FLYING SAUCERS OVER GERMANY

MUNICH. -- A flat, circular craft with a frayed edge was spotted yesterday morning over the town of Obersuessbach (Bavaria) by several people engaged in hop picking, reports the D.P.A. agency. The village schoolteacher, who was the first to see the object, stated that it was moving at high speed from East to West. All witnesses unanimously declared that it stood out clearly against the clear sky and that they could not have been victims of an optical illusion.

Meanwhile, American authorities are currently conducting an investigation to verify the claims of some residents of the village of Landshut, who reported seeing an aircraft flying at very high altitude release hundreds of balloons. These balloons allegedly burst about a hundred meters above the ground, releasing something that resembled swarms of insects.

INNSBRUCK. -- Flying saucers were reportedly seen over western Austria this week.

A pink disk, the size of the moon, moving slowly from West to East, was observed on September 1st between 11 AM and noon by a guide and his two children near the Habicht massif in the Stubai Alps, south of Innsbruck, not far from the Italian border. The mountaineer stated that the object bore no resemblance to a weather balloon, which he observed the following day in roughly the same location.

Additionally, about twenty people claim to have seen, on August 31st, for more than an hour in the Bludenz region (Vorarlberg), "a silver object, the size of a ball," slowly flying westward over the summit of Davenna. Once again, the witnesses insisted that they had not mistaken the object for an airplane, as one had followed the same direction shortly before.

Reports of flying saucers had ceased to be reported in Austria for nearly two years. It is recalled that during the recent International Aeronautical Congress, scientists gathered in Innsbruck refused to discuss this topic and, for the most part, expressed their skepticism regarding the existence of flying saucers.
