Perry had the slide, tnings ol!:
gan to , happen. Since then he's
had at least 50 letters and calls
about it. ~
One of the letters concerned
him greatly. It was from the .
National Investigation Com- II
mittee on Aerial Phenomena.
The committee had noticed an \'
article about Perry's find in a
Detroit naper. l
"From past experience with
pbot~graphic evidence," the
letter continued, "we con-
sider it unlikely that you
will ever . see your picture
again.'' The 1 e t t e r said
NICAP wanted 'the picture
made pubJ?.c.
All Perry knew about the ·
whereabouts of the picture was
that it was ' in Air Force hands. t
The FBI would only say that Iit was in "proper hands," Per-
ry said. j
So last week Perry wrote to 1
the President telling him be
can't iind out where his slide ,
js and asking assurance that he
will get it back.
f f 'f
"The only way I'll be satis, j
fied if I don't get it back is if j
the Government tells me it's
top secret," said Perry later.
He has had offers fO'JtJ the
slide from grpups that indicate
they would go into court to
gain possession of it from the
Government.
