FLYING SAUCER MAYBE?-The unknown object over the building in the picture, photographed above Anacortes, moves swiftly through the sky, seemingly a part of a cloud formation. But is it?

IS IT? Coast Guardsman Frank Ryman, 27, made this picture with a Speed Graphic camera from the front porch of his Seattle, Wash., residence. It shows, says Ryan, a "white saucer" (arrow) that is neither an airplane, a cloud, nor a silver balloon. So, is it a "flapjack" or a saucer? Or maybe a bottle cap? Photo is enlarged about 20 times

Authorities are still skeptical that the mystery missiles said to has been seen in the skies over the West Coast and as far East as the Carolinas are any sort of new airplane

I.N.P. Photo by U.S. Coast Guard Is It Saucer, Sorcery, or Just Plain Sausage? Reports of "flying saucers" were laughed off by authorities until many witnesses, including reliable pilots and servicemen, said they had seen the plate-like objects whizzing overhead. Above is the picture Yeoman Frank Ryman, 27, took in the Seattle twilight when he observed what seemed to him to be a flying saucer 10,000 feet high traveling at 500 miles per hour.
