Quote from the article:

“Mr. Michael J. O’Sullivan, victualler, Quay street, Cahirciveen, while standing in the street, observed a circular object approaching from the north-west. It was revolving rapidly and travelling at a great speed. He described it as appearing to be about 15 feet in circumference. It was rimmed with a halo of white, and its progress through the sky was soundless.”

UFO News Article: “Many See Bright UFO Over Ohio”

16 March 1973 
(Republic, Canton, Ohio)

The Republic informs about a North-Eastern Ohio mass UFO sighting:

http://www.theblackvault.com/encyclopedia/documents/MUFON/Journals/1973/May_1973.pdf (Page 13)

Quote from the article:

“On Wednesday night, March 14, 1973, a bright ‘something’ was in the sky over Paris, New Franklin and Louisville, Ohio, and above Alliance and Canton, and over Homeworth in Columbiana County. It was last seen streaking west from Alliance toward Akron.

Members of the Mt. Calvary Church at Freed Street and Whitacre Avenue (4,8 kilometres (3 miles)) northwest of Minerva were the first to see and report the bright object which was seen during a 30-minute duration, but for just a few minutes by any one person.

It was first seen by some of the church members driving home from a service, as they passed through New Franklin (New Franklin is located 7,8 kilometres (4,8 miles) north-east of Minerva). That was about 9:30. About 20 minutes later the object was seen near the church.

Pastor Maas and his wife said they were sitting in the living room of their home at the church when they saw red and white flashing lights approaching. They thought at first it was an airplane but then noticed it remained stationary. They estimated it to be 1,000 to 1,500 feet away, across a small valley from their home and either on, or just above, the ground.

The Rev. Mr. Maas, who has just returned from a trip around the world and who is familiar with airplanes, compared the craft’s speed with that of a jet and estimated the mystery ship was moving at a speed of 2,000 miles an hour.

Mrs. Marjorie Ferguson, of Paris (located 6,1 kilometres (3.8 miles) west of New Franklin), deen of girls at Calvary Christian College there (the Rev. Mr. Maas is president), said as she watched the lighted object she felt it was not an airplane, and its subsequent movements strengthened this belief.

Pastor Maas doesn’t have any ‘predrawn conclusions’ as to what he saw. He thinks it could be something extraterrestrial.”

UFO News Article: “Close encounters in Utah”

6 July 1997 
(Deseret News, Salt Lake City, Utah)

The article focuses mainly on the 4:30 a.m. UFO incident that occurred on Lennis Gines’ farm in Summit County, Utah in the autumn of 1972:

http://www.deseretnews.com/article/570388/Close-encounters-in-Utah.html?pg=all

Quote from the article:

“And the silent, rotating lights weren’t anywhere near the narrow country lane that meandered past the family’s two-story home and on to the Provo River.

Then she saw a beam of white light shining on the family’s horses, moving from animal to animal.

‘My boy gets in the truck and goes over, and he said he could see a doorway, windows and shadows going in and out,’ Gines recalled this week, nearly 25 years after the event. ‘It was like someone was going in and out on the ground.’ ”

The case involves animal reaction (cows, dog).

UFO Journal Article: “U. F. O. Landing Case In Missouri . . . Reported by Ted Phillips”

(Skylook, No. 66, May 1973)

(Midwest UFO Network, Stover, Missouri)

(theblackvault.com)

Ted R. Phillips writes about a UFO incident (UFO sighting at 10:00 p.m. and presumed UFO landing at 3:00 a.m.) (the case involves TV signals interference and animal reaction) that occurred on a farm in South-Central Missouri on the night of 14-15 September 1972:

http://www.theblackvault.com/encyclopedia/documents/MUFON/Journals/1973/May_1973.pdf (Page 10)

Quote from the article:

“There is no electricity on the Brown farm. Mr. and Mrs. Brown (not their real name) had just turned on their battery powered television, a Panasonic Model, at 10 P.M. and started to watch a program when ‘there started this pulsation. I thought it was spark plug interference. The light was dimmed and then brightened; it would be as though you were adjusting the contrast back and forth- -it would become bright and light- -like that. The image would fade to a gray point. The pulses seemed to come and go in about two second intervals,’ Brown said.

In conclusion, Phillips says: Although no definite object was seen at the site, the animal (dogs) reaction and observation of the flash (for which there is no obvious explanation) leading to the discovery of the site, prompts me to consider this a high quality report. The ground markings were not made by animals. Whatever it was that penetrated the ground, it was a constructed device. One should also consider the fact that this type of landing site fits the pattern found in a number of other reports where a UFO has been seen at the site.”

UFO Article (Blog): “Military tank sighting – April 1966”

By Keith Basterfield, 3 July 2013

(UFOs – scientific research, Campbelltown,

New South Wales, Australia)

Keith Basterfield reports about one of the audio interviews 
Dr. James E. McDonald conducted in Australia in 1967:

http://ufos-scientificresearch.blogspot.com/2013/07/military-tank-sighting-april-1966.html

Quote from the article:

“In all my years collecting and analysing Australian UAP reports, I can honestly say that I have never come across, what is presumably a sighting by the crew of a tank! Plus the date was only some 18 days after the famous Westall incident, which is said, by some people, to have involved members of the Australian Army.”

The UFO sighting by the tank crew (presumably) occurred on 
24 April 1966.

The UFO was sighted over North Street, McSherrystown, Pennsylvania on 30 September 1965, at around 8:00 p.m., according to the article:

http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=VSgmAAAAIBAJ&sjid=S_4FAAAAIBAJ&pg=1191,2525975

Quote from the article:

“The object was described as ‘looking like a bright golden fireball’ at a distance, but as it hovered over the tree about 50 feet from the ground it was seen to have a ‘bright shiny silver color’ with white light coming through its windows. It was described as being 25 to 35 feet in length and about 15 to 20 feet wide, and had a flat bottom with a half-moon shaped body. The object also was reported to have made a high pitched sound ‘like a spinning top.’

The girls said the object hovered over the tree top for about 10 minutes, and for a few minutes during this period completely shut off all its lights. After the object’s lights came back on it shot off in a southwestern direction toward Littlestown where there were reports it was again sighted.”
