It was smaller than a dime but a good average       size star. There was not sound. It moved on a linear path but not       straight. It went back and forth but still going in the same direction,       wiggling. It was a bright light and had no colors. They were facing       S.W. when observing the light and the light was heading N.E.        ---------------------------------------                Report #: 125        From: UFO INFO SERVICE        Date Sent: 08-06-1986        Subject: RENTON, WA               CASE TYPE: LRS - NL        DATE: 03 AUGUST 1986         TIME: 0330 - 0400 HOURS         DURATION: 05: MINUTES        WITNESSES: TWO        SOURCE: INFORMATION SERVICE         ---------------------------------------        Bob Manil observed what looked at first like a meteor or shooting       star but went at different speeds and would go zigzag. Sometimes       it would come a little closer and get a little brighter but never       close enough to let him see the shape only that it looked like a star.       He observed it for five minutes as it headed north. One other witness       also observed the light for about 30 seconds. Sometimes the light       would come to a complete stop and then continue.        ---------------------------------------               Report #: 151        From: UFO INFO SERVICE        Date Sent: 09-01-1986        Subject: CLAY COUNTY, TN               CASE TYPE: CE I         DATE: 8 JULY 1986         TIME: NIGHT         DURATION: UNKNOWN       WITNESSES: 200 +         SOURCE: CELINA, TENN. (AP)         ----------------------------------------       Residents in this rural town along the Tennessee Kentucky border say       an unidentified object hovered over a local softball game and has made       several other appearances in the past week.               The craft was first sighted by about 200 people at the softball game       on Tuesday, said Donaid Napier, publisher of the local newspaper.       The Clay Citizen.               It was making just a deafening noise...Out on the field, the umpires,       the pitcher, the batter and everybody just stoped what they were doing       and just looked straight up. It got everybody's attention, Napier       said. Witnesses said the object was 250 to 300 feet long, with an       octagonal shape at least four outside lights and a beacon at the center.       It looked just exactly like a jet plane and sounded like it was going       to crash. It was going down at about a 45 degree angle right toward       the river, he says.               Clay County Sheriff's Department officals said they have had numerous       calls about reported sighting since Tuesday. Dwight Goolsby, owner       of a local restaurant said he saw the craft, It had one big white       light spotlight-like on each side shining down on the ground. He said       you could see real good on the ground. It was just sitting there,       then it eased off over the horizon.               Melba Burch, of the Chamber of Commerce, said the craft passed over       her home. It sounded mighty darn low. She said my husband's worked       around planes and I've been around planes all my life. This wasn't       any light plane that came over my house.        ----------------------------------------               Report #: 152        From: UFO INFO SERVICE        Date Sent: 09-04-1986        Subject: BLENHEIM, NJ               CASE TYPE: LRS - NL        DATE: 28 AUGUST 1986         TIME: 2100 HOURS         DURATION: 2 1/2: MINUTES        WITNESSES: TWO        SOURCE: NATIONAL UFO REPORTING CENTER       -----------------------------------------        Witness stated he didn't see any figure, he couldn't make it out.       What he saw was a bright light, an amber colored light up about       40 - 50,000 feet at about 9:00 p.m. He saw it for about 2 1/2 minutes.       Another witness saw the last 20 - 30 seconds of it. The night was       crystal clear and the light was moving real fast, incredibly fast,       faster than a fighter leaving a vapor trail. He was really amazed       by maneuvers it made and the remarkable turns it made. It was above       them for a while. Made maneuvers half a dozen times. Some were pure       90 degree turns. Seemed to slow down and stop a little, hesitate       and then move and make a turn. Made zigzags. First came from north       and went south then went west and hovered then moved few zigzags and       then as it came towards then it made really sharp turn then headed       back toward west and out of sight. Maintained the same color the       whole time.        ----------------------------------------               Report #: 153        From: UFO INFO SERVICE        Date Sent: 09-04-1986        Subject: TALLAHASEE, FL               CASE TYPE: LRS - NL        DATE: 31 AUGUST 1986         TIME: 2086 HOURS         DURATION: UNKNOWN        WITNESSES: ONE        SOURCE: NATIONAL UFO REPORTING CENTER       -----------------------------------------        At 8:26 p.m. witness took his trash out to the dumpster and as he       was walking back he observed a light about twice the size of a star.       It did some amazing things, very quick. It first zigzaged coming       from north then went east stopped and came towards him then bolted       west then east and west again and disappeared. He went in the house       and told his wife and when they came back outside there were two jet       con trails that apparently were following the same thing. Tryed       locally to find out what it was but was unsuccessful. Very sharp       maneuvers and felt that it could out maneuver any jet.        ----------------------------------------                **********************************************        * THE U.F.O.
