Editorial #4: SAUCERS, SPACE & SCIENCE
By Gene Duplantier
Gene Duplantier, the editor, reflects on the origins of his publication, 'SAUCERS, SPACE & SCIENCE' (SS&S). He recalls a wave of saucer sightings in 1957 across the U.S. and Canada. At that time, he observed a lack of UFO bulletins in Canada, while the U.S. and other countries had organizations to address the phenomenon. Feeling it was his responsibility to initiate efforts, Duplantier started SS&S in November 1957 to report on sightings and related phenomena.
The editorial highlights that SS&S is now in its sixth year of operation, reporting facts gathered from numerous sources. The publication aims to be a comprehensive resource, including Fortean items, space humor, monster stories, ghost tales, and listings of new space bulletins, movies, and records. It also features articles by well-known writers in the UFO field, positioning itself as one of the leading UFO periodicals.
Information is provided for individuals interested in subscribing to 'SAUCERS, SPACE & SCIENCE'. They are directed to write to Gene Duplantier at 23 Shetland Street, WILLOWDALE, Ontario, Canada. The cost for sample copies is 35 cents each. A subscription for 3 issues is $1, and for 6 issues, it is $2. Orders are promised to be processed and mailed promptly.
