Quote from the article:
“A Cambridge (Illinois) housewife and her son were still comparing facts Tuesday about the strange craft they had seen hovering at low altitude late Monday over this village of 2,000.

Mrs. Gilbert Phillis, 35, said she saw the unidentified flying object at 9:45 p.m. Monday (15 October 1973) when she drove downtown.

Her son Gilbert Jr., 17, saw the same, or a similar, craft about the same time as he was closing his father’s service station at the east edge of town.

Mrs. Phillis said the object was hovering  at ‘treetop level’ east of Prospect Street in the business district.

It looked like a ‘car parked in the sky’ with its headlights turned on, she said.

She stopped har auto in the middle of the deserted street, shut off the engine and rolled down the window. ‘I didn’t hear any sound,’ she said. ‘It was stationary.’ ”
