WHEN THE SECRETARY of the Rottnest Board of Control (Mr- S. J. Hay ward) saw this strange object in a city street, he thought at first sight It was the Rottnest monster, or a pup thereof. However, at a second glance, he discovered it was a length of copper wire, bent and twisted into all sorts of queer shapes while it lay under the wheels of traffic.

“Saucer” dived on couple. TERRIFIED THEM

PERTH: A green-colored “flying saucer” swooped on two people driving near Carnarvon, and terrified them for almost half an hours.

This was the story told by a 43-year-old Nedlands professional man and his woman companion, who were on a rock-hunting tour that turned into a near-nightmare.

Antonia Kukla of Bedford Street, Nedlands, a Perth suburb, who practiced as a doctor in Europe said the queer object reminded him of a living cell under a microscope.

He and Mrs, Audrey Lawrence, of Nedlands, said they had to slam on their vehicle’s brakes when the flying object divided suddenly towards their headlights at great speed from where they first sighted it a good distance away.

They watched in fear as the object, in dead silence pulsing with a transparent and fluorescent green glow hovered in front over the road 12 miles from Pimbie Station.

they doused the vehicle lights, abandoned the vehicle and watched the strange object for almost half an hour, before it moved slowly away to the west.

Both Mr Kukla and Mrs. Lawrence agreed on the “saucer’s” characteristics:

* It had a definite saucer configuration.
* While traveling, it was orange in color.
* When it swooped silently down towards the car’s headlights it was a vivid orange-red, glaringly bright.
* The color changed to a transparent fluorescent green while it hovered near the couple.
* There was no sound at any stage.

He has two regrets

Mr Kukla checked his monocular lens the following night.
He focused on the stars to see if they gave the same characteristics.
They did not.
he and Mrs. Lawrence returned to double-check the bearing on which they had seen the “flying saucer”
Mr Kukla had two regrets when he told the story of the sighting:
* There was nothing he could have used to gauge the size by comparison
* He had a camera in the vehicle but grabbed the monocular lens instead.
