Photographed!
DO “flying saucers” really exist? . . . New Zealander K. M. Gibbons, of Blenheim, claims actually to have taken a photograph of one, sighted by him at Nelson early in the morning of September 9, 1954.
At the time, he reported that at 2.20 a.m. he saw unusual lights in the sky. Quickly getting his 35-millimetre camera, and fitting a telephoto lens, he snapped a photograph of three disc-like objects, hovering in close line formation about a quarter
He ran outside and saw two men between the railway lines. He thought they might be burglars or dynamiters, and he ran forward, shining his torch.
He was dumfounded to see that the “men” were only 1-1/2 feet high with their heads encased in a transparent turret. And they had no arms!
A bigger surprise was a “flying saucer” sitting on the rails only 50 yards away.
The little robot men ran toward the “saucer”. As Dewilde galloped his courage to run after them, a ray from the “saucer” struck him in the face, temporarily paralysing him. The men entered the “saucer” through a trap-door and the “saucer” disappeared in the darkness.

FOR this reason, the organisation believes there is on record to-day sufficient powerful evidence to support the existence of real strange-shaped craft frequenting earth’s skies with flight characteristics and capabilities far beyond our most advanced designs and comprehensions.
The organisation sees significance in the fact that Government-sponsored investigating agencies, in the United States and Canada particularly, after five years’ research by their leading scientific brains, aided by all modern mechanical instruments, have failed to find a natural phenomena explanation that can match the reported facts and so explain them away.
To most laymen, the idea of “flying saucers” being space ships from other worlds is nothing much more than a fascinating subject for contemplation. But to some people—Civilian Saucer Investigation members are among them—“saucers” are something more than mere fantasy. To them, the strange objects reported in our skies from time to time are something that has got to be explained away.
However sceptical we may be of these things, it is a fact—admitted by scientific experts—that their explanation lies in no known natural phenomena. But that, of course, is not by any means another way of saying they are controlled vehicles from outer space.

THE PRESIDENT OF CIVILIAN SAUCER INVESTIGATION, Mr H. H. Fulton, points out the flight path of mysterious blue objects reported to have flown the length of the South Island on the night of December 6, 1952. On the same night, similar objects were reported in the sky over the North Island.
