http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=Le8rAAAAIBAJ&sjid=AQYGAAAAIBAJ&pg=2222,7322200

Quote from the article:
“But when several trained observers (police officers) report UFO sightings at several different sites, and their accounts are remarkably similar, the witnesses are harder to ignore.

At least one policeman said the object made a subtle humming sound as it moved slowly over the areas.”

NOTE: The newspaper date is 16 December 2000.

“3 Prairie Girls Report UFO Landing”, 

5 October 1967
(The Telegraph-Herald, Dubuque, Iowa and
East Dubuque, Illinois)


The UFO sighting occurred about 3 miles north of Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin on 30 September 1967, at around 7:30 p.m., according to the article:

http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=dgdRAAAAIBAJ&sjid=xsAMAAAAIBAJ&pg=1296,715030

Quote from the article:
“An oval-shaped object suddenly appeared and settled just above the surface of the field. There it hovered.

It measured about 12 by 15 feet and rhythmically changed in color from orange to yellow.

A large searchlight appeared to be mounted on the object, which yielded a loud buzzing sound, similar to bees.

As it hovered motionless above the field, an object dropped from the bottom and spun around.

Knickerbocker said Louie Mattie, who operates the Lakeview Resort, reported he was watching television at the time.

Mattie said the screen suddenly blacked out, but no other lights were affected. The screen’s light returned after about 1½ minutes, Mattie told Knickerbocker.”
