STORY FROM PASCO
PASCO. Wash., Nov. 22—Wl—'Tri-;
City residents had their own ver- '
sion of the “flying saucer" story to- j
day. In fact, they had several ver- ;
sions.
"Something" was visible over the
area about 4 p.m. yesterday. Some ■
persons said it was round; others j
cigar-shaped. Still others reckoned
it %as just a jet lighter guarding j
the Hanford A-bomb plant area.
And Mayer John Beck of Pasco •
recalled a similar instance during
World War II when a Navy patrol,
sent up to investigate similar re
poits, returned with word that sky
oaBdition* apparently magniiied a
planet many light yaars away.
