UFOs in the daily Press:

SAUCERS (CONTINUED)

Three mysterious craft landed on the railway tracks in Aube

TROYES, October 8 ("France-Soir" disp.).

Could it be that Martians consider the railway tracks of our country as ideal landing strips for their mysterious craft? One might believe so. For once again, it was on the rails, at Saint-Etienne-sous-Barbuise (Aube), that according to Mr. Marcel Guyot, 45 years old, and his son Jacques, 21 years old, a saucer and two flying cigars supposedly landed yesterday.

"It was around 7:30 p.m. and I was riding my bicycle home," Mr. Marcel Guyot told us, "when, as I was about to cross the level crossing that cuts through the Arcy-sur-Aube road, I suddenly saw three craft resting on the railway tracks, emitting a violent white light. Taken by surprise, I continued on my way and it was only a little later that I realized they were flying saucers, but I didn't dare go back."

Mr. Jacques Guyot, who passed the same spot a few minutes after his father, confirmed his father's account, even adding some details:

"One of the craft," he told us, "was round like a saucer, while the other two were elongated like cigars."

The news caused a sensation in Aube, as it was the first time such craft had touched down in the department.

And, well! People were starting to worry.
