FLYING SAUCERS IN THE SKY OVER BRITTANY

Quimper. Five schoolchildren from Gouesnach, a small village located about fifteen kilometers from Quimper, claim to have seen two mysterious objects in the sky last Saturday, a little after noon. Annick and Yves Le Bris, Marc Gouesdec, Raymond Madec, and Jean-Claude Belec, all aged 7 to 8. The child who gave the most detailed account was little Annick Le Bris, who said: "The two objects suddenly appeared in the sky, they looked like two upside-down bowls, with a long cigar between them. At times, they moved, and at times they stayed still, only the bowls would spin when the objects moved." The girl also noted that when the objects moved, only the middle part shaped like a cigar remained visible.

The children only told their parents yesterday morning about what they had seen in the sky on Saturday.

FLYING DISCS
in the Sky Over Scaür

Two residents of Scaër (Finistère) reported seeing two mysterious objects in the sky on Saturday evening. One of them, a pink-red disc, was followed by a white disc three times larger than the first. An hour later, saucers making a noise similar to that of a truck were observed by several people. The same noise was reportedly heard again during the night by several other witnesses.
