered he had binoculars in the car and went to get them when a car approached. He flagged them down and two men, two women and two small girls got out of the car and stood watching the pulsating lights. Just then, a fifth light dropped down through the clouds. It hung under the clouds, straight above them, casting a rosy glow on the clouds above it. The other lights started to drift about lOO feet northward. Just then air­planes were heard over Charleswood. One plane passed overhead. Finally, the liShts changed places into a geometrically perfect triangle being led by the first light, dipping and bobbing over the highway. They reached a hydro line, broke off formation into a single line, the wires lighting up as they sped over them. Later they hovered over a TV broadcasting tower and then took off into the northwest. The next morning the salesman and a foreman went looking for evidence in the field. A small pile of stones in a circular heap and surrounded by many

C HARLESWOOD MYSTERY - C on 't. sma ll footpr int s leading to and from the p i le o f s tone s . A few yard s away we re 3 areas a bout 30 to 4o feet apart where the footprlnts were concentra ­-ted in a c ircle of about 2 yard s . It wa s as t hough they were all crowd ing to get into or onto a ladder of their flying machines . From the three tra mpled area s , sets of footprint s i n straight l ines ra d iated ou t for a dis ­tance o f 6 0 or 70 yard s a lways in pair s . A t lea st 8 c reatures were involved. The pr int s were about 7 inche s long and abou t 2f'• wide but t he oddest thing wa s that t hey all walked the same . The heel s pre s sed deeper t han t he toes . It appeared that no ankle movement wa s pre sent . Where t he so i l was wetter , the print s came to a point at the toe s . The heel s left a ro unded depre s s ion with a cuban heel impres sion. The foreman e xper ienced a sudden hea da che when he first bent over the pile o f stones . The e stimated weight o f the creatures wou ld be about 40 t o 50 pound s each . Before the salesman went to sleep that night his race and hand s became hot a s i f by windburn or s unburn . The next day his leg s a ched and in the evening h i s car took a long time to start and rema ined tha t way for 3 week s , the condi tion event ua lly disappearing . A hot feeling came into h i s thi� for abou t a month, t urning into a cool feeling in January. He purcha sed a com­pas s to c heck for magnetism and fo und tha t everything in the UFO location wa s highly magnet i zed , espec ially t he steel flag pole o f the s how home. H18 car al so wa s magneti zed . The c ur i o u s t hing wa s that everything wa s magnet­i zed on the side fa c ing the 5 object s . He found tha t h i s non-magnet i c wat ch and a nai l file were a l so affected . On Dec . 10 the man looked at hi s tongue in the mirror and wa s horr i fied to see it a yellow-greeni·sb oolor . He da shed to the doc tor for teats. The blood showed a significant drop in wh ite blood cell count . Both he a nd the sa le s lady were very dry a fter the s ight ing . He lo st h i s sense of ta ste or so it seemed . Everything he a te ta sted the same and there wa s a ta ste of copper or metal in h i s mouth . The doctor sa id the tongue coat ing· wa s ca u sed by dehydrat ion. T.he ROAF tried to say the object s seen were 4 Otter aircraft but t his i s not log ical beca u se the planes would have been over Charleawood and out of sight within minutes .

ANYONE WHO PLANS to mess around with fly. ing. saucers should read Mike Campione'� .

Mike is the lead ing UFO legist in Cinnaminson, N. J. A UFOlogist is a student of UFOs, which means Un· identified Flying· Objects , which means Flying Saucers.

Mike is � president of the Amalgamated Flying Saucer Clubs of America. He spends a lot of time lee· turing on the subject. I don't know where he gets all his information, but he knows things about UFOs I never read anxwhere else.

His lectures to audiences of Elementary through College levels , members of Church, Fraternar, Service , P.T.A. and Business groups, acclaim him with standing ovations. His "down-to-earth," en­lighfen ing , entertaining and provoc ative presentation is considered TOPS. His penetrating research reveals hitherto hidden factors , astounding im­plications, to laymen and scientists .
