Those "Flying Discs" Are Back

BISMARCK - (AP) - Those "flying discs" are back again.

Herman Lerdahl, captain of a Northwest Airlines plane which passed through here early Wednesday night, said he saw a "flying disc or other unidentified object" over Billings, Mont., at 3 p.m. Wednesday.

"I don't know what it was," said Lerdahl, "but I do know it was something. All of us saw it." The best identification he could give was that it was "an object in the sky."
