FOUR THE MICHIGAN DAILY SUNDAY, AUGUST 3, 1952 E-~. OUTER SPACE ENTHUSIASTS: Staunch Few Hold to Planetary'Saucer' Theories a& k: 1j Primary Candidates Reviewed (Continued from Page 1) I By JONATHAN CROWLEY Daily Space Editor Scientists and Air Force officials have had their hands full this Week finding satisfactory explana- tions for the nation's latest fad- "flying saucers." But their theories, which include atmospheric disturbances, optical illusions and a wide variety of bal- loons, have probably left the die- hard outer space enthusiasts un- convinced. THE STAUNCH FEW believe that the flying "saucers" exist, that they are guided by intelligent beings and that they come either from other planets in our Solar System or from the vast reaches of outer space. They can even suggest meth- ods by which our visitors might have covered the trillions of miles from other solar systems to our own. These include prac- tically everything from old-fash- ioned theories of atomic energy to faster-than-light travel over magnetic lines of force. Those who believe in the "sauc- ers" do so, they say, because of the numerous sightings which have been ,reported since 1947 which they feel have not been sat- isfactorily explained. ** * DESCRIPTIONS of these "Whatzits" have included green fireballs, round orange blobs, in- tricate formations of tiny white lights and even long cigar-like af- fairs with windows and "eerie" internal lighting. This does not include flying washtubs, bananas and other knick-knacks. Observers have clocked them at speeds ranging from 130 miles per hour to 18,000 m.p.h. and have estimated diameters ranging from 25 feet to 1000 feet. * * * SOME spectators have toyed with the idea that these devices are products of secret research here or in Russia, but these theor- ies appear to have been largely discarded in favor of the more spectacular idea of people from other worlds. They give weight to their ar- gument by pointing to the unbe- lievable speeds and maneuvers they say the "saucers" accom. plish. Human beings could not sur- vive such a juggling around, it is pointed out. So far, however, no one has been willing to hazard a guess as to the physical appearance of "sau- cer" crews. Aside from the specu- lation that they were 36 to 42 inches in height which appeared in a recent book, the initiated ap- pear to be waiting until one of these gadgets lands before mak- ing any more predictions. Hass Predicts Bad National Crisis Soon (Continued from Page 1) "Any other view is a cynical one," he added. THE "PROGRAM" calls for collective ownership of land and all instruments of production, with the management of industry completely in the hands of the workers. Hass and his co-workers are aware that should their predict- ed crisis arise, the workers might not follow the SLP, but turn, perhaps to some idealogy such as fascism. That is the reason for all the party's work, Hass explained. "If there were no danger of fascism taking over, I would go fishing and not wor- ry about it," he said. "We do not expect to get big until the crisis develops to such an extent that people are aware of it, but we feel confident that the masses are going to be wakened up," he prophecized. "Our plans are to effectively use our resources to get information to the people. He will pass out 4,000,- 000 copies of the national platform and millions of copies of pamph- lets," he added. Already the SLP has presented three network television shows and three network radio programs. In addition, 80 individual pro- grams have been broadcast or tele- vised over local radio and televi- sion stations. THE PARTY has set a campaign fund goal of $200,000 but Hass feels they will be fortunate if they collect half that amount. However, he pointed out that the SLP programs were well pre- sented in contrast with the Democratic a n d Republican Conventions which he thought -Daily-Jack Bergstrom SPECTATORS-Flying lampshades circle Burton Tower in the photographer's conception of flying "saucers." The picture was made by pasting pictures of lampshades on a picture of the Tower and then photographing the result. Locally, the biggest contest will be for the GOP nomination as prosecuting attorney. Four men, William F. Ager, Jr., Ed- inond DeVine, John W. Rae, and Leonard H. Young are cam- paigning for the office. In the second district legisla- tive vote, Rep. George Meader of Ann Arbor is opposed by Arthur P. Lopshire of Clinton and Nor- man B. Sulier of Erie in the GOP primary. Prof. John P. Dawson of the la wschool is running unoppos- ed on the Democratic ticket. * * * THE REPUBLICAN race for lieutenant governor is between four men: Harry Henderson, for- mer liquor commissioner; state senator Clarence A. Reid; George Welsh, former lieutenant gover- nor; and former state representa- tive David E. Young. The Demo- crats have sent former lieutenant governor John W. Connolly out unopposed again. The GOP gubernatorial nom- ination is being contested by Fred M. Alger, Jr., the present secretary of state; Donald S. Leonard, former state police commissioner; and present lieu- tenant governor, William C. Vandenberg. Incumbent Gov. G. Mennen Wil- liams is running unopposed for governor on the Democratic ballot. The Republican race for United States Senator is a fervid cam- paign between four aspirants; Eu- gene C. Keyes, former lieutenant governor; present Auditor Gener- al John B. Martin; Charles Pot- ter, Congressman from the 11th district; and Clifford Provorst, ex- ecutive secretary to the mayor of Detroit. Only Potter and Martin are entered in the short term con- test. Local level contests involve the battle between Louis C. Andrews, Jr., and Aaron Priebe for the prosecutin gattorney post on the Democratic ticket. On the GOP side, John L. Osborn and Robert W. Winnick are vying for the sheriff position. Of the two less controversial city charter amendments, the first proposes that th esalary of the municipal judge be increased from $6,000 to $8,000. The second would allow the City Clerk 48 hours, in- stead of 24, to present minutes of City Council proceedings to the Mayor.

Amsterdam's Burgemeester Termed Energetic, Popular CHECK THESE SAVINGS M, ill bliir much, much more than STRETCH YOUR BUDGET By BARNES CONNABLE Special To The Daily AMSTERDAM - The Burge-. meest of Amsterdam turned fifty the day we arrived here, but he doesn't look it. Mayor D'Ally, who governs the nearly one million inhabitants of this booming city, is an energetic gentleman who bears the unquali- fied label of "ambassador of good will." THE STOCKY, .ruddy - faced Dutchman would be a huge suc- cess in American politics. He chats with you in his flu- ent, politic English as if he didn't have another thing on the calendar. There is no feeling of having a swift glimpse of a busy executive. Burgemeester D'Ally is a Labor party man, although since his ap- pointment by Queen Wilhelmina, he has been technically non-par- tisan. During the war, he was an important underground leader. . * * * THE MAYOR'S face is known throughout Amsterdam and he en- joys the kinds of popularity and respect usually reserved for roy- alty. While Dutch right-wingers hit the Labor government for cur- tailing economic free enterprise, Amsterdam has seen a large business growth since the war, some of it American, under the encouragement of the Mayor and his able, amiable indus- trial expert Dr. Van Soest. We spent part of an evening with the Mayor and had a chance to measure his esteem in the eyes of Amsterdam's populace. As he drove us to Amsterdam Univer- sity's student festival, people, rec- ognizing the familiar smile through the car windows, stopped abrupt- ly and saluted. At the festival, he introduced us to student leaders, whom he knew on a first-name basis, and dragged us around to the various booths at Amsterdam's tame ver- sion of Michigras. As we shoved through the crowds, the man on the street walked up to him and shook his hand as if it was the greatest moment of a lifetime. stocking shades ..,they're We are moving to new location at 530 South Forest (Just off S.U.) and-must make a clean sweep of all past seasons' stock.
