FLYING SPHERES ARE SEEN IN ADIRONDACKAIR; WHAT ARE THEY?Flying balls—barrels—spheres—or ,just plain orbs. The North Country ?I seems to be a prime target for them.;I What the nerve-jangling objects that i swish thru the sky really are no one | up this way knows. j! But many hardy pioneers of the ! Adirondack mountains and the Ca- j nadian border will huff indignation ■ to anyone who tries to discount them, j Several have seen them, and they | know they are something. Appar- j I ently the North Country is not the only locale of such thinking, too, for i from Ohio and Indiana also have come reports of the strange objects swishing across the October skies. | The mystery of the flying orbs was I given impetus recently, when two Malone area residents and one Lake Placid man again sighted the strange objects.In the face of it all, the Civil j Aeronautics Authority, the Royal Ca-; nadian Air Force, or the U. S. Air ; Force, have denied any knowledge of them. |The USAF has stuck its tongue j in cheek and muttered “fantastic.” i The latest reported sighting of the ‘ flying ball came from Stan Ayers, a | Lake Placid business man, who said he saw a “silver or aluminum” col- i ored object roaring around Lake1 Titus, near Malone, last week. His report placed the ball at 5,000 feet J,*and roaring like a jet plane. jThe second Sunday report came! from George H. Clark ofMalone and Joseph Garby of Duane, who said their wives saw the ball, estimated *gtt five feet in diameter, traveling at i the speed of an airplane, between St. J Regis Falls and Santa Clara. jSt. Regis Indian Reservation residents at,Hogansburg gave the initial report of a motor-driven flying jball on October 2 when the ball landed and took off in a field near Hogans-burg. !l
