10, BRIEF SUMMARY OF SIGHTING

One round, red obj, the size of a nickel

(thru bincoulars???), was seen to travel west
at a slow rate of speed.

11. COMMENTS

Since this obj crossed a major portion
of the sky, in a straight course, ina
period of seven to eight minutes, it is
highly suggestive of a/c. A Northwestern
flight left Minneapolis for Fargo, N D
at 2050CST on 23 Jul 55, 20 mins before
Sighting occured. St Cloud is on flight
path from Minneapolis to Fargo and is

approx 50 miles from Minneapolis.
