Kenneth Arnold, the private pilot who made the first report of flying saucers, said today he's convinced there is a definite link between them and the mysterious submarines reported off the U.S. west coast.
In fact, the Boise businessman wouldn't be surprised if they turned out to be one and the same thing.
He agrees with those who think the strange aircraft might be space ships from another planet. And he doesn't scoff at reports that "little men" have fled from alleged crackups of flying saucers in Mexico and Southern California.
"Who am I to say that no such men exist?" says Arnold. "My mind is always open to anything. I haven't seen any of the tiny men myself, but I have letters from persons who have seen them. And they're serious persons, too."
