THE "ORRVILLE PHOTO”

In the Spring of 1953, the program called UFO Roundtable,
received a photo of a “flying saucer" in the mail. The sender was

anonymous; the envelope was postmarked Orrville, Ohio (Wayne
County). |

:

The UFO Roundtable featured Mr. Earl Neff, of the Cleveland

Ufology Project, and was M.C.d by Harv Morgan, of KYW Radio,
Cleveland, Ohio.

It showed a UFO over a cornfield. The stereotyped "flying -
saucer’ has a dome, flat base, and has a metallic shine.

The time, according to the two boy photographers, was be-
tween 2:00-3:00 P.M, (EDST). (Sun's position can be ascertained
by negative. )

The date of this occurrence was July or August of 1962, The
corn’s height (1964) observed by the Editor on different cocasions,
places the time somewhere in the last two weeks in July.

The boys were taking pictures of a new kitten in their back
yard, when someone in the vicinity of a truck stop, a short distance
(S and W) away on U.S. Rte. 30, shouted that something was up
there. They scanned the sky and soon saw an object moving from
S-N at a very slow speed. (40 MPH) The object seemed to be
about 300-500 yards away. Its angle of elevation was about 15° ,
and its altitude, low. When the object was directly W of them, it
abruptly turned toward them (E). Both boys claimed to have
attempted photos of the “flying saucer."’ Three photos were taken
in all. The photo in question was taken through a 1-27 Brownie -
Special. The other photos taken by the second photographer (reflex

camera) have not been seen by any other UFO researchers as far
as we know,

Sele Mia eres Pr EA . a OLE Or ee RE Le [rere res i Ee ee Yr eT ee o gw ee » . ae OS

The boys said the “UFO” passed directly over their Seads at
500-1,000 feet. Its speed then was about 2-3 times a lig..¢ plane's
speed. It flew almost level, gradually accelerating into the east.
The whole sighting lasted less than a minute.

The bottom of the object was dark or lead-colored. One boy
thought it had a granulated look. Its dome was aluminum-like.
No protrusions of any kind, no details. No trail or exhaust, no
lights, no sound.

When Mr. Herman, an officer at Quality Castings of Orrville,
Ohio, attended our lecture to the Wayne County Astronomy Assoc.,
in Wooster, Ohio; he showed interest in, and offered his help in
“smoking-out’ ihe anonymous photographers. His interest had
previdusly been piqued when he saw the picture of the UFO in the
Orrville newspaper accompanied by an appeal. (Photo placed by
Universal Merlicntian Society of Medina. )

We accepted his offer of assistance, and to our great surprise,
we were notified a week or ten days later that he had tracked down
the ‘culprits."" Mr. Herman arranged a meeting at which FSIC's
chairmen met the boys. They released the negative (permanently)
to us, and related the circumstances under which the photos were
taken. '

Mr. Hecman found out in the process, thatone of the boys had
used a UFO photo in connection with a theme for his science class
(Mr. Lyons). But that photo was different than the one in question
and apparently just as “authentic.”

Mr. Close, a Cleveland private detective, had the “Orrville
Photo” analyzed by experts. The findings were negative; the photo
was declared a hoax. According to them, the object was nearby;
a model about 18 in. from edge to edge. They also found that the
reflection effect could only result from the sun shining on a small
object, not the large object described by the boys. ( 20-40 ft. in
dia.)

In previous talks with the boys, FSIC’s representatives gave
voice to a similar theory, but the boys vigorously denied any such
speculation.

Although FSIC’s representatives found several discrepancies
in the several talks with the boys, they were unable to wangle an
admission that the photo was resourcefully concocted. They insist
to this day that their story and the UFO are true.

Even though the weight of the evidence is heavily against the
picture’s authenticity, further analysis is necessary before closing the
book on the "Orrville Photo.”

Light Over Baltimore As

On the first of August, 1962, Mr. and
Mrs. Firck of North Point Road, Dun-
dalic-rssex section of Baltimore county,
also Mrs. Harper and son of Old North
Point Road observed an amber light
which appeared larger than the dise of
Venus, in the eastern sky. Flashes were
emitted ao Ros ie of every two min-
utes, lasting for a few seconds, and pro-
ceeded by ‘ soft, crumbling sound. Ob-

‘ect yisible from 9:15 p.m. until 9:55
EDT, when it disappeared below eastern
horizon. Seen again at 10:20 p.m., a bit
ESE of its original position by the Harp-
ers and Fincks and one other anony-
mous couple who also noticed two small
planes in the vicinity,

A short time later, a report from the
towson area stated that a large, bright
object was seen to move from the north
to south, then reyersed direction, going
north, and eventually proceeding west
