FORLI, November 13 (A.F.P.). -- A mysterious red ray swept across the sky over the Forli region. This ray, directed from top to bottom, landed on two tractors, a gasoline-powered one and a Diesel-powered one, traveling a short distance from each other. The first, equipped with a magneto, stopped immediately when caught in the ray, while the Diesel continued to operate.
This inexplicable phenomenon, following recent sightings of flying discs or cigars, caused a strong reaction among the local population.
