The article below was published in the daily newspaper Nouvel Alsacien, France, page 5, on October 8, 1954.
We reported in yesterday's edition that Wednesday evening around 7 p.m., a flying cigar or saucer was seen above the area of the Orangerie. We first thought it was a joke, because these stories of flying objects are lately more and more important.
Many people all reliable, however, confirmed to us that a strange apparition occurred at the said hour in the sky of this district. Is it a flying saucer or a natural phenomenon? The question remains open.
