Not since the 1947 first report of what came to be known as "flying saucers" had there been "such widespread reports of unidenti-fied flying objects, or UFO's, as in recent days," the New York Times said. They had ranged from a report of a flying V formation of lights in Rochester. N.Y., to press accounts of "strange creatures with weirdly shaped heads" stopping cars on Route 90 in Gulfport, Miss. Two men in Pascagoula, Miss., had said they had been taken aboard a UFO by creatures with crab-claw hands [see Oct. 12]. The Federal Aviation Administration had said that no reports of special significance had been submitted by airline pilots, and an Air Defense Command spokes-man had denied that any UFO had been detected in the last three weeks.
