“An 11-year-old Dorchester girl was terrified by a UFO
early Sunday morning (24 April 1966) which she said banged against the house
and rocked her bed. Judy Kalnicki of 1284 Dorchester ave., an honor student in
the sixth grade at the Mather School, woke up screaming for her mother, Mrs. Jean
Kalnicki, who has six other children. Then the youngster sat down and sketched
the ‘flying oval.’
TWO BLACKOUTS
The mysterious flying object was spotted twice by the
Kalnicki family, and two blackouts of electric power occurred almost
simultaneously in the Dorchester area. Police also received calls that UFO’s
were spotted off Boston’s Logan Airport, over South Boston and near Waltham’s
Waverly sq.
Shortly after 4 a .m. Judy was awakened and saw ‘this thing’
outside her third-floor bedroom window.
‘It was so close I could almost touch it,’ Judy said. ‘It
banged against the house as we watched it. I was sitting on my bed, and it
rocked the bed back and forth. Then the lights in the house went out.
BIG AS AUTO
Judy said the ‘thing’ was oval in shape and ‘about the
size of my brother’s car, a 1955 Lincoln.’
‘It had a bubble on top that seemed to be round, with
red lights around the edge,’ Judy explained. ‘It seemed to be made partly of
silvery gray metal with no doors.
‘I always used to say that there was no such thing as
a flying saucer. I thought those people who said they saw them were making it
up. Now that I saw one myself I never want to see one again.’
Mrs. Kalnicki said she had spotted the UFO shortly
before midnight when it floated across Dorchester ave. and hovered outside her
apartment windows.
The mother said it had sort of a transparent bubble
top that was illuminated with a yellow light and circular red blinking lights.”
