for Roger ., a passionate
behever in unidentified flying
objects and he has been that
way Since he saw something
in the night sky
"I was in hospital at the

bad bout of hepatitis," said
Roger.
"It was at the tome there

. "Since then I've been very
m the subject and
I ve built up quite alibrary on

about UFOs."
Roger's office at ATN7
bears testimony to his interest
in the subject.
The walls are almost
papered woth photographs of
mo soghtings and drawings
and diagrams from witnesses'
descnptlons.
Hts mterest in the subject
sparked a documentary which

"Only a few years ago

been considered crazy by a

Dear Sir,
POSSIBLE U.F.O. SIGHTING - BLUE MOUNTAINS, N.S.W.
I voul d like to report the sighting of an unusual light, low in the sky,
vhich vas observed on Sunday, 29 May 1977.
My girl-friend and I, in the company of her younger brother and sister,
aged 10 and 7 respectively, were travelling back fmm the Jenolan Caves
vhen at approximately 5pm- 5.10pm (about dusk) I noticed the object, in
the distance, through the vindscreen.
Mon
A man who Is ton.
vlnted life would be
better on another planet
wan'h to buy a flying
r;auter.
Hidden
As I had to keep eyes on the vinding road ahead of me, I could only
catch fleeting glimpses of it, but my girl friend was able to keep
it under constant observation through the side-passenger windov, vhere it
could be more clearly sighted.
After severcl minutes ve lost sight of it as the road, vhich was reasonably
busy, wound around some hilly terrain.
Several minutes later vhen our viev vas no longer obscured, ve had another
look in the same general direction 1bri t and although posei bly hazardous we
vould have stopped the car on the side ot the road for a better look had ve
sighted it again.
The U.F.O. appeared to be in a West or North-vest direction, possibly in the
vicinity of Oberon but it was difficult to est i mat e its size or distance,
although it appeared to be quite large.
Itwasobserved about 5- 10 above the horizon and was not appearing to move
in any definite direction. Hovever i t did appear (unless it vas the motion of
the oar} to be constantly rising and fall i ng (fluttering).
To me, it appeared as a whitish oval shape but girl-friend (vho had a
clearer vievJ said it resembled tvo saucers clamped together and slightly
flattened at the top.
The weather conditions at the time were fine and cool to cold, vith light to
moderate vinds, cloudless skies and very good visibility.
I have been interested in the U.F.O. phenomena for many years nov, but this
would be the only oocasion on whtch I have been unable to positively identify
anything or an unusual nature that I have seen in the sky. The only explanation
I can offer ie that the U.F.O. may have been either ,_
1) Sunlight reflecting off a lenticular cloud (despite the apparently cloudless
sky) and giving the appearance of fluttering due to the motion of the car.

2) Sunlight reflecting off an aircraft and appearing not to move in any
definite direction, due to the distance involved and also appearing
to flutter due to the motion of the car.
}) A handglider with sunlight reflecting off the sail . (My girl- friend is
reasonably certain that it wasn't a handglider).
Although I am a firm believer in the existence of U.F. O.s , I feel quite
certain that this sighting, in common with the majority of others , would
most likely have a perfectly conventional P.XplanPtion. However , I feel
obliged, ae a reeponoible citizen, to report' anything of an tmueual nature
in the sky, as it could confirm many similar eightings recorded in the area.
If this sighting should warrant an investigation by your Department I would
appreciate a reply ae to whether or not the object can be identified.
I am listing below all relevant details, and am enclosing a map which
hopefully will be of some assistance to you.
Yours faithfully,

TilE topics on which
you can ha,e an argu-
rnen& are, "e know,
many and varied.
Arguments nrc particu-
larly good when held at
d!Jmer part.les, or when
leaning on the bo.r. 'l11ey
help to pass Ute time and
usually serve to ensure that
there arc no long perio<ls o!
cmbo.n'aSiilng 6llcuce.
You can yell at each
other na you rur your vle\\s
on religion, port, politic.,
(these arc all \'Cl'Y popular)
or you can sound r ort h on
tne subject of UnidcnUIJC<l
Flying Obiecl.s.
Personally l'd ral her lnlk
about UFOs than religion
or politics (not necessarily
sport though) and certainly
prefer flying saucer talk to
natter about st:u- signs and
compatibility,
This Is almost M great a
waste of t.lme as v;at.<;h!Jtg
nagby
No, UJrOs are a setious
subject, don't they
arc.
Why, alter aJI, should this
be thP- only to be
with intelligent
hfe (and e\en that Is ques
Uonable at times)?
Bicknell's
books
'I11Is Is not to say that we
should all that \le
have been occa.sionally \i.s-
1 ted by curious pcl1!0ns
from the f:u reaches of Ute
unlvcn;e, but then It's 11ot
to say that wo haven t;
either.
In short. who knows?
After all, we've already
landed men on the moon
and crude machines to
take snap& of Mars and
Venus.
It will be a while before
1\e can ZIIJ> around paying
flying \ ls1ts to the red

drives at lhe Royal Moon

Advruu:cd intelligence
may bo. watching us this
\'cry mom<'nt, certainly
thousands, perhaps mil
lions, of people think so.
Ray Stanford Is detin-
ltely one such believer.

alleged landing of an un
idcntlhed flying object near
the town of Socorro, New
;\texico, on Apri124, 1964.
Stanford Ia not, It seems,
a man prone to hysterics or
tcnsationall.sm.
lie Is not, like some UFO
frutatlcs 1 lla\'O encounter
ed, prepared to bellevc that
eery strange ldghUng

But he belie\"CS tlmt

\\1t.ncsscs, not. just
policeman Lonnie Zamora
and :UI wuwned "tourist,"
a11d that the U.S. Air :t"orcc

Stanford Is comlnclng,
that is !l you really wauL to
be convincc<l. 'Dtero aro
many who understand:.bly
just don't want to know
about the J>OOSibilit.y of
inter-galactic travellers.
Personally, despite the
efforts or Ray Slrutford, I'll
t.tay on the fence until I
have a close encowtter ot
my own.
Howe\ er, thould this
by some chance

UFO PILOT 'NOT HIDING IN BUSH' I
A Melbourne pilot, Frederich Valen-
tich, is presumed to have crashed into the
sea last weekend alter reporting a large
object hovering above him, not an aircralt.
Immediately the hunt was on lor
Unidentified Flying Objects.
In all the discussions on beings lrom
outer space, one voice that is seldom heard
is that ol the Church. But theologians are
interested in the whole principle ol UFOs,
as this article shows.
The author, Alan Gill, is church re-
porter lor The Sydney Morning Herald.
ACCORDING to a sur-
vey, recently undertaken
in Britain, more people be-
lieve in UFOs than in God. UFOs and the


centre of the neet had been bared
and the outer are 1wept In an enti
clockwl direction.

a book on hit UFO findings and

which will "rock the world.''
AND given his frock record it's
obvious nobody involved In the UFO
mysteries will want to miss a word
of it ...
sCientists are on the brink of a fliii!SillltiiiiP
dramatic breakthrough in their research
into UFOs.
Using sophisticated computers,
they are proving that many of the
eerie aerial Images captured on film
over the past 30 years were not mira-
ges, but solid metal.
In Sydney this week, experts are
minutely scrutlnising a computer-
analysed film that may prove to be a
scientific bombshell.
The foota_ge shows three elliptically
shaped obJects manoeuvring over
Ben Boyd National Park, near Eden,
on the NSW south coast.
The American computer repmt cate-
gorically that Ben Boyd's UFOs are metallic.

This problem
confronted that

the story In newspap-
ers.
. Hundreds of terrified
residents of the bush
town of Warrandyte
were reporting to pollee
and the media that
they had seen eerie
lights and Immense,
quasi-human figures at
nlght on Research Rd,
a strip of bitumen that
twisted through the
areas ancient, bro0d6

Drizzly
Several motorists
claimed that balls of
blinding light had
buzzect them and run
them off the road.
Warrandyte, we
agreed. was a must for
lnvesUgation.
We arrived on a
drear, drizzly day and
went straight to the
spot where the alleged
phenomena had
seen.
Two residents, local
journalist John Biggs
and businessman Ber-
nard Stringer, were our
guides.
It was a gloomy place.
The road was little
more t han a rough
bush track, with gums
towering on either side.
We waded through
wet grass, down to the
river. Here, John Biggs
showed us the place
where two married
students had fled,
.several days earlier,
from what they later
described to us a.s "a
white, glowing, man-
like tlgure - so tall, Its
head snapped off
branches as lt
approached"
John had hl3 own
unsettling tale. He had
driving along
Re.earch Road at
about 9 pm, three
weeks before, when his
gennan shepherd, Sit
Ung In the back, began
shrieking In obvious
terror, leaping about
the car trying to
escape.
John braked and
peered Into the dark-
ness ahead. He saw
nothlnA'- at first.
Then. Into his field of
vllon floated the thing
his dog seemed already
to have sensed.
"It wa.s a huge, pink
sphere; he told me. "lt
glowed with a light so
bright It made my head
ache.
Berserk
"It floated steadily
toward the car. I was so
scared I couldn't move.
The dog was berserk.
"The thing drifted
right up close to the
windscreen.
Its presence seemed
to bore loto my head,
like music turned up
too loud.
"Then, It
just and the
road was dark again. I
slammed the car Into
gear and got out.

About a week before
the disturbances
began. there had been
a spatt of UFO sight

Peter toward
tht tlleory that "some-
thing" just might have
landed In the bush
skirting that primitive
road. something whose
Inhabitants had made
a lel3urely study or the
frightened hun>an ants
by.
But around the town
at that time, the word
"ghosts" was heard
moro often than
"UFOs.
And a study or old

On the precise spot
where the apparitions

The U.S. Government is making a mufti-million-dollar
attempt to conceal information about the wreckage of
an immense UFO, which crashed last year into a South
American iungle.
The flaming cylinder, said to be as long as city blcx;k.c;,
smashed into dense undergrowth neru the Boliv1a-Argentma
border on 1fay 6, 1978.
The Buenos Aires Herald reported that the explosion was
so immense it was heard for hundreds of kilometres.
The Bolivian Government declared the site a military emergency zone
and denied journalists access.
On May 9, 19i8, the
Herald published a
front page story claim-
ing that experts from
NASA America's

tion - had been flown
in to the tightly-
cordoned area.

motor failures and
bizarre animal

become almost a
part of ordinary liv-
ing for many of the
locals.
According to the
cltainnan of the Bnt-
ish UFO Society, Mr
Ken P..ogers, many of
the tO\I:nsfolk are
c()mpletely blase
about The Thing.
A few are scept.l.cal
and the town 1S often
divided about exactl}
what L'5 happemng
around them.
But Mr Rogers says
there is no doubt that
something
lS going on m War-
mmster.
There are many
other areas of regular
UFO acth1ty in
Bntain, such as
Epping in Essex and
Reading in Berkshire,
but Wanninster is a
UFO highway in the
sky.
Mr Rogers believes
Jt could have some-

plam on the edge of

''It could be easy for
a craft of some
description to land

says.
.. Or maybe it's got
something to do with

tance of the place or
the tact that a mi!t-

located nearby.

FromP.ll
Dossiers are bemsr
put together at the
recently opened UFO
re::.earch centre in the
town contaimng
sightings. other
reported experiences
and photographs.
According to Mr
Rogers, the dossiers
also include ob..<;erva-
tions by local military
personnel.
In the 1960s the
town set up its own
inquiry into the
strange lights but
came to no conclu-
sions.
New moves are
afoot to comince the
local chamber of com-
merce to co-operate
the nlanJ
Tesearchers now com-
ing to the town.
Cynics say that the
periodic spasms of
UFO acthity in places
like Warminster are
spurred by press
publicity or commun-
ity when
sonaethblg

Though tlus nlaY be

''At one time we

U.F.O. Fact or Fiction
P.o. Box 10
LANE COVE NSW 2066
Dear Sir
11 Keats Avenue
RIVERWOOD
N.s.w. 2210
January 1980.
I wa most interested in watching th recent report on U.F.o.a on
your Channel 10 News.
For many years now I have been fol1owing U.F.O. reports published in
various newspapars and magazinoe. I have also r.ead many books on the
subject.
Whil I agree, alon with oth r investigators and researchers on
U.F.O. phenomena, that moat eightings cnn be explained away aa natural
phenomena, e.g., birds, m t ore, w nth r balloons, conventional aircraft,
star , planets, etc., there nre many eightinge, some rather startling,
which cannot b explained way. While som U.F.O.'e could be some type
of n tural phenomena about which w currently know little, I personally
believ that many of the unoxplnin d i8httnga ar of extrat rreetrial
v hicl a of unknown origin. I al o b li ve th t these extra rrestrial
fore a have been keeptng the earth under close surveillanc for many
yearo now, and are aleo collecting varioue ep cimena fro our planet.
Thie could qUite possibly explain the many disappearances of aircraft,
ship and peopl from the "Bermuda Triangle" and various other r gione
of our planet. How ver, I do not feol th t these aliens are generally
hostil , as if they were, and intended to conquer our world, th y
probably would have dono eo by now, once their catalogue of data had
be n gathered, our weakneeseo noted, nnd they were sure of outright
victory. This would still be difficult for them ae, although reeiotnnc
on our t would be ueel ca, we would, if w had the chance, probably
unleach vast quantities of nuclear radiation into the atmoaphero before
going under; also, the invadcre would have the enormous problem of
ubduing millions of panic-otricken p ople.
I b li ve there are aev ral reasons for visitatione. Th a could
includ :
(1) To ve us from our own eventual possible destruction, while
t tho oame time tudying uo for academic purposes.
(2) The mining of p cioue min ra.l depo its from our arth, which
y not re dily cc ooible cl ewherc in space.
To ta.bli h formal contact with us if and when th y fe 1 the
time is right.
I definitely b liev that our governm nt, in common with most ov ra ae
govornmont , nrc o many U. .0. reporto, particularly thooe
occurring over key d fence rcaa, .g. missil baoes, airforo b a s,
atomic nergy planto, oto. Our leadcro posvibly feel that if th y
confided in the popul tion about th ali n visitations, many people
would panic unn o ssarily lioving that the U.F.O.'s could bo hoetile,
as many sightinga do suggest that wo nr boing spied upon. Also, it
would be n embarr ssment for our defence loaders to admit to the
public, that in spite of a hu defence budget, they cannot control
th a craft viol our air epao Some people might sug at that
if we cannot top th s alien craft, we may also be helplese in
otopping enemy craft from our own planet fro spying upon us.
In conclusion, that is my opinion on this truly baffling phenomena and
I can only hope th t one d y th uthoritl will take uo into their
confidence and reveal to us th tru otory about the U.F.O. pn nom n
without continuing to d ceiv u :---
