# Air Force UFO Expert to Check 'Saucer' Reports
SOCORRO Dr. J. Allen Hynek, special unidentified flying object consultant for the Air Force, arrived in Socorro Tuesday night to begin his investigation of a Socorro policeman's report that he saw a mysterious flying object last Friday.
Dr. Hynek said he hoped to talk to the policeman, Lonnie Zamora, and then visit the site -where Zamora says, he saw the object this morning.
He said he had not been advised by the Air Force if his presence here indicates that the government has eliminated the possibility of U. S. aircraft having caused the reports.
Dr. Hynek, of the Dearborn Observatory at Northwestern University, said he would decide whether to visit Espanola, where another object was reportedly spotted over the weekend, after his investigation of the Socorro incident.
Capt. Hector Quintanilla, chief of the Aerial Phenomena Branch at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, said T. Sgt. David Moody of the office already was in New Mexico and would assist Dr. Hynek in the investigation.
Fired at Object
The most recent report of the objects came early Tuesday morning from State Policeman Tommy Richardson of the US-66 community of Moriarty.
He said he had a call from Don Adams of Edgewood, near Moriarty, who told of seeing an object about 100 feet off the ground. He said it appeared to be a fluorescent or green-colored glowing object.
Adams told the officer he drove his car under the object and his car stalled. The youth reported he then got out and fired six shots at the object, reloaded and fired again.
The report was another in a series which have kept New Mexico and military authorities busy since Zamora's original report Friday. The reports, until Tuesday, had come from points following a line from south of Truth or Consequences to an area near Espanola.

search Organization said she believes intelligent beings from another planet made several landings in New Mexico in the past few days.
"We are convinced the Socorro policeman saw what he said he saw," Coral Lorenzon, the director, said after her return from investigating the reported landing of a UFO near Socorro.
Mrs. Lorenzon said the sighting of an object northwest of Espanola early Sunday was similar to the one described at Socorro. She said she is investigating the other reported sightings during the past few days.
The organization was formed by Mrs. Lorenzon in 1952
and she says it now has nearly 800 members around the world. She says there are some 6-12 landing incidences a year and she believes they are made by beings from another planet.
A sea water desalting plant sent from San Diego to Guantanamo Bay will produce 750,000 gallons of fresh water daily.
They came from the west, to his left, he said, and re- mained in sight for possibly two minutes, moving east, before disappearing over the horizon. Green described them as egg-shaped, about half as large as jet planes, shining brightly when the sun hit them but showing no visible smoke ejection. Mrs. Green said she was frightened and got beneath the dashboard of the truck after sighting the objects.
An Albuquerque couple, Mr. and Mrs. Napoleon Green, 1805 Walter SE, told the Journal Tuesday nigh t that two unidentified flying objects, traveling near the speed of jet planes, crossed US-85 in front of the truck they were riding in. Green, a driver for Apache Lumber Co., said he had been to Socorro to deliver a load of lumber. He had started back to Albuquerque and was about 17 miles north of So corro at 5:30 p.m. when he sighted the two objects one about 200 yards behind the other.
