Chief t‘unitions Branch RIG
Dugway Proving Ground

On the Day of 27th October 1952, tih 0800, ihile A companion ef the Nand Ra,
=a who resides et OAD Sat Lake City, and I were in the process
eer hunting in the Vicinity of Hickman Canyon. A canyon on the County route between
St. John and Crantsville, Tooele County. ‘as somewhat momentarly startled to-ecee and hear
an object flying tward us and about the altitude of an feet, ‘hich was immediately and
positively identified by my companion Miss and myself. As the objsct
called in the past flying Saucers. iss Qiiimmmmend I followed the object with our eyes

untill the object seem to fly in the mountain tentatively identified as south mountain and
ws hserd the crash, details are as follows. |

‘hile Mies @@gMillimmend I had seperated to work around A knoll, She in A North
westerly direction and I in A south westerly diraction we had agreed to meet again on the
south side of the knoll. Before I had core in to sight of Miss@ea! came into her
sight because she was hicher on the knoll. She shouted for me to look up and i immediately
saw this object. I put the telescope 1 had mounted on an 06 rifle and followed its flight
till I saw that it was coming directly for oe so I took A pocket compass and drew 4 sight
on its flight line, ‘hich read 110 Degrees Last By proven 290 Degrees ‘jest. In A perfect-
-ly straight line and decending on about A 15 percent angle from sky to earth. I watched
the flight untill it seemed to hit in the Mountain called south Mountain and then we heard
A terrific Crash. But no evidence of an explosion. I checked my comvass reading again and

direction bearings and stayed in the area till three thirty orl530 looking for any addit-
ional activity. and saw none.

b. In comparing Miss observations with mine for record, She insisted that she
heard the object three op four minutes before she saw it and assumed that it was A small
rirplane.and altho she was fifty yards higher on the knoll than I was where she was the
object was formed like A saucer with A dark spot in the middle. Altho where I was I look-
-ed straignt up under the craft and can positively state that the object had to or mors
intake or exaust pines sticking out in the same direction that it was traveling. ‘here I
was there was no illusion of spinning while where Misqulgggg> stood she testified that
it was spinning. To me it was convsx on top and concave on the bottom with the smooth lines
broken by these >ises sticking out in the forward position. Obeervation could be guns
Pocket tubes Jst sxaust or intake. Put at time of observation no activity such as smoke
fire or vapor was seen.But I could not tell whether it was spinning or not.At least part

of it would have to be stationary. From whers a ee oromnt it was or part was
definitely scinning. Object was dark grey in color o t brown this was agreed on by

both Viss Qqggmmmend myself. The sound is and was like a car traveling about sixty miles
an hour. Or in relation A car window defroster running at high speed.

SUBJECT: Continued statement 0 rate 1, unidentified Airbourne object seen
‘and observed October any W952. ( ' :

. After again looking around for unusual activity in the area, I returned to Salt
Lake City to try and institute A search without, agp eane to much trouble, /ithout any
sucess. I then went A head and did all the reSéa has been published on the subject
of Flying Saucers And drew up maps and area landscapes to fit the area that I was in when
I sighted the object. I again interveiwed lis to verify facts that I wanted to
Be positive of. and swore her to secrecy untill I could clear the facts with personnel
at Dugway froving Grounds. October 28th 1952 I put in A phone call to Lt. Arthur WW. Fyfe
in regards to zetting some kind of help in my search. He was very helpful and offered to
try searching with an aircraft fowum Dugway however I was not sure enough of the names of
the Area to direct over the phone and I prefered to start the ground search that I had
previously arranged for. However I was instructed to see Mr. Faye Gillette and report
what I had seen. But Mr. Gillette was on another case and I talked to an undersherrif
who wes not very cooperative so I decided to take people that I knew I could trust and
continue the search my self. I went alone and searched the area Tuesday Jed..and friday
Netobsr 28,29,30, Then made preperations to take more help in the Mist ’65f Neteheer The
2nd of November I swore to Secrecy all of
Tooele and Coyernment workers. And Miss And we continued the search
on horse back. Nothing showed untill 1330 aircraft civilian rating came over the
are we were searching and made A half circle and continued in 4 north westerly direction
Miss Gime made an unsuccesful attempt to photograph it. For the registration numbsar
at exactly 1400 Afore mentioned people were spread out about A distance of four miles and
all reported hearing the same noise intermitenly that his and I had heard before
and when we sighted the saucer. But None of us saw any flight of any kind. Noise continued
for about five minutes and during that time faded out and came in again. No explanation
could be advanced by any of the observers present. The noise was or seemed to be the loud-

est North west side of south mountain where en VisS@M were stationed
i

it was so loud that Missa and so d in the cedars in preperation of try-
-ing to photograph what ever it was that se to be right over them. Howsver other than

the final cessation of the noise nothing developed.in talking with Lt. Fyfe And Intelle-
~gience I hope to convey the idea that other than airsearch of the area I am sure I can
do better without to much out side help untill I need them. I will suggest to civil auth-
-oritiss to have myself Deputized for special search detail in that area and so as not to
arouse suspicion if we are observed by outsiders.

On the night of 25 October 1952 ground observers reported an unidentified
flying object in the vicinity of SHIGANO-SHIWA, 33° - i'w and 130° - 19'S,
One F-94B, Conform 29, was airborne on a local training flight at the time,
and was instructed to investigate. Two (2) additional F-94B's were "scrambled"
to investigate. Conform 29 had previously, on the same flight, observed a
bright light in the vicinity, of SHIGANO-SHIMA which looked like an "overzrown
light bulb". When the three aircraft proceeded to investigate the later re-

ported sizhting, they found nothing except a bright atar. Further details are
included in Part II of this report, -- .
