Those 'things' are with us again.
Air Force intelligence officers are
investigating reports that vary from lights in the sky over Vancouver to a mysterious red
globe that hovered over the ground near Aldergrove.
The sightings came in early Wednesday.
At least three were received by Air Sea
Rescue Centre, the Canadian Press carried a full account of another and radio stations
received more.
Mrs. O. B. Olson of Aldergrove said she
watched the red globe for 10 minutes from a window of her home.
She said it was 300 yards away, about 30
feet in diameter, and moved off towards Vancouver with a flash that lit up the sky.
The other calls referred to bright lights
high in the sky over Vancouver, Capital Hill and White Rock.
No aircraft were known to be in the area at
the time.
An RCAF spokesman said such reports were
turned over to Intelligence for checking. He could not comment on these reports but
many in the past had turned out to be weather balloons.
