No Cause
Reading tike newspapers
these days is like sitting down
with a real good scieinep fjetion
book — only .more thrilling be-
cause of Konest-to-goodness
eye-witness accounts of Un
identified Flying Objects.
Until last Thursday morning,
I far one took all these stories
about “actual sightings’’. with
the proverbial grain of salt,
Basically a skeptic, I told my
self that people who claimed
they had seen mysterious hov
ering lights, in the sky Were
either highly imaginative nuts
or frightened fanatics.
But when I read'that a per
sonal friend of mine was listed
as one of several UFO observ
ers in this district, all such
theories vanished in a twink
ling.
Clinton’s W. D, Dinnin is not
given to hysteria. If she says
she saiw a “lone solitary bright
light’’ in the heavens, that's;
good enough for me. The fact
that her vision was shared by
two other Clintoni'ans, with
whom I am vaguely familiar,
forces me to believe that
thing big may be going
outer space.
I’m still not ready to
these lights shine forth from
flying saucers piloted by little
green Martians or violet Ven-
usians .... but I will , concede
that if there is indeed a super
ior civilization somewhere up
or out there, it will deal a sev
ere blow to egotistical earth
lings.

■ smug race, We’ve learned to
, glory in our achievements on
earth, in air and under sea.
We’ve lived to boast to ope
another of our ’ conquests and
grown to- hate those who would
dare to. outdo us, We’ve devised
means to destroy. ourselves by
merely flicking a switch, We’ve
begun to probe outer space an
search of new adventures, new

Wiped out,
As brave fearless astronauts
chaseci each other around the
fringes of the earth’s atmos
phere while a fascinated world
watched via the wonders of
television, it now appears pos
sible that our scientific mar
vels were seen as childish an
tics1 by a race or races who
have forgotten more than we
ever knew.
The hunter may be the hunt

Even at that I refuse to
worry. Beings as intelligent as
our . “visitors” would seem to
be, will probably leave as quiet

ful if they will want any part
of this vain society that allows
millions to die each year from
cold and hunger that could, be
prevented, from wars that
prove nothing, from'heart dis

Our “intruders’’ will likely
wisk away in their shimmering

knowledge that if we do not
annihilate ourselves in time, we
can be sent yelping like whip

the “scouts” can report that
earthly habitation pqses no

intelligence.
