Radar Sights
Objects But
Airliner Does Not
WASHINGTON, — Radar
showed the air over the nation’s
capital was full of flying objects
early Tuesday, but an airliner
directed to one of the radar sight
ings could not find a thing.
The CAA radar at Washington
National Airport, which reported
scores orf sightings from 1:30 to
5 a.m., refrained from transmit
ting its findings to the Air Force
at nearby Andrews Field because
“no visual sightings were made.”
The Air Force said its An
drews Field radar showed noth
ing, and its 24-hour jet-intercep
tor patrol remained on the ground
because it was not notified of the
National Airport sightings.
Meanwhile, the Air Force an
nounced it had brought some of
its “flying saucer” experts from
Wright - Patterson Field, Dayton,
O., for a news conference Tues
day afternoon.
At the same time, the Air Re
search and Development Com
mand is continuing its upper air
research studies with a new type
camera used in determining the
source of light from luminous
bodies. Designed to be of parti
cular use in solving the saucer
mystery, the camera breaks light
into the spectrum to indicate the
chemical composition of the light
source. It is similar to photo
graphic devices which chemists
use for similar purposes.
A CAA spokesman said the
latest sightings showed as many
as 12 unidentified objects on the
radar screen at one time. They
appeared to be traveling from 90
to 120 miles an hour in a 15
mile long area between Andrews
Field and Herdon, Va.
About 3 a.m., an Eastern Air
line southbound flight was direct
ed into the area but its crew saw
nothing in the sky:
U.S. Swimming Team
At Olympics Continue
Record-a-Day Pace
HELSINKI, (JP) — Continuing
the record-a-day (or better) pace
of the 1952 Olympic swimming
competition, the United States
women’s 400 meter relay team
shattered the Olympic record in
winning its trial heat today.
The American quartet was
timed in 5:18.1 in beating Holland
in its heat. This broke the Olym
pic mark of 4:29 set by another
American team in the 1948 Olym
pics at London.
Three United States men swim
mers had little trouble qualify
ing for the second round of the
men’s 100 meter backstroke and,
jn rather unexpected perform
ances, the American water polo
team won its first game of the
semi - final round competition.
American fencers marked up a
decisive victory in a semi-final
competition in the team sabre
event.
America’s hopes in the women’s
springboard diving competition
Received a setback when an inter
national jury over - ruled the
judges who granted Mrs. Zoe Ann
Olsen Jensen a second chance to
perform one dive after she had
complained the mechanism con
trolled the board had not func
tioned properly.
