The 1954 French flap:

NEUVILLY

FLYING SAUCERS WERE SEEN

Our friendly music director saw a saucer heading towards Le Cateau.

Saturday at 9:15 p.m., a resident of rue de la Maladrerie who was in her yard, also saw in the sky a luminous ball which advanced very quickly. She called her husband immediately, but when he too came out, the thing was already gone.

Monday, users of the S.N.C.F. line Busigny-Valenciennes who were on the 6:28 p.m. train (arrival time at Neuvilly station), saw at dusk, on the heights of the Rambourlieux farm, a strange glow in the form of a disc, first motionless, then moving slowly in the direction of Montay.

NEUVILLY HAS
ITS FLYING
SAUCERS!

Would Neuvilly be ignored by the flying saucers and the Martians? No, dear readers.
