(ORT) 5 persons were returning to
their homes from a ball game. The
coach, Mr. Marvin Wisenart, and
his wife were turning in the driveway
of their home in New Lisbon,
Indiana when the car behind them
stopped and Mrs. Leona Barlow, also
of New Lisbon called three bright
lights in the sky to their attention.
Also in the Barlow car were Mrs.
Barlow's son and daughter, Dave
