A 1977 UFO Contactee Case
The February-March 1977 issue\xa0of the UFO Newsclipping Service, has four articles describing what would become \u201cclassic\u201d UFO cases. One looks into the report (page 12 of the pdf) of nine-year-old Jose Cantu who said he saw \u201ctwo greenish creatures about three feet tall, who rotated on a base instead of having feet, and two \u2018steely\u2019 crafts in which 2 other creatures were sitting.\u201d His drawing showing one of the creatures with only one eye has caused them to be dubbed\xa0\u201cThe Cycloptic Aliens of Harrah.\u201d The other three articles describe two abduction cases that have become well-known, one involving Judy Kendall covered in two papers from California, and one involving three women: Elaine Thomas, Louise Smith, and Mona Stafford covered in a paper from their home state, Kentucky. By this time, abduction claims and creature reports had come out from under the umbrella of contactee reports and the stigma that came with this association thanks to cases such as the 1973 Pascagoula Incident and the 1975 Travis Walton Incident, and news agencies were more open to reporting on them. That being said, there is an obscure case reported (page 3) in the February 2, 1977, Clarkesville, Tennessee, Leaf Chronicle, that has aspects of a contactee case, and the story told by the man who said he had an encounter with otherworldly beings is strange to the point of being ridiculous. Even so, the reporter who covered it wrote about it with a good deal of objectivity and restraint.Read more \u2192
