SUBJECT: FLYING DISCS
SECURITY MATTER - X
Reference is .made to my teletype dated 9-4-47 , advising that
Mrs. HAYMO~UIS , Oswego, Oregon, was reported to have seen a number
of discs on 9-3- 47 above Oswego .
Mrs . DUPUIS was interviewed and described the object which she
has observed as followa a
While entertaining her 7 year old son and 10 year old neighbor
child on her lawn, at about noon , Mrs . DUPUIS and the children noticed
approximately t,,o dozen round silver objects high in the sky . Mrs . DUPUIS
stated she believed these objects to have been platter shaped rather than
spherical and to have been considerably larger than an airplane of the cub
type which was flying in a different portion of the sky at the same time.
She advised that these objects appear ed to her t o be at a great distance
and constructed of some white metallic mater ial.
Mrs . DUPUIS' attention was first drawn to the objects by an ex
planation from one of the childr en to the effect that the airplane was sky
writing. The objects were grouped in approximately an ar c about level with
the sun and to the l eft of the sun as viewed by Mrs. DUPUIS . They did not
change positions during the 3 or 4 minutes which she pbserved them but some
of the larger of the objects appear ed to rotate rapidly in the manner of a
wheel . One of the objects was separ ated by considerabl e distance from the
main group and while she was watching Mrs. DUPUIS states this object began
to fall and floated slowly downward until it \"18.S no longer visable because
of trees on the horizon.
Mrs. DUPUIS advised that she continued to observe the remaining
objects until her eyes began to be affected by the brightnes of the sky
whereupon she went into her house and is unabl e to state wh became of the
group.
