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. The bibliography lists more than 1,600 items and was requested to support the University of Colorado UFO study led by Edward U. Condon. Its preface concludes that no simple, single explanation of the UFO phenomenon applies to all cases.

Mar, -Apr. 1964: 8-10.
Author answere Menzel's criticism of statistical method on which theory of
crthoteny is based.
Ribera, At.tonio. "Bavic" in the Iberian peninsula. Flying saucer review, v. 9,
Sept. -Oct. 1963: 30-32.
Evidence is presented that confirms statements made about global orthoteny
and the Bayonne-Vichy line which Aime Michel discovered and illustrated in
~.is book, Flying Saucers and the Straight Line Mystery (New York, Criterion
Books, 1958). "Ba\'i.c" consisted of six UFO sighting points over France:
Bayonne, Lencouacq, Tulle, Ussel, Gelles, and Vichy, and the incidents all
occurred on Sept. 24, 1954. Michel later discovered that his line could be
further extended until it encircled the globe. Author's verification is of
the Spanish stretch of·· Bavic."
