‘Flying Discs’ Back]
With Us Again j
BOISE, Idaho, </P>—It’s flying
disc lime again in Idaho and the
United Air Lines pilot who spot
ted the latest one says “They
ought to be kept off the civil air
ways.”
Capt. Charles F. Gibian, who
while coming in to Boise for a
landing Monday night reported
spotting a disc-like object “going
like hell” at about 9,000 feet, told ,
the Boise Statesman:
“If it is real it must be some
sort of military experiment and if
that is the case they ought to ar
range to keep the objects off the :
civil airways.”
Army and navy spokesmen had
denied knowledge of the discs. 1
Gibian. who talked to The
Statesman by telephone from
Pendleton. Ore., became the sec
ond United pilot on flight 105 to
report seeing the flying objects.
* His predecessor was Capt. E. J.
Smith, who said he spotted two
groups of discs July 4, near Em
mett, Idaho.

Stassen Seeks i
Warrens Aid For I
1948 Campaign
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (/Pi —
Governor Earl Warren, a Presi
dential possibility himself, re
mained silent today on Harold ■
Stassen’s expressed hope that the
California chief executive would
support his Republican Presiden
tial aspirations in ’48.
The former Minnesota gove-noi
and avowed candidate for the d
publican Presidential nomina'i.m.
called on Warren at the state
house yesterday—just as the late
Wendell Willkie did in lining up
his campaign in 1944. They talked
for two hours. When the coni c: -
ence broke up, Stassen told news
men:
“I hope that when the 1948 con
vention comes I will have the sup
port of Governor Warren and the
California delegation. However, i‘
is too early to discuss a situation
of that kind.”
Warren, just back from a •rui-e
to Honolulu, was non-com nr Pal
“We had a pleasant visit,” he said.
“He’s an old friend and he u*ops
in to visit me every time he is in
California.”
Though they probably will see
each other again in a few days—

at a vacation spot—it seemed un
likely that even a second meeting
would bring any immediate sta.e

convention.
Stassen planned to make a quick
trip by plane to Los Angeles to
day to confer with Raymond

tional committeeman, and then re
turn Friday to the exclusive Bo

ing. He returned to San Francisco
last night after dining with War

the week end at the Bohemian
