me that they were the clothes he had been buried in.” approx 600 years, contained equipment that was ‘out of this world’, and was made of a metal that was unidentifiable. They discovered a basket-ball sized sphere of silvery appearance. When held at arms length, the object did not fall. (The ball was found in the exact centre of the craft.) Another helicopter arrived containing 5 CIA agents who produced authorisation documents from THE WHITE HOUSE, and informed them that a ship was on its way to collect the craft. The CIA tried to stop the physicist from dismantling the object any further, but a Shell Oil official told them that everything on the rig belonged to Shell Oil and they would not surrender the object until the ship arrived. Further exploration by the Physicist revealed a cylindrical object with a red button on the end. When pressed a thin white ray shot out a travelled about a mile before petering out. An assortment of other gadgets was discovered, including a rod which produced a bolt of electricity resem- bling lightning, that punched a sizeable hole in clouds overhead, and a lump of “putty” like substance, which caused an immense explosion when a small piece was thrown into the sea. The CIA ship arrived shortly after, and TV cop, Telly Savalas admits one real life case would have made his hair stand on end, if he had any. He says: “I went into a coffee shop to ask the way to a gas station and was told to walk down the road towards a freeway. I had just started walking when I heard someone ask in a high-pitched voice whether I wanted a lift. I turned and saw a guy in a black Cadillac. I got in and he drove me to the gas station. He even loaned me a dollar to buy the stuff. I insist- ed that I would have to pay him back, and he wrote down his name and number so that I could return the money. His name was Harry Agannis.” Savalas says that soon afterwards he telephoned the number and asked for Agannis. “A woman answered the phone. She told me that Harry Agannis was her husband - BUT THAT HE HAD BEEN DEAD FOR THREE YEARS!” Amazed and intrigued, Savalas decided to visit the woman. He took the piece of paper the man had given him. “I showed it to her and she told me it was definitely her husband’s handwriting. I described the clothes the man was wearing, and she told The Shell Oil Company oilrig, PACE- SETTER 2, was set up on the continental shelf, 90 miles off the coast of New Jersey, USA, in the area known as Georges Bank. On their first drill test, they struck matal. Thinking it was a sunken ship or subma- rine from WWII, they checked with the War Dept and West Germany, but there were no records of losses in that area. Sonar scans recorded an object approx 50 feet in diameter, in 600 feet of water. On June 8th, 4 winches were lowered, and the object raised. The object was cov- ered in barnacles, except near the top cen- tre. It had small rectangular openings all the way around it. When the barnacles were chipped off, a “flying saucer shape” was revealed. The Oil Rig boss immediately radioed his supe- riors in Atlantic City. Three Shell officials arrived by heli- copter, along with a physicist from Massachusetts Inst of Technology. The preliminary inspections revealed that the object had been submerged for NEXUS - 31 THE CASE KOJAK COULDN'T SOLVE DID SHELL OIL DISCOVER A UFO? FEBRUARY 1991 *- YEAR BOOK
