Disc Too Fast To Be Photographed

BOISE, Idaho, July 10 - The disc, apparently is quicker than the camera eye.

Dave Johnson, Idaho Statesman aviation editor, today reported that the several feet of movie film he exposed when he spotted what appeared to be a flying disc showed nothing after it was developed.

"I am now in the position of having seen an object which might have been a flying disc, but without photographic proof of it x x x," Johnson said. "I can only reiterate that I saw something, and that I do not believe I was seeing it through power of suggestion, and that what I saw was definitely not an aircraft. It was not a balloon."

Johnson is considering taking to the skies again for more disc hunting, he said.
