SPACE REVIEW
TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE LES.B.—
GREETINGS FROM ENGLAND
Capt. Edgar L. Plunkett, British Representative
Are we on the verge of a breath-taking discovery? Yes, i believe we really are! To
quote Captain Eddie Rickenbacker, ‘Too many good men have seen Flying Saucers for
us to dismiss them lightly as hallucinations.”
The nineteenth and twentieth centuries have produced a number of astonishing dis-
overies notably the dreaded atom bomb, and also has had to discard in many cases pre-
vusly held convictions such as that ‘matter is indestructible”’.
Even the average layman today, due to increased educational facilities, and access to
rature of all lands, has a very good idea that \ife in all its forms consists of ‘energy’,
ind that this energy somehow links back to sonw form of pulsating orbital structure like
unto the universe, but on an infinitesimally smaller scale. Therefore, it is—to me at least—
quite believable that it ts possible that somewhere -something—someone—has solved the
idle of this energy, etheric, electromagnetic, «all it what you will. Having progressed
r, it follows that given elements capable of withstanding immense stresses and strains,
propulsion of what has become known as the ‘Flying Saucer’ becomes a possibility.
known that between the Sun, Moon, and owr Earth, and presumably between other
r-planetary and possibly int terstellar bodies there exists magnetic lines of force, thus
some form of aircraft or saucer has control ef the means or attraction and repulsion,
these lines of force which by the way never touch one another, would form the perfect
highway along which to travel at the speed of tight, | and probably very much faster. It
would also account for the capability of these so-called “‘saucers’’ to accomplish right- —
urns, inasmuch that these known magnetic waves emanate in all directions. Therefore
point of view of the average thinking man in the street, I say, “I believe the
flying saucer does exist, ue that the coming years will vindicate oa men as Captain
Ma antell, Kenneth Arnold, and countless other pioneers in this field.” In conclusion, may
I say to all IFSB freee sede at home and abroad, ‘carry on the.good work, and above all,
io not be disappointed, discouraged or deluded by the jeers and sneers of the ignorant
so-called majority.
The best of everything for the New Year ahead!
Yours fraternally, E. L. PLUNKETT
MYSTERIOUS CRAFT OUT THERE
by Gail Sprague
Out of the dark, mysterious, depths by Victor Root
space,
Came strange looking craft at a trem
dous pace Out there, beyond the clouds;
course was true, the third planet Where winds have not yet blown,
Out in space lies my destiny,
from the sun, : Where man has not yet gone
it orders: Don’t return until your task
is done
they descended; some got out
back in 24 hours,” the commander
told the scout. Out there, among the stars;
That's where I long to roam
Out in space lies my destiny
Time went fast, all returned. Where night is forever ruling,
Off went the craft, bearing all they'd Where solitude is soothing
learned. “ta ‘a

decision was reached, never again,
) this small planet they'd ever land
ruy a n, prejudice and greed,
worst of all planets, al To
Out t
ng to roam.
