-One object, circular, northern course

-Viewed for approximately 8 seconds

-No physical evidence or photographs

-Object dull gray but sharply outlined on straight and level flight path.

-No apparent sound from object or "power". (Assuming propulsion)

-Seen from an estimated distance of 12 miles

-Speed calculated at 2000mph or faster

-Not very luminescent, but well defined

-Witness says they have seen meteors and this was not one

-Weather at the time of sighting was very clear

-Witness a Dr. Charles J. Prchal, Vet. meat inspector with US Dept. of Agriculture -- Interviewer deems Dr. Prchal "well educated, steady and observant".

-Object appeared brighter than the brightest stars. (Appears to contradict with above)

-Object appeared to stand still for a length of time and then speed off.

-Object estimated to be 49' to 100' in diameter.



Reports appear to be from several different witnesses. However, I can't be certain as I am having a very hard time reading some parts of the document during transition. Second name that I can make out appears to be Thomas Lynch.



End notes appear to read

"Dan & I have discussed it at various times. We had never heard of such a thing at the time. However, shortly afterward we heard many reports. I feel this would be ???(possibly considered) as having been reported by (Name scribbled out) in 1949."



Official Conclusion: Meteor

Considering the number of reports from this general part of the U.S. around that time, it would be interesting to see if plotting them would help. Most of the observers in these older reports seem to give a direction. If a time and direction plot were made, I wonder if anything would stand out as far as a location?

Another report that shouldn't have been marked off so easily.
