New Jersey residents said they
thought' they saw flying disks
over Palisades Park ana near-by
Bergenfield Sunday night.
Skeptical scientists recalled the
mysterious "rockets'seen over Swe-
den last year. Eighty per cent of
the "ghost rocketsproved to be
meteors,and Swedish officials said
the others could be discounted as
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,
would be more conspicuous at night
and would be seen by a far greater
number of persons.
Dr.J.S.Nassau, director of the
Warner & Swasey observalory at
tha Case Institute of Techno ogy at
Cleveland, said he was inclined to
think the reports are fancies."
Capt.Tom Brownarmy air force
spokesman at Washington, said the
army was trying to run the reports
to earth.

bility that there's something to it,"
