   An offical of the Center for UFO Studies is seeking information from   
   anyone who might have seen a phenomenon similar to one reported by   
   a Lima man.   
      
   Arley Taylor said he was making deliveries to Scot Lad Foods Inc.,   
   1100 Prosperity Road, at 4:30 a.m. today when he saw an orange light   
   in the sky, "that was the size of a grapefruit and darted about like   
   a hummingbird for about 10 to 15 seconds, then disappeared."   
       
   Taylor, 55, of 1030 Cornell Drive, reported the sighting to Lima's   
   John Timmerman, vice president of the Center for UFO Studies in   
   Glenview, Ill. Taylor said he studied the sky as he continued on his   
   delivery route, but didn't see the object again.  Taylor works for   
   Service American Corp., 1251 N. Cole St.   
       
   The light was in the northwest, apparently some 200 feet above the   
   ground, and could be seen against the overcast sky, said Taylor.   
       
   Timmerman asked that anyone who might have seen a similar phenomenon   
   today contact him in writing at P.O. Box 1621, Lima.

        DATE:  10 JULY 1986

   -----------------------------------------       
   WIKIEUP - The Arizona Department of Public Safety said the people   
   were sober and on their way to, not from, Las Vegas.  The motorists   
   reported an an other- worldly light on the western horizon followed   
   their car as they traveled toward Las Vegas shortly before dawn Thursday.   
       
   However, an expert on heavenly bodies said later Thursday that the   
   light probably was nothing more than the planet Mars.   
       
   A member of a group that compiles reports of UFO sightings does not   
   agree.    
       
   At this point, officers of the DPS don't really care what it was.   
   They are tired of all the hoopla.   
       
   A motorist, who DPS spokesman Alan Schmidt said wants to remain anonymous,   
   told an officer that she, another adult and her two sons were driving   
   to Las Vegas, Nev., on U.S. 93 early Thursday when she and her sons   
   spotted a strange orange light that hovered above the western horizon   
   and appeared to follow the car as it traveled north.   
       
   The object was said to "pulsate like a star" and was described as   
   appearing "about twice as bright and twice as big as a star."   
       
   Patrolman Veronica Minch, Schmidt said, had spotted the object earlier.    
       
   "She thought little of it and went on about her business," Schmidt said.    
       
   "Meanwhile, down the road, these people see it."    
       
   The DPS phoned Nellis Air Force Base, near Las Vegas, "to see if any   
   rockets or balloons had been launched," Schmidt said.  "They said   
   they had no activity like that."

   CASE TYPE:  LRS - NL   
        DATE:  17 JUNE 1986

    --------------------------------------   
   On the night of June 17, Karl Brown, Marty Patterson, Joey and Robbie   
   Butler and Terry Guggisberg were in Bon Harbor Hills about 11 p.m.   
   when two single lights similar to stars appeared in the west.  The   
   lights attracted their attention because of the slow movement eastward,   
   which they first thought might be airplanes.  But the lights moved   
   toward Rockport, Ind. and disappeared without a sound, and there were   
   no flashing lights or colored wing lights that appear on planes at   
   night.   
       
   About 15 minutes later another pair of lights appeared in the northwest   
   and traveled eastward.  These lights seemed to pause occasionally.
