Quote from the article:
“NICAP version of the Carnarvon incident:
‘Australian encounter.
During the first week of August, two residents of
Nedlands, West Australia jumped from their
car, fearing a UFO was about to hit it. It was close to 8pm, and Dr Antonin
Kulka, formerly a physician in Europe, and Mrs
Audrey Lawrence were driving near Carnarvon when a flying object dived towards
their headlights. Dr Kulka hurriedly stopped and switched off the lights. As he
and Mrs Lawrence ran to the side of the road, the UFO stopped and hovered over
the highway.
‘It was rocking gently’ Dr Kulka said later. ‘And its
orange color as it dived had changed to a fluorescent green, glow.’
The doctor's bull terrier, usually first out of the
car when it stopped, was crouched in the back seat, hackles up. It refused to
budge.
Dr Kulka said the object was shaped like a ‘squashed
football.’ ‘I had the fear that whatever it was, it was not man-made’ he
reported after the UFO had left the scene.
The sighting appeared partly confirmed by resident Ron
Butler owner of nearby Mooka station. Butler
said that his entire camp had been lit up by a greenish glow when ‘something’
passed over it, though he could not be sure of the time.’
(The source of the NICAP article, which appeared on
page 4 of the Aug-Sep 1965 issue of the NICAP ‘The UFO Investigator’
newsletter, was not given.)
Details from McDonald’s interview:
James E McDonald’s hand written notes (courtesy of Dr
Michael Swords’ file collection) showed that McDonald interviewed both
witnesses by telephone on 4 July 1967. His notes included the following
information, which greatly expands on the NICAP material.”
