ASTORIA, 2 juillet — Il y a un disque volant en ce moment au-dessus de Fort Stevens, a déclaré Mme Earl Seado, mère au foyer résidant à l'annexe de Fort Stevens, Lundi à 13 h, lorsqu'elle a appelé un bureau du journal d'Astoria.
On lui a demandé de tracer sa course. Mme Seado a dit que it was heading across Fort Stevens in a northern direction and that it had been visible for 15 minutes, even when the sun was not shining. It was dazzling bright and saucer-shaped.
Tout le monde dans l'annexe l'a vu, a-t-elle dit. On a demandé à Mme Seado d'appeller un autre des témoins, de préférence un homme, au téléphone.
Un homme est arrivé mais a dit, Je ne vous donnerai pas mon nom. Je ne veux pas qu'il m'arrive la même chose qui est arrivée au 1er homme qui a vu un disque.
L'homme a dit qu'il était un welder and had looked at the disk through the welder's goggles because it was so bright. He said that he was not certain whether the disk was reflected light or some physical object but it was blinding bright. In contrast to Mrs. Seado, the welder said that he could not make out the direction taken by the disks because the clouds were moving so fast.
The reporter receiving the two reports rushed the call to Fort Stevens and was answered by a calm, drowsy voice which reported that no official report had reached the headquarters of flying disks. Fort Stevens, he reported, was intact. He did not refer the call to the commanding officer.
A second call made to the Coast Guard, was answered by an alert man on the switchboard who reported that no disks had been reported. He stepped outside and saw none.
