This is Government Attic's posting of a 1969 Library of Congress annotated bibliography, UFOs and Related Subjects, compiled by Lynn E. Catoe for the Air Force Office of Scientific Research. The Defense Technical Information Center released it under FOIA in November 2014.

Gilman, Peter. Do the cherubim come from Mars? Flyin.; saucer review, v. 13,
Sept. -Oct. 1967: 19-21, 29.
On Apr. 24, 1964, Gary Wilcox, who was working his farm in Newark Valley,
N. Y. , allegedly saw a UFO land in a nearby field. The crew were two
humanoid 4-ft. -tall entities who were holding specimens· of soil and sod,
said they were from Mars, and who explained that although they had been
obtaining their food from the atmosphere, they had to find a way to
rehabilitate their soil to raise food. Author suggests that "food taken from
the atmosphere might be :>.nalogous to the celestial manna described in the
Bible in Exodus; the angels involved in this manifestation were the cherubim
and U "'l'efore may have come frmn Mars.'' The entities also said there would
be earning changes in the universe which would affect our solar systein and
that Mars may be where earth is now. Author draws a μi.rallel between
this information and Velikovsky's theory in Worlds in Collision.
