Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 15 - (AP) - Those "flying discs" are back again. Herman Lerdahl, captain of a Northwest Airlines plane which passed through here last night, said he saw a "flying disc or other unidentified object" over Billings, Mont. at 3 p. m. yesterday.
"I don't know what it was," Lerdahl said, "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."
