# 'Flying Bathtub' Seen by Motorist
SOCORRO, April 27 (A) Socorro police were called to the scene last night where an officer reported seeing a strange flying object and later a motorist reported a silvery object in the air near Caballo Reservoir.
Officer Bill Pyland said a girl, who didn't give her name reported a fire in the hilly area one mile southwest of Socorro.
Officer Lonnie Zamora, while patrolling in his car Friday, said he saw an egg-shaped object land in a draw. When he approached, he said, the object flew away with a roar
Pyland said the girl, about 18, said she was from 300 to 500 feet from the fire and she thought there was something in the flames.
Pyland said men searched the area described by the girl but found nothing. He said officers would visit the area in daylight, noting it would be difficult to find any exact spot at night in the brushy desert terrain surrounding Socorro.
Representatives of the military and other officers who visited the spot where Zamora saw the object land found burned brush and scorched

## Heights Resident Saw 'Object' Here
A Vermont NE resident today told The Tribune she and a friend saw a strange silvery object flying over the State Fairgrounds last Thursday afternoon.
The resident, who asked that her name not be published, said the object was definitely not an airplane. She and her friend were in a car traveling south on San Pedro between 3:30 and 4 p.m. when they saw the UFO.
She said that the object was more or less egg shaped, similar to the description given by Socorro Officer Lonnie Zamora of an object he saw land near Socorro.
earth. They also found four impressions in the earth, apparently left by landing gear.
parently left by landing gear. The motorist, who identified himself to Pyland as George Mitropolis of Albuquerque, said that while driving north from El Paso he saw a "silver looking object go up, over a mountain, and down" out of sight.
Mitropolis said there was another car ahead of him when he first saw the object. "I caught up with them (the other car) and stopped them because I wanted to know if they had seen it too. There were two young men but they denied seeing anything."
He said he first reported it to Truth or Consequences officers, "but they just got a laugh out of it and told me to tell it to Socorro police because they had reported something like it."
Mitropolis said he felt better when he learned in Socorro that others had seen a similar object.
"No, I hadn't read about the other one before," he said. He said he was near the junction of U. S. 85 and New Mexico 180 and the object appeared to be about a quarter of a mile to the east. He said it looked like "an upside down bathtub" about 30 feet in diameter. It had no lights.
