Sees Flying Saucer
In a recent letter to the Ed-
itor, London Free Press, J. A.
Beechie, a member of a family
which has retained a summer
home here for years, writes as
follows:
"Last Sunday while sight see-
ing with my friends on the look-
out atop Mount Royal, Montreal,
we saw what I am certain .was
some form of flying saucer. There
were three of us who noticed the
object, a long silver cigar-shap-
ed form, coming down at a ter-
rific rate of speed from west of
the city, pausing for a mement
above what we calculated to be
the back river area of the city,
and then suddenly whirling over
on its side and returning from
the direction it came, It quite
clearly was not a jet plane or any
man-built machine, and we are
just as certain we did not imag-
ine what we saw."
According to radio reports
these mysterious flying saucers
have been seen in, Australia, too.
Is the "Man from Mars" prepar-
ing to bombard us, we wonder?
