1952 Humanoid Reports. The year of the
Washington DC overflights. The first year that a well-documented UFO flap was
reported, mostly in the USA. Memorable incidents were reported again mostly in
the United States. Following is the list of known humanoid encounters for the
year 1952.
Flatwoods West Virginia. The Adamski “Scoutship”
1.
Location. Edwards AFB California
Date: 1952
Time: unknown
A “reliable” person in a technical
position was on radar duty when he saw a UFO descending rapidly across his
radar screen. When it was confirmed that the UFO was down the captain on duty
told him that he hadn’t seen anything. Later the radar operator learned that an
object had crashed in the desert. It was more than fifty feet in diameter with
a row of portholes around the center. It was also said that it contained a crew
who were approximately four and a half feet tall. The ship, the debris, and the
bodies were shipped to Wright-Patterson AFB.

Additional information on this case:
According to researcher William Hamilton
III a man named “Frenchie” was stationed at Edwards AFB when he was called out
of his barracks along with others because something had crashed just south of
the air base. When he got to the site, he was not allowed to get any closer
than an outer established security perimeter, but could see men lifting up
large chunks of metal. Sheets of metal were all over the crash site, but no
engine or fuselage was visible. Frenchie said they had to cut out a piece of a
C-47 to enlarge its door to fit a large piece of the retrieved material into
the plane for transport. The large piece was lightweight and was lifted by two
men. A lot of the debris from this crash was supposedly transported to the Air
material Command at Wright Field, Ohio (now Wright Patterson AFB). The
engineering division at Wright Field called T-3 had already concluded that the
UFOs were advanced aircraft or spacecraft, which used non-conventional methods
of propulsion and were constructed from composite layers of lightweight
material. It was the opinion of the General staff that the unidentified objects
were interplanetary spacecraft.

The witness had been skidding with a
horse when he saw a domed disc shaped object with windows land on some brush
nearby on three metallic legs. A strong rush of wind accompanied the object. A
long ramp descended from the object and three men wearing shiny silvery
coveralls emerged. The men looked very human and spoke in an unknown language
and took interest on the witness horse, which acted frightened during the
encounter.

Location. Near Castlemartin Dyfed Wales
Date: 1952
Time: around noon
Mr. Nellie Thomas was taking an after
lunch stroll among the sand dunes encountered a shiny metallic object partially
concealed among the dunes. He went nearer to investigate and saw several men
standing on top of the now discernible disc shaped object, one of the men who
was apparently the leader or captain told him not to get any closer that he
could be injured by the strong rays emitted by the craft, since he wasn’t
wearing any protective clothing which was recharging itself with the rays of
the sun. They also told the witness that they were concerned that the earth was
on a self-destructive path. The men looked very similar to humans and told
Thomas that they had been visiting the earth for hundreds of years. They told
him the name of their planet but he could not remember.

A young couple walking near “the old
mill” suddenly heard a terrific crash with no source of origin visible. There
is sudden silence in the area. Petrified the witnesses do not dare move. Soon
they heard muffled whispers and voices coming from behind a nearby hedge in a
language that they cannot understand. The terrified witnesses remain still,
holding their breath as long as the “conversation” goes on. Then, just like the
beginning there is a terrific crash and silence. Possible ground traces were
found the next day.

Helge Nystrom, a farmer, was cleaning a
ditch on his property when he looked up and saw a cigar shaped object with
wings, land 50 meters
away. As he watched the object, a small man, about half a meter tall, came
towards him, walking along a ditch bank. The man looked like a round football
in his outfit. As the humanoid caught sight of Mr. Nystrom he ran to the
“cigar” as fast as he could. The witness then hid behind some willows. A few
seconds later there was a sharp explosion, like a blasting discharge, and when
the witness looked up both the object and the little man were gone. There were
no traces left at the site.

Date: January 1952
Time: afternoon
While employed as a rigger on this
remote island, Eldon L. White was wandering around looking for Blue Fox Burrows
on his day off, when a whirring whining sound caused him to look up. About 300 feet above him,
falling leaf-like towards the water was a gray, bat-shaped craft. It was about 30 feet across. The leading
edge of its wings was spaced with round openings emitting a greenish yellow
glow. Top center of the wing was a dome emitting a greenish yellow glow. Top
center of the wing was a dome emitting a pulsating red glow from inside.
Underneath and aft (rear) of the wing was a long rod or shaft. Around 75 feet above the water
this craft commenced hovering for a few seconds, then fell off into a steep
angled glide and disappeared beneath the water. The witness gaped and waited
quite some time for it to surface---but it never did.

After seeing a bright object hovering
over a road a family drove home to their farm to be later awakened by a bright
white light that surrounded the house. The pet dogs became very quiet. A little
man-like figure then approached the window and knocked on the glass. The father
went to the window and saw a 4
ft tall man; wearing a helmet with visor, he could see
eyes behind it. The father noticed something peculiar about the eyes, it seems
that the large black eyes were only but a cover of some sort over the actual
eyes, which moved and blinked from behind the dark lenses. It appeared that the
skin was a sort of covering or uniform as well. The family became scared and
hid under the blankets. Apparently they did not see the little man depart.

An airline pilot, Chaskov, sleeping in a
beach cottage was awakened by an explosive noise and saw a bright blue white
light outside. In the morning his grandmother, Mrs Chaskova, told him that she
had gone out to investigate this and had seen a large number of objects like
“inverted soup-plates,” lit up by an orange glow, hovering just above the
ocean. She watched them for half an hour, during which time she saw two human
figures emerge on to the top of one of the discs and remain standing there for
a while. Then they re-entered, and the vessels took off, one after the other,
at tremendous speed.

Time: 1630
Driving northwards to Lima on the Pan
American Highway, “C.A.V.” saw near Lomo De Ballena a grayish, shining metallic
disc hovering a few feet over the desert; he stopped and ran toward it. An
opening appeared and there emerged 3 “mummy like” beings about 5 feet tall, with joined
legs and a single large foot. They had no faces, only a sort of transparent
jelly with a bubble in the middle. They wore no clothing, but had a
“towel-like” skin. They asked, in English, whether they were in North America;
on being told that it was South America, the voice switched to Spanish. They
asked C.A.V. to “take them to his chief,” and said they came from another star
and concerned about atomic energy dangers. They said they were asexual and
reproduced by fission; during the conversation, one actually did so. They
invited him into the craft, which was transparent and contained no machinery,
and took him on a flight down the coast. C.A.V. repeated the story under
hypnosis.

Time: late night
The witness who was staying at an
isolated stone building near the main house was awakened in the middle of the
night by the sounds of her dogs growling. She went out to investigate followed
by the dogs. Near another smaller stone building she came upon three giant
human like figures and a smaller normal looking human. The human spoke perfect
French and communicated with the witness, acting as a translator. The giant
humanoids were well-built and dark complexioned, somewhat resembling “Hindus”
one appeared older and seemed to be the leader. He had a half marble on his
forehead and wore around his neck a strap holding a box with buttons. The
“normal” human claimed that the aliens originally took him years ago when he
had an encounter. The older giant explained that they had originally introduced
the first human colony on earth, but as a penal colony. Later they showed her
their craft that had been hidden nearby. It was huge and shaped like a straw
hat, and hovered silently just above the ground. The witness was given various
demonstrations of their ability to levitate and dematerialize objects. Before
leaving the giants told the witness that they had come to take vegetation and
mineral samples in order to evaluate the consequences of atomic explosions. The
witness claimed numerous psychic experiences after the encounter.

According to various sources, a large
craft of several hundred feet diameter crash-landed in the area, clipping the
top of a hillside and leaving a gouge in the valley floor before coming to
rest. Apparently some undescribed humanoids survived the crash and are holed up
in the area, where there have been numerous sightings of entities on the

An object with many lights flew parallel
to the female witness vehicle for several minutes. Then the car came to a
gradual halt on the side of the road. The witness then found herself inside the
craft not remembering how she got there. She was then thoroughly examined by
smallish gray creatures with large eyes. Something was inserted into or behind
her ear. She was not afraid and saw “things on the walls, which weren’t maps.”
She assumed that they were celestial charts. There was a three-hour period of
missing time.

Mrs. Ann Sohn looked out the window and
saw a luminous disc shaped object hovering over the vacant lot beside her
house. Along its side ran a row of square windows, and on top was a transparent
dome; beneath it was a cloud of green glowing vapor. The body of the craft was
white luminous, the windows dark, except for the last 3, inside which was a
very intense white light. In each of these windows a man was visible, 2 facing
Mrs Sohn and the 3rd in profile. They were wearing parka like coveralls with
hoods or headpieces. She watched for 3-5 minutes, then the men were seen to
move levers; the ship became a brilliant red orange, and then departed at
fantastic speed.

Orfeo Angelucci was driving home from
work when he began experiencing a tingling sensation. A luminous disc appeared
ahead of him, then shot away, leaving behind two glowing spheres in front of
his car. A pleasant voice called him from his vehicle and then he saw a man and
a woman of noble appearance materialize before him as if on a screen. They gave
him a goblet and he drank from it, it relieved his unpleasant sensations. After
a short conversation the beings promised to return and disappeared.

The anonymous witness’s headlights
illuminated a silvery, “cloud-like” egg shaped object about 8 ft wide and 4 ft thick, some 12 ft above the ground. It
sank to the ground and a 3-foot being emerged, which the witness at first took
for a child. He got out of his car and confronted, a few feet away, a being
with light green complexion and silvery clothing, who asked him telepathically
for help in “putting their ship aloft.” Witness asked for “a formula for steel
that would not rust” and was given “a formula for regular rim steel, but
including the word ‘Unimic’ The being gave his name as “Tamarak” and said he
was from “the eighth or tenth planet from your source of energy.” The witness
was ordered back into the car, and the UFO took off, out of sight in seconds.

A man named Ivan Sergeevich K, a young
boy at the time was spending the night at a Gypsy encampment when suddenly a
strong wind arose, which frightened the horses causing them to scatter into
different directions, their owners rushing after them. Ivan was left alone
sitting around the bonfire, accompanied by an elderly Gypsy woman. Suddenly
there was a bright flash of light from the nearby glade in the forest. The
light was compact in nature and it rose above the ground, like a dome. Three
strange entities then walked out of the light, they were human-like but with
huge featureless heads. Maybe they were wearing some type of helmet with a
transparent frontal section, but the witness could not be sure. The humanoids
wore tight-fitting outfits. One of the humanoids was above 2 meters in height, the
second shorter and the third also shorter, about 1m70cm in height. The
humanoids approached the fire and sat around it, exchanging words among
themselves using strange hissing sounds. The aged Gypsy woman watched the
aliens and took out a clump of “dust” from her knapsack and threw it into the
fire. The fire then began to crack loudly. One alien attempted to approach the
fire but the woman threw more dust into causing the fire to sparkle loudly, surprisingly
this seemed to frighten the humanoids. During the next 15 minutes the humanoids
and both witnesses sat across each other by the bonfire, staring at each other
through the fire. Finally, the entities walked back to the lighted dome and
soon the strong wind rose again, this time obviously emanating from the dome.
Soon a lighted globe-shaped object zoomed up from the meadow and vanished.

Walking home from a movie, Carl Haynes
heard “weird music and singing,” which proved to come from “the brightest
lights you ever saw” down on the far side of the creek bank. Approaching to
within 75 yards ,
he could see four or five little men dancing and singing around a shiny
aluminum like object with open door, from which the music came. It looked like
“2 saucers stuck together,” with a central dome around which rotated very
brilliant multicolored lights; in their hands they held something resembling
guns. Within 10 minutes they stopped singing, and began putting things in the
“space ship.” He thought they had detected his presence, and “would have done
something about him” but for the creek between. They went back in, the door
closed, and the UFO took off “straight up in a kind of corkscrew motion,” with
a whistling sound, becoming brighter as it took off. The whole episode took
nearly an hour. When Haynes revisited the spot, he found 4 impressions of
balls, and a deep sunk spike mark in the middle. Also, there were many narrow
“heel-less” footprints in the dust. Another man (now deceased) had also seen
the lights and heard the music.

A local elderly pensioner suffering from
insomnia was spending one of his sleepless nights in his one room house when he
suddenly looked out the window and was amazed to see several humanoid figures
in the garden plot of his female neighbor. The strange figures were tall and
amazingly appeared to be “horned”. The frightened man switched off the light
and hid in the house. In the morning it was noted that all the apples on the
neighbor’s trees had been removed from the trees. After this incident rumors
began circulating in this town and from neighboring villages of strange horned
entities that were stealing food. Most of the reports concentrated around an
ancient fortress located in the town. The fortress is said to have underground
passageways and according to a local legend these or similar entities used to
live somewhere underground and visited the surface periodically using several
well hidden and camouflaged tunnels. There was also talk about a UFO crash in
the area in some distant past (probably deep into the water of the Black Sea)
and of Ufonauts hiding under the ancient fortress. These horned humanoids
reportedly do not appear during the daylight hours, apparently they can’t
tolerate bright sunlight (allegedly they live in humid and marshy locations in
their planet with a damp climate, or underground and their sun in their planet
is probably much dimmer that the earth’s sun). Others indicate that there is no
connection with a UFO crash since these horned entities have been reported in
the area since ancient times. Another legend says that a sanctuary to the
Egyptian God Ra was located deep below the fortress and the priests who
worshipped there wore horned caps.

The witness was walking along a desert
trail looking for interesting rocks when she noticed a ball of fire in the sky
that descended and disappeared behind a nearby mountain ridge. The witness
walked towards the direction where the light had gone down & then stopped
to pick up a sparkling rock when she noticed a small gray man walking towards
her saying “Do not be afraid” apparently using telepathy. The witness then
apparently fell asleep. She woke up later lying on an examining table in a
small room illuminated by a fuzzy light. Four little gray humanoids with large
baldheads and huge bulging black eyes were examining her with instruments. They
pulled down an apparatus with a light from the ceiling and ran it up and down
her body. A small device was apparently planted in her ear and one in her
abdomen. She was also shown a book with strange symbols and a scene with stars
in a large 3-dimensional viewing screen.

The anonymous witness attention being
directed to the sky by a woman, he saw “what looked like a daylight moon
lowering itself through the haze.” It stopped and hovered for 30 seconds, then
rose & disappeared. A few minutes later, looking from a car window, he saw
it again (now seen to be “oblong”), hovering over the Alco Company. “Then a
gondola seemed to lower from the object”, and he could see what looked like “a
bunch of Navy officers in Navy white hats,” all wearing huge dark glasses,
rushing to the windows. Red lights were flashing behind them. Then the
“gondola” was withdrawn, and the object rose. 3 round, smaller objects appeared
and entered the “dirigible” from the bottom. He mentioned it to his companions,
but when they looked out it had vanished. Each time he saw the object, he noted
“a very strong smell of ozone.”

28-year old Theo L. Smeets a local tour
pilot was exploring a jungle area when he came upon a clearing and on the
clearing encountered a hovering shiny disc-shaped object with luminous
portholes encircling a central dome. The craft hovered very close to the ground
but did not actually touch it. Three 1-meter tall humanoids stood about 10 meters from the UFO.
The humanoids had large eyes, large heads, long arms, small mouths and pointed
chins. The humanoids approached the witness and communicated with him in an
Indonesian dialect, explaining to him that they hailed from a planet called
“Homan” located in the star system called “Wolf”. Before leaving the small
humanoids collected some tree branches and other ground samples and then walked
back into the object. As the humanoids disappeared into the object there was a

Going to the river Serchio before dawn
to fish, Carlo Rossi saw hovering over it a circular object, apparently drawing
up water through a long tube. It was black, with oval openings around the edge,
and in the center a transparent tower 6 meters in diameter and extending 3 meters below the disc.
In this were 4 thin tubes attached to a central cylinder, and a bluish flame
was passing between these tubes. Under the disc were 5 equidistant propellers,
and on top 3 concentric cones. The only sound was “like silk rustling.” From a
porthole in the turret a human face looked out, and stretched out an arm toward
Rossi, who threw himself over the ridge of the bank. He saw a green ray
projected above him, and felt an electric like shock. Then he saw the UFO
depart “at frightful speed.” 2 months later, he encountered there a very thin
& tall angler with a peculiar accent, who asked him if he had ever seen any
sort of aircraft over the river, and gave him a peculiar cigarette that
immediately made him feel faint. The stranger grabbed the cigarette from him,
threw it in the river, & hastened away.

Truman Bethurum had finished his work
and decided to visit a nearby hilltop because he heard the ocean once covered
it and left deposits of seashells. When he parked his car he used a flashlight
to hunt for seashells. He had no success during an hour or so of searching, so
he returned to the truck and slept awhile. Suddenly a “mumbling around the
truck” awakened him. The mumbling was unintelligible. Bethurum looked out the
window and saw “eight to 10 small men, all about 4 feet 8 inches to 5 feet high.” They were not
dwarfs but fully developed men, said Bethurum. The strange men made no effort
to molest him. Bethurum said he was afraid to attempt a getaway. He was still
in the truck cab. One man spoke to him in a foreign tongue. Bethurum shook his
head, indicating he could not understand. Then the small man said: “You name
it.” It was perfect English, recalled Bethurum, who answered: “My God, you can
speak English, too?” “We have no trouble with any language,” replied the man.

yards away from his truck. It looked like burnished
stainless steel. Bethurum shook hands with all the “friendly” men and asked if
their captain was around. The spokesman for the group volunteered to escort
Bethurum to the captain, and led him toward the parked space ship. Meanwhile,
Bethurum looked around and saw the short men were “Latin types,” that is, with
complexions “something like Italians.” All were neatly dressed in uniforms
similar to those “worn by Greyhound bus drivers.” All had coal black hair and
dark eyes. They had beautiful skin---skin which contained no wrinkles or
blemishes. The spokesman for the group took hold of Bethurum’s right elbow.
While holding the arm gently, said Bethurum, the man seemed to “have me in his
power completely. He gave the impression of great strength.” Soon the group
arrived at the space ship. Bethurum described it as being made of some type of
metal. He learned that it measured 300 feet in diameter and was “six yards deep in
the center.” A 3-foot metal rim with beveled edges surrounded the saucer-like
ship. The rim, said Bethurum, was about 2 feet thick. The ship had no rudder or stacks.
They entered the ship through a large wide door that Bethurum estimated was 4 ½
feet wide, and about 10 to 12
feet long. It was located atop the ship close to the
metal rim around the edge. Inside he met the woman captain, Aura Rhanes. He
described her as having a “slender” Latin- type face. She wore a “radiant red
skirt, black velvet short sleeved blouse and a black beret with red trim.” He
went into her lounge and talked. The woman captain said she was from the planet
Clarion, which could not be seen from earth even with “progressive magnification,”
which Bethurum interpreted as meaning by telescope. She also said the planet
was not known by people on earth by another name---such as Mars. About Mars:
She said it was peopled and contained atmosphere, industry and homes. She said
the people on Mars did not have to have any special breathing apparatus.

circle the craft, as if inspecting it. The suit “almost looked hairy.” He
carried something like a flashlight. Monguzzi photographed him. He disappeared

Hearing a buzzing sound, Mrs Suzanne E.
Knight looked out and saw something like an airplane fuselage, dull silver in
color and with some thin white smoke coming out the rear end. On a small mast
at the front was a small red light. Through a row of large square windows could
be seen, brilliantly yellow lighted, something like cabinets with slanted tops,
and, in the front, a helmeted man looking straight ahead. No controls or
instruments were visible. Beneath the fuselage was a windowed gondola, showing
the backs of little seats. After trying in vain to get the newspaper on the
phone, she looked again; the man was gone, and so was the “observation car.”
Then the lights went out, and the object began to glow red, as if red hot, and
to rock from side to side. She called her relatives, but it was gone by the

Still working the night shift, Truman
Bethurum (involved in several encounters) was just completing repairs to
several trucks on the camp’s perimeter when he saw what looked like a meteor
streaking through the night sky, pulsing brightly from bluish-green to yellow,
orange and back again. The “meteor” fell from the sky, vanishing silently
behind the dune desert landscape about a half mile east of the site of his
initial encounter. Sure that the saucer had returned Bethurum lit out across
the desert in his own small truck, bumping and bouncing over the rough terrain,
too eager even to bother searching out a road toward his destination. He found
the ship again hovering close to the ground only a mile from busy Highway 91,
the main thoroughfare through Salt Lake City. A group of small men milled about
in front of the saucer, talking together in that same mumbling language whose
rumble had awakened him in his truck when they first met. A doorway opened and
the lady captain appeared, beckoning for him to approach with a wave of her
hand. He followed her into the ship and down the long corridor to her cabin.
The captain again gestured for him to take a seat on the curving couch, and
then sat beside him, smiling. They talked openly together, like old friends.
She explained that the nature of earthlings and of her own people was very
similar, that the people of her world were human beings, sharing the same
feeling and foibles, the same natural talents and challenges. Her people
however, had met these challenges directly, and had chosen a les destructive
course than the one presently being pursued by the people of Earth. “The things
worry you Earth people,” she told him, “in our homes you will never find. We
know nothing of illness, doctors or nurses. You have mechanics and laborers,
too. In our land they only mean trouble, so you see they are all taboo.” She
was unimpressed by Earth technology and military might as well, lamenting our
invariably destructive use of these resources. She valued Earth’s politics and
politicians no more highly, declaring, “That’s what’s cleft your world
through,” and adding. “With so many politicians, voting hardly seems
worthwhile.” After only half an hour the captain from the planet Clarion
signaled that the visit was over. As soon as Bethurum placed his feet on the
sandy ground outside the great saucer, the disc was gone, streaking away into
the night as mysteriously as it had appeared.

Barely two weeks after his second
encounter Truman Bethurum saw the “scow” ship streaking down from the sky to a
spectacular, silent landing less than 200 yards from Bethurum’s small truck. He
joined the captain again in her cabin this time armed, in anticipation of their
conversation, with a list of questions he had compiled since their last
meeting. Topping his list was the lady captain’s name. “Aura Rhanes” she told
him, then she spelled it out loud, in English, so that he could accurately
record it among the growing notes he had begun to keep of his encounters. They
spoke together of the vast desert spaces, the extreme heat, and the scarcity of
water in the arid landscape around them---to which she concluded, cryptically,
“I expect to be around for a thousand years, but the water in your deserts will
mostly be tears.” She allowed him to touch her arm and shoulder, to assure
himself of her reality that he was not dreaming. They exchanged family stories,
the tiny, seemingly youthful Captain Rhanes revealing that she was a grandmother,
with two small grandchildren back on Clarion. She told him of her journeys, “We
land on various planets in many locations. Also, we have made many landings in
different places on your Earth. Our only purpose in landing is for our own
education, and to relax a bit and replenish our atmosphere tanks, since when we
travel our scow is sealed right against outside influences.” The conversation
turned again to the social conditions found on Earth. She spoke sadly about the
continual strife her crew had observed among earthlings, concluding that,
“Other planets are much too busy improving the welfare of their inhabitants to
have time for even minor controversies.” The beautiful captain closed their
conversation with this warning:
“We figure our lives and plan our
actions far in advance, and every one of us knows how to do this. We have not
the problems you have, because we know what is right and want to do it. The
same could be true upon your Earth. God has been liberal in his blessings, and
there is no dearth. Your people’s could amalgamate and act in unison instead of
constantly warring upon each other, and then your deserts and plains could be
transformed into gardens that would be like Heaven. The substance and effort
and life spent each year on your wars would bring an abundance of water into
your deserts, if not from your polluted rivers, then from the atmosphere
itself, or from your distant oceans. These things can be done. And you’d have a
paradise in which to build your homes and rear your children and see your sons
bloom into manhood in peace, without the nagging horror and fear of bloody
death and maimed and crazed young bodies. But so far as I can see into the
future of this planet, the water in your desert will mostly be tears.”

Sonny Desvergers, a scoutmaster, driving
with 3 boy scouts after dark, noticed a light in the woods and went in to
investigate. In a clearing it became oppressively hot & humid, he smelled a
pungent smell, and he had the feeling of being watched. Looking up, he saw a
dark body above him. Backing up & shining his flashlight on it, he saw a
huge smooth gray disc, somewhat concave on the bottom, with vanes around the
edge and a dome in the middle. Then he heard a slight sound, and a small red
fireball began to drift toward him, expanding into a cloud of red mist; as this
enveloped him, he lost consciousness. On recovery he ran for the road, & encountered
the car of a deputy sheriff summoned by the boys, who had seen the red fire
strike him. His arms face, & cap showed slight burns, and his hair was
singed. At the site the grass showed scorched roots. In later accounts,
Desvergers said that he had got aboard the rim of the saucer and had fought
there with 3 humanoids in grayish clothing that had a sweaty odor.

still smiling, and slipped it into an invisible pocket. Then he backed away,

policed department from a nearby city, apparently they had found a young boy in
a state of shock wandering about their town. Immediately the family drove to
the city and realized that it was the missing boy. He was in a state of shock
and could not remember anything; he was gravely ill suffering from a number of
skin rashes and high fever. The doctors could not help him. He died soon after
the incident.

Type: G or F?
Comments: Obviously hypnotic regression
was not performed at the time and like many other cases from South America it
appears that the boy was suffering from some kind of radiation sickness.

Although no one saw the saucer land, it
apparently was downed by atmospheric problems created by the detonation of
hydrogen bombs. The object and instruments were in good shape. However
scattered on the ground outside the ship were the bodies of seven men, all
badly burned. One report claimed they were about 20 to 30 years old and about
six-feet tall.

Nello Ferrari, 41, a farmer, had gone to a
lonely spot to relieve himself when he noticed a copper colored light cast on
the grass. Looking up, he saw a gold or copper colored object like two 20 meter soup plates put
together; in the center, protruding above & below, was a 5 meter metal cylinder, in
which was something rotating, with a motor like noise. It was only 10 meters above him. The
two plates separated, and 3 human forms appeared in the interstice, dressed
apparently in rubber like overalls, with transparent masks. They spoke words
sounding like ‘Verren---firg---unch,” then they retreated and the two plates
closed with a metallic click. The hum grew louder, and the vessel ascended vertically.

“Attempting to establish a contact,”
George Adamski and 6 others drove into the desert, and were eating lunch when a
cigar shaped ship was seen hovering. This departed, but after they had driven
half a mile and got out, there appeared a saucer hovering, which he
photographed. Then he saw a man beckoning, ¼ mile away, and Adamski walked up
to him. He was wearing a one-piece brown coverall without seams, and had
shoulder length hair and a very high forehead. Adamski asked him by signs what
planet he came from; he replied by indicating the second orbit and speaking,
“Venus,” as Adamski had done. “He made me understand that their coming was
friendly,” and that, they were concerned about atomic explosions (nodding or
shaking his head in response to Adamski’s questions accompanied by mental
pictures) an extended partly telepathic conversation is recounted. The visitor
indicated his feet; his shoes left footprints containing mysterious markings.
He conducted Adamski to the saucer, but not into it, it was translucent and
hovering close to the ground. Then he returned to it, and it took off. Adamski
was apart from his companions for 1 hour, but they could watch by binoculars.

At Palomar Gardens, where Adamski had
set up his telescope, he was able to make 3 photographs of a saucer as it
approached. It came within 100
ft ; “one of the portholes was opened slightly, a hand
was extended, and the film holder which my spaceman friend had carried away on
November 20 was dropped to the ground.” When developed, it showed not the
original saucer photo, but numerous mysterious blurry signs.
