An Oliver resident reports sighting a strange
"zig-zagging celestial object" in the sky Monday
evening.
Similar reports originated from viewers in San
Diego, U.S.A., Chile, Argentina and the
Antarctic.
Mrs. Perry Sallows said the object zig-zagged
from west to east, first appearing bright red
and later changing to the appearance of an
"awfully bright star". "Sometimes," she reports,
"it appeared quite dull, then bright . . .
turning in circles and traveling in different
directions."
She first sighted the object about 10:30, and
said it took about twenty minutes to traverse
the sky.
