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.

Accounts of the mysterious aerial sights and sounds reported frequently in
Warminster, England. Author speculates that the dull, crunching noise
arises out of an electromagnetic interaction between a low-flying UFO and
the ground (espec!ally when there are deposits of ferromagnetic material).
He suggests that the "humming" sound might come from altitude-finding
de\•iccs on the UFOs.
