This issue of The Weekly Research Magazine's Look-See, dated October 8, 1962, is an "immediate release" that focuses on UFO and flying saucer related news and reports.
Seattle Object Mystery
A significant report details the "Seattle Object Mystery" that occurred on September 8, 1962, near Seattle, Washington. An object, approximately 18 inches long and believed to be made of ceramic material, was discovered on a country road. Its substance and origin are unknown. An Air Force spokesman stated they had "no idea as to its significance or source." The object, photographed by the Associated Press, was sent to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, for analysis. Speculation suggested it might be part of an unidentified satellite or connected to a recent UFO "flap" in Seattle. The source for this report is The Atlanta Journal-Atlanta Constitution.
Outstanding Magazine Includes UFO Section
The magazine highlights "SPACE WORLD," described as one of the world's leading "space age" publications, for beginning a regular column titled "UFOlogy" in its September issue. This column intends to cover "both sides of the UFO issue." The first installment included a letter from NICAP's Prof. Charles Maney, a promotional mention of Maney's book (co-authored by NICAP Secretary Richard Hall), other pro-UFO letters, and some "stock" denunciations of UFOs from the Air Force. Look-See congratulates SPACE WORLD for this initiative and provides its source as Space World Magazine, 570 Fifth Avenue, New York 36, New York.
News Notes
Kenneth Arnold's Political Campaign: Kenneth Arnold, renowned for his 1947 flying saucer sighting, is actively campaigning as the GOP candidate for Lieutenant Governorship in Idaho. He is presenting himself as a "businessman" rather than a politician.
Belgian Flying Saucer Construction: In Geel, Belgium, volunteer technicians are working on constructing a "flying saucer." This craft was designed by Belgian inventor Alphonse De Joncker and is powered by two Porsche plane engines. It is anticipated to reach speeds of 180 miles per hour. The source cited is Fate Magazine's November, 1962 issue.
New Zealand Sighting: On the evening of July 9, coinciding with a UFO sighting by Antarctic scientists (mentioned in a previous issue), two New Zealanders, Mr. and Mrs. J.W. Skeet, observed a similar phenomenon. While in their garden, they witnessed "suddenly this blue and white shape appeared in the sky." Mr. Skeet estimated the object's size to be about that of an orange. The overcast sky and dense clouds made the object appear fuzzy at the edges. The source for this report is the APRO Bulletin, 4145 E. Desert Place, Tucson, Arizona.
Call for Contributions: The issue includes calls for contributions to NICAP, with a mailing address provided as NICAP, 1536 Conn. Avenue, Washington 6, D.C. It also requests news items for Look-See, to be sent to 2875 Sequoyah Drive, N.W., Atlanta 5, Ga., with a request to credit Look-See for any material used.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
The magazine consistently covers UFO sightings, mysterious objects, and related research efforts. The editorial stance appears to be one of reporting on these phenomena, encouraging public participation through contributions to organizations like NICAP, and acknowledging other publications in the field, such as Space World and Fate Magazine. There is an emphasis on documenting events and providing sources for the information presented.
