# 'Saucer' Scares E.P. Woman
(Continued from Page One) "come and look." She said they both saw the flying object in the air.
"It looked like a dish plate upside down and spun away just like a plate would spin if you flung it into the air," Mrs. Reyes said. "It carried a light on the bottom, a bright light."
"I'M REALLY SURPRISED. I never expected to see anything like that around here. My husband and I had talked about the thing the people saw in New Mexico, but I didn't think I would ever see anything like that here.
"I'm still shaking," she added.
Several small planes were in the air at the time of Mrs. Reyes' report, but she insisted the object she saw was not an airplane.
# N.M. Sky Objects Puzzle to Expert
(Continued from Page One) reported objects in a state loaded with radar installations.
"It is my understanding that New Mexico has more than its share of radar installations," Hynek said. "It seems strange to me that MTI (Moving Target Interception) radar did not pick up anything."
HYNEK WAS in Socorro yesterday to talk to Socorro policeman Lonnie Zamora who started it all when he said he saw a bathtub-shaped object at dusk last Friday.
Zamora said the object stood on four girder-like legs. He said when he approached the object, it flew away.
Hynek said Zamora is a "level headed police officer." Hynek said he believes Zamora saw something, but does not know what it is.
The latest reports came from deep southern New Mexico last night when many reported seeing a bright object making low passes.
JIM NAVARRO, an employe at the port of entry at Anthony, New Mexico - Texas, said he saw the object the past two nights.
"It was the same type illumination as a star, but it was too close, too bright and too big," Navarro said.
He said it seemed to remain still for a long time, then took off at a high rate of speed. Navarro said when it took off, it appeared to change "to all kinds of colors."
A state policeman said he heard reports from the Air Force that a plane had been dispatched in the area.
REPORTS from Deming and Hatch said many had seen the same object.
The Air Force said low-flying jets have been taking pictures day and night from Albuquerque west to Kingman, Ariz: and from Deming west to Casa Grande, Ariz.
The planes use bright Strobe units that flash off and on, light- ing a large area for picture taking.
## Santa Fean Reports
(Continued from Page 1) ring of blue flame erupting from many jets around the bottom of the craft. The jets were noiseless and were turned off while he watched. He saw no persons around the craft which he described as a windowless bright metal, egg-shaped object and as long as a telephone pole, and probably 14 feet in circumference.
No one ventured out of the Gallegos home again during the night. The object was gone in the morning, but the ground was still smoldering.
A team of investigators at Kirtland Air Force Base, Albuquerque, was to visit the scene. Whether it was the same UFO or another one is unknown, but Undersheriff James Luckie said a tourist told him in a cafe here Sunday night that a low-flying, bright object had nearly crowded him off U.S. 85 two miles south of Socorro between 7:30 and 8 p.m. The unidentified tourist was traveling north of 85 and the object going south.
