(Editor's note: The material for our SAUCER NEWS article was taken entirely from NICAP publications and bulletins, and was not furnished to us by anyone. Our brief item about NICAP in Newsletter #8 was sent in by a confidential correspondent, and we, like Keyhoe, hope that it turns out to be untrue. As for NICAP's financial situation, it is frankly a puzzle to us. According to a recent issue of Washington D.C.'s "Little Listening Post",

# THE CASE OF THE CRASHED UFO
- by Bob Barry, News Director of Radio Station WMNS, Orlean, N.Y. -

During the week of March 17th, 1958, I received some very important saucer information from one of Orlean's most respected persons, Police Chief George Finger. I know the Chief very well, as I make daily visits to the police station to pick up news-worthy material for my noon broadcast.

On March 24th, 1958, I wrote a letter to the ex-editor of the Coudersport weekly newspaper. After I failed to hear from him for over three weeks, I called him long-distance at Genoa, Ohio.

# HOW MUCH LIKE US?
- by Justin Case -

In November 1957, the magazine "This Week" (a supplement to many Sunday newspapers) contained an article called "What Will Invaders from Space Look Like?" by rocket expert Willy Ley.

Mr. Ley gave reasons why he thinks visitors from space will breathe air, eat vegetable and animal matter, will weigh not less than 40 nor more than 250 pounds, possess a skull, two eyes, two ears, and hands and feet. "They will probably bear a strong resemblance to the man next door," said Mr. Ley, so that "the chances are you wouldn't even give them a second look."
