UFOs in the daily Press:

The French 1954 saucers flap:

This article was published in the daily newspaper La Liberté de l'Est, France, on October 21, 1954.

THE BAKER SAW AN APPARATUS BUT IS IS NOT KNOWN WHETHER IT WAS A DONUT

Huge was the amazement of Mrs Thérèse Grandemange and Mrs Claudine Leconte, who, like each evening descended Monday from "La Bure" where they had been picking up the milk, to see a mysterious machine in the sky.

The said machine slipped by rather quickly, stopped per moments, and took all kinds of colors. Frightened, they went in the closest houses in order to show the phenomenon to the inhabitants: thus, soon, about fifteen people among them Mr. Rémy Marcel, baker, observed the machine.

It was 07:50 p.m. and the phenomenon wandered from West to the East during approximately a quarter of an hour, entrusted Mr. Marcel to us. I did not believe in it, he added, but there is surely something in the story.
