Key Articles and Reports

Sudbury Gravel Pit Sighting (CE1)

The issue begins with a report of a sighting that occurred at 2:30 a.m. on a Sunday in the summer of 1972, at a gravel pit in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. Two observers, Mr. L.J. (25, an operator for Inco, Ltd. with a grade 10 education) and his girlfriend, witnessed an object that looked like a bright mass of light, described as almost fluorescent, which turned on and off. The object hovered in the pit for an estimated 15 minutes. The weather was calm, with no wind and no moon visible. The light illuminated the tree line around the gravel pit. Mr. L.J. expressed a desire to have another sighting. This was the observer's first sighting.

U.S. Military Intelligence Classifies UFO's

This section details an interview conducted by Wilbert B. Smith with Dr. Robert I. Sarbacker, former Dean of the Graduate School at Georgia Tech. and executive of National Science Laboratories, Inc. The interview, which took place on September 15, 1950, revealed that the subject of flying saucers is classified by the U.S. government two points higher than H-bomb secrets. Dr. Sarbacker confirmed that saucers do exist and that their origin is not from Earth, though their performance on magnetic principles could not be duplicated. He stated that information could be exchanged if one were cleared through the Defense Department.

Investigation of Multiple Abduction Incidents

This is a significant investigative report by CUFORN's Co-Directors: Lawrence J. (Larry) Fenwick, Harry Tokarz, and Joseph Muskat. The article details the investigation into a series of incidents involving a man identified as 'Jack T.', who was 27 years old in 1982. Jack T. reported experiencing missing time after reading Budd Hopkins' book 'Missing Time'. He underwent three regressive hypnosis sessions under Dr. Aphrodite Clamar in New York City. Following these sessions, CUFORN's Co-Directors interviewed Jack for seven hours on July 17, 1982. Jack T. is described as intelligent, stable, subdued, honest, and slightly nervous, recently separated from his wife, an only child, and left-handed.

#### Early Encounters

The series of events for Jack T. began in 1957 when he was two years old. Other incidents occurred in 1959, 1961, 1964 or 1965, 1969, October 16, 1971, and 1976. Four of these incidents took place in the St. Catharines area, while the 1957 and 1959 events were in the Owen Sound district near Georgian Bay. The location of the 1961 event is unknown.

#### Hypnosis Resumed in Toronto

On July 20, Harry Tokarz contacted Dr. Susan Schulman, an M.D. and behavioral therapist specializing in hypnotherapy. She conducted sessions with Jack T., starting with a preconditioning session on July 24, followed by a session on August 7. The August 7 session brought out the first event from the summer of 1957. Jack, as a child, was sent on an errand to a store and encountered a small, silver-suited humanoid and a silver saucer-shaped object. The humanoid identified it as a 'space ship' and had grayish hands with funny-looking fingers and big black eyes. Jack was taken inside the craft, where he saw a film being run on a wall screen. He was placed on a table, and his mind was examined using a computer device. He was told it was a test. He also recalled an incident from about two years later (around 1959) in Owen Sound, where something shot out from behind the couch and painlessly drew blood from his ankle.

#### The Rejection and the Museum Dreams

On September 18, Jack and his father, Bill, underwent a hypnosis session. Bill had previously reported an incident from 1961 where he was confronted by four-foot-tall humanoids while driving with young Jack. During the hypnosis, Bill recalled being told by the humanoids, "I know how to deal with them." He experienced a 'block' when brought to a 'black, shiny mirror-like entrance to the UFO' and cried, stating he was rejected for a 'mission' that had already been programmed into him. Bill has since had vivid dreams of a 'museum of time' where he saw various technological devices from the early 1900s to the future.

#### The Black Cadillac at Twelve Mile Creek

This incident, recalled from hypnotic trances on July 24 and 31, 1982, occurred in the summer of 1964 or 1965, when Jack was nine or ten years old, near St. Catharines. Jack and his friend Jim Voss were playing when they were approached by a humanoid who mentally asked them to follow him to see something interesting. They were led to a nearby garage and maneuvered into a 'used, four-door, black Cadillac automobile'. Inside the plush interior, they saw two humanoids in the front. The car drove to a swampy area near the Sea Cadets building, where they emerged and were shown a large, metallic, disc-shaped object on the ground. They were taken inside the dimly-lit craft and placed on cots. Jack saw computer consoles and couches. They were made to drink a liquid that made them drowsy. Instruments probed their bodies, and they saw a screen with unintelligible figures. They were told to forget everything. The boys were then driven back to the garage area. Jack remembered two shorter humanoids inside the craft, wearing light silvery blue uniforms with black belts.

#### Bigfoot and a Possible Implant

Another incident recalled by Jack involved an encounter when he was 14 in 1969, with his friend Ken Johnson, in the Short Hills conservation area. They were picked up by a large Bigfoot-type creature and taken aboard a landed object. A 'Type I' humanoid informed them that Bigfeet are used for heavy lifting on Earth. The boys observed the Bigfoot sitting on a chair, with wires on its head connected to a device, suggesting programming. Jack also saw Ken on an operating table with blood issuing from his ear and temple, surrounded by humanoids dressed as doctors, leading Jack to believe an implant was placed in Ken's head, and possibly in his own.

#### Illness, Death and a Warning Affect Researchers

This section notes a series of seemingly unrelated problems that began for Jack on August 21, the day he arrived for hypnosis, and ended on September 18. Jack's grandmother died on August 21. Jack's father was attacked by a metaphysical entity clothed in black, leaving a black mark on his chest. During hypnosis, Jack described the exact location of a party his band played at on the night of a 'Van incident' (described later). The doctor noted insecurity in Jack, who was frustrated by his inability to prove incidents. Larry Fenwick received two disturbing phone calls and learned his wife had cancer, which was later eliminated through treatment. Harry and Sandy also faced litigation with a marketing company.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are UFO sightings, alien encounters, and abduction experiences, with a strong focus on the use of regressive hypnosis as a tool for investigation. The publication also highlights the perceived secrecy surrounding UFO phenomena within military and governmental circles. The editorial stance appears to be one of serious investigation into these claims, presenting detailed accounts and interviews with researchers and witnesses. The inclusion of the interview with Dr. Sarbacker suggests an interest in the official classification and potential governmental knowledge of UFOs. The magazine positions itself as a platform for disseminating findings from its investigative efforts.

This issue of the CUFORN Bulletin, dated October-November 1982, primarily details a significant UFO encounter that occurred on October 16, 1971, and a subsequent investigation and hypnosis sessions related to it. It also touches upon a separate, unresolved incident involving a cancelled hypnosis appointment in 1982.

The Van Incident

The core of the report focuses on an event that took place on October 16, 1971, involving a group of people, including members of a rock band, returning from a party in Vineland Station, Canada. While driving west along the North Service Road near Charles Daley Park, the driver, Tom Irving, noticed lights ahead. He stopped the van, and the occupants saw a 'flying saucer' on the road with panning blue lights, portholes, and a dome shape. The object was described as gray.

The UFO then began to pull the van towards it. Despite the driver's attempts to brake, the van moved slowly towards the object. The van eventually settled on the shoulder of the road, about 20 feet from the UFO. Strange sounds, described as similar to a street sweeper or pneumatic air pressure, emanated from the object, and heat was felt.

Witnesses reported seeing figures coming out of the UFO. One figure, described as having a large head, dark eyes, and no discernible mouth movement, approached the van. This being communicated telepathically, assuring the occupants that they had no intention of harming them and that they would be unable to move or speak. The alien explained that this was for their own safety, as the aliens feared the humans might try to harm them, and that they wanted to conduct tests.

Alien Interaction and Examination

One of the aliens entered the van and, despite initial fear from the occupants, put them at ease. The alien communicated through its eyes and, when looking directly at Jack, was perfectly understood. The alien stated that they wanted to run a few tests on some of them.

Jack described the humanoids as having large heads disproportionate to their bodies, no eyebrows, and small, slit-like mouths. An alien picked up a drum that had been knocked over and examined it. Jack then entered the UFO, describing the interior as cold, black, with curved walls and lit areas. Inside, two aliens were present. Jack was asked to remove his shirt, and he was placed on the floor. He observed a cot and instruments that resembled dental tools.

An alien demonstrated a tool that looked like a Contempra telephone handle, which acted like an X-ray, revealing bone structure through a sleeve. This tool was then used on Jack's arm, with no pain reported, allowing him to see his muscles and veins. A large, silvery light beam from an arm-like machine was shone on his head, and a cut was made near his ear.

The examination room was described as business-like, with aliens performing various tasks. Instruments were used on Jack's skin, and information was collected. Samples, such as hair, were taken and placed in bags. The machine was then taken away.

Discussion and Departure

Before leaving, the aliens asked if the occupants had any questions. Jack asked about the correct religion on Earth, to which the aliens responded that there was no correct religion. They explained that they were from far away, beyond the solar system, and that humans wouldn't understand their origins. Jack felt a spiritual connection with the leader, describing it as a love akin to that for a best friend.

The aliens stated they couldn't test everyone due to time and equipment limitations and selected three individuals, including Jack, for further examination. Jack was given a sense of purpose and told he would be of great help to his friends. As a 'musical souvenir,' Jack gave one of his recorders to an alien.

The 1982 Incident

The bulletin also details a separate incident in 1982 involving CUFORN's attempts to contact Dr. Schulman for hypnosis sessions related to the 1971 case. Dr. Schulman's business had faced bankruptcy, and she had personal difficulties. On the day of a scheduled session for September 11, Jack received a call from a 'friend' of Dr. Schulman stating the appointment was cancelled. Four previous attempts to reach her had been unsuccessful. Dr. Schulman was avoiding contact with CUFORN and was absent from her office and home for three weeks.

Joe and Harry visited her office on September 11 but found it empty. Later that evening, Harry received a puzzling phone call at his apartment from a deep male voice, stating, 'Is the male of the house in? This is official business. Tell him and them to stop what they are doing or else.' The call was cut off, with numbers recited in the background.

When finally contacted two days later, Dr. Schulman claimed she never received their note and seemed disinterested. A session was eventually rebooked through CUFORN's persistence, despite Dr. Schulman having initially urged them to set up the appointment.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The CUFORN Bulletin appears to be dedicated to investigating and documenting UFO/UAP phenomena and related experiences, including hypnosis and alleged alien encounters. The editorial stance seems to be one of earnest investigation, presenting witness accounts in detail, and seeking to understand the implications of these events. The publication highlights the psychological and personal impact of such encounters, as well as the challenges in obtaining cooperation from individuals involved in the investigations, such as Dr. Schulman. The inclusion of a 'musical souvenir' and discussions on religion suggest an exploration of the broader cultural and philosophical dimensions of UFO experiences.

This issue of the CUFORN Bulletin, dated October-November 1982, delves into the complex and often disturbing accounts of alleged alien abductions, with a particular focus on the experiences of an abductee identified as Jack T. The publication explores theories of genetic engineering and mind control employed by extraterrestrial beings.

Genetic Engineering Through Mind Control?

The issue presents a theory formulated by Bill T., Harry, and Joe, suggesting that aliens are interested in eliminating 'corrupt' bloodlines, defined as genetic inheritance of diseases such as cancer or heart trouble. This 'corruption' is to be eliminated from the 'family tree' by preventing third generations of abductees from having male heirs. This is allegedly achieved through mental manipulation, programming abductees to avoid marriage or to seek partners whose family history shows mostly female offspring. If male children are born, they are believed to be the second or third and final generation of males in that family, unless there is no history of serious genetically-inherited diseases.

CUFORN reportedly maintains a list of abductees who have no male heirs, indicating that these individuals may have fulfilled the humanoids' purpose. The humanoids are said to travel from their home planet to other places in the universe instantly, with no barrier of time or distance.

Dr. Schulman's Case Summary

Dr. Schulman summarized Jack's case, stating that hypnosis alone could not definitively determine truthfulness, although she felt Jack believed his own account. She noted that the more detail Jack provided under hypnosis, the less believable it became, suggesting a potential for fantasizing to fill gaps. It was also noted that Jack had read 'Missing Time' by Budd Hopkins, raising questions about potential influence. On a positive note, Dr. Schulman observed that CUFORN had to urge Jack to pursue the case, indicating no apparent unconscious motivation for publicity or grandiose illusions. She speculated that the mental blocks encountered might have been inserted by 'good forces' and cautioned against interfering further.

Comment from Dr. R.Leo Sprinkle

Dr. R.Leo Sprinkle, a psychologist and ufologist, expressed his impression of the ongoing investigation. He stated his familiarity with such observations and found the concept of 'interference through the women' fascinating. He agreed that the phenomenon fosters belief and action but does not yield to logical analysis. Dr. Sprinkle suggested a three-step principle for understanding: become aware, accept, and acknowledge the presence of intelligent beings, then seek to understand one's 'mission' or task.

The "Van" Incident

This section details an incident involving Jack and five or six other individuals returning from a party in a van. The van's occupants included members of a rock band, a teenager, and possibly Ann Marie (Tom's wife) and Sam J.'s girlfriend. The incident, which occurred on October 8, was placed between September and December of 1972 or 1973, later confirmed as September 16, 1971. Jack and Ann Marie recalled the event, but Tom did not want to recall that period. Negative responses were received from two other musicians present.

Summary of Tape Sessions #1 and #2 - Taped July 24 and 31, 1982

This section focuses on the 'Twelve Mile Creek Incident,' which occurred in 1964 or 1965 when Jack was nine or ten years old. While playing with Jim Voss in a wooded area near Lake Ontario, they encountered a humanoid who communicated mentally, inviting them to follow for something of interest and assuring them they would not be harmed. Jack described the humanoid as about four feet tall, bald, with cream-colored skin, wearing a shiny dark blue uniform and boots. The uniform had an insignia on the right shoulder and left front. The creature's head was large, eyes were large and slanted, the mouth was a slit, and ears were small and hook-shaped. The uniform was a coverall type with a black belt, and the pant legs were tucked into boots.

The boys were led to a nearby garage and maneuvered into a 'used Cadillac.' Inside the car, Jack was lured in after Jim. They were driven to a swampy area where they were shown a large disc-shaped object on the marshy ground. After some coaxing, they were taken inside the object, placed on cots, and shown computer consoles. They were made to drink a liquid that induced a drowsy state, after which instruments probed their bodies. Jack saw a screen on the UFO's wall showing a dark spot. The boys were told to forget everything. They were returned to the garage area, and Jack noticed two shorter humanoids, also in silver-blue uniforms, who were described as 'workers.'

The Initiation of Jack P.

A regressive hypnosis session on August 7, 1982, led Jack to recall his first alleged incident, occurring in the summer of 1956 or 1957 when he was two or three years old. This is referred to as the 'stroller' incident. Jack, while on his stroller, encountered a small, silver-suited humanoid near a silver saucer-shaped object. The humanoid identified it as a 'space ship.' Jack described the creature as having silver-grayish skin, 'futuristic-looking fingers,' and big black eyes. He saw them working around the UFO and was taken inside. He saw a screen displaying a film, and the humanoids were watching it. One humanoid placed him on a table, and he observed colored lights and a round shelf. Wires were attached to his wrist and head, and a device was used to siphon information from his brain, described as a test. He saw another screen showing unintelligible figures. He was told the machines were used to examine him to see if he met certain criteria. After the examination, he was returned to his stroller and walked near his house by a humanoid who then departed strangely.

Jack also recalled an incident where something clamped onto his ankle, drew blood, but caused no pain. This lasted less than a minute, and the device then released him. He later told his mother he had hurt himself, and the ankle healed quickly.

The "Van" Incident - Sessions Taped at Dr. Clamar's Office and Dr. Shulman's Office, June 23 and Sept. 18, 1982

This section revisits the 'van incident' where Jack and other individuals were returning from a party. The van was driving along the North Service Road when the UFO appeared. Jack noticed the cold, dark interior of the UFO. Two aliens were present. One told him to remove his shirt. Jack had a recorder with him and was worried. The aliens used instruments, including one resembling a telephone handle, which acted like an X-ray and shone a lighted device on his arm, allowing him to see his muscles and veins. He felt no pain. A big light was shone on his head, and a cut was made near his ear. The machine used was metallic, with various arms and devices, and the aliens seemed to be conducting an examination, collecting samples like hair. They folded up the instruments and put them away. The three individuals present were given an opportunity to ask questions. Sam (Calvin) asked where they came from, and they replied it was a long way away and not part of our solar system. Jack asked if they could have been angels, but did not state this thought directly.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around alien abduction, the alleged manipulation of human genetics by extraterrestrials for purposes of disease eradication, and the use of mind control or mental manipulation. The publication presents these accounts as serious investigations, featuring testimony from abductees and commentary from ufologists and psychologists. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into these phenomena, presenting detailed case studies and theoretical frameworks, while also acknowledging the psychological complexities and potential for misinterpretation or influence on witnesses. The use of hypnosis as a tool for memory retrieval is highlighted, alongside discussions of its limitations and potential for confabulation.

Title: CUFORN Bulletin
Issue: October-November, 1982
Volume: 31-36
Publisher: CUFORN
Country: USA
Language: English

This issue of the CUFORN Bulletin features a transcript of hypnosis sessions with a subject identified as Jack T., who appears to be communicating with his subconscious and extraterrestrial entities. The content delves into the nature of consciousness, alien contact, and a purported mission.

Hypnosis Sessions with Jack T.

The core of the issue comprises a detailed transcript of a dialogue between a 'DR.' (presumably a researcher or hypnotist, later identified as Dr. Susan Schulman) and 'SUB' (the subconscious of Jack T.). The 'SUB' entity claims to control the information Jack receives, withholding details to prevent overwhelming him. It explains that the mission is ongoing and its decisions are made without Jack's full conscious awareness, as some aspects might seem odd to him.

The 'SUB' entity clarifies that the mission might not conclude within Jack's lifetime and confirms the reality of a 'van incident' that Jack has spoken about, stating there are other withheld incidents as well. When asked what was interesting, the 'SUB' mentions a lot of interaction.

Regarding 'Tom', the guitarist and driver, the 'SUB' states that Tom only subconsciously knows about the van incident, as his conscious mind cannot handle it.

The 'SUB' also addresses the concept of 'Makai', explaining it as a name initially given to the alien by Jack, but later adopted by Jack's subconscious. The 'SUB' identifies itself as Jack's subconscious, distinct from the alien 'Makai', and states that the alien comes from "a place way out in space somewhere."

Communication with Jack is described as close, with the 'SUB' feeling much of what Jack knows consciously. The initial contact with the alien Makai happened early in the 'SUB's' life, when Jack was a small child, though the specifics are unclear.

Further dialogue reveals that the extraterrestrial entity (Makai) communicates directly from its eyes, which are described as "dark black eyes" that are "very piercing" and "repulsive." The communication itself was a directive not to speak about the incident, as revealing it could abort the mission, which Jack does not want. The mission is described as having a "definite mission really behind it all" and Jack wants the answer to what it is leading up to.

It is confirmed that the mission is not harmful or unpleasant, otherwise Jack would not be involved. The extraterrestrials have made a promise, which Jack believes because he trusts them, likening it to trusting a good friend. The 'SUB' perceives a "warmth emanating from them" and notes that their mission, while important, is secondary to the effect on individuals.

Regarding interferences towards 'Harry' and 'Joe', the 'SUB' does not believe they were involved, describing them as "strange looking" but not necessarily evil. The extraterrestrials are concerned with the "overall good of mankind" and Earth, even if their methods sometimes cause harm to individuals, as the good accomplished by the mission outweighs the bad.

The 'SUB' explains that many planets have accepted aliens and that there is a "federation of planets" that travel between worlds. It is suggested that Earth will eventually join this federation.

The 'SUB' feels more relaxed after the conversation. When asked about 'astral trips' that Harry and Joe mentioned, the 'SUB' describes them as arbitrary, with the mission's purpose being safeguarded, not the existence of aliens or the incidents themselves. The 'SUB' states that Harry and Joe cannot be told more about the mission, only that they can go as far as they can without determining whether the incidents happened. Publicizing the mission could interfere with it.

At the end of the transcript, Jack T. returns, making a humorous remark about Makai and his own sense of humor.

Other Content

Following the transcript, CUFORN notes that the contents of other tapes were not transcribed at this time, except for a few comments from Jack. A note from December 1982 states that Jack had been experiencing "astral trips" or out-of-body experiences for many years, some of which took him as far as Vancouver, British Columbia.

Page 5 contains captions for images: "Above, Jack T. emerging from a hypnosis session. Below, Jack T. points out the landing site in the Short Hills incident." and "Dr. Susan Schulman, after a regressive hypnosis session. Below, the recorder bag that was handled by the humanoid, and the type of recorder given to the humanoid."

What's Their Purpose?

This section, written by Allen Tough, speculates on the purpose of extraterrestrial civilizations. Tough suggests that older, more advanced civilizations likely exist and are aware of Earth. He poses four tentative conclusions about their intentions:

1. Helpful Guidance: They may intend to help humanity develop and protect it from catastrophe, guiding its goals, morals, and science.
2. Indifference: They might be indifferent to humanity's future, similar to how some human anthropologists or geneticists are indifferent to the development of studied subjects or animals.
3. Playful Observation: Some extraterrestrial species might be "playfully enjoying us" without desiring to influence our civilization's future.
4. Control or Conversion: They could be actively planning to control, conquer, or rule us, or have a "missionary zeal" to convert us to their beliefs.

Tough concludes that these questions are important to study.

A Look Back at UFO Research at M.I.T.

This section reprints a memorandum from February 11, 1957, circulated among four members of the Aeronautical Division of Honeywell Corporation. The memo discusses UFO research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.) near Boston, based on a member's visit and discussions with others. This is presented as the first time CUFORN had seen a reference to specific university UFO research in the United States.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the nature of consciousness, particularly the subconscious mind's role in processing extraordinary experiences like alien contact. The magazine explores the potential motivations and actions of extraterrestrial intelligences, ranging from benevolent guidance to control. There's an emphasis on the ongoing nature of these phenomena and the difficulty in fully comprehending them. The editorial stance appears to be one of serious inquiry into UFO phenomena, presenting transcripts and speculative articles to explore these complex topics, while also acknowledging the historical context of UFO research.
