DAMES FOIL 'CLUMSY' ESPIONAGE ATTEMPT
Stcoekholm, in English to Eastern North America, Aug. 24, 1954, 1200 CMTI--E

(Text)

A thoroughly clumsy attempt at espionage was described in yesterday's
issue of the Danish newspaper EKSTRA-BLADET. It took place at a military
camp in the southern part of Jutland. A motorist approached the guara

on duty and tried to coax military information out of him by offering
Cigarettes and candy. The guard, however, refused to be taken in,

and when the car started driving away he noted its license number.

Then he reported to his commanding officer, and so on through channels.

The completed investigation showed that the car belonged to the Polish
legation in Copenhagen.

FLYING SAUCER LANDING IN NORWAY REPORTED

Paris, AFP, Radioteletype in French to Authorized Recipients in Europe,
Africa, and the Near East, Aug. 24, 1954, 2230 GhT--E

(Text)

2S oye CST

Oslo--A flying saucer is reported to have landed last Friday in the region

of Mosjoen, about 300 kilometers northeast of Trondheim. 7

The pilot, a bronzed man with long hair, was seen by two sisters who
were picking berries in the mountains, according to a local paper.

An officer of the Mosjoen police force confirmed the fact that the two
sisters, aged respectively 24 and 32 years, who are not believed to
suffer hailucinations, claimed to have Seen the saucer land.

According to them, the pilot wore an aviator's coverall with no buttons.
After trying in vain to make himself understood by means of signs drawn
on a piece of paper, he got back into his machine, waved his hand to the
two sisters, and took off fast and vertically.

The ladies did not save time to get close to tne machine, and can give
only vague details as to its appearance, but according to their story
it was composed of two discs approximately 5 meters in diameter.

In spite of the unlikeliness.of their statements, the local police will
gO tomorrow to the landing spot in the hope of finding some trace of the
flying saucer.
