On This Day in Weird, October 9...
1954: A hectic evening for UFOs in France. At 6:30 p.m.,
witness Gilbert Calda and two other children are roller-skating in Pournoy-la-Chétive
when a shiny, round craft lands nearby and a 4-foot-tall being with large eyes,
wearing a dark jumpsuit, emerges. The thing makes "unintelligible
sounds," whereupon the children flee. Thirty minutes later, at Lavoux,
Roger Barrault is bicycling when he meets a humanoid creature 4½ feet tall,
wearing a "diver's suit" with two lights on its chest. Through the helmet's
faceplate Barrault notes "bright eyes" before pedaling off to escape.
He sees no UFO but assumes the entity is an alien.
