This FBI file release, Part 14 of the Bureau's UFO file, collects correspondence and memoranda from 1960 to 1968. Much of it concerns Joseph Perry of Grand Blanc, Michigan, whose moon photograph appeared to show a saucer-like object.

The file also covers a Denver lecture about space people, an anonymous Dallas informant, a NICAP subcommittee, and form replies stating that UFOs fall outside FBI jurisdiction.

Re: UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS; ANONYMOUS INFORMANT DALLAS, TEXAS OCTOBER 9, 1967

A young white female, who refused to give her name, appeared at the Dallas FBI Office on October 9, 1967. She stated she is interested in Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) and has received a quantity of information concerning beings from outer space. She stated she will not reveal her identity as she would feel like a fool if this information is not true. She stated if it is true, however, she will meet with interested officials and furnish all the information she has, provided nothing is done to endanger her safety.

She stated in July, 1967, she met a being from another planet who had assumed earthly form. He gave her certain information, then he was picked up and departed from the earth on August 21, 1967. She stated she then received messages from non-earthly sources in a manner she refused to discuss. She stated these sources told her of the following:

(1) An antimissile missile was fired at a UFO over Africa on May 22,1962,but the UFO was protected by its "force field."

(2) A UFO was detected 22,000 miles from earth by radar about August 6,1967.

(3) A UFO was detected over Antartica August 20, 1967.

(4) A UFO was detected over the "Dewline" in the past week and was shot down, and beings from outer space are trying to recover it.

Informant would furnish no further details. She stated if this information is true, she will know other information
