Flying Egg In Massachusetts 4

Charles F. Kirk, 20, of Woburn, Mass.,_
reported to the Woburn Times, Woburn,
Mass., that on the Ist of November, 1962,
he had sighted a “streamlined egg-shap-

ed” object ‘that. hovered over Woburn
“for several minutes between 2 and 2:10
p.m. He said it looked like a streamlined
(elongated) egg cut through the middle,
and estimated its altitude at less than.
2,00 feet. Kirk, who is a machinist and
carpenter for the Wells Machine Com-
pany, wus working on tope of the com-,
pany’s new building on Salem Street
when he sighted the strange object. He
said he thought the object ,was about 40
feet long, 30 feet wide and about 15 feet
in height, but could have been much
larger. He was obviously upset by his
encounter and he described his “eerie
feeling” uf being watched. (Sce article
about Barney Hill sighting). He said he
didn't want to see one of the things
again.

The object was golden orange in color,
flat on the bottom, with a black band
near the lower edge and a projection or
periscope hanging about ten feet from
the bottom. This strange device (the
periscope) kept clicking at about 15 sec-
ond inte: vals. Except for the clicking
sound, the object was silent, and it “pro-
duced a band of light around the build-
ing on which he was working.” Accord-
ing to the Woburn Times, L. C. Anstey
of the Woburn Civilian Defense found
a slight increase in background radiation
at the site of the incident.
