Subj: UFO Observation of 22 July 1952

I agree with Dr Hynek that the flight characteristics and duration

as given certainly don't agree with those of @ meteor. Possibly the
evaluator had information that has since been lost. There is insufficient
information now available for an analysis. To change the evaluation at
this time, however, would cause an unwarranted amount of work in changing

our records.
