On January 31, the grade 4 class of the Oliver Elementary School sighted four unidentified flying objects over Fairview in a south-east direction. The teacher, somewhat provoked by the current of whispering sweeping through the class, was quickly informed of the cause of the excitement when a boy exclaimed, “They’re flying saucers.”

The class was directed to go to the windows for a better view. The four brilliant silver craft seemed to have no conventional flight formation. One object was some distance ahead of the two following craft which in turn were followed by the fourth object. Cruising seemed to be the best word with which to describe the leisurely flight of the objects.

After illustrating their impressions on the blackboard the entire class agreed the wingless, disc-shaped objects were slightly elongated in shape, with a definite tail structure of some kind. If these craft should prove to be other than UFOs, it will be a great disappointment for 23 pupils and one teacher.
