Reference is made to memorandum to you 7
d:IE!B"'.7'dly ll, in the above-captioned matter.
At 11:55 PAL, July ll, I took a phone call fromE of the Laurel, Maryland, Police Department.
,_,__said that he hed ear.-emined the "ying disei" He said that it
had been made from a Gulf Oil sign and the top of a garbage can andhad been painted with aluminmn paint. It had been recently painted 3
because the paint ms still wet. Attached to it were a dry cell
battery, a ashlight bulb, some wires and a buzzer, He asked if
the Eureau was sending anyone out to look at it. l told him that
we were not, that we had referred the matter to the Army, and
suggested that he call them.
I- subsequently telephoned Captain_ the Duty Z
Officer at G-2, and passed on to him the information zrnished U
Sergeant Lonis.

Attached are newspaper clippings from the
Sentinel and llwaukee Joumal of July '7, 1947.
For the Bureau's information, United Press and Associated
Press telephoned me at my residence about three or four times between1:00 AJJ. and 2:30 A.l.{., Julyglka 1947- The United Press representative
informed me that Father JOSEP1, IIASZQI had stated on interviex-.1 by a
Lfilwaulcee Sentinel reporter, ohe92BILL Phonetic! that he,
Father BRASIE, was going to call the FBI concerning the contraption,
which apparently was identical with one of the flying discs recently
publicized throughout the country. The United Press representative
desired to know if we had any statement to make on the matter. I
informed him that I had no official comment, other than "No Comment."
Since I have contacted the United Press representative on
various occasions, I asked him that the actual details were , and he
stated he did not know except that the interv:'_evr of the priest reected
that a circular saw had been found with some devices attached to it.
The Associated Press called me shortly after the United
Press representative did, and on being advised that I had no comment
to make concerning the story, I asked the Associated Press representa-
tive what the actual facts were, and he informed me that as far as the
Associated Press was concerned, the facts were that a circular saw had
been found and a story had been obtained from a priest who had been
drinking quite heavily. Tnehssociated Press representative informed
me that apparently the United Press desired to get a statement from me
denying or affiming that the FBI was investigating the matter. I
informed the Associated Press representative that apparently someone
was suffering under a misinterpretation of any comment I had made, andpossibly some reporter was in an s ba6~ass;i.n5 op; on if a story hadgone out wer,,_Hq3F92e92_'3 services. __%___.__-,-_';?_"__gg___f -- /J, I ¢~/as 1-1 Egoavsn is -I .1.--i .1-'~:~-= _' I then togap cned thq-!Jni1s|ed1%'essL,repi~esentative, who .

It the objects are seen by re-

Reports of Flying Saucers
Many descriptions or move-
ments oi the ying saucers t
with the common maneuvers of
airplanes, singly or in groups.
Some or the maneuvering report-
ed, which took saucers out of sight
and back into sight again, resem-
bles what can be.seen while
watching distant airplanes.
Whether planes are guided, pl-
iotleos or jet, they all would look
the same at great distances. _
Mirages, Traveler Says.
Philadelphia, Pa. - M- Dr. Aur
Aczel, editor or a Hungarian lan-
guage newspaper, expressed belief
that the ying saucers were mi-
regeepossibly circularly distort-
ed reections ot real airplanes
many miles away. A world-wlde
traveler, Dr. Aczel said:
Years ago I have seen similar
things on the Egyptian desert and
on the Buszta Hungarian plain!.
At sea I have also seen rnirages ol
ships known to be a great dis nee
away.
In July and August, and s B-
tlmes even in June, atmosp rie
conditions are especially adapta-
hle to the creation or :r'.ir9.gee."
I that they could get a hotter look at
the disk, which appeared round and
silvery, but by the time they got out?
of the car the object had dis-]
appeared, she said. ,.
At Green Bay, Eugene Le Plant
ireported that ho and his 12 year old
lson, Duane, had seen a rapidly mov-
ilng silver hall or disk about 6:30
|p.rn. Wednesday while working in,his garden on the western edge or}
the city. Le Plant said he saw the}.
pbject silhouetted against a dark .1
cloud to the north and that he a d

Skeptical scientists recalled the

den last year. Eighty per cent of
the "ghost rockets proved to he
meteors, and Swedish officials said 1the others could be discounted asi
pure imagination.
Scientists asserted that the ob-
jects in order to be seen clearly at
10,000 feet--the level at which most
of the saucers have been reported-»
would have to be 20 feet in diameter, _
would require a large mass of metal, f ._

' A pQui:l<s of E§/bérfight Me-y Explain Disc Mystery
NEW YORK July 6- . . , IF!-Ce '
sight will explain much of what has been described about
the"-flying saucers reported
United States.
At any distance which is ciose
to.,tl_1e limit of bow tar a person
can see. _ali objects appear round
or nearly so. This lawiol sight
covers both small things seen
nearby and large ones at greatRlqllnsonn .
Regardless of shape, the ob»
ject near the limit of sight looks
round. It the thing is silhouetted
against a bright sky, as some oi
the ying saucers have been re-
ported, then it is more likely to
rev al its true shape. ~ i
E NO STRUCTURE
r the thing is seen by reflected
light, as in most cases reported,
it is almost certain to beg-ound,
and ll the reections are sunlight,
then the sizes reported are those
which would be expected from
distant lightrei'lectlons.
The one outstanding tact about
virtually all_the saucers is that
they had no structure-they
seerned merely round and at.
That description fits exactly with
the tricks that eyes play. This
trickiness varies with differences
in weather and lighting.
This writer has seen ying
saucers over Long Island Bound
near his home, not only this year
but in previous years. They were
round, bright and moving tast-
Nor _a sssrswnnv '92
But they were no mystery be-
cause they were light reflected
from the bodies of airplanes that
soon identified themselves bychaliging course and coming nearenloih to he seen distinctly.st week this writer also saw
one val flying iorm which forwhich took saucers out of ghi

rtain laws of human eye-
frorn nearlyyfall parts of the
iphotograph ot the oval object
taken by Yeoman Frank Ryman
north or Seattle, Wash. The Long
llsiand oval came closer and
turned into an airplane.
Planes at great distances tend
to took round when light is re-
ected from their sides. llany
descriptions or movements or the,
ltlying saucers tit with the com-1
rnon maneuvers of airplanes,
singly or in groups. 1
They fit also with what birds
look like, flying at a consider ble
distance. However the bird llu-
sion is not very common. me
of the maneuvering repo ted,
and back into eight again re-
sembles what can be seen while
watching distance airplanes.
SPEED MYSTERY
There is no explanation for re-
ported speeds of 1,000 or more
miles an hour. Meteors, although
they go much taster than that,
do not explain it because the
saucers mostly appear in daytime
and there are not enough day-
llight meteors. l
Ice crystals torrning little round
clouds have been suggested. But
these fail to tit in most cases be-
cause the ice crystals form at
altitudeswhich are higher than
most or the saucers reported. l
Nothing published in science or
atomic studies gives the slightest
clue to ying slucers unless the
objects are aircraft.
One scientist today said that at
least a lot oi saucers are ex-,
plained by the force of suggestion

At 10:45 a.m., July 7, 1947, I talked to SAC Johnson of the '
Milwaukee ce concerning the United Press item appearing in theWashington Post for Monday, July '2, with reference to a flying disc 533 "'1' '
or flying sauc ,allegedly reported to the Milwaukee Office by -|Reverend Josephrasky of St. Joseph's Church, Grafton, Wisconsin.
»*_ d SAG Johnson advised that the Lssociated Yress and the Tinitédd
'92 Press between the hours 1:00 and 6:00 am. todqr had made inquiry 015- -
j. him as to whether anything had been reported to the Milwaukee Office} '
He declined to comment. He stated as a matter of fact the priest had-
not made any contact with him, and he learned from the Associated Press s _ .
that the priest was intoxicated and as far as the associated Press was _'
concerned they were not releasing the stm-y because all that was involved
" was a circular saw. Mr. Johnson stated the 1-iilwaukee Sentinel apparently
sent the report out and that they handled United Press service. He stated
a photograph of the priest was in this nor-ningie pap holding a circular
saw which apparently covers the body of the priest from arm pit to arm pit.
__" '- attached to the saw are several wires and two small tubes described as
about three inches long and one inch in diameter. The news item in the
92 Milwaukee Sentinel indicates it was believed some prankster had thrown itQ into the yard, perhaps with a firecracker attached. Hr. Johnson stated the
9292_ M_ 'Ei
---an

A .
Milwaukee Sentinel had stated the priest would make a report of this matter
_ _ today to the lilwaukee Office. I instructed SAC Johnson in the event the .1
1 priest made a report to furnish details of the report immediately, but in -
si oi the natws of the infwsation in his possession, no inqui.r;; should
be conducted at the present.

Have you seen one or the mysterious 'Sauoers'?
What did it look like? _ _

Do you believe it means that a new and revolutionary
advance is coming? _
Will it make Your lite brighter, happier, more
0
useful? .
We believe one of these startling discs is on its
way to you. Then the secret will be out.

Er. WENYCN was quoted as having called the Federal Bureeh of Investigation
and was advised that the Bureau was not interested, whereupon he notified
the Eastern Airlines and the Civil Aeronautic Authority of the objects
he had seen. Both agencies are reported to have accepted the information
stating they would investigate. The clipping further stated that Mr.
WENYON had received no answer to date from either agency.
This clipping was submitted to me by the resident agents office at -
Wilmington together with the advice that no agent in Wilmington had been
contacted by nr. WENYON. I directed hr. WENYOH be interviewed to detenmine
the full facts. '
Er. WENYUN was interviewed and it was determined that his correct name-is
HORACE E;_EEN!0N. rr. WENYON advised that he had been an airplane pilot
approximately thirty years. He stated that in September of l9h6, while flyi
at an altitude of 1,000 feet, two or three miles south of Rehoboth Beach,
Delaware, he noticed a projectile approxhnately fifteen inches in diameter
which crossed his course at right angles and was moving in a westto-east
direction. According to ur. WENYON, several jets of flame were sporting
from the object and it was traveling at a very high rate of speed, 1,000
to l,2t0 miles per hour. He stated that in October of 19b6, he observed a
similar projectile while flying over Rehoboth Beach at l,h00 feet,_iThiswas also traveling from west to east. -_;;;-»-~" "' '
Hr. Wanton stated that there is little question in his mind but that that
he saw was some sort of rocket being tested. He stated that he wished to
call the matter to the attention of the appropriate authority inasmuch as
he thought that the series of airplane crashes that have occurred recently
might in part be explained by what he had observed. He stated that he had
reported the information to the Civil Aeronautics Authority and had been
telephonically interviewed by_apeporter from the Wilmington "Morning News".92.~$*ve" m~.1o~w " -- . J- 7-'-_ /00{ES 1!:-".-vrzvovrn QWM 0 3, . e-_-. 1? _

Miscellaneous
Mr. WENYON stated that what he had seen traveled at such e high rate
of speed that it was very difficult to describe it, but the description
"flying mayonnaise jars" was concocted by the newspaper reporter.
This infonnation has not been brought to the attention of any Army
sources in view of the fact that only a preliminary inquiqy was con-
ducted on the basis of a news article which sets forth essentially H
the facts obtained from Mr. HENYON.
No further action in this matter is contemplated by this office unless
advised otherwise by the Bureau.

was purely by accident that they had seen the objects and that they would not have
seen them unless they were looking for them, because of the speed at which they _ '

of the objects or the height at which they flew. . .

i - There is transmitted herewith for the information of the Bureau é YE.
n report received from Lieutenent A-2, Hamilton Fie d,
California, containing the results of an investigation by his office concerning
the reported sighting of flying discs,
. ' In addition to containing the detailed descriptions of what was
allegedly seen by several persons, the Bureau's attention is particularly celled
to the first memorandum setting forth the notes of Agent CIC,Fourth Air Force, concerning an interview he had with Mr._ Box é
387, Boise} Idaho, who reported that on July 12, 194'? he had seanmine strange
objects flying over the Cascade Mountain Range of Washington State. It will be
noted that CIC Agent -reports thet"Llr._is very outspoken and somewhat
bitter in his opinions of the leaders of the United States Ar-my Air Forces and the
FBI for not having made an investigation of this matter sooner."
The thought has occurred to me that the Bureau might desire to havean agent of the Butte Office contact Mr--end explain to him our lack ofiiya
jurisdiction in such matters. _ '

Q.

n.Mk! 92j gr es»
The following story of what I observed over the Cascade mountains,
as impossible as it may seem, is positively true. I never asked nor wanted
any notoriety for just accidontly heinr in the right snot at the right time
to observe what I did. I reported snmothin: that I Vnow any pilot would
have reported. I don't think that in any way my observation was due to any
sensivity of eye sight or judgment than what is considered normal for any ot.On June 24th, Tuesday, 194?, I he-d finished my work for the
=at Chehalis, *f§ashin,qton, and at about two o'clock Iiook off from ,
Chehalis, Ynshington, airport with the intention of going to Yakima, Wash.
y trip was delayed for an hour to search for a large marine transport that
supposedly went down near or around the southwest side of Ht. Rainier in the
state of Uashington and to date has never been found.
I Flew directly toward Kt. Rainier after reaching an altitude of about
9,500 feet, which is the approximate elevation of the hiah plateau from which
t. Feinier rises. I had mode one sweep of this high plateau to the westward,
searchinj all of the various ridges for this marine ship and flew to the nest
down and near the ridge side of the canyon where Ashford, Washington, is located.
Unable to see nnything that looked like the lost ship, I made a 360 degree
turn to the rijht and above the little city of Nineral, starting again toward
Ht. Rainier. I climbed back up to an altitude of approximately 9,200 feet.
The air was so smooth that day that it was a real pleasure flying and,
as most pilots do when the air is smooth and they are flying at a higher
altitude, I trimmed out ny airplane in the direction of Yakima, Washington,
which was almost directly east of my position and simply sat in my plane ob-
serving the sky and the terrain.
There was a DC-4 to the left and to the rear of me approximately
fifteen miles distance, and I should judge, at 14,000 foot elevation.
The sky end air was as clear as crystal. I hadn't flown more than
two or three minutes on my course when a bright flash reflected on my
airplane. It startled me as I thought I was too close to some other air-
craft. I looked every place in the sky and couldn't find where the reflec-
tion had come from until I looked io the left end the north of Pt. Rainier ,
where I observed a chain of nine peculiar looking aircraft flyinr from north
to south at approximately 9,500 feet elevation and going, seemingly, in a
definite direction of about 170 degrees.
They were appronchine t. Rainier very rapidly,
they were jet planes. Anyhow, I discovered that this
tion had come from, as two or three of them every few
change their courso slightly, just enouth for the sun
angle that reflected brightly on my plans.
Tlosa objects being quite far awe ,'I was unable for a few seconds to
make out their shape or their forration. Very shortly they approached Ht.
Rainier, and I observed their outline against the snow quite plainly.

noinis I could clock them by; the air was so _cl:ar thoi it was vor? easy to see objects and determine their approximate /,
shape and sign rt almost fifty miles that day.
I rP"eh»r distinctly that my swoon second hand on my eight day clock,

diagonal chain-like lino as if they were linked
hold a definite direction but rather swerved in
peaks. Their speed at the time did not impress me rnrticularly, because I
knew that our army and air forces had planes that wont very fast.
What kept bothering no as I notched them flip and flash in the sun
right along their path was the frct thrt I couldn't make out any tail on
them, and I em sure that any pilot would justify more than a second look at
such a plane.
I observed them quite nloinlv, and I estimate mv distance from them,
which
I knew they must be very large to observe their shape at that distance, even
on as clear a dny as it was that Tucsdcy. 1n fact 1 compared a zeus fastener
or oowlirg tool I had in my rocket vith - holding it up on them and
holding it up on the DC4 - that I could observe at quite a distance to my
left, nnd they seemed smnller than the DC-4; but, I should judge their span
would have been as wide as the furtkercst engines on ouch side of the
fuselage of the DC-4.
The wore I observed three objects, the wore upset 1 became,
accustomed and familiar nith most all objects flying whether I am
the ground or at higher altiiudes. I observed the chain of these
p"ssing another high snow-covzred ridge in between Ft. Rainier and Ht. Adams,
and as thv first cno was passing tn» south crest of this ridge the last
object was snterinq thr northrrn cr"st 0F the ridge.

' were several hifh nooks that "ere a little this side of them as well as
hither peohs on the other side of their pathway.
As tho lrst unit of this forvntion passed the southern most high snow-
ocverod crost of Vt. Adana, I looked at my snoop second hand and it showed
th't they had travelled the distance in one minute and forty-two seconds.
Tver at the tire this timing did not upset me as I felt confident after I

A number of news men and experts suggested that I might have been
seeing reflections or even c rirage. This I know to be absolutely false,
