New Mexico, andi stated subdstantilally es follows:

About 2155 hours, last Triday nicht, 18 July 1952, my dsaventer
enl I wore lying in the front yard of my home at Placitas, New Mexico
observing the Constellation Corona Borealis. About in the center of this
Conatelintion, there appeared a yellowish-orange glowing object which was
moving at a tremendous rete of speed. From our place of observation
Corona Borealis was almost directly overhead and this object moved
directly to the East for about 15 or 20 seconds, made a 90° turn South
for evout 5 seconds, turned 90° West and remained on that course for 2 or
3 seconds, when it again turned 90° South and stayed on that course till

out of sisht. Tho object did not eppear to flame out, nor did it mats any so

that was audible to us. I have no idea as to its size or shapes; however, it
eppeared more brilliant than a star and to be flying on the sane level as tha
atara. Its altitude appeared to remain constent. My daughter and I md besn
out observing the stars for about one half (4) hour prior to sighting this
object, and our cyes were accustomed to the dark. The entire period of our
observation of this object was about one (1) mimite. It was not a star or
meteor, as we see falling sters and meteors almost every night there. I have
not seen this object since, although I have been watching for a similar
occurrences.

Mur. GHP 2.41500 that during the war he was a Tevigation,
Meteorology and Trigonometry Instructor for the Army Air Corps at Long Beach,
California, and was fanilisr with the Constelletions end their pos:
the sky, and also the action of meteors, constellations and falling stars.

1. This is to confirm the telephone call made to the Director
of Intelligence, Headquarters Command, USAF, by an agent of this
office on 23 July 1952. In this telephone call, information was
relayed which was received from Special Agent FRANCIS B. McGIVERN of
the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

2. According to Special Agent McGIVER!, two (2) former Air Force
military personnel Nici eR, Alexandria,
Virginia, a Arlington,
Virginia, were traveling on Highway #211 near Centerville, Virginia;
early in the morning of 19 July 1952. While traveling, their auto- ~
mobile (which is owned by was struck by an object which ap-
parently fell from the sky. Ss object left powder marks on the
automobile and then fell to the road. 21 eae id not
place any particular significance on this incident at the time and
left the object on the side of the road where it fell. Upon arriving
in Washington, they heard about the unconventional type of aircraft
sighted in the Washington vicinity and wondered whether the object which
hit their car had fallen from such aircraft. They thereupon referred
this matter to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. They are keeping
their autonodile in such a location as that it can be readily accessible
for examination.

3. This office is referring this matter to you for whatever action
you might deem appropriate. The Office of Special Investic¢ations is not
taking any further action.
