A new German weapon has made its appearance on the western air front.
It was disclosed today.
Airmen of the American Air Force report that they are encountering silver
colored spheres in the air over German territory. The spheres are encoun-
tered either singly or in clusters. Sometimes they are semi-translucent.

SUPREME HEADQUARTERS Dec. 13 (Reuter)
- The Germans have produced a "secret" weapon in keeping with the Christmas season.
The new device, apparently an air defense weapon resembles the huge glass balls that adorn Christmas trees. There was no information available as to what holds them up like stars in the sky, what is in them or what their purpose is supposed to be.
