Title A name given to the resource Letters to Owens Children Description An account of the resource === Page 1 of 1 # TED OWENS LETTERS TO CHILDREN # GENERAL LETTERS Jeff received week of July 14, 2025 11120 Bermuda Dunes, ABQ. Sent from Lori Rodriguez in Beaverton, Oregon. Recorded by Lewis Barlow July 19, 2025 Majority written in 1965 and 1966 but were a couple of letters from 1970 and 1976. We received several different packages from Lori that contained Ted Owens letters to his children. As this was more of a general package of letters and covered several different dates, for organization purposes we will just call it general letters. Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading. Examples include books, letters, dissertations, poems, newspapers, articles, archives of mailing lists. Note that facsimiles or images of texts are still of the genre Text. Text Any textual data included in the document === Page 1 of 246 August 28, 1970 Mr. Allan Dale Avco Broadcasting Corporation Box 2641 San Antonio, Texas 78206 Dear Allan: It was a pleasure spending an hour talking with you over the phone last night. I hope...that it was up to your expectations. If your program last night with me...is like the others I've had...you'll be deluged with mail as a result of it. Please let me know if this is so. Reason. This letter is a letter of confirmation...that as of last night I hit San Antonio with various powers from another dimension. The only human being in this world able to do such a thing. The object: to heal the people now sick with diphtheria, in much quicker time than is normally possible (especially the children) and to kill and void the diphtheria germs in San Antonio completely, so that the epidemic which is now in effect there, vanishes quickly. The special powers which I sent...other-dimensional powers from another world than our own...should, besides accomplishing the above, create such a healing atmosphere in San Antonio...that many others who are sick and crippled, will get well (besides the diphtheria patients.) After you hung up last night, I communicated with the 51's instantly...told them the situation, and what was needed, then I released the mental connection and made a cup of coffee...right on schedule came their telepathic "capsule"...a whole lot of information given me telepathically in a split-second. I sat down and wrote it out...my instructions from them on how to proceed...then I proceeded. First; I visualized my "Angel box"...a mental picture of a box with the lid opening, then out flows rainbow-like "things" I have named angels, because they are so dynamically healing. I sent 100 of them flowing into San Antonio, which I also pictured in my mind's eye. Thus, the darkened city of San Antonio was covered with 100 of these gorgeous rainbow creatures whose sole duty it is...is to heal and make happy. Next...I visualized the darkened area that was San Antonio at night...opened a mentally-pictured box called "Healing PK" and let the strange forms from it flow into San Antonio, and as they did they changed the darkened area from black into an x-ray white. Next in my mind I picked up "Nature's Telephone"...just like a phone booth...except that the phone is a direct line to Nature. And requested that Nature heal the sick in San Antonio and especially heal quickly the diphtheria-sick, and kill the diphtheria germs, and if Nature might not like to kill them, at least take them somewhere else other than San Antonio. Next I used my disc method on the hundreds or thousands of sick in San Antonio...simultaneously. I.e., instead of 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 2 of 246 4 charging and coding one disc for an individual...I charged and coded an entire city. Instead of a disc, a city. You see with these intelligences...they think to infinity...their powers extend to infinity...it is as easy to charge and code an entire city as a small disc. I could charge and code the world, for that matter. But I will not, until some conditions are met. Next I used time displacement ....by an ODE process I exchanged the year 1970 in San Antonio, for the year 1968 in San Antonio, (when there was no diphtheria, you see?) So that, if that technique works...the diphtheria epidemic that is going on now, will simply vanish and go back in time to the year 1968. Finally, in conclusion...I prayed to God, in the name of Jesus, for Him to heal the sick in San Antonio, and especially the little children. That's a last but not least thing, because once I merely prayed to God, and made him a 'deal' ..and then experienced three consecutive miracles that you'd never believe sworn on a thousand Bibles. I know, and can testify, how very REAL God is and can be. This is the very first time...I've ever broken down and explained the way or the methods I've used...to approach an experiment of this sort, a SI experiment. I have just concluded here in Norfolk...a multiple miracle, involving rainstorms called down onto a drought area, lightning attacks on a certain area, a UFO over Norfolk a hurricane produced and its rains brought to Norfolk...all within the span of five weeks, documented. But I didn't bother to explain how I did it, to anybody. NOW...I HAVE A FAVOR TO ASK OF YOU. I can't get the San Antonio papers here...and it is absolutely vital for my files to get DAILY CLIPPINGS from the San Antonio papers re the diphtheria epidemic, for the next 2-4 weeks. Will you do me this very great favor? Each day scan the papers for your news, and when you see anything at all about anyone being healed or getting well...anything at all about the diphtheria...clip it out and send it to me. I need these badly, Allan, for my files and my work to help people. Incidentally...I'm sorry I interrupted you last night..you were saying something happened that frightened your wife when she was talking to somebody about the SI's...wasn't that it? Please give me all of the details on that, okay? Your new friend.... Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. Wish you'd get some rich Texan to back me...subsidize my work...so that all I could help sick and crippled people, and divert hurricanes. === Page 3 of 246 3/22/79 March 22, 1979 Dear Dr. Miller: It was a pleasure to hear from you. Am a bit tardy, but had to get to Stockholm, Sweden, on a project...and it held me up. Shortly there might be an article re my work in National Enquirer, so you might watch for that. A new hardcover book by Putnam & Son has just been published called "Mysteries", written by Colin Wilson, the famous English author. I feel certain the book would interest you in its thought content. Also it has a nice article on me and my work (he was present in 1976 when I addressed some of the world's scientific greats in parapsych in London...and ended the killer-drought in England.) "UFO Trek" is an excellent paperback book by Warren Smith, which has a chapter on my work (it has also been published under the name of "Book of Encounters." Now, to your letter. Fate must have destined our paths to cross...because your treatise "What Is Thought?" is quite a coincidence in alignment with my mind-training system that I teach a pupil, now and then...the system given to me by my UFOs. There is no other system of its kind in the world and probably there will never be. To explain everything to you...would take a book, so that is not practical. Suffice it to say that the UFOs captured me years ago, modified my brain to make it half-alien, half human...then have worked in cooperation with me to produce over four hundred miracles, all properly documented...some with scientists, some with police, some with lawyers, etc. When I was ten I considered "thought"...and wondered if other humans "thought" in the same manner that I did, or could it be "different" with each human, as each human's fingerprints differ. For instance, in those early years I "knew" what other school kids were thinking, and what the teachers were thinking...i.e., I quite correctly read their minds constantly...and naively assumed that everyone could do the same. Later on, when I found that others could not...this lead me to wonder about the sameness of human thought...or was it? I.e., does everyone see pictures in their mind, as they think? Does everyone "hear" the words that they are thinking...even as they exchange a better selection of word for another in their "mind"? I wondered "what is a 'mind'?" I "teethed" on hypnosis...becoming an expert at the age of 13, and successfully hypnotizing kids in the neighborhood (and almost got run out of town for it in Bedford, Indiana...because of the reaction of infuriated parents when they found out about it.) Long years later...in Ft. Worth, Texas, after an encounter with a UFO on the road with my daughter present...and then the UFOs gave me, telepathically, a full notebook of instructions on how to train the mind of other humans...I began to work full-time using hypnosis to help people, most of whom had been given up by MDs. I got mental patients back to normalcy; got "impossible" alcoholics straightened out; taught female pupils who had had a mastectomy and had excruciating pain to live with...so that they had no pain at all. And so forth. The upshot was...the AMA framed me, had me arrested, fingerprinted, and put on trial...for "practicing medicine without a license." A la Edgar Cayce. The ironical part of it was...that I was working with doctors and dentists at the time! They wanted to appear at my trial and testify in my behalf, but I was told by the DAs office that if they did the AMA would have them blacklisted...so I wouldn't let them, for their own sake. === Page 4 of 246 2 Of course, that was long long years before I began to do "miracles" and become world-famous. What I have become...how I did it...and have proven it...of course makes a mockery of the AMA. I am the only one in the world of its kind...no one else in the world can possibly duplicate my work, and prove it by documentation... and the UFOs have given me the "brain of Future Man", they have told me. In your treatise you state..."by the use of thought per se, actual physical changes could be brought about in the tissues of the body..." I have demonstrated that many many times with my pupils...using a combination of mnemonics (to build a "mental imagery" muscle for them; heterohypnosis; autohyp; plus the priceless "mechanisms" to be "built" into the pupil, given me by the UFOs, using light-waking hyp. For instance...I helped pupils get rid of ulcers quite easily, using my method of "thought" teaching. Horrible burns were healed in nothing flat...using the system. And so forth. (My method of working bypasses the conscious mind and trains the Subconscious mind...which in turn works with the biofield, or life-force field, which surrounds each human body.) "I think, therefore I am," said Descartes..." in your treatise. More accurate, I should say, would be..." I am, therefore I think, and what I think, therefore I become." It is my contention that there is an intelligent power EXTERNAL to each of us, that we draw upon for "thought". In London, listening to a scientist describe his subjects' ability to bend spoons while "using their inner psychic powers" ...I made a note of disagreement. Rather, the subjects draw upon an OUTER power source, intelligent source, to bring this about. I.e., "thinking and thought" need not necessarily stem from the box upon our shoulders, any more than the television picture we are watching on our TV set originates within the set! It is beamed to us from an outside source (as is our radio program, coming to us from that "head" or "box".) I think that the "Unit of Pure Thought" (your term) resides OUTSIDE the meat and bone of each human, and observes and acts through our external biofield, through the energy of said biofield (EM). (This in answer to your comment..."I cannot say where this "Unit of Pure Thought" resides...") When I formulate a mental picture...there is no "thought" whatsoever preceding it. I.e., I can form different and various mental pictures without a thought about it whatsoever...without mentally ordering it up. This puzzles me when I read your material on p. 50 and 51. I.e., with me, in forming mental pictures, no thought whatsoever need precede that action. In your (A) Brain, (B) Mind notation on p. 51...rather, it is my solid belief that our biofield, externally, is in control of and activates the lump of meat we call our brain...and produces our thought and mental pictures, etc. Just as a broadcasting radio station in Portland, Oregon, sends music into my radio set inside my home in Vancouver, Washington. Need all the energy, mechanics, etc., originate WITHIN our body-mind unit. Your paragraph on p. 51, beginning..."When the "Unit of Pure Thought" does assume command..." describes exactly the modus operandi of the ingenious system the UFOs gave to me to help my pupils change their lives and bodies through their own "thought". 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 5 of 246 3/22/79 P3 3 Further down on p. 51, it is stated..."This information is gathered into ourselves from the outside world through all our senses." I.e., EXTERNAL INTELLIGENCE is entering our mind and body, forming our life, as it were, from the total world as we encounter it. Why not, then, an external intelligence and power source located within our body-mind radius, our biofield (re Kirlian camera observations, etc.) acting as our "General" upon the many "enlisted"-man parts of our body-mind combination? If a plant is threatened...without touching it...it reacts. Why? Does it have eyes to see or ears to hear the threat? No, the threat can even be telepathic. Doesn't the biofield of the plant understand, intelligently, and signal the threat to the physical plant...which then activates the scientific machine monitoring the plant? Yes, I think so. Then why not be the same with a human being, except on a much larger, much more intelligent plane? The "brain", as you call it...then is the computer...just the mechanical computer. The "mind", as it is called...would then be our external biofield sending signals to our brain-computer, activating it as you yourself would activate a metal, mechanical computer built into a cabinet in front of you. The biofield selects, arranges and compiles intelligence, then forwards it to the computer-brain inside the body-cabinet for storage or reaction. My contention: The biofield is aware, intelligently, of much more data and intelligence than the body that it surrounds. It works around the clock... just as the heart of the body within its field works around the clock...to assemble intelligence and pass this intelligence on to the physical brain within its field, which either/or stores that material or acts upon it, then this combined action determines the direction and purpose of the life of the body-mind lying within the intelligence/EM/force-field of the Biofield surrounding the Body-mind. Your treatise states on p. 52..."I believe we should all make the effort to strengthen our capacity for thinking and thereby to elevate the level of thought..." and on to the end of the paragraph. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THE SYSTEM DOES FOR A HUMAN (the system given me by my UFOs!) "All" SHOULD make the effort; unfortunately "All" would be unable to make the effort. Again, further down.."You can create an entirely different being..." etc. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT MY UFO SYSTEM BRINGS ABOUT! I can train a Pupil with my UFO system...AND CAN COMPLETELY TURN THEIR LIVES AROUND...to give them a "mind" totally superior to that which they have formerly had...IN JUST ONE DAY! Sincerely, Ted Owens (PK Man) 200 NE 76th St. Vancouver, Washington 98665 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 6 of 246 Jeffrey & "Tippy" November 23, 1976 11/23/76? P1 Doctor Jean Dierkens 34, Rue J. Jordaens Brussels 5, Belgium Dear Dr. Dierkens: As per the instructions outlined in your letter of October 29, 1976... I made myself receptive this morning. Nothing unusual occurred, except that my dog seemed frightened...and threw up all over the living room where I was sitting. But I did have a most unusual dream sequence last night...about 4 to 5 AM this morning. It was most realistic. Two men showed me a black box on a table. They went off and sat down at another table, while I examined the black box. Lifting the lid, I saw a lever on the left side, and a lever on the right side. There were also some small gear-handles in the box...but upon examination they turned out to be false, or dummy. One lever had the initial "P" under it; the other lever had the initial "N" under it. (Just after having this dream, which I haven't finished telling you about yet...I woke up and got out of bed and got my tape recorder and taped the information on it. Just turned it on to refresh my memory...and find only loud, explosive sounds on the tape...very unusual. My voice is just barely recognizable on the tape.) After examining the box...and pushing the two levers...I suddenly knew what it was all about...and went to the table and explained it to the two men. When the N lever is pushed down...which pushes up the P lever... (the box is a "unit of action"...can be expressed in a mathematical formula)... (N for negative; P for positive)...when in action (pushing the symbolic lever in the box) is changed from Negative to Positive, N to P...it creates an energy... releases a Positive energy force...just as a radioactive cloud is released into the atmosphere from a nuclear explosion to have an effect somewhere else on something else...then when the action is reversed...from Positive to Negative... this also creates an energy force and releases Negative energy force. After explaining the above to the two men, they gave me two sheets of paper to study...and I was made to know that the papers were my orders...just as I used to get years ago while in the Navy...papers covering my orders to transfer to another location. I studied the two papers...and found that I was ordered to go to an isolated location where a UFO would pick me up. I was to go somewhere, to some meeting. I kept reading the two sheets of paper over and over...there were two men involved, somehow...typing on front and back of both sheets of paper... and I kept wondering why I wasn't going to go by airplane or ordinary transportation. It struck me as strange that the two men had shown me the black box...yet I had explained its workings to them...as the meaning of it unfolded to me slowly... it was dawning on me how it worked. The "black box" was symbolic for a mathematical equation...i.e., everything that happens in this human-race world of ours is either positive or negative...there is no neutral. Each human being is constantly creating either positive or negative effects...releasing energy; a power force...as that human being takes this or that action. (At this point my tape recorder went blank... although I talked considerably on this. To the effect that the masses of human beings on earth constantly created positive or negative effects...which creates either an over-all positive effect on the human race, or an over-all negative effect on the human race at any given time. But it is never in balance. One of the two effects is dominant at any given time.) That was the first dream...and I put it onto tape...but something erased a lot of the material on the tape. Nothing wrong with the recorder; new battery. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 7 of 246 11/23/76 P2 In the second dream I was talking to someone...and said that "I give my mind and soul and body to God, and reject Evil and the Devil completely." At this point the two men appeared again, in this second dream...and they told me that it wasn't my mind, soul and body to give to God...because I was only borrowing them...and they pointed out, to make it even simpler, that I am "hitch-hiking" through time and space...and my present mind, body and soul is the car, vehicle, that has "picked me up" to give me the ride. "The vehicle doesn't belong to me," they said, "to give to anyone." At this point I awoke and got up and put the second realistic dream onto tape. And unlike the first recording...this remained strong and clear on the tape; nothing was erased. Hope that I haven't wasted your time in this long letter, Dr. Dierkens. Regret that no entity appeared at 11 PM, and that I have only the two dreams to report to you, which occurred some hours earlier. Hope that, by now, the "ending England's drought" file has reached you. Over 100 pages in it. Big thing. friendly yours, Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 311, Cape Charles, Virginia 23310 $\\theta$ Owens $\\lightning$ === Page 8 of 246 March 26, 1976 . 3/26/76 p1. Carl Stone, Research Director, Nutrition Institute of America 200 W. 86th Street, Suite 17A, New York, New York, 10024. Dear Mr. Stone: I have received your February 3, 1976, letter of inquiry...backed by eighteen scientists with varying degrees. That...is ironical. Long years ago...a gentleman by the name of Edgar Cayce was arrested...for "practicing medicine without a license." So was I. Cayce had helped innumerable people...saved quite a few. So did I. When I was arrested...I was so infuriated at the injustice of it that I burned all of the thousands of documents that I had...hundreds of signed, notarized documents confirming that I had healed or saved from death the individuals concerned. This occurred in Forth Worth, Texas...in about 1956-57. I was a "Consultant Hypnotist" and had a sign on my door stating that I was not a doctor or psychiatrist...merely a lay hypnotist...and at my public trial the prosecution waved this sign at the jury and said this sign I had had on my door was a "license to practice medicine." My "practice of medicine" consisted of teaching individuals autohypnosis; also I used heterhypnosis with them to get them started; and then taught them various mental mechanisms which I am sure do not exist elsewhere in the world. I did not touch my pupils; I gave them nothing at all except suggestion. My only equipment was a Brain Wave Synchronizer, which has been described in both Newsweek and the Medical Journal. What happened was...a small group of doctors swung through Texas and gave Texas doctors a quicky course in hypnosis...following which they were designated as "fully qualified medical hypnotists." Ha ha ha. This course, as I heard of it, lasted from 10-20 hours of instruction. I had practiced hypnosis for 14 years by that time. Actively. I knew more about heterohyp and autohyp than these doctors could learn in a lifetime. The AMA decided to make "test" cases out of the lay hypnotists practicing in Texas...Dallas, Houston, and Fort Worth...so I was selected to take the beating in Fort Worth...and a beating I took. The AMA produced a "medical hypnotist" at my trial. Prior, I had both doctors and dentists, with whom I had worked...call me and offer to appear in my behalf at the trial. But a member of the AMA called me and warned me that any doctor or dentist who appeared at my trial would be blacklisted in the medical profession...so I had to reject the kind offer from those MD's who offered to appear in my behalf. Later I discovered that my own lawyer, Shelton, had been bought to "throw the trial" in favor of the AMA. During the years of 1953 to 1957 I had discovered a revolutionary method of helping and healing people. It happened just after a UFO came down to the automobile containing my daughter Lornie and myself. We lost an hour of time. Following that, ideas streamed into my mind...which I wrote down in a book...and still have...and which I put into operation. I had been hired originally by Jack Danciger, an oil-rich multimillionaire in Fort Worth, Texas...to write his autobiography in a plush office in his downtown office building. But at night...I taught pupils this new system that I had discovered, at my apartment...and after long months of working for Mr. Danciger...I decided to quit working for him with an assured future with him...because by that time 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 9 of 246 3/24/76 p2 2 I had dozens of letters from my pupils stating how my system had helped them and saved them. My logic worked thus: with Danciger I was merely helping one man aggrandize himself to the public. With my pupils...I was helping and saving dozens upon dozens. I preferred to go with teaching the new system of healing, so I quite Mr. Danciger. He told me that I was "insane" to do this...but at this time, 1976, I have become recognized as one of the world's greatest psychics...if not THE best...so perhaps I was right and Mr. Danciger was wrong. (He has since expired.) After leaving him, I opened a small office in Fort Worth, and went to work in earnest. The results which I obtained with pupils...were fantastic. One woman was brought in to me by her husband...sent by their family doctor. She came in, foul-smelling and drunk. Her husband explained that she had been through three mental institutions and had had several hundred shock treatments. Nothing had helped. I had this woman on her feet, sober, dressing to the teeth, and mentally on balance...within six weeks. And each year for two years thereafter her husband phoned me and thanked me...said that she had never regressed...that the entire family had become like a new family...and that he couldn't put a price on what I had brought about. (I am having to tell you his now from the top of my head...because I destroyed all of those wonderful records after being arrested.) A Mr. Don Whitehead brought in his wife, I recall, sent by their family doctor...because medicine could not save her. She had a very bad heart condition...was eight months pregnant...and when the baby arrived, she would die. Nothing that the doctors could do would be able to stop it. In the small time left to me, I used a combo of auto and hetero hyp, with transference to her family doctor...plus the mysterious techniques that I had in my Black Book. She had previously had a terrible history of childbirth...with one child she was three days in labor...but after my work she was 45 minutes in labor, and the doctor came rushing out to me and her husband...shook my hand...and told me that miraculously she had been so relaxed by my teaching methods...it had been a perfect delivery...she was quite well, and alive...and that very day she was able to go home...and several days later sent a basket of gifts to me and my little daughter. I could go on and on. Another man came to me because of alcoholism...and while training him I spotted some bad teeth and decided that toxicity from the bad teeth could be a contributing cause to his alcoholic condition...so I asked him to go to a dentist. He said that he had a phobia about dentists, and had not been to one in 14 years. I placed him under hypnosis (light waking), took him down the street to a dentist with whom I worked, the dentist pulled ten teeth, after which my pupil "awakened" and asked when the dentist would begin. This dentist told me that he had known my pupil in school...and asked me how I'd been able to bring him in, because the dentist knew about his phobia. I trained judges, lawyers, doctors, an FBI agent, state undercover narcotics agents (narcs), helicopter pilots, a nuclear physicist from Indiana who had heard of my work and come to Texas, and so on. And they all told me how very much my training had improved them and helped them. === Page 10 of 246 3/26/76 P3 3 But the damned small clique of AMA sharpies in Fort Worth decided that I had to go...because I had no degree. So they bounced me out of Fort Worth, on trumped up charges. (The main witness against me on the stand at my trial...was an outright liar; a brazen liar.) In later years, as I read Edgar Cayce's life history...and his being arrested in the same way and for the same reasons...made me very bitter against the AMA and how it operates and what it stands for (as of 1956-57.) At any rate...when I was arrested and disgraced in Fort Worth, that evening when I went home from the trial I got together all of the years of fastidious records that I had been keeping about each and every one of my hundreds of pupils...and burned them out in back of my apartment, in the alley. And I can assure you, positively and concretely...that was a terrible loss...which mankind could not afford. In the years following...I discovered that I had many other psychic abilities besides healing...and of course, by now, it has been proven out by documented work with scientists and other responsible people. Since you are interested solely in healing...I will tell you that in 1965 a notice appeared in a Washington, D.C. newspaper, that a young female secretary, Brenda Sue Pennington, had been found, days later, in her apartment, with her head crushed in. Burglars had entered, attacked her, robbed her, and left her for dead. I contacted her family and asked permission to try and save her...because the newspaper flatly stated that she could not possibly live...and it asked for donations from people to pay her hospital and funeral bill, because her family was poor. Her family sent the police to come pick me up, along with my daughter Lornie...they got the permission of the hospital plus that of the doctor on the case...for me to try the experiment. So my daughter and I were taken to her hospital room, where she was under police guard. Lornie and I stood ten feet from the girl's bed. I used mental mechanisms given me by UFO entities just for this sort of thing...and from that moment on she began to live. At that time tubes were running in and out of her head and a machine was doing her breathing for her. As of 1974 she was still alive in Rainelle, West Virginia, at her home there, where she was taken by ambulance in 1965. I dropped by there and visited her and her parents. She had never fully recovered...because in crushing her head they had destroyed some of her functions...but she was alive, and living. This case...is on public record. Otto Binder, the prominent author, now deceased, described the case in a Saga article some years ago after checking it out. My main work...during the past years...has been in the area of psi-force. And with UFO's. But psi-force can work on the invisible "life-field" which surrounds each human body. If I had the time and energy now...as well as the means...I could save and heal unlimited amounts of people...by using the Brain Wave Synchronizer, heterohyp and autohyp methods...plus the UFO techniques given to me. But I haven't the time, the energy, or the financial means. If you wish to know more about my dynamic psychic work...contact Dr. Allen Hynek, astronomer at Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois; Dr. Leo Sprinkle, well-known psychologist at the University of Wyoming, Laramie, Wyoming; Dr. Max Fogel, International Research Scientist for Mensa (of which I am a member) at 340 Brighton 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 11 of 246 3/26/76 p4 Nutrition Institute of America 4 Road, Norristown, Pennsylvania; or Drs. Targ and Putoff, Stanford Research Institute, Menlo Park, California. These gentlemen...have been observing my work, through my cooperation with them...during the past years. It is quite safe to say...that no other psychic in the world...perhaps the entire history of the world...has done or can do... what I am doing, in the way that I am doing it and proving it with proper documentation. Now I will add this before closing. Long years ago hypnosis was thought to be, by the medical profession...something akin to palmistry or astrology. Slowly but surely the medical profession discovered that hypnosis was quite real...and could be utilized as a tremendous tool for the medical profession. So they seized it away from the lay hypnotists (crushing them in the process) then they, the MD's, began fighting with the psychiatrists to see who would monopolize it. To me it was vastly amusing...here you had doctors, with a few weeks of training in the techniques and usages of hypnosis, calling themselves "medical hypnotists...with their Boards"...crucifying lay hypnotists who had spent 20 to 40 years in the practice and application of the art... and it is indeed an art. What should have been done, of course...the doctors should have employed the lay hypnotists and trained them along the lines that they wanted...and used them...as today "paramedics" are used in the field by MD's. A fusion, if you like, between the MD's and the lay hypnotists. In like manner, the medical profession today has finally, finally realized that SOMETHING operates behind their limited applications of medicine...to save people...and that it stems from some psychic source. Some paranormal source. So...instead of crushing every "healing psychic" they can find, as they did the lay hypnotists...the AMA should, instead, offer the psychic healers "sanctuary" and train them to suit their AMA purposes and ethics...and work along with them...and continue to study them and their methods. Breakthroughs an discovery of heretofore unknown facts re psychic healing are sure to occur in this manner. It gave me quite a start...to read your letter, and accompanying explanation. Because it is the very first, very first, intelligent approach by the medical profession which I have been able to witness in my entire life... toward a genuine search for Truth...which lies beyond the medical profession... but which can be bridged, ultimately...utilizing teamwork and cooperation between medical scientists and lay hypnotists and lay healers. I know...what most do not know. There is a "life force envelope" which surrounds the human body, and which governs that human body (and brain and soul.) Teeth, of course, must still be pulled; an infected appendix must still be removed surgically, and so forth. But...miracles can be wrought IF the medical profession can learn how to communicate with, and work in tandem with, that invisible envelope around that human body. I learned long ago how to do it (I was always successful in healing stomach ulcers in a matter of weeks, for example...) and I obtained unbelievable results. But I shall never do it again. Once burned by the hot stove of AMA and wracked up traumatically by its crooked machinations...never again. But...the Truth lies there. And I can give you this much information, which took me long long years to learn. I regret that my records were burned. They would have been invaluable to you. All that I can offer you is my current reputation as one of the world's most powerful psychics... and my word in Truth as a former practitioner of the psychic healing arts. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 12 of 246 Nutrition Institute of America NON PROFIT ORGANIZATION 200 W 86 STREET, SUITE 17A "RESEARCH, EVALUATION, DEVELOPMENT" NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10024, PHONE 212-595-9244 ADVISORY BOARD Gary Null, Director Michael Casselman, M.D. Elliot Silverstein, J.D.

For the past two and a half years, the Nutrition Institute of America has been collecting data in all areas of paranormal healing. Our staff members have traveled around the world seeking scientific evidence of paranormal healing, especially in the areas of faith healing, psychic healing and spiritual healing. The Institute's researchers and camera crews have concentrated their efforts on these phenomena in the United States, England, South America and the Philippines. Our experience in this work has proved to our satisfaction that the gulf which exists between the medical community and those individuals and groups which are working with paranormal healing methods contributes ultimately to the harm of the patient. The people most responsible for this gulf are those physicians who take the position that the healing arts are totally without merit and those healers who feel that their approach should replace medical science. The N.I.A. Investigation of Paranormal Healing has left us with the conviction that there is a great need for a constructive dialogue to be established between the medical community and those actively engaged in the healing arts. Certain healers have proven their ability to treat psychosomatic illness, a malady which has been left relatively unchecked since the days of the general practitioner. Other healers, in the Edgar Cayce tradition, have shown extraordinary accuracy in the area of diagnosis. In this, the age of the specialist, doctors -1- 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 13 of 246 Nutrition Institute of America NON PROFIT ORGANIZATION 200 W. 86 STREET, SUITE 17A "RESEARCH, EVALUATION, DEVELOPMENT" NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10024, PHONE 212-595-9244 ADVISORY BOARD Gary Null, Director Michael Casselman, M.D. Elliot Silverstein, J.D.

Best Wishes, Carl Stone Carl Stone Research Director 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 14 of 246 Feb. 5, 1967 Dear Rick: I'm a little late answering your letter. Forgive me. Yes, you would make a fine tennis player. I wish you luck in whatever you do or take up. It is your life..honey...and there is only one you. You aren't like anybody else, dad or mom or anybody. So do what is in your heart to do. But remember, your body works for you. It depends on you to give it a good deal. That is why I want you to stay out of football and boxing. You wouldn't do your body any favors if you got injured. And you'd be getting injured for nothing. I recommend learning judo, if you wish. Anyway, good luck, boy. Glad to hear your school work is improving. You are very smart and bright. All you have to do is...use those brains the right way, the good way, always, and Nature is on your side. Enclosed is a card showing the outfit I work for. Biggest lawyers in Philadelphia. They just took on a new partner, and I work for the new partner. It's real funny, Rick. I type all day long, and don't even know what I'm typing. Wills, Trusts, Agreements, all that stuff. My top boss owns the Philadelphia Bulldogs. I used PK to help them and they beat everybody in '66...won the Continental League Championship. All my work involves two, three, four million dollars deals. I hate it. But I'm stuck with it. I remember telling Lornie in Ft. Worth, when I was helping people..."Ah, Lornie, it's wonderful knowing I'm teaching auto-hypno don't have to work in an office ever again." Ha ha. Well, one of these days..... We aren't tossing knives because Martha can't stand the show biz route any more...three hundred one week...then lose our storage and can't pay our rent a month later. And she's right. And Beau needs a steady place to live. (Not this one...but that will come.) I have discovered the Si's ruin, flatten, anyone against me. Could tell you about it, but would take too long to do it. I have what might be called "Instant Attack" from their mysterious PK world. I don't even have to direct them...they seem to know when a fly walks across the ceiling. Read the last week's True and Saga mags...good Si accounts in there. Or UFO reports. Might not be my Si's. I don't think regular UFO's are my Si's. Got to put Beau to bed now. Write, honey. Love, Dad === Page 15 of 246 Feb. 5, 1987 Dear Lonnie: Why haven't you written for months? Didn't you like your camera? It worked fine for me...sent you some of the pictures. If it arrived damaged, I had it insured for $50. We can have it fixed or replaced. That is a long way to send a camera. I have sent some rings that have gotten to my Sonas broken. And why didn't you answer Irene Kuvela? She is a very nice person. She thinks you haven't written because you think she is a "kook", to quote her. Well, she isn't. Write her, if only to say thanks for writing. She's human. I hope school is going well for you, and your boy friend is working out. I also hope you are being a pal to your little brother, who needs you, and your love, and what guidance you can give him. The Si's just destroyed the Cape spacecraft and astronauts, to put more pressure on the govt. Things are getting "down and dirty." The govt. is so stupid. Write. Love, Dad P.S. Am sending you some pictures of you as a little girl. Keep them, because your future husband and children will enjoy seeing them. === Page 16 of 246 Friday, August 27, 1965 Today Zachow, the terrific scientist, called. He said that during the week he had confirmed the reality of my work..and the entities that influenced my work, and that helped to produce results. He had, among other things, consulted one of the great "sensitives" of the U.S., who had confirmed the reality of the Si's; that they come from far away from Earth; are a different type of "si" completely than any other known heretofore. Also the "sensitive" was struck, and almost over-powered with, a tremendous fear, relating to these entities (which are non-breathing.) The sensitive sensed a tremendous "animal force" about them. (The Michigan monster...?) Zachow said definitely that I am producing all of the phenomena that has been produced this past year. He said that it is own energy doing it, but that the Si's use me as a pin-pointing, or locating, instrument, and they help me with their own power. He said that our very conversation this minute would be recorded by them instantly... either by machine or by mind...he doesn't know how they do it. Z disagrees with me on one point..that if I were to die, then these entities would lose their human contact with the earth-people. He says that I am nothing to them... that they "don't give a tinker's dam" about me...and if they did, then I wouldn't be starving and we wouldn't have been stripped of all our things. Z recommends I deliver a mandate to them...either produce a way out of my dilemma in the next week, I or I should "resign" as their agent. Then he advises me to quit this completely; put it out of my mind, and go back to ordinary pursuits. Such as knife-throwing. I made a point of asking Z if he thought all of the year's happenings were a "figment of my imagination" as George Clark suggested. He said certainly not; that he had ascertained definitely that I had produced the phenomena, something few humans alive could do - that I had powers far greater in scope than perhaps anyone on earth. But that I was using these powers wrong..destructively. He realizes the ultimate aim of mine...to use these powers to help correct the present ills of this earth...but he states that there seems to be something wrong in the way the Si's are going about it. He added he might be wrong in this, but he feels that way about it. He stated I was a "sending and receiving" radio station for the Si's. He stated that their work, rather than being in the electro-magnetic field... had something to do with the Doppler effect (whatever that is) or laser work of some kind. Within the hour, I had my reply for Arnold from the Si's, attached. === Page 17 of 246 Sat. 8/28/65 Dear Lorrie: I enjoyed hearing from you. You definitely are not getting all my letters. Listen -- any letter I mail to "Lorrie + Rick" means both of you read that letter. Get it? Do not hold any of my letters back from Rick. The enclosed copies of letters reveal the current action, pretty much. Send back the signed affidavit from Dave Richman. As usual I had prepared my "homework" for Gemini-5 before last Thursday -- to get fire, human error, lightning, power-failure, ground-controls, etc. Got just about all of it! Stopped the shot. You know my routine pretty well. The "game" is to harass the shoot without killing the astronauts. I've done well. The idiots then shot up OSO Flying Laboratory (remember the OGO I got last year?) -- and it blew up. They never learn. Martha enclose letter. Be good, and mind Pat. Love and kisses, honey -- Dad. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 18 of 246 Monday Sept. 13, 1965 Dear Lornie: Thank you very much for your Love Cigars. I really enjoyed them very much. Hadn't smoked a Bering in ages. Put me in mind of the time when you and Rick were with Pat and me in Las Vegas. She and I were "reading minds" and telling fortunes and hypnotizing people...the works...at the Santa Anita Turf Club. Well, I liked cigars so much that Pat would take these same Berings as "tips" for reading people's fortunes between our two shows nightly. When we'd pack up to go home I would have 20 to 40 Berings in my briefcase. Ha ha! Them were the kooky days. (When I was just hypnotizing people and memorizing magazines...now it's just dull guiding hurricanes here and there and putting the whammy on Gemini-5's.) Am glad to hear that you are going to school on time. That is a novelty, what? You probably even have all your notebooks and pencils, too. Livin' it up. Ha ha. Good enough. Now if you turn out a pin-headed nitwit you can't holler 'foul'. Along with all your books, clothes, notebooks, etc., be sure you have all your marbles. Beau is so fantastic by now he can't be described. He isn't just bright, he's awesomely brilliant. He actually can read minds. Punto. The other night I started to tell him to go get me a piece of toilet paper to blow my nose on, to see if he would understand...he can't talk yet. But I didn't, figuring it would be useless. I just looked at him, and he grinned, and toddled the other way from the bathroom, into the bedroom. He came back, with a proud grin on his face, holding a piece of Kleenex tissue out to me. I hadn't said a word. Last night he read Martha's mind, and it scared her. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 19 of 246 2 He is so damned cute and funny...when there's music on the radio he climbs up on a chair and dances wildly, gyrating all over... with his shoulders, his head, his arms, his hips...then when he thinks he's done a good dance, he claps his hands to show us it's time to applaud...and we applaud. Then he dances some more. But we have to applaud. Affectionate? He gives us hugs and kisses constantly. When I am lying down, sleeping, he'll come over and kiss me on the cheeks a lot, and put his little hand on my cheek and pat pat pat away, gently. We've had a little difficulty with him throwing things...like chairs, small tables, anything he can pick up. Believe me. He takes a kitchen chair, heaves it up, and throws it. Martha is afraid to scold him, because if she makes him mad, he attacks. I think you've seen that...but now he's practiced up. He goes in like a football tackle, grabs a leg, and bites. If you try to fend him off with an arm or hand, he bites that. He does have a spirited temper. Yesterday he astonished me by pointing to his ear, then to the radio. He wanted to hear music on the radio. This is the way he communicates. Am glad to hear that everything is going well there. Here it is the usual chaos. A job today; no job tomorrow. Worked three days last week. No night clubs in town worth spitting at, for my shows. No car to get out with, to find a better place. So, meanwhile, East Lynne. Fudge! You've mastered the course, so you know what it is. But we are making it, the while. Love, Dad 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 20 of 246 in 1964 were controlled...that they found underground by accident? Russia! Yes, a story from Moscow, dated September 30, 1964, AP, went like this: "U. S. AIM WAGING WEATHER WAR". "A Soviet Colonel charged in Moscow Wednesday that the Pentagon has directed United States scientists to work out ways of directing hurricanes toward Communist countries. (Cuba) The charge was made by Col. I. Zheltikov in the Soviet defense ministry newspaper Krasnaya Zvezda (Red Star.) He also claimed...etc." I was greatly amused by this, and wrote to the Kremlin that the U. S. would hardly be running its own controlled hurricanes across the Cape Kennedy area, as was happening at the time. And after Betsy, of course, not running over Cuba...I imagine they know this to be a fact. Betsy would have run over Cuba. All I had to do was keep her in a straight line, instead of turning her. Finally you, the reader, say, "Well, you should be shot. Hanged. Spat upon. Shame on you, if you can do what you say!" Not so, gentle reader. What I have done is harass the U. S. Military, true...but for a relatively short time. This revolutionary weather-control method that I have stumbled upon, which works like a charm most of the time, could be of inestimable value to our country, the United States, in the long long years ahead. If, that is, the Government will ever pay attention and do something about utilizing it. Now, let's see...Betsy...the next hurricane starts with a "C", doesn't it? You, the reader, can have an interesting time on the sidelines now, watching the action. You know the strange duel that is going on. It could even be more fun than watching a pro football game, yes? FK Lynn (The "Rain Maker") Philadelphia === Page 21 of 246 Editor, The Philadelphia Bulletin "I AM GOING TO RUN A HURRICANE ON LEFT" .......... I just finished doing it. This has to be one of the most unusual accounts ever reported...if indeed it does reach print. It is true and factual. But if this newspaper is brave enough to print the story, it must be understood by the readers that the newspaper does not condone the actions taken by the writer; nor does the newspaper necessarily relieve the account as true. As "The Rain Maker" in Philadelphia, however (Jack McKinney "Night Talk Show" and Harvey Clark of Philadelphia Show) I, Ted Owens, assure the reader that every word of this account is absolutely true and accurate. You say it's impossible for a human being to influence a hurricane? Nonsense! I did it in 1964...ran three hurricanes (Cleo, Dora and Isbell) across the Cape Kennedy area. Had Hurricane Gladys almost there in the same spot, but lost control of her at the last minute, and she slid up the coast.) You say they just "happened" to come that way? Nope. Wrong again, friend. In July, 1964, I sent letters to Cape Kennedy Space Center, the State Department, and other government agencies, that I was "declaring a one-man war" on the area from Daytona Beach to Miami...nicknamed "Electro". I told them all that I would run hurricanes into this area, as well as lightning strikes. A few weeks later lightning struck the Titan Missile at the Cape; also struck and knocked out of commission its ground controls. An accident, you say? How? The Titan Missile stood on a lightning-proof pad. NASA has never figured that one out. You see, in 1963, I discovered a revolutionary method of weather control. This method enabled me to make small storms for local areas, or big storms for areas far away, geographically. This phenomenon is under- === Page 22 of 246 serviceable in the context of parapsychology...where time and space are prohibitive. After making storm after storm, without failing, for months, I wrote to the U. S. Government about my discovery...but could get no answer. Imagine what the U. S. could do with this amazing discovery! It certainly would not have to worry about drought! And hurricanes could be used constructively. If you don't think so...New York City could use about three, right now! At any rate, by "declaring war" against Cape Kennedy, I hoped to get the U. S. Government's attention, thus their cooperation in utilizing this rare ability and discovery. But no...even after the Titan lightning strike and three hurricanes; almost a fourth, in their front yard...not a word from the Government. So this year, July 7, 1965, I wrote to NASA and all government agencies thusly: "Just a note to tell you that have begun my PK work now (they know me as PK Man, not "The Rain Maker") as I did last July on...to start hurricanes south of Florida and then guide them to Florida, and across Cape Kennedy etc." Also I warned them of lightning strikes again this year. About one month later, August 4, 1965 (the day I spent four grueling but fun hours on the Jack McKinney "Night Talk" Show, explaining all this) lightning struck the Moon Rocket Pad at Cape Kennedy. I also wrote Mr. Dunn, Chief of the Hurricane Center in Miami, about all this (in 1964 and again this year, 1965 telling him that if I missed my Electro target, southern Florida, then I would take the hurricane away from the east coast so that it would not come up into the northeast coast area. (This just happened with Betsy, if you will think about it.) Now, you have just seen Hurricane Betsy do everything but turn a somersault. All of the newspaper writers have described her as "freakish." But she isn't, really. When she was "born," August 27, she pointed directly === Page 23 of 246 3 at the target, "Electro"...southern Florida. When she got to Guadeloupe Island, about August 28, she swung around to the north. For several days I struggled to get her back onto the target, Electro. August 31 I turned her, but now she had swung too far, and pointed south. So more work on the maps, and along my specialized lines. Slowly she turned, and once more ran toward the target. Then she began to swing up again, out of line with Electro. Too far in a northwest direction that would put her in Georgia, and lose my shot. I worked for about four days to correct this, and drew a "PK line" that I did not want her to cross. She stopped right at the line, and stalled. Now, Betsy had gotten above Cape Kennedy...and she did not want to go sideways at all...so I knew I had to take her backwards, down below Miami, and start her upward again, in the same path I took Cleo, last year. This "putting a hurricane into reverse" I couldn't do last year, although I tried several times. But this year I figured out how to do it, applied the method, and lo and behold Betsy backed up into the Bahamas! (This, incidentally, put a crimp in the Cape Kennedy missile-tracking machinery in that area.) I had drawn a PK line down there, because I didn't want her to go straight south...and she stopped right at the line, and stalled, as before. I did several other things to bring her over into position in front of Miami...and over she went. Since her radius was 600 miles, and the Cape was just a couple of hundred miles from Miami, am sure the Space Center felt her breezes. At any rate, it was a "hit" in parapsychological parlance. At this point Betsy got out of control and went on into the Gulf, having done her duty pretty well in harassing the U. S. Military. I repeat to you, as I have repeated to the U. S. Government...think, just think, what this country, the U. S., could do with this discovery! But do you know what? Guess who knows for sure that these hurricanes 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 24 of 246 August 25, 1965 Dear Lornie and Rick: Ever almost get hit by a City Bus...in the middle of a sidewalk? I did, last night. And it was no "figment of my imagination." Had quit work, and turned down a narrow side-street, walking towards big Market Street. Had gone 1/3 of a block when suddenly I looked up and there, turning at a complete angle to the street, driving up onto the sidewalk, about 5-6 feet from me and moving fast, was a City Bus. Pointed right at me. I jumped...sideways. It missed me and moved on down back onto the street and kept going. I laughed at the incongruity of a City Bus driver being that poor a driver, to go up onto a sidewalk and down again into the street. Then I walked to the Congress Hotel and checked for mail. Then I walked a half-block from the Congress and paused at another tiny side-street. When the light was green I stepped down into the street. Suddenly a big black Lincoln Continental, with two men in front and one man in back, gunned its motor and did a speed-acceleration hard-left around the corner and I leaped back for my life, again. (That made twice in a half-hour's time.) The Continental almost got a colored man just behind me, too, and he yelled, "You sons of bitches...you could of killed us!" He and I cussed the Continental driver quite thoroughly as we walked down the sidewalk. Take the two things...City Bus comes onto sidewalk, pointed at me...and two near-misses within a half-hour...and you have a peculiar series of events, which makes you think. Just before leaving work (before the City Bus) I had typed a message to the U.S. Government that I intend to take my PK findings and research to another nation, another government...which will accept me and work with me in cooperation. Copy enclosed. Another thing. We are not getting our mail at all. It's all screwed up. When I told you an "iron curtain" had been dropped around me, I wasn't kidding, kids. Whatever and whoever it is. Just a note to let you know some of the action. Funny I haven't heard from you re my success with the Gemini shot and Seallab cooperative. I got my hurricane that I've been working for, but there was nothing in the papers until the thing got way up almost to Canada. Pretty slippy. Have sent out 1,000 hurricane-hunter groups, not units. Write, you laggards. Love and kisses, === Page 25 of 246 Monday August 23, 1965 Dear President Johnson: The UFO's (see previous letters) have asked me to pass on this intelligence to you: They caused the power-failure of Gemini-5, of course. Then they could have brought the craft down...and whether the astronauts would have survived is most debatable. Instead, they did something you, personally, could best understand. Politics. Live and let live. You help them, they help you. They turned the power back on. Check with your experts, they tell me to tell you...there is no way that the power could have been restored, as things stood Sunday...unless they, the UFO's had intervened. They have no wish to kill astronauts...to wreck our vehicles...to make us lose face in the world. Their only wish has been expressed to you before, by me, in a long letter. They urge you to consider this, and to contact me here in Philadelphia, as their representative...therefore in a friendly manner...before this coming Sunday...or better still...before this coming Saturday. Respectfully, Ted Owens, P K Man - 1114 Spruce, #33 Philadelphia, Pa. WA 5-3909 (Mon.-Fri., 9-4:15) === Page 26 of 246 Friday August 20, 1965 President Johnson. Dear Mr. President: There is a method by which genuine safety can be obtained from having a nuclear war. That is, a nuclear war will not happen...because a method can be applied so that it will not. Five nations will be fully and completely armed with nuclear weapons: AMERICA (Already are) RUSSIA (Already are) AUSTRALIA (U.S. to furnish) INDIA (U.S. to furnish) WEST GERMANY (U.S. to furnish) (Reason for U.S. to furnish nuclear missiles and ways to shoot them...because we couldn't trust Russia to correctly arm another country for this plan.) Rules: (a) No other nation or country will be allowed to have any nuclear weapons, and if they try they will immediately be attacked by the Big Five. (b) Should one of the Big Five use nuclear weapons on another of the Big Five... then the remaining three nations of the Big Five will destroy the outlaw aggressor nation entirely. This plan was given to me by intelligence from UFO's. Respectfully, Ted Owens, P K Man, 1114 Spruce, Philadelphia, Pa. === Page 27 of 246 Tuesday August 24, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: This is a general letter to the U.S. Government. Since I have received no affidavits from anyone to the effect that I have called any ESP shots in advance; since I have received no communications from any branch of the Government (and I have been soliciting them for a year now); since it is evident that my own Government does not believe that I have the ability to do the things which I have been endeavoring (and have, in fact, been proving) to do - and I think that I have been fantastically successful.......... then it is obvious that the U.S. Government will not lift a finger to utilize my strange powers, or aid myself and my family. My family and I have undergone many hardships this past year, in an effort to prove to this Government that my "PK" system can attack ships, subs, missile silos, control weather, attack rocket-shots, attack planes, and harass military operations. And affect people, too. Oddly, my own bookkeeping shows tremendous success...beyond any Government's wildest dreams...were they to recognize and utilize this strange power for their own. But the U.S. Government is peculiar in that it does not seem to care about strange powers. Therefore, if the U.S. Government does not believe me, and does not care to hire me, or utilize my powers...then the U.S. Government will not mind at all if I take my ESP gifts to some other nation or country. I do not care to submit my family and myself to another year of hardship, for nothing. And with my gifts, I should not have to. Furthermore, I yearn to join a group of scientists who can recognize my gifts and form a structure or framework that I can work within. I.e., when one is a creative artist, or musician...one does not wish to dig coal in mines. And if one is a master of a branch of ESP, no matter what the causal factor...he wants to work actively in that field, no other. My present job ends this week, or next week at the latest. Then I am free to spend weeks looking for another...unless I can find a country interested in my ESP gifts. This being the case, perhaps I can offer my family more security and happiness as well as myself. And that is just what I am going to try to do. I give up on the U.S. Government's responding to my year-long appeal to respond. Respectfully, Ted Owens P K Man - "The Rain Maker" 1114 Spruce St., #33 Phila., Pa. WA 5-3909 === Page 28 of 246 Thursday, August 19, 1965 Editor, The Philadelphia Bulletin Newspaper 30th and Market Phila., Pa. Dear Sir: Enclosed find a letter from my son, addressed to you and the Bulletin. He didn't know what the name of the people were, or the correct name of the paper. Since I brought practically all of the last six weeks of rain into Philadelphia...and the only thanks I got was from a 16 year-old boy, in a letter to Station WCAU...I thought it only fitting that you see my son's letter, and perhaps publish it in your letters column as an answer to my detractors' letters of attack, which my son refers to. My boy knows what he is talking about...for he has seen daddy perform some incredible feats in the weather-control line. I am proud of him for defending me, at any rate. That's my boy. Sincerely, Ted Owens, "The Rain Maker", 1114 Spruce, Phila., Pa. === Page 29 of 246 (Letter from Rick Owens, 14-year old son of P K Man, "The Rain Maker" (Ted Owens) as sent to The Bulletin from Inglewood, California.) "Dear People of the Bulletin: "A few days ago you had some write-ups on the "Rain Maker." Claiming he was a "phony." I am his son, Rick Owens, and I know that out of all his work with rainmaking, he has missed only once, and he has worked a thousand times and produced record storms for that particular city, and for proof he'll be very glad to show you his "newspaper clippings" about it, which gives definite proof. I wish you would print just this small paragraph on what I'm going to say. "Truth About Rain Maker!" A new era, whether people like it or not, has been discovered. You can shut this fear out, if you like, but someday somebody will have to discover it. H. T. Owens, the Rain Maker, is a genius, and he could have become a scientist. Right now he is trying to help bring out this new discovery that is far advanced than just Indian Rainmaking. In a recent clipping a man who was called Barry Rosenburg called him a phony, but this Rosenburg hasn't seen all of the things, thousands of things, he has done in a lot of years, and so had no right to jump to his own ignorant conclusions. Dr. Rhine will state Owens powerI - Owens's ESP. H. T. Owens personally worked under Rhine. I admit $10,000 is a lot to ask, and disagree that he should ask this much, but think what we could do with a man with his powers. Just think before you lynch him up. Rick Owens c/o Shannon 505 S.

Dear Mr. President: There is a method by which genuine safety can be obtained from having a nuclear war. That is, a nuclear war will not happen...because a method can be applied so that it will not. Five nations will be fully and completely armed with nuclear weapons: AMERICA (Already are) RUSSIA (Already are) AUSTRALIA (U.S. to furnish) INDIA (U.S. to furnish) WEST GERMANY (U.S. to furnish) (Reason for U.S. to furnish nuclear missiles and ways to shoot them...because we couldn't trust Russia to correctly arm another country for this plan.) Rules: (a) No other nation or country will be allowed to have any nuclear weapons, and if they try they will immediately be attacked by the Big Five. (b) Should one of the Big Five use nuclear weapons on another of the Big Five... then the remaining three Nations of the Big Five will destroy the outlaw aggressor Nation entirely. This plan was given to me by intelligence from UFO's. Respectfully, Ted Owens, P K Man, 1114 Spruce, Philadelphia, Pa. === Page 31 of 246 Friday August 20, 1965 President Johnson.

You might warn, George, Nasa that this is no time to be sending up a Gemini crew. Consider the number of quick catastrophes the U.S. has had lately: Missile silo explosion. Los Angeles race riots. Bomber that flew the wrong way in Viet Nam and bombed our new Military Headquarters, in an allied village. Loss of face in the world from backing down from the Russians "no pay" in the U.N. (A geo-political tragedy.) ..........all within the past few weeks. Any gambler will tell you, quit gambling when you hit a bad streak, or losing streak, or things are going against you. That is not the time to pull out a new bankroll in the game. And that is what Nasa is doing right now. If anything goes wrong with this Gemini shoot, it will just add to the recent string of catastrophes. My advice, and 10¢, will buy a cup of coffee, George. But there it is, for what it is worth. Ted Owens - P K Man - The Rain Maker 1114 Spruce, #33 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Friday morning at 9 AM, Dave, a psychologist where I work, asked, "Well, ESP man, what's your prediction about the Gemini shot at noon today?" (Friday) I told him, "I'll bet you $10 to $1, ten to one odds, that the Gemini shot will fail." -- Come noon, and lightning (mine) did the shot in. They tried again today, idiots! Read my letter I sent them on Thursday, above. UFO's told me what to say. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 33 of 246 Friday Dear Lornie Thank you, honey, for the three cigars...but do not run yourself short of spending money, just for cigars for daddy, hear? Although I surely do appreciate the thought...and the smokes. Our letters are hanging up...I don't get yours for maybe a week after you send it...and I know for sure that you aren't getting mine correctly, on time. Something is funny, somewhere...and I don't mean with the Shannons. Mebbe the govt. Beau is all right, just cut the corner of his eye. He is awfully sweet, and plays with me constantly. In fact, I can't hardly get him off my lap. He invents games...and teaches me how to play his games with him. The kid is a little wizard. And tough...good lord...if you think he was rugged when you knew him, you should know him now. Martha is afraid to try to put his pajamas on, or take him away from TV...cause he beats up on her. He charges her, and bites, hits, etc. Puts up a damn good scrap. Lots of spunk. Am writing this at work, without benefit of your letter at hand, so will try to remember the points you made. Your letter is at home, and ordinarily I answer it directly. Am doing any old odd job, looking for a way out of my present predicament...which is, stuck in old Philadelphia where few of my talents count for anything. Am sending my novels to N.Y. and trying to make a deal with a local businessman to start my own business, etc. Then...6 months, a year...of saving...and we'll buy a used car and go to some quiet, countryish place...and I will begin my System-teaching, and we will rent a house, or buy one. Rent one, I guess, on sober thought. Am glad your school is beginning, and you do sound like you are having fun. If any earthquakes, fires, floods, typhoons, etc., occur, you'll know that Daddy is playing his little games. I am winding up now to swat the West Coast with a big jar of PK; also to make and steer more 'canes into Florida. Debbie was doing all right; she turned right, like I told her to - then stalled just off the Florida coast, and by the time she went into Florida she'd quieted down into a mere 60-70 mile an hour tropical storm, instead of a hurricane. Anyway, I hit Florida with her. Even if I didn't get a hit on Electro directly and in full force. incidentally...last year I wrote Dunn, Chief of the Hurricane Bureau at Miami...remember? And asked him to name Hurricanes after you and Martha this year. Well, he did...but as usual, your name got misspelled, and it is "Laurie" on the official Hurricane Charts. "Martha" is there, too. So - you have a hurricane named after you. I am working hard to make that many hurricanes for that area. I have gotten 28 typhoons so far in the Pacific. They ran clear through the alphabet, and are starting over with Typhoon Bess working now. Love and kisses, Dad 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 34 of 246 2/14/66 Dear Lonnie - Thank you for your letter, your very sweet birthday card, and the $1.00. We did just as you suggested, and had a party on your $1.00. Thanks, honey. Enclosed is a ring I have made for you. The initials are poorly made, but so are ones carved on a tree. It's a Love Ring for you & Julio (HOO-LEE-O). In case you change boy friends, send it back & I'll put new initials on it! Major Keyhoe was on TV today (a surprise) telling how the A.F. had fired on UFO's, had lots of pictures of them, and had orders from Wash. to cover up all UFO sightings - hide them from the public. He sneered at sightings by farmers, etc., and stressed again & again that only sightings by Majors, Captains, Colonels, scientists - etc. counted. Anybody else was not a "responsible" source and was only after publicity. Ha ha! He's distorted & twisted that way, but at least, he says the AF & US Govt. knows the UFO's are real. He added that the Govt. now is considering changing its policy & telling the US people all about how real the UFO's are. Now, I have two proofs at hand (which I'll send you this week), that the Govt. knows for sure PK Man and his UFO's are quite real - and fear my UFO's. Be sure & read my letters to you, to Rick, and vice versa. Be sure. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 35 of 246 7 Don't worry about C's. You're bright, and you'll get along fine. If you're lucky you'll never need brains (school type). You'll "first" be a sweet feminine girl, who can cook & sew, and make a cute nest for your man & your children. Now to answer your questions. I do not wish to put UFO information in letters - that is, some of it I wish to keep secret. UFO intelligences (Si's) have been in our bedroom. Martha saw them first (like you did, that UFO in Texas that night) then I saw them. No talk at all. We just watched them, with our eyes bugging out. Not one time, but three different times. Baby tried to talk to them, jabbering away & pointing. And the sound they have - never heard anything like it. The Si's do not relay information to me in "talk" or voices, either inside or outside my head. Another way. Explain it to you sometime. Watch Spanish men, Lonnie. Treachery and double-crossing are second nature to them. But they can be charming. I know them well, honey. Listen - in early 1950's I had a Julio Rodriguez at the private military school, Calif. Military Academy - he was one of my pupils. Also his dad was an officer in Nicaragua, I think. Ask him about this. Also, he'd remember Captain Owens. Congratulations on dropping the sorority. Yes, you can tell Pat anything. You're lucky that way. She's a good pal for you. Honey, send important mail to me Special Delivery! Here, people open our mail & steal anything out of envelopes. Love & kisses, Dad. === Page 36 of 246 Congress Hotel THE Bellevue Stratford 12th Broad and Walnut Streets Philadelphia, Pa. 19102 CABLE ADDRESS BELLSTRAT TELETYPE 215 569-9703 PENNYPACKER 5-0700 AREA CODE 215 Dear Lorie -- Hope you two are having fun by now. Open any mail I might get, forwarded, & send me anything important. Right now am trying to get $200 - 300 to buy a car & go up to New Jersey and sell my services as The Rainmaker to various towns & counties having a terrible drought. They are out of water and need... rainstorms. Ha! I figured I could get $5000 per town, or county, fee paid after their rain comes. However, since the area would probably become a disaster area, they might not pay me. The rain PK I worked so hard last November to sock the U.S. with -- is slow in going away, to let heat & drought take its place. But I've set up heat & fire (red) PK, not only over the U.S., but the world, for this coming summer (July -- on.) So you should read about drought all over the place. Nature will use this to make the Govt. more reasonable. Remember I wrote Clark, CIA, & told him all phenomena of Moses' day would now occur to U.S. Govt.? Well, first case of cholera since 1911 just struck -- in Wash. D.C. And since I "hit" Viet Nam with PK -- planes are colliding, Marines are shooting each other by accident -- it's really something. Some day they'll learn. Write. Dad Congress Hotel Rm. 600 12th & Walnut Phila., Pa. AIR CONDITIONED GUEST ROOMS, RESTAURANTS AND FUNCTION ROOMS === Page 37 of 246 Thursday Oct. 28, 1965 Dear Lornie - Thanks very much, honey, for the Bering. The Optimos tear up in the mail, but the Berings don't because of the metal tube...you can send Berings anytime, ha ha. Anyway, 1 Bering is better than 2 Optimos. I smoked your cigar after supper last night, while we watched TV. Beau is so cute and darling...he snuggles up in my lap every night, for hours, watching TV with us. We have a dandy TV set...and can get all the channels, including UHF. Your girl friend sounds cute, and am glad that you have some female companionship and friendship. These "queens and princesses" though... ugh. Their values tend to become warped and shallow. Always remember, "All is not gold that glitters." Every time I see a pretty girl I remember that, and wonder if the girl can also cook good; sew good; has a good heart inside the pretty outside; is loyal and honest with her loved ones; and can she fulfill the main female function, that of giving real love and affection. Few can...but some can. It is my hope that you'll fill the bill re the above, and make some man a happy and successful man, some of these days, after you marry him. Because a man's mate can make him happy and successful in the world...or miserable and a bum. I worked here for a Bureau that rehabilitates alcoholics...and had complete access to their files, and studied the cases rather thoroughly. What I tell you was borne out in the histories of most of these men. Am proud of you for making A's in school. That reflects both brains and hard work. Good for you. A's are never just given; they are earned, the hard way. Am doing a great amount of work at this time with PK. Yes, of course I am in contact with the Si's, honey. I have a 2-way communication with them...and can reach them in seconds. Almost instantly. And they, me. This is nothing "hallucinatory" - but is done through controlled visual imagery. Everyone here has colds...regular epidemic going around. You have heat and poisonous smog there, eh? Keep yourself braced for a possible earthquake, 6 or above on the Richter Scale. That's a tough one. You and Rick have your Angel...and PK protection...therefore even if the houses all came down in LA, you'd be protected. Next week I am sending you a present...you've been so sweet about sending cigars. Am sending you a set of colored pics, the ones taken in Washington, of the bunch. Be on the watch for them. Must go now. Be good, and mind Pat. She knows a lot, even more than you do. Love and kisses..........

Beau liked the birthday card & he thought it was real cute. The picture is very good of you. Thanks so much for it. === Page 40 of 246 January 10, 1966 Dear Lainie, Your letter came today, and we were real happy to hear from you. We had a real nice Christmas. Thank you very much for all the nice presents. The boxes came a few days before Christmas and the birthday box came the same day as the xmas box. You and Rick made our xmas very happy by sending all of the nice gifts. The hair spray holder is very pretty. I put my hair spray in it and it fits O.K. It must have taken you and Rick a lot of time and work to wrap each present. It was real sweet of you both to send us the box. The candy was awfully good too. Beau got a rocking horse. I strung some popcorn and put it on the tree and Beau ate it off of the tree, it was the cracker jay kind of popcorn, anyway I had to take it off because it didn't look very pretty after he chewed some of it off the string. I had an awful time trying to keep him __________ === Page 41 of 246 from opening the presents before Xmas.) I could put them under the tree + he couldn't keep his hands off of them. He would take them from out under the tree + try to open them. Guess what! Vivian said that she was going to get married during the Xmas holidays. His name is Ronnie Massey + he goes to A + M college. She said she is 20 years old + they already have their house + that he had gotten the rings. I can't hardly believe that my baby sister is growing up so fast. I haven't heard from her so I guess everything went all right. Maggie + the family spent Xmas in Texas. They had a two week vacation so they went home during the Xmas holidays. Jerry is taking piano lessons + is doing very well. Are you still writing to Jo Jo? He sent us a Christmas card. We didn't go out New Year's just stayed home + celebrated. Thanks for a lot for all the nice gifts. I will close for now + love you. Write soon. Love Always, Mama + Beau (over) === Page 42 of 246 Tues. Dec. 28, 1965 Dear Lornie: Thank you, honey, for giving Martha, Beau and I such a wonderful Xmas. Your and Rick's gifts, of course, were our Christmas. Want a laugh? I started smoking your fine cigars Christmas morning, and ran out the next day at noon. 14 Berings. Ha ha. Boy, they were good. All of your gifts, wrapped and all, must have been quite a tremendous job to fix up, you and Rick...and needless to say, our little group appreciate that fact. Beau reads his little books at night...has worn his new pajamas now since Xmas...plays with the picture-puzzles and the chalk-slate...he's having a ball. And Martha, was she tickled with her presents! You know Martha. Her feelings are right out in the open where you can see them...and she was laughing and whooping and opening everything in sight. The only thing we missed, was you and Rick. Martha sadly remarked: "Do you know, honey, this is the first Xmas in years we haven't had Lornie or Rick with us?" Well, it was a wonderful Xmas. Have had several vivid, life-like dreams about Pat. Odd. Girl in the apartment next to us came screaming to our door Friday night...prowler grabbed her when she went into her apartment, she escaped, screaming, to our place. I went after him with a handful of knives, but he got away before I could get my pants on (I was in shorts.) Then last night a pane of glass fell on her hand, and cut it...and the boy she lives with was in an auto wreck Sunday, broke two ribs. My boss's wife was in an auto wreck Thursday. Sound familiar? The girl's name is Trina. === Page 43 of 246 December 22, 1965 Dear Lornie and Rick: Just a note to wish you a Merry Christmas, and send you my love. Your amazing box came yesterday...and the packages are under our little tree. I am immensely grateful to you for giving Martha and Beau (and myself) some sort of Christmas, for we are in the same boat we were in when you were with us. You know. That is why we will send you a small gift for Christmas. But the size of our gift is no indication of what good pals we are. Little Beau, when your packages were rolled out by the dozen, got so excited...he jumped up and down and said one of his few words, "Want." When we put the packages up, he had a fit, and tried to wreck the place, as usual. I waited ten minutes until the uproar died down, then went about setting chairs and tables upright. Saturday you will know that your immense thoughtfulness and labor in preparing packages (and expense) will give a lot of fun and pleasure to your still-broke pals in Philadelphia. Bless your hearts. Love, Dad. P.S. I am building a PK capsule for little Jimmy -- and assigning an incorporeal agent to guard him -- as you have. Will send name later of agent. (It is Moinga -- (moy-nyah.) Am doing this because in our box we found an expression of friendship from Jimmy to Beau. === Page 44 of 246 Wed. Sept 22, 1965 Dear Larrie -- Thank you for the two good cigars! Smoked them tonight after one of Martha's fried chicken suppers. Beau just fell and split his head open -- an inch from his right eye. Lord! We're calming him down. Martha is reading to him. He came in to have me kiss it & make it well. Little as he is, when he gets hurt -- he believes my kiss will make it well. And it does. (Along with my secret system.) Received a letter back today I had sent you kids to 505 S. Daryl. Somebody had returned it... not to me but to an office I had worked. And they thoughtfully got it to me. I returned it to you. Wonder how many other letters I've sent -- have been blocked? You wouldn't know. Bet you had a happy birthday. Your school clothes look like fun. French -- ugh! Sewing is dandy, if you learn anything from it. And you're good at it. I pity your driver-instructor. Ha! If he knew what I know he'd sit behind the car. (Still, there is reverse gear -- even that wouldn't be safe! He ha) Yes -- I met the people. They gave us vegetables. But they, too, are chuck-a-block. Am still yearning to meet somebody interesting. Wrong -- power of any kind never gets extinct honey. If people were afraid of electricity, it would still be around. You dig? Love and kisses -- Dad. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 45 of 246 Friday November 19, 1965 Dear Lorrie, thank you very much for the swell cigar. Enjoyed it very much. Also, thanks for the picture you sent. I have it in my wallet, and show it to my friends proudly. You asked about hurricanes this year. I covered this in a letter to you a month or so ago...as you know, my Hurricane Hunter Groups cause hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes, etc. These Groups are powerful "weather-upsetters" well....a typhoon is a hurricane, and this year in the Pacific they ran clear through the alphabet, and had to start all over on another round of alphabetic names. In the Atlantic, just a few hurricanes...but of course, Betsy was worth ten hurricanes all in one. Nothing quite like Betsy. As for the PK harassing NASA...guess you just read about Kris Kraft, the Head of NASA, having a pistol pointed at his head and the trigger pulled...but the bullet misfired. There were 13 top key NASA men on the plane with him at the time, and the plane could easily have been destroyed by the 9 pistol shots that went into the floor. Also, practically every shot that has gone up lately at the Cape, has flubbed. The last big one...the Agena...simply vanished. Disappeared. They are still scratching their heads over that one. That Agena was the one that the Astronauts were going to go up and chase, and try to catch up with. Of course the East Coast power-failure was caused by the Si's. But they had to make up some reason for it...Johnson ordered an explanation within 24 hours. Ha ha! "So they gave him one. But they still haven't really figured it out at all. Supposedly a relay broke down...but there is a paradox in it, in that the relay worked and automatically shut down later. They can't understand that. Also, they don't understand the wide area...the magnitude of it, covered by the power breakdown. Then I would point out that lately there have been a rash of power breakdowns. They just had one in England, for instance. Am glad you are having fun at school. MX I sure do miss you and Rick, and so does Martha. Baby Beau used to having spells of crying...and we wondered why...until we realized it was always after we talked about you in front of him, or showed your and Ricks' pictures. But we are rich in memories...I can still see Beau dancing wildly with you and Rick in the Mangel's living room. And that trip across the U.S. was one of the best things of my life, where I got to know you kids really, and we shared down to rock-bottom. Listen...if you ever get a check sent to me...send it to me by registered letter, because people steal mail out of boxes here. Love & kisses, 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 46 of 246 Wednesday, September 15, 1965 Miss Katherine Raley Secretary Drew Pearson 1313 29th St., N.W. Washington, D. C. 20007 Dear Miss Raley: You ask for a brief outline of the story that I have for Mr. Pearson. That "brief" makes it difficult, because of the nature of the story (which the U.S. Government is hushing up..........has clamped the lid on.) Never has Mr. Pearson ever had a story of this size or importance..........and I will grant you that he's had some important ones. To indicate its importance - Betsy need not have devastated Miami or New Orleans. Gemini-5 did not have to have its many difficulties. The Flying Laboratory sent up recently from Cape Kennedy (OSO) did not have to accidentally explode at its third stage, August 25, 1965. And so on. Am enclosing valued file copies. Please return them. They are a scattered few pieces of my bulging files at home. But you wanted a brief outline, and for my story..........this much material, at least, is brief. Let's start in Philadelphia, to explain who I am, what I do. "A" (see enclosed) explains that I am called "The Rain Maker." I have delivered the only rain in Philadelphia since July (except for one small drizzle.) I wrote the local papers before the storms occurred (one to two weeks before) telling them. Jack McKinny, "Night Talk", WCAU Radio here..........asked me to appear for an hour on August 4 on his radio show. So I made a storm that night, which began when I walked into the radio station at 10 PM and ended when I came out at 2 AM. After my hour, then a U.S. Senator was to follow, then Jack Carter, the famous comedian. McKinny called them and cancelled them - and kept me on the program for four hours, non-stop. The following Friday Ed Harve, "Talk of Philadelphia" radio show, asked me to be on his program the following Monday - and make it rain that day to coincide with my appearance. I told him that I would do my best. The storm which hit Philadelphia that day that I was on his program flooded Philadelphia. Lightning bolts struck scores of homes; hit a power station, and a police radio towers. And so on. I am trying to lead into this gradually, because I have discovered how to do something which no other human has ever done. Mr. George Clark, Central Intelligence Agency, Washington 25, D. C., has an almost-complete file of all my work. Mr. Eastwood, Inventions Department, NASA, Washington, D. C., has much the same. Mrs. Louisa Rhine, P.O. Box 46, Rt. 3, Hillsboro, North Carolina, has an almost-complete file also. She is the famous author-scientist wife of Dr. J. B. Rhine, famed parapsychologist (ESP) at Duke. I spent hours in Washington with "George Clark", and with Eastwood at NASA; also with a Mr. Dunn at CIA. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 47 of 246 2 They had plenty of proof of my incredible work! For instance, see "B". To check this, Jack McKinny, on a six-state radio hook-up, called Mrs. Mangels, who verified the authenticity of it...as well as others. "C" - a prediction sent to Clark, CIA, four days before it developed. Note on the newspaper clip the term "symbolic" just as I described it. Better add here that as far as NASA, CIA, Space Center Cape Kennedy, etc., are concerned - I am known as "PK Man." PK stands for psychokinesis, a parapsychological term. "D" is a prediction made re President Johnson, which came true. Self-explanatory. Made to Hugh Lynn Cayce, son of Edgar Cayce, at A.R.E. at Virginia Beach. My family was travelling through, and we stayed there one day. Enough. Have many more of these in my files. Now, what is so important? See letter attached to "E" - MEMO TO THE PEOPLE OF THE U.S. (This was sent to the State Department, the President, Space Center, etc., in August of 1964. But I had warned the Cape, in early July letters. In other words, I started working with my amazing system...against the forces of the U. S. Government, as an experiment...in early July, 1964. In U. S. News and World Report, Sept. 21, 1964: "Before the hurricane blows fell on Florida in August and September, the State had had only one destructive hurricane in the past 13 years. The northeastern Florida area was hit for the first time this century. After a full of years, why had successive hurricanes suddenly battered the coast?" Why, indeed, Miss Raley. As a matter of fact - why have four hurricanes hit the area of Daytona Beach to Miami, since just last July? Why did two hurricanes hit the New Orleans area...43 miles from NASA's huge Saturn Missile Complex? (I'll answer that in the paragraph following this one.) In today's paper, Phila. Inquirer, article by John O'Brien: "U.S. Spends Millions For Disaster Relief"..."Hurricane Betsy...is the latest in the worst spate of natural disasters on record." (Wrong - they were controlled disasters.) "During the fiscal year from July 1, 1964 (when I began my PK work) to July 1, 1965, President Johnson granted requests from 24 Governors for 29 major disaster declarations...and authorized disaster declarations totalling $85,986,100." "Prior to Hurricane Betsy (billion in damages) since July 1 of this year, the President had to make six major disaster declarations, which entailed disaster allocations totalling $44,661,000. Etc." The rest of the article dealt with results from my "PK" work. Now, please re-read "E", second page of Aug. 25 letter attached. Now I'm getting to the point, Miss Raley - unless you've gone to sleep reading all this. "F" of Aug. 30, 1964, to Space Agency, State Department, etc., is self-explanatory. "G" of Sept. 3, 1964, same. "H" of Oct. 4, 1964. I have successfully guided Hurricane Hilda and Hurricane Betsy to the Michoud Saturn Missile Complex. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 48 of 246 3 "I" of Aug. 31, July 7, and Sept. 11, 1965. .......... .......... .......... .......... .......... .......... .......... .......... There is the general idea. But here is the shocker. Mr. Dunn, of CIA, asked me what the causal factor was in my strange system, or ability. I thought then (months ago) that I had managed somehow to communicate with the intelligence behind Nature. However, on July 8 I found out definitely what the "causal factor" was. See "J". By August 4 they, the UFO's (I call them Si's...for saucer intelligences...) had given me a message, which Jack McKinney read on that four-hour radio show, over the air. See "K". .......... .......... .......... .......... .......... .......... .......... .......... Now, my two teen-agers (16 and 15) have watched me hit missiles with PK, and bring them down. They have watched me make, and guide, hurricanes. Etc. They are: Lorrie and Rick Owens, c/o Shannon, 505 S. Osage St., #3, Inglewood, California. Feel free to check with them in any way, if you wish. I have offered to CIA and the President to have their men watch me guide hurricanes - tape the process and take pictures, if they like (I work on maps.) I have offered to President Johnson to break the drought on the entire northeastern coast (I can do this.) But no reply from him. Easier, I guess, just to spend a hundred million or so of the taxpayers money to try to figure it out. I will make the same offer to Mr. Pearson. If he can put us up (My wife, baby and I) on his farm for the time it will take; then I will break the entire drought on this eastern coast...give New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, etc., as much precipitation as they need to get well....to fill all their rivers, streams, reservoirs, etc. I will do this by making rainstorm after rainstorm...abnormal amounts of rainfall. Also I will guide hurricanes up to New York so that the entire area will benefit from the billions of gallons of water from the hurricanes. Since I have been a court-reporter and an office-manager, it is possible that I could do some typing work at the farm, while I am working on the rainfall and hurricanes. But the rain-making is a seven-day-a-week job. "L" has, on the second page, the main reason Mr. Pearson should try to get this story out from behind the lid the Government has clamped on it. He could thereby save many lives. "M" is yesterday's letter to my children, in California. And the clipped group of documents are in case you are interested enough to read further. There it is, Miss Riley...all true, so help me God. Fantastic though it sounds. The biggest news story certainly of the century...if not further back than that. Think of it...at last man can finally control hurricanes, rain, snow, sunshine, etc. And the system also has other uses. Since the rain which fell on Mr. Pearson's farm in Maryland came from Betsy - then he does indeed owe me a debt of gratitude...for Betsy was "made" by myself. And there will be others. Sincerely, Ted Owens (P K Man, "Rain Maker") 1114 Spruce, #33, c/o Colonial Hotel, Phila., Pa. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 49 of 246 Thursday, Sept. 16, 1965 Dear Lornie... Thank you very much, honey, for the cigars. I smoked them last evening, and enjoyed them. What box from Washington...? You thought I sent it...but I am not in Washington, honey. Yes, I had great success with Betsy...am that much better this year than last...also now am working in conscious collaboration with the Si's. I can see them, write down what I want, they change it into their writing, then into sound...and poof...it happens. But there is so much happening now, with the Si's, that you don't know about...and I can't put into letters.......... They told me just today not to worry about money, house, car, etc., that they are "growing a new brain" in me....containing much wisdom and understanding, like the Bible says...and that my new brain will be worth more than "diamonds, rubies and pearls"...and that what will naturally follow...will be wealth, if I want it. Sounds cockeyed, eh? But all of the facts remain...like a lightning bolt hitting the Moon Rocket Pad...like me guiding Betsy left, right, backwards, then right again...her following, following my directions. The facts remain...thus I know they know what they are talking about! Am glad to hear that your school plans are lining up satisfactorily. Have a lot of fun, and be the good student you were in Washington. You are a good student...and since you have a dear little brother..work with him, gently...leading him, not pushing him...into being a good student, also. Tell him to auto-hyp and tell himself that he can be an A student in anything he wants to be...that he will automatically study hard on that subject. You know what to tell him; you've watched me work with people enough. Seattle might send you a check, one of these days, to send to me. Since I move around, I had to have a permanent address to give them. It will be a substantial check, and of course I need it. As for bills...we haven't any here; as for Washington, nothing. Forget it. I fail to see how it could worry Pat. We only owed a couple of teeny weeny bills in Wash., and they can't do anything out there in California. But at any rate...I certainly am not giving that address to any bill collectors. That irked me. It smacked exactly as of the same tone Jim had when he told me those people didn't want to see us up in San Francisco. You handle any mail that might trickle through to me, honey. Love, 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 50 of 246 Friday, Oct. 15, 1965 Dear Lornie: Thank you for the cigars, hon. I'll smoke them tonight, while watching TV, and think of you. I am doing plenty of things with PK, sweetheart...but mostly I don't care to put it into letters going to L.A. You understand. Some things, okay. But a great deal of it I have throttled down, because of no reaction from Washington. That is, I do a lot now, but am not writing on it. For instance...you either have in your files, or you've seen in mine...numerous letters of warning with regard to President Johnson, these past months. So wham...he lands flat on his back and his GB is cut out, and his kidneys worked on. A major operation, putting him out of commission for a couple of months. But...it's a warning from the Si's, pure and simple. They have him zeroed in...I warned him and the government of it a month ago... so it's up to them if they want to keep ignoring me and the Si's. And if you had been reading the papers you'd have seen aircraft carriers colliding; destroyers colliding; nuclear subs colliding; and planes colliding. Remember my Plane-Sub-Ship PK, started over a year ago...and growing? You'd better believe it! As for my Hurricane-Hunter Groups...they ran clear out of the alphabet in the Pacific...and have re-started on another round of the alphabet...Typhoon C or D was the last one I heard of, on the second round. The HH Groups, you know, cause hurricanes, typhoons, earthquakes, volcanoes to erupt, tornadoes, and floods. They cause, in other words, violent aberrations of the weather and of the earth itself. (Typhoons are hurricanes, but in the Pacific, not the Atlantic, and the HH Groups strike anywhere and everywhere.) As I pointed out in one of my letters to you...they have named a hurricane after you this year, as per my request last year (Laurie, not Lornie, but they never get the name right) and one for Martha, too, as I requested. That Mr. Dunn, Chief of the Hurricane Bureau in Miami, is nice, and evidently has a sense of humor. I am going to issue more HH Groups today, in an effort to produce enough 'canes out of Florida to get you and Martha down on the map in 'cane form. You have a lot of school work, eh? Well, that maykeep you out of mischief, ha ha. But I doubt it. Keep me clued in on Rick's "extracurricular" activity. I worry about him. He needs a strong loving hand to guide him, and there he just ain't got it. Love, maybe, but not the judo-type control I can furnish. He'll be a great boy, a winner, if he gets enough special attention with love attached to it. He's so bright he'll run circles around the Shannons and the Bentleys...and get away with murder. You know it. Lots of love, kisses, and hugs Daddy 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 51 of 246 Copy Rick Lornie Wednesday, Oct. 6, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: President Johnson is not having this operation by accident. If you will glance at my previous correspondence, it spells out the details. I told you that the UFO's had him zero'd in. And they have. And they will continue to have. I have done very poorly these past months; got the newspaper write-up (and so the stock market improved). But nothing has come of it...nobody hired me to break the drought...therefore the stock market is in for a hard time ahead, am afraid. You will see. Sept. 29 two submarines collided off "Electra" (California coast) Oct. 1 two destroyers collided off "Electro" (Florida coast) Oct. 2 two planes collided in Viet Nam. These seemingly separate accidents were not accidents, George...and they were strung like beads on a string...to point out the fact. The UFO's are getting very angry.

Copy Dear Mr. Eastwood: Just a note to tell you that have begun my PK work now, as I did last July on....to start hurricanes south of Florida and then guide them to Florida, and across Cape Kennedy. (1) HURRICANE BETSY 9/'65 - SEPT. 8, "BETSY" HIT ON "ELECTRO" (DAYTONA BEACH TO MIAMI) In other words, the Cape will be target area again. And I learned much last year ... so that this year should be much more successful. Included with the hurricanes will be lightning strikes, freak accidents, sudden storms of less than hurricane intensity, etc. In the event that a hurricane gets away from me, due to an oversight, which happened once last year...then I'll do the same thing I did last year... try to guide it over to the Michoud space complex in Louisiana, near New Orleans. (3) I also may do some work on Houston, Texas. It is my hope that some day someone wise will believe in my rare PK ability, and allow me to proceed with the work that I am now blocked from doing, by the U.S. Government. Respectfully, P K Man (c/o Owens) Congress Hotel, Room 600 12th and Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Lightning Kills Worker At Saturn Launch Pad Cape Kennedy, Aug. 4 (UPI)--Lightning hit a crane used on a Saturn 5 moon rocket launch pad yesterday, killing one man and injuring five others. The dead man was identified as A. Trieb, 33, of Mitchell, S. D., one construction worker was hospitalized and four others were treated and released at a base medical center. A spokesman for the Army Corps of Engineers, overseer of the construction under way here, said the men were pouring concrete on the 40-foot level of the launch complex when lightning traveled down the crane's cables to the wet concrete. Workers standing near the concrete were burned and knocked down by the flash. Rockets Escape Damage in Storm NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 11 (AP)--The huge Michoud plant which builds Saturn booster rockets came through Hurricane Betsy with superficial damage, it was reported Saturday. A spokesman said damage was confined to broken glass and peeled roofs, with no apparent injury to space vehicles under construction. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration facility was shut down Thursday afternoon as the storm approached. LIGHTNING STRIKE!!

The janitor, Anton van Leeuwenhoek, swept out the city hall of Delft in the 17th century, the National Geographic Society says. Townspeople thought he was a little daft because he ground chunks of glass into lenses. They were sure he was crazy when he told them he had looked through one of his lenses into a drop of water, and had seen hundreds of small creatures scurrying about. But Britain's Royal Society was more attentive: Leeuwenhoek had discovered germs. Amateurs have made important discoveries in every field of science. Knowledge of dinosaurs was given to the world by an English country doctor, Gideon Mantell, who liked to pick up fossils; the principles of heredity by an Austrian abbot, Gregor Mendel; oxygen by an English Unitarian theologian, Joseph Priestley, and the Kodachrome color photography process by two American musicians, Lee Godowsky and Leopold Mannes, who experimented in hotel rooms while on tour. Even today, a time of tremendous advances in professional science, the amateur appears in no danger of extinction. There are so many thousands of amateur rocket scientists at work that the American Rocket Society issued a booklet warning them of the risks they run. Only a few years ago an English architect, Michael Ventris, solved a puzzle that had long tormented archeologists -- the decipherment of an ancient language of Crete and Greece known as Minoan Linear B. In the United States, another amateur archeologist, a onetime dishwasher, discovered the remains of Thoreau's cabin at Walden Pond. Other sparetime archeologists were the first to investigate Russell Cave, an Alabama cavern inhabited 9,000 years ago. Two teen-age radio hams astounded the scientific community in 1960 by transmitting signals to each other with radio waves bounced off a satellite. A quarter of a century earlier another ham, Grote Reber of Wheaton, Ill., used his own time and money to build the world's first radio-telescope in his back yard. Horst Gerstenkorn, an amateur astronomer, made computations tracing the position of the moon backward in history and suggested, in 1954, that the moon was a small planet captured long ago by the earth's gravitational field. His work was praised in Science, the organ of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The writer expressed amazement that at a time when billions of dollars and rubles are being spent on government moon programs, "a high school teacher having no other assets than his interest and his free time" could still make a contribution. Some observers believe that breakthroughs in each field of science will often come from amateurs. The amateur lacks the professional's training laboratories, staff, and prestige, but he is free to follow his own interests and imagination; he does not have to worry about getting quick results or losing status in the "publish or perish" world. His very ignorance may help sometimes. The German psychiatrist Hans Berger discovered brain waves because, unlike the experts, he didn't know they were regarded as an impossibility. An amateur can still find plenty to do. Take entomology: The world may support 2,000,000 to 10,000,000 insect species. The professionals have hardly begun to catalogue them, let alone record their habits. An amateur can go to work today in his own backyard. === Page 56 of 246 PK Man - "The Rain Maker" ↓ The Saturday Sermon A Fool There Was By DR. FREDERICK BROWN HARRIS Chaplain, United States Senate Washington--FOOL is a barbed word. When hurled it usually carries a stigma. A fool is supposed to be one unbalanced, unable to render a reasonable judgment. A fool is one who plunges ahead with no regard for consequences, who scorns safety first and who refuses to conform. The old adage declares-- "Fools rush in where angels fear to tread." "The greatest fool," says Shaftesbury, "is one who thinks he knows with certainty that which he has least studied and of which he is most profoundly ignorant." A foolscap on dunces relegated to a corner in the school of life is a fit insignia. But history makes clear that across the centuries a foolscap often has been put on the wrong head. FOOL is often the label pasted on a wise man by those about him who are ignorant and timid. Those that one generation has pilloried as fools have more than once turned out to be the wisest of their day and the benefactors of all humanity. It is literally true that the world has moved forward on the legs of the alleged fools! Socrates was a laughing stock on the streets of Athens because he refused all sensible advice. He was such a fool that he finally drank the hemlock. Cato was held up to ridicule in Rome because the venal citizens of that great capital called him a fool for refusing bribes. When George Stephenson proposed to draw a train of cars by steam at the rate of 14 miles an hour he was regarded as a fit candidate for the madhouse. When Robert Fulton--in whose honor a memorial stamp has been issued in this year 1965--announced his intention to navigate the Hudson River on a steamboat, his idea was ridiculed by men of sense and science as "the silliest that ever entered a silly brain." When William Carey, father of the modern missionary movement, set about sending a group of missionaries to India he was publicly denounced in the House of Commons and his plan was referred to as "the project of a lunatic." Because he "risked the thing" Charles A. Lindbergh, who disappeared over the ocean in a little plane, now a museum magnet for thousands, was dubbed a "flying fool." When he saw a fleet of fishing boats he records, "I flew down, almost touching the craft, and yelled at them asking if I was on the right road to Ireland. They just stared! Maybe they thought I was a crazy fool. An hour later I saw land." Over our 49th state, Alaska, is today a bright rainbow of promise as its marvelous resources are developed. But the statesman who saw its potential greatness and secured it for a song, was on all sides called a fool and the whole transaction was labeled "Seward's folly!" What a volume could be written entitled--Posterity's Appraisal of Men Whom Their Own Age Called Fools! When we thrill, gratefully, at the surgical miracles of today performed in the hospitals of every city, we cannot forget the doctors willing to be called fools even as was Pasteur by the medical lights of his day. When the first abdominal operation in the history of surgery was performed by a country doctor down in Kentucky, a frenzied mob patrolled the house for two hours ready to lynch the "fool doctor" if the patient died. But with a nerve that failed not, and a hand that did not falter, he went ahead. The life of the woman involved was saved. A Poet's Words Today medical science pays its high tribute to the man who dared the fury of a mob to blaze a new path in surgery. All the valiant men marching ahead of their time who by their contemporaries were decked with foolscaps! A poet listening not to the harsh billingsgate of the day, but hearing the appraisal of the long years, wrote-- Give us now and then a man And life will crown him king; Just to take the consequence Just to risk the thing. Paul Suffered, Too Long centuries ago, Paul, the Apostle, who had suffered all things and had been called almost every vile name, declared he was willing to go even farther. He said he was willing to be called a fool for the sake of the Christ he served. There are those today in this time of destiny who, God forgive them for their ignorance when the truth is so easily available, call certain God-inspired leaders, who in the free world are defying the colossal forces of atheistic communism, fools. But, standing for spiritual verities, and freedom, they are God's fools. Those who sense the real issues of this age on ages telling are crying out in anguish of soul--"Wanted, more fools with unquenchable faith in the precious things we hold nearest our hearts." The world today calls loudly for "fools for Christ's sake" which means--for humanity everywhere threatened by those who have already advanced over half the earth with shackles of slavery. My soul lift up thine eyes; Oh child, in this world's school Wilt thou be counted wise, Or just a fool? === Page 57 of 246 MONDAY SEPT. 13, 1965 DEAR LORNIE AND RICK,.. AT THIS POINT I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO GO OVER WITH YOU, MY CHILDREN, MY INTENT AND PURPOSE. AS YOU WELL KNOW, WHEN I DISCOVERED THAT I HAD SOMEHOW OBTAINED A POWER AND ABILITY... NOT KNOWN OTHERWISE TO MANKIND... I DETERMINED TO USE THIS POWER AND ABILITY (WHICH WE CALLED "PK") FOR THE CONSTRUCTIVE GOOD OF THE UNITED STATES, AND THEN THE COMPLETE WORLD PICTURE. ... BUT THE U.S. GOVERNMENT WOULD NOT ACCEPT MY WORK... SO I DETERMINED TO PROVE MY POWER AND ABILITY TO THE U.S. THE ONLY WAY POSSIBLE... BY DEMONSTRATIONS OF MY SYSTEM, FIRST PREDICTING WHAT WAS TO COME, TO VARIOUS GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, SO THAT WHEN IT HAPPENED THEY WOULD KNOW THAT IT WAS NO ACCIDENT. FOR OVER A YEAR I HAVE HARASSED THE GOVT. AND THE MILITARY, WITH THIS "PK" SYSTEM. IT HAS COST LIVES, AND FIVE TO TEN BILLION DOLLARS, IN DAMAGE. ("BETSY" ALONE HAS CAUSED ONE BILLION IN DAMAGE.) BUT THIS IS ONLY A FLY-SPECK IN TIME. ONCE MY SYSTEM IS ACCEPTED AND USED, IN COUNTLESS WAYS (TO DIVERT HURRICANES, TORNADOS, TYPHOONS... TO BRING PEACE, WHERE THERE IS WAR, ETC.) COUNTLESS LIVES WILL BE SAVED. IT IS A CASE OF THE PATIENT TAKING A LITTLE PAIN IN ORDER TO SURVIVE. IT IS A CASE OF LOSING A LITTLE, TO GAIN A LOT. AND MANY LIVES WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN LOST, IF 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 58 of 246 2) PRESIDENT JOHNSON AND THE GOVT. HAD HEEDED MY PLEAS TO LISTEN, AT THIS MOMENT I COULD BE ENDING THE TERRIBLE DROUGHT IN FLORIDA... ENDING THE TERRIBLE EAST COAST DROUGHT... HELPING CHINA'S DESPERATE DROUGHT PROBLEM... STOPPING THE VIET NAM WAR... STOPPING THE PAKISTAN-INDIA WAR... PREPARING TO DEFEAT OTHER HURRICANES COMING UP, AWAY FROM THE U.S., AND SO ON. BUT UNTIL OUR GOVT., WITH ITS FOOLISH FALSE PRIDE, LISTENS AND ACCEPTS, I AM HELPLESS TO UTILIZE THE GREATEST POWER IN EXISTENCE... THE GREATEST POWER HERETOFORE KNOWN TO MANKIND... IN BEHALF OF THAT SAME GOVT. AND MANKIND. I HAVE OFFERED, TO PRESIDENT JOHNSON, WITHOUT A FEE, TO END THE N. EAST COAST DROUGHT. HE DIDN'T EVEN GIVE ME THE COURTESY OF A REPLY. SO YOU SEE WHAT I, AND MY SP'S HELPERS, ARE UP AGAINST. OUR CIVILIZATION CANNOT SURVIVE WITHOUT THE AID OF THE SP'S. AND OUR GOVT., OF THE UNITED STATES, IS BLOCKING THE SP'S FROM SAVING CIVILIZATION. AND TIME IS RUNNING OUT. THIS IS THE TRUE PICTURE...

P K Man (Owens) Kids - Where are you? === Page 60 of 246 Wednesday May 4 1966 Dear Lornie and Rick I hope you have been well, and things at school are going fine. Just sent you some snapshots...hope you like them. Please convey my deep regrets to Pat, for the loss of Mary. I liked Mary, always did. She was a loss to the family, I know. And her children will miss her very much. Martha hasn't been touched by the virus, but baby and I have really been clobbered. There's a whopping epidemic of it right now in Philadelphia...and it has all started just since the "fireball" appeared over Philadelphia several weeks ago (I sent you a clipping.) I have a vague theory...that perhaps the nearness of a large Si craft might cause humans within their radius to be affected by what humans call "flu" or "virus." Clyde Beatty Circus is coming to town this week...and we are going to see the old gang that we worked with last year. Ain't that a laugh? Stuck here in Philly a whole year? We are going to the circus Sunday, spend the whole day, and take pictures. I'll send you some. We get no mail. Spelled with a capitol NO. Can't figure it out. Have literally hundreds of leads and contacts out...yet our mailbox remains empty, week by week. Had a dream about you kids...dreamed I came home from work, went into the kitchen, and there you kids sat with the baby, just looking at me silently. Somehow I didn't feel that you had been gone, or anything was different...I kissed Martha hello and asked what was for supper...and she said, "Ted, look, Lornie and Rick are here." Got to ring off for now. Get back to work Love and kisses.......... Dad === Page 61 of 246 Sunday April 10, '66 Dear Lonnie -- Well, how'd you & Rick like my PK work (w/ Sis's) at the Cape last two weeks? Stopped seven launchings in 10 days; blew up a Polaris missile (after it went wild, from Cape Control); and destroyed Atlas-Centaur. To top it off -- have the O.A.O. in deep trouble today. (Remember OGO, while we were at Myrtle Beach, & how we got it?) Do you want these pictures you sent returned, honey? They are cute. Julio is a fine looking boy. Only faults I can "read" from his picture are he might be spoiled, and have a fast temper. Good points easily seen -- high IQ; athletic; superior intelligence; creative genius; warmth of personality; handsome; thoughtful; would be a good debater; leader of various things like clubs or classes, etc. Also quite a young philosopher, I'd say. But from his mouth -- looks like he might fold up under strong stress or strain. If you're deeply interested in Julio, don't try to figure him out. Study his parents. What they believe what they are like, will have stamped deep into Julio and reflect their training of him. They are mostly what Julio will be like. Horse experts at race tracks do not learn too much about a horse itself. They study the horses that horse came from -- and that way they learn a lot, and bet accordingly. There are always exceptions to the rule, of course -- but that's the smartest way to proceed, and they know it. Same with humans. 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 62 of 246 2) Lorrie - get & read "Ideal Marriage" by Van de Veld. Never underestimate the importance of sex in marriage. If you have a husband who is a "big brain" & good looking, but a lousy lover in bed - your marriage will be poor. Or, if he's great in bed, but has a lousy character & disposition - you haven't got much, either. Point is... get a man with a loveable, good character & disposition, who also is a dandy lover in bed. This is important. Marriage should not be like buying a box of crackerjack, and after you've bought it & opened it - you don't like the prize inside. I am not for free love - but I do believe it is smarter to try out a boy you might marry to find out if you can "stomach" him sexually. Better than not doing it, then finding him repulsive sexually after you marry him - & either divorcing him or cheating on him. The Bentley's would not approve of the above, but from my rather vast experience & research - I pass the info along because I consider it wise and valuable. Study birth control methods. Do not be promiscuous! The above applies only when you are seriously considering getting married. (Let Rick read this letter.) Martha & I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary this week. Our marriage thrives healthily, in spite of some basic weaknesses in it. I gave her an expensive Sony radio. Remember, honey - you can't learn how to love, be honest, be faithful and loyal - in school or college. This you do on your own time. So, work at it. Love & Kisses -- Dad. P.S. They just announced total failure of the O.A.O.! We got it!! 07/09/2025 16:10 === Page 63 of 246 May 27, 1966. Dear Lonnie, How are you? We are just fine. I hope you are fine. I received the cards & the candy. Thank you very much for the beautiful Mother's Day card & the candy. The candy was very delicious. Beau helped me eat it.

You look very grown up in the picture & a lot older about 18 or 19 years old. My you are really growing fast. Pretty soon you will be taller than Dan (ha ha). Beau had an ear infection about 3 weeks ago. He had a fever. I took him to the doctor & I had to give him medicine & nose drops four times a day. He had a temperature of 102. He is just fine now. I had a very nice Mother's Day. Beau gave me a very pretty card & we went to the circus. Beau had a ball. We went on lots of rides & we saw the side show, we didn't go to the big tent on Mother's Day. We went back the following Sat. to the big tent. Beau had big eyes looking at everything. He was so excited & trying to === Page 64 of 246 remembered us. In there being the show, the circus was here. Mary's still the best at it. Kept wanting to ride on the bus to the circus. He just loves the circus. He is beginning to say sentences now. He loves to watch Batman. He can't say the Bat in Batman so he says, "manman." He gets all excited when he comes on T.V. Was so sorry to hear about your Aunt Mary dying. It was a shock to us. We have a singing canary. It sings very pretty. I named it Twitti, it is yellow and very pretty. It doesn't sing too much now because it's molting. I'm losing feathers sometimes. Sorry to hear that you're not doing too well in school. Have you had your exams? Hope you did pass. When is school out? Hope you get surf princess. Good luck to you. Write and let me know if you get it. Have they already voted or not? The weather is very nice here. It is really hot today. It has been raining a lot here, the weather just got nice and hot here recently. Before it was cold and raining here. I got an electric mixer for Mother's Day. It is real nice. I am so happy to have it. Well, I guess I will close for now. Love, Momma, Beau & Dad (XO XO XO) P.S. I took Beau to an Armed Forces Parade last Sat. It was the first parade he had ever been to. He waved at the soldiers as they went by. He was so excited. __________ === Page 65 of 246 Saturday April 30, 1966 President Lyndon Johnson. Dear Sir: I wrote you, not long ago, and told you that the 5-year drought would be ended in the weeks and months ahead, by the UFO intelligences with which I communicate. Since writing you, you have seen a remarkable display of rain... and the Si's (UFO "saucer" intelligences) made your own State a showcase, to prove their point. At this writing, Dallas and some other cities in Texas are now disaster areas...a very familiar term, what? At any rate, the entire half of the United States (East) is under rain today. Certainly you could not call the weather this Spring...typical Spring weather, or typical Spring showers. You are seeing a remarkable display of Si power...and to bring it about they had to make many many adjustments in many many places, in order to pinpoint our area with rain. I could have brought this about a year or more ago, but could get no cooperation from anyone. So the Si's will make the U.S. a present of the rain, to end the years-long drought and end all of the bad things attendant upon drought conditions. Of course, there will be flooding...for the Si's do not do things half way. P K Man Love, Dad Enclosed are two pictures for you. === Page 66 of 246 SUNDAY MAY 1, 1966 DEFENSE SECRETARY ROBERT MCNAMARA HAS DENIED THE EXISTENCE OF UFO'S - SAYING UFO'S ARE MERELY OPTICAL ILLUSIONS.

PK MAN (OWENS) === Page 67 of 246 Monday May 19, 1969 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: To that list of top government officials that I sent you this week, you can add another one... Senator William Pomene (Mich.) dropped dead of a heart attack in a hotel fire, May 17. Important reason for writing this letter: Today the Saturn moon ship set-up blew up at the Saturn Complex in Miss. In earlier correspondence, quite a while ago, I told you the "pk" was aimed there... and that the SI's would strike. But... the point is... they struck just after the two big shoots going up at the Cape this coming week. I know the SI's by now, and their pattern... and today's catastrophe with the Saturn moon ship is a harsh warning not to proceed this week at the Cape, unless the U.S. Govt. makes its peace with the SI's first. Thus... the blowing up of the moon rocket was both a carrying out of the SI's earlier threat, on record, that they would now hit NASA in earnest... plus a warning not to proceed this week.

Haven't missed bringing down a rocket in months there. That's because the Si's added some new PK weaponry...most devastatingly effective. This last Agena I got was said to fall into the Atlantic..but a commercial airplane pilot appeared on a TV program and said he and co-pilot were up in the air near the Agena...and it seemed to vanish into a peculiar yellow cloud. Figure that one out. One turtle just died...and last night the goldfish died...and our canary bird, which is a singing fool...has stopped singing. ???? Yes, read about the 16 year old girl, tortured to death. We are having one to two rapes a day here in Philadelphia...some of them on the torture side. Things are getting rough all over...would advise you to watch your step, especially with the coloreds getting ready to blow up in that area against whites. How about that cop shooting the colored husband who was driving his pregnant wife to the hospital? Don't worry about McNamara...the Si's are taking care of him in beautiful shape! He won't last much longer in his present position of power. Martha got her goodies...and you made me very happy by making her very happy. She and baby fought like tigers over the candy...I nearly died laughing. Baby would take one piece, then snatch another with the speed of lightning before Martha could stop him. And she couldn't get it away from him, either. You are definitely not getting my mail. You ask if I had seen the UFO show on NBC. Immediately after the show I wrote George, etc., that the U.S. Government would be severely punished by the Si's for that lousy show....and sent you your usual copy. Which obviously you haven't seen. By now the Si's have clobbered the U.S. Govt. in spades. The Si's, true to their word (see my ltrs.) have been inundating the East Coast with rain to break the drought. Steadily. Love and kisses, Dad === Page 70 of 246 Wednesday May 11, 1966 Rick Dear George: There seems to be no end in sight...for Government stupidity. Last night, over NBC, for an hour UFO's were explained away as anything and everything but UFO's. "Learned" scientists poo-poo'd the idea of UFO's. And so on...for an hour, to millions of American people. Of course, it was quite transparent...the Government is trying to undo the rash of effect of the recent sightings on the people. Good sightings, I might add...solid. However, this was a catastrophic thing for the powers-that-be to do. Why? The UFO's have been trying to prove their reality, and to make friends with us. Last night they were rejected in a big, big way....and actually, the big lie was told to millions of American people about them. For this act, they will retaliate, I am informed. If they do not exist...how can they predict the following, then make it happen? Within the time span of five months they will deal the U.S. Government a smashing blow, probably worse than anything it has experienced these past few years. This will be in payment for that show last night. Simple as that. I do not know what they have in mind. Could be a team of terrible hurricanes sweeping out of the Atlantic onto Florida...could be a terrible disaster in Viet Nam...but will be something on that order, and will be engineered by UFO intelligences. The program was entitled "Friend, Foe, or Fantasy" - and the full hour was spent proving they are fantasy. They will, in the months ahead..show you (U.S. Govt.) what they can be like as a foe. They wanted to be friends. P K Man (Owens) === Page 71 of 246 Wednesday, May 11, 1966 NBC Channel 10 Philadelphia Gentlemen: Last night, in this viewer's opinion, you created a fraud against the American people. It was a terrible thing to do. For a week myself and friends have been waiting for the UFO program... and all the ads said that it would be an "objective" view, giving the "fors" and "againsts". What it was...was a solid hour of explaining that UFO's were marsh-gas, and those who claim to see them are either trying to make money, or are irresponsible, nutty people. I hope enough people rise up in anger, as I did, and as ; my friends did....to register a strong complaint where it counts. IBM, NBC, and Channel 10...should be utterly ashamed of themselves. H. T. Owens 1114 Spruce St., #33 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania === Page 72 of 246 Thursday May 19, 1966 Mr. Dunn, Chief, Weather Bureau, Hurricanes Miami, Florida Dear Mr. Dunn: Last year I deliberately turned Hurricane Betsy around, with the help of the UFO intelligences, so that it would not go up the East Coast and give rain and moisture in the East Coast area. I had written Govt. agencies before, that I would do this. This year, however, the UFO's are engaged in breaking the 5-year drought on the East Coast...and any and all hurricanes will be brought up the East Coast all the way, in order to give moisture to that area. Myself and Si's will endeavor to whip up and guide many hurricanes this season to the "Electro" area of Florida, where Cape K. is located, then bring them on up the Coast to "sprinkle the grass" in a giant way all along the East Coast. Brace yourself, friend...as a Hurricane specialist, you'll have a ball this summer and Fall.

This man has planned this for a long while - put it off once, but now is getting "worked up" to do it. Of course he'll be killed, but he doesn't care. Believe he's an ex-army flyer...service man, anyway. Si's say by 1967 the White House will have to be ringed with anti-aircraft, just on this account. P K Man === Page 74 of 246 May 18, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Last night in the paper an article read: "Submerged, Pre-Aimed Missile Reported Developed by Reds." This article pointed out Russia has developed Polaris-type missiles which can be fired by remote control from containers planted under the sea. All of which is exactly what I wrote to you, about a year or so ago. Remember? I told you to count the fishing boats that visited our shores... because when they left, they would be one short... and the one that went down was especially designed to hold a missile... which could be remote-control fired later on. At the present time I am sure this is what Cuba is all about. Yes, there probably are stores of missiles in deep caves... and perhaps a few launching sites for ground-fired missiles... but George, I'll eat my hat if Russia hasn't planted a formidable number of missiles under water at the far edge of Cuba, to be fired at the U.S. when ready. Perhaps even fired from Russia by special radio signal. P K Man (Owens) === Page 75 of 246 DETECTIVE POSTS REWARD 2/19/65 # Beaten Girl Still in a Coma By BRIAN KELLY An Arlington detective has appealed to the public for any information about a television set and a decanter, similar to the ones pictured, taken from the apartment of Brenda Sue Pennington, 19, victim of a brutal beating. Runyon said some 135 persons have been questioned by himself and other Arlington detectives working on the case, but no major leads have been developed. He asked anyone with information regarding the assault to call the Arlington police station at JA 7-2900 and talk to himself, Detective Willard C. Knight, Detective Sgt. George Coppage or Lt. John E. Cullins. Runyon said that Miss Pennington apparently was last seen about 11 a.m. the day before she was found. He said neighbors saw her leave her apartment that Sunday morning with an unidentified man, described as tall, heavy-set with blond, and get into a car with him. She was found about 8 a.m. the next Monday morning, lying on the floor of her bedroom next to the telephone. Runyon said he was offering the personal reward money because he felt it was important for residents to feel safe. # Girl in Coma Since Beating Is Moved 3/2/65 Brenda Sue Pennington, 19, an Arlington career girl who has remained unconscious since she was brutally beaten in her apartment two months ago, has been transferred to a West Virginia hospital near her home of Quinnwood. Officials at Greenbrier Valley Hospital in Ronceverte, W.Va., said today Miss Pennington was resting satisfactorily after the transfer Saturday from Arlington Hospital. During her stay at Arlington Hospital, she hovered in critical or near-critical condition for weeks. Miss Pennington was found unconscious in her one-bedroom apartment the morning of Jan. 25. A portable television set, a heavy brass decanter and her purse were missing from the apartment. Meanwhile, a reward fund started by an Arlington detective investigating the case has grown to $300. Detective Russell L. Runyon started the fund with a personal pledge of $300 for information leading to conviction of the assailant. MONTH LATER!! (3/29) SHE LIVED!! WAS TAKEN HOME. I STARTED ON THIS CASE HERE # Beaten Girl in Coma; Condition Is Critical 2/25 Brenda Sue Pennington, the Arlington girl who was the victim of a vicious beating last month, underwent surgery Thursday to relieve pressure on her brain and remained in critical condition yesterday Meanwhile, several Northern Virginians, have begun raising contributions to help pay for Miss Pennington's mounting medical expenses. A fund for the family has been established at the Fidelity National Bank in Arlington. Miss Pennington, 19, was found unconscious in her apartment Jan. 25. Police said she was clubbed on the head a number of times with an unknown instrument. For a few days, she reached semi-consciousness, but her parents, who came from their home in West Virginia, have not been able to communicate with her. Robert M. Cooper, of 407 Park Ave., McLean, announced the drive for contributions yesterday. Although he did not know the Pennington family until the tragedy occurred, he has spoken to the parents and has joined with others to help them, he said. Cooper, who is an electrical inspector for Arlington County, said the nursing fees alone cost the family $330 every five days. Contributors may mail checks, payable to Fidelity National Bank, at 2009 N. 14th St., Arlington. Frank Embrey, bank president, said the checks should be accompanied by a note indicating the money is for Brenda Sue Pennington Fund. # Fund Started for Victim of Beating 2/15 Miss Pennington, a business machine operator, is still in critical condition at Arlington Hospital. Last week she underwent brain surgery, an operation that piled even more expenses on bills that exceed $30 daily. Her assailant is still at large. I SAW THESE TWO CLIPS IN PAPER.

It might amuse you, Mr. Pennington, that Lorrie, my daughter, described you as a "great big bear of a man, with real kind, gentle eyes... good eyes." We also appreciated the cooperation of yourselves, the police, and the medical staff in allowing us to enter your daughter's room and use our system in an effort to bring life into your daughter. I thought you might be interested in a few facts pertaining to our System: So far as we know it is not used at any location in the world today, except by ourselves, here in Washington. Our System was used, long ago, during the days of Moses and the Egyptians. It usually takes two to five days to take effect... full effect. Therefore, somewhere between Sunday and Friday, we anticipate that your daughter will open her eyes, and begin to progress, into full health, eventually. And, due to our System, her recovery will be much, much more rapid than under normal circumstances. As a matter of fact, her rate of recovery should be amazing. Our only hope is that we were not called in too late... allowed to come in too late. This factor is very difficult to ascertain. Just how near, or far away, from the line of Life and Death, she may be at the time. However, I used this System on a girl in Texas, near death, and unconscious... and saved her with it. Her father and brother carried her up to my apartment in Fort Worth, deep in a coma. She is alive and happy today. Once we make our initial effort on the scene... in your daughter's room... then we can continue from a distance, with your daughter seen in our mind's eye. And that is what we are doing now, night and day. We work in shifts on it. We would greatly appreciate your letting us know of her progress... how she is... now and then... so that we can gauge our work accordingly. And if we win this battle with death... and your daughter arises, happy and healthy... it is our hope that we may be allowed to visit her at the hospital and say hello to her. Of course, I must add, it is not my daughter and myself who are doing these marvelous things with PK (the name of the System) but it is Nature itself. (The same Nature that puts life into new babies, can put life into your daughter and keep it there.) Sincerely, Tod Owens (PK Man) 1216 Peabody Street, NW Washington, D. C.

We have talked & wondered about you folks a lot. It seemed I just never got around to writing. Family are fine. Brenda has improved a lot although she doesn't walk talk or feed her self. But the Dr. said if she continued to improve he would put her in braces in May she seems to know every thing you say to her but just can't answer you she does do every thing she can when you tell her to so we are still hoping & praying for the best.

He gave the fisherman a piece of metal which he said was not of this earth. Brazilian scientists are now examining the metal. This came over a radio news broadcast. Today there was nothing in the papers. I got 'em all -- even N.Y. papers. Which shows you how the U.S. Govt. controls our so-called "freedom of the press!" And how quickly they shut up, and drop an "iron curtain" around anyone or anything connected with UFO's. Why, I wonder? Be careful there, you & Rick both. These race riots are deadly -- and remember, you are in "Electra." Sure, I have protection over you -- but you wouldn't jump off a high building to test it, would you. Don't tempt Fate! Your school subjects sound interesting. You'll do better in French than I did -- I flunked it. Algebra? $2+2=5$. That's my math. Fortunately, honey, you & Rick have academic brains you're pappy ain't got. Do sumpin' with those brains! Hm?? Love, Dad. === Page 80 of 246 Monday, Aug. 16, 1965 Dear Lorrie -- Thanks for your letter. Yes, things have been popping. Cyclical. They fade, then get bigger -- fade, then get even bigger, etc. Have you gotten my letters -- stuffed with copies of letters to George, Pres. Johnson, etc.? You know what? After I called shot after shot after shot here -- even convincing the hard-boiled newspapers veteran reporter, then prep'd a storm for "The Talk of Philadelphia" show (once a week show with current important personality in Philly on it, interviewed) -- and nearly wrecked Philly with the storm (scores of lightning hits, floods, etc -- you saw the news clips?) -- suddenly, snap! like that an iron curtain came down. Must be Air Force pressure of some kind, since UFO's are in it. The orange glow was a UFO, you can bet on it. Tell them about the beauty that was close to our car in the field, that night in Texas. And the window-tape and the green eyes -- at 310 Hemphill. And the doctor who hypnotized & sent his mind to contact UFO's. My contact with the Si's couldn't get any better, honey. With the system they've given me I can "see" them and communicate with them, and they with me -- directly. In seconds. Only thing remaining is to get to a far-away isolated spot, where they will come down and meet me. Last night, Sunday a news report came over the radio. In Brazil, Sunday, a tiny man 28 inches high walked up to a fisherman's hut and said, in English(?) he was === Page 81 of 246 Thursday June 23, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's at this time would like me to list the various PK activities they are engaged in, as well as the predictions they have made for what's ahead: "Electro" - the area from Jacksonville, Fla., to Miami, Fla., is heavily PK'd, as you know...has been for two years...and it's growing all the time, the PK. "Electra" - the California coast from Frisco to Dago, PK'd. Plane-Ship-Sub PK - been on for over a year, still growing, attacks these three categories constantly in ever-increasing cyclical intensity. Breaking The Drought - Si's are systematically regulating U.S. weather now to bring to an end the 5-year drought here and once again fill the rivers, streams, wells, lakes, with fresh water for us. Air Force - Si's are presently teaching the Air Force a lesson...that they can rebut in their own way their "marsh gas" tag; they have gone to great effort and trouble to prove their reality, only to have the Air Force block their efforts from the American people. So they are going to teach the Air Force not to do this thing. NASA - Si's are harassing all NASA's efforts in space work, in every possible way, with PK effects. Top U.S. Govt. Officials - PK'd. Prediction - A U.S. naval disaster by Sept., 1966. Nuclear sub, aircraft carrier, etc. Not just a collision, but a disaster of some sort. Prediction - Unless U.S. removes troops and personnel from Viet Nam, U.S. will suffer its worst defeat in its entire history there, from an unexpected twist that will take place. Could be a massacre of Americans. Hurricane PK - is out and working, to develop hurricanes for '66 and bring them either to Cape Kennedy or Mississippi Michoud Saturn Space Complex...then on up East Coast for needed rain. 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 82 of 246 2 Prediction - There is great danger for the U.S. now...of nuclear war... through January, 1967. That is, the danger is especially keen right now, more so than usual, due to activities the U.S. is not aware of. The Si's plan to do something very unusual...make an appearance and do something no UFO has done before, in the near future, to prove their reality to the U.S. Govt., and their connection with P K Man. Castro and Cuba - have been PK'd since 1964. Si's are PK'ing bodies of water...seas, oceans, lakes, rivers, etc... to reject humans and attack humans in many ways (as never done before) in order to further demonstrate their PK powers. Si's warn...if U.S. peoples keep shooting at their craft, and trying to attack their craft, they will reluctantly have to retaliate in kind. They have been trying hard to avoid anything like this. Si's warn us...watch carefully our 3 coasts...Atlantic, Pacific, Gulf, for great danger threatens the U.S. from the water on these coasts. Si's warned U.S. to cancel present Fleet exercise in Atlantic and Carribean called "Beach Time" because of heavy concentration of PK in these areas, etc. Si's warn that a man somewhere is planning a kamikaze-style small plane crash, loaded with explosives, into the White House or Johnson's Ranch House...and that because of this the White House and Capitol will have to be ringed with anti-aircraft by '67. "Earth Belt" PK - PK used by Si's in area above earth to affect objects in orbit around earth. Russian Earthquakes - PK has been out on this for over a year. Vehicle PK - Autos, trains, planes, busses, etc., will be affected. Klu Klux Klan PK - Hit by PK over a year ago. Johnson Administration Re-election PK - Si's will work against the present Administration, which has rejected them and failed to cooperate with them. "OGO" PK'd...now up. Titan w/8 satellites PK'd...now up. 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 83 of 246 3 Philadelphia PK'd for Lightning and Savage Storms and Rain, in the near future. Electrical potential to be built up here. WCAU PK Demonstration - Friendly Si demonstration for the benefit of their radio station friends. Jack McKinney PK - Not a "hit", but some unusual demonstration solely for the amusement and education of Jack McKinney re the Si's. A large-scale blow will be dealt by the Si's to the U.S. Govt. because of the nation-wide CBS hour-long TV UFO spoof, not long ago, "Friends, Foes, or Fantasy." This will happen by October 15, 1966. McNamara PK - The Si's have made McNamara a special PK target of theirs, for stating that there is absolutely nothing to the Si's ... to the American people via newspapers, etc. (If there is nothing to the UFO's, then McNamara has nothing to worry about, has he.) Johnson and White House PK'd - some time ago, and since then many odd things have happened there. Moyers fell down stairs, Him run over, etc. Stock Market PK'd. Prediction - Si's now have something much bigger and more important for P K Man to perform, than what he's been doing in the past. (?) Si's warn that the phrase "Black Power" is a sort of magical phrase which will now truly whip the negros into a frenzy - and Stokely Carmichael is the magician who can make that phrase work to its utmost extent in time to come. Si's warn they may put ideas for weapons and unknown tools of Nature into the minds of peoples elsewhere in the world, other than the U.S., who will then humble our country with them...unless our Govt. cooperates with Si's. Si's warn...they intend to deal our seat of Government, The White House, or Capitol Hill, a serious blow of some kind by Sept., 1966, - - - - - - - - - - I think that's the entire list...oh, they are PK'ing for a major earthquake in California some time this year, around 8 on the Richter Scale. All this...to show their various powers to our people...and try to persuade our Government to join them as friends, and cooperate with them They are using pressure on our Govt., just as U.S. is pressuring Hanoi.

Messy, messy, messy..... Hope your grades are okay, Lornie. And that you are enjoying your school. The Phila. schools are dangerous...full of drugs, dope addicts, prostitution (they've broken up several rings where the high school boys were selling the girls, here) and like that. So.....you are much better off in that school than you would be here. But we ain't going to be here long. We are GOING just as soon as .... we can bankroll the Leaving Philly Project.

Evidently, they say, Nasa hasn't yet learned its lesson, incredibly. So here is what the Si's are going to do: (1) The Surveyor rocket, going up Monday...they are going to try and destroy, going off the ground...if it gets up, they are going to try to force it off its path so that it does not even reach or hit the moon. (2) The Gemini 9 shot ... they'll harass as usual, trying to keep from harming the men, as usual. However, they warn at this time: Ahead, on some manned shot, they are going to turn off all the power in the manned vehicle, and block all communications to and from the ground, leaving the vehicle helpless. Also they will show themselves to the men in the vehicle. Then, when all seems lost...they will give the power and communications back to the manned vehicle, so that it can come down. === Page 86 of 246 Friday June 10, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: PLEASE READ THIS LETTER THROUGH. IT IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE. Six weeks ago I began my usual hurricane work...that I have been so successful with since starting it in 1964. The Si's showed me how to plant "P K seeds" down past Cuba, which would develop into hurricanes. (The U.S. Govt. could use this for peaceful purposes, yes?) Anyway...on June 1 I wrote you a letter. Following is the last paragraph of that letter: "Might mention before closing...I expect a hurricane (an early one) in the near future, out of the Florida direction." 5 days later Hurricane Alma, the earliest hurricane in history to hit Florida, was born. Can the U.S. Govt. possibly, possibly, still doubt that I communicate with the Si's? Or that I can make and guide hurricanes? I was working for a record-breaking early hurricane, and got it. I tried to do this last year, but didn't make a full-fledged hurricane... did hit Miami with a "storm of hurricane wind"...but they didn't call it a hurricane then. At any rate, this year I succeeded. And in that June 1 letter the other information was quite quite accurate...keeping in mind the loss of the half-billion dollars Air Force plane this week, plus the loss of the other important plane, and the loss of one of the best Air Force pilots in the world, plus the loss of Major Cross, another Air Force pilot. Anyway, George, the ability I have, nobody else in the world has. Why isn't my Govt. utilizing it? Sincerely, P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce, #33 Phila., Pa. === Page 87 of 246 Wednesday, August 24, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, OSCAR. Dear Rowland: The same old story. I quote my letter to you of August 19, 1966: "I have been neglecting my hurricanes. Will go to work now and try to produce one in the next few days, or few eeks, and this time try and get it to Electro..." Took four days to produce Hurricane Faith, which sprung up August 22 and developed into a real rough cane on the 23rd. But dammit...so far from Electro! Am going to have a hell of a time wrestling it to Electro. In that same letter, I have a sort of an answer to my paragraph about the boa constrictor, monkey, shark, and Asian leopard. These critters are usually found in Asia, not in the U.S. Therefore the Si's, in their "show" language...are trying to tell us something about Asia. Remember how the Si's led the string of police cars to Freedom, Pa.? This is the same sort of "language", I am sure. Anyway, brother Swank, another fine "hit", eh? P K Man (Owens) P.S. Pat - you've got a brave copy. I haven't missed a cane this year! (But am doing poorly in getting them on target.) === Page 88 of 246 Sunday, September 4, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, C.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: I have been waiting several days for the Si's to contact me...they did today, so I can write at last. First, they want the U.S. to know that, as long as P K Man, their representative, is in trouble...the U.S. is in trouble as a Govt. and as a Nation. Well, I am in trouble...the job went under last week, haven't been able to get another, and we're almost out of food. Therefore this is what will happen...all sorts of catastrophes and crises will hit the U.S. Govt. in the weeks and months ahead. The Si's plan, as told you before, to unleash all forms of "PK" or CDE mechanisms either in multiple patterns, or all at once. This will be something to observe! It hasn't been done before. Fires, plane crashes, floods, tornados, hurricanes, riots, high Govt. or Service men removed...etc, everything you see there in your copy of my Choice File. It will be a tremendous demonstration of their power. Now, I have done poorly with my hurricane work this year. I produced Faith as I said I would, within days...brought Faith in beautifully on target, then dammed if she didn't veer, after coming all the way from Africa, just a few hundred miles from target, and go up the coast. But one thing is very important. Twice I warned Faith she was going to be attacked by seeding planes...and both times she responded like a trained boxer by sidestepping into a safe area for her, thus negating the seeding effort. I have to list Faith as a "miss"...but I cannot understand it. Seems like the Si's did not want to put her into the target. But the Si's wanted to scare the hell out of target, by showing what they could do. After Faith got past the target, I put up a PK wall to stop her, and she stopped, for quite a while. Then she crawled slowly into the PK wall and edged NE. So I worked to turn her NW, or West. She responded by then going NW. But again she went back to the NE route. This cane was determined not to hit land. During the action I called your office almost every day and reported what I was doing so that, fail or succeed, you would know exactly what I was doing. I regret giving such a poor performance, when I did so beautifully in 1964 and 1965. Well, 1966 is not over yet. I told you a couple of weeks ago I would produce another storm after Faith, closer this time to Florida. Today they announced the "Seventh Tropical Storm of the Season... Greta" in the location I was working on, closer to Florida. See where Typhoon Betty ran over the U.S. Base in Korea? Really tore it up. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 89 of 246 Sunday, September 4, 1966 TO ALL SOTA MEMBERS The Sota Church, at this particular time, needs a financial transfusion. As President, therefore, I am making a wonderful offer to any member wishing to take advantage of it...and able to do so. At this time I am willing to accept a partner. The cost of the partnership is $3000, with $500 to be sent in advance, as "earnest money," before September 11, 1966. The balance to be paid when my family and I move to that area where the partner lives. My partner will, from that time on, share in the benefits and satisfactions of the Sota Church. It must be pointed out that the partner does not need to do any of the various works necessary to run and build up further this wonderful Church. His, or her, assistance will be purely financial. The $3000 will come back to the partner in a year's time...and he, or she, will still be a partner in one of the greatest Churches-to-be in the United States. This is the opportunity of a lifetime for the lucky person wishing to take advantage of it. Therefore, if you want to be the co-owner of this wonderful Church, send $500 before September 11. Then, after my family and I come to your area to relocate SOTA headquarters, we can complete the partnership. The Si's have instructed me to do this. They want Sota to be out of the Philadelphia area...and this is the best way to move the Sota Church to the right area. H. Owens, President, THE SOTAS 1114 Spruce, No. 33 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania === Page 90 of 246 IN CONCLUSION: I must add this note. Most of you I have been writing to for about two years. And my estimate of you, both high and low people, is that you are either dam fools, or very very dumb scientists...or both. Now that's not nice, to say that. But I think it is accurate, and I am fully qualified to say it. During these past two years I have accomplished impossible things... made absolutely impossible predictions come true...and proved conclusively my connection with UFO's and my two-way communication system with them. Now you cannot possibly think I am just a "contactee" and some kind of nut...because you have more than enough material in your files to prove this is not so. I could cite roughly 100 cases right now...major happenings...that I have predicted in advance, and in most instances with details of what, when, and how. For the Government not to take advantage of this obviously unusual and tremendous ability, therefore, is dam foolishness. In this case, criminal foolishness, for the SI's have been trying to work with our Govt. For the scientists not to take advantage of this, is completely unbelievable...for what I have done, with the SI's, staggers the imagination...and powers and principles have been employed not even known to mankind, except myself. Therefore, I say that the scientists who may have looked at my correspondence, and done nothing, just have to be stupid. Not long ago I gave the Govt. two days warning...before the Reds struck at our warships, and before the Reds put more and better planes into the air. It was a double-prediction that came true within days. Think of the tremendous value I should have to my Govt., who has had two years to think about it and evaluate my work. Yet we remain poor, shabby, live in dangerous surroundings, my family has had to split up, etc etc. Frankly, folks, you don't deserve the brilliant intelligence I've been giving you this long time. Owens 7 === Page 91 of 246 Date: 7/14/66 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's have decided that (1) The U.S. Govt. is not cooperating with them, and (2) Their representative, P K Man, has not been treated so well. (Was called a "psycho" yesterday on a radio show, over the air; cannot get written confirmation of wonderful predictions of major events made beforehand; cannot get financial help from any source to meet the Si's wishes, etc.) Therefore, say the Si's, the time is over for little miracles...like telling the U.S. Government of a Red attack on warships two days before the attack came; calling earthquakes and hurricanes before they happen, etc. Obviously, they tell me, something must be done on a larger scale to convince those who insult me, and do not cooperate with me. They are going to cause a series of smashing blows, catastrophes, the entire length and breadth of the U.S., and this will be done in the form of a huge "X". See crude drawing below. To further prove this is all real, and that I am speaking for them...they will make "public appearances" in various places (good enough to make the newspapers) as a signature of their own, to this document. They will undertake this action beginning September 1, 1966, if P K Man has not been given cooperation by that time as per the Si's wishes, and signed confirmations have not been given him. P K Man ---------- P.S. THIS IS IMPORTANT. A year ago Zachow, a scientist, told me I was wasting my time and money...that the U.S. Govt. was deaf, dumb and blind to my work. Then I didn't believe him. Now I do. I have proven my connection with the Si's; made astounding predictions ahead of time; and so on. Yet I have not been approached by the Govt.; have not been helped; have not been encouraged - have, in fact, worked in a vacuum under great hardships the while. So now...I quit. I have yet to notify the Si's, and do not know how they will feel. But from now on the Govt. will not know what the Si's are up to...will not know when the Reds are going to strike at our warships, or put more planes into the air against us. Everything from now on will come as a complete surprise to the U.S. Govt. without a P K Man advance tipoff, good or bad. And I guess that's the way the Govt. wants it. So long, you silent people out there...... 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 92 of 246 8/27/65 P3 They also point out that, as for my being poor...without funds, car, TV, house, etc. Moses was just a sheep-herder. The Disciples had nothing but the clothes on their backs. Others that were guided by a Greater Intelligence...no matter what the name... were poor people. Jesus, to name one. They do put up a strong argument, Arnold. And the feeling that I receive, carried with their intelligence, is a good feeling...a constructive, kindly, loving feeling. I am a damn good sensitive myself, Arnold. I have encountered the "bad" controls... === Page 93 of 246 8/27/65 P 2 Oh, Arnold...had to reopen my letter to insert this.... The Si's also point out that Moses, whom they claim to have helped, received their messages...and they guided him. He was a poor sheep herder, and had nothing, just like me. He was given an impossible task...just like me...and he couldn't believe that anybody would listen to him...just like me. "My people will not listen to me or believe me," he told the Bush. "And certainly the Pharaoh will not believe me or pay attention when I ask him to release my people." But the Voice in the Bush gave him instructions and reassured him that everything would work out all right...that he would be listened to, eventually...and that the Pharaoh, with the help of God...would be forced to release his people. On this basis he proceeded...as I have proceeded...except that instead of a Voice from a Bush, it's been a different source, seemingly. Then Moses, with the "magic" staff, proceeded to wreak devastation upon the Egyptians, when they would not listen to him. Sickness over the land. Fouled-up water. Insects swarming all over everything. And so on, ending with the death of poor, innocent babies. And the final destruction of the Egyptian army. That was about as rough as you can get. And it was done for a good purpose, we can now say, with "20-20 hindsight." But at that time Moses own people got very mad at him...because his "destructiveness" was causing the Egyptians to put worse pressure on them. They begged Moses to stop, and forget the whole thing. They would just go on, as always, being slaves. But Moses...one, poor, man...heeded God's voice and orders...and carried on. So that this, later, was reckoned a very great "good" thing in the Bible. It is holy, as a matter of fact. Well, I have no illusions that God is talking to me, or guiding me...I know darn well, as a matter of fact, that it is UFO's, because I have the proof of it. And Arnold, based on how rough the early Christians were...to burn away the dross from man's soul in order to leave the gold...the present activity is definitely not out of line. In early Bible days, remember, Christian bands that roamed and slaughtered entire tribes...killing women and children? The Si's and I aren't that rough. All that they have done is try and get the ear of this government...by tornados, hurricanes, affecting subs, rockets, planes, etc., to show this government what power they have...but from the start they have pointed out that they want only to use their great powers to help this country; most of all this entire world. And all they want for starters is for this country to start helping them help the world. Arnold, if they wanted to be mean, or were vicious, they could have done far, far more destruction and wreaked far far much more havoc, than they have. They have just done a little, to show their power. Which has the greatest intelligence, Arnold...President Johnson and McNamara and Rusk and the rest of the advisors...or the Si's? Which has the greatest ability to see ahead in time? You know the answer. Furthermore, the course that we are steering now, in our own government, is definitely leading to mass destruction. What worse could the Si's do to us? They are desperately trying to halt things! 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 94 of 246 8/27/65 p 1 Friday August 27, 1965 Dear Arnold: The Si's wish me to point out to you that they were bringing me along beautifully in Fort Worth, Texas...that I was in fact healing people given up otherwise as hopeless by dentists and the medical fraternity...plus many other things along the lines of auto-hyp, raising the will to live in humans, etc. They were busily teaching me this advanced, far advanced, system of using "something past the mind" - under an umbrella of light-waking-hyp...when my fellow humans tore the entire structure apart. They point out that had people...not them...left me alone...I would have prospered, now living quite happily, and making great strides in the field of helping fellow humans...using their powers constructively. But that people, here on earth, tore down the help they were giving me. They point out that they have no money; they do not use it, or have use for it. What they have is power, and they have given me that...which is all that they have to give. They point out that they have faithfully helped me in every single experiment I have produced, in order to convince my government to take me under its wing, protect me and family, so that then the si's and I can "work around the world" with good, constructive, "white" PK phenomena...healing or putting into balance the present unbalanced weather condition, world-wide; healing, or putting into balance the present unbalanced mental and spiritual condition of the world; etc. They point out that for me to give them a week to bring me money or wealth etc., is ridiculous...because even now my own people are trying to see to it that I am kept in a broke and stripped condition. They point out that my mail and letters may be blocked from coming to me; (I already know that all telephone calls from the radio shows were blocked from me...Mr. Leipziger, at the Congress Hotel, told me. I had dozens of phone calls from people who were interested in me. Leipziger cooly told them I had "checked out!") If the government wishes to keep me broke, that is easy and simple. Any time I get a job a government man unobtrusively goes to see my boss, flashes his credentials...says "Now, actually this man is not a criminal, but will you tell me all you know about him?" Soon I am let go by the boss. This sort of thing is not conducive to longevity in the business world. They point out that they have been trying to help me sustain myself and family, by being hired to break the drought...and they almost succeeded..with the newspaper write-up and the radio shows. They point out, Arnold, that possibly there is an evil force of entities...not themselves...at this point trying to block them, and doing a good job of blocking me. They reiterate that they are only here to help us, humans, restore balance and sanity to an unbalanced and insane world, as it stands today. There it is, Arnold, their rebuttal. It was a pleasure talking to you today. I enjoy your advice, and your conversations, and your wisdom. We do have rapport. And I am still horrified that you went on the defensive when I asked you to watch my fingertips. When I am signalling the Si's, (I have many methods) I "sense" lightning flowing from my fingertips into the skies...and I wondered if you would sense the lightning. Sincerely Ted 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 95 of 246 Thursday 8/26/65 Copy Lorna + Bob The Editor Philadelphia Bulletin Dear Sir: I apologize for my former rude manners...in offering two inches of rain to Philadelphia in exchange for another story. The only excuse that I have is...that the story was supposed to perhaps find someone that would help me break the East Coast drought, completely, at no fee. Which, I think, is big of me, even if no one else does. Anyway, let's let bygones be bygones, eh? Let me go at this problem another way. I am going to give Philly some real rain within the next week-10 days. That rain last Sunday was not mine...and it was only 7/10 of an inch...just dew, really. My rain is rain - and you can count on 2-4 inches, at the least. I will not ask anything for it. It will be to make up for my bad manners in trying to bribe you with rain. You know, it is hard for me to understand...as long as I would make rain with chemicals, that is all right. Or, with parapsychology, that is all right...but when I make rain by communicating with something...that is wrong... Why? As long as Philadelphia gets the rain! Incidentally, I nearly fell off my chair laughing this evening...to read about the New York officials who returned to New York, not having seen that wonderful rain-making invention in California...because it blew a fuse or short-circuited, or something. Ha ha ha. You will note that my storms do not blow fuses or short-circuit. Hoping we still are friends, I remain Sincerely Ted Owens "the Rain Maker" $\}$ 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 96 of 246 Wednesday, August 25, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: Catastrophe after catastrophe.......... Gemini 5 could have been one...should have been...but the UFO's spared it...so far. Then the Hong Kong plane, losing more Marines than what we lost last week in Viet Nam fighting the Cong, if the newspapers are correct with their figures. Then the X-19 crash today. Then the OSO Flying Laboratory at Cape Kennedy today, kaput. How fast can catastrophes come? And these are all "SI" signs, George...laugh if you like. Can the Government explain how they occurred? Only when I am accepted by the U.S. Government, and hired according to their instructions, will catastrophes cease...and the U.S. start winning and getting ahead in every direction. As I told you...it is far worse to have the saucer intelligences against us, than it would be Russia and China combined. Incidentally...where President Johnson went to church last Sunday, the power failed and the electric organ would not play. Then the little girl fainted next to Johnson yesterday. These are signs too, George. It means that the SI's have President Johnson zeroed in now, wherever he goes. Enough said. I don't, George. They do. And one last thought...whoever is blocking me from being accepted by the U.S. Government is actually causing these SI catastrophes. You had better believe it! Sincerely, Ted Owens PK Man 1114 Spruce St., #3B Phila., Pa. === Page 97 of 246 7/11/66 P 3 This letter should have gone to you yesterday...but due to no stamps, and no access to typewriter...had to be delayed a day. Good thing nothing really hot was on to warn about, with the exception of the European blowup ahead. The SI's have finally given me a definition for what I have been calling "PK" all this time. They say to tell you that "PK" means "Other Dimensional Effects", which means simply that they have been creating the phenomena from their own dimension to take effect in our dimension. Remember I told you the SI's were going to PK all vehicles? After that there was the terrible ship strike that paralyzed England's shipping; the great hassle over "unsafe" new cars that sort of bent the auto business and almost unhinged the stock market; last week's auto strike; and the present airplane strike...its biggest in history. All vehicles. Plus yes many ship collisions, burnings; auto accidents; plane wrecks; train derailments; etc. The SI's are near this area, and are about to make a move that will bring them to public notice again, just in case people are forgetting them. Something startling. They are getting restless because I am not getting anywhere with the U.S. Government. That bodes ill for the U.S. Govt.. I know from experience. I direct your attention to my letter of Oct. 24, 1964...the idea therein is still a good one. Incidentaly...another hit. My ltr. to you of January 23, 1965: "I am, therefore, concentrating more deadly PK on Castro...am amazed nothing has happened to him...he is the only one I can remember to resist the PK effects, unless they have a double who has taken his place." Phila. Inquirer. 6/20/66 === Page 98 of 246 7/11/66 B3 P2 2 "CASTRO REPORTED SICK IN EUROPE" - "Miami, Fla. June 20 (AP)-An American anti-Castro organization said Monday that it has been informed from inside Cuba that Fidel Castro is undergoing medical treatment in the Soviet Union or Czechoslovakia and that a double is taking his place in Havana...the committee said that Castro had undergone electroshock mental treatments for three weeks in Havana. Bethel, executive secretary of the committee, said Castro has used doubles more than once in the past several years." So, George, it seems that perhaps my PK did get to the target...and my hunch was certainly right about Castro using a double. When I "hit" Castro with PK, I glued a magnet onto his face, on a picture, and combined it with my usual PK practice. It is interesting that his trouble is mental. The magnet is still there. You know, after all of my success in predictions...the U.S. Govt. should be beating down my door to utilize my services in this capacity alone. DO YOU REALIZE....what I have accomplished these past several months? (1) Predicted A UFO would fly over Philadelphia and be seen by all within a few days...and that is exactly what happened...the East Coast "fireball". (2) Predicted an early hurricane, within a few days...and Hurricane Alma appeared in six days. (3) Predicted big earthquake in California in the "near future"...and they then had the strongest quake in eleven years within two weeks, plus two other big quakes on top of it. (4) Predicted that Philadelphia would be attacked by violent lightning attacks "in the near future"...and it has had three such storms shortly afterward. (5) Predicted the Commies would launch an "imminent" attack on our fleet at Viet Nam. It was imminent. They struck with torpedo boats within two days after my warning. (And that was just the prelude to the symphony.) In other words...my information has been such that I feel quite safe in saying no other human being in this world could have duplicated it...and no intelligence service of this or any other government could have duplicated it. Consider the variety of the predictions. Why is why I think the U.S. Government must have some wheels missing...not to utilize my services. P K Man (Owens) - Owens 4 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 99 of 246 Kids!! Thanks for those quakclips. We did not get that info here!! Dad Monday, July 11, 1966 Mr. George Clark CIA Dear George: The SI's warn... of an imminent major happening in Europe which will both shock and amaze the U.S. - and confront us with another major crisis to try and cope with. I warned you in my letters of Feb. 18, 1965, and July 17, 1965, that the Russians had some new weapons which we didn't know about that made them confident of having a big edge over us in case of war. Yesterday one of those weapons was exposed through the newspapers to the U.S. - a missile that can alter its direction. BUT I wrote the U.S. Govt. long ago that the Russ had this missile. I wrote you and told you that Russia had a missile that they could shoot, alter its direction, and bring around at us from a Latin American country... and then who could we pin the blame on. One of their other dandy new weapons they are secretly showing De Gaulle, etc., to persuade our allies it would be far better to switch alliances than to fight. Probably is why Wilson is being invited to Moscow. The U.S. is losing its friends - weak though they be - and the U.S. is slowly getting snookered. We haven't had a good idea in a carload for much too long a time. We've been butting heads with Russia, then with China and Asia - and now we're butting heads with our allies and neutrals. Our own country is butting its head against the wall in its spare time, being divided as it is with colored vs whites, anti-war demonstrators, etc. As I warned you some time ago, things will go from worse to worse to worser - unless the U.S. joins the UFO's. They alone can unravel the whole mess and put things right. === Page 100 of 246 9/3/65 p2 2 constructive channels, then things could get rough. Because of my newspaper write-up on rainmaking, and the two radio broadcasts.......... I lost my job..........and the agency that was placing me on jobs, dropped me as "some kind of nut." Ha ha ha! Yep, a 5-10 billion dollars nut..........that's about what I have cost the government so far with PK. But of course, I expected it, and willingly made the "trade"..........as a matter of personal values. I have about three dozen letters I received as a result of the radio programs.......... from everywhere.......... Alabama, Ohio, Illinois, New York, Delaware..........even Canada. Would you like to see these peoples' letters, plus my answers? If so, let me know and will send them..........but you must promise to send them back, because they are a part of my files. When do you start to school? Just think, Lornie, you'll be 16 purty soon. My, my, how you do grow. Be no time at all until you have a beautiful home of your own, a fine husband who loves you, and be raising your own little chilluns. Great care must be used, however, in selecting your man..........remember that. Teen-agers get "crushes" on fellows their age, sometimes ... oh foo, I'm not going to try and advise you. Sometimes I think maybe teenagers, in their brainless "crush" state..........are working on a more accurate "beam" from Nature..........than older, more mature people who think they know all of the answers because they are older and more mature. And they still wind up throwing things at their husband, or worse. Who knows? Only Nature. Not people, that's for sure. One thing is for sure..........Pat is a fine judge of people, and can steer you straight. She can spot a phony a mile away..........just like daddy can. So give momma a look at any of your catches. She'll read him, but good. Well, Rick, what are you doing? Out of town visiting? Be very careful of venereal disease, kids. This week were two articles in the papers..........doctors everywhere now are greatly alarmed because just recently VD rate shot up to the moon. They can't understand why, but they are warning all the highschool and college kids to beware.......... Write. Love and kisses.......... Dad. P.S. Just finished making a dandy rainstorm - which, as a side-product to my prediction - put out a giant 5-alarm fire which the firemen couldn't handle because water facilities were too far away from the scene - people in 10 homes were evacuated because the fire was out of control. Meanwhile I was on the balcony outside our apartment, activating the storm. It put the fire out. See attached. 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 101 of 246 Friday, Sept. 3, 1965 Dear Lornie and Rick: Hi...what are you two up now? Rick, haven't heard from you for a long time. Am surprised, in lieu of the successes have had with "PK phenomena these past weeks. I wouldn't suppose wild elephants could keep you from writing about it. Right now am working on Hurricane Betsy...naturally...just like last year. Spent hours last night getting Betsy to turn left, hook West. Have had to correct her course several times now. But she's a good little hurricane...and I have added several refinements and mechanisms which I can't discuss here...but which are dandies. For instance, when I read that 15 airplanes were getting ready to attack Betsy, while she was standing still temporarily, with silver iodide, to kill her....I put in anti-plane PK in such a way that Betsy had a chance herself to get the planes, before the planes got her. Like they were reading my mind, the government canceled the plane strike. Good thing they did. I have learned so much...so much...since you kids have left. Damn, wish I could tell you all about it. What I have learned is from the saucer intelligences....the ones I got the message from in Washington that night at Mangels. Whatever you do...if anything ever happens to me....be sure and get my files, which I carry mostly in a black bag, wherever I go...Have a bunch of notebooks in there, and a bunch of folders with material. For God's sake keep this until you grow up...I will never be able to forget what happened to the material I sent to Pat to keep for me, when I was in a jam in Phoenix one time...in the ash can it went. So do not let anyone else get their hands on my file. Keep it yourselves, because it is beyond price or value. When I tell you that, you'd better believe it. I have even drawn colored pictures of the insides of the Si's spacecraft...pictures of the different things they do, and how they do them. For instance, they know where I am at all times, and how I am...because they have rigged a "floating light" high overhead in the sky, over me, wherever I go. This light pulsates, and tells them not one thing...just where I am...but my mood, my emotions, how alive I am, and so on. Yesterday, again, someone in a car tried to hit me. That makes three times in a week it's been tried. New, someone trying to brainwash you would say, "Ah, he's a paranoid nut." But not so...I have been walking to work for months here, and have never had an accident, or a near accident...until this week. Then suddenly pow pow pow...three "freak" occurrences where cars, instead of letting me walk with the light, suddenly accelerate to high speed and except for my peripheral vision and agility would have settled me for good by now. Whoever is behind it...will give up on cars now...for I am wary of that trap...and will try another angle. Am sure it is not our government, because they seem to place ... well ...I don't think it is. Could be commie. My 4-hour radio stint that one night told the commie's all they needed to hear, to try and get me, before the U.S. Government miraculously finds its right mind and accepts me. Am positive you kids are not getting all of my mail; why, I don't know. But if you were, you would be writing differently, and more often. That is for sure. One day you will see my file...and I have copies of all letters I have sent to you...and you can see very easily what you've gotten and what you haven't. Little Bo is so cute, it is almost unbelievable. And smart....wow!

If you want to know the details...they were twittering and tweeting excitedly, which is the noise they make when they get excited. Because they have been made happy for a change, instead of frustrated, they will do something nice now for Philadelphia, I know...I am asking them to...especially a two-day rain in an effort to get several inches of rain here for the City in appreciation...and I think that they will also do something nice for CIA, and perhaps the U.S. Government, in exchange for this show of friendship...this story. Because this story was a key pivotal point in their plans, since I couldn't get through to official Washington. Only one thing bothers the 84's and gives them trouble...and that is the "time" factor, because they do not know time, or use time, as we know and use it. We measure it by minutes, hours, days, weeks...but they do not. Sometimes when I send them intelligence, and do not get results in a few days, I give up...but it happens, comes about, a week or two later. Sometimes, to my utter amazement, it happens overnight. Such as the Russian spaceship Pashkov. I "hit it with PK" (i.e. sent my instructions to the UFO's) and they got it overnight, just the way I wanted them to. Such as the night I hit the West Coast with "earthquake PK" and by morning Washington-Oregon had the quake. And so on with other examples I could name. I myself do not understand the time angle. Perhaps I will. They are busily telling me things about their activities and themselves, which of course I am faithfully logging. They, and I, do not expect anyone at all to believe us on this...unless it is absolutely proven by them...and that is what I have been doing, and will continue to do. 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 103 of 246 Kids - The day after I wrote this letter and mailed it - lightning hit the Moon Rocket pad at Cape Kennedy. Killed one, injured up to five for the hospital. Dad Wednesday, August 3, 1966 Dear President Johnson: On July 21, 1966, I wrote George Clark, CIA: "My little friends (in flying saucers; UFO's) say that they will appear over one of our major U. S. cities soon, in one of their flying machines. They won't name the city, for security reasons (theirs.)" "They also state that they will begin an attack campaign on the U.S. with lightning. Lightning attacks everywhere. There will be an unusual abundance of lightning bolts striking everywhere, everything, soon." .......... "The above in an effort to further prove that PK Man (T. C. Owens, The Rainmaker) is their representative and that they can communicate with PK Man." ---------- Mr. Johnson, when I typed that letter the SI's (saucer intelligences) told me they were sending out UFO's to blanket every State in the U.S. Ready to use lightning, or any other signal I should send. Poised and ready. Today I read in the paper that last weekend they had been sighted in many States over Saturday and Sunday. Do not mistake this. They are very excited, as I am excited. For after centuries of time they have at last managed to set up an effective communication with a human being (myself). They have taken a full year of setting this whole thing up with me... as a matter of fact, until the South Pole sighting I did not know that my work had anything to do with UFO's... I thought that I was contacting the intelligence behind Nature, whatever that was. For the SI's have given the U.S. Government proof positive, two different ways and two different times, that I am connected with them, with a two-way communication. Which I most certainly am. 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 104 of 246 August 6, Friday, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: I will have an important "intelligence" tip to give you soon, which could conceivably benefit the CIA. For now, will you please get my July 21 letter, and note that I called the shot with the prediction (*) that my "little friends" would be seen over a U.S. city as a signal to you that I am for real? Also, next paragraph down, I told you that they would undertake attacks of lightning...for the same reason...to prove that I am for real...their contact man, so to speak. Well, you've had the sightings, in plenty. As for the lightning, I think the best signal they gave you was the lightning hit this week...August 4, I think it was...on the Moon Rocket pad at Cape Kennedy. So...you have your signal. Might interest you to know that I wrote Mr. Eastwood at NASA (Inventions Dept.) July 7, 1965 of course, and warned him in the letter that I was again, as of last year, aiming hurricanes and lightning and freak accidents at the Cape this year. Only took four weeks for lightning to chew up the Moon Rocket pad. Not bad, eh? As for up here...I wrote President Johnson August 3, 1965 (this week) and told him: "They (the UFO's) will do something nice now for Philadelphia, I know...I am asking them to..especially a two-day rain in an effort to get several inches of rain here for the City in appreciation..." The very next day, George, they got their 2½ inches of rain all in a bundle. Did them quite a bit of good. Now, for your amusement, and because you've been so good to listen to me for so long...I will let you in on something. Am calling fleets of UFO's here, to Philadelphia...from everywhere. Trouble is I do not know what they can do to prove to these people here that I'm for real...but I will think of something. Believe they are here already, because I sent for them this afternoon. With all that power, whatever kind it is that they have...and it seems to be miraculous, judging from what they've accomplished this past year, they should do something startling. Am trying to convey the idea to them of coming right down over the city and hovering. They give me the idea back that we might have some kind of rays like they have, or whatever it is they have...and hurt them or something...so that they are reticent to do this. Am I am trying to tell them we haven't any such thing, and it's safe. I want to bring one down right over Market Street and have it hover there for 20 minutes. What else they'll do on their own is anybody's guess. Also, have asked them to send rain out to the U.S. for 2-3 weeks, before starting drought conditions again. Am sure that they will. Incidentally, last week I warned you that some terrible blow would be struck at the U.S. soon...and I believe that it was the === Page 105 of 246 source ture (Copy - 2nd Page) Monday, August 9, 1965 Letters to the Editor Dear Sir: I would appreciate an opportunity to answer Mr. Rosenberg, of Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and Mrs. R. B., of Langhorne, Pa., who placed articles re my rainmaking in your newspaper this evening. WELL-WRITTEN First, Mr. Rosenberg... Mr. Darling, of the Bulletin, is a very intelligent man, and knows that a memory system is simply a memory system, nothing more. I even explained to him at the time of the interview that I learned my memory system from Roth's book, if he should like to take it up. Actually, the demonstration proved only that visual imagery works in this fashion; I am sorrowfully afraid, Mr. Rosenberg, that no matter how I performed a memory system, it would not make me look like a genius, a mind reader, or a mystic, for I am certainly none of these things, and did not try to impress the veteran feature writer in that regard (for he has been long a pro at seeing through ruses such as you mention.) You should have been listening to Radio Station WCAU last Wednesday evening. For four hours I endeavored to explain the why's and wherefore's of my modus operandi of making it rain. That was the Jack McKinney Show. And then again today, on the Ed Harvey's Radio Show, WCAU, I went further into the matter. The trick memory system has absolutely nothing to do with it, Mr. Rosenberg. I wish you would be a good reporter, first get your facts straight. FURTHERMORE, ON LOOKING AT YOUR LIST, I SHOULD LIKE TO STATE UNEQUIVOCABLY THAT MY BASKET WAS NOT SITTING IN YOUR PUDDLES, SIR!! Mrs. R. B., after I got through howling at your rainmaking methods, the thought occurred to me... then and if I ever get a vacation with my wife, and it rains... I hope sincerely that she has the priceless sense of humor that you have. A sense of humor in a wife is worth more than diamonds, rubies and pearls. LIKE YOURSELF In closing, may I point out that the only good rain that Philadelphia has had these past weeks was last Wednesday night, when I went on the air at WCAU to deliver my message re UFO's, and today, when I again went on the air at WCAU. It is a fact that I told Mr. Ed Harvey last Friday that I would do my best to deliver an excellent rain on Monday (today). I believe that this is exactly what has occurred. Station WCAU Anyone interested in my rainmaking work can write to me at the Congress Hotel here in Philadelphia, and I will answer every sincere letter. Ted Owens "THE RAINMAKER" c/o Congress Hotel 1336 Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Love - Daddy P.S. I deliberately brought in storms on both days of my radio broadcasts... therefore Philadelphia owes its present rain to Mr. Darling at the Bulletin; Jack McKinney and Tom Spence, of WCAU; and Mr. Ed Harvey, of the Ed Harvey Show, WCAU. 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 106 of 246 8/10/65 P3 ...a signal from the UFO's that they are listening, and are in action. Have you looked at your weather maps lately? That is precisely what has happened. But in the near future I do not think that the East Coast will benefit too much, re drought-relief. They will need the services of a rain-maker; namely, me. And anyone wanting to rent my unique services can write to me care of your paper. For that matter, anyone wanting to write me a personal letter can do that; and I will also be glad to send my message from the UFO's to the American people...the one that Jack McKinney read on his program...to any of your readers who wish it. Sincerely, Ted Owens "THE RAIN MAKER" === Page 107 of 246 8/10/65 p2 2 that my storms feature lightning...remember in my Bulletin story, that I said my specialty was lightning? Also, I pointed out to him that on another occasion here in Philadelphia I had endeavored to "aim" lightning at a radio tower downtown, in Center City. Also I aimed lightning at any power-stations in the area, as an experiment. Remember this. I also pointed out to Mr. Harvey that the rule, for my storms, is that they literally cause disaster-areas. They are violent, full of lightning attacks, and flood. Mr. Harvey jokingly asked me not to flood Philadelphia. So after the show, I went home to my apartment. And it rained, hard. It came down in sheets. But one thing was missing...lightning. So I told my wife that I would add the missing ingredient, and went out onto a balcony outside my apartment, and worked for lightning, lots of it. The results were better than I hoped for. The next rainfall, after an interval, carried lightning with it...lots of it. And, mark this, next morning I read in the paper that lightning had hit a tower, not here but in New Jersey, and knocked out the power for the police. Also it hit a power-supply, and knocked out the power for many many houses. Just as I had mentioned it in the afternoon...as if my little UFO friends had been listening and decided to include it. Fantastic? It happened, just that way. Now I have another assignment to carry out for Mr. Harvey. Keep the sky clear of rain Thursday night, for his ball-game. And for Mr. Harvey, it is a downright pleasure. Before closing, would like to point out that on the Jack McKinney show I told the audience that rain would suddenly appear all over the United States 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 108 of 246 Evening Bulletin Thursday, August 10, 1955 Dear Sir: Something for you to print, of an unusual nature, if you would like it. This is a recap for the past week for my friends in Philadelphia, of the excitement in the air, with the Rain Maker, straight from the Rain Maker. Last Wednesday Jack McKinney had me on his show at WCAU, and we fought like cats and dogs, in a very friendly way, over rain-making and UFO's. For four hours, which is a long time. Mr. McKinney (a fine man, by the way, even if he does not believe in UFO's, ha ha) sought to pin down the facts on my rain-making, and especially since it is connected with the workings of flying-saucers. For help (as if he needed any) he had Lou Spence, who helped me finish my sentences and dot my i's. Of course, I had already made several storms over Philadelphia..........and written well ahead of time to the papers here that I was making them, (see the Bulletin story.) And, before the show, I had worked on a storm to dramatize my appearance on his show. It began at the beginning of the evening show, and did Philadelphia a bit of good, water-wise. Then, on Friday, Mr. Ed Harvey called me and asked me to appear on his show the following Monday, at WCAU, and he specifically asked me to make it storm that day (yesterday) Monday. I told him that I would do my best. So, all week-end, I worked for a storm, but in an unusual way, for me. I had to time the storm to hit Monday, instead of Sunday, which is my favorite storm day next to Saturday. The storm-materials were all present and accounted for on Sunday, and I fought to hold them in check. Then, on Monday, I released them. It rained a bit in the afternoon, and I went on the Ed Harvey Show. Now, listen carefully..........on the show I told Mr. Harvey 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 109 of 246 Wednesday August 18, 1965 Editor Philadelphia Daily News Dear Sir: Here is an interesting item, if you would like to print it. In your story "Blonde Gets Black Eye As 'Thing' Attacks Car", in your paper 8/17/65, the mother of the girl who was attacked...and they were both in the car during the attack by the 7-foot, 400 lb. "monster"...has the name of Rose Owens (I refer you to the clipping.) The girl who was attacked, then, was named Owens before her marriage. A strange coincidence. The Wednesday previously I appeared on The Jack McKinney Show, Station WCAU, here in Philadelphia, and Mr. McKinney was kind enough to read a 3-page letter, or message, given to me by the UFO intelligences to pass on to the American people. So what? What is the coincidence? My name is Ted Owens, "The Rain Maker." Why not ask your readers if they would like to read this strange message from the UFO's? I will enclose a copy then, and if readers contact your paper, asking for it, if you wish you can print it. I offered it to the Bulletin for printing, but they have evidently decided not to do so, for whatever reasons. The "monster" in your story, above, could be connected with the UFO's...note that the womens' car stalled, which is a usual occurrence when a UFO is near. Kills the power. Owens === Page 110 of 246 (Exact copy of story which appeared in The Philadelphia Daily News, 8/17/65) "BLONDE GETS BLACK EYE AS 'THING' ATTACKS CAR" Monroe, Michigan (UPI) What weighs more than 400 pounds, smells moldy, growls like a mad dog, and dislikes automobiles? Answer X - The Monroe County Monster. That was the latest on the "thing" that has been sighted here and there in Monroe County during the past two months by at least 16 persons, including Christine Van Acker, 17-year old blonde. Miss Van Acker, who goes to a beautician school here, has a black eye she said was inflicted by the monster Friday night. State police were checking her story and patrolling the area at night northeast of this southern Michigan City. Miss Van Acker gave this story of the encounter: "I was driving mother, Mrs. Rose Owens, home. Suddenly there was this bump and a hairy arm grabbed me by the hair. It wasn't human or anything. I tried to go faster but the car stalled." The girl fainted. Mrs. Owens, who jumped out of the car and ran for help, described the ordeal like this: "The first I knew there was this bang and an arm came through the window. ; Christine yelled, 'Mommy, help me! Oh my God, help!' "I told her to get the car going...but it stalled. The monster had his paw entwined in her hair and kept banging her head on the side of the car. I decided the best thing to do was go for help." "When I got back with other people, Christine was semi-conscious, and the monster was gone." "The monster was at least seven feet tall, weighed about 400 pounds, and it had a long reach. It was all covered with black, bristly hair, towards the end of the hair it was silver. You couldn't see its face, there was so much hair." "And it growled. It had a real growl, and definitely it was not a bear." Christine said she was sure it was not a bear "because bears have fur and this thing had prickly hair like thorns" She also said she was sure it was not a prankster "because nobody human would do anything like that." The monster sightings have occurred in Frenchtown and Ashe townships within the last 60 days. One man reported the monster climbed onto his car, and thumped on the roof and fenders before disappearing into the woods. A woman reported she saw the monster and it smelled moldy. Etc. === Page 111 of 246 8/11/65 p2 2 this letter was written, and sent to you, you have spent a great deal of time travelling about, inspecting disaster areas...catastrophe after catastrophe, as my letter warned. I would venture to state that never, in the entire history of the United States, has there been a year so filled with natural catastrophes as July, 1964, to July, 1965. To name just a few catastrophes...and areas...the disastrous fires on the California Coast; the disastrous floods last Christmas on the California Coast; the giant earthquake in Oregon-Washington; the horrendous damage from Hurricane Cleo, Hurricane Dora, Hurricane Isbell, Hurricane Hilda; crippling floods in North/South Carolina; disastrous floods in the Midwest States; unprecedented tornado attacks in the Midwest; and so on and so on for a long long list. You will note that I state on the first page of last year's letter: "...the aforementioned 'catastrophes' are merely a sample of what lies ahead." This was correct, absolutely. In closing, the UFO's have instructed me to point out that the paragraph of last year's letter which refers to causing missiles to explode in their silos, is now referred to for a reason all their own. (Not mine.) They caused the missile silo tragedy, in order to direct my attention back to this letter, in order for me to write you another letter, one year later...pointing out that this particular paragraph states that it is extremely important that the reason for my "PK" ability be understood by all. The reason. The causal-factor, as Mr. Dunn of your CIA put it to me. And that is...UFO's. Respectfully, Ted Owens (PK Man - Rain Maker) Congress Hotel 1336 Walnut Philadelphia, Pa. 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 112 of 246 Wednesday, August 11, 1965 President Johnson, The White House. Dear Mr. President: This letter is of the utmost importance to you. Please find attached copy of letter I sent to you almost a year ago. Also State Dept. and other Govt. agencies. A more prophetic "intelligence report" you will never find. The missile silo that just blew up, or whatever happened to it...see paragraph marked in red. This is further emphasized at this particularly peculiar time because of the "rain making" work that I am doing in Philadelphia, predicting rainstorms in advance and then bringing them in on schedule, or as close to schedule as possible. So far I have not missed, and would be surprised if I did. Monday's storm in Philadelphia was made by myself, and the lightning attacks co-incide with other letters which you should have in your file, of weeks ago, when the UFO's said they would provide lightning attacks to prove my connection with them. At the time this letter was written, almost a year ago, I believed that I was in contact with the intelligence behind Nature; only lately have I found out that I am in contact with UFO's, as proved by the UFO sighting over the South Pole, and my earlier letter before that, predicting the event in detail sans UFO. Therefore I believe at this time the UFO's are, at a year's interval, warning the people of the U.S. once more...re my "Message to the American people from the UFO's" as read over the radio from Station WCAU last Wednesday, August 4, 1965, on the Jack McKinney Show. Note that in my letter of last year states: "Or else Nature will chastise the erring country with catastrophe after catastrophe. Earthquake, fire, famine, flood, sickness. Nature will select the proper catastrophes to bring the unbelieving country to its knees." This sentence should make great sense to you...because since 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 113 of 246 8/25/64? P93 Let Kruschev say "God and Religion - phooey! The State will give you security." Let Papa Duvalier say "My voodoo devils are greater than your God." Let Castro say "Cuba and Russia are friends...we need no God." But Nature wishes to make some drastic changes. Working from my own country, and protected by my government, I will direct certain powers of Nature onto any country filled with the spirit of hate and killing and war. My own country, observing the results, will, when peace in the world is assured, lay aside all weapons of war - or else. And return to a stronger faith in the absolute power of God and Nature than now exists among its peoples. Perhaps from reading this it will be thought that I am 'some kind of nut' - or religious fanatic. But what you may think is really irrelevant and immaterial, for Nature will be heard. It's voice is coming through, loud and clear. You can expect to continue to see signs and wonders, until you believe. Until Nature's voice is recognized, and fully obeyed. H. T. Owens (The PK Man) 6309 Wildwood Trail Myrtle Beach South Carolina === Page 114 of 246 8/25/64? Pg 2 2 Nature (God) is dedicated to the perpetuation of the human race of mankind. But mankind, at present, is seemingly dedicated toward its own obliteration and destruction. "Man's inhumanity to man" is the banner now flying. Nature, therefore, must step in, in an unusual manner, and show the world, by demonstration, that Nature... not mankind... controls the preservation of the species. That Nature's own secrets hold far greater power and scope than do H-bombs and stockpiles of war materials. Nature has, oddly enough, appointed me as its human voice and representative... to speak its intelligence to you. Furthermore, Nature is fully aware that without signs and wonders you wouldn't believe me. Nature has, therefore, endowed me with unbelievable powers - a small demonstration of which I have already made. This is what Nature is saying, through my pen: First, it is absolutely necessary that my own country and Government (which has the Bible and Christianity at its core) be convinced of the basic truth of this message. Nature is eager, and completely, wholeheartedly, willing to back me up in any constructive move to bring this about. (Should I misuse this infinite power placed in my hands by a trusting but omnipresent Nature, then it will transfer the power to a more worthy human, to carry on the program. People can be stopped, but Nature never. Then, after my own Government is convinced, this dynamic power of Nature will be directed, focused, upon the mouldy, rotting spots of mankind - and these spots eliminated, so that mankind will stop deteriorating and grow healthy. Mark this: All materials of warfare must be transformed into plowshares - or else. Or else Nature will chastise the erring country with catastrophe after catastrophe. Earthquake, fire, famine, flood, sickness. Nature will select the proper catastrophes to bring the unbelieving country to its knees. ruined *By this later date, Sept. 25, have successfully brought down Titan III; 000, the Satellite; and directed Hurricane Dora onto Cape Kennedy. 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 115 of 246 August 25, 1964 pg 1 Lightning struck, and left its mark, on a Titan missile at Cape Kennedy. It was my lightning. Next, Hurricane Cleo formed and descended on . . . Cape Kennedy, Florida. It was my hurricane. You are, of course, quite skeptical, and will think, of course, that it would be impossible to be true. Anyone can check with the Space Agency at Cape Kennedy . . . or the State Department in Washington, D. C., and if they tell the truth they will tell you that I informed them weeks in advance of the above two events. I even wired the Space Agency that I could stop Hurricane Cleo from striking it . . . even before Cleo reached Miami. They did not reply, so I had no alternative but to let Cleo take her route, which I had laid out for her. (Over three hundred million dollars in damage could have been avoided.) But, there are more important matters than a few hundred million dollars loss . . . hence this unusual communication. And, I might add, the aforementioned 'catastrophes' are merely a sample of what lies ahead. Do I think that I've been elected to 'save the world'? No. Do I think, perhaps, that I am God? No. Or Jesus? No. I am not insane or psychotic. I am a human being, utterly astonished at what is being dealt out through me, by Nature. And, I might add, I am quite willing to accept the awesome responsibility given to me by Nature . . . in spite of the lumps that I know I shall receive from my fellow humans. (It is extremely important that the reason for my "PK" ability (to cause storms; to direct lightning bolts; to form and guide hurricanes; to cause fires far away from myself; to sink subs far away in the ocean; to cause missiles to explode in their silos) be understood by all.) 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 116 of 246 Tuesday, August 31, 1965 Mr. Dunn, Chief U.S. Weather Bureau Hurricane Center Miami, Florida Dear Mr. Dunn: You and I are going to have some fun this hurricane season. I am the man who wrote you in 1964. I successfully ran three hurricanes across the Cape Kennedy area...and also managed to direct one to the Michoud Space Complex in Louisiana. Last year I discovered a method of making hurricanes (have sent out 1,000 hurricane-hunter groups, of PK (psychokineses) several months ago...) then guiding them; and bringing them to life after they die. (Brought 2 back to life last year) Last year I managed to make the hurricane hook left into Florida; a first in a century, the papers said. Also Cleo followed my "PK" map. And one other...I forget offhand now, not having my books at hand. Nevertheless, let us have a game...Dunn versus P K Man. I am producing hurricanes and typhoons. But I am interested only in the hurricanes, insofar as I can guide them to target-area...Daytona Beach to Miami...which area is named "Electro." You and the U.S. Govt. try to stop them...and I will bring them in. It will be very interesting. I was going to bring them up the East Coast in order to bring rain to New York...but was rejected by everyone when I offered to break the East Coast drought...so now I am going to do this. After the hurricanes either hit the target, Electro...or get away from me completely (only one did last year..the rest were hits) then I will take them off to the right as soon as they draw near Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and send them off to sea. Do not take this lightly. I warn you most seriously. You would be well advised to contact Central Intelligence Agency and NASA for copies of my file, before you pass this letter off as a "crank" letter. And, as I wrote you last year, would greatly appreciate it if you would name one hurricane after my daughter Lornie...Hurricane Lornie. Respectfully, Ted Owens (PK Man) 111 Spruce, #33 Philadelphia, Pa. P.S. Even "seeding" will not stop them, because I have done a little something with the PK to beat seeding. 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 117 of 246 2 8/10/65 put satellites (rain or sun, etc.) over it, and throw so many black, or red "units" at it...etc., they could understand this, and rapidly acted. and how they acted, as you well know. The next logical thing now is for someone to hire me to break the drought for New York...or Philadelphia...or the entire East Coast, which would be as easy, as you know. Following the breaking of the drought will be even bigger things, the little "voice" seeps through to me, like osmosis. You were right, one of you, I can't remember which, when you told me that you thought there was something even bigger ahead than my PK discoveries. You were so...right. Nice thing about it is, I was so bored, just causing storms, bringing down airplanes, lousing up military operations, making earthquakes with Emmy-Emma (Rick's brainchild.) Now things are moving, at last. Funny that the Air Force, the CIA, the US Govt., and the Rhines haven't been jumping up and down to get hold of me. They have my letter-file, calling dozens of big events in advance, in detail. I really do not understand it. The US Government probably doesn't want to be forced by the UFO's to pay attention...Johnson, especially. But they are dealing with UFO's, a far greater power than any other existing on this earth. God help them if they delay too much longer. I warned them weeks ago that a terrible blow would be struck at the US Government if they didn't pay attention; and within a week the bomber in Viet Nam turned around, with nobody in it, and flew back and crashed, with all its bombs, on U S Military Headquarters in their allied city, Nan Trang, or something like that. Then today one of their missile silos "accidentally" blew up. They are so dense and stupid. But enough of that. Write often, if you can. Lornie, honey, I like those 15¢ Optimos. They are good cigars. Or those Pats that come 7 in a pack. Love & Kisses - Daddy PK Man === Page 118 of 246 Tuesday, August 10, 1965 Dear Lonnie, and Rick... - enjoyed your letter, Rick my boy. Don't worry, son, can you remember a time when your daddy didn't keep punching? That'll be the day. All hell is breaking loose in Philadelphia...as a matter of fact, I almost ruined Philadelphia last night. Remember how you and I used to stand out in the yard in Phoenix, and bring on those gangbusters? Well, I brought one on in style, and the results are enclosed, in clippings. You'll be proud, and you'll remember Phoenix...and Los Angeles...etc etc. The beauty of it was...Ed Harvey, who has the radio show for CBS here called "Talk of Philadelphia"...called me last Friday and asked me to make a storm tailor-made for this Monday, the day I was to appear on his program, so that he could be telling about it over the weekend. I told him that I would, and set to work. The weather was hot and clear, then. I worked like the dickens Saturday and Sunday...throwing a lot of oomph into it, but also working to hold it back until Monday, so that it wouldn't bust loose Sunday. I'll enclose a copy of letter to the paper here which am sending in, and it tells you the rest, to save wear and tear on my fingers. The point is, at last, kids, at last, people "out there" are beginning to find out what you have known all along. That I can control storms (have made, and written into the papers well in advance, five good storms now) and perhaps other things as well. Also, and more important, Jack McKinney, on that 4-hour brain-buster last Wednesday, I forced into reading a message from the UFO's to the American people. Now, my storm-work of course carries a lot of weight...and I am positive that the message will get across. Am enclosing a copy. Am absent-minded, you know, and don't remember whether I did before or not. Listen, kids, all those "units" and things were a sort of vocabulary that the UFO's were giving me...it was their way of understanding...so when I would put something into a PK bubble, and 07/09/2025 16:13 === Page 119 of 246 8/12/65 p6 the storm here, all areas around benefitted from it. okay. Tuesday came. Dozens of different homes had been hit by bolts of lightning. One lightning bolt came inside a man's kitchen while he was cooking supper, and hit his stove. Lightning hit a police radio tower. A bolt hit the Willow Grove (suburb) power supply and knocked out the power. A bolt hit a hospital. And so on. Nobody was hurt. Tuesday there were black clouds in the sky. I knew the UFO's had plenty of materials if I wanted more. But I didn't. I wanted it clear. I signalled them strongly to hold off all rain. Tuesday passed - a dark, cloudy day just wanting to rain. But it didn't. Wednesday came. Dark boiling clouds overhead. Paper said 6 chances in 10 of rain. I signalled no rain. There was no rain. Today, Thursday, all clouds were gone. Sunny & clear. So Ed Harvey is happy tonight at his ball game. (But Philly could have had two more fine storms. A pity) However, I'm choking off rain out here now. In the PK bubble with sun cats, plus other mechanisms. If they want rain now - they play ball with the UFO's. If they don't play ball - there'll be no water. No offers yet. Write Love & kisses, Dad. * Told them to swing the rain west & dump it there. === Page 120 of 246 8/12/65 P5 "Ted," Martha called from inside the window, "why is it the rain stops each time you begin to signal?" Yep. Even she noticed it. (But the day was full of surprises. On the radio show I had told Harvey that every area I had hit with PK had become an official disaster area. He'd laughed and asked me for Heaven's sake not to flood Philly.) Well. After an hour the storm stopped, and I left to go to the YMCA to type some letters. When I came out of the Y, all hell broke loose. You've seen some of my little beauties - knocking out Baggio's windows, lightning bolts hitting our house etc. This storm was a giant compared to those midgets you saw. Rain was driving down so hard you couldn't see. Cars were stalled in the street. Bolts of lightning were hitting in every direction. It was majestic. It was a regular symphony of a storm. (Days before I had told Martha I wanted Monday's storm to hit Philly - pow! and tear it up! Chew it up! Rain so thick you couldn't see a foot away. Lightning everywhere.) In every detail - this was the storm. You read the papers description of it but they couldn't do it justice. New York City got a billion gallons of rain-water from this Philly flood (yes, it flooded.) When I brought === Page 121 of 246 8/12/65 pg 4 personal favor. He was going to an important baseball game Thursday night - could I keep it nice, clear, & no rain that night? (It was raining outside when I asked this.) I assured him I would take the rain away from Phila. for that night. Now during the program, I discussed how I "aimed" lightning - had aimed at two Phila targets in earlier storms, a radio tower and the power-supply of the city. I'd actually managed to hit the power supply of the city! And I told how I liked lightning - my storms had my "lightning trademark" - it is my specialty. I went home then it began to come down in solid sheets. But no lightning. "Hell!" I told Martha, taking a drink of cold beer, "that's a good storm, but I've got to put more lightning in it!" So I went outside and signalled the UFO's (I have an all-new system now) and told them lightning - lots of lightning. Suddenly there were some lightning flashes and I knew they'd heard me. Took me four or five attempts to get it over to them, though - and each time I'd begin again, the heavy rain would stop. When I'd finish signalling the rain would start up again. It was weird. Like they'd stop the rain temporarily to find out if I was wanting something else instead. === Page 122 of 246 8/12/65 3 by the Central Room that she was still hooked up long distance and was listening to the show over the phone!! Ha ha ha!! Anyway - on the way over to the radio station that Wed. evening the skies were clear. I sent signals to the UFO's desperately to make it rain, fast - to coincide with my program appearance. Half hour later, as I was walking up to the door of the studio, rain began to pour down. During the program people call up, put themselves on the air, and ask questions. I had to answer them. It was great fun. It lasted four hours. And rain soaked the town. It was a nice, quiet downpour. Steady rain all night. Two days later, Friday, I got a call from Ed Harvey, another famous radio personality here with "Talk of Philadelphia" program. He wanted me to be on his program on Monday, Aug. 9. Also, he wanted me to make a storm for Monday - so he could advertise it in advance. (Friday was a smashing, clear day.) I told him I would bring in a rainstorm on Monday + appear on the show. He was nice on the program. Asked me why on earth the Govt. didn't use my services. Why New York didn't hire me. (Oh, it was raining by now lightly, outside.) He told the audience, looking me straight in the eye, "Ted there is no doubt whatever in my mind that you could break the drought on the East Coast." He reached a === Page 123 of 246 8/12/65 Things had been predicted in advance by me - or caused by me. They asked me, real sneakily, which to call? CIA? NASA? Jeane? Cayce? Mangels? I recommended Cayce, on the terrific double-prediction on Pres. Johnson, 3 months in advance. Aha! Said McKrinny - he must be your co-host. So we'll call Mangels, that all right? Sure, be my guest, I told him. So they got hold of Jean - she came through loud & clear. "Miss Mangels," asked McKrinny, "is it true Ted Owens predicted there would be a major earthquake on the West Coast within just a few days - and it happened the next day?" "Yes," said Jeanne, "he did. He absolutely did." McKrinny & Spence frowned, their eyes bulged, and they stared at me unbelievably. "Well," says Mac, "he says he caused the earthquake. Do you believe that?" "No," she answers, "I won't go along with that. I don't think so." "Uh huh," says Mac. "Now did he make any other predictions to you, that came true." "Yes," she said, "he did." "How many of his predictions came true?" "I would say four out of five." They thanked her - forgot her - and went ahead with the program. Half an hour later they were told === Page 124 of 246 Thursday, Aug. 12, '65 -- Lorrie and Rick Dear pals: Time to sit down now and fill you in on all the excitement. You read the Bulletin story on The Rain Maker. Philadelphia has had only 7 rains since the 1st of June -- and I made all 7. Before each one, usually a week, I wrote the papers and told them it was coming. So I was invited to be on the famous (around here) Jack McKinney "Night Show." I was supposed to be on one hour. After me came a U.S. Senator. After him, Jack Carter, the comedian so much on Ed Sullivan's show. All McKinney knew was I claimed to be a rain-maker. PK Man he'd never met. He met PK Man 5 minutes after the show started. I laid out my files in front of the battery of mikes and started to work. (I'd been cued in advance by the 'Sir' what to do.) The hour flew by. McKinney and Spence, a man he'd brought in to help attack me -- were sweating blood, and getting nowhere. They'd prepared a perfect case for attacking mere rain-making, but the PK and all I'd done with it -- plus UFO's, were sinking them rapidly. So McKinney on a station break -- told Spence to call the Senator and Carter at his hotel, and cancel them out. "Boy, I've made two enemies tonight!" he told me, gritting his teeth. The second hour they got a bright idea. They'd call one of my letter-file contacts, unexpectedly, long-distance, to verify my claims that all these impossible === Page 125 of 246 July 11, 1964 Lomie I wrote you a letter, some time ago, telling you we are at the Congress Hotel, Rm. 600, 13th & Walnut, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Also I sent you a giant letter, describing the circus. But you have not written. I want a letter from you telling me you got my long circus letter. Put to you kids away from you, even if it caused me lots of trouble. I expect that same privilege to be given me. If I do not hear from you - then I will know you are not being allowed to get my letters. Then I'll let PK settle the matter. Love, Dad P.S. Enclosed is program from Pres. Johnson's shindig, which we did Saturday. === Page 126 of 246 Note: Attached letter - wrote George day before Adlai dropped dead - warning them!! July 16, 1965, Friday Dear Lornie: I enjoyed your letter. It is good to know for sure that you will get my mail, all of it. Never once, not one time, did I interfere or stop a letter from Pat to you kids...even if it meant your getting upset, as it usually did. But I figured it was more important for you to hear from your mother, than for me to have to handle a problem. And I was right. Bet you didn't dream that all those nights I spent working with PK, and clippings, were being guided and watched over by flying saucer intelligences, did you? Wow! And now, there is absolutely no doubt of it. You have the clipping about the saucer that parked over the South Pole and allowed pictures to be taken of it, and a newspaper report written about it...and knocked out the electromagnetic power in the base......and you have my letter written earlier about this happening, although of course I didn't dream a saucer would bring it about. So, Rick was right after all. It is the saucers, and not the "intelligence behind Nature." Or, maybe they are. And that would explain our weird trip across the U.S., mostly across lonely desert and mountains, and my sleeping on top of the car at night. It explains a lot of things. For instance, who and what was Eric? Where did he disappear to? Nobody knew him; nobody could trace him after he left us. He just plain vanished into thin air, with that woman. But, they parked nose to nose with our car....moved us from broke into about $300 per week; a house, everything in the house....just in time to guide all the tornadoes! If you will remember, just after meeting Eric, I got really "hot" with PK, and began doing tremendous things with it. Still am, as a matter of fact. Back to ordinary things...the baby, Beau, is a doll. And getting bigger by leaps and bounds. And spends most of his time that way...leaping and bounding. Also, he is a little bounder, in more ways than one. But he's learning. Can't talk yet; isn't completely toilet trained yet. But boy, can he point! He absolutely captivates anyone, just anyone, passing by or on the bus or in the restaurant....because he strolls around making friends with everybody, and they light up like a light-bulb with him. Lornie, about my use of PK. You are an utter idiot to think I would ever use it on you or Rick. Of course I wouldn't. Besides, you are protected anyway, so it wouldn't do any good if I did. Which I wouldn't. At one time I liked Jim Shannon, but he alienated me. I couldn't care less now if he got in the way of a PK ripple. As for Pat...you have my absolute word that I would never harm her in any way whatsoever...and especially with PK. She has always been, and will always be, very dear to me, and one of my favorite people. We have had, and have, our differences, but this is nothing..... as far as I am concerned she is to be as protected from PK as you kids. Those people that I hit with PK, Lornie, are very rare. As you know. As a matter of fact, remember how Mangels used to insult me to my face, and make me mad...but I held back the PK. Remember? I did not use it on her. However, Lornie, I will make an exception in the case of anyone blocking me from you kids, interfering with my family, trying to hurt my loved ones, in any way. This area is a deadly area, and no trespassing is allowed. I once offered to Pat, from Dallas, to fly to Los Angeles and whip that Frank, who was bothering her...even though we were separated and had no part of one another any more. Because, I still loved her. And in a way, always will. People do not change that much. Cigars? Am very particular. There is a place in L.A. has my favorite cigars. I'll send the address. Love & Roses - Daddy. === Page 127 of 246 Lornie + Rick July 16, 1965, Friday Mr. George Clark, CIA. Dear George: May I refer you to my letter to you of Sunday, April 11, 1965; second paragraph: "Therefore Nature lets me know that currently it is working to create signs and wonders to impress the U.S. Government of the foolish decision it has made with regard to me, its (Nature's) representative. It lets me know that it is going to strike down, by health, accident, etc., officials of the Government until such time as the U. S. Government obeys its wishes." After this plain, crystal clear warning, George, Senator Johnston died, and Pres. Johnson attended the funereal; Adlai Stevenson just died, and Pres. Johnson attended the funereal; also many key military men have expired since April. ---------- May I refer you to my letter to you of July 9, 1965; second paragraph: "Also, in the same letter (of March 14, 1965) I predicted Pres. Johnson's family member, or close friend, would pass away or be lost, by August...and that he would cry and grieve. Well, it isn't August yet, is it." --- And in the paper yesterday, George, it pointed out that Pres. Johnson cried with regard to Stevenson...had tears in his eyes, is the way they put it, I believe.... which would make my prediction a hit. You might go on and read that third paragraph: "Notice lately how government officials are falling like bowling pins? Reedy out with sore feet. General Taylor out, with sore something. Dirkson out of action, in the hospital, with sore stomach. A Congressman got smashed with a truck, not long ago - and so on. The "PK pattern" is on now and working, after a time-lag, and you can tell." ---------- Now, important, may I refer you to my letter of a few days ago, July 13, 1965, last paragraph: "One last point before closing. I spent our last money today to send a wire to LBJ in Texas. After today we'll have no food, no place to stay, nothing. Nature ...or the saucers...or whatever it is...isn't going to be happy about this, George. They were very unhappy when I came to Washington and saw you and Dunn, and was turned down several times. Things have gotten very rough since then for the U.S., if you'll count up the catastrophes. Etc." Next day, George, Stevenson was struck down....did the saucers wish to make their point on this? Yes, they most emphatically did. They are using many ways right now to try to get recognition from the U.S. Government; drought, is one. Elimination of key people in the U.S. Government is another. Constant harassing of the military and space work, is another. Sure, the U.S. Government can ignore my (and the saucer) warnings....but at what horrible cost in lives and dollars to the U.S.?

They won't name the city, for security reasons (theirs). (2) They also state that they will begin an attack campaign on the U.S. with lightning. Lightning attacks everywhere. There will be an unusual abundance of lightning bolts striking everywhere, everything, soon. ..........the above in an effort to further prove that P K Man is the ir representative and that they can communicate with PK Man. Note: I told you some time ago that "they" were going to hit the U.S. with the phenomena and afflictions of Moses time. See where they are having the first occurrences of cholera since 1811 (I believe it is) in Washington, D.C. (They had like-illnesses in Moses time, in order to convince the Pharaoh.) Also, they will continue their anti-personnel work. P K MAN Lorne - tell Rick that he made our old car the prettiest car I've ever seen on the inside. Only trouble with the car it wouldn't go & take too much money to fix it. But the inside of the car way he had it fixed, was beautiful. I was very proud of him.

Nature will, in the near future, change the North and South Poles. As the message came to me, I believe it will use extreme heat to affect those two places and change the magnetic condition of the Poles. Nature added that you won't have to check with any Bureau on it...that the result will be strong enough to make the newspapers, where you can read about it. Note: this is the first time anything like this has occurred. I don't know what Nature is talking about, or what it plans. Will be interesting to see. (2) Exercise Silver Lance was useless, for test purposes. An invalid experiment. Any results from the Exercise are not worth the paper they are printed on. Why? Because Silver Lance was conducted in a growing, active PK field, with a wide variety of mechanisms at work in the field that would undoubtedly affect the Exercise to a large extent. The field is Electra; the California coast. If you doubt this statement, just look at Electro, in Florida, and what has happened there in my first PK field. Since July the entire area has been like an elephant with the nervous shakes staggering around drunk in a china shop. There have been hurricanes criss-crossing the place; planes have been falling down; President Johnson narrowly escaped bad injury on two occasions; the Space Eye burned down; and over a dozen rockets and missiles either blew up, fell down, or got up and went haywire. So don't tell me the PK doesn't work on an area. So, Silver Lance, to be a true experiment in the logical sense of the word, would have to be held somewhere else, without PK affecting it, to get a valid idea of its results, test-wise. Check? Hoping the U.S. Government will use this tool, sometime this week, I remain PK Man 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 132 of 246 THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER, ### sighted at 2 S. Pole Bases # 'Flying Saucer' Is Reported SANTIAGO, Chile, July 8 (AP). -- From the Antarctic Thursday came official reports that a mysterious lens-shaped flying object, maneuvering and moving at great speed, was sighted last Saturday. A Chilean base commander in the Antarctic reported the object was "yellowish red, changing to green, yellow and orange." In Buenos Aires, the Navy issued a communique saying personnel at Argentina's Antarctic base saw the flying object and photographed it. Mario Jahn Barrera, commander of the Chilean base, told the Defense Ministry by radio that it would be too much to say that "all of us saw a flying saucer, one of these science-fiction things." "However," he continued, "it was something real, an object sued in Buenos Aires. "The object was yellowish red," Jahn said, "changing to green, yellow and orange. It would zigzag quickly. Then it was stopped and we promptly reached for field glasses, telescopes, anything at hand to sight it. We watched as it remained quietly there for about 20 minutes." Jahn said a corporal took color pictures but there are no facilities for developing the film. The men must wait for eight months to be relieved to have the film developed on the mainland. === Page 133 of 246 Copy - Lonnie & Rick X July 19, 1965 Philadelphia Inquirer Call Bulletin Newspapers, The Editors Gentlemen: Yesterday you just enjoyed my storm which I referred to in my letter to you of July 14...just five days ago...and I quote: "I am going to deliver some freak weather here in Philadelphia, that will teach you a lesson. Lightning displays of an unusual nature...rain - floods...near tornado winds." Well, is it not so? Can you deny that yesterday you had a whopping storm? And lightning bolts struck all around Philadelphia...destroying $50,000 worth of business goods? And...the high winds blew down trees. I told you ... when it comes, to remember The Rainmaker. For your information I was in Rittenhouse Square the afternoon of Saturday, June 19, having called down the terrific storm then...and even told my wife that I would direct a lightning bolt to knock out the city power...which it did. Then I worked hard to bring in the next big rainstorm, but was not in Rittenhouse Square when it finally broke through and came down. But I was right there in Rittenhouse Square yesterday, calling down the storm, and especially the lightning, which is my trademark, you might say. Bear in mind that I could do this for New York City, in much greater volume and consistency. Notice that these two big storms...three, rather, have come on the weekends. That is because I have to work at something else during the week and cannot turn my full power and concentration on rain-making. I do not understand why you do not give me a story...so that I will have a chance, through your story, of being tried by some area in New Jersey or New York...and help those areas thereby by relief from the drought. Well, I will give Philadelphia more lightning...more wind...more rain. I like it cool, and as I say, the lightning is my trademark. THE RAINMAKER, c/o Owens Congress Hotel 12th and Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Kids...I brought in another terrific storm yesterday, standing there in the pouring rain directing the lightning to strike...had been working two days on it, just like Phoenix. Was a beaut! The clipping for it attached. Discovered a very weird thing last night...it was so hot in our rooms, I would guess 90-100, because our ventilation is poor...sweat was streaming off of me, dripping down onto my clippings. I went to bed, and put a hand on my chest, and it was as cold as ice-cubes. The area over my lungs, heart, and chest was ice-cold...the rest of me was hot and sweating. Figure that one out. Martha couldn't believe it, and neither could I. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 134 of 246 Daily: Home Delivered TEN CENTS 48 Cents Per Week Torrential Showers In Parts of Area Water Crisis Eased July 14, 1965 COPY Inquirer Call-Bulletin - newspapers Gentlemen: Shame on you. My name is "The Rainmaker" - or "P K Man" - and two weeks ago I wrote you, and called you also, to the effect that I was in the process of making a big storm for Philadelphia, to prove my ability... so that you would give me a write up... so that I might get an opportunity to perform in the New York-New Jersey areas, and end their drought for them. So, over the weekend you had your biggest storm in six months... just as I worked for it, and called it. It made the front pages of your newspapers, and it made everyone very happy... this great, big rainstorm in the middle of a drought area. I made our weekend storm, and will make more... for I live here, and do not like hot, dry weather. Therefore Philly will be wetter and cooler than the rest of the U.S. this summer. The people here are lucky that way. But you need to be taught a lesson. I am going to deliver some freak weather here in Philadelphia, that will teach you a lesson. Lightning displays of an unusual nature... rain-floods... near-tornado winds. Takes a few days, or weeks, to accomplish.

KLIMCKE and WILLIAM B. COLLINS Of The Inquirer Staff 7/19 Thundershowers that hit parts of the Upper Delaware River Basin over the weekend swept into Greater Philadelphia on Sunday afternoon, drenching some sections with brief but torrential downpours. The showers have eased the water supply crisis for the time-being at least, according to Robert E. Fish, deputy river master. In Philadelphia sporadic street flooding and minor storm damage were reported in sections struck by the quick-skipping storm. Pea-size hailstones that accompanied the rain rattled against windows of Center City office buildings and West Philadelphia homes, stinging hapless pedestrians as they raced for cover. **30 ARE EVACUATED** Weather observers at International Airport reported that .11 inches of rain fell there during one brief, heavy rainstorm and periods of light rain that followed it. A spokesman said heavier rain, up to nearly an inch, fell in some suburban areas west and northwest of the city. More than 30 persons were evacuated from three three-story apartment buildings on Mount Vernon st. after the brick facing on a 10 by 12 foot section of exterior wall at the rear of the center building collapsed minutes after the storm passed through the area. **12 FLEE BUILDING** Residents of 2029 Mount Vernon st. told police of hearing "a rumble," and feeling their floors sag as the brick facing collapsed. Twelve residents of that building, nine of them young children, fled. Residents were also temporarily evacuated from the two adjacent structures. Lightning knocked two-feet off the top of a double chimney at 5028-30 Rorer ave., Feltonville. The brick crashed to a concrete patio in front of the row-house. Winds felled a number of trees and large branches throughout the city, blocking some traffic lanes temporarily 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 136 of 246 trees and large throughout the city, blocking some traffic lanes temporarily CUTBACK ORDERED Fish said on Sunday that he was issuing orders for a cutback of the amount of water released from New York City and utility company reservoirs into the Delaware. "In the next two days, we will cut back about one third each day," Fish said. "This isn't a whole lot," he added, "but it is some saving, and we'll save what we can." Fish, who is with the U. S. Geological Survey, emphasized that the drought was not over and that the cutback may be a temporary thing. EMERGENCY STILL ON The water emergency declared on July 7 by the Delaware River Basin Commission still is in effect. Invoking its emergency powers, the commission ordered the release of a total of 466 million gallons a day from reservoirs in the upper basin. The action was taken to guarantee the fresh water supply of Philadelphia and New Jersey communities.

Some $50,000 worth of men's furnishings were destroyed. Smoke was seen at the Hamilton Men's Shop, 3630 Germantown ave. by Patrolman Robert Magilton and he turned in the alarm at 5:20 P.M. Battalion Chief Edward McGonigle said lightning had struck a wooden utility a half block away during the short, but intense rainstorm, and was probably responsible for the store fire. Owners of the shop are Frank and Norman Axe. The manager is Jerry Wundohl, of 7023 Calvert st., who told police that there was an inventory of $75,000 in goods in the shop.

J., July 18 -- Four Philadelphians suffered slight burns Sunday afternoon when lightning struck a tree under which they were standing during a thunderstorm at Hammonton Lake Park. Burned were Mrs. Paula Puggi, 18, of 1536 S. Colorado ave.; Rita Raffa, 18, of 1715 S. 10th st.; Mary Price, 16, of 1813 S. Rosewood st.; Phyllis DiPoali, 9, of 2041 Moore st. All were treated for superficial burns at the W. B. Kessler Memorial Hospital here and released. Snow, Rain, Winds Lash Australia Torrential Showers Hit Area, Ease Crisis Continued From First Page from the Atlantic Ocean was pushing upriver. The commission set the desirable flow for the emergency at 1200 cubic feet per second, as measured at the Montague, N. J., gauge across the Delaware from Milford, Pa. Despite the release of the water from the reservoirs, the river had been decreasing almost daily for the last week. "The river had been falling off gradually for one reason--lack of rain in the basin area," Fish said. Here are the average flows measured at Montague beginning last Monday. Monday, 1030 cubic feet per second; Tuesday, 1070; Wednesday, 1030; Thursday, 1030; Friday, 997; Saturday, 980. Fish said that Sunday's flow was averaging approximately 1000, although this was before the full impact of the weekend rains had been felt. A long-range forecast by the U. S. Weather Bureau also brought hope that the relief would be more than temporary. The prediction was that between 4 and 5½ inches of rain will fall in the river basin area of Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey between the middle of July and mid-August. The thunderstorms over Saturday and early Sunday were scattered throughout the upper basin area, with an average of .35 inches falling. RAINFALL IS SPOTY Fish reported that the rain measured .50 inch at New York City's Pepacton reservoir, and .91 inch at New York's Neversink reservoir. On the other hand, the measurement at Lake Wallenpaupak was only .13 inch, Fish said. Lake Wallenpaupak serves as reservoir for the Pennsylvania Power & Light Co., one of two utilities which have been ordered to release water into the Delaware. The other utility is the Orange and Rockland Utilities, Inc., with a reservoir system on the Mongaup River in Sullivan county, N.Y.

The "bad" weather which was such good news canceled a helicopter trip that New Jersey's Gov. Richard J. Hughes had planned. Hughes, who is chairman of the Delaware River Basin Commission, had planned to go aloft with New Jersey Conservation Commissioner Robert A. Roe to tour North Jersey's reservoirs.

"This is some slight improvement. We === Page 139 of 246 Leonid Dick July 15, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA. Dear George: Well, just as I have been predicting in my letters....the "PK" is now reaching out and eliminating top officials of the government. Actually, there have been a bunch eliminated, one way or another, these past few weeks. Stevenson, yesterday, was the biggest so far in terms of status. He will be joined shortly, however, by others of like status. The PK, or the saucers, or whatever, are going to work in earnest at this time....part of the reason, of course, is because of their representative, myself and family, being ignored and not helped along the lines the saucers have in mind. There is absolutely no way the U.S. Government, or any other government, can prevent any of this from happening...except to make friends with the saucer-intelligences the same way the U.S. would make friends with a foreign country. Try to give them what they want and need; do not make them enemies, or goad them into war. I know two weeks ago that one of our top men in government would drop dead, as if an invisible wall had fallen onto them. But I didn't know which one...McNamara, Rusk, Johnson, Stevenson, Humphrey, etc. They are all marked by the saucer-intelligence, I suppose I should tell you, for the same thing that hit Stevenson. There is no warning. Just...that's all. Want to know a peculiar thing that has happened where I just went to work? Sunday last my boss, Mr. Hill, saw his wife have an operation at the hospital. Monday his father had a heart-attack. Tuesday our big brawny guard downstairs, Gene, had a heart-attack, and on the same day one of our top counselors collapsed on the street, reason unknown. They took him to the hospital, then took him home, where he is now. He also is an ex-football player, big and tough, name of Bill Flanagan. This same pattern happened when I worked for Gelman in Washington. Everybody in the place had to go to the doctor or the dentist, for emergency operations, etc., and one woman whom I especially disliked, Rose, had the ceiling fall on her! And this a brand new office in a brand new multi-million dollar building! I am working now, temporarily, for Diagnostic and Relocation Center, 304 Arch St., Phila., Pa. Oh, George, an important bit of information from you. My saucer friends will pass this along to you...the Viet Cong and Chinese have found a serious "Achilles Heel" of the U.S., and are preparing to strike a deadly, paralyzing blow at this glaring weakness of ours they have found. This is all they tell me, to pass on to you....to further prove their real-ness, and their power. Many lives could be saved, George, if the U.S. Government would heed me and my message re the saucer-intelligence. Or the "intelligence behind Nature", or whatever. They have also told me to tell you....whatever they say is never forgotten, is etched on time and place like acid on wood...and they remind you and the U.S. Govt. that for every day that their representative, P K Man (me) has to work at ordinary living, instead of for them...as per their instructions, to help them, in their way....they will eliminate a top U.S. official, or important person. I refer you to a letter quite a while back, George. By now, they stand to collect a lot of important people. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 140 of 246 July 14, 1965 Mr. H. Mat Adams Alternate Chairman Delaware River Basin Commission 25 Scotch Road Suburban Square Trenton, New Jersey Reply to: 601 George Street, New Brunswick, New Jersey. Dear Mr. Adams: With reference to my letter to you of several weeks ago, in regard to alleviating the drought in your area....I appreciate the courtesy of your letter of July 12, 1965, in answer. Especially in view of the fact that my "mysterious suggestion" was not conducive to any serious consideration. However, Mr. Adams, I assure you that the circumstances are unusual, to say the least. Now I am going to tell you something that you will not believe...but it was I who caused the hurricanes of 1964 to hit the area of Cape Kennedy, and Michoud Missile Complex in Louisiana. It was I who caused the floods on the West Coast at Christmas that the newspapers said could never happen again in 1,000 years. And I caused the Midwest tornados and floods, recently. I do not expect you to believe this, of course, even though it is quite true. But I would suggest that you, if you are interested, contact Central Intelligence Agency in Washington, D. C., and tell them of the proposition I made you...which costs you absolutely nothing except maintenance of myself and wife and child for a short while. Of course, when the rains and floods come, and you have water enough for years, with the drought completely broken...then my fee still stands. The CIA know of my work. They should tell you, in effect: This man has done some strange things that we can't explain. He could be just an eccentric, a "nut" - however, there are things that he has done which would not fit into the "nut" category, and we would recommend that you give his abilities a try, at least...since the cost is negligible. Should he do what he claims to be able to do, cause rains and storms and floods that will end the drought, it would certainly be worth the fee. I must tell you in all sincerity, Mr. Adams....the drought will get worse, and worse, and worse, and worse. I do not care what you try in order to alleviate it...seeding, etc., it will not work. There is only one source which can bring your area rain in constant and great amounts necessary to end the drought on the East Coast, which has been in effect for some years. That one source is myself. Should you decide to try me, later on, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me, either at the current address...or c/o Lornie Owens, Shannon, 505 S. Osage, Inglewood, California. If you want the drought ended in the Delaware River Basin, Mr. Adams, you will most certainly be able to find the small amount of funds necessary to keep me and my wife and child while I break your drought for you. And I will even make you a more sporting proposition than that. If I do not completely break and end your drought within three months time (that has lasted for 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 141 of 246 2 years) then I will repay you any monies which you have spent in maintaining myself and wife and child for that brief period of time. What could be fairer? Perhaps you should know the entire story, Mr. Adams. As fantastic as it is, you should know it. The tremendous intelligences of the "flying saucers" are in communication with me - the only human being on earth that they can actually converse with, in their own way. For the past months they have been trying to prove this fact to the U.S. Govt., which quite naturally refused to believe it. It was only just recently that they identified themselves...before that I did not know what it was that was causing storms when I wanted them, where I wanted them...and other things to happen as well. They are now in the process of letting the ..our ... world know that they are real, they are here, and they have great power which we do not have. They do, in fact, want to frighten us with their powers. Their purpose is to stop the warfare now going on; block any possibility of further war; and get people and minds straightened out in the world. In effect, give the world a 10 to 20 year "breather" of peace and true brotherly-love - without war, without hate, without all of the conditions which are now wrecking the world as we know it. The saucers control our weather, when they wish. They can start tornados and hurricanes, and somehow they can guide them. The saucers at this time are creating a world-wide condition of drought. They will dry up the entire earth and make water scarce. This will cause sickness, an imbalance in Nature which will cause trouble with insects, reptiles, etc. Since New York is perhaps the most widely-known part of the U.S., it will be made a drought-example, as well as the entire area surrounding it. Unless, that is, the U.S. Government and the people of the U.S. recognize the saucer intelligences, and take steps to ally our government with the saucer intelligences. It is very comical but somewhat sad that at the present time we are desperately trying to woo Hanoi and Russia and DeGaulle, for peace and political discussions...when we should, and had better, turn our efforts toward making friends with the saucer intelligences. You can check this. I wrote to the Philadelphia Inquirer and the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin newspapers, several weeks ago, informing them that I was here, asking for a write-up and announcing that I would make a big rainstorm for Phila. All right. I brought the storm last Saturday and Sunday. It was very good. And I intend to bring more "freak" weather into this pinpointed Philadelphia area. I talked to two different reports at the Bulletins here, telling them that I would make the big rainstorm. New York City, and the entire New York-New Jersey area, etc., could have rainstorm after rainstorm...constant rain - with The Rainmaker working. Very truly yours, PK Mar-- THE RAINMAKER, c/o Owens Congress Hotel, 12th & Walnut 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 142 of 246 July 13, 1965 Mr. George Clerk, CIA Dear George: I will have to admit that any Tom, Dick or Harry could write to Cape Kennedy and say, "I am going to cause lightning to strike your rockets, and make hurricanes hit your area." Then lightning does strike one of the Cape's biggest rockets, which sits on a lightning-proof pad. But - this is just a co-incidence. Could happen to anyone, or any Cape. Soon several hurricanes do hit the area of the Cape; but this, also, could be a co-incidence. Anyone could predict, "There will be a major earthquake on the West Coast within a few days -" and then when the quake actually hits Oregon and Washington, the very next day - it could be just a co-incidence. Too, anyone could write the newspapers and government agencies that he would actually cause rainstorms and blizzards and floods in vast and unprecedented amounts, as a 1964 Christmas gift for the U.S., to help alleviate the drought prevalent in the U.S. Following this prediction came the "freak" West Coast floods of Christmas, 1964, which, according to the newspapers, could not occur again in 1,000 years. This, of course, was all just a big coincidence. Then followed the barrage of some 80 tornados and near-tornadoes, plus floods, in the Midwest...then the Northwest. But what the heck, probably just a coincidence. And anyone could predict to the Government that he could make all top government officials sick and ill, and put them all in the hospital. And then, shortly thereafter, they all do collapse into the hospital, with "Executive Flu." More coincidence. However, George, I have a serious question to ask you, and Mr. Dunn, who loves for me to be "specific" in my predictions. -- When I predict specifically that the electromagnetic condition of the North and/or South Pole will be affected - and when I further predict specifically that the absolute fact of this occurrence will be reported in the newspapers - and when I further state that these two things will occur for the specific purpose of proving that I am the representative of Nature, of the Vast Intelligence behind Nature (which is trying to help the U.S. Govt. but cannot penetrate the Govt. thick-headedness.) - and then, George, a flying saucer makes my predictions come true...makes it happen, just that way, and I send you the clipping and my letter for proof and verification - if anyone infers that this multi-impossibility could be just a coincidence then I am going to sit down on the floor, George, take a deep deep breath, and scream until I'm purple in the face. One last point before closing. I spent our last money today to send a wire to LBJ in Texas. After today we'll have no food, no place to stay, nothing. Nature...or the saucers...or whatever it is...isn't going to be happy about this, George. They were very unhappy when I came to Washington and saw you and Dunn, and was turned down several times. Things have gotten very rough since then, if you'll count up the catastrophes. Ironically, I, a Man, and his link with Nature (saucers) is the one hope for the U.S. Government. And as my situation goes, so will go the situation of the U. S. Government and the U.S. As Nature says that, as a matter of fact, everything I do, with my family, is followed by Nature (saucers) and anyone or anything blocking us, attacking us, giving us a hard time, will be dealt with by Nature (saucers). *For the U.S. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 143 of 246 07/09/2025 16:14 Dear Doris + Harry, It was very good to hear from you.

Love later RL === Page 144 of 246 COPY PRESIDENT JOHNSON July 9, 1965 Dear Mr. President: This letter should be the most interesting letter to yourself, as far as you are concerned, in your entire lifetime. Why? Because it proves conclusively that "P K Man" and all of the unusual things claimed by P K Man, are genuine and real. Simply check with the CIA. I sent "George Clark" of CIA a letter on March 9, 1965: "Nature has told me to tell you that to prove it is using me as its representative, it will do something without my using PK, or knowing any of its workings. Nature will, in the near future, change the North and South Poles. As the message came to me, I believe it will use extreme heat to affect those two places...and change the magnetic condition of the Poles. Nature added that you won't have to check with any Bureau on it...that the result will be strong enough to make the newspapers, where you can read about it." There you are, President Johnson. This morning, you can read in your newspaper, the following: "Flying Saucer Is Reported - Sighted At 2 S. Pole Bases" "...It also caused interference in the electro-magnetic apparatus of an Argentine base which is facing ours on a nearby small island. The interference was confirmed by the Navy communique issued in Buenos Aires.........." Well...Nature has proved that it is using me as its representative, just as it said it would...by affecting the South Pole's magnetic condition. Has anyone else lately, in the CIA or the State Department, been able to make such a prediction? I tell you that I am the most valuable human being right now in the entire world, simply because Nature and I can communicate! And the U.S. Government has access to all of this vast power of Nature, which is linked to me...and refuses to use it! Rejects it! Incredible. Respectfully, but very sadly Because I know what is ahead...... P. K. Man c/o Owens Congress Hotel, Room 600 12th and Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 145 of 246 July 9, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA. Dear George: Well, what do you know...after successfully predicting dozens of major happenings (missing only a few times, on space shots) it seems I have missed again! In my letter to you of March 14, 1965, I predicted President Johnson would be gravely ill by June. Tch; tch! Now, how could I have missed that one? And I have been so very very accurate in the past. Also, in the same letter I predicted Pres. Johnson's family member, or close friend, would pass away or be lost, by August...and that he would cry and grieve. Well, it isn't August yet, is it. Notice lately how government officials are falling like bowling pins? Reedy out with "sore feet." General Maxwell Taylor out, with sore something. Dirkson out of action, in the hospital, with sore stomach. A Congressman got smashed with a truck, not long ago - and so on. The "PK pattern" is on now and working, after a time-lag, and you can tell. And the U.S. drought is getting worse now, isn't it....yet no one will take a wild chance, and let P K Man go to work with PK and Nature, to end the drought. Oh yes, I could go ahead and do it on my own....but I cannot, George, because Nature calls the shots, gives me instructions, brings about the results....and Nature insists that the U.S. Government do it Nature's way. Nature is, after all, most concerned because the U.S. Government has put itself above and beyond Nature....so that now Nature is going to prove, bit by painful bit, that such is not so...that Nature is much mightier than all of the money and hydrogen bombs and power of the U.S., or any other country. VERY GREAT Now, here is another thing of interest to CIA...see my letter to you of March 9, 1965, 4th paragraph: "Nature has told me to tell you that to prove it is using me as its representative, it will do something without my using PK, or knowing any of its workings. Nature will, in the near future, change the North and South Poles. As the message came to me, I believe it will use extreme heat to affect those two places....and change the magnetic condition of the Poles. Nature added that you won't have to check with any Bureau on it...that the result will be strong enough to make the newspapers, where you can read about it. Note: This is the first time anything like this has occurred. I don't know what Nature is talking about, or what it plans. Will be interesting to see." All right, this morning in the paper was the clipping: "Flying Saucer Is Reported" "Sighted At 2 S. Pole Bases" "..........It also caused interference in the electro-magnetic apparatus of an Argentine base which is facing ours on a nearby small island. The interference was confirmed by the Navy communique issued in Buenos Aires....." Well, well, George Clark! Now what do you make of that? My prediction of March 9, seems to have been remarkably accurate for July 9, yes? Incidentally, I saw a picture in Life mag of two of the midwest tornadoes (where about 80 tornadoes and near-tornadoes struck) and these two tornadoes in the Life 1 pic were lighted up by lightning. Well, they didn't look like tornadoes to me. I have the picture, and wish I could talk to you about it further. P K MAN (Owens) === Page 146 of 246 July 10, 1965 President Johnson Dear Mr. President: Enclosed is an exact copy of a letter written by myself and sent to Mr. "George Clark" of your CIA, at Washington 25, D. C. It was sent on March 9, 1965. Notice the paragraph marked in red. Now, four months later, comes the proof, referred to in the marked paragraph. See the newspaper clipping attached to this copy of the letter, taken from yesterday's newspaper. Put the two items together, and you have concrete, absolute proof...that all of my past correspondence to you, and the CIA, and NASA, and the State Department...is valid and true, no matter if it sounded fantastic. And, of course, it did sound fantastic. Only myself, and my family, knew that it was true, and now you also, can know it. Mr. Dunn, of the CIA, was interested in knowing the "causal factor" of my "PK" phenomena. At the time I spoke with him, all I could tell him was that the causal factor was the intelligence behind Nature, with which I had managed to arrange a communication, or method of communicating. However, now we know differently. The causal factor, for Mr. Dunn's information, and your own, as well, seems to be these "flying saucers" - whatever they are. But, whatever they are, they can: cause earthquakes to occur; cause fires to start; cause people to become ill, singly or en masse; cause floods and tornados and hurricanes; cause planes to explode in mid-air, or on the ground, and so on. These are some of their destructive abilities. Their main purpose is to stop the warfare on earth; the killing, the hate, the black negativism now so current, world-wide. When these saucers telepathically contacted me, and had me relay this information on March 9 to George Clark, of your CIA...then actually gave the needed proof on July 7, over the South Pole...by changing the electro-magnetic condition of the area, and then getting the action put into the newspapers...just as described in my letter of March 9...they not only gave the U.S. Government the proof that it needs, but the actual letter of March 9 must be read more closely...the rest of the material in it...for these saucers, you must remember, are using my mind, my eyes, my voice...for communication...and they will use my typing, also. I am sure that there is other information in that letter which the saucers want the U.S. to know about, and believe. Now, at the time I typed that information, and sent it to CL, I was perplexed. Because always before I was told that a storm would happen, or an earthquake, or that people would get sick and go to the hospital. But to be told that "Nature" would change the electro-magnetic condition at the N. and/or S. Pole, and then get it put into the newspapers, as proof that I was representing "Nature" - seemed ridiculous to me, and I hated to send that paragraph to Mr. Clark, because for one thing it seemed impossible that anything could change the magnetic condition at the Poles, and then for it to be publicized also seemed impossible. But of course, I didn't reckon on a "flying saucer" to make it possible. The fact that it was brought about...was done in this manner...by this tremendous intelligence which has been running hurricanes across Florida, etc. etc...is an indication of its tremendous knowledge. Any other === Page 147 of 246 3/9/65 p 2 phenomena, such as storms, planes falling, etc., that I have predicted to the CIA and NASA...could be pointed to as accidental, or a coincidence, or that it is just good guessing, or that perhaps I am precognitive, but that is all. Now you, the President, and the U.S. Government, stand notified that this is not so. It is not all indeed. I have all of the power of these "flying saucers" and their intelligent beings, in back of me. A study, or analysis of my previous voluminous correspondence, will readily show you how all this has come about, and how it has been brought about. My own children have seen me sketch on a paper the route I have wanted Hurricane Cleo in '64 to take...and a route contradictory to that given by the Weather Bureau...and the hurricane changed direction, not once but several times, to follow my routing - not only my routing, but to pause for a long interval in two places and just sit there and swirl around. Now you, and I, can understand more about this...how it was done. Somehow these saucers either create these hurricanes, or are the hurricanes. The intelligences running these saucers do not, of course, speak English, and must rely on methods of contacting some person on earth telepathically in order to converse with the peoples on earth. This they have been trying to do by landing, then speaking to one or two people in that isolated spot...but of course the humans they have approached have been too frightened or apprehensive to cooperate. My make-up is so peculiar, and perhaps resembles their own so much, in the mind...that they have somehow managed to break through and reach my mind. It is a two-way communication, in that I can signal them and talk to them also...not in words, but in mental pictures of what is wanted, or needed. Visual imagery. President Johnson, let me speak frankly. Your life is in great danger. Not from me, that would be ridiculous. I understand you, and like you. Do understand that this is no threat from myself against you. I know that you could have the Secret Service pick me up today and throw me into prison for writing the above, just on suspicion. But I am trusting in your good judgment not to have this done, for this is no personal threat of mine. I am interested right now only in providing a home and background for my family. But, what I mean in the above, when I say that your life is in great danger, is that these "saucer" intelligences will not hesitate to eliminate you, in their own way, if you persist in not listening to them, or in paying attention to them. They are trying desperately to avert a nuclear war on this earth...and temporarily you are standing in their way...because you will not recognize me as their representative, and be guided by them, through me. Not to mention the power they wish to place at our disposal, once we listen to them, and begin cooperating. Again I reiterate...I am warning you only as a friend warns a friend. I am not threatening you. Believe me, you could book me into the White House tomorrow to do my knife-throwing act, and you could stand in Louella's place, and I would throw my knives around you without touching you. That is how safe you are, and would be, with me. What I am talking about are these "saucers". 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 148 of 246 COPY Tuesday March 9, 1965 Dear George: Last night I got a real shock. Someone called home before I got home from the office, and my boy, Harvey, took the call. It was someone from St. Paul, Minn., interested "in my offer". My brilliant son did not get the name or identification...the party said they would call back...but they never did. So...I almost had an offer from somebody interested in PK, before I strike out this week at Belmon. Anyway, back to the same theme, George. I guarantee (and look at the astounding success I have had with practically all my projects) to reverse the current trend of the U.S. getting the shaft every day, in every way...and can change the climate in V to winning for us, and bringing about what the U.S. wants. This can be done with PK as easily as swinging about storms...knocking down planes...putting officials in the hospital, etc. I regret Mr. McConal's sister passing away...and PK had nothing to do with that, I am sure. I imagine if Mr. C. thought it had...he would send me to V and have me dropped in a parachute over VC headquarters. There are two interesting things now to tell you: (1) Nature has told me to tell you that to prove it is using me as its representative, it will do something without my using PK, or knowing any of its workings. Nature will, in the near future, change the North and South Poles. As the message came to me, I believe it will use extreme heat to affect these two places...and change the magnetic condition of the Poles. Nature added that you won't have to check with any bureau on it...that the result will be strong enough to make the newspapers, where you can read about it. Note: this is the first time anything like this has occurred. I don't know what Nature is talking about, or what it plans. Will be interesting to see. (2) Exercise Silver Lance was useless, for test purposes. An invalid experiment. My results from the exercise are not worth the paper they are printed on. Why? Because Silver Lance was conducted in a growing, native PK-field, with a wide variety of mechanisms at work in the field that would undoubtedly affect the Exercise to a large extent. The field is Electro; the California coast. If you doubt this statement, just look at Electro, in Florida, and what has happened there in my first PK field. Since July ('64) the entire area has been like an elephant with the nervous shakes staggering around drunk in a china shop. There have been hurricanes criss-crossing the place; planes have been falling down; President Johnson narrowly escaped bad injury on two occasions; the space program turned down; and over a dozen rockets and missiles either blew up, fell down, or shot up and went haywire. So don't tell me the PK doesn't work on an area. So, Silver Lance, to be a true experiment in the logical sense of the word, would have to be held somewhere else, without PK affecting it, to get a valid idea of its results, test-wise. Check?

Pole Bases # 'Flying Saucer' Is Reported SANTIAGO, Chile, July 8 ('). -- From the Antarctic Thursday came official reports of a mysterious lens-shaped flying object, maneuvering and moving at great speed, was sighted last Saturday. A Chilean base commander in the Antarctic reported the object was "yellowish red, changing to green, yellow and orange." In Buenos Aires, the Navy issued a communique saying personnel at Argentina's Antarctic base saw the flying object and photographed it. Mario Jahn Barrera, commander of the Chilean base, told the Defense Ministry by radio that it would be too much to say that "all of us saw a flying saucer, one of these science-fiction things." "However," he continued, "it was something real, an object that moved at amazing speed, maneuvered quickly and gave off a blue-green sheen. It also caused interference in the electromagnetic apparatus of an Argentine base which is facing ours on a nearby small island." The interference was confirmed by the Navy communique issued in Buenos Aires. "The object was yellowish red," Jahn said, "changing to green, yellow and orange. It would zigzag quickly. Then it was stopped and we promptly reached for field glasses, telescopes, anything at hand to sight it. We watched as it remained quietly there for about 20 minutes." Jahn said a corporal took color pictures but there are no facilities for developing the film. The men must wait for eight months to be relieved to have the film developed on the mainland. === Page 150 of 246 FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 9, 1965 a d # SUN Since your contact on the 1st, I have been waiting for the highly held to say our own thoughts. (A) They want me to have a talk with Mr. Green. I will tell him things that should be told. He should know that as he would not like to be in a position where he is no good for the world is good for him. He should know right now. There is no...chance. I do not hear voices; no new hallucinations; "delusions of grandeur" or "ideas of reference" troubles. I will stand up to predictions and "hits" against those of our own world. Of course I do not expect any praise or credit for the fact, because during the long run, for that, don't have delivered this message, and they said... and it's done. Respectfully, J B Fox, c/o Foster Entrance Hall, No. 1 10th and Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 151 of 246 Page Two 7/12/65 since they contact me through telepathic pictures, they wouldn't want me to be rigidly held in any one place...but free to come and go, as necessary. (g) They want me to have quick communication with President Johnson, so that they can tell him things that the U.S. might not know at any given time, which could help us, or he could ask them to perform certain things...which would benefit in bringing about good for the world in general. And they state they are excellent judges of what that might be. There it is...George. I do not hear voices; am not hallucinating. Am not having "delusions of grandeur" or "change-of-life" troubles. I will stack up my predictions and 'hits' against those of any ESP worker. Of course I do not expect any action or answer for the U.S. Government...have been trying too long now, for that. But I have delivered this message, which is what They want. And it's done. Respectfully, P K Man, c/o Owens Congress Hotel, Rm. 600 12th and Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania === Page 152 of 246 July 12, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: "Nature" or the "saucers" or whatever the intelligence is...wants me to tell the U.S. Government what it wishes from the U.S. Government. So, below, is what it wishes. Incidentally, I was against writing this, for myself, in my own mind...yet this vast, powerful intelligence insisted that I send this to you, so will do it. (a) Wants the U.S. Govt. to provide me with $100,000, tax-free, so that I can fix my wife and child up with a home in Texas, plus all necessities; get tools which I will need; and take myself to Europe. The money is to last 1 year, at which time another $100,000 is to be provided, for the rest of my life (which might not be long, if the Russ get to me.) (b) They want me to be given a permit to carry a gun for protection, and want me to have a guard at all times. Say, a Special Forces judo and gun expert, to accompany me wherever I go. (c) They want the U.S. Government to furnish me with a mountain hideaway in Europe, preferably an isolated castle...yes, they stress this heavily...a castle in an isolated spot. Even if I would have to live in discomfort in the room of the darn thing...they want me to be placed in a castle, in an isolated location, in Europe. That is what comes through, loud and clear. I take it they will then attempt to approach me with their machines, and in person, as soon as they are certain that just myself and my bodyguard are in the area. (d) They want the complete story of "P K Man" sent all around the world, for TV and newspaper coverage. Not to advertise P K Man, who can do nothing of himself, but to advertise the fact that the saucers are here, are for real, are at work doing certain things...what some of those things are...and what the aims of the saucers are. And that they, the saucers, are communicating with me, P K Man, and are back of the United States Govt. in bringing peace to the world. (e) Now, don't laugh at this George...I am only repeating what I am told to tell you, just like the March 9 letter. They want a 2-hour TV appearance of P K Man with Pres. Johnson, to lay the entire matter out for the world to know about. Why? Because, they want to scare the Russians and Chinese into line. And, they state, they will back it all up with action, as needed. Just like they backed up the March 9 letter...and other things, earlier. Their suggestion is to open the TV 2-hour show with something that will get the interest of the world immediately...and hold it. Not the usual yakkity political openings...but President Johnson standing in front of a knife-board, and me knives hitting all around him, while he just stands, with a look of boredom on his face. This is to show the world his bravery, fearlessness, and spirit of daring. It would tremendously impress much of the people's of the world, and it is highly doubtful if any other President would attempt to equal his feat. Also, and just as important, it would serve to introduce P K Man...and rivet the attention of the peoples of the world onto the TV screen, as nothing else would. Then for the remainder of the 2 hours, President Johnson would go over the storm-making, hurricanes, etc etc., with P K Man...and it would be brought out that the saucers are on our side, and so forth. This also would make quite an impression on the peoples of the world.

The owner of the Beatty circus sent his chauffeur down to Washington for us - in an air-conditioned $10,000 Cadillac, just as promised. There wasn't room for most of our things, including your stuff - and we left a note for Jean to send it collect by Railway Express. We are advertised as the world's greatest knife-throwing act. Yesterday they took pictures of the acts, all together in a group. May send you one later. No word yet if our act will go on the road with the circus or not. They are full up - wanted to "beef up" their show for Philadelphia. So - ? Mr. Fuller, expecting our whole family as he saw it in Hyattsville, had a beautiful motel room ready for us - at 17.00 a day. Ha ha! TV & all. We've been here a week. To tell you all the action that has occurred, would entail writing a full length book. Leah, we need a permanent address so agents can contact us. I'm going to give you as my permanent address, & you forward my mail to me. Okay? For instance, the father of our great flying trapeze act - all his sons & daughters (he's a clown) - wants to get us booked with Mexico's biggest circus in Mexico City for a month there. But he'll need a permanent address === Page 154 of 246 Sunday 3/27/66 Dear Rick -- Am glad the pool cue pleases you. Make it your friend for a life-time. Take care of it, honey. It's an ace. Don't loan it to any person, ever. If you do, you'll be sorry. How did you like the way PK took care of Gemini 8 & Agena? NASA is still trying to figure out what hit them. Now the Govt. has angered the Si's -- which have appeared recently to prove their reality -- by calling the Si's "marshgas." So the Si's are going to teach the Air Force a lesson -- they are "hitting" the U.S. A.F. here on out, with all PK phenomena. If the Govt. continues to ignore me -- the Si's are going to PK all U.S. vehicles -- autos, trucks, busses, etc. It will not be safe for anyone to be in a vehicle. Don't worry about your package (Beau is in my lap now, licking my arm) -- the thought is there, honey. People can't prove love with presents, anyway. Bean is big now. Talks a little. Martha is fine -- but she waited downstairs at the mail box day after day for weeks, expecting your package. She's like a child, you know, and her feelings were hurt when it didn't come. I'm trying every way I know to get the Church of Sata started -- and to get an isolated house, so the UFO's can come to me in their craft -- but nothing has worked out so far.

But that prediction, given me by the Si's, has worked out sort of poorly, because not much has happened to validate it. The two astronauts were killed, of course, about ten days after I wrote that to you. Then also I believe some Senator died...Johnson went to his funeral...was it McNamara? Allessandroni was killed in a plane crash...and Milton Shapp's helicopter caught fire and crashed...but he was luckier than Allessandroni, and only got bashed up a little. President Johnson's helicopter caught fire at the White House, but luckily he wasn't in it; his baggage was. Bill Moyers fell down a flight of steps at the White House, hit his head, and went to the hospital with concussion. Senator Dirksen fell down, hit his head and was knocked out, smashing his glasses, and fracturing his hip. Had surgery in Bethesda Hospital. Senator Mike Mansfield went into Bethesda Hospital about a week ago and is still there. Reason not given. Congressman Hardy (Virginia) just underwent surgery at Bethesda Hospital Congressman MacGregor (Minnesota) just underwent surgery at Bethesda Hospital Congressman Moss (California) is now in Bethesda Hospital. Eisenhower has been in the hospital for weeks. Yesterday Bollinger, a top missile scientist with NASA (he developed the hydrogen-oxygen propellant used in the Saturn rocket engine) was murdered in Ohio. And yesterday Congressman Fraser's daughter (Minn.) was killed by a car. But other than that, my prediction didn't pan out. Of course, there's still a wee bit of time left.

Dear Sir; Yesterday our mailbox was robbed - an envelope ripped open and a ring, sent by our 16-year-old from California to my wife, as a Mother's Day gift, stolen. As well as a supply of stamps the boy enclosed. We live in an apartment house at 1114 Spruce St., and our mail has been opened many times...then we have found it in our box, already opened. We have complained about it to the postman delivering the mail...but of course all he can say is that the situation is being watched. We have heard other people in the building complain that their boxes are being pilfered, also. Someone broke the lock off our mailbox. Isn't there anything the Post Office can do to stop this? Are thugs free to loot mailboxes here and there, at their whim, without the law stepping in? We would certainly appreciate it, if the law did step in.

Remember I wrote you quite a while back...and told you and Lornie never to send anything to us of value, unless it was by Special Delivery? (Costs 30¢) When I got home last night Martha was crying. She got your letter, but some crook had gotten into our mailbox and taken your ring and stamps out of the letter first. You see, that happens all the time here in Philadelphia, and in our building. All the time we find our letters and mail ripped open before we get down to get it. They have even discovered mailmen in this town looting their own mail. So...after Martha went through weeks of going down to meet the mailman to get your package, the package that never came...now she has had this new disappointment with the ring. Tell you what...pick out another ring, identical to the one you sent. Send me the price of it...I'll send you the money, and you send it to her Air Mail, Special Delivery. I'll include the stamp money, too. Okay? Get into action on this, chum. Our pal deserves a better break than what she's getting. Not getting that ring you sent, just broke her heart. You know how she is. We took Beau to the doctors here, for a cold...but now they are jumping up and down with excitement...because they have discovered something about his mind that is quite unusual. They won't tell me what. They did ask me if he had any unusual powers of the mind...if he managed to do things with his mind children usually couldn't do...and I told them about his reading my mind constantly. They are beginning a series of tests on him June 15. Am glad you get pleasure from playing pool with a fine cue. Like a good horse, it will give you good service, if you take care of it. It's heavy...but that's good...like practicing with extra-heavy drum sticks...then when you swing into hot jazz, the lighter sticks seem to fly. And the heavy stick makes your stroke smoother. So Jimmy could talk at 2...so what? Put Jimmy and Beau together, and you'd see the difference! Whew! Beau has the strongest mind of any human being I have ever encountered...bar none.

Fact...an entire U.S. Fleet is parked just overhead, or just nearby. Therefore simple logic points out the possibility of the loss of an entire U.S. Fleet, at any time.

Y. Herald Tribune WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.--The White House experienced a few anxious hours last week when it was feared that President Johnson may have been exposed to spinal meningitis, a highly contagious and often fatal disease. As it turned out, the fears were groundless. **INCIDENT AT SHORE** The incident, nevertheless, was withheld from the press until Tuesday, when White House officials confirmed it in response to a reporter's inquiry. The story began last Wednesday while the President was visiting Atlantic City, N. J., to speak before the Association of School Administrators in Convention Hall. Among the Secret Service agents guarding the President was Michael Kelly, of the Philadelphia office. **FALLS TO PAVEMENT** Suddenly, Kelly fell to the pavement outside the hall. He was rushed to Atlantic City Hospital, where it was suspected he was suffering from spinal meningitis. Almost immediately, the President's personal physician, Vice Adm. George Burkley, who was in Washington, was informed. Recalling the incident Tuesday, White House sources said there was "concern" that the President might conceivably have been infected. **OUTBREAK REPORTED** Only recently a number of cases of meningitis has been reported in U. S. military camps in Texas and California, some resulting in death. Robert Fleming, deputy White House press secretary, said, "While the President was not close to Kelly, there was concern at any possible infection." At the hospital, Kelly was put in an isolation ward. Medical tests were given him. The following day the tests proved negative. Kelly did not have meningitis. Picking up the story, Fleming said, "Dr. Burkley was advised as soon as it was determined the agent did not have meningitis. "And because the Secret Service and Dr. Burkley kept so close to all the checks that were made on agent Kelly, it was not felt there was any danger to the President, and no treatment was given him." As a result of his mysterious fall, Kelly was reported by hospital authorities to be suffering from a concussion. His condition was listed as serious. But Dr. Lawrence Strenger said that tests showed no contagious illness. Kelly, who is assigned to the Philadelphia office of the Secret Service, was sent to Atlantic City to reinforce the President's bodyguard. # Peacenik Bares Undershirt to LBJ NEW YORK (UPI).--"Mr President," shouted a man in a tuxedo as President Johnson began to speak. "Mr. President, peace in Vietnam . . . peace in Vietnam." With that, the man stood on a chair and stripped off his tux jacket and stiff white shirt. Emblazoned on his undershirt was the same message he had shouted at the President: "Peace in Vietnam." The outburst briefly interrupted the President's address in the Waldorf Astoria's Grand Ballroom. The man who shouted at Mr. Johnson was identified as James Peck, 51, of New York. Secret Service agents, who had been watching Peck because of two previous arrests for demonstrating, seized him immediately. They carried him, his face bloodied, from the plush ballroom. PECK was charged with disrupting a lawful meeting and resisting arrest. He is an employee of the War Resistors League, which sponsored a peace demonstration outside the hotel while Mr. Johnson spoke. Peck had paid $25 for a ticket to the dinner. Nearly 4000 persons picketed the hotel. Six of them carried the orange, blue and yellow flag of the National Liberation Front, the political arm of the Vietcong. The President entered the hotel from a side street and never saw the demonstrators, nor they him. 2/24/66 === Page 164 of 246 Wed., June 29, 1966 Lornie Rick Please get copies of LA papers for yesterday and today...Tuesday and Wednesday...and send me all clippings pertaining to the California earthquake.

Nothing else ...that's all they said. And I need more on it for my file. Matter of fact...any time you see anything you know relates to my file, please send clippings on it.

"The Ocean County police and fire radio system was knocked out by lightning. At least six homes were reported struck by lightning in nearby Point Pleasant." "A lightning bolt struck the main police antennae on top of the Seaside Park borough hall and blew out the police and fire department radios." (Note: As I pointed out on the July, 1965, Jack McKinney Show here in Phila., my favorite targets to which I assign lightning hits...are police station towers, fire station towers, radio and TV station towers.) "Lighting struck the home of Carl Belsatti of Willow Grove." "Firemen were called to St. Anne's Episcopal Church in Abington where lightning had struck and started a fire in the steeple." "About 900 homes in the Highland Park and Twin Oak sections of Levittown were without electricity for an hour after lightning struck a transformer near Heartwood road." "In Gloucester township a lightning bolt struck near the house of John Kemml who was sitting on the patio with his wife. The bolt's shock temporarily paralyzed Kemmler's right arm, and stunned Mrs. Kemmler." "Another lightning bolt shattered a brick chimney at the home of D. D. Porterelli, Bellmawr." "Lightning started a fire in a wooded area near the Berlin, N.J. State Police Barracks." "Fire swept the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Olmstead, West Goshen Township, after a bolt of lightning struck a television set in the living room. The blaze completely destroyed the interior of the house and the furnishings." So, not only did I bring the lightning bolts onto Phila., as I said I would but the tremendous action also attacked the nearby parts of N.J. adjoining Phila. Remember, George, lightning is my trademark. What was my prediction again? "Should be an extraordinary amount of lightning striking all around." Well, I'd like to hear Mr. Dunne rebut the results. They don't call me The Rainmaker for nothing. So, you have further proof added on to a mountain of proof, of the kind of power the Si's back me up with.

Dad. Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Another bullseye. Remember my letter to you of June 17: "Am setting up Philadelphia for some of the roughest, toughest storms Philadelphia has ever had. Am building up the electrical potential for it. Should be an extraordinary amount of lightning striking all around, when it comes." Here are quotations straight out of today's Philadelphia newspapers (13 days after my "prediction"): "Violent electrical storms raked suburban Philadelphia and parts of New Jersey yesterday afternoon and last night. Heavy rain, hail, lightning, and high winds caused floods, power blackouts, fires, and tree damage." "Chester County received a double punch yesterday with a series of storms in the afternoon, and another sequence last night. The first storms bounced around the county beginning about 3 PM, lasting until 5 PM. Torrential rains flooded some areas and hailstones as big as marbles were reported." "Lightning played havoc with the fire signal board at West Whiteland Fire Co. in Exton and firemen were kept busy checking alarms as the board flashed false signals." "At 2:30 PM the storm concentrated in the western portion of the county and lightning touched off a $100,000.00 fire at the Parkesburg Dress Co." "In the afternoon storm a transformer caught fire at the Milprint, Inc., packaging manufacturing company in Downingtown. The fire was confined to the transformer, which apparently had been struck by lightning." "In New Jersey an estimated 14,000 homes and businesses were without electric power for varying periods of time ranging from 30 minutes to five hours." "The Public Service Electric & Gas Co. called the storm "one of the most intensive electrical storms in recent years." "Hardest hit were Cherry Hill, Mt. Laurel, and Evesham townships, where Public Service said some 7,000 customers were without electrical service." "About 4,000 homes and businesses were affected in Burlington, Willingboro, and Beverly." "The five hour blackout was in Bellmawr.

The reason: There is, at present, a glimmer of hope that perhaps the U.S. Government might recognize PK Man in the near future and provide what the Si's want. Therefore I will not make a PK map for Gemini 10 attack, and I will ask the Si's to abstain from attacking, as they did Gemini 8 and 9, ruining both of those missions. The only question mark is the area, which is alive and crawling with PK (other dimensional effects.) The "Electro" area which, like a trained Doberman, is long-trained to attack anything and everything connected with Cape Kennedy. Whether the Si's can turn the area off temporarily, I don't know. Certainly I can't. It has grown (the PK effect there) for two years, and is now extremely powerful. But at least I am sure the Si's will cooperate with me... so that will remove 2/3 of the threat from Gemini 10 flight. PK Man (Owens) * Temporarily, that is. I could permanently.

Now, Monday, by coincidence, is the same day the Gemini 10 shot goes up (just as my appearance on the McKinney show in June was on the same day the Surveyor was due to get to the moon.) For the record, I am going to ask the SI's to allow this Gemini 10 shot to go all the way, without being attacked and racked up by the SI's...as they did with Gemini 8 and 9, which they ruined. This in exchange for this unexpected opportunity to present their case to the people (which will be few, at 3 in the afternoon...but at least, it's something.) That might be all right with the SI's...but what concerns me is the Cape K. area...which has been heavily PK'd (affected with other-dimensional effects). If the area itself attacks the astronauts and vehicles involved, there is little that can be done. But if there is some way the SI's can call off the area (Electro) for this shot, then perhaps it can be done. I don't know. This is a first for this sort of thing. Of course, the U.S. Government is not cooperating with the SI's...that is, acceding to the SI's wishes as pertains to myself, and their work. Even though I make this request to them, they might feel at this point that although they repaid a kindness once with a kindness, Surveyor....that my being able to present their case to a few housewives at 3 in the afternoon for an hour, is not what they had in mind when they wrote (through me) to the President, stating their wishes. The SI's are greatly appreciative of any step that can be made...to bring their forces together with the forces of the U.S. Government. But I am sure that they feel enough is not being done in this regard. Take the weather. In my letter to the President of March 10 I said that the SI's would end the drought on the East Coast, but I warned, and I quote: "But they warn...and mark this well...after the drought has been completely alleviated, and the humans on the East Coast are smug and happy with their supply of water..then if the U.S. Govt. continues to ignore PK Man and refuses to help him, and cooperate with the SI's...then the SI's will strike the U.S. with something far far worse than drought, as punishment, and they do not communicate idle words." Well, they gave lots of rain to the East Coast...still the U.S. Govt. ignored me, their Rep. Now, I fear, they are doing exactly as they said they would do above...with heat. If they appear publicly now - this will mean I am correct PK Man (Owens) 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 169 of 246 July 15, 1966 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: (1) As per my letter to you last week, warning that the Reds in Viet Nam were going to up their airplane war on our planes...as of this Wednesday, two days ago...this did in fact occur...everyone was surprised when six Migs came out of left field. Fortunately our side were good shots, and disposed of the Migs. Then yesterday more brand new Migs came out...and the newspapers today exclaimed excitedly that there had been a sudden escalation in the air war...which is just what I predicted the week before it happened. (2) As per my letter to you of several days ago...warning that the SI's might be striking the U.S. with a heat storm, as punishment for the U.S. Govt. not acknowledging P K Man and cooperating with them...AND THE HAND-WRITTEN NOTATION ON THE BOTTOM OF THAT LETTER SAID: "IF THE SI'S MAKE A PUBLIC APPEARANCE NOW...IT WILL MEAN THAT I AM CORRECT." This morning in the paper is the following article: "AIR FORCE PROBES NEW UFO REPORT - Omaha, Neb., July 14 (UPI) - "The Air Force began Thursday an investigation of reported unidentified flying objects over east-central Nebraska and western Iowa. The sightings were reported Wednesday (July 13) at Burwell, Ord, Norfolk, Omaha, and North Loup-Scotia in Nebraska and at Council Bluffs, Iowa. A spokesman for Offutt Air Force Base confirmed it had received three such reports and an investigation was being conducted by the Air Force systems command at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio." Therefore the SI's have spoken directly to the U.S. Govt. in this weird way of Ovens to SI's to appearance to U.S. Govt. (When I wrote you that letter with the hand-written notation, then I had to signal the SI's that their appearance publicly would be needed as confirmation that my thought in the letter was correct.) George, the U.S. Govt. is out of its blinking mind for not latching onto me instanter...and working and cooperating with me to the fullest extent! P K Man (Ovens) 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 170 of 246 L+R Friday, July 22, 1966 President Johnson Dear Sir: For some time I have been asking the U.S. Government to set me up for one year with everything I need, in order to make a contact with Si craft and intelligences. I have never had an answer, or been given any help by the U.S. Govt. Yet I have been offered exactly what I want and need, by a Communist organization. They windd and dined myself and family...took us out into the country and showed us their set-up...beautiful and wonderful and isolated...and told me I could have everything I want for as long as I want, in order to contact the Si's in the way I want. I informed the CIA, George Clark, of this, and offered to give this information (names and places of this local Phila. organization) but CIA has never sent anyone around to pick up the information. Perhaps some other branch of the Government would be interested in knowing about this group. I turned them down, it goes without saying. If my own Govt. will not aid me to link up with the Si's...I certainly will not go over to the Communists. P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St. Phila., Pa. Dad 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 171 of 246 Friday July 22, 1966 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: After all the cussin' out I gave my various contacts - feel I must write this prediction follow-up (on the Gemini 10 shot.) As a matter of fact - as the predictions I have made in the past come to pass, feel I must point them out, to keep the file clear for any of those who have been keeping the file. But from now on I won't submit any new predictions. NASA just found out what it means now to have the Si's for them instead of against them. The Gemini 10 shot was THE BEST GEMINI shot to date, says the radio and newspapers. Why? Well, to start with - the Si's pulled Storm Celia away so as not to interfere with the lift-off. I had asked them to help make this a dandy space shot - and to call off Electro if they had any way to do so (and evidently they did) - and to show themselves to the Astronauts if possible so there'd be no doubt about all this. (I told you in a letter a couple of weeks ago that they'd appear to the astronauts on a space shoot.) Well, they did show themselves. I wanted the astronauts to stay away from that dam Gemini 8 Agena because it had been heavily FK'd and this flight was clean - and time hadn't made the Gem. 8 Agena any sweeter. It would still try to scuttle any astros it could get its hands on. At any rate, see my letter of July 13, 1966: "For the record, I am going to ask the Si's to allow this Gemini 10 shot to go all the way without being attacked and racked up by the Si's...as they did with Gemini 8 and 9, which they RUINED." I also made this same statement over Radio Station WCAU on a radio show. So what has occurred? The whole world is applauding one of the best space shots ever made. Records broken all over the place... because the Si's gave this space shot their help...even made an appearance to "sign" their intent, as I'd asked them to do. Not to take a thing away from NASA. Their work is terrific. But all the shots, Gems 5, 6, 8, 9...would have gone off like 10 if the Si's had allowed it to happen. I think their demonstration has been amply complete. They have consistently ruined shot after shot after shot. Suddenly they give NASA a green light on a shot..and it's near-perfect. You-all are right bright. I don't have to say more. P K Man (Owens) Love - Dad === Page 172 of 246 February 7, 1966 File THE EDITOR Dear Sir: ********** A lot of people I know feel real sorry for Hubert Humphrey, because of the way Hubert has to "yes" the President and do as he's told (like Him, or get his ears pulled.) But that's the way it is, when you're only in second place...you have to try harder. ********** McNamara refused to appear in public, on the matter of Viet Nam. Rumor has it that the real reason for this was because President Johnson called McNamara aside and said, Now, you-all see here, Mac...if those Senators try to get you to appear in public on the Viet Nam issue...jest remember whut ah used to teach mah little pupils in Texas, when ah'd ketch them carvin' their names on our schoolhouse seats. Kids, ah'd tell 'em, always remember what Lyndon tells you...'Fools names and fools faces, always appear in public places.' ********** People wondered why President Johnson took off so unexpectedly for a trip to Hawaii. Well, he just wanted to get away for a few days to talk to some Generals - and the only State left in the Union without blizzards, freezing cold, transit strikes, power blackouts, race riots, etc., happened to be Hawaii. If, that is, Hawaii's volcano doesn't erupt. ********** H. T. Owens 1114 Spruce St. #33 Philadelphia, Pa. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 173 of 246 6-17-66 P2 The noise. A strange, weird, deep humming drone, seems about a foot or two away from us. Comes at odd times, lasts about 2-5 minutes, then goes away. Sometimes we do not hear it for weeks; then we'll hear it two or three times in a week. Never heard a noise like it. Things vanish. I put a pound of oleo in the ice-box one night. Got up in the morning and it was gone. My wife and I were baffled. My cigars have disappeared, without anyone touching them. I had a five and ten dollar bill disappear overnight (my wife didn't touch them.) And other odd things have vanished as well. My wife woke me one night and we both saw small UFO's in the room. Then, on several occasions, she saw a small light the size of a marble moving slowly around my head in the dark, after we'd gone to bed. My clothes are all falling apart. Shorts, shirts, pants...all are coming apart, holes forming. It has gotten funny. Practically every shirt, pants, and shorts I have is full of holes, suddenly. And these have nothing to do with moths. They aren't that type of hole, or tear. My clothes now rip and tear like soft paper. The baby keeps pointing at some "man" he sees, excitedly...but we don't see anybody...and the baby doesn't joke. "Man, man!" he cries, pointing. And of course there isn't any man there. I woke one morning about 3:30 and clouds of smoke or fog were filling the room...I could see them boiling up against faint light on the wall. I thought the place was on fire and called my wife, and we got up and frantically checked out in the hall, etc. But there wasn't any fire... and the "smoke" had vanished when we got back. Three different times the baby was waked up screaming in the middle of the night...and not more than 10 minutes afterward, each time...there is a tremendous explosion outside our windows. First the baby screams and wakes us up, then comes the explosion. One night I jammed the hall door open securely. When we got up, the jamming-object had been removed, and the door firmly closed and locked. We didn't do it. - Also a heavy art-object had moved from a table to the floor. Martha and I both saw a pigeon on the roof opposite with what looked like a small radar-antennae on its neck...it was a collar, but not flat, the edges cupping outwards. Never saw anything like it. Am expecting a major earthquake in the near future in the U.S., in the shape of a huge "T" - with the top of the T running up and down California, and the bottom of the T running toward Colorado. 2 R.C. QUAKES 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 174 of 246 Copy - Rick, Lorrie Keep this in your file, nuthead! This is priceless! Friday, June 17, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's are frustrated and thus irked, because I am not getting anywhere in an effort to meet them personally...they will not come into downtown Philadelphia, I know...and I cannot get isolated so they can come down without any interference from anyone. Therefore I predict all hell will break loose in the form of catastrophies in the near days and weeks ahead. The Lord only knows what they will think up...they are very ingenious. I wrote you last November about Him and Her, the President's dogs...and in the same letter told you how our dog got ran over and killed. You might be interested in looking at that letter, since the President's dog just got ran over...it's as if the Si's waited until the sense of that letter was accurate, then arranged for Him's accident, so the letter will be read at this time, again. "Him" Whatever happened to OGO, shot up from the Cape a while back? They were supposed to be communicating with it a week ago...but there's not been a word in the papers about it. Am setting up Philadelphia for some of the roughest, toughest storms Phila. has ever had. Am building up the electrical potential here for it. Should be an extraordinary amount of lightning striking all around, when it comes. THREE & FAIR Tornados tore up Topeka, Kansas, not long ago. Si's say...that could happen to the White House and Capitol Hill, just as easily. Si's say they are going to demonstrate with the oceans and seas now...make them reject and attack humans like a body rejects a strange live implant (liver, kidney, etc.) Si's say the seas and oceans have a form of intelligence, taken as a whole unit. They are turning them against humans, as a demonstration of one of their strange powers. Si's say the earliest peoples on earth used these "PK" systems...but as they invented hand tools and weapons, their PK power decreased...until finally the power was usually narrowed down to one person in a tribe, The Elder...until the power was lost entirely. (Up until now. I have it.) Thought you might be interested in all the phenomena that has occurred in our apartment on Spruce: Kids - Si's got your tongues? 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 175 of 246 March 20, 1967 Dear Lorrie I enjoyed your letter, received today. It is very good that you and Rick can double-date together. Sounds like fun. And am glad you are getting that kind of school fun...which you didn't get while with me. It's about time. So you are partial to Latin types, eh? Ugh! Pat can tell you something about Latins...ask her about Frank. Ugh. They are usually overbearing, aggressive, and hard to get along with. Bright in spots...but poison over the long run. Your sweetheart, Julio, might be different. I am speaking of the general Latin trait. I would rather see you going steady with a strong, blond, All-American boy type...but it ain't me is got to kiss them goodnight, it's you. So, shock aw saw goo. Martha sent you a letter last week. I mailed it myself. Beau is a doll. Handsome, tough as nails, gentle as a lamb, loving loving loving. He pours out affection. And reads my mind...last night I looked at him and mentaly told him to go across the room and get me a Kleenex. He was just standing in front of me. Immediately he turned, went across the room, got me a Kleenex, and brought it to me. It is frightening, but he does it constantly. I don't give him a cue or anything. Martha has gotten bigger and heavier. Still a cute doll...a big cute doll. She and Beau get along fine while I am gone through the day. We're a tight little group. There are ten top pool sharks, hustlers, at the Cue and Cushion downtown. I have been eight of them...some by as much as 50 points in a 100 point game. The other two I haven't played. Not much use yet. They both run 50 to 100 balls without stopping. One of them, Scotty, ran 172 the other night before he missed. Whew! So I have a lots of practice ahead of me. Since I can't throw knives...I'll become a very top pool expert. Your chemistry sounds like fun. Glad to hear you are doing fine in it. Just stay far far away from the kids with LSD, whisky, etc etc. You are so fine, so pretty, so nice...keep yourself that way, so we can all be proud of you through the years. Let the other kids ruin their lives; be too smart to follow that kind. Okay? And steer and guide your little smarty-pants brother through the shoals and reefs too, right? Since getting the Searchlight article, which I sent you, have received about twenty letters from interested people. I've offered all of them a partnership in the Soto Church for $5,000, so keep your fingers crossed. Might not be too long before we have our little house in the woods, somewhere, with a cozy fire and pool table...and my Church is there... and my Brain Wave Synchronizer, and I am working with people again. Love and kisses... Dad Sunday P.S. Last night I dreamed I opened a door and went into Pat's apartment. She was in bed and alone. We talked and I got sleepy and lay down on another bed dressed, & fell asleep. Later I woke and wondered where Jim was - & wondered what he'd think if he came and found me there. So I left Pat, asleep, and slipped out. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 176 of 246 2 Lornie Rick 1/11/66 Now, enclosed you find some clippings. Be sure and send them back for my files. As you will see, there was a great mysterious "fireball" that landed.... in Pennsylvania, naturally. But this was the second one to land in Pennsylvania within weeks. There was another great fireball before this one, on .......... Of course, it was the Si's that caused the Great Power Blackout in New York, and I am sure that it was one of their biggest, greatest craft...a "mother ship"...that landed in Pennsylvania (the "fireball") that caused the power failure on such a large scale. Perhaps you don't know it, but just after the great New York power blackout there was a huge power blackout in....Texas. Yep. President Johnson is trying to have both of them investigated, but how can you check on Si's? All you can do is check on the rubbish they leave behind, after the damage is done. Right? Incidentally, the Si's want you to know what they are doing, through me. They were training you, even though you didn't know it, while you were with me. And they were upset when you left me. Their training includes a great many things...including growing you a new brain, of a different sort than what you have. You have to have it, to receive the greater degree of power that you work with, through them. And they can only give you greater power in slow, graduated degrees. The Si's want me to tell you...if anyone at all blocks mail addressed to you...keeps you from getting it...God help them. It sort of worries me. If they were mad enough about your leaving me..they might wipe out the Bentley's and the Shannons, just like that. You know what happened to Mangels, and others who irked the Si's. I am out of it. Your choice is good enough for me, and this is definitely, certainly not any ploy on my part to try to get you to come back...because what you kids want, I want, for your own happiness (even if I might not agree with it.) But I am being objective when I tell you the above ... I know the Si's, communicate with them, and know their tremendous, unbelievable power that literally creates miracles, good and bad. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 177 of 246 Wednesday January 12, 1966 Rick Lornie I wrote you a letter yesterday, and got stamps at the PO last night...but before I could mail the letter this morning, a UFO made news this morning. Now, as you know, for two weeks I have been communicating with the Si's, asking them to appear at Cape Kennedy, as a signal to the US Government. Instead, they waited, and appeared last night not too far from here in New Jersey, over a water reservoir...and they stayed there so they would be seen, positively and definitely..........instead of Cape Kennedy. Why? Appearing over the water reservoir was a message to the Government, for one thing. Also, appearing just as Johnson is going to give his big message today to the US, is another reason. They appeared over the water-reservoir in New Jersey, to show that they are here in this very area, active. They appeared over the reservoir to warn the US Government, once again, to let me end the drought, using their (Si) power to do it. They appeared just before President Johnson's speech...as a warning to the President of their reality, and in verification of what I have been saying for them. There should be an article in the paper today on it. I'll clip it, and send it enclosed, along with yesterday's letter...which oddly enough dealt with UFO's. Love, Dad 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 178 of 246 Tuesday January 11, 1966 Dear Rick Lornie Some day somebody is going to make fun of you, if you mention what P K Man has done. Remember, when we waited by the spot where all the government officials would stand, before Johnson was made President...and I laid down a PK effect to put them all in the hospital...wrote the government that I would...and then they all went to various hospitals? Remember my driving dogs away with PK? Lifting the car off my trapped hand with PK? Remember how you stood there and watched me map out routes for the hurricanes to follow...and they followed; my routes? Remember my using Emmy-Emma technique to cause an earthquake on the California coast, and telling Mangels a day ahead of time, as a witness...and then it hit the next day? Remember the Needles Operation? Remember my throwing fire PK at California, and then those great fires of 1965 hit? And so on and so on. Then we found out that the UFO intelligences were supplying the power, and doing the hitting. I pointed out the targets. If anybody doesn't believe you...show them the attached copy of my March 9 letter to George Clark, CIA, whom you met....telling what the Si's were going to do at the North/South Pole. Then show them one of the numerous newspaper clippings telling what happened five months later...when the Si's carried out this assignment, to PROVE I was working with and for them. Any spot I hit with PK...the grass is never the same again. Anybody I hit with PK, is never the same again, if they survive. And so it goes. And anybody I save with PK, like Brenda Sue Pennington (you were there, Lornie) is never the same again. */reason I am sending this one document to you for proof, instead of any of the hundreds of others I have...is because somebody could say that perhaps it is pure precognition...that I am good at predicting ahead of time what is going to happen, and that's all. They'll say that rules out Si's. But...to say that I could predict a change in the electromagnetic setup of the South Pole, and that it would be reported in the newspapers...is ridiculous for plain precognition. And it happened months later, not days. And a flying saucer was there to prove my Si point...and was seen by scientists. The utterly ingenious way in which this was done...was proof by the Si's, that they tell me what will happen, then make it happen. And they give me power, too. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 179 of 246 May 19, 1967 Mr. James E. Webb N.A.S.A. Dear Mr. Webb: I refer you to my letter of May 24, 1966, in which I carefully explained...that there would be only failures and catastrophes at Cape Kennedy without the friendship of the UFO Intelligences...whom I represent, as an agent. Following that, of course, there has been a horrendous string of lost rockets (Biosatellite, etc etc.) and the astronaut tragedy...and the even worse following catastrophe of both public and Administration wrath toward NASA. A pity that I am not taken seriously. P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St., No. 33 Phila., Pa.

Or should I send your correspondence to Ft. Lee? Anyway, thanks for your card. Will be good to see Saucer News about the middle of June. Will it go on news stands, too? Am asking the SI's to deal NY another power blackout, or show their craft there in a striking way...or do something big and mysterious...before June 22...in NY, to help boost interest in the Convention. Am sure you will get powerful results. Something exciting and unusual. Should affect power and electricity, when it happens. Just one thought, however. I hope there is no misunderstanding on their part. Recently there have been a couple...dozens of tornados instead of the hurricane I asked for, was one. I hope they don't misunderstand this, and demolish New York...instead of putting on a demonstration. Ted Owens (PK Man) === Page 181 of 246 May 24, 1967 Ida Lewis 108 School Street Morton, Pa. 19070 Dear Ida: If you will look at my 1967 Predictions, you will see that it is beginning to come to pass. I mention "the blackest year for America"...and even now, this is beginning to take place, and will. Either Russia and China, or both, have amply stockpiled Egypt and its cronies with tremendous weapons with which to obliterate Israel. True, Israel has the best military force...but it will be like fighting a tiger with a fly-swatter, when Israel takes on Egypt and its cronies...with their new weapons. Nothing whatever will stop Egypt and its cronies from crushing Israel now. They have been told by Russia and/or China that they will be backed up against the U.S., if it steps in. I predict, therefore, the complete wiping out and obliteration of Israel (much as I like and admire Israel, which has nothing to do with my prediction.) Just as I have predicted the wiping out, and obliteration, of all U.S. peoples in Viet Nam. Now the Si's have a special message: They have told me to pass on the word to the U.S. Gov. that they will demonstrate their control over peoples minds by seeing to the complete and utter humiliation of President Johnson and fellow Democrats at the polls in 1968...if the U.S. survives to get to that point, which is in grave doubt at this time. They will defeat the present Administration leaders with every weapon at their command, the 'i's will. F E Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St., No. 33 Phila., Pa. === Page 182 of 246 Monday, May 29, 1967 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency, Wash. D.C. Dear George: Was glancing over my files last night...and find that I gave the U.S. Govt. rather accurate warning of the barrel situation the U.S. now finds itself over on the Egypt-Israel problem. (1) In my letter to you of April 15, 1966: "They (the Si's) are getting set to focus their strange wrath now upon the U.S. Govt., or symbols thereof (Note: Israel is an ally). And the U.S. Govt. can consider itself warned in advance...I pick up a thread of something they might have in mind...foreign countries and peoples rising up against us in masses...actively...to the point of a catastrophe...as has never been done before in the history of the United States, and dangerously so...." That was a pretty good call, George, although it did take a year to develop. But not long ago...Nov. 2, 1966, in my letter to Roland Suank, Organization of Scientific Research, I said: "The Si's warn that dead ahead in the near future...the U.S. Govt. is going to be stricken with a dilemma, a quandary, to beat all quandaries. The U.S. will be faced with a unique problem suddenly thrust upon it...and the decision that is made by Johnson and Co. will decide the fate of the U.S., ultimately." "...this happening will be BIG. Something tremendously important." Now, of course, it is clear that the threat of Israel being attacked and wiped out, with all other ramifications...is what the above two references pertained to. I had thought it might have been a decision Pres. Johnson made to bomb the Hanoi area...but now I realize this sudden, unexpected twist in the Middle East, which could poleax the U.S. if it develops the way it is going...was what the Si's were warning about. H. Owens (P K Man) === Page 183 of 246 May 29, 1967 Mr. Tim Beckley I. N. Service, Searchlight Dear Tim: Just a note to point out that in my letter to you of January 18, 1967, I said: "Today called them (Roland Swank) and warned of a large earthquake to occur within days, or several weeks at the most, on the West Coast. Will be 6 or above on the Richter scale. A very damaging one. The Si's told me about it today...they will make it happen." The earthquake hit Denver, Colorado, on April 10...later than I had thought. There were widespread reports of damage up to points 120 miles away. The earthquake was so severe it knocked the needle off a seismograph at Regis College in Denver. This was the worst earthquake in history to hit Denver...since it was rated at 5.5 on the Richter scale of 10, and previously the worst quake to hit Denver had been 4.3 on Nov. 21, 1965...so nobody could say, well, this was just another quake. Ted Owens (P K Man) The Setas 1114 Spruce St., No. 33 Phila., Pa. === Page 184 of 246 Monday, May 22, 1967 Mr. Jim Moseley Saucer News Dear Jim: I quote the following from the New York Times yesterday, May 21, 1967: "ST. ALBANS BLACKED OUT." "St. Albans section of Queens was blacked out for nearly an hour and a half last night in the area bounded by Linden Boulevard, 118th Road and 198th and 202nd Streets." Since I had written you a few days before that, stating that I would ask the SI's to black out New York... it is most interesting that this seems to be a beginning. Remember that... the approach of thousands of their intelligences and/or craft will stop or block most power operations... such as electric, magnetic, electro-magnetic, etc. All the books say it is because of the power from the SI craft, that cars, etc., are stalled with dead batteries and dead radios. But the SI's have explained it to me differently... the SI's exert a force over the area near and around them, to silence all power sources... so that messages cannot be relayed to other points for help, or to attack them. I.e., if your car is on the road at night, and a SI is near... it will stop your car and stop your radio, holding you helpless to signal for help against them. Attack them. V. L. Dan (Owens) === Page 185 of 246 May 26, 1967 George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: This is confirming phone call of today, as follows; Si's state that Israel...and our accompanying problem with Israel...has only one hope. That of Si help. And they offer to give their help at once, to save Israel and bring about peace there. The U.S. Govt. must secure my family, and send me to Israel just as fast as can be done. I am betting, or willing to bet, my life, on the Si's...against Russian brains and weapons in the hands of Egypt, Syria, etc etc. What's the U.S. got to lose to try it? P E Man (Owens) === Page 186 of 246 Monday, May 29, 1967 President Johnson The i's told me not to write you any more letters...but I want to confirm a prediction I made...so I might as well add some vital information the i's gave me this afternoon to send to CIA. First, the prediction...see my letter to you of April 5, 1967: (I am talking about "kamikaze" techniques which are going to be adopted by the Viet Cong..." ... to overrun those points with mass suicidal attacks of commandos to silence all communications." The part of my prediction that is yet to come to pass...is the suicidal attacks with planes and ships. But let's get back to the confirmation. In tonight's paper, Phila. Bulletin, UPI, May 29, Saigon: "Marine Lt. Gen. Lewis Walt...three star General, recently assigned to Washington, said the Communists had resorted to suicidal attack against the allies." Now, today the i's gave me the following information: Russia has just formulated a new philosophy. They have decided that the U.S. is now weaker than it has been in a long long time, due to confusion in the Administration...conflict between the peoples and the Administration...conflict between the U.S. and foreign countries, etc. They judge the rest of the world including the U.S. as villain. And they have discovered if we haven't the brains and the power to settle the hash of N. Vietnam by now, we never will. Plus the fact they have been preparing for nuclear war for years in a reality way (unlike us) by vast underground shelters...and by sneaking agents into our key cities with A-bombs and bacteriological weapons...Trojan horse technique. The a-bombs and bacteriological weapons all to be set into action on a signal from Russia. After all our key cities are stricken, they'll offer to what is left...to come pick up the poor people and put them to work in Russia as slaves. Mind you, not a missile has been fired. If we do lob missiles onto Russia, they will have struck first...their key people will be scattered out in satellite countries...and most of their people will be in underground shelters. Ours won't be, when their missiles come. And now, with some new weapons they have, which we do not have, plus the above, they are ready...after all these years. It is no longer a Mexican stand-off, because they are prepared and ready to strike. The i's thought our U.S. Govt. ought to know this.

He said, "If we continue at our present suicidal rate, half of all Americans will one day suffer death or serious injury on our highways." Now, he shouldn't say things like that. It might worry and depress our boys in Viet Nam. ********** There was an article in the paper last week about a famous movie star who allegedly stole some dime store merchandise. Good for her! Really, I mean it! Just think what a happy place Hollywood would be if all the famous actresses would stop stealing each other's husbands - and switched to stealing dime store trinkets! But they won't stop stealing husbands...they'd rather fight than switch. ********** To show you how very low the modern-day male of our so-called civilization has fallen, a Mr. Rothschild of Yale, said in the papers last week, "I have become very upset at the female assault on the male world, and want to do something about it..." So, what he did was challenge Miss McVeigh, of Harvard, to a rough and tough game of jacks. They sat down and battled it out. He won. She said, "Because he beat me doesn't prove me any less feminine, it just proves John (Rothchild) more feminine." These gentle words took care of Mr. Rothchild. But my son, 14, who for several years I have been trying to sell on the importance of a college education, said "Gee, Dad, is that what you learn at college? How to play jacks? I already know how to play jacks." Well, I was speechless and at a loss for a suitable answer, naturally. Finally all I could say was, "Son, in the cave man days when men were men they hit the girl on the head with a club, dragged her to his cave. No jacks were played. But now times have changed. They have laws. To keep out of trouble you need to study law...so that is why you need to go to college, because......." ********** H. T.

Hardest hit by the downpour was Willow Grove where the Naval Air Station recorded 1.35 inches of rain from 6:30 to 8 P.M. The Upper Moreland township police reported scores of flooded basements, fires and trees and electrical wires knocked out by the storm. A roof of the Willow Grove Metal Stamping Co. plant on Wyandotte rd. collapsed during the heavy rains. SOME 6000 homes in Warminster township were without power for 40 minutes when lightning struck a 33,000-volt Philadelphia Electric Co. power line at Blair and Monument rds. shortly after 7:30. In the Norristown area, power was knocked out, darkening some 1000 homes. Scattered disruptions were reported throughout Montgomery and Bucks counties. === Page 190 of 246 7.15.66 02 # Tornado Topples S. C. Ferris Wheel CRESENT BEACH, S. C. (UPI). -- A sea-spawned tornado ripped through South Carolina's rich "Grand Strand" resort area and caused an estimated $1 million damage to the posh playground. No serious injuries were reported. The twister knifed out of a squall line of thunderstorms, toppling a huge ferris wheel and severely damaging a restaurant and two motels. Lesser damage was reported at other resort areas north of Myrtle Beach. Communications and power were cut off by the storm. Heavy rains drenched the area and flooded streets and lowland areas. THUNDERSTORMS raked the area from Myrtle Beach northward to Cherry Grove Beach. Police and rescue squads rushed into the stricken area and reported only minor injuries to the throng of summer visitors and residents. Most of the minor injuries were caused by flying glass. Remember the ferris wheel? It got it. === Page 191 of 246 2 15 66 p2 The rainbow-colored light (which humans could not see, but I am lucky in that the Si's let me see it) seemed alive...it moved. My daughter and I left, as soon as the Si's told me it was done and the girl would live (she had been given up by the medical profession, which was the only reason they let me in). As the days went by the Si's let me see the girl in her hospital room...and as the days went by, the tiny small rainbow-light over her head grew in size, until the entire room was filled with beautiful, colored 'things'...and the room pulsated, like a human breathing. That was constructive. The girl is now at home, improving, and alive. The Si's saved her. Electro and Electra, the Calif. coast, are destructive. But the Si's point out that they can only reach humans...prove to humans that they are real...by producing negative conditions, destructive conditions. Just as the only way Moses could convince the Pharaoh that what he was saying was true and real...was by producing negative, destructive conditions. The Si's want you to know they come from another dimension, not outer space. They can produce conditions in our dimension from their dimension, if they wish. Or, they can actually enter our dimension themselves, when they have reason to do so. Before closing, they want you to know they can "melt" the destructive conditions they have set into play in Electro and Electra, and replace with a reverse effect. P K Man === Page 192 of 246 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency 2/15/66 Dear George: The Si's communicated with me this morning...and urged me to pass this following information on to the U.S. Government. Now, I have known this, but I only tell this sort of thing...when they tell me to. Philadelphia recently had a very nice rain. The Si's gave it. XXXXXXXXXX The Si's, for some reason, want the U.S. to know...that they have a Black Box. Say they are irked with the U.S. Government (which they are..the Administration so they slide a card into the Black Box...this is sort of like a printed-circuit in a transistor radio...and what happens is this: The U.S. Government then develops "conditions" which lead to all sorts of unusual and unexpected set-backs, ranging from air-ship-sub collisions, etc., to people catastrophes...like two generals, in different parts of the world, smashing themselves to pieces the same week by parachuting out of planes (last year.) The weather will go against the Government...people will turn against the Government...conditions will go against the Government. This is what the Black Box does, when the card or wafer is inserted in it. If the Si's wish to reverse conditions, they remove that card, and insert another, and then all conditions are "go" (to put it into space language) for the U.S. Government Everything goes right. The weather turns favorable; the people change, and become happy and back the Govt.; ships, planes, and subs stop having accidents; space work, instead of being blocked and hampered by constant set-backs, is speeded forward. The Si's want the U.S. Government to know that they can do this, for it is a different medium of tool than anything we have on earth. They want you to know that they can influence minds, souls and matter on earth in a way humans cannot. They want you to know that they have let me "see" how "PK" works...that is, take the "Electro" area from Daytona Beach to Miami...over it, now (didn't used to be when I just started the PK work) is a growing garden of violently colored 'things'...not plants, but long long things that extend into the air from the ground. The area is covered with these really beautiful, colored plants (?) which humans cannot see...but which are there, nevertheless, and which affect the area. The 'things' are constantly growing. For instance, when I was given permission to go to try to save the life of Brenda Sue Pennington in Washington, D.C., because she was dying...and because the Si's told me to...I "hit" Brenda Sue with certain kinds of constructive "PK" (that is my term for the process of the Si's which I cannot explain, but can use) and a tiny rainbow of color formed over her head (she was in bed, with police standing by, nurses, etc.) I hit her with all the power I had, and used my daughter to supplement my power, by holding hands with my daughter. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 193 of 246 Bend wrist-band to fit your wrist. P.S. Bend this wrist-band to fit your wrist, honey. Feb. 7, 1966 Rick - The Si's instructed me to make you this wrist band. Made one for myself. We're to wear them as much and as often as possible. They have a reason for it. And the ring too. Try to wear this symbol all the time! Must make Lonnie & Martha & Lonnie a necklace. Beau too - something. It's important to the Si's - so let's cooperate. Did you get my Third Proof? Sent it today! "Emmy-Emmy" is name you gave to crude symbols we used to "PK earth-skin movement into disrhythm, causing floods, hurricanes, violent storms, volcano eruptions, etc. Found out our symbols were a code to Si's, who do it themselves with a form of power not known on earth. Love, Dad HAPPY === Page 194 of 246 January 25, 1966 Dear Lornie: I hope that you are getting along fine in school, and that all is well. Everything is quiet here...right now. But you know, with me...all hell can break loose, any time, any place. Our days are all pretty much the same...to work early, home at 6, where Martha has a hot supper waiting and Beau has a big kiss for me. Then TV, with Beau scrambling to get into my lap. He's so funny...if I bring home a beer, he runs like mad and gets a glass or cup before I even can get the beer out of the sack. And when he climbs into my lap every evening, after supper, to watch TV, first he brings a pillow to put his head on, then his pa-pa (blanket) to hold on to. I tell you he's cute. Once in a while, if Beau gets off my lap to do something, then Martha jumps out of her chair, which is alongside mine, and quickly takes Beau's place in my lap. Then of course Beau runs back and climbs up into her lap, which makes a sort of human pyramid...with me on the bottom trying to smoke a cigar. It is a comical sight. Soon am going to try to make some extra money, some way. Been relaxing long enough, just breaking even. Time to get ahead. This morning Martha said, "Say, if Jim Shannon is so young...like 25 or 27, then why isn't he in the draft, or in the Service?" No matter what PK I hit LA and Calif. with...you kids have no worry. You are protected. Was astonished to see an ad on TV where two kids are in a bubble, floating in the air, and the ad said: "How would you like to have your kids in a bubble of protection?" Be sure, you kids, to read my letters to each other...when I write one, it's for the other one to know about, too. So, take turns. Hope you and Rick liked the color pictures that were taken in Washington. The best one was of you and Beau, upstairs. What did you think of my big, fat letter last week with the photostats of the Si's being seen all night near here in New Jersey...and shooting a ray that burnt a big hole in the ice? The mayor of the town, the cops, and thousands of people saw the Si's that night. Write, Spellbound, when you can. love and kisses.......... Parker Owens P.S. Was there a power blackout in L.A.? If so, please send clipping on it. === Page 195 of 246 2/15/66 Dear Rick... was good to hear from you. Am returning copy of my letter for your files. Wrong one, but I thank you for going to the trouble of looking. Never mind looking further, I've got it covered. Tell Pat that that time she and her mother and I encountered a tremendous "feeling" in the front parlor of their home in Durham, N.C. - we were in a UFO "force-field" which was created by the extreme closeness of the UFO intelligences which were actually present at the time, although unseen. Rhine's work had drawn their interest...they were near Duke...and my own interests and mind drew them. They've told me. Now, about your pool cue. I went into Brunswick, a few doors from where I work, to get your cue. The expert there said to wait about three weeks, because they have a new cue coming from Japan which is superior to anything they've got in the U.S. It is made of rosewood, and is beautiful, and a terrific shooter. You know, Rick, the best radios are made in Japan...also some of the best cameras. Now they are coming out with these pool cues. They are the same price, about $20, as U.S. made, but this expert says they are 100% better in feel, balance, and looks. So, your birthday present will be three weeks late. You'll get a professional pool cue which unscrews and fits into a professional case (one just like you saw in "The Hustler" and a book by Willie Mosconi, one of the all time greats in pool. By the way, Sunday there was a tournament by four of the top pool shooters in the U.S. A Frank McGowan, of Brooklyn...beat the great old-timers he was up against. The old-timers were all about 50-60 years old. This McGowan was in his 30's. They had trick-shot contests, where each one took turns trying to do the same trick shot...and they had straight-pool contests to 100 (not 50). Sunday Electro got the huge Agena rocket they were testing...tore it up at the Cape...and now they are behind the 8-ball in their scheduled target-shot in March. They are "investigating what went wrong." A very very familiar phrase, indeed. Also Sunday Major Keyhoe appeared on a nationally televised program, to my utter surprise, and came out with these gems: (a) The U.S. Air Force has fired upon and attacked UFO's. But orders have now been given for our planes to "force them down to the ground". Ha ha. The AF has clocked the UFO's going 18,000 MPH. (b) Newsmen asked Keyhoe if it seemed "the UFO's were angry with our space efforts, and might be trying to block them." ---------- ! (c) Keyhoe said the A.F. and U.S. Government knew positively the UFO's are quite real...he'd seen a secret Govt. report on it...and that the A.F. had been under orders to shut up anybody or anything that had seen or heard a UFO, in order to keep it from the general public. He said some top AF men were angry about it...because they had to lie, and they weren't natural liars. But he said the U.S. Govt. was now contemplating telling the public about it...bringing it out into the open. ---------- ! Keyhoe said the A.F. and CIA had been working on keeping UFO activity secret, === Page 196 of 246 2 amd away from the general public. The CIA! Looks like I have been writing to the wrong people, Rick. Am having lots of fun with this new thing...sending funnies into the papers... and our kitchen wall is papered with different pages of newspapers that I have got funnies in. Sent you a UFO ring today. And a wrist-band also. Don't wear the wrist-band to school, only around home. These articles were made at the Si's direction, by me for you. Has something to do with a plan they have. Sent Lornie a "boyfriend" wring. I made Martha an out-of-this world beautiful bracelet and necklace for her Valentine. First time I have ever made anything...you know...but so far I have turned out all kinds of things like I'd been doing it for years. Without studying it, or anybody telling me anything...I just went to the right stores and bought the right things, then made the things up. Glad you approve of "hooleeo". That's favorable. You're pretty shrewd judge of character. Am puzzled. You say "The confirmed clipping of the UFO over Cape Canaveral are on their way." You didn't mean this letter of mine, attached, did you? I am 46 now. Always remember...I am 10 years older than Pat. Love always Dad === Page 197 of 246 Jan. 14, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: I am appalled by the apathy of the U.S. Government in checking leads, no matter how "far out" they may be. Now, just lately in my correspondence to you I told you that I would try to get the Si's to display a craft at Cape Kennedy for an extended period of time, to prove that I communicate with them and they understand. They chose, instead to do this in New Jersey, over the Wanaque reservoir. Sent you the info on that yesterday. The point is this...they want to make a personal meeting with me...and the Govt. should have rushed me to that exact spot and given me an opportunity to communicate and bring them down, right there. I have the means of doing this. No one else has. Same thing with their appearance in Michigan, and Florida, some time ago. I should have been sent there by the Govt....rushed...and been given an opportunity to meet them, by talking them down to the spot again. I am talking about the craft, now. We have had Si phenomena in our apartment, believe it or not, these past few weeks...but it is necessary to bring down a craft, and meet it. Two great "fireballs" have landed in Pa. since September, on two different occasions. These were the Si's, and they did not land in Pa. by accident. I am in Pa. They wish to meet me. This was brought out long ago in correspondence, when they stipulated conditions on how they wanted to meet me. But of course, US Govt. made no answer. I wrote you in advance of the events, that the Si's would create an earthquake and a disaster area (this in Dec. 28.) They did just that...a mild earthquake in New York and Pa., followed by a billion-dollar financial disaster in NYC. I told you that Pres. Johnson would be involved in the disaster area. Well, he tried not to be...but it was extended until he was forced into the matter. It is a great pity that I can get no cooperation from my Government to meet a Si craft, and make arrangements with them for future events. P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St. #33 Phila., Pa. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 198 of 246 Copy - Rick & Leone Monday, April 4, 1966 George Clark, C.I.A., Washington, D.C. Dear George: Yesterday I was in communication with the Si's...and they told me that they were going to make a demonstration of their powers before the AF meets with Congress with its info on UFO's...in order to dramatize the meeting. They told me they would do something at Cape Kennedy, or at Washington (the White House)...and today the tornados struck Cape Kennedy! I could have again warned the U.S. Govt. last night of this, but have no one to report to, and no way to do it. Oh, yes...then they told me yesterday of their plan to hit the Cape, or the White House...I asked them to show one of their crew in the area, as a sort of signature. But they didn't do that. Not long ago I sent you a letter with regard to General Ky, of Viet Nam. At the time he was being painted as a mixture of Batman and George Washington, by the U.S. Govt. But I told you what he was really like. And if you will check my letter, you will see that I was correct. The Si's yesterday told me something else...they do not want me to try to meet them in Michigan, or anywhere in the U.S. They want the original plan...U.S. Govt. gives me the money, I go to England...they specify England...and want me to rent an isolated castle there, etc. You know what that plan is. Now, to business. You will remember that I warned weeks ago that U.S. catastrophes would increase (unless the Govt. enlisted the help of the Si's) It has not, and the catastrophes have. Let's just briefly scan the catastrophes that have struck the U.S. Govt. in just the past ten days (10): (1) Today's tornados, chopping up Florida for three hours and bullseyeing on Cape Kennedy. (2) The railroad strike - "biting into the Nation's economy" as the newspapers put it. This affected hundreds of thousands of workers and jobs, and cost approximately fifty to one hundred million dollars...and created chaos. (3) Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Monday, and Tuesday - six days, count them, six - arrangements were made at Cape Kennedy for NASA to get a rocket off the ground...any rocket. But they could not. And these birds were highly publicized, adding insult to injury when they failed to get up. A true catastrophe for NASA, prestige-wise. (4) The "lost" H-bomb off the coast of Spain was dropped accidentally not once but many times, and is now possibly gone for good, until it goes off some day, or Russia steals it. A catastrophe. (5) The people of South Viet Nam, our allies, turned against the U.S. Govt. this week - and now American personnel are not safe among the people they are fighting and dying for. This rebellion of our allies against us, at this time, is a terrible catastrophe. (6) The blowing up of the hotel in Saigon which housed our military men was most certainly a catastrophe. (7) Devastating forest fires have struck five states in the South...most certainly a catastrophe. (8) And Saturday a hurricane (typhoon Shirley) bullseyed in on the U.S. Nuclear Submarine base in Australia, hitting it with damaging winds. All this action...in the past ten days alone, George. Catastrophes, ever increasing in number and in scope. The Si's are unhappy because I must work at 2% of my capacity, instead of working with them and for them; and they are unhappy because the U.S. Government has not sent for me to add my material to the report of the AF when it meets Congress, this week - since I am in communication with the Si's, and the AF is not - what can the AF P07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 199 of 246 4-4-66 p2 relate, of any value, to Congress? I can give really valuable information, and should be allowed to be there to do so. And the Si's are furious about it. This will undoubtedly be reflected in worse catastrophes just ahead of us. member - the primary purpose of the Si's is to establish a meeting of "minds" between themselves, and top U.S. leaders - and from that point on, using the U.S. as a friendly cooperative base of operations, they plan to straighten out world problems, bring about peace everywhere, and show us, from their higher intelligence and experience, how to keep the peace in effect after they are gone. The fact that the U. Govt. refused to listen to them at this point, or help bring this about...of course makes them very angry...and brings disastrous catastrophes upon us. Of course, in order to bring about the above, the Si's first have to be met in a physical meeting...face to face...and myself, Mr Man, is the U.S. Govt.'s only key to that meeting. The Si's do not intend for a minute to let the U.S. or any other country capture one of their craft and gain access to their mechanics of propulsion and power...to misuse as we have misused nuclear power, and no doubt will misuse it again in the future. That is why they are almost impossible to contact, let alone meet. Also they do not trust humans, and especially do not trust American military men...or American politicians. For remember, their values and morals are different than ours...they are strict, hard, and they are against war and killing and destruction. Can the same be said for military men and politicians? Of course not. And the same goes for scientists. The Si's do not like them, either. Well, enough. Luckily, the Si's do trust me, and like me. Why, I don't know. But I have submitted more than enough proof by now to you that they do communicate with me, and me with them. So....take it from there. Mr Man Love, Dad P.S. Pardon this clankety-clank FMC typewriter. It is a mess. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 200 of 246 Lornie & Rick Monday May 16, 1966 Mr. Mitarnowski State Police Shade Gap, Pennsylvania Dear Sir: I am the gentleman who called you last Saturday, with regard to using ESP, or in this case...clairvoyance...as a tool to catch the criminal who kidnapped the girl at Shade Gap. However, please hear me out. Here is a complete plan, and I believe an excellent one...with which to catch this man. Spread the word over a wide area there that a famous clairvoyant (something like a witch, they'd better understand) is coming to Shade Gap this next Saturday and Sunday...to use his powers to describe the kidnapper in better detail, and tell the police a great deal more than is known. (I work like Peter Herkos, and you can get this around.) The enclosed sample newspaper story can be used...Wednesday, if possible. Now, the kidnapper, I feel, is very egotistical. He is certainly unbalanced. And he will watch the papers. I am sure that when he reads the newspaper story...and perhaps hears by word of mouth about the strange man coming...he will be sufficiently motivated to try and strike at me, probably Sunday, in the kidnapping area...even though he may be out of it now. My strange, unusual powers may indeed give you some cluesXXX..perhaps important. But also add this plan...and we might get results. I can be the bait to catch this criminal. The woods people and mountain people have much more faith in witchcraft and ESP than sophisticated city people, you'd better believe it. And I am sure this kidnapper would try to eliminate me. You would have to transport me there Friday evening or Saturday morning...and furnish me with a concealed walkie-talkie, plus a .357 Magnum pistol for protection. Withdraw any police from my area, and let me go through the woods from the point of the kidnapping. I am sure that if the man is still anywhere in the area, he will try for me...being of that sick ego, and unbalanced. When he does, I'll contact you, and you come in. As I explained to you on the phone, am not interested in any fee or charge. Just in getting the girl back. And I think I can. Sincerely, H. T. Owens 1114 Spruce St., #33 Phila., Pa. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 201 of 246 5.16.66 pg 2 (This article, or one like it, to be published in the Shade Gap newspaper and other small towns around...Wednesday of this week, or Thursday.) WITCHCRAFT TO FIND A KIDNAPPER? Well, almost. A famous clairvoyant, with powerful ESP ability, is coming to Shade Gap this Saturday and Sunday, from Philadelphia, on his own, to give clues to the police that he "senses" and "pictures". These impressions he will get from the area of the kidnapping spot. His name is Owens, and he has been very successful in the past. Like the famed psychic Peter Herkos, Owens gets mental pictures of the criminal, and other important facts as well. When questioned, Owens gave this statement: "Obviously this kidnapper is crazy, insane. And also a coward...to pick on a small girl. I intend to spend Saturday and Sunday in the kidnapping area where the girl was taken, and I am positive that I will be able to get a picture in my mind of the kidnapper, and be able to tell the police of his habits, his work, and other facts which can lead to his capture. Perhaps even his present location." When asked if this might not be dangerous...to be in that same areaXX ... Owens replied: "No, this crazy man only picks on helpless girls. I will be alone in the area. As a matter of fact, the police have agreed to stay away and let me work those two days in my own way, by myself there. That way I can concentrate better." Well, it might work. In Philadelphia Owens is regarded as a powerful ESP worker, or "witch". If that is what it takes to catch a criminal...why not? ---------- (Note: The above article would be a personal insult, and dare, to the kidnapper. If he is the "sniper" as the papers think, then he would for sure make a try for me. Then you would get him.) === Page 202 of 246 January 27, 1966 Mr. Jackie Gleason Miami, Florida Dear Mr. Gleason: I have one of the best knife-throwing acts in the world, and would consider it a great honor to appear on your show with my wife. We were on the Steve Allen Show a couple of years ago, and I threw knives around Steve Allen. Maybe you saw it. My wife makes a good appearance...she's part Czech and part Cherokee, 27 years old. I'm kind of paunchy an homely, and 45. But we do things with knives nobody else can do. We are saving our money to start our own church, and we need one big appearance like yours, and we have our start. Sincerely, Bogarde Bogarde (Owens) 1114 Spruce St., #33 Philadelphia, Pa. P.S.

Later I wrote you about the Si's sending ghosts from Viet Nam to affect President Johnson...but that is no mystery now. I understand that. Today they gave me another very cryptic message to send you. They say to tell you they are up to something most unusual...so much so they won't even tell me what it is. But they want the U.S. Govt. to know it in advance, before it happens...and after it happens there will be no doubt in the minds of the Govt. that it is the UFO's. That they are real...are here...are connected with me. They've urged me today so strongly to send this seemingly meaningless message, that I must. So I am sending it on. P K Man (Owens) P.S. They know what I am thinking...and it also works in reverse... I believe I know what they are thinking. And what they have in mind, I am sure, is to appear, so that many people can see them, and do something most unusual...something no UFO has done before during a "sighting." === Page 204 of 246 Rick Lornie LORNIE Monday, June 20, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's have been quiet, relatively quiet, for a bit. Soon they will strike through their "time window" as they call it...at the U.S. Govt. some more, to continue their never-ceasing efforts to spank some sense into it. Also they notified me yesterday...that what I have accomplished these past two years with "PK"...has been a training period for me, like a child in kindergarten...and just ahead they have something much more important for me, than what I have been doing...and now they say I have the facility mentally to receive the necessary power from them, to do it. I do not know what they have in mind...but can't possibly conceive of anything bigger than what I've been doing. Guiding hurricanes; causing lightning strikes, etc etc. But by now I know they know what they are talking about, even if I do not. P K Man (Owens) (symbol of a circle with a horizontal line and a lightning bolt) P.S. Today believe I succeeded in "talking" to Si's on my compass. Let you know when I'm sure. === Page 205 of 246 Sat.

In my letter to President Johnson, March 10, 1966, copy to you, I said: "I have some very good news from the UFO intelligences to you. The Si's have decided to end the entire drought on the East Coast. They have told me to communicate this to the U.S. Government, In the days, weeks, or months to come there will be rain rain rain ... not just a little, not just "above average" - but phenomenal rain. The Si's will fill the rivers, streams, etc., on the East and Northeast Coast with rain water ... to overflowing. There will be no doubt whatsoever that this freakish rainfall is unnatural. They also told me to tell you that they want this on record ... so that when it occurs the people will not consider it just an "accident of Nature. "" Okay, George. As of now, June 28, after the East Coast has been greatly improved by rain since I wrote the above in March, I would like to quote from an article in the Phila. Bulletin, by Adolph Katz, on June 26: "One cause cited for the prolonged drought (on the East coast) has been that the high altitude winds - the westerlie which normally bring in rain-laden air from the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean, had shifted out to sea about five years ago. Rain, which normally would have fallen in this area, fell uselessly into the Atlantic ocean. ABNORMAL PATTERN Now the southwesterlies have swung back over the Eastern United Stati (after going 5 years the wrong way .. . my insert here) and are bringing rain once more. However, the wind-pattern is abnormal ... ". (see my 'freakish' predic Finally, the article says : "In a report to President Johnson, Udall said that the northeastern drought has diminished in intensity." Thus, I told you specifically what the Si's would do ... and they did- ic. Shifted the winds into an abnormal pattern in order to help the U.S. with its drought problem. Second hit: In my letter to you of June 17, I said: "Expect a major earthquake in the near future in the U.S .... running up and down Cali That was just eleven days ago. Last night the earthquake arrived,-> just a couple of days off-schedule, by my reckoning ... but in time to make the prediction very accurate, don't you think?

As you know, they had told me to tell the U.S. Govt. that they would ruin the Surveyor shot ... and harass the Gemini 9 shot, as they have been doing. Well, the Surveyor took off ... and lost an aerial ... and the Si's were getting ready to ruin the gadget when suddenly P K Man their Representative, was called up and invited to talk about them, the Si's, over the radio. This had not been anticipated by the Si's. When Kha P K Man went on the program, was given an opportunity to talk more about the Si's and their wishes, and P K Man was not badly treated ... that is, was treated as a guest, not a man on trial, this pleased the Si's very much. Now Jack ... recall last year when I was on your show ... and the Si's made it rain exactly at the time I went on, and closed down the rain as I went off. Then the following week, on "Talk of Philadelphia" show ... they made it rain because I'd been invited again to talk about them. And the rain stood for what they were willing to "pay" the United States in exchange for the U.S. Govt. fixing me up so that I could arrange to meet them. In other words, whenever I appeared on the radio, the Si's rewarded the town with rain ... and this was at the time of deep drought, remember? When there just was no rain at all. So ... the Si's told me this morning ... they decided to allow the Surveyor to go on and land and function, just as they allowed the rain to fall last year, as a reward to the people of the U.S. for allowing Their case to be further presented to the people. They wish that you would read this letter over the air, to the people, Jack. And it might be pointed out, as far as I am concerned, that one-half of my prediction was correct ... that Gemini 9 was blocked Wednesday From taking off ... harassed as usual. I am just sorry that I didn't know about the change of mind on the part of the Si's ... but the radio program came on took sudden. One other point ... the Si's salute NASA and its workers ... because, although the U.S. people are not aware of it ... NASA has far outdone Russia, in that NASA has had to make all these difficult shots, in the face of Si harassment and hostility. In other words, the Si's have cased practically all of NASa's troubles, but the people do not know it. Nor NASA. 07/09/2025 16:14 === Page 210 of 246 6.3.66 pg2 Rück LORNIE THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: IN NASA'S LAST FIFTEEN EFFORTS TO GET BIRDS UP Monday June 6, 1966 AND WORKING TO COMPLETE MISSION, HOW MANY DID?

The two reasons for Gemini 9 were: (1) A docking with the target. (2) Use of the back-pack. Neither of these all-important tests were carried out. Therefore ... Gemini 9 can be added to the long long list of "PK'd" rockets and missiles. P K Man (Owens) P. S.

Remember I was on there for four hours, non-stop, last year? This, of course, gave me no chance to prepare material or anything. Last year I took a week to get ready for them. But to my great amazement ... although a scientist sat at the table with Jack and myself ... there was no attack on me. On the contrary, Jack even testified over the radio that all of the predictions I'd been sending in, had been true (I've been sending him copies, like yourselves.) The "P K Man" (how he addressed me throughout and advertised me late that afternoon) segment lasted until 12:30 ... 22 hours. They spent an hour letting people call up and talk to me over the "phone". Only one man called me a "good-natured phony" ... all the rest of the calls said they believed me, and how they enjoyed hearing the program. And the one man who attacked me ... was bawled out severely by another man who called up and said he "felt sorry" for the man who said "phony" because a person such as him couldn't understand what it is I am doing. The man who said I was a "phony" intemted I was sending in letters after things happened, not before. (Which is quite wrong, of course.) Anyway, it was lots of fun .... and as usual, their telephone switchboard went absolutely crazy with the amount of calls. When we went off the air at 12:30 (program lasts until 2, and they had two more people to interview) telephone calls were still flooding the switchboard with people wanting to talk to me about the Si's. Now, the Si's would like you to do this: Both of you sit down, and write a long letter to Mr. Jack Mckinney, "Night Talk", Radio Station WCAU, Philadelphia, Pa. Tell him in detail of our using PK in Phoenix, and on our long long trip (without telling him we were broke, ha ha). Tell him how we worked with the hurricanes in Myrtle Beach, etc. And ask him, if he tells the people about their report, to give me a callus so I can listen. (Send me a copy of your letter when you write him.){} If you have a friend who has one of these "World radios" you could even hear the program. (Dove?) Must run now. Love always Dad P.S.

It is an afterthought ... two days after appearing on your program, and is a rebuttal to the gentleman who phoned in, asking if it was not "childish" of the Si's to kill two of our Astronauts (plane crash not too long ago) and harass NASA and the U.S. Govt., just for the sake of demonstrations of their powers. My rebuttal: Is it not true that we, the United States, have killed goodness knows how many innocent little babies, and their mothers ... in Viet Nam ... PURELY BY ACCIDENT, MIND YOU ... in order to teach North Viet Nam and China a lesson? The U.S. has been giving tremendous bombing demonstrations for one main purpose ... to show our muscles to N. Viet Nam and China. And this has resulted in our accidentally bombing and killing not only many innocent Vietnamese ... but even many of our own boys ... ACCIDENTALLY. Now, I put it to the gentleman who called; If the Si's are "childish" for killing two of our astronauts ... what does that make us people, who have done far worse ... and for the same reason, teaching a lesson. That would put our U.S. thinking somewhere BELOW childish, I believe. Tell the gentleman to think about it. I'm sure I'm right. Sincerely, P K Man (Owens) Leve - Dad. === Page 213 of 246 Wednesday, June 1, 1966 Nr. George Check Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Today's decision on the part of WASA to serub the Gemini 9 mission was probably the smartest thing they have done in years. Then I realized the Si's had let the target get up (but the shroud is yxxxx probably on to foul up a docking attempt) I realized the Si's were playing & bigger game today ... more than just the eat-and- mouse game of knocking down the target vehicle, thus leaving the astronauts stranded and junking the mission. Then I remembered ... one of the astronauts is an Air Force man. And I also remembered the recent Si warning that they would deal # smashing blow to the U.S. Government soon ... also their warning that thay would severely punish the Air Force for calling their attempts to be seen, and officially recognized, as "marsh gas." I put the pieces together ... and it all came out a complete destructio of the rocket and men today. It would all tie togather, and I am absolutely positive that is what would have occurred. I know for a fact that the Si's were there today ... poised and ready. Or, to be more exact, their remote-controlled weapons ware there. All this occurred to me 15 minutes before the rocket was to go up. When It was sorubbed, I brenthed a deep sigh of relle[. For I am not a killer, and would not see the astronauts destroyed. P K Man (Owens) === Page 214 of 246 Wednesday, June 1, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: In my letter to you of March 26, 1966 (less than three months ago) I told you that the UFO Intelligences would now harass the Air Force as they have been doing MASA, I said: "Knowing what I know, LE 1 were the Air Force I would be scared witless. But of course, who ever heard of warsh gas being dangerous? To make it clear ... the Si's (saucer intelligences) are now going to teach the Air Force z lesson it will never forget. They are turning their attention to the harassment of the Air Force in a big way.

Dear Mr. Eastwood: Been a lot of action since my daughter and I visited you, eh? At that time my "PK" work must have seemed amusing to you. However, by now, after sending you copies of predictions over a long period of time, you are now better able to evaluate properly the results of "PX". You must admit, the Si's have been busy. Below is a list of rockets, missiles, etc., fired up by NASA which were hit by "PK" and duly logged in my little black book, as the action took place on each, AND WHICH WERE THEN DESTROYED OR DISABLED WITH EK MISSION ACCOMPLISHED: Saturn Rocket Ranger 6 Titan 2 Titan 3 Orbiting Geophysical Observatory (OGO-A) Minuteman 1 Imp 2 Mariner 3 Minuteman 1 Tiros Weather Rocket Centaur Rocket Scout Rocket Titan 34 Space Glider on Thor Delta (Project Asset, above) Atlas-Centaur Rocket (Project Surveyor, above) "Snapshot" - Ion Engine Rocket Air Force Tracking Rocket, Star Gemini 5 - Hit by EMK storm, fire, lightning & mechanical failure ... but still managed to get up and down.

Atlas-Centaur Rocket New Polaris Rocket, Cape. Explorer Satellite Rocket Saturn Moon Rocket Test Stage, Miss. (Note: After "testing" PK on the first two of this list, I then began writing the Cape and the State Department of what would happen ... and also wrote them that lightning would hit the Cape, as well as hurricanes, as a result of PK work. Then Lightning hit a lightning-proof pad at the Cape. Later, last July, lightning hit another pad, actually striking some workers. And lightning hit very close to Gemini 5. As for my hurricane prediction ... you know well Hurricane Cleo, Hurricane Dora, and Hurricane Isbell sideswiped Cape Kennedy. Hurricane Gladys missed, but just the same tore up the work at the Cape for a time, just from the threat of her. Hurricane Hilda bullseyed on the Michoud Space Complex. Hurricane Betsy bullseyed on Michoud Space Complex, and she bullseyed on NASA's Bahamas set-up. These five different hurricanes that hit NASA were guided by PK work. Then we have to add the destruction of The Space Eye, down near the Cape. One Russian spaceship was worked on by PK - the Voshkod Spaceship, and it was brought down exactly as I said it would be. Crashed in the woods. Add to this list further results of the PK - side-effects - which I do not like, but which happened: Drydon, Deputy Director of NASA, died. Lovelace, Chief of NASA, killed ia crash. One Astronaut killed when a bird flew into his plane, and it crashed. Tuo Astronauts killed in another plance crash. General Branch of NASA killed in crash. Now, the following list are the "ones that got away" from PK, and were successful shots: McNamara's Minuteman from silo, Cape. Gemini From Cape, 1/'65. Explorer Satellite, 12/'64 Minuteman 2 from Cape, 12/'64 O.s.o., 1/2/65 2/17 Cape Rocket === Page 218 of 246 6.4.66 Page Three (Continued - Successful Shots) 2/18 Cape Rocket Gemini 3 Ranger 9 Gemini 6-7 Hangar Polaris, new, Cape Surveyor Moon Rocket Now just compare the two lists. See the difference? Vandenberg shots were left clear by the Si's, so that the U.S. Govt. could be able to tell the difference between an area inundated with "PIC" ... and a free area. (Electra, the California coast, is PK'de, but it is a completely different type of oPK than the Electro, or Florida coast.) I think the Si's have proved their point terrifically, don't you? Point is, the PK grows, as I explained to you when I met you. It grows as time goes by ... gets stronger and more powerful. That is why the Si's cannot be ignored ad infinitum, as they have been in the past ... or called "marsh gas" and dismissed with a flip of the hand. And of course, the point of all that destruction PR was not that it was done for meaness or ornriness ... but TO PROVE THAT PK FORCES NOW EXIST AND CAN DEFEAT ANY OR ALL PARTS OF THE U.S. EFFORTS TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL. Also, TO PROVE THAT THE UFO'S ARE BEHIND IT, AND ARE DOING IT. Also, TO SHOW THE U.S. GOVT., BY THE DEMONSTRATIONS OF THESE TREMENDOUS POWERS, WHAT COULD BE DONE TO HELP THE U.S. GOVT. FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PK COIN. What is a dirty shame ... a lowdown dirty shame ... is that the people of the United States ... the man on the street ... cannot be told by the U.S. Government about this ... that NASA has actually done a superb job, and the Cape workers, and the Astronauts, have done heroic work ... trying in the face of this horrendous PK to succeed in space work ... and in a few cases actually succeeding! It's much much later now, Mr. Eastwood ... but I repeat, the PK is still growing in size and power on the Cape Kennedy area (Electro). And it can only be taken down, erased, removed, by the Si's. And I do their human talking for them, for better or for worse. Some day somebody had better talk to me. P K MAN (Owens) Love Dal 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 219 of 246 Sunday, April 17, 1966 Mr. George Clark, CIA Tornie Doar Goorge: First, let me pass on to you the hottest message I have had in quite a while from my UFO friends .. . received about noon today. Unless the U.S. Govt. meets their wishes soon, and approaches me, they are going to do the following: The recent uprising against Ky and the American govt. in Viet Nam was merely a spark. The UFO's will ignite entire Agia against the U.S. Government and sweep out every white from Asia ... all ... and instead of a spark hhere will ৳ a roaring fire in Agia ... against America. I know how they will do this ... and unbelievably, to set these forces in motion to reach the above conclusion. .. will only take the Si's a matter of seconds in our time. Don't believe that, do you. But I assure you, it is so. As if to underline their communication with me today, one of their remote- controlled "craft" was watched for hours, this morning, by police and onlooker: while it travelled from Ohio into Pennsylvania. Understand this fact ... the Viet Cong, and the Chinese of Poking, want a massacure of Americans in Viet Nam ... a terrible blood bath ... and right now the Americans are there, in the jaws of the trap. The UFO's advise that nothing at all can save our hundreds of thousands there, unless the U.S. Govt. quickly contacts me and makes arrangements as por their previous instructions. Then, and only then, will the UFO intelligences help us out of Viet Nam, without suffering the worst catastrophe in the history of the U. S. You know, Georg -... some people do not take me seriously. Mrs. Mangels, in Washington, did not take me seriously. . and all sorts of catastrophies hit her including a physical beating from hoodlums on the street, the sudden death of her brother, and so on. January 11, 1966, I sent a letter to my kids ( you met them) c/o Shannon in Inglewood, California (Shannon does not take me seriously, either). In the letter to them I wrote: "The Si's want me to tell you ... if anyone at all blocks mail addressed to you ... keeps you from getting it ... God help them. It sort of worries me. If they were mad enough about your leaving me . . . they might wipe out the Bentleyes and the Shannons, just like that." Woll, George it has begun. Two weeks ago Mary Bentley, sister of my ex-wife, Pat Shannon, ' was found dead in N.w York. No matter how she died (I do not know how) the disturbing fact is ... she died shortly after the Si's communicated with me to write that letter. Probably the U.S. Govt. has not taken me seriously, re my ship-sub-plane PK, but the Michaelangelo and three other ships just ran into it and got chewed up by it. Also the waves will help undo the U.S. east coast drought. But there was more than waves involved ... there was PK power. And to top it off .. . as if the Cape Kennedy PK pounding were not bad enough recently ... now you have a strike down there that will paralyze the entire Space Center. P K Man (Owehs) Love, Dad P.S.

One of the big ones, that is. For some time I have been trying to get them to do just that ... but not unti today did they signal that they were going to come into Philadelphia ... into Center City ... to try a contact with me. That is how important it is to them to make a contact physically with their human contact. I understand from "thinking with them" that ordinarily they hate to go into a city ... down around buildings, etc. But ... frustrated over the U.S. Government's refusal to help me meet them in the Michigan woods, or in an isolated European castle ... then they will make an effort to find me, here. They know where I am at all times ... but reaching me with one of their large craft ... that's something else.

A Ridley Park man said he The man, John W. Brown, of 237 Stoney Hill rd., said the thing, which he spotted from his backyard, "was well over 10,000 or 12,000 feet high. It was directly overhead and going on a bullet trajectory and died out about 15 degrees above the hori- zon." VAPOR TRAIL LEFT An official of Yale University Observatory in Connecticut said the object might have been a Bolide - a type of meteor which enters the atmophere at slower speeds and seems to travel at a level altitude. The object's long tail left a vapor trail similar to that left by jet planes at high altitudes. This brought fears it was a plane burning and about to crash. Flying saucer fears also were rampant, especially, in all prob- ability, since the recent mysteri- ous UFO sightings in Michigan and elsewhere. 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 223 of 246 In Asbury Park, N.J., some- one with a wilder explanation told the city's newspaper, "I saw a head peering out a port- hole." Near Atlantic City, an engi- neer at the National Aviation Facilities Experimental Corp., at Pomona, told State Police the object was a meteor that ex- ploded on entering the earth's atmosphere. Descriptions of the object. ranged from "huge Roman Candle" to "starburst," "fire- works," and "flying saucers." Its color varied in observers' eyes from dazzling white to blue green or red. All agreed on one thing the object was traveling on a descending course from south to north. 'LANDING' REPORTED Police from the Carolinas to Toronto checked reports of downed aircraft or that the ob- ject landed in their areas. "Ev- eryone thought it came down near them," a Coast Guard of- ficial said. In Bucks county, a woman called police to say the fireball crashed down on the Levittown parkway. In Scranton, a man was talk- ing on the phone with another man in Binghamton, N. Y. They saw the object at the same time. === Page 224 of 246 forme 201 Tuesday April 19, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Something momentous is in the wind ... with the Si's. So big, that they are actually going to attempt to bring one of their craft down into Philadelphia to contact me! One of the big ones, that is. For some time I have been trying to get them to do just that ... but not until today did they signal that they were going to come into Philadelphia ... into Center City ... to try a contact with me. That is how important it is to them to make a contact physically with their human contact. I understand from "thinking with them" that ordinarily they hate to go into a city ... down around buildings, etc. But ... frustrated over the U.S. Government's refusal to help me meet them in the Michigan woods, or in an isolated European castle ... then they will make an effort to find me, here. They know where I am at all times ... but reaching me with one of their large craft ... that's something else. So .... when you read about the UFO seen in Philadelphia, in the days or weeks ahead ... you will know who it is linking up with. Incidentally ... had you given any thought to the UFO that wer seen this Sunday, and the police chased it almost 100 miles ... and when it got ahead of the police, it waited for them to catch up? Same with the Waunaque, N.J., UFO ... it first was sigheed by police ... and was actually over a police station. This one Sunday came down over the police car. They are "talking" ... and "police" or "law and authority" are what they are talking about. Then you will notice they lead the police and everybody else to the town of ... Freedom. Then, and only then, it vanished, Think about it, George. P K Man (Owens) Love Dad 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 225 of 246 Rick- why not write Dex Anderson in San Gabriel? July 1, 1966 P.S.

Church of Sota (Secrets of the Ages) Healing and New Life -The Science of the Soul- Start legal church in L.A., lawyers Neiman and Soroty. Find and develop Sota Masters ... Master Healers ... which I'11 teach to use PK, and they'11 become Church Heads. But there will be few. Each member of the Sota Church will be assigned to a Master ... for their individual needs to be taken care of, and to progress. (My Ft. Worth work, etc.) SOTA LIBRARY - Books pertaining to our teachings and training. Also complete library on psychic phenomena, hypnosis, etc. SOTA HOSPITAL - Medical Doctors, Psychologists, and Sota Masters. THE SOTA SLEEP - under medical framework. If Sota member wishes to withdraw from the world temporarily, let them ... to avoid a psychosis or suicide, and use Sota techs on them while they sleep. SOTA RESEARCH FOUNDATION - research on UFO's, parapsych, the soul, healing, etc. SOTA HAVEN - will take care of any pregnant mother, no questions asked, delivery of child, and find job afterward for her, plus way to take care of her baby. Complete follow up, no charges for anything. SOTA LODGE - Headquarters and Retreat for the few Masters ... each having a small, individual, comfortable cottage. A woodsy place for creative work and thinking, and teaching.

It will be a tedious job, and I'm the only one who can do it.) Each Master will be made a Dr. of Philosophy and Dr. of the Soul, and will be issued a special beautiful ring, Sota Ringm made out of copper and precious stones. Each Member of the Sotas will be issued a Sota talisman, PK'd, for wear around the neck. There will be a special Lake ... PK'd ... like Lourdes ... will work like Lourdes. There will be special rooms, PK'd for special effects. Remember the PK grows and grows and becomes more powerful ... so the PK in the room will take effect on any who go into the room (like the curses on the old Egyptian tombs which took effect long long after all the people vanished, on the British and Americans who plundered the tombs ... ) except our PK will be constructive and useful, not destructive, in these roomss And so on. Our motto will be: "And It Came To Pass." Because that's what PK work does ... it comes to pass ... earthquakes, hurricanes, lightning attacks, etc etc. Brenda Sue, Mrs. White in Ft.

Love, Dad 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 227 of 246 Copy _ Rick Tanie March 10, 1966 President Johnson Dear Mr. President: I have some very good news ... from the UFO intelligences ... to P K Man ... to you. The Si's have decided to end the entire drought on the East Coast. They have told me to communicate this to the U.S. Government. In the days, weeks and months to come there will be rain rain rain. .. not just a little, not just "above average" - but phenomenal rain. The Si's will fill the rivers, streams, etc., on the East and Northeast Coast with rainwater ... to overflowing. There will be no doubt whatsoever that this freakish rainfall is unnatural. They also told me to tell you that they want this on record. .. so that when it occurs the people will not consider it just an "accident of Nature." Their plan was for me to obtain money enough to have independence, so that I would not have to do ordinary work for a living ... since now they can only communicate with me through "cracks and crevices in time, instead of through an "open door" in time, as would be the case if I were free to work with them constantly. This money mentioned above was to be made by me as "The Rainmaker" and by me breaking the drought on the East Coast for the money. However, my fellow humans would not listen ... would not accept. So the MSi's will make the stupid humans a present of the rain. But they warn ... and mark this well ... after the drought has been completely alleviated, and the humans on the East Coast are smug and happy with their supply of water ... then if the U.S. Govt. continues to ignore P K Han and refuses to help him, and cooperate with the Si's ... then the Si's will strike the U.S. with something far far worse than drought, as punishment. And they do not communicate idle words. So, I am very happy that the East Coast will soon be inundated with rain and water. Our friends, the Si's, will now demonstrate their gentle, good side ... and it is their predominant side, as a rule. You, and the U.S. Government, and the people of the U.S., can thank God the Si's are trying to help us, and one on our side. Would be sad if they gave up on us, and took their powers elsewhere to some other, more frindly and cooperative, country to fulfill their pattern of action they are determined upon. P K Man (Owens) 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 228 of 246 March 9, 1966 President Johnson Dear Mr. President: This is the next important letter of warning to the U.S. Govt. from the UFO intelligences (Si's) ... following their last letter of warning, dated August 11, 1965, written by me to you from their communication. They wish to bring things up to date first. Since their last warning there have been an unprecedented number of airplane and ship accidents ... not at all accidental ... caused by UFO methods. They call it "Ship-Sub-Plane PK", "Storm PK", etc. Although catastrophes have been caused by the UFO's all over the world, to fit their pattern of planning ... we are concerned here with only those catastrophes affecting the U.S., of which, as I said, there have been an unprecedented number and in an ever-increasing cyclical rythm ... if you have noticed. Unless action is taken by the U.S. Government to cooperate with the Si's ... and form a friendly alliance with them ... matters will get much worse in all departments ... Nature, political, financial, health, etc. As they stated before, in my previous letters, it is as in the days of Moses. Speaking, that is, of their catastrophe-effects. In their last letter of warning to you and the U.S. Govt. they warned that catastrophes would increase in number and scope. This has certainly happened, on a giant scale ... although no attention has been paid, that I know of, to their important warnings by the U.S. Govt. XX As you can see, from the list that follows, many of these catastrophes have been the worst experienced here in the U.S. in 100 years ... and some of them the worst ever experienced in the entire history of the U.S. - thus bearing out my message to you from the Si's in the last letter of warning that this would be so. Interesting is the fact that the Si's warned in my letter of February 12, 1965, that the Russ would form small teams to smuggle atom bombs into our U.S. cities for a Trojan Horse attack from within the U.S. This was confirmed by articles in the newspapers just yesterday, quoting J. Edgar Hoover of the FBI warning of the Russ planning to do just that, 1.e., bring in small atom bombs. Also in my past correspondence the Si's warned that they would attack our Stock Market and cause a "storm" therein, to show how they could affect our financial structure, if they wished to do so. These past two weeks you have seen it happen. And unless we make friends with the Si's they might just tear down the structure Please see my letter of January 31, 1966, and read entire letter. 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 229 of 246 2 3.9.66 In this letter is a paragraph: "They (the Si's) are curious to know ... must they do something worse than put the entire U.S. in the deep freeze? Or will the U.S. make friends with them?" They had their answer ... the U.S. did not make friends ... P K Man was not contacted ... so they did many things worse! It would take too long to list all of the great catastrophes which have struck the U.S. since the Si's last warning to you ... so let us just samm up the past two months: Jan. 31: (Following are newspaper headlines which tell the story) "Worst Storm of Century Hits South .... breaking records that date back to 19th Century." "A severe combination of snow, wind, and icy cold hit most of the Nation, tying up highway, rail, and air traffic ... Washington was virtually paralyzed." ""Northeast Lashed As Another Storm Blows Up In Plains." Feb. 1: "The fury of one of the worst winter storms in years moved into the North Atlantic last night, leaving the Eastern Seaboard and the South battered." ... 34 Degrees Below Zero At Russellville, Alabama." Feb. 1: "New Storm Hits The South and MidWest" - "A new storm today rolled across the Midwest and South, and moved for the snow-packed Mid Atlantic States. In Florida ... nearly all the crops of tomatos, peppers, cucumbers, squash, sweet corn, and poll beans were destroyed." Feb. 1: "30 Foot Drifts Bury Cities In Upper New York" - "Whole counties of Upper New York State lay buried Tuesday, under drifts up to 30 feet deep ... after one of the worst snow storms on record. Winds sometimes approached hurricane velocity." Feb. 2: (Catastrophe in Viet Nam) The First Cavalary was riddled with .50 caliber machine gun fire ... from their own side. Captain Fox there said he had never seen anything to compare with this accident. Sgt. Standfield there said hehad seen no parallel to it in three wars. Feb. 3: "6 men were killed in a C-47 crash in the Navy Operation Deep Freeze in the Antarctic." "It was the worst crash of the Navy's 11-year Operation Deep Freeze in the Antarctic." Feb. 10: "Tornado Hits Houston Area." - "The storm was the worst to hit Houston in years. Winds of 100 mph were reported in Houston." Feb. 11: "Tornados Wrack Texas" - "A massive storm system that spawned tornados ... dissipated in the Gulf of Mexico." (Almost skipped this one ... President Johnson declared American Samoa a 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 230 of 246 3 3.9 66 P93 a major disaster area, because of a hurricane which just recently struck it. Feb. 12: Lightning struck a plane near the airport at Rome. This happened once to a plane Mrs. Johnson was on, as I recall. And it was recently discovered that tremendous air turbulence blew the plane apart near Tokyo recently ... as the same thing happened to a plane over Florids last year. Of course, Florida is the "Electro" area ... a supercharged PK area. The lightning and the force appdied Kexkha for the air turbulence are of course Si phenomena. (This above is not a catastrophe; but wanted to bring it in as a point of interest.) Feb. 11: Meningitis struck at San Antonio, Texas; Ft. Gordon, Georgea; Lackland AFB, Texas - and other U.S. locations. Feb. XX 20:"Cold Sweeps 17 State Area" (Broke records everywhere in these areas.) Feb. 21: "Flu Epidemic Grips California - Schools Closed." "Flu Bug Spreads Throughout California" Feb. 23: "Tornados Splash Across South" "Tornados Cause Heavy Damage In North Carolina and Georgia" Feb. 28: "Two Astronauts Killed As Jet Hits Plant Housing Gemini 9" March 1: "Stocks Dive 13.70 Points" "Worst Dip In 8 Months Rocks Stock Market" March &: "Tornados Rill 60, Hurt 497, In Two Dixie States" March 5: "Snow Still Falling In Blizzard of Central U.S." - "This was the worst blizzard in recorded history ... since the Weather Bureau began keeping records." Now ... Mr. President .. the Si's want you and the Government to know absolutely that they created all this damage and harassment to further prove what I have been saying ... that I am their "reporter" (as a newspaper hires a reporter to carry the news to the readers) to the U.S. Govt., and that they can and will do what they say they can and will. To summarize the above 2-month list: THE ENTIRE U.S. WAS MADE A DISASTER AREA! Just look. EAST COAST - Worst blizzard in 100 years. WEST COAST - Struck with Flu and Meningitis epidemics. SOUTH - Worst cold freeze in 100 years. Killer tornados. 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 231 of 246 3.9.66 pg 4 4 NORTHWEST - Worst blizzard in the entire history of the Weather Bureau. MIDWEST - Worst cold in 100 years. Plus blizzard. HOUSTON, TEXAS - Attacked by tornados. MISSISSIPPI - Attacked by tornados. ALABAMA - Attacked by tornados. NORTH CAROLINA - Attacked by tornados. GEORGIA - Attacked by tornados. CALIFORNIA - Killer meningitis. TEXAS - Killer meningitis. NEW JERSEY - Killer meningitis. ALABAMA - Killer meningitis. All this, in only two month's time! It does not include the Great New York Blackout ... or the terrible, paralyzing New York Transit Strike ... or the many crashes of huge airplanes ... or the loss, one way or another, of Köpk top key government personnel ... and so on. NOTE: The Si's are hereby notifying the U.S. Government that, just as they predicted in their last warning ... the catastrophes that have just occurred, record-breaking though they may be, are only a sample of what lies ahead for the U.S. Government ... unless the U.S. Government makes friends with them, and accepts them as an ally. Their conditions for this have been spelled out, previously, several times. The Si's warn ... brace yourself ... because there will be an unexpected twist in Viet Nam ... and our forces will be lucky if they even manage to escape from there with their lives ... regardless of all our military might. (But the Si's can extricate us from that mess, and only they can, if we allow them.) The Si's state that only they can stop U.S. catastrophes, and help the U.S. out of all the troubles that it is in. They also think my Government is erazy for not even giving the Si-power a try-out in the U.S.'s behalf. We can spend millions beautifying highways ... give millions to foreign countries ... but will not trouble to make friends with the Si's ... who are the only ones who can help us. President Johnson ... once more I respectfully ask that you invite me to your Texas ranch for a weekend and discuss this. It is the last time I will ... can .. ask. To sum up ... in my first "Letter To The American People" I predicted great catastrophes. They came. In my# second letter of warning to you, Mr. President, I predicted more and bigger catastrophes. They came. In this, my third letter of warning from the Si's ... I am predicting even bigger, even more terrible catastrophes ahead for the U.S. Government. THERE IS NO TIME TO LOSE. Send for P K Man, UFO representative, immediately, 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 232 of 246 5 3.9.66 195 and arrange to join forces with the Si's. The Si's predict that the day will come when the U.S. Government, when in trouble, will come to P K Man to send a message to the Si's to get them out of trouble ... just as you would go to the Western Union to send a wire. If the U.S. Government takes good care of me, that is. If anything happens to me, the U.S. Government will never again have this opportunity in this lifetime. In closing, the Si's want you to know that this message, this letter, comes straight from them ... through me ... and they are the same UFO intelligences (saucer intelligences) seen over the Wanaque Reservoir not long ago. Also they want to repeat ... the catastrophes suffered by the U.S. these past months have been produced by the Si's to impress the U.S. Govt. with their powers ... to reinforce the message read by Jack Mckinney over Jack's "Night Talk" Radio Show last summer here in Philadelphia. Owens P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce, #33 Philadelphia, Pa. === Page 233 of 246 August 2, 1966, Tuesday Dear Lornie: Thank you very much for writing the letter. I thought perhaps you'd entered a monastery somewhere and wouldn't be out again for ten years. You are right not to worry aboutkys your grades. Just do the best you can do, when going to school, learn all that you can ... especially the things you are interested in ... remember that lots of the teachers are stupid, neurotic wrecks, and they do play favorites ... and if your grades are low, then you have the best attitude about it. If you're not figuring on being a nuclear physist (that dam word I always spell wrong) or like that ... then why worry? Just be sure and get your diploma, then toddle off to the Beauty School with the $600 you've saved out of your weekly allowance, and all is well. Why, just think of those heads of hair you can run your fingers through and tie in knots, if they fuss at you. When I think of all the chaos and carnage you can commit on the heads of innocent citizens ... why, the scope is limitless! (ha ha - it's a joke.) Actually, in all seriousness, I should think you would be a Champion Hair Dresser, Beautician, or whatever they call it. You are creative ... you have quick little hands ... and you are very intelligent. So you will do fine. However, let'ss don't cross any bridges. By the time you get out of High School you just might decide to be a Fireman, or run for Governor, or something like that. Teenagers are notoriously fickle about deciding what they are really going to do. I just hope you don't get out of H.S. then decide what you really want to do is go to college! So, Rick got a surfboard. All he needs now is a loaded .45 automatic. Yes, you had ought to write Martha personal letters, addressed to her. I know she will answer them. Glad you saw "Mice and Men." You see my point, then. What on earth will you do without a phone? You'll get constipation of the conversation, kid. If you get too frustrated ... get one of these toy phones in the dime store and sit in your room and make up phone calls to your girl friends and talk away. That's what Beau does. Have you ever taken all my "George" copies and put them in date order in folders, and read them? If not, why not? Your dad has done something no other human being has done since the time of Moses! I have been literally doing miracles! And you two numbnoses do not even seem to realize it. Two other top govt. agencies besides NASA and CIA have recently spent hours with me, going over my material. I can tell you, one of them is not really govt., although made up of top govt. men. . . NICAP, described in the back of the flying saucer book I sent you to read. The other agency I won't name ... but if you put the initials together, you're hissing. One thing for sure ... they weren't impressed by our tiny apartment! If you can, get away from the coast. The U.S. coastal areas are go9/92506:17 be destroyed ... devastated ... one of these days.

Am returning the picture Air Mail, az you request. Have two lorger, wellet size nies made for Marthe and me .. . plus a 5xll pic ... and let me know the cost. Will send it to you, and you send me the pics. Ckay? This is a fine picture, honey. You look great. And he does, as you say, look like a fine young man. I am very hoppy that you have such good taste in the opposite sex. So you flunked History, eh? But you did fine in your other subjects. Congratulations on a rood score. I had trouble with History, too ... hed e dull teacher, also. But maybe you can profit from a lesson I learned in high school. In my Senior year I decided to hell with whether I liked the teachers or not ... they were my grades that were going to show, and it was my time which would be wasted if I flunked ... so Lornie, believe it or not, all I did was study study study on Physics, the toughest course in Bedford I.S., with the toughest most unliked teacher ... and I got & B. The teacher told me himself, afterward, that any other teacher would have given me an A ... but being him, he didn't give out A's. Just B's to too students. Ugh. What a man. If I'd based my action and hours of time on whether I liked him or not ... I'd have flunked flat out. ButI used to be like you in my early H.S. years. Incidentally, your camera will use color film. Just get 35 milimeter film. It has a terrific lens. You know, I sent you some pics from it. Don't worry about presents, hon. Remember all the times when I was flat broke et Xmes or birthdays. Ne ha. Nothing new to us, eh? Beau is something else. Words cannot now describe him. He has to be observed to be believed. It is good that you have to earn your own money, honey. Builds character. T wes so proud of you end Rick on our adventuring, when you kids sold card fortunes, ironing board holders, etc. It was for the good of the gang ... and no one knows better than I thet you two can hold your own, anywhere, eny time. lust go no w Your three pals love you ... always know that. Sincerely, Dad 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 235 of 246 Thursday, August 25, 1966 Dear Lornie: Thank you very much for the two dandy cigars. They gave me several hours of pleasure. Honey, I don't know what you are talking about when you mention my being sued by a radio station. I haven't been. If anybody did sue me, what could they possibly get? Mebbe an empty bird cage. four days? How did you like my producing Hurricane Faith in just (See my letter to you of last week ... Friday.) Those men weren't "detectives", Lornie. They are Secret Service men. I had written President Johnson that I had a bright idea for him to use, re his popularity improvement with the people ... and these two S.S. men came up to ask what it is. The idea, briefly, is for Johnson to appear on TV with Bob Hope, Groucho Marx, etc., and get some laughs ... and some empathy with the U.S. people. He's too grim and bitter. I pointed out what made Will Rogers lovable, and others, too ... and it was a sense of humor, and being able to make the people laugh, even in tough times. No. Costs money for the docs to go ahead and study Beau. And we haven't any right now. These two women here who have ridden my back and abused me worse than anyone in my entire life. .. are really bad, clear through. I never did hit them with PK, though, much as I was tempted. However, the Si's did ... they told me they were putting the two in PK bubbles, enclosing the yellow gas, and attaching two poltergeists to each of their backs .. . and this condition will go on for the rest of their lives. God. Makes me shudder to think of it. They are walking around, enclosed in that bubble from another dimension, and that horrible stuff inside the bubble with them! For the rest of their lives! Anyway, I didn't do it. But I did resign, to get away from them. Got a fine reference from the Boss, who understands. Tomorrow is my last day. We haven't moved yet. No way to do so. We need a jaloppy, and no way to promote one yet. The papers you sent will help me very much, and I love you for it. It is very humorous that the Commies offered me all I need ... yet I can't get it from my own Govt. I was tempted to take it, though. But I cannot. This is my own country, and I am staying with it, stupid though it may be at times. Be a good girl, and Martha and Beau and I miss you. Love, Ted. 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 236 of 246 Monday, August 8, 1966 Dear Lornie and Rick: I hope you are both well and happy. Had a visit not long ago from some Secret Service men. Friendly visit, in answer to my letters to the President. They were very much interested in some ideas I had sent. Also, am now being evaluated and analyzed (my work with the Si's is, that is) by a group of General Electric scientists. They think so highly of my work that they just gave me a signed confirmation on a number of my predictions-before-the-events ... and they just made me a present of a glistening, brand new Czech portable typewriter of my own. I have had one 3-hour session with them, and one 42 hour session with them ... everything taken down on tape recorder. And these are for-real SCIENTISTS. They say they know I am getting results, but they don't understand how ... and they want to help me, scientifically. Am having an awful time at work. Some psychotic woman, the sister of the brothers who own the business. .. rides me, every day, sadistacally. Follows me around calling me jerk and dope, and asking me why I do not make it rain inside the office. She's nuttier than a fruit cake, but mean-nutty. I would quit in a minute to get away from her, if there was anything else to go to. But there isn't in this hell-town. And no way to get out of the town. I told you this Company fined me $55.00 for missing one day to be on the radio. It has put Martha and I behind about six weeks in paying bills, etc., and we hardly eat right, what with the two-week layoff they gave everybody without pay ... with no warning. Well, enough sunshine and light. Write once every Christmas and tell me what's going on. Love and Kisses, 07/09/2025 16:17 === Page 237 of 246 Saturday, August 13, 1966 Lornie Owens 26005 Oak Street #18 Lomita, California 90717 Dear Lornie: Thankyou for writing. Notice this typewriter? It is a dandy, and was given to me as a present by some people interested in the Si's and their activities. Very nice people. Scientifically minded, just like Dave. He'd fit right in with them. I was very surprised that you remembered about my hitting the Beatles with PK ... an unusual thing to do, and you will remember I actually apologized to George for it. Remember why? I told you ... it was pitiful that the Beatles were getting more attention and devotion . from the kids of the U.S., than the kids were paying to the Bible, Jesus, and God? I told youthat was wrong ... and so I hit them with PK with the express purpose of ending this state of things. And ITHAPPENED JUST THAT WAY. Took a long time, since we were in either Myrtle Beach or Washington when I sicked PK onto them. And it is amazing that they became disgraced to the point where Senators are trying to bar them and their records, etc., for the VERY REASON I issued PK at them. Jesus and the Bible! You must not be getting my mail. I sent you a letter-form to sign some time ago, listing the prediction hits I had sent you, before the events came true. Will dig up another, if I can find one, and send it. I imagine you'll be glad to get back to school, with all those activities which you like so much. Am quitting my job August 26 (have already quit, am leaving it then.) Have no plans or anything. Just getting the hell out of there. My Si friends just made a public appearance in Erie, Pa., and walked in full sight to within five feet of people. Also left tracks in the sand. Also walked straight into the water out of sight. Very interesting. I had predicted not long ago (see your file of copies) that they were due to make a public appearance soon ... and so something they hadn't done before ... and so they did. You would be surprised at the number of people who have tried to brainwash me away from my working with the Si's. It's a laugh. Might as well try to brainwash a hurricane. Here's another laugh ... the small amount of financial support I need to get isolated and bring the Si's down for a meeting. .. has been offered to me by a Communist organization. Took me out into the country onto a beautiful estate and showed me the layout and said, "All this is yours ... whatever you need for as long as you want. All you have to do is join us."

Vol. 273 No. 19 Torrential Showers Soak Parts of Area Water Crisis Eased By ALFRED P. KLIMCKE and WILLIAM B. COLLINS Of The Inquirer Staff 7/19 Thundershowers that hit parts of the Upper Delaware River Basin over the weekend swept into Greater Philadelphia on Sunday afternoon, drenching some sections with brief but torrential downpours. The showers have eased the water supply crisis for the time-being at least, according to Robert E. Fish, deputy river master. In Philadelphia sporadic street flooding and minor storm damage were reported in sections struck by the quick-skipping storm. Pea-size hailstones that accompanied the rain rattled against windows of Center City office buildings and West Philadelphia homes, stinging hapless pedestrians as they raced for cover. 30 ARE EVACUATED Weather observers at International Airport reported that .11 inches of rain fell there during one brief, heavy rainstorm and periods of light rain that followed it. A spokesman said heavier rain, up to nearly an inch, fell in some suburban areas west and northwest of the city. More than 30 persons were evacuated from three three-story apartment buildings on Mount Vernon st. after the brick facing on a 10 by 12 foot section of exterior wall at the rear of the center building collapsed minutes after the storm passed through the area. 12 FLEE BUILDING Residents of 2029 Mount Vernon st. told police of hearing "a rumble," and feeling their floors sag as the brick facing collapsed. Twelve residents of that building, nine of them young children, fled. Residents were also temporarily evacuated from the two adjacent structures. Lightning knocked two-feet off the top of a double chimney at 5028-30 Rorer ave., Feltonville. The brick crashed to a concrete patio in front of the row-house. Winds felled a number of trees and large branches throughout the city, blocking some traffic lanes temporarily 08/08/2025 15:09 === Page 2 of 38 CUTBACK ORDERED Fish said on Sunday that he was issuing orders for a cutback of the amount of water released from New York City and utility company reservoirs into the Delaware. "In the next two days, we will cut back about one third each day," Fish said. "This isn't a whole lot," he added, "but it is some saving, and we'll save what we can." Fish, who is with the U. S. Geological Survey, emphasized that the drought was not over and that the cutback may be a temporary thing. EMERGENCY STILL ON The water emergency declared on July 7 by the Delaware River Basin Commission still is in effect. Invoking its emergency powers, the commission ordered the release of a total of 466 million gallons a day from reservoirs in the upper basin. The action was taken to guarantee the fresh water supply of Philadelphia and New Jersey communities.

Mebbe I can do the same for you, next year. I hope so. You have greatly inspired me, Rick, with your picture of Trea, excellently drawn, and your notation on the back of the frame you made. That's what I like about you, Rick, you make things, creatively...and beautifully. That frame is a dandy. Your picture will be the very first item to be placed in our House of Sota (Church) as soon as it is formed, some day. I transferred all things from my old, beat-up wallet to the Moroccan wallet you gave me...it is a fine wallet. But equally I treasure the wallet you made, from alligator...and am carrying that and using it to save anything I can toward Sota. I.e., operating money in the new wallet; savings in your special hand-made wallet. I shall always keep it. 2 - pulled back on the slingshot to test it, and a rubber broke...so have hung it up on the wall and will always keep it on the wall, wherever I live...to remind me of you, your skill in making things with your hands, and of the fun we had with the old slingshot, across country, until it went for gas. Am using the shaving lotion every day, and I wrote on it in gold-leaf: "Ted Owens - P K Man." It's fine stuff. Little Beau had (and is having) a mighty fine time with all that you sent him; and the same for Martha. Would have done your heart good to see the joy with which Martha opened all the packages (I let her open them all, you know) and the delight with which each item was received. After all, Rick, Beau, Martha and I are sort of like 3 children. I'm man enough, but I'm still a kid at heart. I bet no other daddy got a slingshot and a tie with a naked mermaid on it from his teenager children. Ha ha!! Love & kisses Dad 08/08/2025 15:15 === Page 5 of 38 Honorary Chairman LYNDON B.

During this past week we have seen the finest of the deaf athletes from all over the world compete in the sports arena for the honor of themselves and their nations. We have seen friendships formed and ripened, we have gained new insights on each other and new understanding of ourselves and other people of the world. And such treasures are rare, not to be lightly cast aside, not to be soon forgotten or allowed to fall into disuse. It is the hope of this committee that what we have gained here will be of lasting nature, and the friends we have made will continue to be friends for the rest of time.

Federal registrars signed up hundreds of Negroes yesterday in nine counties the Justice Department said had a record of habitually denying Negroes the right to vote. The Justice Department intensified its attack on voter discrimination. It filed suits in Virginia, Alabama and Texas seeking to halt the use of a poll tax as a requirement for voting. The day ended parts of a century in for irrevocable political change. National Association States with Georgia, Tennessee and Texas the exceptions. In Americus, Ga., it took 100 years to put 1000 Negroes on the voting books. The impetus of the new federal voting law has more than matched that total in three days. The grand dragon of the Alabama Ku Klux Klan, Robert Creel of Bessemer, saw the new law as an aid to segregationists. He said the Klan will try to get "every white illiterate registered to vote." # Red Ship Tips Off Viet Raids HONOLULU, Aug. 11 (UPI) -- A Russian trawler which has been a fixture three miles off the entrance of Guam's Apra harbor since December apparently is providing Viet Cong guerrillas in South Vietnam with early warnings of B52 raids launched from Guam. # Greek King Mulls Coalition Cabinet ATHENS, Aug. 11 (UPI)--King Constantine may seek the formation of a coalition government to break the political deadlock which has kept Greece in turmoil for a month, informed sources said today. The 25-year-old monarch was expected to confer with politicians later today, but the Royal Palace refused comment on the report. Stephen Stephanopoulos, a member of the majority Center Union, appeared to be enough support in parliament. A coalition appeared to be Constantine's last chance for a solution during the current parliament. The only two legal alternatives left to the king are to call for new elections or to appoint a caretaker government. # Held for Kidnap of 2 Women Long Beach police booked a 21-year-old man early today on charges of kidnapping two women and holding them captive for several hours. He was identified as Bonito Estarpa, of 11417 E. 212th St., Lakewood. Officers said he released both his victims later. A committee of the state's tomato growers has approved a plan to keep the state's tomato harvest in the hands of domestic workers. The panel, meeting behind closed doors at the Fairmont, suggested that the 10,000 braceros be imported during the week of September 12.

"I've already gotten one fringe benefit from my stage career," she said. "I have a home in California, but I was having a terribly difficult time finding an apartment in New York. Our director Paul Bogart had been separated from his wife; but they reconciled. He moved back home turning over his vacated apartment to me. Now everybody's happy." Miss Rhue's costar in "Plans" will be British actor Edward Woodward. Incidentally, it's also a first Broadway attempt for Bogart. "I've been waiting a long time for a good Broadway part," Madlyn said during a rehearsal break. "I'm positive that this is it. At least, I was positive enough to turn down some well paying TV offers just to join with this very funny show." Her first Broadway try notwithstanding, Madlyn is no novice in the acting department. She has an impressive list of some 150 TV show credits "which run the gamut" and a dozen pictures including "Operation Petticoat," "Ladies Man," "A Majority of One," etc. But she is proudest of the critical notices she received as Gittel Mosca in "Two for the Seesaw," at the Civic Playhouse, in L.A. She is also proud of a collection of some 300 hats, most of which have been left in California. "I will only be able to bring 50 of them to Philadelphia with me," the actress lamented. ![MADLYN ... lucky start] MADLYN ... lucky start PEOPLE IN PLACES: Jack Jones, currently headlining at the Latin Casino, is slated to star on the Bell Telephone Hour's St. Valentine Day show.

A former "Miss Denmark" by virtue of her fulsome (39-20-35) endowments, Miss Thyssen was on hand with Loren C. Shockley and a flock of McCrory and Klein executives to cut the ribbon that officially opened the sewing and fabric section. "I made this dress I'm wearing," said Greta proudly, swiveling to demonstrate her "multi-colored printed organdy." It seemed to fit right well. "I am not giving up acting to become a seamstress," she added. "Not going that far. But I like to sew--it's part of the schooling of every girl in Denmark." TV and movies keep her commuting to Hollywood, but she calls New York "home." Her tour for the store chain is to call to the attention of femme shoppers how easy it is to follow fashion trends on a "do-it-yourself" basis.

Continued From First Page 32, and all we got was .77 inches of rain. Weather men calculate that the amount of precipitation to produce an inch of rain will produce about ten inches of snow. Last week we escaped two major snowfalls, on Sunday and Thursday, each of which would have ranged from five to six inches. On Sunday, however, the average temperature was 45 degrees, 13 above the normal of 32, and on Thursday it was 42, 10 above normal. The fourth big snow we didn't get was on Dec. 13. It would have been nearly ten inches except that the average temperature was 47, 13 degrees above normal. Another factor, in the snowless season, Stallard said, is that the major storms have been passing to the north through the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence Valley, rather than the Middle Atlantic States. We have had three light snow flurries scattered about Greater Philadelphia, Stallard said. The first was on Oct. 28 and the others Dec. 15 and 21. # Warm Weather Helped Cit Miss 4 Snows in a Month Philadelphia has had a snowless winter so far and you can blame it on the heat, not the humidity. In fact, we could have had four "significant" snow storms by now if it hadn't been unseasonably warm. That is the word from Glenn Stallard, chief of the U. S. Weather Bureau here. "Fortunate," he calls it, but that isn't the way kids with new sleds look at it. **Nonwhite Christmas** On Christmas Day, for example, the city could very well have been blanketed with an eight-inch snow.

I've clobbered Phila!!! === Page 27 of 38 Read this - They criticize me for using THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER, # Vietnam Villagers Suffer Dea By JOHN T. WHEELER BA GIA, Vietnam, July 18 (AP). -- The wailing of women and the stench of burned bodies greeted the column of troops as they marched wearily into Ba Gia. They were searching for a Vietcong force which earlier had overrun a nearby Government strong point. It turned out the search was fruitless. Four men carrying a pallet with a wounded man stared hatefully at American advisers accompanying the Vietnamese marines, seeming to accuse the Americans of the death and destruction. Sitting in the middle of a dirt road was a woman cradling a baby and flanked by two other small children. Her cries of anguish caused some of the Vietnamese troops to turn aside. Surveying the shattered stucco and bamboo homes and the machine-gunned Catholic Church, one U. S. adviser said: "That's why we are going to lose this stupid damn war. Senseless, it's just senseless." Ba Gia, with a high percentage of Catholics, was considered a progovernment village. It was hit three days running with AP Wirephoto Weeping woman cradles baby as South Vietnamese troops enter village of Ba Gia in search of Vietcong who had overrun Government strongpoint. 08/08/2025 15:36 === Page 28 of 38 Against U.S. Govt. in Viet Nam!! MONDAY MORNING, JULY 19, 1965 adh* 3 # th and Terror Meant for Reds bombs, rockets and cannon fire from American and Vietnamese fighter bombers. The first time was after the nearby outpost, headquarters of the 51st Regiment, was overrun by the Vietcong and two 105 mm howitzers taken. The second time was following an attack the next night. The third, as an American Air Force officer expressed it, was an insurance measure to clear the way for Government troops moving back into the area in a sweep to try to catch the Vietcong. The sweep was launched some 24 hours after the Vietcong regiment had pulled out of the area, one American adviser said later. Because the 51st Regiment was under strength due to previous maulings at the hands of the Vietcong and because Vietnamese troops normally fail to patrol aggressively and set out night ambushes, the Vietcong had been able to come into the village in strength. The villagers risked torture and death for themselves and their families if they tried to warn the outpost. So Ba Gia, like countless other villages in Vietnam, was caught in the middle and paid a terrible price, not for its politics but its physical location. A marine corpsman patched up wounded villagers and as the troops bedded down for the night villagers carried one body on a candlelit bamboo bed to the cemetery. Asked how many had been killed and wounded, villagers shrugged and replied "many." The next morning, a Vietnamese captain walked into the still smoldering ruins of one house. Hanging from a doorway that had survived were scorched flags and decorations. The captain fingered them pensively and said they were wedding decorations. A U. S. Air Force spokesman at Saigon, in commenting on air strikes in general, pointed out that targets are selected by Vietnamese commanders and that American strikes are only fulfilling requests from an ally. authors on his measure. Involved in the maneuvering is the issue of city vs. rural political strength. The National Conference of Mayors opposes the amendment because it would open a detour around the Supreme Court's one-man, one-vote decision, which would increase the strength of the cities in many legislatures.

DARLING Of The Bulletin Staff A rainmaker has come to Philadelphia. He says he'll break the drought for $10,000--a bargain rate. "I'd want $50,000 to do it in New York," he said. He's been here since the first of July. He said he whomped up the big storm that hit the city the weekend of July 11--remember? -- the first and only soaking rain we've had since December. "It wasn't easy," he noted. "I had to work on it for more than a week." Working on it, he said, requires a combination of parapsychology and "some things my grandfather told me about the way the Apache Indians used to make rain." The rainmaker is a slightly balding, well-fed man in his middle 40s with a pleasant smile and an engaging personality. Ted Owens **Knife-Thrower in Circus** His name is Ted Owens and he was once a professional knife-thrower with the circus. "I'm probably the best knife-thrower in the country," he said, modestly. He wrote a letter to The Bulletin as soon as he arrived in the city and said he was working on a big rainstorm. He wrote another letter after the storm hit, pointed out that he had made everybody happy, and explained why: "I live here now and I do not like hot, dry weather. Therefore Philadelphia will be wetter and cooler than the rest of the U. S. this summer. The people here are lucky . . ." He also said he was working on another storm for Philadelphia for the next weekend. The rain came, a bit north of producing storms to the government. **Turned Down by Government** He took all three briefcases along to prove his point. But, he said, he couldn't make the right contacts. Since the government didn't want his information for free, he decided to try at least to make a living out of it. He said he came to Philadelphia because it is in the center of the present drought area and he wanted to interest some big cities in buying his services. He was reluctant to explain just how he went about producing a storm--not that there was any big secret to it, he said, but because it is a complicated business. Visual Imagery === Page 30 of 38 the city, but enough to produce a good downpour here and .8 of an inch in Montgomery County. Letter Arrives The letter came the next day--Monday, July 19. "Well, I told you," wrote the rainmaker. "You just enjoyed my storm which I referred to in my letter. I was right there in Rittenhouse Square yesterday, calling down the storm and especially the lightning, which is my trademark." He signed his name THE RAINMAKER, c-o Owens. He was finally located in a Spruce st. hotel. He said he was born in Indiana, has had 20 different "professions" besides knife throwing and studied extrasensory perception at Duke University. Says Combination Works He was living in Phoenix, Ariz. in 1963, he said, when he decided to try combining ESP with the Apache Indian rainmaking act. "The Indians had a good thing going but they didn't really know what they were doing," he said. "They thought they had to dance and take drugs and that sort of thing." To his surprise, the combination worked and he got "eight violent storms in five days," he said. He opened one of three well-stuffed briefcases and pulled out a folder containing newspaper clippings of each of the eight storms. The clippings were neatly pasted up, numbered and dated. "This proves it," he said. "The storms nearly wrecked that part of Arizona." Out House Hit One bolt of lightning hit his own house. He said he wasn't scared, "just amused." He moved to Los Angeles and said he produced some rainstorms which culminated in the big landslides of November, 1964. The rainmaker said he doesn't really want to hurt anyone. Pictures of storm damage--houses with the roofs blown off, automobiles wrecked by falling trees--bothered him at first. But he said he got used to them. He went to Washington, D. C. to try to explain his talent for "It's partly a matter of contacting the intelligence behind nature," he said. "It also involves imagery." To explain visual imagery, he took a piece of paper and wrote numbers from one to 20 down the left side. He handed the paper to an observer and told him to write down an object after each number, calling out the number and the object as he did so. 1. Umbrella. 2. Puddle. 3. Camera. 4. House. etc. Without looking at the paper, he read off the numbers and the objects, first going from one to 20; then from 20 back to one. He had the observer pick out numbers at random, and he called off the corresponding object. Then he had the observer call the objects and he gave their numbers. Maybe the rainmaker has just been lucky with storms. But there's certainly nothing wrong with his visual imagery. === Page 31 of 38 YOU SMARTY PANTS PROFESSORS LIKE OURS YEAH!!

Flaming objects falling from it touched off fires in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan. The Army and State Police sealed off an area near Midland, Pa., on the Pennsylvania-Ohio border and another area in Lorain county, Ohio, where falling debris was reported. The areas were sealed with the explanation: "There is an unidentified flying object in the woods." The fireball was seen by airplane pilots and residents of Canada, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Virginia, New York and Pennsylvania. **NOT MILITARY CRAFT** The Defense Department in Washington said first reports indicated the fireball was a natural phenomenon. A department spokesman said all military hardware--aircraft, missiles and the like--were accounted for. **FIRES NEAR CLEVELAND** The object apparently landed in woods near Kecksburg. Other early reports indicated it touched off a series of small grass fires in woods 20 miles south of Cleveland and deposited two "small stacks of shredded foil" in a swamp near Lapeer, Mich. Pentagon sources indicated they believed it was a meteorite. Dr. Paul Annear at Baldwin Wallace College said the object could have been a "bolide," a meteor which disintegrates while falling to earth. **DETROIT 'EXPLOSION'** Annear added that the large number of sightings by airplane pilots indicates considerable validity in the reports. Coast Guard officials reported from Windsor, Ont., that a flying object "exploded" over the Windsor-Detroit area. Pilots in the area saw a flash and felt shock waves on the fuselage of their planes. The Coast Guard reported that four vessels were dispatched onto Lake St. Clair but were unable to find any trace of the object. Pilots coming into Windsor said they saw the flash and felt the shock waves. A U. S. weather observer in Columbus, O., said he saw an object to the east which looked like a meteor. In Pennsylvania, State Police were swamped with calls about the "strange fiery object." The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, Mass., said it had recorded sighting of a "falling fir === Page 33 of 38 # 'Fireball' Lands Near Pittsburgh Continued from First Page or flashes of light in the sky. At Lapeer, searchers said they found two small stacks of foil within 10 feet of each other. Other foil was scattered over the swamp. Samples of the foil were sent to the Air Force for laboratory tests. Lapeer deputy sheriff Lenny Tolly said he found "about a peck" of foil in two piles. The foil appeared to be made of lead and was shredded in strips a sixteenth of an inch wide. Meanwhile, a boy reported seeing a flaming object fall from the sky into woods near his home on the outskirts of Cleveland. "I was in the back yard," the boy said, "when I glanced up and saw a fireball. It landed in the woods across the road and it had a funny smell." === Page 34 of 38 # Victim of the Storm ![A photograph showing the damaged exterior of a house with two women looking up at the roof.] -Herald-Examiner Photo A bolt of lightning ripped holes in this home, 653 Hagar St., San Fernando, causing fire which destroyed the roof and roof of the garage.

Despite the showers, the city was in for its fourth straight day of 90 degree plus weather. And as a result of the rain, higher humidity readings made today even more uncomfortable though the high was predicted at 90, five degrees cooler than yesterday. Low temperature reading last night was 72 degrees with a much cooler and less humid 65 predicted for tonight. Humidity extremes ranged from a low of 36 per cent yesterday at 3 p.m. to a high of 76 per cent this morning at 4 a.m. === Page 35 of 38 # Bolt Causes Valley Fire, Power Failure (U.S. Weather, Tides D-3) Lightning, thunder and intermittent showers co-starred in an early morning spectacular over Southland skies early today disrupting power service and causing fires in many locations. Lightning bolts etched out crazy-quilt patterns and accompanying thunderbolts woke slumbering residents from the San Fernando Valley to Pomona and from Pasadena to Long Beach. From throughout the city came reports of interrupted power service and activated burglar alarm systems, all attributed to the storm. A bolt of lightning hit a palm tree near White Oak Avenue and Sherman Way in Van Nuys setting fire to the tree while another hit a power pole in the rear of the Van Nuys police station knocking out power there for a few minutes. ## HOUSE SET AFIRE A lightning-caused fire was blamed for damage to a house and garage at 653 Hagar St., San Fernando. Accompanying intermittent showers were held responsible for a chain of minor freeway accidents on the inbound San Bernardino Freeway on Pomona's Kellogg Hill, which were triggered when a garbage truck dumped part of its load and motorists swerved to avoid hitting the debris.

An immense "fireball" which streaked across Southland skies and attracted professional attention from as far away as New Mexico today was tentatively believed to have been a meteorite. Federal Aviation Agency observers also said the object could have been a satellite collapsing in orbit and burning up in the earth's atmosphere. Official switchboards here and in Orange County reported sighting by hundreds of witnesses about 9:45 p.m. Delta, TWA and Bonanza Airline pilots landing here also reported they saw the ball of fire over the Los Angeles area when they were in the Grand Canyon area. The sight was logged in air control towers in China Lake, Edwards Air Force Base, Palmdale and Albuquerque. The gleaming object, trailing fire, "circled" the skies for about 15 minutes, one witness reported. === Page 36 of 38 -Herald-Examiner Photo by BUD GRAY NATURE'S ELECTRICAL FIREWORKS LOOKS DOWN ON CAPTIVE ELECTRICITY Edison plant on Tustin Blvd. in Orange is silhouetted against mammoth lightning flash 08/08/2025 15:44 === Page 37 of 38 # BOLTS 'n' JOLTS # Lightning, Thunder, Rain, Hit Southland FIREBALL in the sky adds to the display: Page 6.

As we helped Moses in that day, so we shall help the human-friend we know now as Ted Owens, you call the Rain Maker. If it please him to think that...of course we make the rain for him, but what is the difference? So that you people of the earth will believe this message we send to you, and we do not expect you to believe it unless we show proof...listen carefully. From now on, in time ahead, we will lift the curtain of drought for a little, and let the thirsty earth have its moisture. We will give the precious rain where it is needed...for a time. Then, lest you think that it is a perchance, we will drop the curtain once more with our machines, and let the rays of the sun penetrate the bowels of the earth and dry up your rivers, your lakes, your plants...until you accept our human as our representative. After you accept him, we have much work for him to do, for we do not speak your language, nor do we know too much, as we should, about your inner workings. It is through this human that we can learn; and it is through us, that you can learn. Even now, we send the meaning of our thoughts to him, and his brain translates through pictures and feelings into your English. It is good. Beware lest you take too long to accept our human-friend, for then we must strike a hard blow at the country which spurns him...to punish your country as you would punish a child which persists in misbehaving.

They: Tonight we will try. Flash your light (flashlight) upward every hour as long as you can. Me: Can you locate me from signals from my brain? They: We can. Me: I'll also leave a light on so you can see. They: No. Turn it off so we will not be seen by others. This is important. Me: Where are you from? They: Some - Jupiter. Others, other places. Even from inside this earth. Goodbye, now. Me: Yes, goodbye. ---------- Note: I set up the scene; put the family upstairs, got the flashlight and blinked it for a long while, but no contact. However, during the previous three weeks many flying saucers had been sighted over Washington, D.C., and over nearby Virginia. The night of February 6, many were seen over Washington...and it was written up in the papers. Then...I thought no more about it, since proof was not forthcoming...until the UFO over the South Pole, while I was in Philadelphia, made my prediction come true in detail. There could no longer be any doubt at all, about my having communicated with them, as far as I am concerned. Lornie & Ruth can be reached for confirmation: Lornie & Ruth Owens c/o Shannon 505 S.

Goodbye now, friend. (Next time they "came in" like sounds was the evening of March 6, 1965.) They: Do not go away, far, Viet Nam. Your people will try to kill you. We need you alive. Listen carefully..there are others like us, against us, who could cause you harm. Be careful of your life, of your shell. It has taken us ages, in your time, to find a shell like you who can communicate with us. We do not want to lose you. But remember that you are, every moment, in great danger from "them" who use shells (people) bodies. They look like and seem like real people, but they are not. (I got the impression they mean that there are UFO entities which have somehow entered human bodies, and therefore, since they are enemies of these UFO entities, will try to do away with me.) Me: Can you end the war in Viet Nam and help my country, the United States, to become healthy and great again? They: We can and we will. But you must not go there! Instead go to Hong Kong or Japan as a tourist. Go by freighter ship. We can contact you on the ship. We will defeat your enemies for you in Viet Nam and bring peace. We will help your country. But your country must help you for you are our instrument. Does not your people approach certain fish, to communicate with fish? We do likewise. We go now to try to approach you. Be ready for us. Me: I will. (That same evening, later on, they "came in" again) They: Are you ready? 08/08/2025 16:08 === Page 6 of 9 Me: Yes. They: We have a plan. Please turn that machine off. (My transistor radio.) Me: I did. They: Can't get through tonight very good - very well. Do you have a car-machine? Me: Yes, but it will not work. It's broken. That is why I need money. They: We are going to take care of that...money. Do not worry about it. You will be richer than anyone in your country before long. We want to see you, talk to you. Can we come down? Me: Yes, to my back door. I'll let you in. They: Will you be alone? Me: Yes. I'll have my family stay upstairs. They: No harm will come to us? Me: No. Absolutely not. Lower your flying machine near my back door and step onto my back porch. Knock loudly on the door. I'll let you in and we can communicate. I am very pleased, and anxious to meet you. They: Yes. We have what you need to convince your crazy people...your government...that we exist, and can control your world. You can use it. It will be yours to keep. Me: Thank you. They: You need a car, so that you can go far away. We will try to get you one. Me: My child is sick. Also a girl, our friend, in a hospital (Brenda Sue Pennington.) Will you heal them? They: We will, indeed, heal them. Worry not. Listen carefully...no time is to be lost. Your people must pay attention to you and listen to you, else we must destroy most of the earth's peoples, to begin all over again. Me: You mean, what is happening now has happened before? They: Many times. 08/08/2025 16:08 === Page 7 of 9 Message to the earth people... from the Saucer Intelligences (SI's) through the Rain Maker, Van Owens... August 3, 1964 We are very happy that we are able to reach the ears of human beings, after trying for long, long spaces of time. This human who is talking for us, we have been teaching for a year in your time, and now he knows much... soon he will know much more. He can do much. You must listen to him carefully, and protect him, for if you lose him you lose your link with us, and it is not known how long it may be until we find another human who can receive our thoughts, and send intelligence back to us, in just his way. You do not appreciate the difficulties involved. It would be as if you were trying to teach your earth animals how to talk, and suddenly you found one who could actually converse with you... and through this one animal you had an opportunity to discover the secrets of the animal kingdom. Through us you have the opportunity to discover the secrets of space, of far away places, of advanced technology, but best of all... you have the opportunity of surviving, for as a race you are utterly doomed now, as you are living (this in their words.) Many civilizations before you have so doomed themselves and destroyed themselves, and we were helpless to give them assistance and advice and powerful aid. Now for the first time in long space ages we are able, though a human's senses, to come to the aid of a doomed civilization and help it survive. But we can only do so if you listen, and pay attention. We are causing severe drought, with our machines in your skies, so that we can teach you a basic lesson... which is that our intelligence is far superior to that of earth intelligence. We can control earth people because we can control what you call weather. Then, and not before, our earth human has been accepted by your government, and put to good use, then and only then will we release the drought conditions, and let rainfall come in abundance down onto your thirsty earth. 08/08/2025 16:08 === Page 8 of 9 terrible bomber crash in Vietnam (?) today, because this made us look very bad all over the world, which is bad enough anyway about the Viet Nam war. All those 250 lb. bombs being unloaded there, where the new U.S. Military Headquarters is being set up...and on top of our allies...that is very very bad. A real blow. And the way it was done, is certainly in the pattern of all the rest of this phenomena. Why, when the other bomber made eight passes at it, with all its guns blazing, why didn't it shoot it down, or set off the bombs in it? Then there was the wind...oh yes, the wind...like the rain that put out the fire in that attempt. The wind turned the plane around and took it right into target. I tell you, George, there is much more to this than meets the eye. Don't you agree? Remember the other two times I warned you that the U.S. would be struck blows, in a similar way...and then in quick order after each prediction, the U.S. Embassy was blown up...and then something airfield was set off when the bomber exploded there and blew up other planes and everything, incidentally. But there is something nice...because conditions have just recently been good to me here, and I have had a bit of a chance to get my UFO status at least a tiny bit out into the open...the stock market is already improving, as I told you it would a while back (last month, wasn't it?) Sure do wish this was a two-way communication. Wish CIA...oh, well, keep observing, George, and you will see some very strange things happen yet. PK Man (The Rain Maker) Ted Owens === Page 9 of 9 2 relate, of any value, to Congress? I can give really valuable information, and should be allowed to be there to do so. And the SI's are furious about it. This will undoubtedly be reflected in worse catastrophes just ahead of us. Remember - the primary purpose of the SI's is to establish a meeting of "minds" between themselves, and top U.S. leaders - and from that point on, using the U.S. as a friendly cooperative base of operations, they plan to straighten out world problems, bring about peace everywhere, and show us, from their higher intelligence and experience, how to keep the peace in effect after they are gone. The fact that the U.S. Govt. refuses to listen to them at this point, or help bring this about...of course makes them very angry...and brings disastrous catastrophes upon us. Of course, in order to bring about the above, the SI's first have to be met in a physical meeting...face to face...and myself, PK Man, is the U.S. Govt.'s only key to that meeting. The SI's do not intend for a minute to let the U.S. or any other country capture one of their craft and gain access to their mechanics of propulsion and power...to misuse as we have misused nuclear power, and no doubt will misuse it again in the future. That is why they are almost impossible to contact, let alone meet. Also they do not trust humans, and especially do not trust American military men...or American politicians. For remember, their values and morals are different than ours...they are strict, hard, and they are against war and killing and destruction. Can the same be said for military men and politicians? Of course not. And the same goes for scientists. The SI's do not like them, either. Well, enough. Luckily, the SI's do trust me, and like me. Why, I don't know. But I have submitted more than enough proof by now to you that they do communicate with me, and we with them. So....take it from there. PK Man Love, Dad P.S.

Sent from Lori Rodriguez in Beaverton, Oregon. Recorded by Lewis Barlow July 19, 2025 Majority written in 1965 and 1966 but were a couple of letters from 1970 and 1976. We received several different packages from Lori that contained Ted Owens letters to his children. As this was more of a general package of letters and covered several different dates, for organization purposes we will just call it general letters.

Open any mail I might get, forwarded, + send me anything important. Right now am trying to get 200 - 300 to buy a car + go up to New Jersey and sell my services as The Rainmaker to various towns + counties having a terrible drought. They are out of water and need... rainstorms. Ha! I figured I could get $5000 per town, or county, fee paid after their rain comes. However, since the area would probably become a disaster area, they might not pay me. The rain PK I worked so hard last November to sock the U.S. with -- is slow in going away to let heat + drought take its place. But I've set up heat + fire (red) PK, not only over the U.S., but the world, for this coming summer (July -- on.) So you should read about drought all over the place. Nature will use this to make the Govt. more reasonable. Remember I wrote Clark, CIA, + told him all phenomena of Moses' day would now occur to U.S. Govt.? Well, first case of cholera since 1911 just struck -- in Wash. D.C. And since I "hit" Viet Nam with PK -- planes are colliding, Marines are shooting each other by accident -- it's really something. Some day they'll learn. Write. Dad Congress Hotel Rm. 600 12th + Walnut Phila., Pa.

(UPI). -- A sea-spawned tornado ripped through South Carolina's rich "Grand Strand" resort area and caused an estimated $1 million damage to the posh playground. No serious injuries were reported. The twister knifed out of a squall line of thunderstorms, toppling a huge ferris wheel and severely damaging a restaurant and two motels. Lesser damage was reported at other resort areas north of Myrtle Beach. Communications and power were cut off by the storm. Heavy rains drenched the area and flooded streets and lowland areas. THUNDERSTORMS raked the area from Myrtle Beach northward to Cherry Grove Beach. Police and rescue squads rushed into the stricken area and reported only minor injuries to the throng of summer visitors and residents. Most of the minor injuries were caused by flying glass. Remember the ferris wheel? It got it. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. 08/08/2025 16:31 === Page 3 of 31 Friday Dear Lornie Thank you, honey, for the three cigars...but do not run yourself short of spending money, just for cigars for daddy, hear? Although I surely do appreciate the thought...and the smokes. Our letters are hanging up...I don't get yours for maybe a week after you send it...and I know for sure that you aren't getting mine correctly, on time. Something is funny, somewhere...and I don't mean with the Shannons. Mebbe the govt. t Beau is all right, just cut the corner of his eye. He is awfully sweet, and plays with me constantly. In fact, I can't hardly get him off my lap. He invents games...and teaches me how to play his games with him. The kid is a little wizard. And tough...good lord...if you think he was rugged when you knew him, you should know him now. Martha is afraid to try to put his pajamas on, or take him away from TV...cause he beats up on her. He charges her, and bites, hits, etc. Puts up a damn good scrap. Lots of spunk. Am writing this at work, without benefit of your letter at hand, so will try to remember the points you made. Your letter is at home, and ordinarily I answer it directly. Am doing any old odd job, looking for a way out of my present predicament...which is, stuck in old Philadelphia where few of my talents count for anything. Am sending my novels to N.Y. and trying to make a deal with a local businessman to start my own business, etc. Then...6 months, a year...of saving...and we'll buy a used car and go to some quiet, countryish place...and I will begin my System-teaching, and we will rent a house, or buy one. Rent one, I guess, on sober thought Am glad your school is beginning, and you do sound like you are having fun. If any earthquakes, fires, floods, typhoons, etc., occur, you'll know that Daddy is playing his little games. I am winding up now to swat the West Coast with a big jar of PK; also to make and steer more 'canes into Florida. Debbie was doing all right; she turned right, like I told her to - then stalled just off the Florida coast, and by the time she went into Florida she'd quieted down into a mere 60-70 mile an hour tropical storm, instead of a hurricane. Anyway, I hit Florida with her. Even if I didn't get a hit on Electro directly and in full force. incidentally...last year I wrote Dunn, Chief of the Hurricane Bureau at Miami...remember? And asked him to name Hurricanes after you and Martha this year. Well, he did...but as usual, your name got misspelled, and it is "Laurie" on the official Hurricane Charts. "Martha" is there, too. So - you have a hurricane named after you. I am working hard to make that many hurricanes for that area. I have gotten 28 typhoons so far in the Pacific. They ran clear through the alphabet, and are starting over with Typhoon Bess working now. Love and kisses, Dad 08/08/2025 16:31 === Page 4 of 31 Rick...added note. When UFO was seen by thousands, nearby in New Jersey...it made the front pages of the New Jersey papers. I sent you photos of clippings. But...not a word appeared in the Philadelphia papers. And this was IMPORTANT news! So here is what the U.S. Govt. is doing. Whenever a UFO incident happens, they restrict the news of it just to that little area where it happens...because they know the people will talk around, and if no news appeared then questions would be asked. So maybe 100 UFO's could be seen in the U.S., but it would not appear anywhere except in a few towns around where it happens. The whole US wouldn't know this. Controlled news. This goes against our Constitution. But then, many things our present government is doing...goes against our Constitution. I had wondered at your mentioning UFO sightings in California...because no mention of it had appeared on the East Coast. Now we know for sure why. So...if you ever see any mention of all of UFO phenomena, be sure and send me the clipping, okay? Incidentally, might interest you to know that I use the thermos you gave me in Washington every day...take my lunch to work, and your thermos is with it, holding coffee. I wish you hadn't left me. Young or not, I would like to train you in all these various techniques the Si's have taught me to use...my old list, that you copied, is nothing compared to my new list. Although, of course, every thing on the list you have works. But they have given me much much more. And I have made colored crayon pictures of many things that are important, but have to be explained verbally. For instance, if you saw my "Rainbow Door" picture...it would mean nothing, unless how it works is explained. Keep punching with your school work. Did you read where that M.I.T. graduate with two degrees painted squares on his face with fingernail polish yesterday then shot three atomic energy scientists with a shotgun? Then shot himself. And he was a scientist, too. Happened in New York, not far from the UFO sighting, last week. Evidently the three squares were the men he was going to shoot...and the small square on his forehead above the three squares, stood for himself. He was brilliant...name of Maresco. Had three kiddies. Pitiful. 08/08/2025 16:31 === Page 5 of 31 Wolcott Resident Argues The Case For UFO's To the Editor of The American: Via various of the newspaper items, I see that more recently there have been undeniable reports from scientists at atmospheric research centers of universities, that the sightings of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) are not purely imagination, nor simply "swamp gases," or "meteors," etc. In some cases, yes, but not the majority. So-called "flying saucers" more aptly "space ships" DO EXIST! Why is it so difficult for governments and people in general, to believe the possibility of intelligent forms of life (perhaps far superior to our own planet earth) existing elsewhere in this vast infinite universe? Certainly if our own present civilization is so well-advanced (enough to photograph planets and send men into orbit around the earth) then is it so difficult to believe that there may be perhaps a higher, more intelligent species of beings, somewhere in this universe, capable of these fantastic travels? Unfortunately, mankind has not yet learned, due to his own greed and ignorance, that the very atomic forces which he has so well harnessed for destructive weapons can be used much more intelligently for the betterment of mankind, without "poisoning" the very atmosphere and waters, as now. The earth is abundant and beautiful . . . and there is enough water, food, land, gold and gems for all living things, once man learns that these things are not to be taken for "personal possessions" . . . but to be utilized and enjoyed by ALL of God's created beings. Does any human being have the "right" to claim any land, nation, or body of water as "his," exclusively? Or any part of the world and universe? Now they are wondering and speculating who will land on the moon first, and place a stake of "ownership!" "Brotherhood" as exemplified and taught by many religious sects, is not yet truly the brotherhood by which mankind can truly be happy. When man gives up his desire for war and destruction, his greed for personal power and possessions, then and then only will there be the beginning of Peace on Earth, such as taught by the great Avatars throughout the history of our war-torn, and sorrow-ridden world. Unfortunately mankind's spiritual progress has not kept pace with the material aspects of his accomplishments . . . and here lies the sad story which fills the history books to the brim, of tales of bloodshed, greed and power. There is only ONE True Power . . . the Power of God . . . the Energy or Force which we so well know as The Almighty, Creator of Heaven, Earth and Seas! . . . and the "many mansions" of His infinite universe. Until mankind learns to live in peace, and learns to revere and recognize fully, the Supreme Being, mankind will be forced to suffer, by its own hand, via poverty, strife and the countless "ills" which befall nation after nation, which eventually brings it to its knees or complete destruction. It seems that only when people are beset by woe and great trouble do they remember that there is a "God" . . . somewhere . . . to turn to. (Unfortunately though, at these times, too often they turn to Him, only to "blame" Him, and not to pray). And so, as we look heavenward, we see so much evidence not just of His grandeur, but the infinite intelligence which lies behind it . . . and too, we see what we call "UFOs" which contain perhaps, beings who have progressed far beyond our own worldly attainments . . . beings who have progressed because they have kept pace in both spiritual and material realms . . . and not denied their creator. For man without God is simply a piece of clay. (REV.) IRENE G. KAVULA Wolcott 2 Cliff St. === Page 6 of 31 Sat. 5/21 Dear Lornie: Hi, honey, it was good to hear from you. How do you like my (and Si's) score at Cape K? Haven't missed bringing down a rocket in months there. That's because the Si's added some new PK weaponry...most devastatingly effective. This last Agena I got was said to fall into the Atlantic..but a commercial airplane pilot appeared on a TV program and said he and co-pilot were up in the air near the Agena...and it seemed to vanish into a peculiar yellow cloud. Figure that one out. One turtle just died...and last night the goldfish died...and our canary bird, which is a singing fool...has stopped singing. ???? Yes, read about the 16 year old girl, tortured to death. We are having one to two rapes a day here in Philadelphia...some of them on the torture side. Things are getting rough all over...would advise you to watch your step, especially with the coloreds getting ready to blow up in that area against whites. How about that cop shooting the colored husband who was driving his pregnant wife to the hospital? Don't worry about McNamara...the Si's are taking care of him in beautiful shape! He won't last much longer in his present position of power. Martha got her goodies...and you made me very happy by making her very happy. She and baby fought like tigers over the candy...I nearly died laughing. Baby would take one piece, then snatch another with the speed of lightning before Martha could stop him. And she couldn't get it away from him, either. You are definitely not getting my mail. You ask if I had seen the UFO show on NBC. Immediately after the show I wrote George, etc., that the U.S. Government would be severely punished by the Si's for that lousy show....and sent you your usual copy. Which obviously you haven't seen. By now the Si's have clobbered the U.S. Govt. in spades. The Si's, true to their word (see my ltrs.) have been inundating the East Coast with rain to break the drought. Steadily. Love and kisses, Dad === Page 7 of 31 Si's have: (as per their predictions through myself) 1964 through present May, 1967 Thrown off the magnetic equipment of the two scientific expeditions over the South Pole. Showed themselves over the two scientific expeditions, to get it into the paper, as they said they would do. Showed their craft, and their ray, at Waunaque, as they said they would. Made lightning hit things everywhere and get reported in the papers, as they said they would. Sent a huge "fireball" UFO over Philadelphia six days after they said they would, in my prediction. Saved Brenda Sue Pennington, who was given up for dead by her doctors (or they wouldn't have let me in). Produced an early hurricane (Alma) as they said they would. Destroyed, disabled, or ruined the mission of various forms of rockets and missiles going up at Cape Kennedy, as per their predictions. Produced disasters coast to coast, for a demonstration, per their predictions. Produced negative, destructive conditions around the White House, Johnson, and the U.S. Government. Made it rain in Phila., with me calling the shots. Made it rain all over the U.S., reversing the upper atmosphere conditions to do it, according to the N.Y. Times, to break the 6-year drought. Made it rain in India, to break the 3-year drought. Produced a blinding light to confuse the "eye" on Mariner 4. Produced a savage, hurricane-like storm in the Wash., D.C. Capitol. Warned CIA of North Vietnamese attack on carriers off Vietnam. Warned U.S. Govt. of Viet Cong attack with blowguns and poison darts, and poison. Caused a judge in Selma, Ala., to have a complete change of heart re negros and whites. Brought down the Russian spacecraft, Voshkod. Harassed the U.S. Air Force viciously, as it would an enemy...making the AF Blue Angels crash and collide; AF planes downed everywhere under all kinds of conditions; AF top brass dropped dead, etc. NASA...they did the exact same thing to Nasa as they did the AF. Made U.S. nuclear sub ram freighter, just days after they said they would. Demonstrated their control over our skies...by producing staggering airplane disasters. Demonstrated their control over our seas...by producing ship accidents, fires, attacks by freak waves, etc. Also our naval military...by producing one carrier accident after another after another after another. Same with subs. Produced earthquakes on predicted schedules. Produced lightning attacks at Cape Kennedy, as they said they would, even hitting lightning-proof pad. Put all top U.S. Govt. officials in the hospital with "executive flu" (which was not flu at all, according to the Washington D.C. medical examiners. They have never been able to discover what it was.) Harassed the Needles, Calif. military maneuvers; the NC/SC military maneuvers; and the U.S./Spain military maneuvers, to demonstrate what they can do to our military. Produced hurricanes as predicted, then guided them along predicted routes to target areas, already predicted. LORNIE AND RICK -08/08/2025 16:31 === Page 8 of 31 Page Two Demonstrated their control over the Stock Market, by allowing me to predict for them a drop...the Friday before the Market fell about 15-20 points the following Monday. Demonstrated their knowledge of secret activities in the world... by tipping off the U.S. Govt. of certain things which would occur, and which did. Demonstrated their complete control over weather, by ending years-long droughts, causing hurricanes, earthquakes, blizzards, etc., and predicted in advance (like everything else on these two sheets). Predicted Johnson't hospital stays, and surgery, in advance on three occasions (surgery on only two, "flu" on the other). Predicted an attack on or near the White House, and predicted it would be "symbolic". Warned the President by telegram of an oncoming disaster...the New York Blackout, which followed shortly. Demonstrated their control over "total peoples" by defeating the African rebels, who were killing children. Demonstrated their control over space shots and space activity... by predicting in advance what would happen, then making it happen. Demonstrated their communication ability with P K Man (Owens) by telling him when and/or where and/or why they would appear, before they actually did so, as predicted in advance. Demonstrated again their control over "total peoples" by helping Johnson win, then by defeating the Democrats at the polls in '66. Demonstrated their ability to read human minds...by warning in advance of an ex-flyer's plans to crash his plane into the White House. Demonstrated their power to heal (Mrs. Don White, Ft. Worth; Brenda Sue, Washington, D.C. - plus numerous others in Ft. Worth). And they have just produced an electrical and power blackout in New York, as per my request (from Jim Moseley's request). And just made lightning strike, per my request (as requested by Margulies, the parner-lawyer of this law firm) and the lightning struck the target area requested. === Page 9 of 31 Kids - read this book now! 444 Saddle Lane Grosse Pointe Woods Michigan 48236 April 20, 1967 Mr. Ted Owens 1114 Spruce No. 33 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Dear Mr. Owens I find the study of space and UFO's very fascinating. Upon watching the John Bandy Program of Saturday April 1st, I became intensely interested in you and the intelligence with which you communicate. I write to you now to get more detailed information on the subject, and to offer any assistance possible to you. First of all, let me tell you a little about myself. I am a boy of 15 attending Grosse Pointe High School, and have a 3.4 average in all subjects. I recently started a campaign with a friend to map out all UFO sightings, and attempt to find any set patterns as to their appearances. We detected four patterns, all of which are circular, which seem to have their centers of curvature in Canada and off the coast of eastern South America. Two centers are in Canada and two in South America. Both of these countries seem to have circular, moving areas of UFO sightings. We do not claim that these patterns are valid, but we plan to get more members and continue the study until definite patterns are found. 08/08/2025 16:31 === Page 10 of 31 Page 2 I believe that some alien form has been closely studying this planet for thousands of years, and maybe more. (I also believe that Christ was one of these aliens,) who had a mission to establish a code of laws and to unite our race into one by Christianity. Therefore, your claim of communication supports my belief, and I want to believe you. However, I would like to know how you can differentiate from ESP and the communications of other beings. How do you know you don't merely have ESP? As I said before, I am intensely curious about your contact with intelligence from another dimension. The following are questions which I hope will be answered thoroughly and accurately. I give you my word that I will not inform anyone of your answers unless you will permit me to. (If you are telling the truth, I think you may hold the key to the survival of this world.) Here are my questions: 1. The intelligence is from another dimension. Does this mean that they are from a place beyond our universe, or could it be a zone in our universe? Both. 2. Do our dimensions of depth, width, length, and time apply to this dimension, NO or is it completely opposite ours? Please describe dimension further if possible. 3. Can this intelligence change energy into matter and take any form? YES How is this possible? HOW DO I KNOW? 4. How can energy live, think, and take any form? 5. How does it travel? If they are from another === Page 11 of 31 Page 3 dimension, my guess is that their travel takes no time and is instantaneous. Is this true? Explain. 6. Please tell me exactly what their mission is. Is to set up a permanent base in the U.S.? Will they try and are they capable of correcting human conflicts and other weaknesses? 7. Could they have any interests of their own? Could they be after something? 8. Describe the mission, the intelligence, and the dimension further if possible. I would like to help you to carry out your mission in any way I could. Please tell me if there is anything I can do for you. If you will permit me, I would like to write you to give you the results on our study of UFO's, when it is completed. Please send me more of your predictions in your letter. I am very anxious to prove that you tell the truth. There is one important question I think you ought to ask yourself: "should the people know of your mission and of the intelligence? Thank you very much for information and your time. I will be looking forward for your answer. Sincerely yours, Leonard S. Buccellato My god! 15!!?? === Page 12 of 31 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN I recommend RICK OWENS to any prospective parent...because he is a fine boy. He is very creative...can draw excellent pictures; make paintings; make objects d'art with his hands that most people would never think of. He is a genius at making artistic objects. Rick also is very loyal. I travelled with him, and he not only did his part in making picnic lunches; removing tires from old wrecks to put on our car; feeding our dog and making her comfortable; scrounging up gas money by telling fortunes; pushing the car when it ran out of gas; but he always did more than his share of work...and we were very proud of him. He is a wonderful team-worker. We could always depend on him to come through with whatever the problem was that we were trying to solve...and he always did a brilliant job with his part of the problem. Rick is very kind, good-hearted, and generous. Many times he put covers over us when we were cold, sleeping out at nights. ; It was Rick who made Marthy Ann the happiest, by getting her food, and putting her to bed with him, when the rest of us were preoccupied with other things. Rick always put the happiness of the rest of our group ahead of his own...giving pieces of his candy or ice-cream to Lornie or Martha, if they wanted them, or to Marthy Ann. Rick is honest at heart, and truthful. Of course, he has childishly told lies...perhaps even swiped a few things...as all people do when they are growing up. But he is growing out of that stage, and of all the children I have seen in my life, Rick has been the most honest and truthful boy with his father. I would always trust him. Rick is very affectionate and lovable. He is warm, and outgoing. When a warm, loving hand is needed...his is the first to be extended. Of course, Rick has his faults...everyone has. He acts without thinking sometimes, too fast, and this tends to create errors. Perhaps there are some other little faults...but the big, most important things...make Rick a prince of a boy. He is to be strongly recommended. SIGNED: P K Man (Ted Owens) Father. === Page 13 of 31 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN I strongly recommend LORNIE OWENS to any prospective parent. First, LORNIE is a beautiful human female, and this, of course, has the highest value placed upon it by members of the human race...as witness beauty contests, etc. Lornie could easily win any beauty contest. Then, Lornie has a bright, magnetic personality. She sparkles. She is a great social asset, wherever she may be..in the home, at a party, at the beach, etc. She is always in great demand, socially. Lornie also has a great artistic genius...in painting pictures, writing stories, etc. She is imaginative and creative. Lornie has a good heart, fortunately...in spite of her beauty (this is usually not the case because beautiful girls learn to be superficial and get everything they want just by being beautiful.) Lornie thinks deeply about others, is concerned about others, works for others to help them, etc. As a matter of fact, many times when her own family group was in trouble, Lornie worked very hard in many ways to get them out of their troubles. Children like that are rare. Lornie is highly intelligent, and provides brilliant ideas for those around her. A lot of these ideas are, at times, on a rationalization basis... but they are brilliant. Lornie is affectionate and lovable, like a teddy bear, and she is outgoing with her warm love. Lornie is more honest and truthful than most girls her age. She has her small faults, as everybody has...but they are far outnumbered by her very good traits. Lornie Owens is a wonderful girl, and it is a surety that she will be a wonderful woman, in the years to come, and will make a fine wife and mother. SIGNED: Ted P K Man (Ted Owens) Father. === Page 14 of 31 Pg 1 SECRET INCANTATION Today and every day my autonomic nervous system will function perfectly, in perfect balance. Today and every day I move in a bright new world, which is the reflection of my innermost thoughts and beliefs. Today and every day I consciously and deliberately align myself, focus myself, with all of the powers of God and Nature. Nature always moves in right action, therefore my affairs today and every day will partake of right action. I wish no harm or sorrow to anybody, and all persons wish me well. My business is surrounded by right action. Universal Knowledge gives me fresh, vital ideas. I will meet nice people, make good contacts, because people will like me and like to do business with me. I am surrounded by a circle of protection. God, plus Universal Knowledge, guides me in all of my decisions, and draws to me those persons, places, and things that tend toward my fullest benefit. I will become a blessing to all whom I meet. I absolutely reject any belief in, or fear of, wrong action. I will receive wisdom, knowledge and understanding from God and Nature whenever I am asleep, as well as when I am awake. My body is a temple in which God dwells. All of His methods and activities are those of right action. I welcome every one of these activities, and throw myself wide open to them. I freely give my mind and soul and body to God and His work. I will not waste my money, but will use it wisely, to bring happiness to me and mine. Nothing destructive can enter or operate within my mind or body, for I am deliberately choosing the most constructive molds of thought. My spirit sings with happiness today and every day, for I am filled with the consciousness of life and the STRONG WILL TO LIVE. I am tuned in to every happy, healthy, successful person. Their thoughts travel over invisible paths to me, and my thoughts to them. I am tuned in to them, and whatever I need from their minds, or whatever ones of them I need to meet, Universal Knowledge will furnish it and bring it about. Today and every day I will draw large amounts of money to me from the inexhaustible supply of the Infinite...enough to meet any of my needs. Today and every day I draw STRENGTH from God and Nature and Universal Knowledge. === Page 15 of 31 Secret Incantation Pg 2 Page Two I wish to recognize and respond only to Truth, Goodness, and Beauty. Nothing negative can find a foothold in me. No doubt or fear can attach itself to me. I will have a positive attitude in every way, and will transmit this attitude and state of mind to my family and loved ones. No accidents or mistakes can occur, at any time, because I walk in a path of right action...both when I am thinking of it, and when I am not. I release myself and all of my affairs to the perfect working of God and Nature and Universal Knowledge...which turns these thoughts into action and results. This message, that I speak to my subconscious mind, I do not speak merely from myself...it is God in me, speaking Himself into my experience. This message has all-power to fulfill itself in my life and affairs, and is done with the ease of the Infinite. I release this message to the creative Law of Mind, fully confident that it is even now being fulfilled. IT SHALL COME TO PASS .......... === Page 16 of 31 Dear Lonnie & Harvey It was very good to hear from you. Today is really exciting because the one single odd thing that Nature told me on March 9 - that it would affect the magnetism of the North or South Pole, to prove I was its representative to the world - and that the papers would write it up - This one single thing that puzzled me, has come to pass. See clipping enclosed. Thus, in fact, "something" I call Nature has brought my prediction about in the exact manner to prove what PK Man is. Kids - my hair is standing up on end!! More later.

RAY HUNT, MANAGING EDITOR THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1966 Rick LORNIE ## Senatorial Scholarships: Backbacks and Kick in Pants Harrisburg comes the word that Gov. William Scranton has relieved Charles G. Simpson of the chairmanship of the State Council on Higher Education. Simpson has "lost his value" as spokesman, according to an announcement from the Governor's office. A value to the council, maybe. For the people of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, NO. Charles G. Simpson has been the outspoken critic of the senatorial scholarship racket--and the higher education institutions that condone it. To maintain their credentials as first-rate institutions of higher learning, the State's four largest universities are claiming an essential element of academic freedom, according to Simpson. But they lack is backbone, Simpson charges. Simpson has chided Pennsylvania, Penn State, Temple and Pittsburgh universities for their failure to stand up to State legislators on the matter of Senatorial Scholarships. Each of the 50 State senators annually are given scholarships to the four universities to do with as they please. They can and frequently do award the scholarships for every reason under the sun other than academic ability or financial need. Some legislators, Simpson charges, have sold the scholarships for $100 and others dole them out a semester at a time to make certain that they retain the "loyalty" of the beneficiaries. This newspaper supported Simpson's original attack on the scholarship system.

OWENS # Once Upon Time Camp Meant-Group of Tents By DICK WEST WASHINGTON (UPI).--Reams and reams have been written recently about the new intellectual movement known as "camp." Intellectual movements are, of course, only dimly understood. Particularly by intellectuals. Therefore, the explanations of what camp is have tended to be rather murky. SOME EXPERTS say camp means that something "is so bad it is good." That much I can follow. Thereafter it gets complicated. There are, for instance, degrees of camp--"high camp," "low camp," "middle camp," "pure camp," "classic camp" and so on. Tiffany lamps, feather boas and the movie "King Kong" are regarded as "classic camp." "Pure camp" occurs accidentally. That is, the original failure that caused it to become camp was purely unintentional. THE NEW television series "Batman" is said to be "instant camp." It is supposedly bad because the producers planned it that way. And this is where I become un-camped. I agree that the "Batman" producers have succeeded in turning out a pretty dismal show, but I am unable to recognize wherein the badness reaches the point of goodness.

By JACK MAHON Journal-American Staff Writer N.Y. 1/12/66 PAPER What was the strange flying object that hovered over the Wanaque Reservoir in Northern New Jersey all through the night, baffling police and terrorizing thousands of residents in neighboring townships? The UFO--which is all anyone could call it -- was still unidentified at dawn today. The police of Wanaque, Wyckoff, Pompton Lakes, Riverdale, Ringwood and Paterson all witnessed the strange, bright light, which resembled a disc, as it dipped and rose over the 15-mile-long reservoir from 7:30 p.m. yesterday until early this morning. HEARD OF IT They didn't know what to call it. Officials at Stewart Air Force Base, Newburgh, N. Y., and McGuire Air Base, Wrightstown, N. J., said they'd heard of the UFO--but acted as if they wished they hadn't. Both bases clamped a tight lid of silence on the subject and denied they had sent planes to investigate the phenomena. A spokesman at the Air Phenomena Branch, Wright Patterson Field, Dayton, Ohio, which processes all UFO sightings, said early today the Wanaque UFO had not been reported to his office. FIRST SIGHTING Ptl. George Dykman, of the Wanaque Reservoir police, first spotted the weird disc about 200 yards from the police station. "It was very bright," Ptl. Dykman said, "about two feet in diameter and, as it dipped over the dam, a round light about nine feet in diameter was reflected in the water..." GOES, RETURNS Ptl. Charles Theodora said the disc disappeared at 8:30 p.m., but returned about 2:20 a.m. It was motionless for about an hour then moved back and forth several times. "It raced about six miles up and down the dam at supersonic speed," said the officer. "At one point it flashed a ray of light on the ice. Ptl. Al Campana and I drove up to investigate. We found a hole in the ice about 40 to 50 feet in diameter--there is no explaining it. The rest of the dam is covered solid." Jack Burchill, an aerospace student at N.Y. Institute of Technology, Westbury, L.I., and Richard Scott, Paterson, a student at Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, gave this analysis: "It doesn't twinkle so it is not a star. It's too bright to be a planet or a celestial body. It gives off its own light. It can't be a helicopter, for it is soundless and appears to move at better than 1000 miles per hour." 'DON'T KNOW' Wanaque Mayor Harry T. Wolfe, Civil Defense Director Bentley Spencer, and Howard Ball, suburban editor of the Paterson Evening News, also spotted the UFO. Mr. Ball said: "I was driving up a hill. I thought it was the planet Venus. Then it looked like an airplane--but it was too low. I don't know what it is--or was." Neither does anyone else... === Page 22 of 31 UFO Sighted at Wanaque 1/12/66 NEWARK (N.J.) EVE. NEWS. 'Flying Saucer' Casts Spotlight on Ramapo Area By CECILIA KING Staff Correspondent. WANAQUE -- An unidentified flying object -- "very white, very bright and much bigger than a star" -- hovered silently over this astounded Ramapo countryside for hours last night. Hundreds of eye-witnesses in a 20-mile periphery testified to seeing a flying saucer, first in Oakland, later over the Wanaque Reservoir where it lingered longest, then above Lakeland Regional High School, and finally over the Houdaille sandpit in Haskell. From there it appeared to move southeast toward Pines Lake in Wayne and suddenly disappear. "The phenomenon was terribly strange," Mayor Harry T. Wolfe said. Having been alerted by local police that a UFO was circling over Raymond Dam at the Wanaque headworks, Wolfe drove there to see for himself. With him were Councilmen Arthur Barton and Warren Hagstrom, and the mayor's 14-year-old son, Billy. BILLY SPOTTED the unidentified object at once. Flying low it glided "oddly" above the state's largest water storage basin "like a huge star," he said. "But it didn't flicker. It was just a continuous light that changed from white to red to green and back to white." The older observers estimated "the oval" was between two and nine feet in diameter. First word of the terrestrial visitor reached the North Jersey police radio station in Pompton Lakes at 6:30 p.m. After some 30 telephone calls from excited residents and motorists, the radio monitor contacted Wanaque Patrolman Joseph Cisco. "People in Oakland, Ringwood, Paterson, Totowa, Wayne and Butler claim there's a flying saucer over the Wanaque," he was informed. Cisco radioed reservoir Patrolman George Dykman and even as Dykman was receiving the message two excited teen-agers came running. "Look, look," they pointed excitedly. DYKMAN GAPED along with Michael Sloat, 16, and Peter Melegrac, 15, and a few seconds later they were joined by Civil Defense Director Bentley Spencer and CD member Richard Vrooman. "What the heck is it?" exclaimed Dykman. "Never saw anything like it in my life." Spencer proceeded to the top of 1,500-foot-long Raymond Dam with reservoir employe Fred Steines. From that vantage point he reported later that he saw "a bolt of light shoot down, as if attracted to the water." He said it looked "like a beam emitted from a porthole." In the meantime Reservoir Police Lt. George Destito stood guard at the Wanaque entrance gates turning away swarms of pedestrians and scores of cars converging to (Continued Page 9, Column 3) 'Saucer' (Continued From First Page) the scene from north and south in Ringwood Avenue. The "saucer" hovered for more than two hours over the Raymond Dam area before soaring out of sight. It reappeared over Lakeland Regional High School in the Midvale section of the borough. A bevy of photographers and reporters were on the spot, but before any pictures could be taken the mystery object vanished. THE REPORTEDLY "last good view" was had in Highland Avenue, Haskell where volunteer firemen were burning Christmas trees in the Houdaille sandpit. Police headquarters continued receiving telephone calls however, all in the same vein of petrified wonder: "I saw something weird -- what is it?" Shortly after midnight word came from officials at Stewart Airforce Base in Newburg, N.Y. saying an Air Force helicopter with a powerful beacon had been on a mission over Wanaque about the time the mysterious object was cited. But, at 6:15 this morning, Major Donald Sherman, Stewart Air Force Base spokesman, denied that a helicopter, or any aircraft had been on a mission over Wanaque. Even the helicopter theory, however, failed to dissuade those who claimed they "actually saw the flying saucer." In Butler, as the midnight shift was coming to work at the American Hard Rubber Co., Leonard Tintle of Brown Avenue summed up the general feeling. FRONT PAGE "I BELIEVE my eyes against anybody's word," he said. "Like 18 years ago," he recounted, "when Clayton Brown (now mayor of Butler) and I were pallbearers for Philip Marion. We were in Rockaway Valley Cemetery -- we saw something -- hoverin' a mile up in the air -- backwards and forwards -- then it just disappeared -- " Tintle declared, "the Air Force knows darn well there's something to it. They're not letting on, that's all, because they don't want people to get frantic." "Like the time Orson Wells scared heck out of us with his 'Invasion from Mars' on the radio." Oddly enough, two hours and 15 minutes after Tintle's comments, when the UFO incident was being discussed in the past tense, Wanaque Patrolmen Joseph Cisco and David Sisco hurried headquarters the "thing" had been seen again in the skies. This time it was over Wyckoff. Five minutes later, Cisco and Sisco were taking turns peering through binoculars at the UFO. "It's over the reservoir," they asserted. === Page 23 of 31 COPY XEROX COPY XEROX (FRONT PAGE) ATLANTIC CITY PRESS 1/12/65 # 100s See 'Saucer' At N.J. Reservoir WANAQUE, N. J. (AP) -- An unidentified flying object, described as a brilliant disc of light, hovered over the Wanaque Reservoir for more than one hour Tuesday night, and then disappeared from view, police said. "It was real. I saw it and so did the mayor and the civil defense director and hundreds of other people," said George Dykman, 38, a patrolman on the Wanaque Reservoir Police Department. The officer said the weird light was first spotted earlier in Oakland, then in Pompton Lakes and then over the Raymond Dam at the reservoir--about 200 yards from the police station. "It was very bright, like a star," said Dykman. "From where we stood; it looked like it was about two feet in diameter and it was in the shape of a disc. "It moved in over the dam in a circular motion and then stopped and hovered over the reservoir. "It was too low to be an airplane. "As it dipped down over the reservoir, we saw a round light reflected in the water about nine feet in diameter." Dykman said he spotted the strange object about 7:30 p.m. after receiving a telephone call from the Passaic County Police radio network. About one hour later, he said, it moved away from the dam and paused briefly over Lakeland High School. "Now it's gone," he said late Tuesday night. "We have men searching, but whatever it was, thank God it's gone." In addition to Dykman, several other police officers saw the strange object. So did Wanaque Mayor Harry T. Wolfe and Civil Defense Director Bentley Spencer. Howard Ball, night suburban editor for the Evening News of Paterson, spotted the object in Wayne on Hamburg Turnpike while driving to work. He said he saw the light when he reached the crest of a hill and thought it was the planet Venus. "Then it took a lateral movement toward the West. I knew it wasn't Venus. I thought it might have been an airplane, but the light was too brilliant for that." Police departments throughout the Bergen-Passaic County area reported being flooded with telephone calls from alarmed residents. Officials at McGuire Air Force Base in Wrightstown said they were as mystified as everyone else over the strange object. === Page 24 of 31 Y NEWS THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1966 31 ghan adlyn Has Hopes he's Found Home VIVACIOUS NEWCOMER to the legitimate theater is Madlyn Rhue, who will make her first Broadway try in the new Gwen Davis comedy "The Best Laid Plans," which premieres at the Walnut, Tuesday. "I've already gotten one fringe benefit from my stage career," she said. "I have a home in California, but I was having a terribly difficult time finding an apartment in New York. Our director Paul Bogart had been separated from his wife; but they reconciled. He moved back home turning over his vacated apartment to me. Now everybody's happy." Miss Rhue's costar in "Plans" will be British actor Edward Woodward. Incidentally, it's also a first Broadway attempt for Bogart. "I've been waiting a long time for a good Broadway part," Madlyn said during a rehearsal break. "I'm positive that this is it. At least, I was positive enough to turn down some well paying TV offers just to join with this very funny show." Her first Broadway try notwithstanding, Madlyn is no novice in the acting department. She has an impressive list of some 150 TV show credits "which run the gamut" and a dozen pictures including "Operation Petticoat," "Ladies Man," "A Majority of One," etc. But she is proudest of the critical notices she received as Gittel Mosca in "Two for the Seesaw," at the Civic Playhouse, in L.A. She is also proud of a collection of some 300 hats, most of which have been left in California. "I will only be able to bring 50 of them to Philadelphia with me," the actress lamented.

That was an interesting dream, re Johnson...and my fingers. The Si's could be talking to you. I know definitely they work on us while we sleep. Martha woke up one night and saw a tiny UFO hovering over my head, while I slept...it was about the size of a quarter, and moved slowly around. She watched it for quite a while. I know she wasn't dreaming, because I woke up about 4 one morning and watched a UFO the size of a dinner plate moving around near the ceiling, slowly...with the most beautiful, gorgeous colors imaginable whirling around inside it. I was wide awake while watching it. I told you the Si's were 3-dimension, Rick...but that was a slip on my part. After writing you, (without thinking)..you asked if they were...I started thinking what 3-dimensional was...I meant, when writing to you, they were real...no, they are not 3-dimension in our apartment. On some craft they are. You have to realize, Rick...there are different shapes and forms of UFO creatures. Solid, and non-solid; human, and non-human. They can take different shapes and forms. But what they ACTUALLY are...is pure intelligence of a high form not otherwise found on this earth. They do not come from another planet, high in the sky...but from another dimension. When I asked them how it is they can give me intelligence, and I know it is from them, and write George Clark...they explained that, if I talked through an electronic remote control through somebody else's radio in another apartment (you can buy these gadgets) - the radio in the other people's apartment does not know where the voice is coming from, or how it is being done. If you want to go out for track, go ahead. Much rather see you put your concentration and energy in on mastering basketball, at school. Way to do it is get a basketball and practice dribbling high and low, easy and hard, all the time in your spare time. Practically live with a basketball. Practice shooting until you are a dead-eye Dick. Practice lay-ups going under from the right; also going under from the left, putting the ball up left-handed. Practice one-handed shots until you are blue in the face, with both hands. AND WATCH THE PRO TEAMS ON TV!! In your spare time, once in a while, shoot pool...great for your reflexes and timing. Am sending you your own personal pool cue...the best...with a special case to keep it in. Plus a fine book by the World's Champion, Willie Mosconi. Stick to one game only...50 point straight. It has everything, and luck isn't in it...just skill. 8-ball is for gamblers, and is pure slop. So is rotation. Stick to 50-point, the champions' game. You will be a champion, if you do. Also see if you can talk the Bentley's into getting you a set of drums, for you'll be a great drummer...not to go into as a pro later...but to help you pay your way through high school and college. And it is great fun, as you know. Also, try to take piano lessons if you can. Tedious now, but loads of fun === Page 29 of 31 joy when you grow up, later. It is something that is worth more than money, going through life, to be able to sit down at a piano and play jazz and blues the way you want to. You can't mix classical...so would advise you to learn jazz and blues and modern piano. If you do what I advise...you'll never go wrong, Rick. At the same time, try to be a good student. Learn when you are in School, or at home studying on lessons...to concentrate on just that. Then when you put your books down to practice basketball...concentrate on just that. Then when you play pool...concentrate on just that. Learn to turn it on and off, like a light switch. You have genius in you, Rick...but all genius carries a price tag. It has to be developed, and used, correctly. And when the power is there...use it well, and wisely. This is why Nature very seldomly gives genius and power to a youngster, because the wisdom to use it is not there yet.

Some $50,000 worth of men's furnishings were destroyed. Smoke was seen at the Hamilton Men's Shop, 3630 Germantown ave. by Patrolman Robert Magilton and he turned in the alarm at 5:20 P.M. Battalion Chief Edward McGonigle said lightning had struck a wooden utility a half block away during the short, but intense rainstorm, and was probably responsible for the store fire. Owners of the shop are Frank and Norman Axe. The manager is Jerry Wundohl, of 7023 Calvert st., who told police that there was an inventory of $75,000 in goods in the shop. He gave the damage estimate. A power failure due to the fire stopped oxygen pumps in fish tanks at the Arcade Pet Shop, 3627 N. Broad st., killing fish worth $150. Drifting smoke sickened and upset most of the animals in the shop, pet shop manager Harry Lewis, of 3966 Elser st., told police. Firemen fought the blaze for two hours.

Hundreds were stranded at resorts on the New South Wales southern tablelands and Blue Mountains by stalled rail and road traffic. # Hit Area, Ease Crisis July 19 Continued From First Page from the Atlantic Ocean was pushing upriver. The commission set the desirable flow for the emergency at 1200 cubic feet per second, as measured at the Montague, N. J., gauge across the Delaware from Milford, Pa. Despite the release of the water from the reservoirs, the river had been decreasing almost daily for the last week. "The river had been falling off gradually for one reason--lack of rain in the basin area," Fish said. Here are the average flows measured at Montague beginning last Monday. Monday, 1030 cubic feet per second; Tuesday, 1070; Wednesday, 1030; Thursday, 1030; Friday, 997; Saturday, 980. Fish said that Sunday's flow was averaging approximately 1000, although this was before the full impact of the weekend rains had been felt. A long-range forecast by the U. S. Weather Bureau also brought hope that the relief would be more than temporary. The prediction was that between 4 and 5½ inches of rain will fall in the river basin area of Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey between the middle of July and mid-August. The thunderstorms over Saturday and early Sunday were scattered throughout the upper basin area, with an average of .89 inches falling. RAINFALL IS SPOTY Fish reported that the rain measured .50 inch at New York City's Pepacton reservoir, and .91 inch at New York's Neversink reservoir. On the other hand, the measurement at Lake Wallenpaupak was only .13 inch, Fish said. Lake Wallenpaupak serves as reservoir for the Pennsylvania Power & Light Co., one of two utilities which have been ordered to release water into the Delaware. The other utility is the Orange and Rockland Utilities, Inc., with a reservoir system on the Mongaup River in Sullivan county, N.Y. DAILY FLOW FIGURES Under the commission's orders, New York is to release 266 million gallons a day from its two reservoirs. The flow from Wallenpaupak set at 200 million gallons daily, and 66 million gallons are to be released from the Mongaup system. Speaking of the thunderstorms, Fish said. "This is some slight improvement. We haven't had anything like this in weeks and weeks here." The "bad" weather which was such good news, canceled a helicopter trip that New Jersey's Gov. Richard J. Hughes had planned. Hughes, who is chairman of the Delaware River Basin Commission, had planned to fly aloft with New Jersey Conservation Commissioner Robert A. Roe to tour North Jersey reservoirs. === Page 31 of 31 The Evening Bulletin DR. CA ESTABLISHED 1847 William L.

Owens # How Vespasian Built HIS Stadium By B. A. BERGMAN I was in Rome recently. A waiter in a cafe near the Colosseum told me about the problems besetting the Emperor Vespasian when he decided to build the world's greatest stadium. He made everything crystal clear, as he explained how Vespasian disposed of all his critics and built his stadium as he wanted it and where he wanted it. You see, Vespasian didn't have an Open Mind. On the other hand, Mayor Tate some time ago confessed that he had an Open Mind about certain aspects of our Stadium design, that started all the foolishness. No mayor should have an Open Mind. That's worse than no mind at all. As a result of the Mayor's Open Mind the Stadium isn't much further along than it was in 1953. Except that we now are going to have still another architect to add to our stable of architects. ## Nero Gets the Nod Here's how Vespasian handled his Stadium, as explained to me by my Roman waiter: Romans, who didn't like Nero because of his lousy fiddling at inopportune times, creamed because Vespasian elected a site near the great statue of Nero for his stadium. "It goes next to Nero," said Vespasian. **The Colosseum in Rome** Merchants objected to the site because it was too far away from the fashionable shops. They wanted the stadium as a come-on for American tourists, so they could take pictures--out of focus--of the Stadium and then buy dresses and neckties at prices much higher than Italian imports would cost back home. Gladiators insisted that 40,000 seats were sufficient. Chariot racers and the soldiers who threw Christians to the lions demanded 60,000 seats plus 15,000 retractable chairs for special killings. No, said Vespasian. Fifty-thousand capacity and no retractable seats. They'd get in the way of the lions. The chariot racers and gladiators wanted a circular stadium. The lions need more room, the Christian killers pointed out, as they asked for a rectangular stadium. Postcard hawkers said nobody would buy pictures of a rectangular stadium. Rectangular buildings are a dime a dozen. Look at Penn Center, if you can. Vespasian shrugged and just said: "It'll be circular." As for a domed stadium for which there was an insistent demand, Vespasian said there'll be no dome. "I'll put up awnings for the VIPs. Fresh air, sunshine and rain are excellent for the people." So Vespasian, who had no Open Mind, ignored all the architects, all the special pleaders and all the pressure groups and built his stadium his way. Why, he even squelched a movement to name the Stadium for himself or for his son, Emperor Titus, who finished the job after good Vespasian died. And a campaign to name it after Paul D'Ortona died aborning. "My stadium is colossal, so we will just call it the Colosseum," the Emperor decreed. A man of few words. ## We Need Vespasian Now Mayor Tate with his Open Mind wouldn't make a very good Roman Emperor. On the other hand somebody like Vespasian might get our Stadium out of the discussion stage, if it isn't too late. I was talking to the chairman of still another Stadium committee which hasn't been appointed yet. He said he was going to propose that the easiest way to solve our Stadium foolishness would be to buy the Colosseum and move it to South Philadelphia. "Then," he said emphatically, "We'd have the greatest stadium in the world. After all it's been just that for nearly 2,000 years." And, at least, it's already built. 08/08/2025 16:54 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Johnson's shindig, which we did Saturday. === Page 3 of 11 Kids - thought you'd like this as a souvenir of the beginning of the exciting PK Man work. You were there!! TO: STATE DEPT. FROM THE BEGINNING... (written Before Sin's) October 19, 1964 Gentlemen: I strongly urge you to read this incredible report, because the facts in the report cannot be challenged for validity. I have actual witnesses, and written predictions of these happenings, which are of interest to you, were sent to Government agencies before the actual events took place. For the first time in the history of our world, PK (psychokinetic power - mind power) has been used under absolute control, with fantastic success, to affect government military operations. For the first time, a definite control over ESP (extra sensory perception) has been demonstrably exercised, and proven. Briefly, five geographical areas of the United States were "attacked" with PK (thought force) under definite control, and these five areas were, in each case from one to three weeks later, declared officially a disaster area. In four of the five cases U. S. Government military operations were the target of the destructive PK. Purpose of the PK attacks - to convince the U. S. Government, by actual demonstration, of the reality and existence of this new form of power, so that the U. S. Government would then accept the fact officially and allow PK to be used for, and no longer against, the U.S. I shall stick to documented fact as much as possible. If I should digress, or get part of the material in wrong order...it is because I am not a scientist, writing a scientific report. Before going into the actual Report - allow me to repeat a fact. The U. S. Government has, within its hands, at this time, a weapon and a tool available to no other country in the world. A weapon and a tool which will open up an entirely new field of science, in its application and study. A weapon and a tool which can spell ruin to Communist activity and progress. IF, that is, the Government avails itself of the tool and weapon. REPORT ON "PK MAN" My name is H. T. Owens. I am married, and have three children. My wife's name is Martha, and my teen-age children are Harvey and Lorrie, ages 14 and 15, respectively. (The youngest is Beau, only 2 years, and of course he takes no part in any of this activity.) In August, 1963, it all began. We lived in Phoenix, Arizona, and rented a house from Frank Boggio. It was terribly hot, so my son Harvey and I decided to try to make it rain and storm (my grandfather, John Owens, had shown me how, when I was a child, in Bedford, Indiana. But only once in my life had I attempted "weather control" - when working for Lee Construction Company in Houston, Texas, in 1947. At that time, with three witnesses present, I made lightning strike close by our office on the ship channel, on a clear, sunshiny day.) So August 15, 1963, Harvey and I began our rain-making. On Aug. 18, Phoenix had perhaps one of the worst rain storms in its history. Encouraged, my boy and I...and my daughter joined me for a while... decided, in order to prove it no accident, to prepare a series of storms, 08/02/2025 15:45 === Page 4 of 11 10/19/64 p2 (2) without cease, for that area. I wrote to the local newspapers to that effect, signing my letters "Rainmaker." Something told me I should have something on record. Then followed, within days of each other, eight successive storms... so devastating that the area was officially declared a disaster area. We had to move, then, to Los Angeles, and I read in the LA papers that Los Angeles was suffering from drought and needed rain desperately. So Harvey and I decided to furnish the needed rainstorm. I wrote to both the Los Angeles papers to that effect, on March 12, 1963. And we went to work. March 17 Los Angeles had a terrible windstorm which blew down trees, signs, houses, etc., and started roaring fires. But no rain. We kept on working. March 23 we brought in the rain. The LA Times paper headlined "Rain Plays Havoc." They got their needed rain. While in Los Angeles, during this period of time, I gave considerable thought to the possibilities of what we had done and what we had discovered, and wrote letters to the State Department in Washington, offering to put our abilities at the use of the U. S. Government (weather control being quite a useful tool, both in war and peace.) But no answer. So I decided to force an answer, if possible. I wrote to the State Department and announced that I would "attack" the space center at Cape Kennedy in Florida with PK...and that I would attack Operation Desert Strike, which was to take place at a later date in the Needles, California, area. Shortly thereafter a Ranger VI rocket failed at the Cape; and the Operation Desert Strike turned out to be a deadly, murderous comedy of errors. Also during this time I informed my ex-wife, Pat Shannon (who lives with her husband, Jim Shannon, in Inglewood, California) of my tremendous discovery. I discussed it with my brilliant landlord, Apparicio Ranghel. (Mr. Ranghel can now be reached through the Colombian Consulate in Washington, D.C.) My family left Los Angeles, and proceeded to Las Vegas. We decided to give Las Vegas a storm. In two days they had it. June 8, 1963, the newspaper headlines read "Hurricane Force Winds Lash Vegas." (When they used that word "hurricane" I had no inkling of what was to come later on.) While there, we needed money, but had only $25...so I gambled for three days at the craptables, experimenting with the use of PK. I found that it worked, but slowly, and percentage ate my small amount of money away before the PK could build. While in Las Vegas, I took my son and daughter to the office of the Las Vegas newspaper to see the Editor...and I typed out my work with PK, what we had done, etc., for the Editor, and explained it to him verbally, hoping that perhaps there might be a way of getting the attention of the U. S. Government. I suppose the Editor still has the typed information gathering cobwebs in his file, because nothing came of it. We then drove to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and there I began my work in dead earnest. I wrote to the Space Agency at Cape Kennedy the last week in July; also the State Department; and several other places - === Page 5 of 11 (3). 10/19/64 p3 that in the months ahead I would have my own private "war" with Cape Kennedy and its space work. That I would cause lightning to strike it; would cause human error; fires to start; magnetic disturbances; breakdowns in space equipment; and that I would bring hurricanes into the area. As I have said, this was the last week in July, 1964, and I described my plans in detail, using a map, to Eric Bremmer, a man of German nationality whom I met there. He was a waiter at the Bowery, and was instrumental in my getting a booking there at the Bowery. (Eric is blond, blue eyed, has a wrestler's build (we exchanged Judo knowledge) is covered with tattoos, and travels with his "wife" who lives in Columbia, South Carolina. He had been arrested before on the East Coast for armed robbery; also arrested in Florida for running guns to Cuban rebels...he told me.) Bremmer is not his real name. My family, of course, knew what I was doing, in detail, and my son was working with me on some of my projects with PK. My first big result came on Aug. 19, when lightning struck the Titan II rocket at the Cape, on its "lightning-proof" pad. We had been working for days specifically for lightning strikes. I wrote to the Cape and told them I had caused this, and to look out for havoc and confusion at the space center which would follow in the weeks to come. Hurricane Cleo formed, and I guided it, with my control methods, straight onto my target - the Cape. Now, it is interesting that, before Cleo even reached Miami, I wired to the Cape, offering to stop (divert) Cleo from hitting it, if they would answer and request it. They did not, so I let it strike. A two dollar wire from them would have sent Cleo off to the right into the Atlantic, and saved several hundred millions in damages.) It is also interesting that, as an experiment, when Cleo was officially pronounced "dead" in the papers - I brought her back to roaring life with PK. I did the same thing with Dora, later. Then Titan III was sent up at the Cape, and I brought it down with PK, splashing into the Atlantic. Then newspapers publicized "OGO" - the monster satellite that would be sent up from the Cape. I wrote the Cape again, Aug. 30, warning them. They disregarded the warning, and went ahead. My PK ruined OGO. Meanwhile Hurricane Dora had formed. (My PK method includes the knowledge of how to form hurricanes, as well as how to direct them.) I worked hard to make Dora turn left, because she had been formed aimed in the wrong direction. She did turn, and obeyed, and struck not far from the Cape. Close enough to bother the space center. (While I was giving all of my attention to Dora, Hurricane Ethyl got away from my control and went straight north. I learned a lesson from this.) Would like to point out that, during all this chaos at Cape Kennedy, as I had predicted, missile centers in California were having success with their shots...and this has applied during my months of war with the Cape. Mind you, lightning had struck their Titan II; Titan III came down; OGO had been ruined; and they had had two hurricanes track across them... and still they didn't believe me! All within three weeks time! 08/02/2025 15:49 === Page 6 of 11 (4) STATE DEPT. 10/19/64 10/19/64 p4 On Sept. 3 I again wrote to the Cape, outlining what I had accomplished, and what they yet had to expect. I told them there would be other hurricanes to follow. Then in the papers I read about troop exercises that would take place in North and South Carolina. So on Sept. 5 I wrote the State Department (I have my copies of these letters) that I would use my PK against these military exercises. Result: The area was declared a disaster area, during the exercises, from storms and floods.) And, of course, the Cape Kennedy area was declared a disaster area, from Cleo and Dora. On Sept. 5 I again wrote Cape Kennedy. No answer. Hurricane Gladys formed, and I brought her in on a straight line at the Cape..........and for the first time, I erred. Secure in the belief that she would hit the target, I went to bed. Next morning I discovered that while I'd slept she had veered away at the last possible moment, up the coast. I learned a lesson from that. Then I read of an atomic test to take place in a salt dome in Mississippi. So I hit the site with PK. That was Sept. 17. They haven't been able to set it off yet, and I should not like to be near there when they do. Then I read of NATO ship exercises and sub exercises..........and sent PK at it, to cause confusion and accidents. But evidently I accomplished nothing. At least, nothing was published on it. So I do not know. At this point, irked with the slowness of the U. S. Government, I wrote to President Johnson, Edgar Hoover, the National Security Council, and the State Department..........that I would extend the PK field in the Florida area to cover the entire U.S. area (only military operations) and would make a "Cape Kennedy" disaster area out of the California coast. (Although this takes a bit of time..........it is not done overnight.) I went to work. Three days later came the disastrous fires on the California coast. It was soon declared a disaster area, officially. (I also worked on an earthquake there, but it has not yet developed. It will, of course. Looking at my percentage of success, would you bet against it?) They got up a Minuteman II missile at the Cape at this point..........which I then hit with PK..........and for some reason the PK failed. (They also got a big Saturn up and operational, and I had special PK on it..........do not understand why I failed on it. But I had a couple of failures.) On the 29th a Minuteman I missile was shot up from the Cape. I destroyed it. Then an Imp satellite was sent up. I hit it with PK, and it failed. Then Hurricane Hilda formed. I was, at the time, preoccupied with pressing personal matters, and neglected Hilda during her important opening moves. Seeing that she was going too far West to make my Cape target, I guided her onto the new space activity at Michoud, Mississippi. 43 miles from New Orleans, also my Betsy target (NASA-Saturns) 08/02/2025 15:49 === Page 7 of 11 (5) 10/19/64 p5 Then my family read an article in the newspapers that brought about hysterical laughter. It was an article from Moscow, Russia, saying that the U. S. Government was controlling hurricanes and running them onto their communist countries (Cuba). Well, at least Russia was more discerning than my own U.S. But they had the wrong guilty party. After all, it would be ridiculous for the U.S. to take hurricanes back and forth over their most important space center, true? (Cleo, Dora, Gladys and Isabell.) Well, from Hurricane Hilda the New Orleans (Michoud space center) area was declared a disaster area. Next the Russians announced that they would send up two space ships, each containing three people. So I decided that enough was enough...that I would begin hitting the Russian efforts. On Oct. 11 I wrote NASA and the National Security Council that I would attack this Russ space shoot with my PK work, and force the space ships down. I directed PK at two space ships. One went up. I do not know what happened to the other one. And the one that went up, came down prematurely. Because, it is believed, there was "trouble." I can assure everyone that there was. Then Hurricane Isabell formed, and I guided her straight onto the Cape target. (With each hurricane making "hits" I have had to correct its direction usually one or more times. Cleo started to turn left into the Gulf, and I had to correct her to the right. Dora was going north; I had to correct her to the west. Isabell was going off into the Gulf; I had to correct her to the right. And I might mention that I was successful in experimenting with Cleo in making her circle and hover, for one or more hours, in an area.) There you have a factual report, unbelievable in content, but perfectly true. Perhaps I have written it poorly, but it has happened, and the facts cannot be denied. The question is: What is the U. S. Government going to do about it? Will they use this tremendous ability and power I have stumbled onto by accident...or will they continue to ignore and disregard it? I think that any country in its right mind would immediately contact me and begin tests and assignments. After all, this controlled PK has a wide variety of uses, both constructive and destructive. And I will tell you that I feel that President Johnson must remain our President, for the safety of our country...and am directing harmless PK against his opponents to utterly defeat them. As I say, PK works in a variety of ways. This is sworn to be an absolutely true report.

Man) === Page 9 of 11 Copy: Aug. 30, 1964 9/3/64 P2 In the interest of science and ultimately helping the U.S., I have extended a "PK" field over the area from Daytona Beach to Miami, some six weeks ago. PK, as you know, is Psychokinesis -- powers of the mind over matter. Question -- Can Russia, by finding top ESP personnel, attack US people, US missile bases, Polaris subs, etc -- by using PK? It is fact that I can do this to Russia, for I have discovered a "control" method. Your particular area has been my proving ground for 6 weeks. The lightning and the hurricane were my creation. Around the entire Cape Kennedy area I have set up a PK wall so formidable that technically no missile should be able to take off and become operational. Planes and personnel (human error) can also be affected. The main things to beware of are: (1) Lightning strikes Titan missile & ground controls, Moon Pad Rocket Gemini-5 (2) Tornadoes and hurricanes, Cleo, Dora, Isabell, Betsy '65 (3) Breakdown of small, delicate parts. (4) Fires. Space Eye (5) High % of human error. ↑ These entries added later Your area was set, turned on (like an alarm clock) six weeks ago, and will be (and has been) heavily affected by the above. I could do the same to the California coast & New Mexico installations -- but do not intend to. Yours is the proving ground for PK. in the military.

In other words, the Cape will be target area again. And I learned much last year ... so that this year should be much more successful. Included with the hurricanes will be lightning strikes, freak accidents, sudden storms of less than hurricane intensity, etc. In the event that a hurricane gets away from me, due to an oversight, which happened once last year...then I'll do the same thing I did last year... try to guide it over to the Michoud space complex in Louisiana, near New Orleans. I also may do some work on Houston, Texas. It is my hope that some day someone wise will believe in my rare PK ability, and allow me to proceed with the work that I am now blocked from doing, by the U.S. Government. Respectfully, P K Man (c/o Owens) Congress Hotel, Room 600 12th and Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Lightning Kills Worker At Saturn Launch Pad Cape Kennedy, Aug. 4 (UPI)--Lightning hit a crane used on a Saturn 5 moon rocket launch pad yesterday, killing one man and injuring five others. The dead man was identified as A. Trieb, 33, of Mitchell, S. D., one construction worker was hospitalized and four others were treated and released at a base medical center. A spokesman for the Army Corps of Engineers, overseer of the construction under way here, said the men were pouring concrete on the 40-foot level of the launch complex when lightning traveled down the crane's cables to the wet concrete. Workers standing near the concrete were burned and knocked down by the flash. LIGHTNING STRIKE!!

RE HEAT AT POLAR BASES 'Flying Saucer' Is Reported March 9, 1965. SANTIAGO, Chile, July 8 (AP). - From the Antarctic Thursday came official reports that a mysterious lens-shaped flying object, maneuvering and moving at great speed, was sighted last Saturday. A Chilean base commander in the Antarctic reported the object was "yellowish red, changing to green, yellow and orange." In Buenos Aires, the Navy issued a communique saying personnel at Argentina's Antarctic base saw the flying object and photographed it. Mario Jahn Barrera, commander of the Chilean base, told the Defense Ministry by radio that it would be too much to say that "all of us saw a flying saucer, one of these science-fiction things." "However," he continued, "it was something real, an object that moved at amazing speed, maneuvered quickly and gave off a blue-green sheen. It also caused interference in the electromagnetic apparatus of an Argentine base which is facing ours on a nearby small island." The interference was confirmed by the Navy communique issued in Buenos Aires. "The object was yellowish red," Jahn said, "changing to green, yellow and orange. It would zigzag quickly. Then it stopped and we promptly reached for field glasses, telescopes, anything at hand to sight it. We watched as it remained quietly there for about 20 minutes." Jahn said a corporal took color pictures but there are no facilities for developing the film. The men must wait for eight months to be relieved to have the film developed on the mainland. George: (CIA) I got a real shock. Someone called home before I got home from office, and my boy, Harvey, took the call. It was someone from St. Paul, interested "in my offer". My brilliant son did not get the name or location...the party said they would call back...but they never did. I almost had an offer from somebody interested in PK, before I strike out at Gelman. ..back to the same theme, George. I guarantee (and look at the astounding I have had with practically all my projects) to reverse the current the U.S. getting the shaft every day, in every way...and can change mate in V to winning for us, and bringing about what the U.S. wants. can be done with PK as easily as bringing about storms...knocking down ..putting officials in the hospital, etc. Mr. McCone's sister passing away...and PK had nothing to do with that, me if Mr. C. thought it had...he would send me to V and have me dropped rachute over VC headquarters. There are two interesting things now to tell you: (1) Nature has told me to tell you that to prove it is using me as its representative, it will do something without my using PK, or knowing any of its workings. Nature will, in the near future, change the North and South Poles. As the message came to me, I believe it will use extreme heat to affect those two places...and change the magnetic condition of the Poles. Nature added that you won't have to check with any Bureau on it...that the result will be strong enough to make the newspapers, where you can read about it. Note: this is the first time anything like this has occurred. I don't know what Nature is talking about, or what it plans. Will be interesting to see. (2) Exercise Silver Lance was useless, for test purposes. An invalid experiment. Any results from the Exercise are not worth the paper they are printed on. Why? Because Silver Lance was conducted in a growing, active PK field, with a wide variety of mechanisms at work in the field that would undoubtedly affect the Exercise to a large extent. The field is Electra; the California coast. If you doubt this statement, just look at Electro, in Florida, and what has happened there in my first PK field. Since July the entire area has been like an elephant with the nervous shakes staggering around drunk in a china shop. There have been hurricanes criss-crossing the place; planes have been falling down; President Johnson narrowly escaped bad injury on two occasions; the Space Eye burned down; and over a dozen rockets and missiles either blew up, fell down, or got up and went haywire. So don't tell me the PK doesn't work on an area. So, Silver Lance, to be a true experiment in the logical sense of the word, would have to be held somewhere else, without PK affecting it, to get a valid idea of its results, test-wise. Check? Hoping the U.S. Government will use this tool, sometime this week, I remain PK Man 08/02/2025 15:54 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Text Any textual data included in the document === Page 1 of 3 August 25, 1964 MEMO: TO THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES Very recently lightning struck, and left its mark, on a Titan missile at Cape Kennedy, Florida. It was my lightning. Next, Hurricane Cleo formed and descended on .......... Cape Kennedy, Florida. It was my hurricane. You are, of course, quite skeptical, and will think, of course, that it would be impossible to be true. Anyone can check with the Space Agency at Cape Kennedy..........or the State Department in Washington, D. C., and if they tell the truth they will tell you that I informed them weeks in advance of the above two events. I even wired the Space Agency that I could stop Hurricane Cleo from striking it .......... even before Cleo reached Miami. They did not reply, so I had no alternative but to let Cleo take her route, which I had laid out for her. (Over three hundred million dollars in damage could have been avoided.) But, there are more important matters than a few hundred million dollars loss.......... hence this unusual communication. And, I might add, the aforementioned 'catastrophes' are merely a sample of what lies ahead. Do I think that I've been elected to 'save the world'? No. Do I think, perhaps, that I am God? No. Or Jesus? No. I am not insane or psychotic. I am a human being, utterly astonished at what is being dealt out through me, by Nature. And, I might add, I am quite willing to accept the awesome responsibility given to me by Nature.......... in spite of the lumps that I know I shall receive from my fellow humans. (It is extremely important that the reason for my "PK" ability (to cause storms; to direct lightning bolts; to form and guide hurricanes; to cause fires far away from myself; to sink subs far away in the ocean; to cause missiles to explode in their silos) be understood by all.) 08/02/2025 15:45 === Page 2 of 3 2 Nature (God) is dedicated to the perpetuation of the human race of mankind. But mankind, at present, is seemingly dedicated toward its own obliteration and destruction. "Man's inhumanity to man" is the banner now flying. Nature, therefore, must step in, in an unusual manner, and show the world, by demonstration, that Nature... not mankind...controls the preservation of the species. That Nature's own secrets hold far greater power and scope than do H-bombs and stockpiles of war materials. Nature has, oddly enough, appointed me as its human voice and representative... to speak its intelligence to you. Furthermore, Nature is fully aware that without signs and wonders you wouldn't believe me. Nature has, therefore, endowed me with unbelievable powers - a small demonstration of which I have already made.* This is what Nature is saying, through my pen: First, it is absolutely necessary that my own country and Government (which has the Bible and Christianity at its core) be convinced of the basic truth of this message. Nature is eager, and completely, wholeheartedly, willing to back me up in any constructive move to bring this about. (Should I misuse this infinite power placed in my hands by a trusting but omnipresent Nature, then it will transfer the power to a more worthy human, to carry on the program. People can be stopped, but Nature never. Then, after my own Government is convinced, this dynamic power of Nature will be directed, focused, upon the mouldy, rotting spots of mankind - and these spots eliminated, so that mankind will stop deteriorating and grow healthy. Mark this: All materials of warfare must be transformed into plowshares - or else. Or else Nature will chastise the erring country with catastrophe after catastrophe. Earthquake, fire, famine, flood, sickness. Nature will select the proper catastrophes to bring the unbelieving country to its knees. *By this later date, Sept. 25, have successfully brought down Titan III; 000, the ruined 08/02/2025 15:45 === Page 3 of 3 3 Let Kruschev say "God and Religion - phooey! The State will give you candy." Let Papa Duvalier say "My voodoo devils are greater than your God." Let Castro say "Cuba and Russia are friends...we need no God." But Nature wishes to make some drastic changes. Working from my own country, and protected by my government, I will direct certain powers of Nature onto any country filled with the spirit of hate and killing and war. My own country, observing the results, will, when peace in the world is assured, lay aside all weapons of war - or else. And return to a stronger faith in the absolute power of God and Nature than now exists among its peoples. Perhaps from reading this it will be thought that I am 'some kind of nut' - or religious fanatic. But what you may think is really irrelevant and immaterial, for Nature will be heard. It's voice is coming through, loud and clear. You can expect to continue to see signs and wonders, until you believe. Until Nature's voice is recognized, and fully obeyed. H. T.

Dear George: My letter to you of December 28: "The Si's are getting restless...they are going tonudge the United States....I think it would be an earthquake...so, within the next few days or few weeks....." Four days later, Jan. 1, on the front page of the Phila. Bulletin: ""Tremor Is Felt In N.Y., Penna. - "A 15-20 second earth tremor (earthquake) was felt Saturday at 8:24 A.M. in parts of western New York, northwestern Pennsylvania and southern Ontario Province in Canada.........." Now, this was small...not a disaster area, George...and when I made inquiry with the Si's, this was the intelligence I received: The Si's are not trying to be overly destructive; they could have made this 7, 8 or 9 on the Richter Scale if they wanted...but it is in the nature of a warning, for now. Merely a warning that they mean what they say, and to look out if we do not pay attention. Also their quick reaction to my letter to you is to underline my letter's validity. They add: they are not from outer space, as some other UFO intelligences are. They are from another dimension. There is a difference. P K Man (Owens) Dad 08/02/2025 14:37 === Page 2 of 140 1-3-65 P2 # Tremor Is Felt In N. Y., Penna. BUFFALO, N. Y., Jan. 1 (AP). -- A 15-to-20-second earth tremor was felt Saturday at 8:24 A. M. (EST) in parts of western New York, northwestern Pennsylvania and southern Ontario Province in Canada. No injuries or property damage was reported, authorities said. Dr. Austin McTigue, director of the physics department and in charge of the seismograph at Canisius College, said he believed that the tremor originated in the Attica-Warsaw area of Wyoming county in New York State, where there is a known active fault or fracture in the crust of the earth. FRONT PAGE SUNDAY 1/1/66 Ted Owens (P K Man) 1114 Spruce St., #33 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania === Page 3 of 140 1-3-65 p3 Mr. Dunne Chief, Hurricane Center Miami, Florida Dear Mr. Dunne: I will make you one of the most unusual offers you have ever had. If you will check my previous correspondence, you will know that I have made some startling discoveries (I claim) in the field of weather control... and specifically in the field of hurricane control. I will make you the following proposition: I will guarantee that Florida will be free from hurricane attack and damage in 1966 (clear through hurricane season to January 1, 1967) for a fee of $100,000. $10,000 down if the proposition is accepted; the balance to be paid on January 1, 1967, if no hurricane hits or damages Florida during the year 1966. This fee is small, compared to the damage one single hurricane can do to Florida (like Betsy). Also, the fee is not as much as that paid to some pro football players. Now...if I fail to keep my guarantee good...then you may have me put in prison for fraud (because I will use the down-payment of $10,000 on renting a house, expenses, etc., in Miami.) That is the confidence I have in my rare and unique ability... I will bet my winning, against a prison sentence for fraud. Should you be interested in my unorthodox approach to weather-control protection for Miami, and Florida, for 1966, contact me as soon as possible. Sincerely, Ted Owens (P K Man) 1114 Spruce St., #33 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania === Page 4 of 140 2/6/65 p1 (Copy of first UFO message received, at night, at 418 Peabody St., NW, Washington, D.C., with Lormie and Rick present) February 6, 1965 (First came five symbols...triangle, rectangle, "A" "B" "C" - and I realized that the UFO's were testing, much as I would test a microphone, to see if it was working.) They: Can't come (in answer to my request that they come down) - later. Me: Can you knock down satellites up in the sky, as a signal to me that this is real? They: We will go find them and blot out. Me: When can we meet? They: We know you. We are friends. Tonight is late for us. Power low. Keep open! mind. We will be back with you. Your needs will be met. A study is being made of how to bring this about. Why are your people crazy? Your earth is disorganized. We would like to help organize it. We did once before, long ago in your time. People wore robes, as you call them, then, and wore boards, hair on their faces. Me: Can you give me an instrument with which I could demonstrate unusual powers, to convince earth-people that you are real? For instance, a "magic pencil" wand? They: You could not use what you call a "pencil" but it is a good idea, and we will send you a tool for the purpose. You will know...repeat...know you have talked with us tonight. We will arrange next few days to be seen by your people and by that method you will know we are making a signal for you. Count the number of different places we are seen, and this will be the number of days before we are able to contact you again. A magnetic condition makes it hard for us to get through to you at all times. You have a question now? Me: I need $5,000 to buy a car and go across country to meet you. This is money. They: Yes, we know money, but do not use it. (They talk among themselves) Can you use diamonds? Me: Yes, of course, to get the money. They: We have a lot of diamonds. 08/02/2025 14:37 === Page 5 of 140 2/6/65 p2 2 Me: Perhaps you could fly over me and drop me a supply of diamonds. They: We will think on it. If we do we will include the tool you need to prove to your people there must be no people-war on earth with atomic weapons. Me: I am tired. Not used to this. They: Yes. We did not think. Goodbye now, friend. (Next time they "came in" like osmosis was the evening of March 6, 1965.) They: Do not go away, far, Viet Nam. Your people will try to kill you. We need you alive. Listen carefully...there are others like us, against us, who could cause you harm. Be careful of your life, of your shell. It has taken us ages, in your time, to find a shell like you who can communicate with us. We do not want to lose you. But remember that you are, every moment, in great danger from "them" who use shells (people) bodies. They look like and seem like real people, but they are not. (I got the impression they mean that there are UFO entities which have somehow entered human bodies, and therefore, since they are enemies of these UFO entities, will try to do away with me.) Me: Can you end the war in Viet Nam and help my country, the United States, to become healthy and great again? They: We can and we will. But you must not go there! Instead go to Hong Kong or Japan as a tourist. Go by freighter ship. We can contact you on the ship. We will defeat your enemies for you in Viet Nam and bring peace. We will help your country. But your country must help you for you are our instrument. Does not your people approach certain fish, to communicate with fish? We do likewise. We go now to try to approach you. Be ready for us. Me: I will. (That same evening, later on, they "came in" again) They: Are you ready? 08/02/2025 14:37 === Page 6 of 140 2/6/65 p3 3 Me: Yes. They: We have a plan. Please turn that machine off. (My transistor radio.) Me: I did. They: Can't get through tonight very good - ver well. Do you have a car-machine? Me: Yes, but it will not work. It's broken. That is why I need money. They: We are going to take care of that....money. Do not worry about it. You will be richer than anyone in your country before long. We want to see you, talk to you. Can we come down? Me: Yes, to my back door. I'll let you in. They: Will you be alone? Me: Yes. I'll have my family stay upstairs. They: No harm will come to us? Me: No. Absolutely not. Lower your flying machine near my back door and step onto my back porch. Knock loudly on the door. I'll let you in and we can communicate. I am very pleased, and anxious to meet you. They: Yes. We have what you need to convince your crazy people...your government... that we exist, and can control your world. You can use it. It will be yours to keep. Me: Thank you. They: You need a car, so that you can go far away. We will try to get you one. Me: My child is sick. Also a girl, our friend, in a hospital (Brenda Sue Pennington. Will you heal them? They: We will, indeed, heal them. Worry not. Listen carefully...no time is to be lost. Your people must pay attention to you and listen to you, else we must destroy most of the earth's peoples, to begin all over again. Me: You mean, what is happening now has happened before? They: Many times. 08/02/2025 14:37 === Page 7 of 140 2/6/65 p4 4 Me: When are you coming to see me? They: Tonight we will try. Flash your light (flashlight) upward every hour as long as you can. Me: Can you locate me from signals from my brain? They: We can. Me: I'll also leave a light on so you can see. They: No. Turn it off so we will not be seen by others. This is important. Me: Where are you from? They: Some - Jupiter. Others, other places. Even from inside this earth. Goodbye, now. Me: Yes, goodbye. ---------- Note: I set up the scene; put the family upstairs, got the flashlight and blinked it for a long while, but no contact. However, during the previous three weeks many flying saucers had been sighted over Washington, D.C., and over nearby Virginia. The night of February 6, many were seen over Washington...and it was written up in the papers. Then....I thought no more about it, since proof was not forthcoming...until the UFO over the South Pole, while I was in Philadelphia, made my prediction come true in detail. There could no longer be any doubt at all, about my having communicated with them, as far as I am concerned. Lornie & Rick can be reached for confirmation: Lornie & Rick Owens c/o Shannon 505 S.

Pole Bases # Flying Saucer' Is Reported SANTIAGO, Chile, July 8 (AP). -- From the Antarctic Thursday came official reports that a mysterious lens-shaped flying object, maneuvering and moving at great speed, was sighted last Saturday. A Chilean base commander in the Antarctic reported the object was "yellowish red, changing to green, yellow and orange." In Buenos Aires, the Navy issued a communique saying personnel at Argentina's Antarctic base saw the flying object and photographed it. Mario Jahn Barrera, commander of the Chilean base, told the Defense Ministry by radio that it would be too much to say that "all of us saw a flying saucer, one of these science-fiction things." "However," he continued, "it sued in Buenos Aires. "The object was yellowish red," Jahn said, "changing to green, yellow and orange. It was stopped and we promptly reached for field glasses, telescopes, anything at hand to sight it. We watched as it remained quietly there for about 20 minutes." Jahn said a corporal took color pictures but there are no facilities for developing the film. The men must wait for eight months to be relieved to have the film developed on the mainland. === Page 10 of 140 Tuesday, March 9, 1965 Dear George: There are two interesting things now to tell you: (1) Nature has told me to tell you that to prove it is using me as its representative, it will do something without my using PK, or knowing any of its workings. Nature will, in the near future, change the North and South Poles. As the message came to me, I believe it will use extreme heat to affect those two places and change the magnetic condition of the Poles. Nature added that you won't have to check with any Bureau on it...that the result will be strong enough to make the newspapers, where you can read about it. Note: this is the first time anything like this has occurred. I don't know what Nature is talking about, or what it plans. Will be interesting to see. (2) Exercise Silver Lance was useless, for test purposes. An invalid experiment. Any results from the Exercise are not worth the paper they are printed on. Why? Because Silver Lance was conducted in a growing, active PK field, with a wide variety of mechanisms at work in the field that would undoubtedly affect the Exercise to a large extent. The field is Electra; the California coast. If you doubt this statement, just look at Electro, in Florida, and what has happened there in my first PK field. Since July the entire area has been like an elephant with the nervous shakes staggering around drunk in a china shop. There have been hurricanes criss-crossing the place; planes have been falling down; President Johnson narrowly escaped bad injury on two occasions; the Space Eye burned down; and over a dozen rockets and missiles either blew up, fell down, or got up and went haywire. So don't tell me the PK doesn't work on an area. So, Silver Lance, to be a true experiment in the logical sense of the word, would have to be held somewhere else, without PK affecting it, to get a valid idea of its results, test-wise. Check?

"However," he continued, "it was something real, an object that moved at amazing speed, maneuvered quickly and gave off a blue-green sheen. It also caused interference in the electromagnetic apparatus of an Argentine base which is facing ours on a nearby small island." The interference was confirmed by the Navy communique issued in Buenos Aires. "The object was yellowish red," Jahn said, "changing to green, yellow and orange. It would zigzag quickly.

Someone called home before I got home from the office, and my boy, Harvey, took the call. It was someone from St. Paul, Minn., interested "in my offer". My brilliant son did not get the name or identification...the party said they would call back...but they never did. So...I almost had an offer from somebody interested in PK, before I strike out this week at Gelman. Anyway, back to the same theme, George. I guarantee (and look at the astounding success I have had with practically all my projects) to reverse the current trend of the U.S. getting the shaft every day, in every way...and can change the climate in V to winning for us, and bringing about what the U.S. wants. This can be done with PK as easily as bringing about storms...knocking down planes...putting officials in the hospital, etc. I regret Mr. McCone's sister passing away...and PK had nothing to do with that, I am sure. I imagine if Mr. C. thought it had...he would send me to V and have me dropped in a parachute over VC headquarters. There are two interesting things now to tell you: (1) Nature has told me to tell you that to prove it is using me as its representative, it will do something without my using PK, or knowing any of its workings. Nature will, in the near future, change the North and South Poles.

Why? Because it proves conclusively that "P K Man" and all of the unusual things claimed by P K Man, are genuine and real. Simply check with the CIA. I sent "George Clark" of CIA a letter on March 9, 1965: "Nature has told me to tell you that to prove it is using me as its representative, it will do something without my using PK, or knowing any of its workings. Nature will, in the near future, change the North and South Poles. As the message came to me, I believe it will use extreme heat to affect those two places...and change the magnetic condition of the Poles. Nature added that you won't have to check with any Bureau on it...that the result will be strong enough to make the newspapers, where you can read about it." There you are, President Johnson. This morning, you can read in your newspaper, the following: "Flying Saucer Is Reported - Sighted At 2 S. Pole Bases" "....It also caused interference in the electro-magnetic apparatus of an Argentine base which is facing ours on a nearby small island. The interference was confirmed by the Navy communique issued in Buenos Aires....." Well...Nature has proved that it is using me as its representative, just as it said it would...by affecting the South Pole's magnetic condition. Has anyone else lately, in the CIA or the State Department, been able to make such a prediction? I tell you that I am the most valuable human being right now in the entire world, simply because Nature and I can communicate! And the U.S. Government has access to all of this vast power of Nature, which is linked to me...and refuses to use it! Rejects it! Incredible. Respectfully, but very sadly Because I know what is ahead.......... P. K. Man c/o Owens Congress Hotel, Room 600 12th and Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania === Page 14 of 140 Lornie & Rick 7/9/65 p2 July 9, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA. Dear George: Well, what do you know...after successfully predicting dozens of major happenings (missing only a few times, on space shots) it seems I have missed again! In my letter to you of March 14, 1965, I predicted President Johnson would be gravely ill by June. Tch; tch! Now, how could I have missed that one? And I have been so very very accurate in the past. Also, in the same letter I predicted Pres. Johnson's family member, or close friend, would pass away or be lost, by August...and that he would cry and grieve. Well, it isn't August yet, is it. Notice lately how government officials are falling like bowling pins? Reedy out with "sore feet." General Maxwell Taylor out, with sore something. Dirkson out of action, in the hospital, with sore stomach. A Congressman got smashed with a truck, not long ago - and so on. The "PK pattern" is on now and working, after a time-lag, and you can tell. And the U.S. drought is getting worse now, isn't it...yet no one will take a wild chance, and let P K Man go to work with PK and Nature, to end the drought. Oh yes, I could go ahead and do it on my own....but I cannot, George, because Nature calls the shots, gives me instructions, brings about the results....and Nature insists that the U.S. Government do it Nature's way. Nature is, after all, most concerned because the U.S. Government has put itself above and beyond Nature....so that now Nature is going to prove, bit by painful bit, that such is not so...that Nature is much mightier than all of the money and hydrogen bombs and power of the U.S., or any other country. Now, here is another thing of VERY GREAT interest to CIA...see my letter to you of March 9, 1965, 4th paragraph: "Nature has told me to tell you that to prove it is using me as its representative, it will do something without my using PK, or knowing any of its workings. Nature will, in the near future, change the North and South Poles. As the message came to me, I believe it will use extreme heat to affect those two places....and change the magnetic condition of the Poles. Nature added that you won't have to check with any Bureau on it...that the result will be strong enough to make the newspapers, where you can read about it. Note: This is the first time anything like this has occurred. I don't know what Nature is talking about, or what it plans. Will be interesting to see." All right, this morning in the paper was the clipping: "Flying Saucer Is Reported" "Sighted At 2 S. Pole Bases" "..........It also caused interference in the electromagnetic apparatus of an Argentine base which is facing ours on a nearby small island. The interference was confirmed by the Navy communique issued in Buenos Aires....." Well, well, George Clark! Now what do you make of that? My prediction of March 9, seems to have been remarkably accurate for July 9, yes? Incidentally, I saw a picture in Life mag of two of the midwest tornadoes (where about 80 tornadoes and near-tornadoes struck) and these two tornadoes in the Life 1 pic were lighted up by lightning. Well, they didn't look like tornadoes to me. I have the picture, and wish I could talk to you about it further. P M MAN (Owens) 08/02/2025 14:49 === Page 15 of 140 July 10, 1965 President Johnson Dear Mr. President: Copy - Lonnie - Rick (Send me cigars & cigarettes, kids. They'll probably come for me.) Enclosed is an exact copy of a letter written by myself and sent to Mr. "George Clark" of your CIA, at Washington 25, D. C. It was sent on March 9, 1965. Notice the paragraph marked in red. Now, four months later, comes the proof, referred to in the marked paragraph. See the newspaper clipping attached to this copy of the letter, taken from yesterday's newspaper. Put the two items together, and you have concrete, absolute proof...that all of my past correspondence to you, and the CIA, and NASA, and the State Department...is valid and true, no matter if it sounded fantastic. And, of course, it did sound fantastic. Only myself, and my family, know that it was true, and now you also, can know it. Mr. Dunn, of the CIA, was interested in knowing the "causal factor" of my "PK" phenomena. At the time I spoke with him, all I could tell him was that the causal factor was the intelligence behind Nature, with which I had managed to arrange a communication, or method of communicating. However, now we know differently. The causal factor, for Mr. Dunn's information, and your own, as well, seems to be these 'flying saucers' - whatever they are. But, whatever they are, they can: Cause earthquakes to occur; cause fires to start; cause people to become ill, singly or en masse; cause floods and tornados and hurricanes; cause planes to explode in mid-air, or on the ground, and so on. These are some of their destructive abilities. Their main purpose is to stop the warfare on earth; the killing, the hate, the black negativism now so current, world-wide. When these saucers telepathically contacted me, and had me relay this information on March 9 to George Clark, of your CIA...then actually gave the needed proof on July 7, over the South Pole...by changing the electro-magnetic condition of the area, and then getting the action put into the newspapers...just as described in my letter of March 9...they not only gave the U.S. Government the proof that it needs, but the actual letter of March 9 must be read more closely...the rest of the material in it...for these saucers, you must remember, are using my mind, my eyes, my voice...for communication...and they will use my typing, also. I am sure that there is other information in that letter which the saucers want the U.S. to know about, and believe. Now, at the time I typed that information, and sent it to CIA, I was perplexed. Because always, before I was told that a storm would happen, or an earthquake, or that people would get sick and go to the hospital. But to be told that "Nature" would change the electro-magnetic condition at the N. and/or S. Pole, and then get it put into the newspapers, as proof that I was representing "Nature" - seemed ridiculous to me, and I hated to send that paragraph to Mr. Clark, because for one thing it seemed impossible that anything could change the magnetic condition at the Poles, and then for it to be publicized also seemed impossible. But of course, I didn't reckon on a "flying saucer" to make it possible. The fact that it was brought about...was done in this manner...by this tremendous intelligence which has been running hurricanes across Florida, etc etc...is an indication of its tremendous knowledge. Any other 09/22/2025 11:45 === Page 16 of 140 7/10/65 p2 phenomena, such as storms, planes falling, etc., that I have predicted to the CIA and NASA...could be pointed to as accidental, or a coincidence, or that it is just good guessing, or that perhaps I am precognitive, but that is all. Now you, the President, and the U.S. Government, stand notified that this is not so. It is not all indeed. I have all of the power of these "flying saucers" and their intelligent beings, in back of me. A study, or analysis of my previous voluminous correspondence, will readily show you how all this has come about, and how it has been brought about. My own children have seen me sketch on a paper the route I have wanted Hurricane Cleo in '64 to take...and a route contradictory to that given by the Weather Bureau...and the hurricane changed direction, not once but several times, to follow my routing - not only my routing, but to pause for a long interval in two places and just sit there and swirl around. Now you, and I, can understand more about this...how it was done. Somehow these saucers either create these hurricanes, or are the hurricanes. The intelligences running these saucers do not, of course, speak English, and must rely on methods of contacting some human on earth telepathically in order to converse with the peoples on earth. This they have been trying to do by landing, then speaking to one or two people in that isolated spot...but of course the humans they have approached have been too frightened or apprehensive to cooperate. My make-up is so peculiar, and perhaps resembles their own so much, in the mind...that they have somehow managed to break through and reach my mind. It is a two-way communication, in that I can signal them and talk to them also...not in words, but in mental pictures of what is wanted, or needed. Visual imagery. President Johnson, let me speak frankly. Your life is in great danger. Not from me, that would be ridiculous. I understand you, and like you. So understand that this is no threat from myself against you. I know that you could have the Secret Service pick me up today and throw me into prison for writing the above, just on suspicion. But I am trusting in your good judgment not to have this done, for this is no personal threat of mine. I am interested right now only in providing a home and background for my family. But, what I mean in the above, when I say that your life is in great danger, is that these "saucer" intelligences will not hesitate to eliminate you, in their own way, if you persist in not listening to them, or in paying attention to them. They are trying desperately to avert a nuclear war on this earth...and temporarily you are standing in their way!...because you will not recognize me as their representative, and be guided by them, through me. Not to mention the power they wish to place at our disposal, once we listen to them, and begin cooperating. Again I reiterate...I am warning you only as a friend warns a friend. I am not threatening you. Believe me, you could book me into the White House tomorrow to do my knife-throwing act, and you could stand in Louella's place, and I would throw my knives around you without touching you. That is how safe you are, and would be, with me. I am talking about are those "saucers". === Page 17 of 140 Copy - Lonnie & Harvey July 12, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: "Nature" or the "saucers" or whatever the intelligence is...wants me to tell the U.S. Government what IT wishes from the U.S. Government. So, below, is what It wishes. Incidentally, I was against writing this, for myself, in my own mind...yet this vast, powerful Intelligence insisted that I send this to you, so will do it. (a) Wants the U.S. Govt. to provide me with $100,000, tax-free, so that I can fix my wife and child up with a home in Texas, plus all necessities; get tools which I will need; and take myself to Europe. The money is to last a year, at which time another $100,000 is to be provided, for the rest of my life (which might not be long, if the Russ get to me.) (b) They want me to be given a permit to carry a gun for protection, and want me to have a guard at all times. Say, a Special Forces judo and gun expert, to accompany me wherever I go. (c) They want the U.S. Government to furnish me with a mountain hideaway in Europe, preferably an isolated castle...yes, they stress this heavily...a castle in an isolated spot. Even if I would have to live in discomfort in one room of the darn thing...they want me to be placed in a castle, in an isolated location, in Europe. That is what comes through, loud and clear. I take it they will then attempt to approach me with their machines, and in person, as soon as they are certain that just myself and my bodyguard are in the area. (d) They want the complete story of "P K Man" sent all around the world, for TV and newspaper coverage. Not to advertise P K Man, who can do nothing of himself, but to advertise the fact that the saucers are here, are for real, are at work doing certain things...what some of those things are...and what the aims of the saucers are. And that they, the saucers, are communicating with me, P K Man, and are back of the United States Govt. in bringing peace to the world. (e) Now, don't laugh at this George...I am only repeating what I am told to tell you, just like the March 9 letter. They want a 2-hour TV appearance of P K Man with Pres. Johnson, to lay the entire matter out for the world to know about. Why? Because, they want to scare the Russians and Chinese into line. And, they state, they will back it all up with action, as needed. Just like they backed up the March 9 letter...and other things, earlier. Their suggestion is to open the TV 2-hour show with something that will get the interest of the world immediately...and hold it. Not the usual yakkity political openings...but President Johnson standing in front of a knife-board, and my knives hitting all around him, while he just stands, with a look of boredom on his face. This to show the world his bravery, fearlessness, and spirit of daring. It would tremendously impress much of the people's of the world, and it his highly doubtful if any other President would attempt to equal his feat. Also, and just as important, it would serve to introduce P K Man.... and rivet the attention of the peoples of the world onto the TV screen, as nothing else would. Then for the remainder of the 2 hours, President Johnson would go over the storm-making, hurricanes, etc etc., with P K Man...and it would be brought out that the saucers are on our side, and so forth. This also would make quite an impression on the peoples of the world. (f) I must have freedom at all times...to get where I want...and do what I want...because 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 18 of 140 7/12/65 p2 Page Two since they contact me through telepathic pictures, they wouldn't want me to be rigidly held in any one place...but free to come and go, as necessary. (g) They want me to have quick communication with President Johnson, so that they can tell him things that the U.S. might not know at any given time, which could help us, or he could ask them to perform certain things...which would benefit in bringing about good for the world in general. And they state they are excellent judges of what that might be. There it is...George. I do not hear voices; am not hallucinating. Am not having "delusions of grandeur" or "change-of-life" troubles. I will stack up my predictions and 'hits' against those of any ESP worker. Of course I do not expect any action or answer for the U.S. Government...have been trying too long now, for that. But I have delivered this message, which is what They want. And it's done. Respectfully, P K Man, c/o Owens Congress Hotel, Rm. 600 12th and Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania === Page 19 of 140 Copy - Lornie + Quick July 14, 1965 Mr. H. Mat Adams Alternate Chairman Delaware River Basin Commission 25 Scotch Road Suburban Square Trenton, New Jersey Reply to: 601 George Street, New Brunswick, New Jersey. Dear Mr. Adams: With reference to my letter to you of several weeks ago, in regard to alleviating the drought in your area....I appreciate the courtesy of your letter of July 12, 1965, in answer. Especially in view of the fact that my "mysterious suggestion" was not conducive to any serious consideration. However, Mr. Adams, I assure you that the circumstances are unusual, to say the least. Now I am going to tell you something that you will not believe...but it was I who caused the hurricanes of 1964 to hit the area of Cape Kennedy, and Michoud Missile Complex in Louisiana. It was I who caused the floods on the West Coast at Christmas that the newspapers said could never happen again in 1,000 years. And I caused the Midwest tornados and floods, recently. I do not expect you to believe this, of course, even though it is quite true. But I would suggest that you, if you are interested, contact Central Intelligence Agency in Washington, D. C., and tell them of the proposition I made you...which costs you absolutely nothing except maintenance of myself and wife and child for a short while. Of course, when the rains and floods come, and you have water enough for years, with the drought completely broken...then my fee still stands. The CIA know of my work. They should tell you, in effect: This man has done some strange things that we can't explain. He could be just an eccentric, a "nut" - however, there are things that he has done which would not fit into the "nut" category, and we would recommend that you give his abilities a try, at least...since the cost is negligible. Should he do what he claims to be able to do, cause rains and storms and floods that will end the drought, it would certainly be worth the fee. I must tell you in all sincerity, Mr. Adams....the drought will get worse, and worse, and worse, and worse. I do not care what you try in order to alleviate it...seeding, etc., it will not work. There is only one source which can bring your area rain in constant and great amounts necessary to end the drought on the East Coast, which has been in effect for some years. That one source is myself. Should you decide to try me, later on, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me, either at the current address...or c/o Lornie Owens, Shannon, 505 S. Osage, Inglewood, California. If you want the drought ended in the Delaware River Basin, Mr. Adams, you will most certainly be able to find the small amount of funds necessary to keep me and my wife and child while I break your drought for you. And I will even make you a more sporting proposition than that. If I do not completely break and end your drought within three months time (that has lasted for === Page 20 of 140 7-14-65 P2 2 years) then I will repay you any monies which you have spent in maintaining myself and wife and child for that brief period of time. What could be fairer? Perhaps you should know the entire story, Mr. Adams. As fantastic as it is, you should know it. The tremendous intelligences of the "flying saucers" are in communication with me - the only human being on earth that they can actually converse with, in their own way. For the past months they have been trying to prove this fact to the U.S. Govt., which quite naturally refused to believe it. It was only just recently that they identified themselves..........before that I did not know what it was that was causing storms when I wanted them, where I wanted them...and other things to happen as well. They are now in the process of letting the ...our ... world know that they are real, they are here, and they have great power which we do not have. They do, in fact, want to frighten us with their powers. Their purpose is to stop the warfare now going on; block any possibility of further war; and get people and minds straightened out in the world. In effect, give the world a 10 to 20 year "breather" of peace and true brotherly-love - without war, without hate, without all of the conditions which are now wrecking the world as we know it. The saucers control our weather, when they wish. They can start tornados and hurricanes, and somehow they can guide them. The saucers at this time are creating a world-wide condition of drought. They will dry up the entire earth and make water scarce. This will cause sickness, an imbalance in Nature which will cause trouble with insects, reptiles, etc. Since New York is perhaps the most widely-known part of the U.S., it will be made a drought-example, as well as the entire area surrounding it. Unless, that is, the U.S. Government and the people of the U.S. recognize the saucer intelligences, and take steps to ally our government with the saucer intelligences. It is very comical but somewhat sad that at the present time we are desperately trying to woo Hanoi and Russia and DeGaulle, for peace and political discussions...when we should, and had better, turn our efforts toward making friends with the saucer intelligences. You can check this... I wrote to the Philadelphia Inquirer and the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin newspapers, several weeks ago, informing them that I was here, asking for a write-up, and announcing that I would make a big rainstorm for Phila. All right. I brought the storm last Saturday and Sunday. It was very good. And I intend to bring more "freak" weather into this pinpointed Philadelphia area. I talked to two different reports at the Bulletin here, telling them that I would make the big rainstorm. New York City, and the entire New York-New Jersey area, etc., could have rainstorm after rainstorm...constant rain - with The Rainmaker working. Very truly yours, PK Man THE RAINMAKER, c/o Owens Caman Hotel, 12th & Walnut === Page 21 of 140 July 13, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Copy - Kids Dear George: I will have to admit that any Tom, Dick or Harry could write to Cape Kennedy and say, "I am going to cause lightning to strike your rockets, and make hurricanes hit your area." Then lightning does strike one of the Cape's biggest rockets, which sits on a lightning-proof pad. But - this is just a co-incidence. Could happen to anyone, or any Cape. Soon several hurricanes do hit the area of the Cape; but this, also, could be a co-incidence. Anyone could predict, "There will be a major earthquake on the West Coast within a few days -" and then when the quake actually hits Oregon and Washington, the very next day - it could be just a co-incidence. Too, anyone could write the newspapers and government agencies that he would actually cause rainstorms and blizzards and floods in vast and unprecedented amounts, as a 1964 Christmas gift for the U.S., to help alleviate the drought prevalent in the U.S. Following this prediction came the "freak" West Coast floods of Christmas, 1964, which, according to the newspapers, could not occur again in 1,000 years. This, of course, was all just a big coincidence. Then followed the barrage of some 80 tornados and near-tornadoes, plus floods, in the Midwest...then the Northwest. But what the heck, probably just a coincidence. And anyone could predict to the Government that he could make all top government officials sick and ill, and put them all in the hospital. And then, shortly thereafter, they all do collapse into the hospital, with "Executive Flu." More coincidence. However, George, I have a serious question to ask you, and Mr. Dunn, who loves for me to be "specific" in my predictions. -- When I predict specifically that the electromagnetic condition of the North and/or South Pole will be affected - and when I further predict specifically that the absolute fact of this occurrence will be reported in the newspapers - and when I further state that these two things will occur for the specific purpose of proving that I am the representative of Nature, of the vast intelligence behind Nature (which is trying to help the U.S. Govt. but cannot penetrate the Govt. thick-headedness.) - and then, George, a flying saucer makes my predictions come true...makes it happen, just that way, and I send you the clipping and my letter for proof and verification - if anyone infers that this multi-impossibility could be just a coincidence, then I am going to sit down on the floor, George, take a deep deep breath, and scream until I'm purple in the face. One last point before closing. I spent our last money today to send a wire to LBJ in Texas. After today we'll have no food, no place to stay, nothing. Nature...or the saucers...or whatever it is...isn't going to be happy about this, George. They were very unhappy when I came to Washington and saw you and Dunn, and was turned down several times. Things have gotten very rough since then, if you'll count up the catastrophes. Ironically, P K Man, and his link with Nature (saucers) is the one hope for the U.S. Government. And as my situation goes, so will go the situation of the U.S. Government and the U.S. Nature says that. As a matter of fact, everything I do, with my family, is followed by Nature (Saucers) and anyone or anything blocking us, attacking us, giving us a hard time, will be dealt with by Nature (Saucers). * For the U.S. PL 07/25/2023 15:43 === Page 22 of 140 July 14, 1965 C O P Y Inquirer Call-Bulletin - newspapers Gentlemen: Shame on you. My name is "The Rainmaker" - or "P K Man" - and two weeks ago I wrote you, and called you also, to the effect that I was in the process of making a big storm for Philadelphia, to prove my ability... so that you would give me a write up...so that I might get an opportunity to perform in the New York-New Jersey areas, and end their drought for them. So, over the weekend you had your biggest storm in six months..just as I worked for it, and called it. It made the front pages of your newspapers, and it made everyone very happy...this great, big rainstorm in the middle of a drought area. I made our weekend storm, and will make more...for I live here, and do not like hot, dry weather. Therefore Philly will be wetter and cooler than the rest of the U.S. this summer. The people here are lucky that way.* But you need to be taught a lesson. I am going to deliver some freak weather here in Philadelphia, that will teach you a lesson. Lightning displays of an unusual nature...rain-floods...near-tornado winds. Takes a few days, or weeks, to accomplish. But you'll have it, and when it comes, just remember THE RAINMAKER (P K Man), c/o Owens Congress Hotel, Phila., Pa. *As for the people residing in the Delaware River Basin, they had better relocate, because this summer they will be literally toasted alive, burned out, and water evaporated that is there. === Page 23 of 140 Lornie & Rick July 15, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA. Dear George: Well, juast as I have been predicting in my letters....the "PK" is now reaching out and eliminating top officials of the government. Actually, there have been a bunch eliminated, one way or another, these past few weeks. Stevenson, yesterday, was the biggest so far in terms of status. He will be joined shortly, however, by others of like status. The PK, or the saucers, or whatever, are going to work in ernest at this time....part of the reason, of course, is because of their representative, myself and family, being ignored and not helped along the lines the saucers have in mind. There is absolutely no way the U.S. Government, or any other government, can prevent any of this from happening...except to make friends with the saucer-intelligences the same way the U.S. would make friends with a foreign country. Try to give them what they want and need; do not make them enemies, or goad them into war. I knew two weeks ago that one of our top men in government would drop dead, as if an invisible wall had fallen onto them. But I didn't know which one...McNamara, Rusk, Johnson, Stevenson, Humphrey, etc. They are all marked by the saucer-intelligence, I suppose I should tell you, for the same thing that hit Stevenson. There is no warning. Just...that's all. Want to know a peculiar thing that has happened where I just went to work? Sunday last my boss, Mr. Hill, saw his wife have an operation at the hospital. Monday his father had a heart-attack. Tuesday our big brawny guard downstairs, Gene, had a heart-attack, and on the same day one of our top counselors collapsed on the street, reason unknown. They took him to the hospital, then took him home, where he is now. He also is an ex-football player, big and tough, name of Bill Flanagan. This same pattern happened when I worked for Gelman in Washington. Everybody in the place had to go to the doctor or the dentist, for emergency operations, etc., and one woman whom I especially disliked, Rose, had the ceiling fall on her! And this a brand new office in a brand new multi-million dollar building! I am working now, temporarily, for Diagnostic and Relocation Center, 304 Arch St., Phila., Pa. Oh, George, an important bit of information from you. My saucer friends will pass this along to you...the Viet Cong and Chinese have found a serious "Achilles Heel" of the U.S., and are preparing to strike a deadly, paralyzing blow at this glaring weakness of ours they have found. This is all they tell me, to pass on to you....to further prove their real-ness, and their pow er. Many lives could be saved, George, if the U.S. Government would heed me and my message re the saucer-intelligence. Or the "intelligence behind Nature", or whatever. They have also told me to tell you....whatever they say is never forgotten, is etched on time and place like acid on wood...and they remind you and the U.S. Govt. that for every day that their representative, P K Man (me) has to work at ordinary living, instead of for them...as per their instructions, to help them, in their way....they will eliminate a top U.S. official, or important person. I refer you to a letter quite a while back, George. By now, they stand to collect a lot of important people. 07/25/2025 15:43 === Page 24 of 140 July 16, 1965, Friday Note: Attached letter - wrote George day before Adlai dropped dead - warning them!! Dear Lornie: I enjoyed your letter. It is good to know for sure that you will get my mail, all of it. Never once, not one time, did I interfere or stop a letter from Pat to you kids...even if it meant your getting upset, as it usually did. But I figured it was more important for you to hear from your mother, than for me to have to handle a problem. And I was right. Bet you didn't dream that all those nights I spent working with PK, and clippings, were being guided and watched over by flying saucer intelligences, did you? Wow! And now, there is absolutely no doubt of it. You have the clipping about the saucer that parked over the South Pole and allowed pictures to be taken of it, and a newspaper report written about it...and knocked out the electromagnetic power in the base..........and you have my letter written earlier about this happening, although of course I didn't dream a saucer would bring it about. So, Rick was right after all. It is the saucers, and not the "intelligence behind Nature." Or, maybe they are. And that would explain our weird trip across the U.S., mostly across lonely desert and mountains, and my sleeping on top of the car at night. It explains a lot of things. For instance, who and what was Eric? Where did he disappear to? Nobody knew him; nobody could trace him after he left us. He just plain vanished into thin air, with that woman. But, they parked nose to nose with our car....moved us from broke into about $300 per week; a house, everything in the house....just in time to guide all the tornadoes! If you will remember, just after meeting Eric, I got really "hot" with PK, and began doing tremendous things with it. Still am, as a matter of fact. Back to ordinary things...the baby, Beau, is a doll. And getting bigger by leaps and bounds. And spends most of his time that way...leaping and bounding. Also, he is a little bounder, in more ways than one. But he's learning. Can't talk yet; isn't completely toilet trained yet. But boy, can he point! He absolutely captivates anyone, just anyone, passing by or on the bus or in the restaurant....because he strolls around making friends with everybody, and they light up like a light-bulb with him. Lornie, about my use of PK. You are an utter idiot to think I would ever use it on you or Rick. Of course I wouldn't. Besides, you are protected anyway, so it wouldn't do any good if I did. Which I wouldn't. At one time I liked Jim Shannon, but he alienated me. I couldn't care less now if he got in the way of a PK ripple. As for Pat...you have my absolute word that I would never harm her in any way whatsoever...and especially with PK. She has always been, and will always be, very dear to me, and one of my favorite people. We have had, and have, our differences, but this is nothing..... as far as I am concerned she is to be as protected from PK as you kids. Those people that I hit with PK, Lornie, are very rare. As you know. As a matter of fact, remember how Mangels used to insult me to my face, and make me mad...but I held back the PK. Remember? I did not use it on her. However, Lornie, I will make an exception in the case of anyone blocking me from you kids, interfering with my family, trying to hurt my loved ones, in any way. This area is a deadly area, and no trespassing is allowed. I once offered to Pat, from Dallas, to fly to Los Angeles and whip that Frank, who was bothering her...even though we were separated and had no part of one another any more. Because, I still loved her. And in a way, always will. People do not change that much. Cigars? Am very particular. There is a place in L.A. has my favorite. Will enclose their address. Love & Kisses - Daddy. === Page 25 of 140 Lonnie + Rick July 16, 1965, Friday 7/16/65 p2 Mr. George Clark, CIA. Dear George: May I refer you to my letter to you of Sunday, April 11, 1965; second paragraph: "Therefore Nature lets me know that currently it is working to create signs and wonders to impress the U.S. Government of the foolish decision it has made with regard to me, its (Nature's) representative. It lets me know that it is going to strike down, by health, accident, etc., officials of the Government until such time as the U. S. Government obeys its wishes." After this plain, crystal clear warning, George, Senator Johnston died, and Pres. Johnson attended the funereal; Adlai Stevenson just died, and Pres. Johnson attended the funereal; also many key military men have expired since April. ---------- May I refer you to my letter to you of July 9, 1965; second paragraph: "Also, in the same letter (of March 14, 1965) I predicted Pres. Johnson's family member, or close friend, would pass away or be lost, by August...and that he would cry and grieve. Well, it isn't August yet, is it." - And in the paper yesterday, George, it pointed out that Pres. Johnson cried with regard to Stevenson...had tears in his eyes, is the way they put it, I believe.... which would make my prediction a hit. You might go on and read that third paragraph: "Notice lately how government officials are falling like bowling pins? Reedy out with sore feet. General Taylor out, with sore something. Dirkson out of action, in the hospital, with sore stomach. A Congressman got smashed with a truck, not long ago - and so on. The "PK pattern" is on now and working, after a time-lag, and you can tell." ---------- Now, important, may I refer you to my letter of a few days ago, July 13, 1965, last paragraph: "One last point before closing. I spent our last money today to send a wire to LBJ in Texas. After today we'll have no food, no place to stay, nothing. Nature ...or the saucers...or whatever it is...isn't going to be happy about this, George. They were very unhappy when I came to Washington and saw you and Dunn, and was turned down several times. Things have gotten very rough since then for the U.S., if you'll count up the catastrophes. Etc." Next day, George, Stevenson was struck down....did the saucers wish to make their point on this? Yes, they most emphatically did. They are using many ways right now to try to get recognition from the U.S. Government; drought, is one. Elimination of key people in the U.S. Government is another. Constant harassing of the military and space work, is another. Sure, the U.S. Government can ignore my (and the saucer) warnings....but at what horrible cost in lives and dollars to the U.S.? PK Man 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 26 of 140 Copy - Lonnie & Rick July 19, 1965 Philadelphia Inquirer Call Bulletin Newspapers, The Editors Gentlemen: Yesterday you just enjoyed my storm which I referred to in my letter to you of July 14...just five days ago...and I quote: "I am going to deliver some freak weather here in Philadelphia, that will teach you a lesson. Lightning displays of an unusual nature...rain - floods..near tornado winds." Well, is it not so? Can you deny that yesterday you had a whopping storm? And lightning bolts struck all around Philadelphia...destroying $50,000 worth of business goods? And...the high winds blew down trees. I told you ... when it comes, to remember The Rainmaker. For your information I was in Rittenhouse Square the afternoon of Saturday, June 19, having called down the terrific storm then...and even told my wife that I would direct a lightning bolt to knock out the city power...which it did. Then I worked hard to bring in the next big rainstorm, but was not in Rittenhouse Square when it finally broke through and came down. But I was right there in Rittenhouse Square yesterday, calling down the storm, and especially the lightning, which is my trademark, you might say. Bear in mind that I could do this for New York City, in much greater volume and consistency. Notice that these two big storms....three, rather, have come on the weekends. That is because I have to work at something else during the week and cannot turn my full power and concentration on rain-making. I do not understand why you do not give me a story...so that I will have a chance, through your story, of being tried by some area in New Jersey or New York...and help those areas thereby by relief from the drought. Well, I will give Philadelphia more lightning...more wind...more rain. I like it cool, and as I say, the lightning is my trademark. THE RAINMAKER, c/o Owens Congress Hotel 12th and Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Kids...I brought in another terrific storm yesterday, standing there in the pouring rain directing the lightning to strike...had been working two days on it, just like Phoenix. Was a beaut! The clipping for it attached. Discovered a very weird thing last night...it was so hot in our rooms, I would guess 90-100, because our ventilation is poor...sweat was streaming off of me, dripping down onto my clippings. I went to bed, and put a hand on my chest, and it was as cold as ice-cubes. The area over my lungs, heart, and chest was ice-cold...the rest of me was hot and sweating. Figure that one out. Martha couldn't believe it, and neither could I. 07/25/2025 15:43 === Page 27 of 140 Copy - Lorrie + Rick July 21, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: (1) My little friends say that they will appear over one of our major U.S. cities soon, in one of their flying machines. They won't name the city, for security reasons (theirs). (2) They also state that they will begin an attack campaign on the U.S. with lightning. Lightning attacks everywhere. There will be an unusual abundance of lightning bolts striking everywhere, everything, soon. ..........the above in an effort to further prove that P K Man is their representative and that they can communicate with PK Man. Note: I told you some time ago that "they" were going to hit the U.S. with the phenomena and afflictions of Moses time. See where they are having the first occurrences of cholera since 1811 (I believe it is) in Washington, D.C. (They had like-illnesses in Moses time, in order to convince the Pharaoh.) Also, they will continue their anti-personnel work. P K MAN Lorrie - tell Rick that he made our old car the prettiest car I've ever seen on the inside. Only trouble with the car it wouldn't go + take too much money to repair it. But the inside of the car way he had it fixed, was beautiful. I was very proud of him. Dad 07/25/2025 15:42 === Page 28 of 140 Rids The day after I wrote this letter and mailed it - lightning hit the Moon Rocket pad at Cape Kennedy. Killed one, chewed up five for the hospital. Dad Wednesday, August 3, 1966 Dear President Johnson: On July 21, 1966, I wrote George Clark, CIA: "My little friends (in flying saucers; UFO's) say that they will appear over one of our major U.S. cities soon, in one of their flying machines. They won't name the city, for security reasons (theirs.)" "They also state that they will begin an attack campaign on the U.S. with lightning. Lightning attacks everywhere. There will be an unusual abundance of lightning bolts striking everywhere, everything, soon." .......... "The above in an effort to further prove that P K Man (Ted Owens, The Rainmaker) is their representative and that they can communicate with P K Man." Mr. Johnson, when I typed that letter the SI's (saucer intelligences) told me they were sending out UFO's to blanket every State in the U.S. Ready to use lightning, or any other signal I should send. Poised and ready. Today I read in the paper that last weekend they had been sighted in many States over Saturday and Sunday. Do not mistake this. They are very excited, as I am excited. For after centuries of time they have at last managed to set up an effective communication with a human being (myself). They have taken a full year of setting this whole thing up with me... as a matter of fact, until the South Pole sighting I did not know that my work had anything to do with UFO's... I thought that I was contacting the intelligence behind Nature, whatever that was. Now the SI's have given the U.S. Government proof positive, two different ways and two different times, that I am connected with them, with a two-way communication. Which I most certainly am. 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 29 of 140 8/3/65-66? P2 2 Today I got a write-up in the Bulletin newspaper here in Phila., and because this was a major aim of the 81's, it made them very happy. If you want to know the details...they were twittering and tweeting excitedly, which is the noise they make when they get excited. Because they have been made happy for a change, instead of frustrated, they will do something nice now for Philadelphia. I know...I am asking them to...especially a two-day rain in an effort to get several inches of rain here for the City in appreciation...and I think that they will also do something nice for CIA, and perhaps the U.S. Government, in exchange for this show of friendship...this story. Because this story was a key pivotal point in their plans, since I couldn't get through to official Washington. Only one thing bothers the 81's, and gives them trouble...and that is the "time" factor, because they do not know time, or use time, as we know and use it. We measure it by minutes, hours, days, weeks...but they do not. Sometimes when I send them intelligence, and do not get results in a few days, I give up...but it happens, comes about, a week or two later. Sometimes, to my utter amazement, it happens overnight. Such as the Russian spaceship Voskhod. I "hit it with PK" (i.e. sent my instructions to the UFO's) and they got it overnight, just the way I wanted them to. Such as the night I hit the West Coast with "earthquake PK" and by morning Washington-Oregon had the quake. And so on with other examples I could name. I myself do not understand the time angle. Perhaps I will. They are busily telling me things about their activities and themselves, which of course I am faithfully logging. They, and I, do not expect anyone at all to believe us on this...unless it is absolutely proven by them...and that is what I have been doing, and will continue to do. 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 30 of 140 Rick Note: By 8/16/65...8/11 Missile Sil 8/11 Los Angeles (Disaster August 3, 1965 (About 9:30 PM) MESSAGE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE..........from the Saucer Intelligences (SI'S) through The Rain Maker, Ted Owens.... we are very happy that we are able to reach the ears of human beings, after trying for long long spaces of time. This human who is talking for us, we have been teaching for a year in your time, and now he knows much...soon he will know much more. He can do much. You must listen to him carefully, and protect him, for if you lose him you lose your link with us...and it is not known how long it may be until we find another human who can receive our thoughts, and send intelligence back to us, in just his way. You do not appreciate the difficulties involved. It would be as if you were trying to teach your earth animals how to talk, and suddenly you found one who could actually converse with you...and through this one animal you had an opportunity to discover the secrets of the animal kingdom. Through us you have the opportunity to discover the secrets of space, of far away places, of advanced technology, but better still... you have the opportunity of surviving, for as a race you are utterly doomed now, as you are flying (this in their words.) Many civilizations before you have so doomed themselves, and destroyed themselves, and we were helpless to give them assistance and advice and powerful aid. Now, for the first time in long space ages, we are able, through a human's senses, to come to the aid of a good civilization and help it survive. But we can only do so if you listen, and pay attention. We are causing severe drought, with our machines in your skies, so that we can teach you a basic lesson...which is that our intelligence is far superior to that of earth intelligence. We can control earth people because we can control what you call weather. When, and not before, our earth human has been accepted by your government, and put to good use, then and only then will we release the drought conditions, and let rainfall come in abundance down onto your thirsty earth. 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 31 of 140 2 We will also add pestilence and sickness and what you call accidents; we will follow the structure of events which we used in the day of the human you know as Moses, as he strove against the ruler of the great country called Egypt. As we helped Moses in that day, so we shall help the human-friend we know now as Ted Owens, you call the Rain Maker. If it please him to think that..........of course we make the rain for him, but what is the difference? So that you people of the earth will believe this message we send to you, and we do not expect you to believe it unless we show proof...listen carefully. From now on, in time ahead, we will lift the curtain of drought for a little, and let the thirsty earth have its moisture. We will give the precious rain where it is needed...for a time. Then, lest you think that it is a perchance, we will drop the curtain once more with our machines, and let the rays of the sun penetrate the bowels of the earth and dry up your rivers, your lakes, your plants...until you accept our human as our representative. After you accept him, we have much work for him to do, for we do not speak your language, nor do we know too much, as we should, about your inner workings. It is through this human that we can learn; and it is through us, that you can learn. Even now we send the meaning of our thoughts to him, and his brain translates through pictures and feelings into your English. It is good. Beware lest you take too long to accept our human-friend, for then we must strike a hard blow at the country which spurns him...to punish your country as you would punish a child which persists in misbehaving. Already missile silos blew up; L.A. riots catastrophe After your country has accepted our link with humans, and we are able to proceed in keeping earth humans from the time-old habit of erasing themselves as civilizations, we will make your earth a wonderful place, the way it should be. We have no wish to rule you, or dictate to you... 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 32 of 140 3. XX 3, 1965 (About 9:00 PM) MESSAGE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE..........from the Rain Maker, Ted Owens..........through the Rain Maker, Ted Owens.......... we only wish, as friends, to know you, and teach you, and let you be happy. We are not of flesh and blood such as you. Our composition is that of your grasshopper, so that our bodies will compress and expand with spacework. We have not blood, but different chemicals inside ourselves. We are small, but have the ability to reverse our body-electricity at will and this gives us strength to move and carry great burdens; makes us very strong. Language difficulty makes it difficult for us to send a stream of highly technical information through our human-friend's mind for translation, since he is not a scientist, and must therefore translate as he understands. But for a beginning, it is good. Please, therefore, listen to this human-friend, and accept him, for we wish to help your country, and no other on earth...in your time of trouble, so that you may then properly help the other countries on earth. At this part of time your country has the best philosophy, the best ideas, the best advances, for helping. We can do many many things that you have no dream of, to help you. And may we ask you please be careful not to pursue our craft in your curiosity...not to attack us with your weapons, simply because we are not like yourselves. When our human-friend is in an area, please do not have planes overhead in that area, because you do not know it but we will have our own craft overhead...we have methods that make our craft so that your earth-eyes cannot see them, at times. Especially when we want it so. You ask, is there anything else, earth-friend...just that, we are happy, and excited, for you and your people, and for us. Be patient, and be careful, for we cannot risk losing our human-friend-link. That is all. === Page 33 of 140 August 6, Friday, 1965. Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: I will have an important "intelligence" tip to give you soon, which could conceivably benefit the CIA. For now, will you please get my July 21 letter, and note that I called the shot with the prediction (?) that my "little friends" would be seen over a U.S. city as a signal to you that I am for real? Also, next paragraph down, I told you that they would undertake attacks of lightning...for the same reason...to prove that I am for real...their contact man, so to speak. Well, you've had the sightings, in plenty. As for the lightning, I think the best signal they gave you was the lightning hit this week...August 4, I think it was...on the Moon Rocket pad at Cape Kennedy. So...you have your signal. Might interest you to know that I wrote Mr. Westwood at NASA (Inventions Dept.) July 7, 1965 of course, and told him in the letter that I was again, as of last year, aiming hurricanes and lightning and freak accidents at the Cape this year. Only took four weeks for lightning to chew up the Moon Rocket pad. Not bad, eh? As for up here...I wrote President Johnson August 2, 1965 (this week) and told him: "They (the UFO's) will do something nice now for Philadelphia. I know...I am asking them to..especially a two-day rain in an effort to get several inches of rain here for the City in appreciation..." The very next day, George, they got their 2½ inches of rain all in a bundle. Did them quite a bit of good. Now, for your amusement, and because you've been so good to listen to me for so long...I will let you in on something. Am calling fleets of UFO's here, to Philadelphia...from everywhere. Trouble is I do not know what they can do to prove to these people here that I'm for real...but I will think of something. Believe they are here already, because I sent for them this afternoon. With all that power, whatever kind it is that they have...and it seems to be miraculous, judging from what they've accomplished this past year, they should do something startling. I'm trying to convey the idea to them of coming right down over the city and hovering. They give me the idea back that we might have some kind of rays like they have, or whatever it is they have...and hurt them or something...so that they are reticent to do this. So I am trying to tell them we have no such thing, and it's safe. I want to bring one down right over Market Street and have it hover there for 20 minutes. What else they'll do on their own is anybody's guess - 3 DAYS LATER GOT MY BIG STORM!! Also, have asked them to send rain out to the U.S. for 2-3 weeks, before starting drought conditions again. Am sure that they will. Incidentally, last week I warned you that something terrible some terrible blow would be struck at the U.S. soon...and I believe that it was the === Page 34 of 140 August 6, Friday, 1965 Copy - Lorne & Rick 8/6/65 P1 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: I will have an important "intelligence" tip to give you soon, which could conceivably benefit the CIA.

All those 250 lb. bombs being unloaded there, where the new U.S. Military Headquarters is being set up...and on top of our allies...that is very very bad. A real blow. And the way it was done, is certainly in the pattern of all the rest of this phenomena. Why, when the other bomber made eight passes at it, with all its guns blazing, couldn't it shoot it down, or set off the bombs in it? Then there was the wind...ah yes, the wind...like the rain that put out the Fire Bombing attempt. The wind turned the plane around and took it right onto target. I tell you, George, there is much more to this than meets the eye. Don't you agree? Remember the other two times I warned you that the U.S. would be struck blows, in a similar way...and then in quick order, after each prediction, the U.S. Embassy was blown up...and the Bien something airfield was set off when the bomber exploded there and blew up other planes and everything, accidentally. But there is something nice...because conditions have just recently been good to me here, and I have had a bit of a chance to get my UFO status at least a tiny bit out into the open...the stock market is already improving, as I told you it would a while back (last month, wasn't it?) Sure do wish this was a two-way communication. Wish CIA ... oh, well, keep observing, George, and you will see some very strange things happen yet. PK Man (The Rain Maker) Ted Owens === Page 36 of 140 Monday, August 9, 1965 Letters To The Editor Dear Sir: I would appreciate an opportunity to answer Mr. Rosenberg, of Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and Mrs. H. S., of Langhorne, Pa., who placed articles re my rainmaking in your newspaper this evening. WELL-WRITTEN First, Mr. Rosenberg...Mr. Darling, of the Bulletin, is a very intelligent man, and knows that a memory system is simply a memory system, nothing more. I even explained to him at the time of the interview that I learned my memory system from Roth's book. If he should like to take it up. Actually, the demonstration proved only that visual imagery works in this fashion; I am sorrowfully afraid, Mr. Rosenberg, that no matter how I performed a memory system, it would not make me look like a genius, a mind reader or a mystic, for I am certainly none of these things, and did not try to impress the veteran feature writer in that regard (for he has been long a pro at seeing through ruses such as you mention.) You should have been listening to Radio Station WCAU last Wednesday evening. For four hours I endeavored to explain the why's and wherefore's of my modus operandi of making it rain. That was the Jack McKinney Show. And then again today, on Mr. Ed Harvey's Radio Show, WCAU, I went further into the matter. The trick memory system has absolutely nothing to do with it, Mr. Rosenberg. If you would be a good reporter, first get your facts straight. FURTHERMORE, ON LOOKING AT YOUR LIST, I SHOULD LIKE TO STATE UNEQUIVOCABLY THAT MY BASKET WAS NOT SITTING IN YOUR PUDDLE, SIR!! Now Mrs. H. S., after I got through howling at your rainmaking methods, the thought occurred to me...when and if I ever get a session with my wife, and it rains...I hope sincerely that she has the priceless sense of humor that you have. A sense of humor in a wife is worth more than diamonds, rubies and pearls. LIKE YOURSELF In closing, may I point out that the only good rain that Philadelphia has had these past weeks was last Wednesday night, when I went on the air at WCAU to deliver my message re UFO's, and today, when I again went on the air at WCAU. It is a fact that I told Mr. Ed Harvey last Friday that I would do my best to deliver an excellent rain on Monday (today). I believe that this is exactly what has occurred. Station WCAU Anyone interested in my rainmaking work can write to me at the Congress Hotel here in Philadelphia, and I will answer every sincere letter. Ted Owens "THE RAINMAKER" c/o Congress Hotel 1336 Walnut Philadelphia, Pennsylvania P.S. I deliberately brought in storms on both days of my radio broadcasts...therefore Philadelphia owes its present rain to Mr. Darling at the Bulletin; Jack McKinney and Tom Spence, of WCAU; and Mr. Ed Harvey, of the Ed Harvey Show, WCAU. === Page 37 of 140 8/10/65 The Editor Evening Bulletin Tuesday, August 10, 1965 Dear Sir: Something for you to print, of an unusual nature, if you would like it. This is a recap for the past week for my friends in Philadelphia, of the excitement in the air, with the Rain Maker, straight from the Rain Maker. Last Wednesday Jack McKinney had me on his show at WCAU, and we fought like cats and dogs, in a very friendly way, over rain-making and UFO's. For four hours, which is a long time. Mr. McKinny (a fine man, by the way, even if he does not believe in UFO's, ha ha) sought to pin down the facts on my rain-making, and especially since it is connected with the workings of flying-saucers. For help (as if he needed any) he had Tom Spence, who helped me finish my sentences and dot my i's. Of course, I had already made several storms over Philadelphia...and written well ahead of time to the papers here that I was making them, (see the Bulletin story.) And, before the show, I had worked on a storm to dramatize my appearance on his show. It began at the beginning of the evening show, and did Philadelphia a bit of good, water-wise. Then, on Friday, Mr. Ed Harvey called me and asked me to appear on his show the following Monday, at WCAU, and he specifically asked me to make it storm that day (yesterday) Monday. I told him that I would do my best. So, all week-end, I worked for a storm, but in an unusual way, for me. I had to time the storm to hit Monday, instead of Sunday, which is my favorite storm day next to Saturday. The storm-materials were all present and accounted for on Sunday, and I fought to hold them in check. Then, on Monday, I released them. It rained a bit in the afternoon, and I went on the Ed Harvey Show. Now, listen carefully...on the show I told Mr. Harvey === Page 38 of 140 8/10/65 p2 2 that my storms feature lightning..........remember in my Bulletin story, where I said my specialty was lightning? Also, I pointed out to him that on another occasion here in Philadelphia I had endeavored to "aim" lightning at a radio tower downtown, in Center City. Also I aimed lightning at any power-stations in the area, as an experiment. Remember this. I also pointed out to Mr. Harvey that the rule, for my storms, is that they literally cause disaster-areas. They are violent, full of lightning attacks, and flood. Mr. Harvey jokingly asked me not to flood Philadelphia. So after the show, I went home to my apartment. And it rained, hard. It came down in sheets. But one thing was missing..........lightning. So I told my wife that I would add the missing ingredient, and went out onto a balcony outside my apartment, and worked for lightning, lots of it. The results were better than I hoped for. The next rainfall, after an interval, carried lightning with it..........lots of it. And, mark this, next morning I read in the paper that lightning had hit a tower, not here but in New Jersey, and knocked out the power for the police. Also it hit a power-supply, and knocked out the power for many many houses. Just as I had mentioned it in the afternoon..........as if my little UFO friends had been listening and decided to include it. Fantastic? It happened, just that way. Now I have another assignment to carry out for Mr. Harvey. Keep the sky clear of rain Thursday night, for his ball-game. And for Mr. Harvey, it is a downright pleasure. Before closing, would like to point out that on the Jack McKinney show I told the audience that rain would suddenly appear all over the United States === Page 39 of 140 8/10/65 p3 3 as a signal from the UFO's that they are listening, and are in action. Have you looked at your weather maps lately? That is precisely what has occurred. But in the near future I do not think that the East Coast will benefit too much, re drought-relief. They will need the services of a rain-maker; namely, me. And anyone wanting to rent my unique services can write to me care of your paper. For that matter, anyone wanting to write me a personal letter can do that; and I will also be glad to send my message from the UFO's to the American people...the one that Jack McKinney read on his program...to any of your readers who wish it. Sincerely, Ted Owens "THE RAIN MAKER" === Page 40 of 140 Tuesday, August 10, 1965 Dear Lornie, and Rick... I enjoyed your letter, Rick my boy. Don't worry, son, can you remember a time when your daddy keep punching? That'll be the day. All hell is breaking loose in Philadelphia...as a matter of fact, I almost ruined Philadelphia last night. Remember how you and I used to stand out in the yard in Phoenix, and bring on those gangbusters? Well, I brought one on in style, and the results are enclosed, in clippings. You'll be proud, and you'll remember Phoenix...and Los Angeles...etc etc. The beauty of it was...Ed Harvey, who has the radio show for CBS here called "Talk of Philadelphia"...called me last Friday and asked me to make a storm tailor-made for this Monday, the day I was to appear on his program, so that he could be telling about it over the weekend. I told him that I would, and set to work. The weather was hot and clear, then. I worked like the dickens Saturday and Sunday...throwing a lot of oomph into it, but also working to hold it back until Monday, so that it wouldn't bust loose Sunday. I'll enclose a copy of letter to the paper here which am sending in, and it tells you the rest, to save wear and tear on my fingers. The point is, at last, kids, at last, people "out there" are beginning to find out what you have known all along. That I can control storms (have made, and written into the papers well in advance, five good storms now) and perhaps other things as well. Also, and more important, Jack McKinny, on that 4-hour brain-buster last Wednesday, I forced into reading a message from the UFO's to the American people. Now, my storm-work of course carries a lot of weight...and I am positive that the message will get across. Am enclosing a copy. Am absent-minded, you know, and don't remember whether I did before or not. Listen, kids, all those "units" and things were a sort of vocabulary that the UFO's were giving me...it was their way of understanding...so when I would put something into a PK bubble 07/25/2025 16:36 === Page 41 of 140 8-10-65 p2 2 put satellites (rain or sun, etc.) over it, and throw so many black, or red "units" at it...etc., they could understand this, and rapidly acted. And how they acted, as you well know. The next logical thing now is for someone to hire me to break the drought for New York...or Philadelphia...or the entire East Coast, which would be as easy, as you know. Following the breaking of the drought will be even bigger things, the little "voice" seeps through to me, like osmosis. You were right, one of you, I can't remember which, when you told me that you thought there was something even bigger ahead than my PK discoveries. You were so...right. Nice thing about it is, I was so bored, just causing storms, bringing down airplanes, lousing up military operations, making earthquakes with Emmy-Emma (Rick's brainchild.) Now things are moving, at last. Funny that the Air Force, the CIA, the US Govt., and the Rhines haven't been jumping up and down to get hold of me. They have my letter-file, calling dozens of big events in advance, in detail. I really do not understand it. The US Government probably doesn't want to be forced by the UFO'S to pay attention...Johnson, especially. But they are dealing with UFO'S, a far greater power than any other existing on this earth. God help them if they delay too much longer. I warned them weeks ago that a terrible blow would be struck at the US Government if they didn't pay attention; and within a week the bomber in Viet Nam turned around, with nobody in it, and flew back and crashed, with all its bombs, on U S Military Headquarters in their allied city, Nan Trang, or something like that. Then today one of their missile silos "accidentally" blew up. They are so dense and stupid. But enough of that. Write often, if you can. Lornie, honey, I like those 15¢ Optimos. They are good cigars. Or those Pats that come 7 in a pack. Love & kisses - Daddy PK Man === Page 42 of 140 Wednesday, August 11, 1965 President Johnson, The White House. Dear Mr. President: This letter is of the utmost importance to you. Please find attached copy of letter I sent to you almost a year ago. Also State Dept. and other Govt. agencies. A more prophetic "intelligence report" you will never find. The missile silo that just blew up, or whatever happened to it...see paragraph marked in red. This is further emphasized at this particularly peculiar time because of the "rain making" work that I am doing in Philadelphia, predicting rainstorms in advance and then bringing them in on schedule, or as close to schedule as possible. So far I have not missed, and would be surprised if I did. Monday's storm in Philadelphia was made by myself, and the lightning attacks co-incide with other letters which you should have in your file, of weeks ago, when the UFO's said they would provide lightning attacks to prove my connection with them. At the time this letter was written, almost a year ago, I believed that I was in contact with the intelligence behind Nature; only lately have I found out that I am in contact with UFO's, as proved by the UFO sighting over the South Pole, and my earlier letter before that, predicting the event in detail sans UFO. Therefore I believe at this time the UFO's are, at a year's interval, warning the people of the U.S. once more...re my "Message to the American people from the UFO's" as read over the radio from Station WCAU last Wednesday, August 4, 1965, on the Jack McKinney Show. Note that in my letter of last year states: "Or else Nature will chastise the erring country with catastrophe after catastrophe. Earthquake, fire, famine, flood, sickness. Nature will select the proper catastrophes to bring the unbelieving country to its knees." This sentence should make great sense to you...because since 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 43 of 140 8/11/65 p2 2 this letter was written, and sent to you, you have spent a great deal of time travelling about, inspecting disaster areas...catastrophe after catastrophe, as my letter warned. I would venture to state that never, in the entire history of the United States, has there been a year so filled with natural catastrophes as July, 1964, to July, 1965. To name just a few catastrophes...and areas...the disastrous fires on the California Coast; the disastrous floods last Christmas on the California Coast; the giant earthquake in Oregon-Washington; the horrendous damage from Hurricane Cleo, Hurricane Dora, Hurricane Isbell, Hurricane Hilda; crippling floods in North/South Carolina; disastrous floods in the Midwest States; unprecedented tornado attacks in the Midwest; and so on and so on for a long long list. You will note that I state on the first page of last year's letter: "...the aforementioned 'catastrophes' are merely a sample of what lies ahead." This was correct, absolutely. In closing, the UFO's have instructed me to point out that the paragraph of last year's letter which refers to causing missiles to explode in their silos, is now referred to for a reason all their own. (Not mine.) They caused the missile silo tragedy, in order to direct my attention back to this letter, in order for me to write you another letter, one year later...pointing out that this particular paragraph states that it is extremely important that the reason for my "PK" ability be understood by all. The reason. The causal-factor, as Mr. Dunn of your CIA put it to me. And that is...UFO's. Respectfully, Ted Owens (P K Man - Rain Maker) Congress Hotel 1336 Walnut Philadelphia, Pa. 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 44 of 140 8/12/65 Thursday, Aug. 12, '65 -- Lonnie and Rick Dear pals: Time to sit down now and fill you in on all the excitement. You read the Bulletin story on The Rain Maker. Philadelphia has had only 7 rains since the 1st of June -- and I made all 7. Before each one, usually a week, I wrote the papers and told them it was coming. So I was invited to be on the famous (around here) Jack McKinney "Night Show." I was supposed to be on one hour. After me came a U.S. Senator. After him, Jack Carter, the comedian so much on Ed Sullivan's show. All McKinney knew was I claimed to be a rain-maker. PK Man, he'd never met. He met PK Man 5 minutes after the show started. I laid out my files in front of the battery of mikes and started to work. (I'd been cued in advance by the 'Sir' what to do.) The hour flew by. McKinney and Spence, a man he'd brought in to help attack me -- were sweating blood, and getting nowhere. They'd prepared a perfect case for attacking mere rain-making, but the PK and all I'd done with it -- plus UFO's, were sinking them rapidly. So McKinney, on a station break -- told Spence to call the Senator and Carter at his hotel, and cancel them out. "Boy, I've made two enemies tonight!" he told me, gritting his teeth. The second hour they got a bright idea. They'd call one of my letter-file contacts, unexpectedly, long-distance, to verify my claims that all these impossible === Page 45 of 140 8/12/65 p2 Things had been predicted in advance by me - or caused by me. They asked me, real sneakily, which to call? CIA? NASA? Lonie? Cayce? Mangels? I recommended Cayce, on the terrific double-prediction on Pres. Johnson, 3 months in advance. Aha! Said McKrinny - he must be your co-hort. So we'll call Mangels, that all right? Sure be my guest I told him. So they got hold of Jean - she came through loud & clear. "Miss Mangels," asked McKrinny, "is it true Ted Owens predicted there would be a major earthquake on the West Coast within just a few days - and it happened the next day?" "Yes," said Jeanne, "he did. He absolutely did." McKrinny & Spence frowned, their eyes bulged, and they stared at me unbelievably. "Well" says Mac, "he says he caused the earthquake. Do you believe that?" "No," she answers, "I won't go along with that. I don't think so." "Uh huh" says Mac. "Now did he make any other predictions to you that came true." "Yes," she said, "he did." "How many of his predictions came true?" "I would say four out of five." They thanked her - forgot her - and went ahead with the program. Half an hour later they were to be === Page 46 of 140 8/12/05 p3 by the Control Room that she was still hooked up long distance and was listening to the show over the phone!! Ha ha ha!! Anyway - on the way over to the radio station that Wed. evening the skies were clear. I sent signals to the UFO's desperately to make it rain, fast - to coincide with my program appearance. Half hour later, as I was walking up to the door of the studio, rain began to pour down. During the program people call up, put themselves on the air, and ask questions. I had to answer them. It was great fun. It lasted four hours. And rain soaked the town. It was a nice, quiet downpour. Steady rain all night. Two days later, Friday, I got a call from Ed Harvey, another famous radio personality here with "Talk of Philadelphia" program. He wanted me to be on his program on Monday, Aug. 9. Also, he wanted me to make a storm for Monday - so he could advertise it in advance. (Friday was a smashing, clear day.) I told him I would bring in a rainstorm on Monday + appear on the show. He was nice on the program. Asked me why on earth the Govt. didn't use my services. Why New York didn't hire me. (Oh, it was raining by now lightly, outside.) He told the audience, looking me straight in the eye, "Ted there is no doubt whatever in my mind that you could break the drought on the East Coast." He asked a === Page 47 of 140 8/12/65 p4 personal favor. He was going to an important baseball game Thursday night - could I keep it nice, clear, & no rain that night? (It was raining outside when he asked this.) I assured him I would take the rain away from Phila. for that night. Now during the program, I discussed how I "aimed" lightning - had aimed at two Phila. targets in earlier storms, a radio tower and the power-supply of the city. I'd actually managed to hit the power supply of the city! And I told how I liked lightning - my storms had my "lightning trademark" - it is my specialty. I went home then it began to come down in solid sheets. But no lightning. "Hell!" I told Martha, taking a drink of cold beer, "that's a good storm, but I've got to put more lightning in it!" So I went outside and signalled the UFO's (I have an all-new system now) and told them lightning - lots of lightning. Suddenly there were some lightning flashes and I knew they'd heard me. Took me four or five attempts to get it over to them, though - and each time I'd begin again, the heavy rain would stop. When I'd finish signalling the rain would start up again. It was weird. Like they'd stop the rain temporarily - to find out if I was wanting something else instead. === Page 48 of 140 8/12/65 p5 "Ted," Martha called from inside the window, "why is it the rain stops each time you begin to signal?" Yep. Even she noticed it. (But the day was full of surprises. On the radio show I had told Ed Harvey that every area I had hit with PK had become an official disaster area. He'd laughed and asked me for Heaven's sake not to flood Philly.) Well. After an hour the storm stopped, and I left to go to the YMCA to type some letters. When I came out of the Y, all hell broke loose. You've seen some of my little beauties - knocking out Boggio's windows, lightning bolts hitting our house etc. This storm was a giant compared to those midgets you saw. Rain was driving down so hard you couldn't see. Cars were stalled in the street. Bolts of lightning were hitting in every direction. It was majestic. It was a regular symphony of a storm. (Days before I had told Martha I wanted Monday's storm to hit Philly - pow! and tear it up! Chew it up! Rain so thick you couldn't see a foot away. Lightning everywhere.) In every detail - this was the storm. You read the paper's description of it, but they couldn't do it justice. New York City got a billion gallons of rain-water from this Philly flood (yes, it flooded.) When I brought === Page 49 of 140 8/12/65 p6 6) the storm here, all areas around benefitted from it. okay. Tuesday came. Dozens of different homes had been hit by bolts of lightning. One lightning bolt came inside a man's kitchen while he was cooking supper, and hit his stove. Lightning hit a police radio tower. A bolt hit the Willow Grove (suburb) power supply and knocked out the power. A bolt hit a hospital. And so on. Nobody was hurt. Tuesday there were black clouds in the sky. I knew the UFO's had plenty of materials if I wanted more. But I didn't. I wanted it clear. I signalled them strongly to hold off all rain*. Tuesday passed - a dark, cloudy day just wanting to rain. But it didn't. Wednesday came. Dark boiling clouds overhead. Papers said 6 chances in 10 of rain. I signalled no rain. There was no rain. Today, Thursday, all clouds were gone. Sunny & clear. So Ed Harvey is happy tonight at his ball game. (But Philly could have had two more fine storms. A pity) However, I'm choking off rain out here now with the PK bubble with sun cats, plus other mechanisms. If they want rain now - they play ball with the UFO's. If they don't play ball - there'll be no water. No offers yet. Write Love & kisses, Dad. * Told them to swing the rain west & dump it there. === Page 50 of 140 Friday, August 13, 1965 Mr. George Clark CIA Dear George: Herein is, I believe, a workable plan to force the Viet Cong in Viet Nam to surrender within two weeks time. They would have to. What is necessary for the satisfactory completion of this surrender is a disaster which will sweep the entire length and breadth of Viet Nam North and South. Repairs can be made later. They will have to be made at any rate after the war is over under ordinary circumstances. Leaflets will be dropped over North Viet Nam that all peoples must vacate Viet Nam completely within two weeks. If they surrender to the U.S. and South Vietnamese, then they will be helped to leave peninsula. If they do not surrender, they will have to vacate the peninsula themselves under their own power. Explain that tremendous tidal waves, caused by the U.S. Govt., will come sweeping over the land at the end of two weeks carrying everything before it. Meanwhile, a gigantic, first-time-in-history evacuation on such a large scale would have to take place, getting U.S. personnel and South Vietnamese off the peninsula. The U.S. would indeed cause giant tidal waves to sweep over the peninsula... by exploding nuclear devices close enough to cause the waves to sweep the island but far enough away so that the land would not be rendered poisoned by the devices. (I assume that there is a way this could be done: being an amateur, and not a scientist, I would have to pass on the details of the operation. All I can donate is the bare idea.) The effect: Giant waves of water would flood the peninsula. Of course houses and cities would be wrecked. It would not be possible should not be for any human to survive the flooding. Therefore, after this was over, with U.S. ships patrolling the waters to prevent VC from returning... and the VC who have surrendered already in U.S. hands - then the Vietnamese people themselves would be returned to their homeland sans VC, and their homes rebuilt and cities repaired. At that time tough controls could be instituted to prevent the VC among the "Vietnamese people" who have returned... from starting anything again. But what would they start it with? All weapons would have been rounded up before the mass evacuation... and those weapons hidden would be ruined by the floods. We would, in effect, be erasing an incorrect formula upon the blackboard (Viet Nam) and then writing upon the board the correct answer. Respectfully, Ted Owens P K Man - The Rain Maker. === Page 51 of 140 Monday, Aug. 16, 1965 P.S. Share the enclosed letters + info with Lonnie. Be sure to. Dear Rick Congratulations on your fine PK work. But, what you were doing was using the special PK symbols given me by the UFO's, to call in UFO's, to make the lightning strike + the rain. Honey, haven't you + Lonnie been getting my big, fat letters, with copies of letters to Pres. Johnson, George Clark, etc? Saturday, at 2:30 P.M., I gave a demonstration here to a Tom Wieder (writer) who had asked for an interview, of how to cause a great natural disaster. I told him in South America, drew a map of it -- and set it to happen within days. (I used "Emma-Emma") -- and Sunday a giant series of storms tore up Chile, wrecking 40% of their farms, striking ships, causing huge avalanches. The President, Frei, declared it a disaster area (as usual.) Martha was with me at the time. We were in a restaurant. Took me 2 minutes to do it. Have you considered -- L.A. riots, "mass madness" the papers called it -- L.A. county declared a disaster area -- and "Electra" has been growing!! (Diego + Freco, remember?) May I give you some kindly advice, son? There is an ancient saying in the Bible, "Do not cast your pearls before swine." I. e., do not waste your talent and ability on people who do not appreciate it, or who try to cut you down to their little size. Do not put on demonstrations for anyone who happens to make fun of you, or challenge you. You are wasting valuable time + effort. Even if you do what you say, they'll pooh pooh it or try to brainwash you. It's been tried on me. (Has Jim run down the street naked yet?) 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 52 of 140 8-16-65 p2 Speaking of Jim - I think a warning is in order. Remind him of how (check with Lorrie) a man who crossed me in Texas - who dropped dead mysteriously of a cerebral hemorrhage. Remind him of Mrs. Mangels, who laughed at me and said I was "drinking too much coffee." Then her brother dropped dead; her son's lung collapsed; a negro broke into her daughter's home at night; and a gang beat up Mrs. Mangels. Remind him of Rose, at Gelman's office, who gave me a hard time - and part of the office ceiling fell on top of her. Etc etc. And there were people I didn't hit with PK!! Let Lorrie tell of how I hit all govt. officials before the inauguration to hospitalize them - and did!!! Jim had better be very very quiet. He is in way over his depth. He's like a man, laughing at the pretty kitty-cats surrounding him. And the "pretty kitty-cats" are huge, ferocious tigers!! But then - Jim could "never take Ted seriously." I wouldn't talk PK or UFO's to Pat or Jim, Rick. That's a different world, and they aren't in that world. Sure we are partners, son. But I cannot send by mail the tremendous, great secrets that I have now accumulated in a new book - given me by the Si's. If you had stayed with me, you'd have grown with me, in all my UFO work. But separated - you'll have to use what I taught you until we get together === Page 53 of 140 8-16-65 p3 again, some day. If we ever do. Getting proof, over & over again, that I'm linked with the UFO's, is something I never expected. But it explains everything. Get Lorrie to describe the beautiful UFO that was near us, one night, in Texas. Now - I am causing terrible drought for the purpose that you mention. But read the message from the UFO's to the American people, again. For a time, they will sprinkle rain all over the US, not to end the drought, but to show what they can do. When they've done it, they'll drop the total drought curtain again, and look out!! I congratulate you deeply, son, on that lightning hit on the trees! That is better than what I've done - except my Cape Kennedy Titan & moon rocket pad hits. But that wasn't close up, like yours! All right - we'll team work. Every day there's a weather map in the papers, showing rain over the US. We'll work to keep the map - total US - clear of rain. No precipitation. When the right time comes - and it will - we'll make it rain, at certain places in the US, and we'll call our shots. I need those clippings. This one of lightning strikes is another good clip for my files. Thanks. My price is right. Pres. Johnson is spending 100 million dollars to try to break the drought, his way. Love, Dad P.S. Write on paper like this. === Page 54 of 140 Monday, Aug. 16, 1965 Dear Lorrie -- Thanks for your letter. Yes, things have been popping. Cyclical. They fade, then get bigger -- fade, then get even bigger, etc. Have you gotten my letters -- stuffed with copies of letters to George, Pres. Johnson, etc.? You know what? After I called shot after shot after shot here -- even convincing the hard-boiled newspaper veteran reporter, then prep'd a storm for "The Talk of Philadelphia" show (once a week show with current important personality in Philly on it, interviewed) -- and nearly wrecked Philly with the storm (scores of lightning hits, floods, etc -- you saw the news clips?) -- suddenly, snap! like that an iron curtain came down. Must be Air Force pressure of some kind, since UFO's are in it. The orange glow was a UFO, you can bet on it. Tell them about the beauty that was close to our car in the field, that night in Texas. And the window-tape and the green eyes -- at 310 Hemphill. And the doctor I hypnotized & sent his mind to contact UFO's. My contact with the Si's couldn't get any better honey. With the system they've given me I can "see" them and communicate with them, and they with me -- directly. In seconds. Only thing remaining is to get to a faraway, isolated spot, where they will come down and meet me. Last night, Sunday a news report came over the radio. In Brazil, Sunday, a tiny man 28 inches high walked up to a fisherman's hut and said, in English (?) he === Page 55 of 140 8/16/65 p2 from a flying saucer, and wanted to offer proof. He gave the fisherman a piece of metal which he said was not of this earth. Brazilian scientists are now examining the metal. This came over a radio news broadcast. Today there was nothing in the papers. I got 'em all -- even N.Y. papers. Which shows you how the U.S. Govt. controls our so-called "freedom of the press!" And how quickly they shut up, and drop an "iron curtain" around anyone or anything connected with UFO's. Why, I wonder? Be careful there, you + Rick both. These race riots are deadly -- and remember, you are in "Electra." Sure, I have protection over you -- but you wouldn't jump off a high building to test it, would you. Don't tempt Fate! Your school subjects sound interesting. You'll do better in French than I did -- I flunked it. Algebra? $2+2=5$. That's my math. Fortunately, honey, you + Rick have academic brains yo're pappy ain't got. Do sump'n with those brains! Hm?? Love, Dad. 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 56 of 140 Wednesday August 18, 1965 Editor Philadelphia Daily News Dear Sir: Here is an interesting item, if you would like to print it. . . . In your story "Blonde Gets Black Eye As 'Thing' Attacks Car", in your paper 8/17/65, the mother of the girl who was attacked. . . and they were both in the car during the attack by the 7-foot, 400 lb. "monster". . . has the name of Rose Owens (I refer you to the clipping.) The girl who was attacked, then, was named Owens before her marriage. A strange coincidence. The Wednesday previously I appeared on The Jack McKinny Show, Station WCAU, here in Philadelphia, and Mr. McKinny was kind enough to read a 3-page letter, or message, given to me by the UFO intelligences to pass on to the American people. So what? What is the coincidence? My name is Ted Owens, and "The Rain Maker." Why not ask your readers if they would like to read this strange message from the UFO's? I will enclose a copy then, and if readers contact your paper, asking for it, if you wish you can print it. I offered it to the Bulletin for printing, but they have evidently decided not to do so, for whatever reasons. The "monster" in your story, above, could be connected with the UFO's. . . note that the womens' car stalled, which is an a usual occurrence when a UFO is near. Kills the power. Owens === Page 57 of 140 8/18/65 p2 (Exact copy of story which appeared in The Philadelphia Daily News, 8/17/65) "BLONDE GETS BLACK EYE AS 'THING' ATTACKS CAR" Monroe, Michigan (UPI) What weighs more than 400 pounds, smells moldy, growls like a mad dog, and dislikes automobiles? Answer X - The Monroe County Monster. That was the latest on the "thing" that has been sighted here and there in Monroe County during the past two months by at least 16 persons, including Christine Van Acker, 17-year old blonde. Miss Van Acker, who goes to a beautician school here, has a black eye she said was inflicted by the monster Friday night. State police were checking her story and patrolling the area at night northeast of this southern Michigan City. Miss Van Acker gave this story of the encounter: "I was driving mother, Mrs. Rose Owens, home. Suddenly there was this bump and a hairy arm grabbed me by the hair. It wasn't human or anything. I tried to go faster but the car stalled." The girl fainted. Mrs. Owens, who jumped out of the car and ran for help, described the ordeal like this: "The first I knew there was this bang and an arm came through the window.; Christine yelled, 'Mommy, help me! Oh my God, help!' "I told her to get the car going...but it stalled. The monster had his paw entwined in her hair and kept banging her head on the side of the car. I decided the best thing to do was go for help." "When I got back with other people, Christine was semi-conscious, and the monster was gone." "The monster was at least seven feet tall, weighed about 400 pounds, and it had a long reach. It was all covered with black, bristly hair, towards the end of the hair it was silver. You couldn't see its face, there was so much hair." "And it growled. It had a real growl, and definitely it was not a bear." Christine said she was sure it was not a bear "because bears have fur and this thing had prickly hair like thorns" She also said she was sure it was not a prankster "because nobody human would do anything like that." The monster sightings have occurred in Frenchtown and Ashe townships within the last 60 days. One man reported the monster climbed onto his car, and thumped on the roof and fenders before disappearing into the woods. A woman reported she saw the monster and it smelled moldy. Etc. === Page 58 of 140 Copy - Lonnie + Rick Thursday, August 19, 1965 Mr. George Eastwood, Inventions NASA Dear George: The Gemini weather trouble...complete with lightning...guess who? You might warn, George, Nasa that this is no time to be sending up a Gemini crew. Consider the number of quick catastrophes the U.S. has had lately: Missile silo explosion. Los Angeles race riots. Bomber that flew the wrong way in Viet Nam and bombed our new Military Headquarters, in an allied village. Loss of face in the world from backing down from the Russians "no pay" in the U.N. (A geo-political tragedy.) ..........all within the past few weeks. Any gambler will tell you, quit gambling when you hit a bad streak, or losing streak, or things are going against you. That is not the time to pull out a new bankroll in the game. And that is what Nasa is doing right now. If anything goes wrong with this Gemini shoot, it will just add to the recent string of catastrophes. My advice, and 10¢, will buy a cup of coffee, George. But there it is, for what it is worth. Ted Owens - P K Man - The Rain Maker 1114 Spruce, #33 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Friday morning, at 9 PM, Dave, a psychologist where I work, asked, "Well, ESP man, what's your prediction about the Gemini shot at noon today?" (Friday) I told him, "I'll bet you $10 to $1, ten to one odds, that the Gemini shot will fail." - Came noon, and lightning (mine) did the shot in. They tried again today, idiots!

UFO's told me what to say. === Page 59 of 140 Copy - Rick Thursday, August 19, 1965 Editor, The Philadelphia Bulletin Newspaper 30th and Market Phila., Pa. Dear Sir: Enclosed find a letter from my son, addressed to you and the Bulletin. He didn't know what the name of the people were, or the correct name of the paper. Since I brought practically all of the last six weeks of rain into Philadelphia...and the only thanks I got was from a 16 year-old boy, in a letter to Station WCAU...I thought it only fitting that you see my son's letter, and perhaps publish it in your letters column as an answer to my detractors' letters of attack, which my son refers to. My boy knows what he is talking about...for he has seen daddy perform some incredible feats in the weather-control line. I am proud of him for defending me, at any rate. That's my boy. Sincerely, Ted Owens, "The Rain Maker", 1114 Spruce, Phila., Pa. === Page 60 of 140 8-19-65 p2 (Letter from Rick Owens, 14-year old son of P K Man, "The Rain Maker" (Ted Owens) as sent to The Bulletin from Inglewood, California.) "Dear People of the Bulletin: "A few days ago you had some write-ups on the "Rain Maker." Claiming he was a "phony." I am his son, Rick Owens, and I know that out of all his work with rainmaking, he has missed only once, and he has worked a thousand times and produced record storms for that particular city, and for proof he'll be very glad to show you his "newspaper clippings" about it, which gives definite proof. I wish you would print just this small paragraph on what I'm going to say. "Truth About Rain Maker!" A new era, whether people like it or not, has been discovered. You can shut this fear out, if you like, but someday somebody will have to discover it. H. T. Owens, the Rain Maker, is a genius, and he could have become a scientist. Right now he is trying to help bring out this new discovery that is far advanced than just Indian Rainmaking. In a recent clipping a man who was called Barry Rosenburg called him a phony, but this Rosenburg hasn't seen all of the things, thousands of things, he has done in a lot of years, and so had no right to jump to his own ignorant conclusions. Dr. Rhine will state Owens power - Owens's ESP. H. T. Owens personally worked under Rhine. I admit $10,000 is a lot to ask, and disagree that he should ask this much, but think what we could do with a man with his powers. Just think before you lynch him up. Rick Owens c/o Shannon 505 S.

Then they could have brought the craft down...and whether the astronauts would have survived is most debatable. Instead, they did something you, personally, could best understand. Politics. Live and let live. You help them, they help you. They turned the power back on. Check with your experts, they tell me to tell you...there is no way that the power could have been restored, as things stood Sunday...unless they, the UFO's had intervened. They have no wish to kill astronauts...to wreck our vehicles...to make us lose face in the world. Their only wish has been expressed to you before, by me, in a long letter.

WA 5-3909 (Mon.-Fri., 9-4:15) === Page 64 of 140 Copy - Lorrie & Rick Tuesday August 24, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: This is a general letter to the U.S. Government. Since I have received no affidavits from anyone to the effect that I have called any ESP shots in advance; since I have received no communications from any branch of the Government (and I have been soliciting them for a year now); since it is evident that my own Government does not believe that I have the ability to do the things which I have been endeavoring (and have, in fact, been proving) to do - and I think that I have been fantastically successful.......... then it is obvious that the U.S. Government will not lift a finger to utilize my strange powers, or aid myself and my family. My family and I have undergone many hardships this past year, in an effort to prove to this Government that my "PK" system can attack ships, subs, missile silos, control weather, attack rocket-shots, attack planes, and harass military operations. And affect people, too. Oddly, my own bookkeeping shows tremendous success..........beyond any Government's wildest dreams..........were they to recognize and utilize this strange power for their own. But the U.S. Government is peculiar in that it does not seem to care about strange powers. Therefore, if the U.S. Government does not believe me, and does not care to hire me, or utilize my powers..........then the U.S. Government will not mind at all if I take my ESP gifts to some other nation or country. I do not care to submit my family and myself to another year of hardship, for nothing. And with my gifts, I should not have to. Furthermore, I yearn to join a group of scientists who can recognize my gifts and form a structure or framework that I can work within. I.e., when one is a creative artist, or musician..........one does not wish to dig coal in mines. And if one is a master of a branch of ESP, no matter what the causal factor..........he wants to work actively in that field, no other. My present job ends this week, or next week at the latest. Then I am free to spend weeks looking for another..........unless I can find a country interested in my ESP gifts. This being the case, perhaps I can offer my family more security and happiness as well as myself. And that is just what I am going to try to do. I give up on the U.S. Government's responding to my year-long appeal to respond. Respectfully, Ted Owens PK Man - "The Rain Maker" 1114 Spruce St., #33 Phila., Pa.

And it was no "figment of my imagination." Had quit work, and turned down a narrow side-street, walking towards big Market Street. Had gone 1/3 of a block when suddenly I looked up and there, turning at a complete angle to the street, driving up onto the sidewalk, about 5-6 feet from me and moving fast, was a City Bus. Pointed right at me. I jumped...sideways. It missed me and moved on down back onto the street and kept going. Just the driver alone in the bus. I laughed at the incongruity of a City Bus driver being that poor a driver, to go up onto a sidewalk and down again into the street. Then I walked to the Congress Hotel and checked for mail. Then I walked a half-block from the Congress and paused at another tiny side-street. When the light was green I stepped down into the street. Suddenly a big black Lincoln Continental, with two men in front and one man in back, gunned its motor and did a speed-acceleration hard-left around the corner and I leaped back for my life, again. (That made twice in a half-hour's time.) The Continental almost got a colored man just behind me, too, and he yelled, "You sons of bitches...you could of killed us!" He and I cussed the Continental driver quite thoroughly as we walked down the sidewalk. Take the two things...City Bus comes onto sidewalk, pointed at me...and two near-misses within a half-hour...and you have a peculiar series of events, which makes you think. Just before leaving work (before the City Bus) I had typed a message to the U.S. Government that I intend to take my PK findings and research to another nation, another government...which will accept me and work with me in cooperation. Copy enclosed. Another thing. We are not getting our mail at all. It's all screwed up. When I told you an "iron curtain" had been dropped around me, I wasn't kidding, kids. Whatever and whoever it is. Just a note to let you know some of the action. Funny I haven't heard from you re my success with the Gemini shot and Seallab cooperative. I got my hurricane that I've been working for, but there was nothing in the papers until the thing got way up almost to Canada. Pretty slippy. Have sent out 1,000 hurricane-hunter groups, not units. Write, you laggards. Love and kisses, [Hand-drawn lightning bolt symbol] === Page 66 of 140 1 Lorne + Rick Wednesday, August 25, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: Catastrophe after catastrophe.......... Gemini 5 could have been one...should have been...but the UFO's spared it...so far. Then the Hong Kong plane, losing more Marines than what we lost last week in Viet Nam fighting the Cong, if the newspapers are correct with their figures. Then the X-19 crash today. Then the OSO Flying Laboratory at Cape Kennedy today, kaput. How fast can catastrophes come? And these are all "Si" signs, George...laugh if you like. Can the Government explain how they occurred? Only when I am accepted by the U.S. Government, and hired according to their instructions, will catastrophes cease...and the U.S. start winning and getting ahead in every direction. As I told you...it is far worse to have the saucer intelligences against us, than it would be Russia and China combined. Incidentally...where President Johnson went to church last Sunday, the power failed and the electric organ would not play. Then the little girl fainted next to Johnson yesterday. These are signs too, George. It means that the Si's have President Johnson zeroed in now, wherever he goes. Enough said. I don't, George. They do. And one last thought...whoever is blocking me from being accepted by the U.S. Government is actually causing these Si catastrophes. You had better believe it! Sincerely, Ted Owens P K Man 1114 Spruce St., #33 Phila., Pa. === Page 67 of 140 Thursday, 8/26/65 Copy Lonnie + Rich The Editor Philadelphia Bulletin Dear Sir: I apologize for my former rude manners...in offering two inches of rain to Philadelphia in exchange for another story. The only excuse that I have is...that the story was supposed to perhaps find someone that would help me break the East Coast drought, completely, at no fee. Which, I think, is big of me, even if no one else does. Anyway, let's let bygones be bygones, eh? Let me go at this problem another way. I am going to give Philly some real rain within the next week-10 days. That rain last Sunday was not mine...and it was only 7/10 of an inch...just dew, really. My rain is rain - and you can count on 2-4 inches, at the least. I will not ask anything for it. It will be to make up for my bad manners in trying to bribe you with rain. You know, it is hard for me to understand...as long as I would make rain with chemicals, that is all right. Oh, with parapsychology, that is all right...but when I make rain by communicating with something...that is wrong... Why? As long as Philadelphia gets the rain! Incidentally, I nearly fell off my chair laughing this evening...to read about the New York officials who returned to New York, not having seen that wonderful rain-making invention in California...because it blew a fuse or short-circuited, or something. Ha ha ha. You will note that my storms do not blow fuses or short-circuit. Hoping we still are friends, I remain Sincerely Ted Owens "The Rain Maker" 07/25/2025 15:43 === Page 68 of 140 Lornie + Rick Friday, August 27, 1965 Today Zachow, the terrific scientist, called. He said that during the week he had confirmed the reality of my work..and the entities that influenced my work, and that helped to produce results. He had, among other things, consulted one of the great "sensitives" of the U.S., who had confirmed the reality of the Si's; that they come from far away from Earth; are a different type of "si" completely than any other known heretofore. Also the "sensitive" was struck, and almost over-powered with, a tremendous fear, relating to these entities (which are non-breathing.) The sensitive sensed a tremendous "animal force" about them. (The Michigan monster...?) Zachow said definitely that I am producing all of the phenomena that has been produced this past year. He said that it is own energy doing it, but that the Si's use me as a pin-pointing, or locating, instrument, and they help me with their own power. He said that our very conversation this minute would be recorded by them instantly... either by machine or by mind...he doesn't know how they do it. Z disagrees with me on one point..that if I were to die, then these entities would lose their human contact with the earth-people. He says that I am nothing to them... that they "don't give a tinker's dam" about me...and if they did, then I wouldn't be starving and we wouldn't have been stripped of all our things. Z recommends I deliver a mandate to them...either produce a way out of my dilemma in the next week, or I should "resign" as their agent. Then he advises me to quit this completely; put it out of my mind, and go back to ordinary pursuits. Such as knife-throwing. I made a point of asking Z if he thought all of the year's happenings were a "figment of my imagination" as George Clark suggested. He said certainly not; that he had ascertained definitely that I had produced the phenomena, something few humans alive could do - that I had powers far greater in scope than perhaps anyone on earth. But that I was using these powers wrong..destructively. He realizes the ultimate aim of mine...to use these powers to help correct the present ills of this earth...but he states that there seems to be something wrong in the way the Si's are going about it. He added he might be wrong in this, but he feels that way about it. He stated I was a "sending and receiving" radio station for the Si's. He stated that their work, rather than being in the electro-magnetic field... had something to do with the Doppler effect (whatever that is) or laser work of some kind. Within the hour, I had my reply for Arnold from the Si's, attached. === Page 69 of 140 8-27-65 p2 Friday August 27, 1965 Dear Arnold: The Si's wish me to point out to you that they were bringing me along beautifully in Fort Worth, Texas...that I was in fact healing people given up otherwise as hopeless by dentists and the medical fraternity...plus many other things along the lines of auto-hyp, raising the will to live in humans, etc. They were busily teaching me this advanced, far advanced, system of using "something past the mind" - under an umbrella of light-waking-hyp...when my fellow humans tore the entire structure apart. They point out that had people...not them...left me alone...I would have prospered, now living quite happily, and making great strides in the field of helping fellow humans...using their powers constructively. But that people, here on earth, tore down the help they were giving me. They point out that they have no money; they do not use it, or have use for it. What they have is power, and they have given me that...which is all that they have to give. They point out that they have faithfully helped me in every single experiment I have produced, in order to convince my government to take me under its wing, protect me and family, so that then the si's and I can "work around the world" with good, constructive, "white" PK phenomena...healing or putting into balance the present unbalanced weather condition, world-wide; healing, or putting into balance the present unbalanced mental and spiritual condition of the world; etc. They point out that for me to give them a week to bring me money or wealth etc., is ridiculous...because even now my own people are trying to see to it that I am kept in a broke and stripped condition. They point out that my mail and letters may be blocked from coming to me; (I already know that all telephone calls from the radio shows were blocked from me...Mr. Leipziger, at the Congress Hotel, told me. I had dozens of phone calls from people who were interested in me. Leipziger cooly told them I had "checked out!") If the government wishes to keep me broke, that is easy and simple. Any time I get a job a government man unobtrusively goes to see my boss, flashes his credentials...says "Now, actually this man is not a criminal, but will you tell me all you know about him?" Soon I am let go by the boss. This sort of thing is not conducive to longevity in the business world. They point out that they have been trying to help me sustain myself and family, by being hired to break the drought...and they almost succeeded..with the newspaper write-up and the radio shows. They point out, Arnold, that possibly there is an evil force of entities...not themselves...at this point trying to block them, and doing a good job of blocking me. They reiterate that they are only here to help us, humans, restore balance and sanity to an unbalanced and insane world, as it stands today. There it is, Arnold, their rebuttal. It was a pleasure talking to you today. I enjoy your advice, and your conversations, and your wisdom. We do have rapport. And I am still horrified that you went on the defensive when I asked you to watch my fingertips. When I am signalling the Si's, (I have many methods) I "sense" lightning flowing from my fingertips into the skies...and I wondered if you would sense the lightning. Sincerely Ted 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 70 of 140 8-27-65 p3 Oh, Arnold...had to reopen my letter to insert this.... The Si's also point out that Moses, whom they claim to have helped, received their messages...and they guided him. He was a poor sheep herder, and had nothing, just like me. He was given an impossible task...just like me...and he couldn't believe that anybody would listen to him...just like me. "My people will not listen to me or believe me," he told the Bush. "And certainly the Pharaoh will not believe me or pay attention when I ask him to release my people." But the Voice in the Bush gave him instructions and reassured him that everything would work out all right...that he would be listened to, eventually...and that the Pharaoh, with the help of God...would be forced to release his people. On this basis he proceeded...as I have proceeded...except that instead of a Voice from a Bush, it's been a different source, seemingly. Then Moses, with the "magic" staff, proceeded to wreak devastation upon the Egyptians, when they would not listen to him. Sickness over the land. Fouled-up water. Insects swarming all over everything. And so on, ending with the death of poor, innocent babies. And the final destruction of the Egyptian army. That was about as rough as you can get. And it was done for a good purpose, we can now say, with "20-20 hindsight." But at that time Moses own people got very mad at him...because his "destructiveness" was causing the Egyptians to put worse pressure on them. They begged Moses to stop, and forget the whole thing. They would just go on, as always, being slaves. But Moses...one, poor, man...heeded God's voice and orders...and carried on. So that this, later, was reckoned a very great "good" thing in the Bible. It is holy, as a matter of fact. Well, I have no illusions that God is talking to me, or guiding me...I know darn well, as a matter of fact, that it is UFO's, because I have the proof of it. And Arnold, based on how rough the early Christians were...to burn away the dross from man's soul in order to leave the gold...the present activity is definitely not out of line. In early Bible days, remember, Christian bands that roamed and slaughtered entire tribes...killing women and children? The Si's and I aren't that rough. All that they have done is try and get the ear of this government...by tornados, hurricanes, affecting subs, rockets, planes, etc., to show this government what power they have...but from the start they have pointed out that they want only to use their great powers to help this country; most of all this entire world. And all they want for starters is for this country to start helping them help the world. Arnold, if they wanted to be mean, or were vicious, they could have done far, far more destruction and wreaked far far much more havoc, than they have. They have just done a little, to show their power. Which has the greatest intelligence, Arnold...President Johnson and McNamara and Rusk and the rest of the advisors...or the Si's? Which has the greatest ability to see ahead in time? You know the answer. Furthermore, the course that we are steering now, in our own government, is definitely leading to mass destruction. What worse could the Si's do to us? They are desperately trying to halt things! === Page 71 of 140 8-27-65 p4 They also point out that, as for my being poor...without funds, car, TV, house, etc. Moses was just a sheep-herder. The Disciples had nothing but the clothes on their backs. Others that were guided by a Greater Intelligence...no matter what the name... were poor people. Jesus, to name one. They do put up a strong argument, Arnold. And the feeling that I receive, carried with their intelligence, is a good feeling...a constructive, kindly, loving feeling. I am a damn good sensitive myself, Arnold. I have encountered the "bad" controls... === Page 72 of 140 Sat. 8/28/65 Dear Lonnie: I enjoyed hearing from you. You definitely are not getting all my letters. Listen -- any letter I mail to "Lonnie & Rick" means both of you read that letter. Got it? Do not hold any of my letters back from Rick. The enclosed copies of letters reveal the current action, pretty much. Send back the signed affidavit from Dave Richman. As usual I had prepared my "homework" for Gemini-5 before last Thursday -- to get fire, human error, lightning, power-failure, ground-controls, etc. Got just about all of it! Stopped the shot. You know my routine pretty well. The "game" is to harass the shoot without killing the astronauts. I've done well. The idiots then shot up OSO, Flying Laboratory (remember the OGO I got last year?) -- and it blew up. They never learn. Martha encloses letter. Be good, and mind Pat. Love and kisses, honey -- Dad. 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 73 of 140 Lornie and Rick August 31, 1965...Tuesday Mr. Eastwood, Inventions, NASA. Dear Mr. Eastwood: Now that the excitement is all over, I would like to respectfully point out that my PK work on Gemini 5 was a classic of what PK effects do. As you well know, if you have read my correspondence this past year, my objectives with PK were: Lightning strikes. Storms. Power failure. Human error. Mechanical malfunction. Communications disruption between ground controls and craft. Electromagnetic interference. I would say that I obtained 80% of my goal. And not the least important..."built in" the PK is the intelligence that the astronauts are not killed or injured in the flight. This was successful. Main purpose, of course, was to show the U.S. Government, as usual, what the "PK" can do with regard to rockets and missiles. Enclosed is a signed prediction that I made, with full confidence, the Thursday morning before the initial Gemini-5 shoot, to a brightly-intelligent college man with a degree, where I work, at Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority. I gave him, when he asked me about the Gemini-5 shot, 10-1 odds against success of the shoot. Of course, this was the first, or Thursday, shoot. We did not know then there would be another attempt. My odds were correct. I further told him that the same odds should apply during the following week. And, of course, this was borne out. Even borne out further when the OSO blew up at third stage. I have applied with another, foreign government, to work at their ESP center. Should this go through, I will be able to fulfill my goal of applying PK around the world, in a constructive way. At any event, at some time in the near future I intend to take down, or disarm, the areas that I have activated with PK in order to demonstrate its working to the U.S. Government (Electro, Electra, etc.) The East Coast drought will continue, and nothing man can do will alleviate it. I can end it, however. But that is not NASA's story. Respectfully, Ted Owens, PK Man. 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 74 of 140 8/31/65 P2 August 31, 1965...Tuesday COPY Mr. Eastwood, Inventions, NASA, August 26, 1965 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN On Thursday morning, August 19 (last week) 1965, at lunch, Ted Owens predicted to me, (when asked about the success of the Gemini-5 shot to go off later at Cape Kennedy) that the odds, according to him, Owens, were 10-1 against the success of the shot. He stated that if he had the money he would be willing to bet $10 against my $1 that the shot would not be a success...but that, because he is only making $50 a week, he cannot gamble now with money. Mr. Owens also implied that similar odds mitigated against a successful shot for the coming weeks. /S/ David Richman Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority 304 Arch Street Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Note: Mr. Eastwood...I would have won my bet, since there were two objectives to the shoot, on the second attempt: (1) Link-up with REP, (2) 8 full days of flight. The REP contact was not made. Betsy, the Hurricane (also mine) forestalled the 8 days, and brought it down short of full time. I would have won the bet anyway, without that, because I was betting on the Thursday shoot at the time. === Page 75 of 140 Copy - Lornie & Rick Tuesday, August 31, 1965 Mr. Dunn, Chief U.S. Weather Bureau Hurricane Center Miami, Florida Dear Mr. Dunn: You and I are going to have some fun this hurricane season. I am the man who wrote you in 1964. I successfully ran three hurricanes across the Cape Kennedy area...and also managed to direct one to the Michoud Space Complex in Louisiana. Last year I discovered a method of making hurricanes (have sent out 1,000 hurricane-hunted groups, of PK (psychokinesis) several months ago...) then guiding them; and bringing them to life after they die. (Brought 2 back to life last year) Last year I managed to make the hurricane hook left into Florida; a first in a century, the papers said. Also Cleo followed my "PK" map. And one other...I forget offhand now, not having my books at hand. Nevertheless, let us have a game...Dunn versus P K Man. I am producing hurricanes and typhoons. But I am interested only in the hurricanes, insofar as I can guide them to target-area...Daytona Beach to Miami...which area is named "Electro." You and the U.S. Govt. try to stop them...and I will bring them in. It will be very interesting. I was going to bring them up the East Coast in order to bring rain to New York... but was rejected by everyone when I offered to break the East Coast drought...so now I am going to do this. After the hurricanes either hit the target, Electro... or get away from me completely (only one did last year..the rest were hits) then I will take them off to the right as soon as they draw near Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and send them off to sea. Do not take this lightly. I warn you most seriously. You would be well advised to contact Central Intelligence Agency and NASA for copies of my file, before you pass this letter off as a "crank" letter. And, as I wrote you last year, would greatly appreciate it if you would name one hurricane after my daughter Lornie...Hurricane Lornie. Respectfully, PK Man Ted Owens (PK Man) 111 Spruce, #33 Philadelphia, Pa. P.S.

It was born in the "graveyard of Hurricanes" and soon died in the Atlantic without threatening the mainland. Betsy Winds At 80 MPH MIAMI, Fla., Aug. 29 (AP). - Tropical storm Betsy slowed down Sunday in her forward speed and grew into a full fledged hurricane with winds up to 80 miles an hour. The Miami Weather Bureau said in a 6 P. M. EDT advisory that the center was located MIAMI (UPI). - Hurricane Betsy, nourished by the warmth of the tropical Atlantic, intensified today while churning harmlesslessly across the open ocean. Betsy became the second hurricane of the season yesterday, lashing the Leeward and Virgin Islands with heavy rain and playing the role of a slight spoiler in the U. S. space program. The storm forced astronauts Gordon Cooper and Charles Conrad to cut their record-breaking space voyage one orbit short. EARLY TODAY Betsy was centered some 300 miles north-northeast of San Juan, P. R., and was moving north-northeast at 12 miles an hour. It carried winds of 80 M.P.H. at its center. Forecaster Raymond Kraft said Betsy "will gradually increase in intensity, but it is no immediate threat to any land area." ??

Her highest winds dropped from 85 to 65 miles an hour, and she was demoted to a tropical storm. BETSY UNDECIDED Weathermen had been waiting for the storm to move forward and pick up higher winds, conditions which would improve the chances of success for the seeding experiment, the largest yet undertaken. But for more than a day and a half the storm has thrashed around about 270 miles north of San Juan, P.R., without deciding which direction to go. Fifteen planes stood ready in Puerto Rico to drop silver iodide crystals into her moisture-laden winds if the signal were given. 'A WEAK STORM' But late Tuesday night the final decision had not been made, according to Dr. Cecil Gentry, head of the Hurricane Research Laboratory, who was in Puerto Rico. "It's a weak storm and conditions at this time do not lead to it intensifying," said Miami hurricane forecaster Raymond Kraft. "Simply, there's more air going in and out, and the circulation is falling apart." The planes would spread the crystals through the hurricane's rainbands close to the center "eye" at levels ranging from 1000 to 40,000 feet every two hours. SELF-DESTRUCTION If the experiments succeeded fully, Hurricane Betsy would be fooled into cooling itself off and thus destroying itself. Stalled far from land, Betsy was in an ideal position for the undertaking. Scientists have been working on limited scale seeding experiments for nearly 20 years.

American space personnel on Grand Turk and Mayaguana Islands battened down under the Air Force's No. 1 alert. (But the Weather Bureau said Betsy probably would not hit the multimillion-dollar tracking stations with its worst punch.) Growing stronger on the warm, blue waters of the tropical Atlantic, Betsy turned slightly to the north after having moved to the west all day. The Weather Bureau said it expected an even more north-easterly track Thursday, easing the threat to the southern tip of the 750-mile Bahamas chain and heightening the threat for the populous islands in the center. Beyond Mayaguana -- whose tracking station was de-stroyed by hurricane Donna in 1960 and never rebuilt -- lay other islands in the Bahamas chain and the southeastern coast of the United States. A hurricane command post was established at Cape Kennedy. It put the 150-man missile tracking station at Eleuthera and the 35-man station on San Salvador on alert status No. 3, meaning winds of 35 m.p.h. or more are expected within 48 hours. The 300 men on Grand Bahamas Island were told to get ready for the possibility of 35-mile winds within 72 hours. Betsy's calm eye was about 750 miles east-southeast of Miami, Fla., and 170 miles east-northeast of Grand Turk. The hurricane was spinning toward the west at 8 m.p.h. and expected to continue that way at least until noon Thursday, when a more northwesterly turn was anticipated. Gordon Dunn, chief of the National Hurricane Center in Miami, said the storm posed a potential threat to the U. S. mainland if it continued on its westward course. "But I doubt that it could reach here for at least two days," he said. "It is not moving in perfectly straight lines," Dunn said, "but its net movement is almost due west." He said a slightly more northerly movement was expected Thursday. As Betsy picked up steam, scientists discarded a plan to bombard the storm with silver iodide crystals in an attempt to turn its fury into harmless rain. Its westward movement, they said, made the test risky. In 1949, a seeded storm split in two and one portion hit Savannah, Ga. Weathermen said the seeding was not responsible, but they haven't seeded a hurricane near land since then. | MILES | | | | |---|---|---|---| | 0 | 100 | 200 | 300 | 400 | BERMUDA HURRICANE BETSY BAHAMAS DOMINICAN REPUBLIC PUERTO RICO HAITI JAMAICA Inquirer Staff Map Symbol indicates position and broken line the course of Hurricane Betsy in the Atlantic.

More than a dozen planes had been scheduled to leave Puerto Rico this morning to attack the storm with silver iodide crystals, but they were grounded as Betsy gained strength after being downgraded during the night to a tropical storm. The storm was last located 200 miles east-northeast of Turks Island on the eastern tip of the Bahamas. Winds were 90 miles an hour. Betsy was centered near latitude 22.2 North, longitude 67.9 West.

More than a dozen planes had been scheduled to leave Puerto Rico to attack the storm with cooling silver iodide crystals, but they were grounded as Betsy gained intensity after being downgraded during the night to a tropical storm. With bombardment, the scientists ran a risk of splitting the hurricane and making its fury worse. Forecasters expected it to gain speed rapidly and pick up more strength from a high pressure area off the Eastern Coast.

Coastline Residents Warned MIAMI (AP) -- Hurricane Betsy whirled relentlessly northwestward Friday night on a course aimed at the Carolina coast. The Weather Bureau said the small but dangerous hurricane posed a threat to Georgia and the Carolinas although her course might suddenly change. There was a better-than-even chance the storm might never touch land at all, the Weather Bureau said. But it asked coastline residents to watch for advisories on Betsy's progress. Bahamas Escape Betsy churned harmlessly past the Bahamas and was expected to pass 250 to 300 miles east of Jacksonville this afternoon. Then the problem will be which steering currents take charge -- ones that would carry the storm westward toward land or more northeasterly up the Atlantic, the Weather Bureau said. Friday night, Betsy, with top winds of 125 m.p.h., was about 500 miles southeast of Charleston, S.C., and heading toward it at 12 m.p.h. 'Hasn't Left Us' "We want to remind the people up there that Betsy hasn't left us yet," said forecaster Sam Pierce. "There always is a big element of unpredictability with hurricanes," he said. "But I'd say chances are better than 50-50 that it will not hit any part of the East Coast of the United States." Small craft owners south of Cape Hatteras were warned not to venture into the Atlantic Ocean because of gradual roughening of waves over the weekend. HURRICANE HALTS OFF FLORIDA; STILL THREAT MIAMI (AP) -- Hurricane Betsy whirled to a stop 350 miles off the Florida coast Saturday night without a hint as to where it would aim its sledge-hammer winds. "This is a large, severe hurricane and all interests along the southeast coast should keep in continuous touch with advisories and bulletins," the Weather Bureau told thousands of people worried about weekend outings. "Many beaches from the Carolinas to northeast Florida will be awash Sunday," the Weather Bureau said. "Boating, surf-fishing and swimming will be extremely hazardous, if not foolhardy." During the day Betsy had turned slightly northward away from the Carolina coast, raising hopes that it might escape Betsy's peak winds of 135 m.p.h. But then -- caught in opposing steering currents that equalized each other -- the storm stopped. The weather Bureau said nothing was in sight that might cause Betsy to resume forward movement until today.

Good!!!! Erratic Betsy Puzzles Forecasters MIAMI, Fla., Sept. 3 (Friday). (AP)--Hurricane Betsy whipped itself into an intense and dangerous hurricane Tuesday, likely to worry residents of the Eastern Seaboard for another week. Changing directions daily, the small but powerful hurricane has refused to take a steady course since it was born in the Caribbean last week. VEERS TOWARD ATLANTIC Late Thursday it veered sharply away from the Bahamas toward the open Atlantic. At midnight EDT Betsy was centered near Latitude 24.4 north, Longitude 71.7 west, about 540 miles east of Miami, and was traveling toward the northwest at 8 miles an hour. Winds were reported up to 150 miles an hour. "I wouldn't want to take any bets on what it is going to do," said forecaster Raymond Kraft. 'COULD RUN FOR WEEK' "About the only consolation you have is when it gets level with your latitude, the chances are pretty slim it will turn back. It could run on for a week," he said. "It's going to be another two or three days before we have any firm idea on whether any part of the East Coast is going to be threatened." After that, if Betsy were to go inland, it would take three or more days to wear itself out. If Betsy takes a harmless course up the Atlantic, it would take three or more days to move far enough north to wilt in colder climates. GALES EXPECTED The Bahamas Weather Bureau said, despite the anticipated threat to thinly populated out-islands, it had not decided whether to issue warnings. "Right now, the most we expect is gales," said a forecaster. The 4000 persons on Cat Island and the 6000 on Eleuthera would be buffeted by sustained gales for several hours under the present forecast. But they would likely be spared hurricane-force winds, the Weather Bureau said. WRONG!!

The Weather Bureau said the small but dangerous hurricane posed a threat to Georgia and the Carolinas, although noting that her course might suddenly change. There was a better than even chance the storm might never touch land at all, the Weather Bureau said. But it asked coastline residents to watch for advisories on Betsy's progress. Betsy churned harmlessly past the Bahamas and was expected to pass 250 to 300 miles east of Jacksonville, Fla., on Saturday afternoon.

At midnight (EDT), Betsy, with top winds of 125 miles an hour, was about 500 miles southeast of Charleston, S. C., and heading toward it at 12 miles an hour. "At this time we do not suggest any change in vacation plans for the holiday weekend on account of the storm," the Miami Weather Bureau said. An expected shift to the north or north-northwest would keep Betsy well at sea and bearing toward cooler waters which always sap the energy of tropical storms shunted over them. # 150-MPH Betsy Skirting Outer Bahama Islands Miami, Sept. 3---(AP)---Erratic Hurricane Betsy skirted the Bahamas' Out Islands today with winds increased to 150 miles an hour. Noting that Betsy had changed directions a half dozen times in the past three days, weathermen said the eastern seaboard will probably have to worry about the storm for another week. Navy reconnaissance last located the center of the hurricane near latitude 25.0 north, longitude 72.9 west, or about 460 miles slightly south of due east from Miami and 120 miles northeast of San Salvador, moving northwest at 10 MPH. Gales extended out from the center band of highest winds 20 miles in all directions except 75 miles to the southwest of the center. Betsy's present course would mean that the center would pass just a short distance north of the Abaco Islands early Saturday morning. GOOD! CHANGE COURSE # Missile Trackers In Betsy's Path 9/3 MIAMI (UPI). --- Hurricane Betsy, boasting peak winds of 150 miles an hour, meandered dangerously near a string of U. S. missile tracking stations in the Bahamas today on a course aimed at the Eastern Seaboard. Weathermen said the storm, if it maintained its present course, would take three days to reach the U. S. Early today Betsy was centered about 165 miles east of the shuttered San Salvador Island tracking station. This was about 540 miles south-southeast of Miami. The hurricane was crawling at 8 MPH on a northwesterly course. Exactly 08/02/2025 14:51 at RogB 8/29!!! R.M.P. MILES 0 100 200 300 400 BERMUDA Atlantic Ocean HURRICANE BETSY Wilmington S.C.

Florida Peril Lessens Miami, Sept. 2---(AP)---Hurricane Betsy's winds built up to 115 miles an hour today but a very gradual northward swing in its forward movement lessened the immediate threat to South Florida. Hurricane Betsy was located by aircraft and land-based radar near latitude 23.0 north longitude 70.7 west, or about 635 miles east-southeast of Miami and 100 miles north-northeast of Grand Turk Island moving west at 9 mph. Highest winds were about 115 mph over a small area near the center. Gales extended out 200 miles in all directions except 75 miles in the southwest quadrant.

Gales (shading) extend up to 200 miles from eye. MIAMI, Sept. 4 (AP)--The season's second hurricane began to shy away from the United States coastline today and hope rose that the Carolinas might escape the full fury of its winds. In the Miami Weather Bureau, forecasters delayed from hour to hour the posting of a hurricane watch for the vulnerable Carolina coast that juts sharply out into one of the Atlantic Ocean paths often taken by tropic storms. "We're sweating it out until the last minute, to see if Betsy [the name for the hurricane] will continue veering toward the north," said Robert McCaslin, a forecaster. "If the turn persists," he said, "we can take South Carolina off the hook, and maybe later the entire coast. It'll be close--a real squeaker--but the turn has started and we expect it to continue." Winds peaking at 125 miles an hour slammed around the eye of the storm as it roared past the Cape Kennedy missile complex this morning. ### Area Expected to Grow The hurricane then was 360 miles at sea, but the storm sent gale winds lashing out over an area 400 miles wide and churned up 120,000 square miles of Atlantic waters. The area of gales was expected to grow larger. From Cape Kennedy to Cape Hatteras, forecasters warned small craft owners to get into safe harbor before winds and tides rose to dangerous levels. Pending further developments, residents of both North and South Carolina were warned to keep in constant touch with advisories on the dangerous storm. The hurricane was pointed directly at the heavily populated Gold Coast of southeast Florida but on her new course the hurricane only brushed them. On Abaco Island, one of the largest in the chain, winds peaked at 85 miles an hour when the storm passed to the east. ### Normal Crowds on Beaches WILMINGTON, N. C., Sept. 4 (AP) -- Vacationers, taking their final holiday outing of the summer, frolicked on beaches of the Carolinas today apparently unconcerned over the hurricane threat. "Everything is calm here and we're not worried," observed a spokesman for the Greater Myrtle Beach, S. C., Chamber of Commerce. He said the beach crowds seemed to be about normal for the Labor Day weekend. Skies were generally fair and there was a slight swell in the surf. Along the North Carolina coast, "things are about normal for this time of the year," a spokesman at Elizabeth City said. All points reported winds out of the northeast, ranging from 10 to 20 knots, with gusts a little stronger. Automobiles rolled into beach resorts as radio broadcasts told of the hurricane's location, her force and her forward speed. Parents and children with picnic lunches, beach balls and surf boards spotted the sands, but chilly winds and waters at some points discouraged bathing. Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach and Morehead City, all in North Carolina, reported scattered showers. Farther up the coast, skies were sunny but beach crowds were about half the normal size. "The sea is pretty rough, but we're having the nicest day we've had in a week," a spokesman at Manteo said. # Betsy Blusters Toward Coast At 125 MPH Miami, Sept. 4--(UPI)--Hurricane Betsy threatened the Carolinas and Georgia with its 125 miles-per-hour winds today, pushing high tides against the coasts where many resorts teemed with Labor Day holiday vacationers. Two Coast Guard lightships moored off the coast reported six-foot seas and increasing winds. The Miami Weather Bureau in a 6 A. M. advisory located Betsy's center near latitude 27.7 north, longitude 75.1 west, or about 315 miles east of Vero Beach, Fla., and 525 miles south of Cape Hatteras, N. C. The storm was moving toward the northwest at eight mph. It was expected to continue on its course several hours and then turn north-northwest. The gale area reached 200 miles out in the northeast semicircle and was expected to expand. The Navy moved 21 aircraft from the Glynco Naval Air Station at Brunswick, Ga., as a precaution. The planes were flown to Stewart Air Force Base at Smyrna, Tenn. The Air Force cancelled the Sunday afternoon drive-through tour of the Cape Kennedy Space Center because of the storm. Betsy also postponed until next Tuesday movement of the two-man Gemini 6 spacecraft to its launch site. The raising of an Atlas-Centaur rocket on its launch pad was also delayed until next week. # Howling Betsy Passes Kennedy, Heads off Carolinas moving forward at nine miles an hour 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 84 of 140 9-1-65 p7 "I" FLA.

Rick, haven't heard from you for a long time. Am surprised, in lieu of the successes have had with "PK phenomena these past weeks. I wouldn't suppose wild elephants could keep you from writing about it. Right now am working on Hurricane Betsy...naturally...just like last year. Spent hours last night getting Betsy to turn left, hook West. Have had to correct her course several times now. But she's a good little hurricane...and I have added several refinements and mechanisms which I can't discuss here...but which are dandies. For instance, when I read that 15 airplanes were getting ready to attack Betsy, while she was standing still temporarily, with silver iodide, to kill her....I put in anti-plane PK in such a way that Besty had a chance herself to get the planes, before the planes got her. Like they were reading my mind, the government canceled the plane strike. Good thing they did. I have learned so much...so much...since you kids have left. Damn, wish I could tell you all about it. What I have learned is from the saucer intelligences....the ones I got the message from in Washington that night at Mangels. Whatever you do...if anything ever happens to me....be sure and get my files, which I carry mostly in a black bag, wherever I go...Have a bunch of notebooks in there, and a bunch of folders with material. For God's sake keep this until you grow up...I will never be able to forget what happened to the material I sent to Pat to keep for me, when I was in a jam in Phoenix one time...in the ash can it went. So do not let anyone else get their hands on my file. Keep it yourselves, because it is beyond price or value. When I tell you that, you'd better believe it. I have even drawn colored pictures of the insides of the Si's spacecraft...pictures of the different things they do, and how they do them. For instance, they know where I am at all times, and how I am...because they have rigged a "floating light" high overhead in the sky, over me, wherever I go. This light pulsates, and tells them not one thing...just where I am...but my mood, my emotions, how alive I am, and so on. *I made a picture of this.* Yesterday, again, someone in a car tried to hit me. That makes three times in a week it's been tried. Now, someone trying to brainwash you would say, "Ah, he's a paranoid nut." But not so...I have been walking to work for months here, and have never had an accident, or a near accident...until this week. Then suddenly pow pow pow...three "freak" occurrences where cars, instead of letting me walk with the light, suddenly accelerate to high speed and except for my peripheral vision and agility would have settled me for good by now. Whoever is behind it...will give up on cars now...for I am wary of that trap...and will try another angle. Am sure it is not our government, because they seem to place ... well ...I don't think it is. Could be commie. My 4-hour radio stint that one night told the commie's all they needed to hear, to try and get me, before the U.S. Government miraculously finds its right mind and accepts me. Am positive you kids are not getting all of my mail; why, I don't know. But if you were, you would be writing differently, and more often. That is for sure. One day you will see my file...and I have copies of all letters I have sent to you...and you can see very easily what you've gotten and what you haven't. Little Bo is so cute, it is almost unbelievable. And smart....wow! Zachow, the scientist who's been investigating me and my work...says to watch Bo carefully and teach him carefully...because he has my eyes and the same ability to direct "projectionaliz thought-force" with devastating results. If he isn't taught to direct this ab === Page 88 of 140 9-3-65 P2 2 constructive channels, then things could get rough. Because of my newspaper write-up on rainmaking, and the two radio broadcasts... I lost my job...and the agency that was placing me on jobs, dropped me as "some kind of nut." Ha ha ha! Yep, a 5-10 billion dollars nut...that's about what I have cost the government so far with PK. But of course, I expected it, and willingly made the "trade"...as a matter of personal values. I have about three dozen letters I received as a result of the radio programs... from everywhere...Alabama, Ohio, Illinois, New York, Delaware...even Canada. Would you like to see these peoples' letters, plus my answers? If so, let me know and will send them...but you must promise to send them back, because they are a part of my files. When do you start to school? Just think, Lornie, you'll be 16 purty soon. My, my, how you do grow. Be no time at all until you have a beautiful home of your own, a fine husband who loves you, and be raising your own little chilluns. Great care must be used, however, in selecting your man...remember that. Teen-agers get "crushes" on fellows their age, sometimes ... oh foo, I'm not going to try and advise you. Sometimes I think maybe teenagers, in their brainless "crush" state...are working on a more accurate "beam" from Nature...than older, more mature people who think they know all of the answers because they are older and more mature. And they still wind up throwing things at their husband, or worse. Who knows? Only Nature. Not people, that's for sure. One thing is for sure...Pat is a fine judge of people, and can steer you straight. She can spot a phony a mile away...just like daddy can. So give momma a look at any of your catches. She'll read him, but good. Well, Rick, what are you doing? Out of town visiting? Be very careful of venereal disease, kids. This week were two articles in the papers...doctors everywhere now are greatly alarmed because just recently VD rate shot up to the moon. They can't understand why, but they are warning all the highschool and college kids to beware.... Write. Love and kisses.... Dad. P.S. Just finished making a dandy rainstorm - which, as a side-product to my prediction - put out a giant 5-alarm fire which the firemen couldn't handle because water facilities were too far away from the scene - people in 10 homes were evacuated because the fire was out of control. Meanwhile I was on the balcony outside our apartment, activating the rain to put the fire out. See attached. === Page 89 of 140 9/3/65 p1 Friday Sept. 3, 1965 Dear Rick, The Rain Maker-- Zachow turned out to be a disappointment. He told me to give the Si's a week... to furnish me money... or quit them and go back to throwing knives. I told Zachow... goo'by friend. Rick, I thank you for the medallion. It is a gift... I have actually wanted to buy for myself, in days past, but couldn't. Back in Ft Worth, long ago, I thought of having those "prayer hands" put on a ring. Anyway, pal, I have put it on the string 'round my neck, and there it will always be. Thanks, from Dad. Nobody can discourage my "PK" work, Rick -- plenty have tried. You say you got my letter. Which one? I've sent about 10. I addressed them "Lonnie & Rick Owens." Right now I'm nudging Hurricane Betsy to the target -- Electro -- the Cape K. Have had to turn her a half-dozen times. She keeps swinging north, and I keep swinging her back west, or north west. It's got the Weather Bureau flippin' their wig, trying to keep up with us (me & Betsy). They announced Thursday that all was well -- Betsy was going north -- away from Florida. I worked hard, and swung her 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 90 of 140 9/3/65 p 2 around again - so Thurs. night she was pointed at the Cape again. Today she swung north again. Tonight I'll swing her around again - and they'll be hopping around in Florida over the weekend. Another car tried to get me this week - makes three attempts. Somebody believes I can do what I say - and fears it. Could I use a thousand? Right now Daddy has 60¢, no food, rent paid until Wednesday, and my job ended today. If we had any money I'd buy a used car and get out of here. We're trapped. Believe me, son, Dad is alone on this deal. Everybody I've met has dropped me like a hot rock. The combination of "UFO's" and me - against - U.S. Govt. nobody wants any part of. It's Dad against everybody. And the joker? I'm trying to help everybody - that is, the Si's are. Actually, I haven't an enemy in the world - except the U.S. Govt. & the Commies. Ha ha. And friends? You know - somebody who'll run thru fire & flames to save you, or dive in deep water when you're going down the third time - ? There aren't any such animal. === Page 91 of 140 9/3/05 P3 It's a shame - but, looking at the picture realistically - it simply could not be any other way. Rick - this is fact. Your Daddy is like Martha Ann running down the highway into the cars. I am using strange powers from another dimension - perhaps hundreds of years ahead of these times. And the reaction of the people and the Govt. is the same stupid insane reaction so prevalent now everywhere - the same reaction an Air Force plane has when it sees a UFO - chase it, shoot it down! The same reaction people had in Michigan when 16 people saw the 7 foot 400 lb. "monster." (See my letter with clipping.) Thousands of people went out to destroy it with knives, pitchforks, guns... and it hadn't hurt anybody! It certainly could have torn any of those 16 limb from limb. But it didn't. To the people, I'm like that "monster." They can't understand me... they are deeply afraid of what I can do. So - destroy. That's all they know in this world. That's what the Si's are trying to change. And by the way - if you hear of me ever "in an accident" - you'll know it's no accident. === Page 92 of 140 9/3/65 p4 And I think as straight as you do - so don't ever let anybody kid you that "Dad's off his rocker." They might try. I mailed you a big, fat letter yesterday, too. Here's a kiss and a hug for my dandy boy. I miss you, my hard-headed pal. Love, Dad. P.S. Your prediction before the riots was excellent! But always get Lorrie, or somebody, to sign as a witness! Like I did Jean Mangels, or Hugh Lynn Cayce. See? Also - keep all my letters in a file-folder, like I do yours. 08/02/2025 14:51 === Page 93 of 140 P.P.S. I am glad your planes did not attack Betsy. Betsy was prepared for them, and you might have lost some planes. Good thinking! Friday, Sept. 3, 1965 Mr. Dunn, Chief Hurricane Center Bureau Miami, Florida Dear Mr. Dunn: Yesterday afternoon, late, I spent two hours getting Betsy back onto the right track. Have had to do that several times in the past few days...but generally Betsy has followed the exact course I plotted for her on 8/29. Target, if course, Cape Kennedy. I do this often enough, and perhaps the U.S. Government will believe in my work and ability. I did it enough last year to convince practically anyone...yet still didn't convince NASA. Well, actions speak louder than words. I have Betsy plotted on the course she has now...to strike on the Cape at Florida. Should she begin to deviate, then I will use my regular corrective measures. But as a rule...when I plot the course for the hurricane...even though it deviates...it readjusts by itself and gets back onto course. I know why this is so, and it is interesting. The reason I work so hard to correct even the slightest deviation...is to make sure. Might interest you to know I have been making storms up here in Philadelphia. Made one just last Wednesday for the Editor of the Phila. "Bulletin," Sept. 1. Clipping attached. Also spent four hours one night going around in circles up here on the Jack McKinny "Night Talk" Radio Show, WCAU, City and Monument Aves., Phila. They put off a U.S. Senator and Jack Carter, the comedian, so that they could hold me on the program for four hours. At least that's what Mr. McKinny said. Then Mr. Ed Harvey, of "Talk of Philadelphia" Radio Show up here, called on Friday and asked me to make a big storm for the following Monday...and appear on his show that day, to co-incide. I told him that I would do my best to make the storm for that day...although I do not usually try to call the exact day. So I had to work to bring in the "materials" then had to work hard not to turn it loose on Sunday. It broke on Monday, and nearly ruined Philadelphia. Dozens of homes hit by lightning; police tower hit by lightning; power station hit by lightning; town flooded..it was a mess. Why am I telling you all this? Because...I have a "control" on weather conditions. I can make storms; I can put a lock on an area and block rainfall; I can make hurricanes, I can guide them, I can sometimes bring them back to life after they are dead (did that twice last year); and I can take the same hurricanes away from areas, if necessary. Of course, last year nobody believed me...although I was calling my shots at Cape Kennedy by letter and by wire. Maybe after this year, all concerned will believe me. Respectfully, Ted Owens (PK Man - "The Rain Maker") 1114 Spruce St., #33 Phila., Pa. P.S. What would be fun would be to accompany you, during hurricane season...and I map the route for the 'cane and bring it in on target, while you actually observe how I do it..and try to block it with all the means at your disposal...seeding, etc., not by hanging me. 07/25/2025 15:43 === Page 94 of 140 9-4-65 p1 Thursday I showed Si's the map on Men-Tel, with the squares which would carry Betsy into the Cape. I also asked for sub-craft to "herd" Betsy from square to square. (What followed afterward is unbelievable!!) 7 PM 9/4/65 # Analysis of Hurricane Betsy I missed the target, the Cape, with Betsy - but in doing so I made a positively frightening discovery!! From the beginning of Betsy - I outlined on the map the path she was to follow. I placed this "path" inside 3 progressive squares. (SEE "FORCE FIELDS" SHEET) Betsy faithfully moved from Square 1 to Square 2. But she acted peculiarly. She'd go North, then West, then North, then West. Quinn said, "it is not moving in perfectly straight lines - but its net movement is almost due west." I wondered why Betsy was zig-zagging the course I'd laid out for her - but she was faithfully proceeding toward the target. She was 360 miles from the Cape - and pointed straight at it. Friday I was happy. Then, she swung north and proceeded up a straight line - missing the Cape!!! Why?!! She'd come all that way, right to the target - then taken a wrong turn. I took a long look at my maps. Then the hair felt like it was standing up on my head! Betsy had been following the lines of my 3 squares. That is, she would go up, then over, then up, then over - until she came to Frame 3. Now, I assumed that the 'core' could roam in the square, but would be near the center of the square, eventually. So on 3, Betsy should hit the center of the square. Instead she stayed on the edge of the === Page 95 of 140 9-4-65 P2 (2 3) square - doing what he had been doing - going up then over. This edge of the square was about 300-400 miles out from the Cape. Therefore, in following precisely the lines of my squares - Betsy did an incredibly intricate maneuver!! Far more difficult than simply following a straight line to the Cape!! It was my error, not Betsy's. Now, at 8 PM this evening, Sat., 9/4, am trying to stop Betsy and bring her back onto the Cape - because she's still in the square, although at the edge of it. (Took out Brains & Guides) 12 Midnite - Betsy has stopped!! Evidently either because she knows an error has been made, or because I removed brains. Now: Am putting in large X number red & black units. Am restoring Brain, but putting it on backwards, in reverse. Same w/eyes; w/ears; with Guides. So that Betsy will activate forwards, going South & West instead of North & East - which could run her into Cape. Let's see if this works. (i.e. I've reversed her.) Also have PK'd force field into reverse, to help Betsy go backward. And have used wand on Men-Tel to show her what is needed - Betsy to go back & over to Cape. Sun. morn. 9/5 Betsy still stopped on that spot. I want her to move down to the Cape Kennedy. (Down or over, it would be.) Note: Put new brain in backwards, which was incorrect. Betsy is 360 miles off New Smyrna Beach, Fla. - almost opposite the Cape. So removed brain, etc., then put back eyes, ears, brains, guides - in new position, facing land - & the Cape. (Sun. morn noon, 9/5.) === Page 96 of 140 9-4-65 p3 Sun. nite - about 10 PM 3 Betsy is moving - SOUTH !!! Which means - my removing mechs then replacing mechs in other direction, to take Betsy backward, or sideways - worked!!! Hooray!! Am now working to take her in a U-curve: this would take her right into the Cape! The radio thinks she's going South into the Bahamas - (to clean up NASA's missile-tracking stations she missed on the first pass?) Anyway - I'll stay up tonight, trying to U-turn her, rather than work to bring her back in a circle onto the Cape, later. At least - I succeeded in stopping her; then in redirecting her!! Two big wonderful accomplishments. (Note: If Si Control takes her into Cape Kennedy, then I'll know Si Control can do anything!) __________ Monday morn. 9/6/65 10 A.M Radio says Betsy has changed direction and is moving toward Florida coast! But from what radio says... it is too far down for Cape. So am going to work to take her in sideways, now... which should spark Cape K. Note:!! Sat. evening, while trying to stop Betsy so I could turn her around (after she'd gone past Cape K.) I drew a "stop line" on my maps - see "A" clips - and showed to the Si's. Today, Monday, NY Times explained that what stopped Betsy was a "high pressure ridge," where I drew my line. See clip attached here. Mon. afternoon - Radio announcers said: "When the citizens of Southern Florida went to bed last night before 11:30, they had no way of knowing that when they woke up this morning Hurricane Betsy had done something a hurricane is never supposed to do! Turned around and gone south!" Mon. evening 8 P.M. Am using various PK techniques - plus communication with Si Control, to get Betsy to turn ("slowly at first") and go back up the edge of the Florida Coast - thru Miami to Cape Kennedy. So far: (1) I took her in sight to the target, but short of it. (2) I stopped her. (3) I got her to reverse direction from N to S, figuring to U-turn her. But... so far she hasn't U-turned, dammit!! 08/02/2025 14:51 ( 3 === Page 97 of 140 9-4-65 p4 Tues. morn 9/7/65 Betsy has stopped exactly as per the PK line I drew on map last night - to stop her from going on South. Now to make a "bank shot" with her against my 2 PK walls, to "bank" her in the side pocket - Cape Kennedy. (Put more power into Betsy.) Noon: Removed Betsy's brain, ears, eyes, guide units - then put them back, but repositioned to take her North and a bit West, to the Cape. Note: She has stopped twice as I asked her to do - and as per "PK wall." [Diagram showing a circle labeled "F.F." and a smaller circle labeled "ck" with arrows and lines representing paths and walls] 3:15 P.M. Betsy has started moving... South, dammit!! Am stopping light, sound, etc. from Cape. Am putting 10x Betsy's force & power in front of her, to Cape K. gently push her back North (reversing her direction) toward the target, Cape Kennedy. [Diagram showing a large circle labeled "BETSY" with eyes, positioned above a horizontal line labeled "PK STOP LINE". Two diagonal lines labeled "10-H PK" form a wedge shape pointing towards the circle. An arrow points from "Miami" towards the circle.] 6:30 PM 9/7 BETSY HAS CHANGED DIRECTION AGAIN, AS PER MY MAP - GOING WEST NOW, ON THE "STOP" LINE INSTEAD OF SOUTH. MUST WAIT UNTIL IT HITS MIAMI - THEN TURN HER NORTH! (AM TRYING, BY MAP AND MENTAL - TO SWING HER UP. 11 PM 9/7 AM WORKING TO PUSH BETSY WEST-NORTHWEST STRAIGHT UP TO TARGET, CAPE K.

Also, as a bonus, she racked up Cape Kennedy Missile Tracking Stations in Bahamas. As an added bonus, she racked up two huge military bases in Key West, (Navy Base and Air Base.) Am making new map now - and consulting with Si's - bring Betsy full-circle around to bullseye on the Cape. Thursday morn, 9/9/65 Betsy won't circle. So will try to direct her to Michoud Space (Titan) Complex near New Orleans. Afternoon She changed direction (was overshooting Michoud) and is now going in! Night Betsy is going in exactly where I drew her route to follow on the map! At the juncture of Louisiana - Miss., headed for the Michoud Titan Complex (NASA.) She's on a perfect bullseye course. It's 10:30. If I go to bed - she might veer away. So - armed with coffee & cigars, it will be a late late vigil!! Friday morn., 9/10/65 Hit!!! Right on target. Came in on top of New Orleans - thereby Michoud. Will see now if I can get her to make a full circle back. Friday night - She's no longer a hurricane. Am putting fresh units in her to try to bring her back to hurricane life. === Page 99 of 140 Wednesday, Sept. 8, 1965 Lorne & Rick Editor, The Philadelphia Bulletin "IT'S HARD TO MAKE A HURRICANE TURN LEFT" ...but I just finished doing it. This has to be one of the most unusual accounts ever reported...if indeed it does reach print. It is true and factual. But if this newspaper is brave enough to print the story, it must be understood by the readers that the newspaper does not condone the actions taken by the writer; nor does the newspaper necessarily believe the account as true. As "The Rain Maker" in Philadelphia, however (Jack McKinny "Night Talk Show" and Ed Harvey "Talk of Philadelphia Show) I, Ted Owens, assure the reader that every word of this account is absolutely true and accurate. You say it's impossible for a human being to influence a hurricane? Nonsense! I did it in 1964...ran three hurricanes (Cleo, Dora and Isbell) across the Cape Kennedy area. Had Hurricane Gladys almost there in the same spot, but lost control of her at the last minute, and she slid up the coast.) You say they just "happened" to come that way? Nope. Wrong again, friend. In July, 1964, I sent letters to Cape Kennedy Space Center, the State Department, and other government agencies, that I was "declaring a one-man war" on the area from Daytona Beach to Miami...nicknamed "Electro". I told them all that I would run hurricanes into this area, as well as lightning strikes. A few weeks later lightning struck the Titan Missile at the Cape; also struck and knocked out of commission its ground controls. An accident, you say? How? The Titan Missile stood on a lightning-proof pad. NASA has never figured that one out. You see, in 1963, I discovered a revolutionary method of weather control. This method enabled me to make small storms for local areas, or big storms for areas far away, geographically. This phenomenon is under- === Page 100 of 140 9-8-65 p2 standable in the context of parapsychology...where time and space are not prohibitive. After making storm after storm, without failing, for months, I wrote to the U. S. Government about my discovery...but could get no answer. Imagine what the U. S. could do with this amazing discovery! I certainly would not have to worry about drought! And hurricanes could be used constructively. If you don't think so...New York City could use about three, right now! At any rate, by "declaring war" against Cape Kennedy, I hoped to get the U. S. Government's attention, thus their cooperation in utilizing this rare ability and discovery. But no...even after the Titan lightning strike and three hurricanes; almost a fourth, in their front yard...not a word from the Government. So this year, July 7, 1965, I wrote to NASA and all government agencies thusly: "Just a note to tell you that have begun my PK work now (they know me as PK Man, not "The Rain Maker") as I did last July on...to start hurricanes south of Florida and then guide them to Florida, and across Cape Kennedy." Also I warned them of lightning strikes again this year. About one month later, August 4, 1965 (the day I spent four grueling but fun hours on the Jack McKinney "Night Talk" Show, explaining all this) lightning struck the Moon Rocket Pad at Cape Kennedy. I also wrote Mr. Dunn, Chief of the Hurricane Center in Miami, about all this (in 1964 and again this year, 1965) telling him that if I missed my electro target, southern Florida, then I would take the hurricane away from the east coast so that it would not come up into the northeast coast area. (This just happened with Betsy, if you will think about it.) Now, you have just seen Hurricane Betsy do everything but turn a somersault. All of the newspaper writers have described her as "freakish." But she isn't, really. When she was "born," August 27, she pointed directly === Page 101 of 140 9-8-65 p3 5 at the target, "Electro"..........southern Florida. When she got to Guadaloupe Island, about August 28, she swung around to the north. For several days I struggled to get her back onto the target, Electro. August 31 I turned her, but now she had swung too far, and pointed south. So more work on the maps, and along my specialized lines. Slowly she turned, and once more ran toward the target. Then she began to swing up again, out of line with Electro. Too far in a northwest direction that would put her in Georgia, and lose my shot. I worked for about four days to correct this, and drew a "P K line" that I did not want her to cross. She stopped right at the line, and stalled. Now, Betsy had gotten above Cape Kennedy..........and she did not want to go sideways at all..........so I knew I had to take her backwards, down below Miami, and start her upward again, in the same path I took Cleo, last year. This "putting a hurricane into reverse" I couldn't do last year, although I tried several times. But this year I figured out how to do it, applied the method, and lo and behold Betsy backed up into the Bahamas! (This, incidentally, put a crimp in the Cape Kennedy missile-tracking machinery in that area.) I had drawn a PK line down there, because I didn't want her to go straight south..........and she stopped right on the line, and stalled, as before. I did several other things to bring her over into position in front of Miami..........and over she went. Since her radius was 600 miles, and the Cape was just a couple of hundred miles from Miami, am sure the Space Center felt her breezes. At any rate, it was a "hit" in parapsychological parlance. At this point Betsy got out of control and went on into the Gulf, having done her duty pretty well in harassing the U. S. Military. I repeat to you, as I have repeated to the U. S. Government..........think, just think, what this country, the U. S., could do with this discovery! But do you know what? Guess who knows for sure that these hurricanes 08/02/2025 15:28 === Page 102 of 140 9-8-65 p4 in 1964 were controlled...that they do not wander around by accident? Russia! Yes, a story from Moscow, dated September 30, 1964, AP, went like this: "U. S. SAID WAGING WEATHER WAR" "A Soviet Colonel charged in Moscow Wednesday that the Pentagon has directed United States scientists to work out ways of directing hurricanes toward Communist countries. (Cuba) The charge was made by Col. I. Zheltikov in the Soviet defense ministry newspaper Krasnaya Zvezda (Red Star.) He also claimed ...etc." I was greatly amused by this, and wrote to the Kremlin that the U. S. would hardly be running its own controlled hurricanes across the Cape Kennedy area, as was happening at the time. And after Betsy, of course, not running over Cuba...I imagine they know this to be a fact. Betsy would have run over Cuba. All I had to do was keep her in a straight line, instead of turning her. Finally you, the reader, say, "Well, you should be shot. Hanged. Spat upon. Shame on you, if you can do what you say!" Not so, gentle reader. What I have done is harass the U. S. Military, true...but for a relatively short time. This revolutionary weather-control method that I have stumbled upon, which works like a charm most of the time, could be of inestimable value to our country, the United States, in the long long years ahead. If, that is, the Government will ever pay attention and do something about utilizing it. Now, let's see...Betsy...the next hurricane starts with a "CE, doesn't it? You, the reader, can have an interesting time on the sidelines now, watching the action. You know the strange duel that is going on. It could even be more fun than watching a pro football game, yes?

The dead man was identified as A. Trieb, 33, of Mitchell, S. D., one construction worker was hospitalized and four others were treated and released at a base medical center. A spokesman for the Army Corps of Engineers, overseer of the construction under way here, said the men were pouring concrete on the 40-foot level of the launch complex when lightning traveled down the crane's cables to the wet concrete. Workers standing near the concrete were burned and knocked down by the flash.

Dear Mr. Dunn: You and I are going to have some fun this hurricane season. I am the man who wrote you in 1964. I successfully ran three hurricanes across the Cape Kennedy area...and also managed to direct one to the Michoud Space Complex in Louisiana. Last year I discovered a method of making hurricanes (have sent out 1,000 hurricane-hunter groups of PK (psychokineses) several months ago...) then guiding them; and bringing them to life after they die. Brought 2 back to life, last year. Last year I managed to make the hurricane hook left into Florida; a first in a century, the papers said. Also Cleo followed my "PK" map. And one other...I forget offhand now, not having my books at hand. Nevertheless, let us have a game...Dunn versus P K Man. I am producing hurricanes and typhoons now. But I am interested only in the hurricanes, insofar as I can guide them to target-area...Daytona Beach to Miami...which area is named "Electro." You and the U.S. Government try to stop them...and I will bring them in. It will be very interesting. Even "seeding" will not stop them, because I have done a little something with the PK to beat seeding. -- NOTE: THEY COULDN'T SEED BETSY!!! 9/7/65. I was going to bring them up the East Coast in order to bring rain to New York...but was rejected by everyone when I offered to break the East Coast drought...so now I am going to do this. After the hurricanes either hit the target, Electro...or get away from me completely (only one did last year...the rest were hits) then I will take them off to the right as soon as they draw near Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and send them off to sea. Do not take this lightly. I warn you most seriously. You would be well advised to contact Central Intelligence Agency and NASA for copies of my file, before you pass this letter off as a "crank" letter. And, as I wrote you last year, would greatly appreciate it if you would name one hurricane after my daughter Lornie...Hurricane Lornie. Respectfully, Ted Owens (P K Man) 1114 Spruce, #33 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. NE COAST PK WALL FLA. DURING THIS ACTION WITH BETSY, I DISCOVERED METHOD OF REVERSING HER DIRECTION, FOR FIRST TIME. SO DIDN'T HAVE TO SEND HER OFF THE RIGHT. === Page 106 of 140 Copy and Rick and Lorne Kids - I've dared CIA Pres. Johnson to have govt. men observe me doing this! P.S. Am working on producing three simultaneous hurricanes. Monday, September 13, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Well...am going to give you a most unusual letter. You will probably never get another like it. A day by day, running account of my work with Hurricane Betsy...from the time she was "born" until she hit target... then second target. During the action, I was successful in getting her to turn around; also she went back and picked up the targets she missed on her first pass, in the Bahamas (see my maps.) (A) This was one of my first maps...working in unison with the Si's (saucer intelligences.) I drew the path I wanted Betsy to follow, and placed the path in three frames (force fields). It did excellently in the first two frames, then caught the edge of the third frame and followed it up. (B) Another early map. Bear in mind that I did this all last year with my children around me, watching...and with the same successful results. For verification: Lorne and Rick Owens, c/o Shannon, 505 S. Osage St., #3, Inglewood, California. In the newspaper clip here, is humorous to note that "the eastern Caribbean is a notoriously unfavorable location for the development of tropical storms or the intensification of existing storms." This optimistic gentleman was the Miami forecaster, Arnold Sugg. Hidden inside this same clip where you can't see it is another dandy. "A forecaster in Miami described it (Betsy) as a weak storm, with little chance of intensifying significantly. (C) Here you have poor Betsy "dissipating...and she was demoted to a tropical storm. (So at this point I put a great deal of "PK" into Betsy, to give her strength. Dr. Cecil Gentry, head of the Hurricane-Research-Laboratory, in Puerto Rico, said: "It's a weak storm and conditions at this time do not lead to its intensifying. No, correction...that was said by Miami hurricane forecaster Raymond Kraft. (They were considering seeding Betsy, so I put some special effects into Betsy that would give her a chance against the planes.) After that...they couldn't seed. She grew violent. (D) In this interesting clip, the Weather Bureau says "Betsy probably would not hit the multimillion-dollar tracking stations with its worst punch." The Weather Bureau further said it expected an even more northerly track Thursday, easing the threat to the southern tip of the 750-mile Bahamas chain. Here Mr. Dunn was correct...of all the forecasters...when he noted that Betsy "is not moving in perfectly straight lines, but its net movement is almost due west." (E) Here the Weather Bureau...which is having an awful time predicting accurately...says the small but dangerous hurricane posed a threat to Georgia and the Carolinas...there was a better than even chance the storm might never touch land at all." Forecaster Sam Pierce said: "I'd say chances are better than 50-50 that it (Betsy) will not hit any part of the East Coast of the United States." My..so many people..so wrong...the hurricane is dissipated...it won't hit the East Coast...it's going up into the Carolinas. (F) Here Raymond Kraft, forecaster, says "About the only consolation you 08/02/2025 15:28 === Page 107 of 140 9/13/65 p2 2 have is when it (Betsy) gets level with your latitude, the chances are pretty slim it will turn back." Wrong again. (G) I had brought Betsy in on a perfect bullseye...when she veered at the last minute. So I had to stop her before she went too far. I drew a PK Wall to stop her (working with the Si's and their craft.) She did stop. (H) Here Robert McCaslin, forecaster, utters his fearless predictions. "If the turn persists," he said (toward the north) "we can take South Carolina off the hook, and maybe later the entire coast. -- the turn has started and we expect it to continue." Wrong again. (I) Is my map, showing my PK "stop" line...plus the disposition of my saucer friends around Betsy, helping in their own way. (J) Map showing track I drew for Betsy to follow (with a sharper turn to the right than she was going at the time...which she took, faithfully.) (K) Final map...my own, to go with the newspaper clip map...crude but effective. Betsy followed it right in. ---------- Also enclosed are my daily entries in my log, as I constantly worked to guide Betsy. Bear in mind that my wife watched me constantly...all maps were drawn and used before Betsy made her moves...and Betsy replied to my intelligence and guidance faithfully, most of the time...enough to hit both targets, Florida and Michoud. Since all of the forecasters were wrong, practically all of the time, it is too bad that the Weather Bureau wouldn't let me forecast...for I could have told them, before Betsy was born, that chances were 9-1 that Betsy would hit Florida, then about 5-1 she would hit Michoud. As a matter of fact, much damage and many lives could have been saved if the U.S. Government had believed me...months ago...and accepted my services. If they didn't accept, they might have at least told my story, so that many people who might believe that I could guide a hurricane to Florida, then to Michoud...could take evasive action accordingly. As a matter of fact, some newspaper could do a great service by telling my story...so that people in the target areas can ignore the expert weather forecasters, and take cover regardless. Loss of life is deeply regretted. Yet how else can I prove to the U.S. Government that I can control weather, unless I demonstrate? I have already offered to President Johnson to end the drought in the Northeast Coast, no fee...but get no answer. Using my ability and power...could save perhaps thousands and thousands of lives in the years to come, warding off hurricanes and typhoons, and ending droughts. Ted Owens - P K Man - "The Rain Maker" 08/02/2025 15:28 === Page 108 of 140 9/13/65 Monday Sept. 13, 1965 Dear Rick: Thanks for the clippings. Several of them are valuable to me, very. Take the saucer clipping...what jolted me was the mention there that the Si's guide their craft by "mental waves." This is exactly what I have in my notebook...but I got mine straight from the Si's themselves. They described how they have a control board made of octagonal colored lights. They merely have to think which way to go, and their craft obeys... powered and controlled by the big, "mother control craft"...way off somewhere else. Of course, the news in your letter is old by now. I succeeded in doing what we couldn't do in Myrtle Beach...get the 'cane to back up, or reverse. Remember how we tried? But at that time I didn't have the Si's to work with, either. This time I did. I drew a PK Line on the map just above Cape Kennedy to stop the 'cane, and it stopped. Then I took out its brain, eyes, ears, and guides...and put them back in reverse position...and it worked like a charm, when it took off again, it went forwards, backwards. Sure did make the weather experts look silly, eh? But I simply could not get her to go up, into the Cape, when she got to my next PK Line, which was just below Miami. She turned, as I wanted her to, but then went straight ahead west...into the Gulf...so I worked feverishly (stayed up half the night) to direct her to the huge Michoud Saturn complex (NASA). It was a bullseye. It is 43 miles outside New Orleans, and the 'cane was 600 miles wide. You figure out what a hit it was. That made two hits with one 'cane; a new first...as well as backing up the 'cane...another new first. Honey, I told you two weeks ago that I had cut loose from Zachow, when he asked me to just "quit the Si's" if they didn't furnish me with money. 07/25/2025 16:24 === Page 109 of 140 9/13/65 p2 2 I concur that he was spying...he wanted to know what I had and how I was doing it. And I showed him. Of course, the joker is...if he tries to use the method. No more Zachow. But I do not believe he was commie...or he would even help me go on with my work, which is a bit rough on the U.S., you know. I mean, where my PK hits...be it hurricane form or Gemini-5 form...the grass doesn't grow again, figuratively speaking. So I believe he was from the U.S. Air Force, pretending to be friendly to get "inside" me and find out what I had, so they could pooh-pooh me. They might have thought I was some kind of nut. When they found it that I was for real, and my work for real, then the next logical step would be to try to stop me with their funny about "giving the Si's a mandate" to either support me financially, or I quit them, the Si's. Ha. Momma sent her letter to you in Lornie's letter. She'll send another one. Yesterday (you know how she is) she asked me if Louisiana was a city, and what state it was in. Bless her heart. She's so sweet. She might not know very much in the way of factual knowledge, but she's a winner when it comes to being "all heart". Be a good boy, and mind Pat. I love you.

Then he dances some more. But we have to applaud. Affectionate? He gives us hugs and kisses constantly. When I am lying down, sleeping, he'll come over and kiss me on the cheeks a lot, and put his little hand on my cheek and pat pat pat away, gently. We've had a little difficulty with him throwing things...like chairs, small tables, anything he can pick up. Believe me. He takes a kitchen chair, heaves it up, and throws it. Martha is afraid to scold him, because if she makes him mad, he attacks. I think you've seen that...but now he's practiced up. He goes in like a football tackle, grabs a leg, and bites. If you try to fend him off with an arm or hand, he bites that. He does have a spirited temper. Yesterday he astonished me by pointing to his ear, then to the radio. He wanted to hear music on the radio. This is the way he communicates. Am glad to hear that everything is going well there. Here it is the usual chaos. A job today; no job tomorrow. Worked three days last week. No night clubs in town worth spitting at, for my shows. No car to get out with, to find a better place. So, meanwhile, East Lynne. Fudge! You've mastered the course, so you know what it is. But we are making it, the while.

DARLING Of The Bulletin Staff A rainmaker has come to Philadelphia. He says he'll break the drought for $10,000--a bargain rate. "I'd want $50,000 to do it in New York," he said. He's been here since the first of July. He said he whomped up the big storm that hit the city the weekend of July 11--remember? -- the first and only soaking rain we've had since December. "It wasn't easy," he noted. "I had to work on it for more than a week." Working on it, he said, requires a combination of parapsychology and "some things my grandfather told me about the way the Apache Indians used to make rain." The rainmaker is a slightly balding, well-fed man in his middle 40s with a pleasant smile and an engaging personality. **Knife-Thrower in Circus** His name is Ted Owens and he was once a professional knife-thrower with the circus. "I'm probably the best knife-thrower in the country," he said, modestly. He wrote a letter to The Bulletin as soon as he arrived in the city and said he was working on a big rainstorm. He wrote another letter after the storm hit, pointed out that he had made everybody happy, and explained why: "I live here now and I do not like hot, dry weather. Therefore Philadelphia will be wetter and cooler than the rest of the U. S. this summer. The people here are lucky . . ." He also said he was working on another storm for Philadelphia for the next weekend. The rain came, a bit north of the city, but enough to produce a good downpour here and .8 of an inch in Montgomery County. **Letter Arrives** The letter came the next day--Monday, July 19. "Well, I told you," wrote the rainmaker. "You just enjoyed my storm which I referred to in my letter. I was right there in Rittenhouse Square yesterday, calling down the storm and especially the lightning, which is my trademark." He signed his name THE RAINMAKER, c-o Owens. He was finally located in a Spruce st. hotel. He said he was born in Indiana, has had 20 different "professions" besides knife-throwing and studied extrasensory perception at Duke University. **Says Combination Works** He was living in Phoenix, Ariz. in 1963, he said, when he decided to try combining ESP with the Apache Indian rainmaking act. "The Indians had a good thing going but they didn't really know what they were doing," he said. "They thought they had to dance and take drugs and that sort of thing." To his surprise, the combination worked and he got "eight violent storms in five days," he said. He opened one of three well-stuffed briefcases and pulled out a folder containing newspaper clippings of each of the eight storms. The clippings were neatly pasted up, numbered and dated. "This proves it," he said. "The storms nearly wrecked that part of Arizona." **Our House Hit** One bolt of lightning hit his own house. He said he wasn't scared, "just amused." He moved to Los Angeles and said he produced some rainstorms which culminated in the big landslides of November, 1964. The rainmaker said he doesn't really want to hurt anyone. Pictures of storm damage--houses with the roofs blown off, automobiles wrecked by falling trees--bothered him at first. But he said he got used to them. He went to Washington, D. C. to try to explain his talent for producing storms to the government. **Turned Down by Government** He took all three briefcases along to prove his point. But, he said, he couldn't make the right contacts. Since the government didn't want his information for free, he decided to try at least to make a living out of it. He said he came to Philadelphia because it is in the center of the present drought area and he wanted to interest some big cities in buying his services. He was reluctant to explain just how he went about producing a storm--not that there was any big secret to it, he said, but because it is a complicated business. **Visual Imagery** "It's partly a matter of contacting the intelligence behind nature," he said. "It also involves imagery." To explain visual imagery, he took a piece of paper and wrote numbers from one to 20 down the left side. He handed the paper to an observer and told him to write down an object after each number, calling out the number and the object as he did so. 1. Umbrella. 2. Puddle. 3. Camera. 4. House, etc. Without looking at the paper, he read off the numbers and the objects, first going from one to 20; then from 20 back to one. He had the observer pick out numbers at random, and he called off the corresponding object. Then he had the observer call the objects and he gave their numbers. Maybe the rainmaker has just been lucky with storms. But there's certainly nothing wrong with his visual imagery. Love to my boy Rick...

The janitor, Anton van Leeuwenhoek, swept out the city hall of Delft in the 17th century, the National Geographic Society says. Townspeople thought he was a little daft because he ground chunks of glass into lenses. They were sure he was crazy when he told them he had looked through one of his lenses into a drop of water, and had seen hundreds of small creatures scurrying about. But Britain's Royal Society was more attentive: Leeuwenhoek had discovered germs. Amateurs have made important discoveries in every field of science. Knowledge of dinosaurs was given to the world by an English country doctor, Gideon Mantell, who liked to pick up fossils; the principles of heredity by an Austrian abbot, Gregor Mendel; oxygen by an English Unitarian theologian, Joseph Priestley, and the Kodachrome color photography process by two American musicians, Lee Godowsky and Leopold Mannes, who experimented in hotel rooms while on tour. Even today, a time of tremendous advances in professional science, the amateur appears in no danger of extinction. There are so many thousands of amateur rocket scientists at work that the American Rocket Society issued a booklet warning them of the risks they run. Only a few years ago an English architect, Michael Ventris, solved a puzzle that had long tormented archeologists -- the decipherment of an ancient language of Crete and Greece known as Minoan Linear B. In the United States, another amateur archeologist, a onetime dishwasher, discovered the remains of Thoreau's cabin at Walden Pond. Other sparetime archeologists were the first to investigate Russell Cave, an Alabama cavern inhabited 9,000 years ago. Two teen-age radio hams astounded the scientific community in 1960 by transmitting signals to each other with radio waves bounced off a satellite. A quarter of a century earlier another ham, Grote Reber of Wheaton, Ill., used his own time and money to build the world's first radio-telescope in his back yard. Horst Gerstenkorn, an amateur astronomer, made computations tracing the position of the moon backward in history and suggested, in 1954, that the moon was a small planet captured long ago by the earth's gravitational field. His work was praised in Science, the organ of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The writer expressed amazement that at a time when billions of dollars and rubles are being spent on government moon programs, "a high school teacher having no other assets than his interest and his free time" could still make a contribution. Some observers believe that breakthroughs in each field of science will often come from amateurs. The amateur lacks the professional's training laboratories, staff, and prestige, but he is free to follow his own interests and imagination; he does not have to worry about getting quick results or losing status in the "publish or perish" world. His very ignorance may help sometimes. The German psychiatrist Hans Berger discovered brain waves because, unlike the experts, he didn't know they were regarded as an impossibility. An amateur can still find plenty to do. Take entomology: The world may support 2,000,000 to 10,000,000 insect species. The professionals have hardly begun to catalogue them, let alone record their habits. An amateur can go to work today in his own backyard. === Page 115 of 140 MONDAY SEPT. 13, 1965 DEAR LORNIE AND RICK, .......... AT THIS POINT I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO GO OVER WITH YOU, MY CHILDREN, MY INTENT AND PURPOSE. AS YOU WELL KNOW, WHEN I DISCOVERED THAT I HAD SOMEHOW OBTAINED A POWER AND ABILITY... NOT KNOWN OTHERWISE TO MANKIND... I DETERMINED TO USE THIS POWER AND ABILITY (WHICH WE CALLED "PK") FOR THE CONSTRUCTIVE GOOD OF THE UNITED STATES, AND THEN THE COMPLETE WORLD PICTURE. ... BUT THE U.S. GOVERNMENT WOULD NOT ACCEPT MY WORK... SO I DETERMINED TO PROVE MY POWER AND ABILITY TO THE U.S. THE ONLY WAY POSSIBLE... BY DEMONSTRATIONS OF MY SYSTEM, FIRST PREDICTING WHAT WAS TO COME, TO VARIOUS GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, SO THAT WHEN IT HAPPENED THEY WOULD KNOW THAT IT WAS NO ACCIDENT. FOR OVER A YEAR I HAVE HARASSED THE GOVT. AND THE MILITARY, WITH THIS "PK" SYSTEM. IT HAS COST LIVES, AND FIVE TO TEN BILLION DOLLARS, IN DAMAGE. ("BETSY" ALONE HAS CAUSED ONE BILLION IN DAMAGE.) BUT THIS IS ONLY A FLY-SPECK IN TIME. ONCE MY SYSTEM IS ACCEPTED AND USED, IN COUNTLESS WAYS (TO DIVERT HURRICANES, TORNADOS, TYPHOONS... TO BRING PEACE, WHERE THERE IS WAR, ETC.) COUNTLESS LIVES WILL BE SAVED. IT IS A CASE OF THE PATIENT TAKING A LITTLE PAIN IN ORDER TO SURVIVE. IT IS A CASE OF LOSING A LITTLE, TO GAIN A LOT.

Love, Dad (PK Man) === Page 117 of 140 9-13-65 Loriest Rick P3-4 PK Man - "The Rain Maker" The Saturday Sermon A Fool There Was By DR. FREDERICK BROWN HARRIS Chaplain, United States Senate Washington--FOOL is a barbed word. When hurled it usually carries a stigma. A fool is supposed to be one unbalanced, unable to render a reasonable judgment. A fool is one who plunges ahead with no regard for consequences, who scorns safety first and who refuses to conform. Dr. Harris The old adage declares--"Fools rush in where angels fear to tread." "The greatest fool," says Shaftesbury, "is one who thinks he knows with certainty that which he has least studied and of which he is most profoundly ignorant." A foolscap on dunces relegated to a corner in the school of life is a fit insignia. But history makes clear that across the centuries a foolscap often has been put on the wrong head. FOOL is often the label pasted on a wise man by those about him who are ignorant and timid. Those that one generation has pilloried as fools have more than once turned out to be the wisest of their day and the benefactors of all humanity. It is literally true that the world has moved forward on the legs of the alleged fools! Socrates was a laughing stock on the public streets of Athens because he refused all sensible advice. He was such a fool that he finally drank the hemlock. Cato was held up to ridicule in Rome because the venal citizens of that great capital called him a fool for refusing bribes. When George Stephenson proposed to draw a train of cars by steam at the rate of 14 miles an hour he was regarded as a fit candidate for the madhouse. When Robert Fulton--in whose honor a memorial stamp has been issued in this year 1965--announced his intention to navigate the Hudson River on a steamboat, his idea was ridiculed by men of sense and science as "the silliest that ever entered a silly brain." When William Carey, father of the modern missionary movement, set about sending a group of missionaries to India he was publicly denounced in the House of Commons and his plan was referred to as "the project of a lunatic." Because he "risked the thing" Charles A. Lindbergh, who disappeared over the ocean in a little plane, now a museum magnet for thousands, was dubbed a "flying fool." When he saw a fleet of fishing boats he records, "I flew down, almost touching the craft, and yelled at them asking if I was on the right road to Ireland. They just stared! Maybe they thought I was a crazy fool. An hour later I saw land." Over our 49th state, Alaska, is today a bright rainbow of promise as its marvelous resources are developed. But the statesman who saw its potential greatness and secured it for a song, was on all sides called a fool and the whole transaction was labeled "Seward's folly!" What a volume could be written entitled--Posterity's Appraisal of Men Whom Their Own Age Called Fools! When we thrill, gratefully, at the surgical miracles of today performed in the hospitals of every city, we cannot forget the doctors willing to be called fools even as was Pasteur by the medical lights of his day. When the first abdominal operation in the history of surgery was performed by a country doctor down in Kentucky, a frenzied mob patroled the house for two hours ready to lynch the "fool doctor" if the patient died. But with a nerve that failed not, and a hand that did not falter, he went ahead. The life of the woman involved was saved. A Poet's Words Today medical science pays its high tribute to the man who dared the fury of a mob to blaze a new path in surgery. Ah, the valiant men marching ahead of their time who by their contemporaries were decked with foolscaps! A poet listening not to the harsh billingsgate of the day, but hearing the appraisal of the long years, wrote-- Give us now and then a man And life will crown him king; Just to take the consequence Just to risk the thing. Paul Suffered, Too Long centuries ago, Paul, the Apostle, who had suffered all things and had been called almost every vile name, declared he was willing to go even farther. He said he was willing to be called a fool for the sake of the Christ he served. There are those today in this time of destiny who, God forgive them for their ignorance when the truth is so easily available, call certain God-inspired leaders, who in the free world are defying the colossal forces of atheistic communism, fools. But, standing for spiritual verities, and freedom, they are God's fools. Those who sense the real issues of this age on ages telling are crying out in anguish of soul--"Wanted, more fools with unquenchable faith in the precious things we hold nearest our hearts." The world today calls loudly for "fools for Christ's sake" which means--for humanity everywhere threatened by those who have already advanced over half the earth with shackles of slavery. My soul lift up thine eyes; Oh child, in this world's school Wilt thou be counted wise, Or just a fool? 08/02/2025 15:28 === Page 118 of 140 9-13-65 Lomie & Rick P 34 THE NEW YORK TIMES, SUNDAY, AUGUST 22, # AMATEUR EFFORTS BENEFIT SCIENCE ## Many Important Discoveries Made in Spare Time WASHINGTON--A janitor, a physician, a Roman Catholic monk, a Unitarian minister, two musicians, and an architect swell the ranks of amateur scientists.

C. 20007 Dear Miss Raley: You ask for a brief outline of the story that I have for Mr. Pearson. That "brief" makes it difficult, because of the nature of the story (which the U.S. Government is hushing up...has clamped the lid on.) Never has Mr. Pearson ever had a story of this size or importance...and I will grant you that he's had some important ones. To indicate its importance - Betsy need not have devastated Miami or New Orleans. Gemini-5 did not have to have its many difficulties. The Flying Laboratory sent up recently from Cape Kennedy (OSO) did not have to accidentally explode at its third stage, August 25, 1965. And so on. Am enclosing valued file copies. Please return them. They are a scattered few pieces of my bulging files at home. But you wanted a brief outline, and for my story... this much material, at least, is brief. Let's start in Philadelphia, to explain who I am, what I do. "A" (see enclosed) explains that I am called 'The Rain Maker." I have delivered the only rain in Philadelphia since July (except for one small drizzle.) I wrote the local papers before the storms occurred (one to two weeks before) telling them. Jack McKinny, "Night Talk", WCAU Radio here...asked me to appear for an hour on August 4 on his radio show. So I made a storm that night, which began when I walked into the radio station at 10 PM and ended when I came out at 2 AM. After my hour, then a U.S. Senator was to follow, then Jack Carter, the famous comedian. McKinny called them and cancelled them - and kept me on the program for four hours, non-stop. The following Friday Ed Harve, "Talk of Philadelphia" radio show, asked me to be on his program the following Monday - and make it rain that day to coincide with my appearance. I told him that I would do my best. The storm which hit Philadelphia that day that I was on his program flooded Philadelphia. Lightning bolts struck scores of homes; hit a power station, and a police radio towers. And so on. I am trying to lead into this gradually, because I have discovered how to do something which no other human has ever done. Mr. George Clark, Central Intelligence Agency, Washington 25, D. C., has an almost-complete file of all my work. Mr. Eastwood, Inventions Department, NASA, Washington, D. C., has much the same. Mrs. Louisa Rhine, P.O. Box 46, Rt. 3, Hillsboro, North Carolina, has an almost-complete file also. She is the famous author-scientist wife of Dr. J. B. Rhine, famed parapsychologist (ESP) at Duke. I spent hours in Washington with "George Clark", and with Eastwood at NASA; also with a Mr. Dunn at CIA. 08/02/2025 15:28 === Page 120 of 140 9/15/65 p2 They had plenty of proof of my incredible work! For instance, see "B". To check this, Jack McKinny, on a six-state radio hook-up, called Mrs. Mangels, who verified the authenticity of it...as well as others. "C" - a prediction sent to Clark, CIA, four days before it developed. Note on the newspaper clip the term "symbolic" just as I described it. Better add here that as far as NASA, CIA, Space Center Cape Kennedy, etc., are concerned - I am known as "P K Man." PK stands for psychokinesis, a parapsychological term. "D" is a prediction made re President Johnson, which came true. Self-explanatory. Made to Hugh Lynn Cayce, son of Edgar Cayce, at A.R.E. at Virginia Beach. My family was travelling through, and we stayed there one day. Enough. Have many more of these in my files. Now, what is so important? See letter attached to "E" - MEMO TO THE PEOPLE OF THE U.S. (This was sent to the State Department, the President, Space Center, etc., in August of 1964. But I had warned the Cape, in early July letters. In other words, I started working with my amazing system...against the forces of the U. S. Government, as an experiment...in early July, 1964. In U. S. News and World Report, Sept. 21, 1964: "Before the hurricane blows fell on Florida in August and September, the State had had only one destructive hurricane in the past 13 years. The northeastern Florida area was hit for the first time this century. After a full of years, why had successive hurricanes suddenly battered the coast?" Why, indeed, Miss Raley. As a matter of fact - why have four hurricanes hit the area of Daytona Beach to Miami, since just last July? Why did two hurricanes hit the New Orleans area...43 miles from NASA's huge Saturn Missile Complex? (I'll answer that in the paragraph following this one.) In today's paper, Phila. Inquirer, article by John O'Brien: "U.S. Spends Millions For Disaster Relief"..."Hurricane Betsy...is the latest in the worst spate of natural disasters on record." (Wrong - they were controlled disasters.) "During the fiscal year from July 1, 1964 (when I began my PK work) to July 1, 1965, President Johnson granted requests from 24 Governors for 29 major disaster declarations...and authorized disaster declarations totalling $85,986,100." "Prior to Hurricane Betsy (billion in damages) since July 1 of this year, the President had to make six major disaster declarations, which entailed disaster allocations totalling $44,661,000. Etc." The rest of the article dealt with results from my "PK" work. Now, please re-read "E", second page of Aug. 25 letter attached. Now I'm getting to the point, Miss Raley - unless you've gone to sleep reading all this. "F" of Aug. 30, 1964, to Space Agency, State Department, etc., is self-explanatory. "G" of Sept. 3, 1964, same. "H" of Oct. 4, 1964. I have successfully guided Hurricane Hilda and Hurricane Betsy to the Michoud Saturn Missile Complex. 08/02/2025 15:28 === Page 121 of 140 9/15/65 P3 "I" of Aug. 31, July 7, and Sept. 11, 1965. .......... There is the general idea. But here is the shocker. Mr. Dunn, of CIA, asked me what the causal factor was in my strange system, or ability. I thought then (months ago) that I had managed somehow to communicate with the intelligence behind Nature. However, on July 8 I found out definitely what the "causal factor" was. See "J". By August 4 they, the UFO's (I call them SI's...for saucer intelligences...) had given me a message, which Jack McKinney read on that four-hour radio show, over the air. See "K". .......... Now, my two teen-agers (16 and 15) have watched me hit missiles with PK, and bring them down. They have watched me make, and guide, hurricanes. Etc. They are: Lorne and Rick Owens, c/o Shannon, 505 S. Osage St., #3, Inglewood, California. Feel free to check with them in any way, if you wish. I have offered to CIA and the President to have their men watch me guide hurricanes - tape the process and take pictures, if they like (I work on maps.) I have offered to President Johnson to break the drought on the entire northeastern coast (I can do this.) But no reply from him. Easier, I guess, just to spend a hundred million or so of the taxpayers money to try to figure it out. I will make the same offer to Mr. Pearson. If he can put us up (My wife, baby and I) on his farm for the time it will take then I will break the entire drought on this eastern coast...give New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, etc., as much precipitation as they need to get well....to fill all their rivers, streams, reservoirs, etc. I will do this by making rainstorm after rainstorm...abnormal amounts of rainfall. Also I will guide hurricanes up to New York so that the entire area will benefit from the billions of gallons of water from the hurricanes. Since I have been a court-reporter and an office-manager, it is possible that I could do some typing work at the farm, while I am working on the rainfall and hurricanes. But the rain-making is a seven-day-a-week job. "L" has, on the second page, the main reason Mr. Pearson should try to get this story out from behind the lid the Government has clamped on it. He could thereby save many lives. "M" is yesterday's letter to my children, in California. And the clipped group of documents are in case you are interested enough to read further. There it is, Miss Riley...all true, so help me God. Fantastic though it sounds. The biggest news story certainly of the century...if not further back than that. Think of it...at last man can finally control hurricanes, rain, snow, sunshine, etc. And the system also has other uses. Since the rain which fell on Mr. Pearson's farm in Maryland came from Betsy - then he does indeed owe me a debt of gratitude...for Betsy was "made" by myself. And there will be others. Sincerely, Ted Owens (P K Man, "Rain Maker") 1114 Spruce, #33, Hotel, Phila., Pa. === Page 122 of 140 Thursday, Sept. 16, 1965 Dear Lornie... Thank you very much, honey, for the cigars. I smoked them last evening, and enjoyed them. What box from Washington...? You thought I sent it...but I am not in Washington, honey. Yes, I had great success with Betsy...am that much better this year than last...also now am working in conscious collaboration with the Si's. I can see them, write down what I want, they change it into their writing, then into sound...and poof...it happens. But there is so much happening now, with the Si's, that you don't know about...and I can't put into letters.... They told me just today not to worry about money, house, car, etc., that they are "growing a new brain" in me....containing much wisdom and understanding, like the Bible says...and that my new brain will be worth more than "diamonds, rubies and pearls"...and that what will naturally follow...will be wealth, if I want it. Sounds cockeyed, eh? But all of the facts remain...like a lightning bolt hitting the Moon Rocket Pad...like me guiding Betsy left, right, backwards, then right again...her following, following my directions. The facts remain...thus I know they know what they are talking about. Am glad to hear that your school plans are lining up satisfactorily. Have a lot of fun, and be the good student you were in Washington. You are a good student...and since you have a dear little brother..work with him, gently...leading him, not pushing him...into being a good student, also. Tell him to auto-hyp and tell himself that he can be an A student in anything he wants to be...that he will automatically study hard on that subject. You know what to tell him; you've watched me work with people enough. Seattle might send you a check, one of these days, to send to me. Since I move around, I had to have a permanent address to give them. It will be a substantial check, and of course I need it. As for bills...we haven't any here; as for Washington, nothing. Forget it. I fail to see how it could worry Pat. We only owed a couple of teeny weeny bills in Wash., and they can't do anything out there in California. But at any rate...I certainly am not giving that address to any bill collectors. That irked me. It smacked exactly as of the same tone Jim had when he told me those people didn't want to see us up in San Francisco. You handle any mail that might trickle through to me, honey. Love, Dad 07/25/2025 16:24 === Page 123 of 140 Thursday, Sept. 16, 1965 Dear Rick: Yes, with Betsy I got several firsts...first 'cane to be able to get to Electro and Michoud in one single shot; first 'cane to be able to put in reverse, or opposite direction (had to work both with the 'cane, and with the force field...something we didn't think of last year.); and first 'cane to stop right on the "PK" line I made for it not to cross (did this twice.) All of which goes to show the tremendous control that I have this year, as compared with last year...although 3 hits on Electro last year were not bad. But I got better performance out of Betsy. Even if I didn't get a dead-bullseye on the Cape. Listen...Rick...quit football. Don't you think Daddy knows what he is talking about? You had some terrible head injuries when you were a baby...and it's taken years for the inside of your head to heal (broken blood vessels, etc.) Now all it would take is a tap, and you might be blinded or paralyzed. Show this to Pat, what I am saying. I warned you, told you, in Washington, to stay away from football, honey....also boxing. They are both suckers game. In football, no matter how good you are...you can get hit from the "blind side" ... that is, from where you are not looking. I had a buddy in high school get killed next to me during a high school football game...Earl Carr, Auburn, Indiana, '36. A kid rammed him after a play was over, head and helmet low into Earl's stomach...tore his guts apart inside, and he hemorrhaged to death before they could get him to a hospital. I held his casket at the funeral. Also, currently they are having a tremendous rash of football deaths in high schools and colleges. They recently had 8 boys killed in 6 days; they cannot explain it. Boxing is just as stupid. The gloves hit your head, do not hurt the outside, but tear loose the tiny delicate membranes and blood vessels inside. And since judo is better than boxing...let boxing go and learn judo. Honey...you know my "sixth sense" and ability to see ahead...predict. Do what I tell you, and get away from football and boxing, like they were poison to you..which they are. Basketball...great! I predict you will be a champion at that. That was my best game, and I played it more than anything else. Now, if I wanted to get rid of you, my boy, I would let you play football and wouldn't say a word. Love, Dad 07/25/2025 16:24 === Page 124 of 140 Wed. Sept 22, 1965 Dear Lorrie -- Thank you for the two good cigars! Smoked them tonight after one of Martha's fried chicken suppers. Beau just fell and split his head open -- an inch from his right eye. Lord! We're calming him down. Martha is reading to him. He came in to have me kiss it & make it well. Little as he is, when he gets hurt -- he believes my kiss will make it well. And it does. (Along with my secret system.) Received a letter back today I had sent you kids to 505 S. Osage. Somebody had returned it... not to us but to an office I had worked. And they thoughtfully got it to me. I returned it to you. Wonder how many other letters I've sent -- have been blocked? You wouldn't know. Bet you had a happy birthday. Your school classes look like fun. French -- ugh! Sewing is dandy, if you learn anything from it. And you're good at it. I pity your driver-instructor. Ha! If he knew what I know he'd walk behind the car. (Still, there is reverse gear -- even that wouldn't be safe! Ha ha) Yes -- I met the people. They gave us vegetables. But they, too, are clunk-heads. Am still yearning to meet somebody interesting. Wrong -- power of any kind never gets extinct, honey. If people were afraid of electricity, it would still be around. You dig? Love and kisses -- Dad. 07/25/2025 16:36 === Page 125 of 140 Copy Rick Lornie Wednesday, Oct. 6, 1965 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: President Johnson is not having this operation by accident. If you will glance at my previous correspondence, it spells out the details. I told you that the UFO's had him zero'd in. And they have. And they will continue to have. I have done very poorly these past months; got the newspaper write-up (and so the stock market improved). But nothing has come of it...nobody hired me to break the drought...therefore the stock market is in for a hard time ahead, am afraid. You will see. Sept. 29 two submarines collided off "Electra" (California coast) Oct. 1 two destroyers collided off "Electro" (Florida coast) Oct, 2 two planes collided in Viet Nam. These seemingly separate accidents were not accidents, George...and they were strung like beads on a string...to point out the fact. The UFO's are getting very angry. Ted Owens (PK Man) 1114 Spruce, #33 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania === Page 126 of 140 10/6/65 p2 Copy-Kids (Copy of telegram sent to Mr. George Clark, CIA, 9:30 PM, Thursday, October 27, 1965: "A RARE WARNING. SI'S IN FURY. SEE COPY LETTER NASA BEFORE GEMINI SIX SHOT. KEEP IN MIND VANISHING AGENA ROCKET. UNLESS GOVERNMENT COMPLIES WITH SI'S WISHES THEY WILL UNLEASH TERRIBLE U.S. CATASTROPHE WITHIN TEN DAYS. DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY HAVE IN MIND, BUT LET THE GOVERNMENT BE WARNED. P K MAN (Owens) === Page 127 of 140 Friday, Oct. 15, 1965 Dear Lornie: Thank you for the cigars, hon. I'll smoke them tonight, while watching TV, and think of you. I am doing plenty of things with PK, sweetheart...but mostly I don't care to put it into letters going to L.A. You understand. Some things, okay. But a great deal of it I have throttled down, because of no reaction from Washington. That is, I do a lot now, but am not writing on it. For instance...you either have in your files, or you've seen in mine...numerous letters of warning with regard to President Johnson, these past months. So wham...he lands flat on his back and his GB is cut out, and his kidneys worked on. A major operation, putting him out of commission for a couple of months. But...it's a warning from the Si's, pure and simple. They have him zeroed in...I warned him and the government of it a month ago...so it's up to them if they want to keep ignoring me and the Si's. And if you had been reading the papers you'd have seen aircraft carriers colliding; destroyers colliding; nuclear subs colliding; and planes colliding. Remember my Plane-Sub-Ship PK, started over a year ago...and growing? You'd better believe it! As for my Hurricane-Hunter Groups...they ran clear out of the alphabet in the Pacific...and have re-started on another round of the alphabet...Typhoon C or D was the last one I heard of, on the second round. The HH Groups, you know, cause hurricanes, typhoons, earthquakes, volcanoes to erupt, tornadoes, and floods. They cause, in other words, violent aberrations of the weather and of the earth itself. (Typhoons are hurricanes, but in the Pacific, not the Atlantic, and the HH Groups strike anywhere and everywhere.) As I pointed out in one of my letters to you...they have named a hurricane after you this year, as per my request last year (Laurie, not Lornie, but they never get the name right) and one for Martha, too, as I requested. That Mr. Dunn, Chief of the Hurricane Bureau in Miami, is nice, and evidently has a sense of humor. I am going to issue more HH Groups today, in an effort to produce enough 'canes out of Florida to get you and Martha down on the map in 'cane form. You have a lot of school work, eh? Well, that may keep you out of mischief, ha ha. But I doubt it. Keep me clued in on Rick's "extracurricular" activity. I worry about him. He needs a strong loving hand to guide him, and there he just ain't got it. Love, maybe, but not the judo-type control I can furnish. He'll be a great boy, a winner, if he gets enough special attention with love attached to it. He's so bright he'll run circles around the Shannons and the Bentleys...and get away with murder. You know it. Lots of love, kisses, and hugs -- Daddy. 07/25/2025 16:24 === Page 128 of 140 Friday, Oct. 22, 1965 Dear Rick: As you can see by the enclosed clipping, there is a good basis for my instructing you to stay away from football like it was poison...which it is, for you. This year there have been twenty-one highschool boys killed playing football. I think I know why this is so, but nobody would believe it, so I won't say it. Anyway, stick to basketball, Rick. You are a genius at it, and I predict that you will be a champion basketball player, able to do trick shots that nobody else can...and score more, too. Not much doing for our little group right now. All is quiet, you might say. I have many irons in the fire, but so far, none of them have gotten hot...well, there's one exception to that...one has sort of gotten hot, but there's no contract yet. If this deal does go through, I'll make two thousand a month. I will either be rich, or starve to death...but I'll be damned if I'll ever "just exist" in between. Beau is more fun than when you were with him; he knows more now, plays more games, can say more words...and is very loving and affectionate. Am sending you some pictures soon; those color pictures, you know. Probably be a week or two. With that camera, you need to stand pretty close, or your subject is sort of far away, and it is necessary for a blow-up to be made of the print in order to see the detail. Will say that the pictures are good. Be a good boy, honey, and make your pappy (yo old grey-haired daddy) proud of you, eh? Love and kisses Dad === Page 129 of 140 Thursday Oct. 28, 1965 Dear Lornie - Thanks very much, honey, for the Bering. The Optimos tear up in the mail, but the Berings don't because of the metal tube...you can send Berings anytime, ha ha. Anyway, 1 Bering is better than 2 Optimos. I smoked your cigar after supper last night, while we watched TV. Beau is so cute and darling...he snuggles up in my lap every night, for hours, watching TV with us. We have a dandy TV set...and can get all the channels, including UHF. Your girl friend sounds cute, and am glad that you have some female companionship and friendship. These "queens and princesses" though...ugh. Their values tend to become warped and shallow. Always remember, "All is not gold that glitters." Every time I see a pretty girl I remember that, and wonder if the girl can also cook good; sew good; has a good heart inside the pretty outside; is loyal and honest with her loved ones; and can she fulfill the main female function, that of giving real love and affection. Few can...but some can. It is my hope that you'll fill the bill re the above, and make some man a happy and successful man, some of these days, after you marry him. Because a man's mate can make him happy and successful in the world...or miserable and a bum. I worked here for a Bureau that rehabilitates alcoholics...and had complete access to their files, and studied the cases rather thoroughly. What I tell you was borne out in the histories of most of these men. Am proud of you for making A's in school. That reflects both brains and hard work. Good for you. A's are never just given; they are earned, the hard way. Am doing a great amount of work at this time with PK. Yes, of course I am in contact with the Si's, honey. I have a 2-way communication with them...and can reach them in seconds. Almost instantly. And they, me. This is nothing "hallucinatory" - but is done through controlled visual imagery. Everyone here has colds...regular epidemic going around. You have heat and poisonous smog there, eh? Keep yourself braced for a possible earthquake, 6 or above on the Richter Scale. That's a tough one. You and Rick have your Angel...and PK protection...therefore even if the houses all came down in LA, you'd be protected. Next week I am sending you a present...you've been so sweet about sending cigars. Am sending you a set of colored pics, the ones taken in Washington, of the bunch. Be on the watch for them. Must go now. Be good, and mind Pat. She knows a lot, even more than you do. Love and kisses.......... Dad 08/02/2025 15:28 === Page 130 of 140 Friday November 19, 1965 Dear Rick... Thanks for your recent letter, honey. I enjoyed reading it very much. Am glad that you enjoy your school there, and are having a good time. After several years of easy-livin' (?) with yore pappy, I reckon you're glad to get some relaxation. Ha ha. But frankly, I had a ball in Seattle...San Diego...Phoenix...cross-country...Biloxi...Myrtle Beach...Washington, D.C....with you and Lornie. Many, many happy memories to remember. Your and my efforts to keep our car moving...keep tires on it...cross-country...would make a good comedy movie. Ha ha. Little Beau right now is funny as all get out. His head is all curly, yet he's like a small bull. Strong. The other night he got mad, picked up a half-table (we eat snacks on it & watch TV) and threw the table onto my foot. Nearly broke my toe. And you wouldn't know him now, he has grown so much bigger than when you saw him last...his shoulders are getting broad and he's grown a foot, I swear, since you saw him last. He dances a lot to TV music, and he still makes faces at us and does that "whispering" act occasionally. Big, big things have happened with my PK work...and the Si's have done some unbelievable things. They tell me first, before those things happen, and I tell the govt. beforehand. So Electra is getting lots of water now. The Si's are causing drought and lowering water tables, in spite of any rain that occurs. The over-all effect will be that of water-shortage. Of course, in Electra and Electro anything can happen...and I mean, anything. Anything drastic, that is. Both of them "growing gardens" of PK; the same as the inside of the ancient Egyptian tombs sealed with a "curse" protecting the inside. You know. Anyway, you and Lornie are protected, so don't worry. I don't remember if we "bubbled" Pat or not. Try hard to be a good student...and I know you'll be a good boy, as you grow up. Make daddy proud of you, yes? Loves and kisses, Dad (Tekman) 08/02/2025 15:28 === Page 131 of 140 Friday November 19, 1965 Dear Lorrie, thank you very much for the swell cigar. Enjoyed it very much. Also, thanks for the picture. I have it in my wallet, and show it to my friends proudly. You asked about hurricanes this year. I covered this in a letter to you a month or so ago...as you know, my Hurricane Hunter Groups cause hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes, etc. These Groups are powerful "weather-upsetters" well....a typhoon is a hurricane, and this year in the Pacific they ran clear through the alphabet, and had to start all over on another round of alphabetic names. In the Atlantic, just a few hurricanes...but of course, Betsy was worth ten hurricanes all in one. Nothing quite like Betsy. As for the PK harassing NASA...guess you just read about Kris Kraft, the Head of NASA, having a pistol pointed at his head and the trigger pulled... but the bullet misfired. There were 13 top key NASA men on the plane with him at the time, and the plane could easily have been destroyed by the 9 pistol shots that went into the floor. Also, practically every shot that has gone up lately at the Cape, has flubbed. The last big one...the Agena...simply vanished. Disappeared. They are still scratching their heads over that one. That Agena was the one that the Astronauts were going to go up and chase, and try to catch up with. Of course the East Coast power-failure was caused by the Si's. But they had to make up some reason for it...Johnson ordered an explanation within 24 hours. Ha ha! So they gave him one. But they still haven't really figured it out at all. Supposedly a relay broke down...but there is a paradox in it, in that the relay worked and automatically shut down later. They can't understand that. Also, they don't understand the wide area... the magnitude of it, covered by the power breakdown. Then I would point out that lately there have been a rash of power breakdowns. They just had one in England, for instance. Am glad you are having fun at school. MX I sure do miss you and Rick, and so does Martha. Baby Beau used to having spells of crying...and we wondered why...until we realized it was always after we talked about you in front of him, or showed your and Ricks' pictures. But we are rich in memories...I can still see Beau dancing wildly with you and Rick in the Mangel's living room. And that trip across the U.S. was one of the best things of my life, where I got to know you kids really, and we shared down to rock-bottom. Listen...if you ever get a check sent to me...send it to me by registered letter, because people steal mail out of boxes here. Love & Kisses - Dad. === Page 132 of 140 November 27, 1965 Dear Rick: I was very glad to receive your letter. And was most surprised that you had noticed many of my PK objectives; most of them, in fact. There is a lot going on that I wish I could fill you in on. The Si's have gotten "down and dirty" as the saying goes in poker...and it would not surprise me if they eliminated Johnson from the human race, shortly. Might interest you to know that they sent a special message...to the U.S. Government, through me, about a week ago...they showed me a drawing of the U.S. without any State lines...and with a death's head in the center of it. My interpretation of it is that there is a definite threat to the U.S. at this time, right now...which the Si's know about, but we don't...and they are trying to warn us. Your dollar went to help me buy Beau an expensive Flipper ride-toy, which he is crazy about. He had a big birthday party...lots of fun, cake, ice-cream and the works. He's getting to be a big boy now. He can go get his little potty, pull down his pants, and go by himself. Then he empties the potty, washes it out === Page 133 of 140 Friday Dec. 3, 1965 Dear Rick: Honey, put date on the top of your letter. Good form. Okay? So you have played pool with Jim. Good. Wish it were me you were playing with. But right now we wouldn't have the money, anyway, even if you were here. But I predict that you will be a real champ pool and snooker player, if you play much. I'd beat the daylights out of you for a long time...but if you had guts, you'd stay with it...until finally you'd be beating me. That's the way I learned...by taking on the toughest pool sharks in Bedford..and getting beaten regularly...until suddenly, one day, my game clicked...from then on, I beat them on, and couldn't hardly get anybody to play me. Will mention that some of those pool sharks tried to get me to drink with them, but I wouldn't; tried to get me to shoot dice, and so on...but I was there just to learn to shoot pool, without having any of the usual pool-hall bad habits and bad people rub off on me...and accomplished the mission, miraculously. I would not recommend this procedure to you, or to anybody else; if you go to play pool, go with Pat or Jim or me, no other. Then you're safe. XX Am enclosing a couple more clips on football fatalities of this season. 25 high-school kids killed this year, in football play....is terrible....and you see what I mean. It just ain't worth it, pal. Save your juice, and courage, to learn judo, basketball, etc. Learn to protect your head, at all costs. Your thinking-apparatus, and your eyesight and hearing, are of the highest importance to you...because you are going to walk a long road in life, and these tools you need. And these tools you can lose, if you box, play football, etc. The first thing you learn in judo is how not to get hurt. Karate is fine, too, but do not try breaking things with your hands, whatever you do. That is fine to impress girls with, but you will injure the fine nerves in your hands...and lose your wonderful sense of touch for art work, pool and snooker, etc. Rather than toughen my hands...I would use a blackjack or "stick-fighting". === Page 134 of 140 Monday, Dec. 13, 1965 Mr. Eastwood, NASA Dear Mr. Eastwood: I have been instructed to send this following information on to you...from the UFO intelligences. When Chris Kraft had a gun pointed at his head...it was no accident. And when the gun misfired, and Kraft was not killed instantly...it was no accident. The UFO intelligences caused it all to happen, just that way. It was their way of telling NASA, in the best way NASA could understand...that they have their (UFO's) gun pointed at NASA's head...and it will fire, or misfire, as they wish it to. They want you to know that it is they who are blocking the work at Cape Kennedy, and will continue to do so, until they are allowed to make an alliance with the U.S. Government. They wish to point out: (1) March 1, 1965 - Atlas Centaur Moon Rocket (Project Surveyor) blew up on its pad at the Cape. (2) April 14, 1965 - Air Force Star Tracking System Rocket blew up 72 seconds after launch, at the Cape. (3) August 19, 1965 - the Gemini 5 was almost hit by lightning; had a fire on or near the pad; was affected by storm at the time - and of course you know what happened to it when it got up. Everything that could go wrong without killing the astronauts, did go wrong. (4) August 25, 1965 - OSO Flying Laboratory blew up just after launching, at the Cape. (5) October, 1965, the Gemini 6 Agena "Target" Rocket blew up, or vanished, after launching, ruining that entire undertaking. (6) December 12, 1965 - the Gemini 6 again failed to lift off...a very embarrassing National failure, since it was on TV at the time. They, the UFO intelligences, point out that they have consistently blocked the U.S. major space efforts. They point out that it could not be chance or coincidence, if that is what you think. Why, they want to know, doesn't the U.S. Government comply with their wishes...which are very simple wishes...and which would put them, the UFO's, on the side of the U.S. for a change, and allow space work to go ahead? You will recall, Mr. Eastwood, in my letter of October 26, 1965...I told you "For the want of a nail (what the UFO intelligences want)...a battle was lost." Surprisingly Walter Cronkite, on CBS News Television yesterday, Sunday, made this very quote...and went to great lengths to spell it out. He was making a different point...but he was talking about Gemini 6, and of course, in a way, so was I. Odd coincidence. To sum it up...the UFO intelligences want you to know, vividly, that they are in control...and the U.S. Government will suffer catastrophe after catastrophe, until it becomes friends with the UFO's. I would point out the various ship collisions and fires that have struck. The Kitty Hawk; the Independence - giant carriers; nuclear subs, etc. This too is the work of the UFO intelligences. But it has all been on a small scale (for them.) In closing, my wife and I met these intelligences last week. PR Man === Page 135 of 140 Copy - Leonie & Rick Wednesday December 22, 1965 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: So...the UFO intelligences again have demonstrated their lesson to the U.S. Government...with the destruction of the Titan III out of the Cape yesterday. The Titan carrying the four satellites. Also please note that not only were 11 top officials and Chris Kraft threatened with death in an airplane several weeks ago..but NASA lost Dryden, Deputy Commander, and Lovelace, Chief Medico, within the past ten days, also. Why did Gemini 6 and 7 rendezvous successfully, without incident? The Si's held their hand because for reasons known best to them they could not interfere with these craft in the air, like they did Gemini 5, without endangering the lives of the astronauts this time...and this they did not wish to do. But a rocket going up without a human aboard...that is different. It is fair game to them. P K MAN (Owens) 1114 Spruce St., #33 Philadelphia, Pa. P.S. Will interest you to know that the Si's have put in an appearance on three different occasions at our apartment, within the past two weeks. My wife and I both have seen them. Even our baby tried to talk to them. ALSO HAVE CONTACTED UFO'S AND REQUESTED THEY SHOW THEIR CRAFT AT CAPE KENNEDY AS SIGNAL OF THEIR REALITY AND THEIR CONNECTION WITH P K MAN. === Page 136 of 140 December 22, 1965 Dear Lornie and Rick: Just a note to wish you a Merry Christmas, and send you my love. Your amazing box came yesterday...and the packages are under our little tree. I am immensely grateful to you for giving Martha and Beau (and myself) some sort of Christmas, for we are in the same boat we were in when you were with us. You know. That is why we will send you a small gift for Christmas. But the size of our gift is no indication of what good pals we are.' Little Beau, when your packages were rolled out by the dozen, got so excited...he jumped up and down and said one of his few words, "Want." When we put the packages up, he had a fit, and tried to wreck the place, as usual. I waited ten minutes until the uproar died down, then went about setting chairs and tables upright. Saturday you will know that your immense thoughtfulness and labor in preparing packages (and expense) will give a lot of fun and pleasure to your still-broke pals in Philadelphia. but still scrapping Bless your hearts. Love, Dad. P.S. I am building a PK capsule for little Jimmy -- and assigning an incorporeal agent to guard him -- as you have. Will send name later of agent. (It is Moiria -- moy-nyah.) Am doing this because in our box we found an expression of friendship from Jimmy to Beau. 08/02/2025 15:28 === Page 137 of 140 12/28/65 P2 Thursday December 23, 1965 Editor The Philadelphia Inquirer Dear Sir: (1) I believe the Viet Cong is using the "sponge" technique...that is, squeeze a sponge in water, and all the cells fill up and retain water. Instead of cells, they use endless tunnels, which they are constantly making. I believe that, at a given time, although now they are vacating these tunnels, they will assemble almost overnight in all the secret tunnels..and the sponge will be filled with water; i.e., Viet Nam will be loaded with hidden Viet Cong en masse...to strike all at once, everywhere. (2) I believe that television will develop "false" IQs for youngsters. That is, they watch countless blood and thunder stories on TV, written by some neurotic writers, perhaps, that are certainly wrong, value-wise, and mostly wrong moral-wise. Later, when confronted with a real-life situation, the youngster who has watched these sugar-coated damaging Tv shows will react to the real-life situation subconsciously, with a stored-away TV memory of how the neurotic Tv writer handled it...with disastrous consequences. As I understand it, IQ is based on how an individual handles a situation at any given time, based upon past experience and present intelligence. I predict that "TV IQ" will develope, horribly, in millions of youngsters...with the result that their subconscious reactions to real-life situations will grow a catastrophic crop of false, invalid results... which will widen, like a stone dropped into a pond creating ripples, to affect their surrounding environment. (3) An even more horrible thing is taking place. Youngsters watching TV, instead of reading books from the library (as we did in the pre-TV years) will tend to lose their ability to form mental images from words. I.E., when a youngster reads, his mind converts the words that he sees into pictures in his mind. This ability, in a world made of words, is of incalculabe value. But now see....he has stopped reading, and only looks at pictures already formed for him, outside his mind. And the "muscle" inside his mind, formed by word-conversion into picture-images, weakens and grows flabby. Mental-imagery for him will grow increasingly difficult, thereby making it very difficult for him to be creative. For are not all great inventions, paintings, etc., taken from the imagination? To sum up: TV is robbing our children of their ability to have imagination. The Tv screen provides them with "outside imagination" without effort on their part. No muscle was ever made strong without flexing; no imagination-ability was ever made strong without practice; and no mental-imagery ability is possible without effort. ---------- Ted Owens, 1114 Spruce Street, #33, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Ted O 08/02/2025 15:28 === Page 138 of 140 Tues. Dec. 28, 1965 Dear Lornie: Thank you, honey, for giving Martha, Beau and I such a wonderful Xmas. Your and Rick's gifts, of course, were our Christmas. Want a laugh? I started smoking your fine cigars Christmas morning, and ran out the next day at noon. 14 Berings. Ha ha. Boy, they were good. All of your gifts, wrapped and all, must have been quite a tremendous job to fix up, you and Rick...and needless to say, our little group appreciate that fact. Beau reads his little books at night...has worn his new pajamas now since Xmas...plays with the picture-puzzles and the chalk-slate...he's having a ball. And Martha, was she tickled with her presents! You know Martha. Her feelings are right out in the open where you can see them...and she was laughing and whooping and opening everything in sight. The only thing we missed, was yo babysitting Money :) 08/02/2025 14:37 === Page 139 of 140 and Rick. Martha sadly remarked: "Do you know, honey, this is the first Xmas in years we haven't had Lornie or Rick with us?" Well, it was a wonderful Xmas. Have had several vivid, life-like dreams about Pat. Odd. Girl in the apartment next to us came screaming to our door Friday night...prowler grabbed her when she went into her apartment, she escaped, screaming, to our place. I went after him with a handful of knives, but he got away before I could get my pants on (I was in shorts.) Then last night a pane of glass fell on her hand, and cut it...and the boy she lives with was in an auto wreck Sunday, broke two ribs. My boss's wife was in an auto wreck Thursday. Sound familiar? The girl's name is Trina. Love, Daddy === Page 140 of 140 1- Copy - Lorrie + Rick Tuesday December 28, 1965 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's are getting restless, because they are getting no help or cooperation from the United States. Therefore, regretfully, they are going to nudge the United States, by giving President Johnson still another disaster area or two to go look at. They do not specify the exact type of disaster...but I think it would be an earthquake. So...within the next few days or few weeks...one disaster area...coming up. And they want me to tell the U.S. Government one more thing...which the Government, of course, will not believe, or even understand the Si's are going to transfer the strong emotions, hate, fear, anguish, frustration....of all dead people who have been killed in Viet Nam, on both sides, to blanket the Capitol in Washington, and the White House, and the LBJ Ranch. They instructed me to tell you; this is something new to me, and I do not know what it is they are talking about, exactly, or what the effect would be, if, in fact, they can do what they are talking about. They also instruct me to again point out my tremendous value to the U.S. - because without me, as a go-between, or interpretor, the U.S. would not know many key things that are happening to it, since I am the only human these particular UFO intelligences have been able to reach.

Sent from Lori Rodriguez in Beaverton, Oregon. Recorded by Lewis Barlow July 19, 2025 Majority written in 1965 and 1966 but were a couple of letters from 1970 and 1976. We received several different packages from Lori that contained Ted Owens letters to his children. As this was more of a general package of letters and covered several different dates, for organization purposes we will just call it general letters. Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading. Examples include books, letters, dissertations, poems, newspapers, articles, archives of mailing lists. Note that facsimiles or images of texts are still of the genre Text. Text Any textual data included in the document === Page 1 of 10 the circus Friday, May 28 - 65 *Harvey is Rick Dear Lorrie - thanks for the letter. The owner of the Beatty circus sent his chauffeur down to Washington for us - in an air-conditioned $10,000 Cadillac, just as promised. There wasn't room for most of our things including your stuff - and we left a note for Jean to send it collect by Railway Express. We are advertised as the world's greatest knife-throwing act. Yesterday they took pictures of the cats, all together in a group. May send you one later. She has not yet. These pics are great. No word yet if our act will go on the road with the circus or not. They are full up - wanted to "beef up" their show for Philadelphia. So - ? - They had no way to carry us. We have no car, so, fools. Mr Fuller, expecting our whole family as he saw it in Hyattsville, had a beautiful motel room ready for us - at $17.00 a day. Ha ha! TV & all. We took another smaller room. We've been here a week. To tell you all the action that has occurred, would entail writing a full length book. Losh, we need a permanent address so agents can contact us. I'm going to give you as my permanent address, & you forward my mail to me. Okay? For instance, the father of our great flying trapeze act - all his sons & daughters (he's a clown) - wants to get us booked with Mexico's biggest circus in Mexico City - Bell Circus for a month there. But he'll need a permanent address to contact me, cause I'll be gone from here. === Page 2 of 10 Our day goes like this: Flag goes up (red) in front of cook tent at 12 noon, which is signal for all performers to go eat. Food is excellent. All you want, plus big pitchers of hot coffee. Bean has been too excited to eat. From doing absolutely nothing in Washington, to doing everything here, has lit him up like a light-bulb. We have a 12:30 to 1:00 show call - we go to our giant tent (this isn't what you saw at Hyattsville - Beatty has three combined giant shows) and go onto our stage, where our board is set up. Inside the tent it looks like this: Entrance (FRONT) ESCAPE ARTIST Scotch Man Bo Bo Rubber man MYSTINA Electric Girl Sealo - Half man, Half seal CROWD (TIP) BUCK - 8 1/2 FT. TALL BO RUNNING AROUND Barney - Fire Eater Duke The Hawaiian Steel - Magician Bogarde's Lovella Fat Man Tiny - 762 lbs. Count - trick act on skating table PEANUTS SWORD SWALLOWER Blade Box Illusion (swords thru girl) 08/08/2025 16:23 === Page 3 of 10 Sun. May 30 - Jean hasn't sent our things yet! Last night while Bobo The Rubber Man was doing his act one of the marks (crowd) jumped on his platform and heckled him. So Bobo picked up his barrel and hit the mark on the head with it, knocking him off the platform. Let's take the acts. See page 2 - the chart. Bobo is very famous, written up by Ripley's Believe It or Not. He's from the Ringling Circus where he was Emmett Kelly's partner. One thing he does is step inside a narrow barrel bend over put his head, shoulders & arms down inside the barrel - & push the barrel up over him. He somehow gets both legs up back of him - back of his shoulders - and swings on his hands. He's without a doubt one of the world's best contortionists. He filled us in a lot on psychology of the crowds, how they think & act. Now pass on to Myetina, The Electric Girl's platform. She's a pretty blond in gold tights, who stands on a plate which charges her up with electricity. If you hand her a light bulb it lights up. If you touch a kerosene-soaked torch to her hand or tongue - it bursts into flame. Lots of things like that. Sealo is advertised as half-man half-seal. He was born with little teensy flippers attached to his shoulders. He's very happy, shows the crowd how he shaves and eats, etc (he's a regular sleight-of-hand artist with those flippers.) Also he's the "circus philosopher." All the acts like to hang around Sealo's stand because he's always so happy & jolly. He's really so. (Sealo keeps yelling at Bo and flipping him chewing gum.) Buck is the Giant. He's also crazy about Bo and picking him up and plays with him constantly. He's 8 1/2 feet tall and at our eating table in the cookhouse he sits in the center and can reach any part or end of the table. You'll see Buck the Giant, Sealo & all the rest soon so get this pic copied & send it to you. Buck was in Disney movie "Jack & Beanstalk". Bricky is the finest Fire Eater in the world. Any of the most difficult fire-eating tricks he can do. Last year he told us he was badly burned in Canada doing the "blast" - this for fire eaters is like a triple-somersault to the trapeze people. To do the blast he fills his mouth with a whisky glass of gasoline and somehow spews it out in a fan where he lights it with his torches. In Canada, just as he sprayed it === Page 4 of 10 and the wind blew through the tent & blew the flames back onto him - burning off all his hair, etc, & roasting his face. Steel, the magician, came from the Ringling Circus. A 25-yr. old kid, he was "inside talker" on the mike - directing the crowds from act to act. Unfortunately his act came just before ours. Every time he did his act the crowd would walk away from him, half-way through his act, to our platform, wanting to see the knives. This made him furious, and the first two days he'd cut our act short on purpose. Jealous. He'd do knives around & set up for teeth balloon or blindfold - & he'd send the crowd on. But the manager got him straightened out. Then some brunette he liked in the crowd dated him one night. She was married. He "went to New York" the next day. The following day, when he "got back" the husband & the girl's father were at the circus gunning for him. The girl had vanished. She hasn't been found yet. Evidently he's a good magician. Next act - Bogarde & Lovella. My knives in that champagne bucket I bought - look good. Also Peanuts (I'll get to him) loaned me 10 knives he used to use. We'd open with knives around (20 knives covering board.) Then teeth balloon. Then blindfold. We did the shield a few times. We only had time for 2-3 stunts. They use code words. Manager walks around in front of each platform & holds his fingers close together means "short act" - "fast" - because the tip crowd must be rushed to the Blade Box where they make extra money. If he stretches his fingers far apart, means do a long act. If they say over the mike "Is Johnny Robinson in the crowd" then all acts do short acts, to rush the tip out to make room for a new tip. Bo was a hell of a problem. First two days Martha would hold him back of the platform until our act began, then we'd ask a nearby act to hold him until we finished. Finally we discovered if we just him down in the center of the tent he'd play & run & watch the acts - & we could watch him from the platform. Everybody was crazy about him & they'd keep an eye on him too. If he tried to sneak out the front of the tent then Duke the Hawaiian, beating the tom-toms, would shoosh him back inside. === Page 5 of 10 grabbed one of the Duke's tom-tom sticks away from him & the Duke had to chase him all over the tent to get it back. Bo finally (he's very sharp) discovered by watching kids trying to sneak under the tent in, that he could lift the tent & sneak out. Boy! First time he vanished we found him on a kiddy-ride outside, having a ball. He just went over & got in a car & rode & rode & rode. The operators nearly died laughing. They all got to know him cause Martha took him on all the pony rides, car rides, etc (they had 80 different rides.) Bo would swagger around the tent like a grown up man, beaming at people, petting babies. One colored woman had a pretty 2 yr. old colored girl by the hand. Bo grimy dirty by this time in late afternoon, walked over to the little girl. Her face lighted up in a big smile & she held out her tiny hand. Bo took her hand and the 3 went hand in hand around the tent. Finally a colored teenager son of the colored woman came into the tent & went up to his mother. He saw Bo, his face registered utter astonishment & he pointed a finger at Bo & yelled "Where did he come from?" Only once did Bo elude us. I searched high & low. Finally went to the police van. There he was sitting in a chair, calmly jabbering in that Chinese way of his at the cops. I identified myself and one cop said to me, "This is impossible, Bogarde. Your boy is talking Korean!" I said ha ha. But he was serious. "He absolutely is," he said. "I spent years in Korea, I talk in Korean to him & he answers me." You figure that one out. During the day a half-dozen cops clambered onto our platform, at my invitation, put down their billy clubs & learned knife-throwing. They ate it up. And they told me things about their work. In the race riots here weeks ago negros dumped bushel baskets of bricks off the roof tops onto the cops below. One cop is in the hospital from being struck by the bricks, not expected to live. Then the negros poured Drano down onto the cops. De Feo, who told me about it, had a shotgun at the time. === Page 6 of 10 6 It was on the rooftop trying to get these negros. One day they caught a negro who had just flung a can of Drano down onto some cops. De Feo's partner was real mad about it and when their sergeant hollered up from the street, "Get that damn Drano-thrower down here fast" De Feo's partner picked up the negro & threw him off the roof into the street below. They told me many fascinating stories, while I taught them. Next act, Tiny the Fat Man. 6 ft 3, 762 lbs. Bad-tempered, hates people. He just sits there & sells pictures. They had to pile 15 coke cases together to make a chair for him. Tiny is not jolly. One day he slowly, laboriously got himself off the platform and massively moved to the cookhouse for lunch. But they were an hour late. So he bawled out the cook. (Now, he eats a loaf of bread, 2 dozen eggs, 2 lbs. of bacon, and 3 pots of coffee just for breakfast.) Well the cook complained to the manager, & the manager told Tiny to apologize to the cook. Tiny refused to do so, and from that time on refused to eat in the cookhouse. He'd wait until the show was over, then take a cab downtown & eat somewhere. We knew how this hurt Tiny, because he's the tightest man with a dime you've ever seen. Our last day he astonished all the acts by holding out his hand to little Bo, who took it, and Tiny shook his little hand with a smile. Since Tiny is cold as ice, this puzzled everybody, including us. Next, The Count one of our best friends. Colored, colorful, tremendous personality. Been all over the world. Uses a special table with heavy iron legs. To fast jazz music he leaps onto the table on roller skates and tap dances & roller skates like mad. A terrific entertainer. He held Bo for us the most. Now, Peanuts came next, until he got fired, and that's quite a story. Peanuts swallowed bayonets, clothes hangers, swords, etc. In Indian with wild eyes, he'd dash off between shows to the === Page 7 of 10 2 nearest bar and drink. He also drank some kind of dope. He had a rep as a bad, very bad man. But he quickly made friends with me. (What I didn't know was he wanted to take over our knife act.) He took me to his car and took out 10 knives he had made & used. Told me to use them - that his eyes were bad. I said I'd buy them. He said, well I could use the knives during my stint, and he'd consider selling them to me. Two days later, before my show he asked for his knives - said he'd like to practice on my board. I gave them to him but he went out to his car. At showtime he came in and handed them to me in a stack. I put the stack in my bucket & went on to do the show. On the 3rd throw I felt terrific pain in my fingers. There I was, halfway thru knives around, about 300 people watching us. I glanced down & saw two fingers ripped open, deep. Without pausing I grinned at the crowd to cover my slight pause, licked my fingers to get up the blood, & proceeded to finish the act. After the crowd passed on I went to the board & examined that 3rd knife, which had bounced out of the board. Peanuts had taken pliers and twisted the point around so that there were two razor-sharp projections guaranteed to ruin any hand. I used PK instantly, and the cuts were completely healed within hours. Naturally the shows couldn't stop, so I adapted a grip utilizing other fingers. I called Len, acct. mgr. over, showed him the gaffed knife. Then came the double-cross. He went to Peanuts, bought the knives for himself (discovered he wanted to start a knife act - he'd been showing me handcuff escapes in exchange for knife lessons.) Then they fired Peanuts. This made me furious, because I'd been double-crossed. I feel sorry for anyone using those knives after this - & was sporting enough when I left to warn Len that those knives had better not be used around a live target. You understand? === Page 8 of 10 3) Next, the Blade Box. A pretty girl gets in the box and 13 long swords are run thru it at every angle. Then for a dime the crowd can walk back of the box & see how the girl has eluded the knives. This is a real money-maker. Worked fine until the magician, who performed it, vanished for a day, and a sub came in to do it -- and cut the girl twice, putting the knives in. (He didn't give her time enough to guide the blades past her.) The first Blade Box girl, Jane, was secretly smooching with Fuller, the owner (as well as about 20 other assorted males around) until Fuller's wife arrived. Then the girl got fired & they used Julie (Mystina) to run over after her act & do the Blade Box. There are dozens of exciting & wonderful things I could tell you about if I could just think of them. Oh, last nite I almost got ran over by a camel. Those things are like trains! I was standing inside the tent when suddenly the side of the tent lifted and a camel plunged right at me -- knocking the steel tent pole into my arm. I jumped out of the way & Bob, the elephant tender, ran the camel out the opposite side. The crowd was at the opposite end of the tent & they'd decided to run the camels thru our tent to load them in trucks. Just as I was recovering from the shock of this, another damn camel came busting under the flaps at me. It was out of control & just missed me. They got it & took it out. Lots of excitement. We got paid & after advances & 50.00 deductions for taxes -- we had 3.00 left, after hotel rent. I sold my watch for 20.00. Sound familiar? Ha ha! We love you, and Harvey. Be a good girl, and help Harvey be a good boy. (It's your job, as big sister.) Dad ---------- over for P.S. 08/08/2025 16:23 === Page 9 of 10 P.S.: Oh, second day with circus tornado warning came. They got everybody out of tents for 4 hrs (very dangerous in a tent during windstorm.) Martha & baby & I crouched behind the elephants, which were flattened up against a high brick wall. Things were flying thru the air -- must have been 50-75 mph wind. Rained for several days. (Naturally.) Incidentally, have taken off rain PK -- put up sun sata inside PK cover. Harvey knows what this means. Drought -- everywhere. Heat. No water. You'll be reading about it. Worst summer in history of U.S. They asked for it, & they deserve it. Love, Dad (PK Man) (Bogardé) turn page over -- P.P.S. Thumbs down to us meant "the front is off" i.e. no more tip (crowd) to bring in, so they hung "closed" on the outside -- put chains across the front, & closed the tent-flaps. So if a tip was still in the tent, we did one more show for that tip, & were off for a half-hour to 2 hrs., depending on the day. Mon., Tues., Wed., we didn't work too hard. Each day the crowds grow progressively. Fri., Sat., & Sun. are hard days. One show after another in "grind" fashion. If the "grind" is on they really roll. === Page 10 of 10 P.P.P.S. Martha reminded me of some things -- While we were doing our act, several times, we noticed that Bo had left the center of the tent, gotten behind our platform, and was climbing up the steep steps of our flat-bed truck to get to us. So, with a knife in my hand I'd hiss at Count or somebody for heaven's sake get the kid. They did, every time but once! That time he got loose & I was winding up for a throw with the crowd looking on -- and Bo slowly appeared in front of me -- between me & Martha -- dragging his blanket. I waved him on (hoping he'd go on past) and he did, and we completed the act. The crowd roared. It looked like it was rehearsed. Then, between shows, one day Martha yelled "Look out!" I looked around & Bo who was up on the platform with us, had sneaked over, reached up & pulled a knife out of my bucket, toddled over to the board, and threw the knife at the board. He was to do this many many times. Evidently, watching us from the ground he'd observed this and was imitating. Also he'd go up to the board like Martha, stand exactly in the center, facing me with a grin, & point to the knife-bucket. I found a fine cig lighter, a beautiful ring for Martha, a hat for Bo, during the circus. Many of the acts brought him gifts -- three dolls, from Duke, a doll and candy from the Scotch Bagpiper (82 years old -- a hero of WWI -- chewing gum from Seals, boxes of crackerjack from Fuller & the Scotchman -- Buck the Giant a toy dog -- Brisky a toy. Martha, one into, carrying Bo, fell over a chair and skinned her knees badly -- and Bo's head hit the ground real hard. At the cookhouse, alongside Buck the Giant The Fire Eater, the Magician, etc, Bo sat on a plastic crate to reach his plate (he got full meals with everybody else.) One man who operated a dandy hamburger stand on the midway, always gave Bo free a 15¢ pack of cream puffs, or a doughnut. I asked him why he kept it up (about 8-10 times) "Because," he said, "the kid brings me luck. Business always picks up after he's been here." 08/08/2025 16:23 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Text Any textual data included in the document === Page 1 of 3 2 Message To The American People...from the Saucer Intelligences (SI's) through The Rain Maker, Ted Owens...August 3, 1965 We are very happy that we are able to reach the ears of human beings, after trying for long long spaces of time. This human who is talking for us, we have been teaching for a year in your time, and now he knows much...soon he will know much more. He can do much. You must listen to him carefully, and protect him, for if you lose him you lose your link with us, and it is not known how long it may be until we find another human who can receive our thoughts, and send intelligence back to us, in just his way. You do not appreciate the difficulties involved. It would be as if you were trying to teach your earth animals how to talk, and suddenly you found one who could actually converse with you...and through this one animal you had an opportunity to discover the secrets of the animal kingdom. Through us you have the opportunity to discover the secrets of space, of far away places, of advanced technology, but better still...you have the opportunity of surviving, for as a race you are utterly doomed now, as you are flying (this in their words.) Many civilizations before you have so doomed themselves and destroyed themselves, and we were helpless to give them assistance and advice and powerful aid. Now for the first time in long space ages we are able, though a human's senses, to come to the aid of a good civilization and help it survive. But we can only do so if you listen, and pay attention. We are causing severe drought, with our machines in your skies, so that we can teach you a basic lesson...which is that our intelligence is far superior to that of earth intelligence. We can control earth people because we can control what you call weather. When, and not before, our earth human has been accepted by your government, and put to good use, then and only then will we release the drought conditions, and let rainfall come in abundance down onto your thirsty earth. 08/08/2025 16:45 === Page 2 of 3 2 we will also add pestilence and sickness and what you call accidents; we will follow the structure of events which we used in the day of the human you know as Moses, as he strove against the ruler of the great country called Egypt. As we helped Moses in that day, so we shall help the human-friend we know now as Ted Owens, you call the Rain Maker. If it please him to think that...of course we make the rain for him, but what is the difference? so that you people of the earth will believe this message we send to you, and we do not expect you to believe it unless we show proof...listen carefully. From now on, in time ahead, we will lift the curtain of drought for a little, and let the thirsty earth have its moisture. we will give the precious rain where it is needed...for a time. Then, lest you think that it is a perchance, we will drop the curtain once more with our machines, and let the rays of the sun penetrate the bowels of the earth and dry up your rivers, your lakes, your plants...until you accept our human as our representative. After you accept him, we have much work for him to do, for we do not speak your language, nor do we know too much, as we should, about your inner workings. It is through this human that we can learn; and it is through us, that you can learn. Even now, we send the meaning of our thoughts to him, and his brain translates through pictures and feelings into your English. It is good. Beware lest you take too long to accept our human-friend, for then we must strike a hard blow at the country which spurns him...to punish your country as you would punish a child which persists in misbehaving. After your country has accepted our link with humans, and we are able to proceed in keeping earth humans from the time-old habit of erasing 08/08/2025 16:45 === Page 3 of 3 the way it should be. We have no wish to rule you, or dictate to you... we only wish, as friends, to know you, and to teach you, and let you be happy. We are not of flesh and blood such as you. Our composition is that of your grasshopper, so that our bodies will compress and expand with spacework. We have not blood, but different chemicals inside ourselves. We are small, but have the ability to reverse our body-electricity at will, and this gives us strength to move and to carry great burdens; makes us very strong. Language difficulty makes it difficult for us to send a stream of highly technical information through our human-friend's mind for translation, since he is not a scientist, and must therefore translate as he understands. But for a beginning, it is good. Please, therefore, listen to this human-friend, and accept him, for we wish to help your country, and no other on earth...in your time of trouble, so that you may then properly help the other countries on earth. At this part of time your country has the best philosophy, the best ideas, the best advances, for helping. We can do many many things that you have no dream of, to help you. And may we ask you please be careful not to pursue our craft in your curiosity...not to attack us with your weapons, simply because we are not like yourselves. When our human-friend is in an area, please do not have planes overhead in that area, because you do not know it but we will have our own craft overhead...we have methods that make our craft so that your earth-eyes cannot see them, at times. Especially when we want it so. You ask, is there anything else, earth-friends... just that, we are happy, and excited, for you and your people, and for us.

Sent from Lori Rodriguez in Beaverton, Oregon. Recorded by Lewis Barlow July 19, 2025 Majority written in 1965 and 1966 but were a couple of letters from 1970 and 1976. We received several different packages from Lori that contained Ted Owens letters to his children. As this was more of a general package of letters and covered several different dates, for organization purposes we will just call it general letters.

It seems many of his predictions have come about or are in the process. Doesn't appear to be any space or time to predictions! They come about in their own time. I felt so guilty not responding to his many requests. Rick and I were 14+15 to 16+17 For all you are and for what you do. Thank you! all my best, Lori P.S. all in chronological order with exception of newspaper clippings === Page 3 of 220 FILE January 7, 1966 2/7/66 Editor The Philadelphia Inquirer Dear Sir: I had read so much in the newspapers about Consensuses being taken on President Johnson and the U. S. Government...saying that President's popularity is high, and that the people are backing the U.S. Government's action in Viet Nam. Well, this made me very curious. So, last weekend, instead of watching pro football, I flew down to Viet Nam ... to take a consensus there among the peoples, in order to satisfy my own curiosity. The first person I interviewed was a beautiful, sexy Vietnamese bar-girl in a bar in Saigon. Me: "Pardon, Miss, may I ask you two questions?" She: "Five dolla." Me: "Just for answering two questions?" She: "Be quick, fella. My time worth plenty money, you bet." Me: "Very well. First, what do you think of President Johnson?" She: "He cute fella. Send plenty GI boy here with plenty money. I like." Me: "How about Viet Nam? Are you in favor of the war here?" (While I am talking, she leans over and drops a handful of powdered glass in the drink of a GI paratrooper who is looking the other way.) She: "War fine. Plenty GI boy, plenty money. You bet." Me: "I saw you put that poison in the paratrooper's glass. How come?" She: "Not mean nothing. Is just chore. Viet Cong make me do little chores. I no do chore, they not let me entertain Gi's upstairs in my room, make plenty money, you bet. Go way now. I losing money on you." So I made my notations in my notebook, then slunk out into the street, slightly depressed, where I met a Buddhist priest. I asked him about Johnson He: "Ugh." I asked him to please clarify his remark, or at least, quality it a little. 08/06/2025 16:08 === Page 4 of 220 4/7/66 P2 He: "My people say they think farming and family life lots more jolly fun than having war. They willing stop fighting any time, they say." At that moment a helicopter comes flying over, and the pilot leans out and sees the Viet Cong talking to me. With a roar forty Phantom airplanes and twenty-five B-52 bombers come down out of the clouds and drop blockbusters and napalm and printed brochures all over the villagers. It's a mess. I make a notation in my book that the villagers are against the war in Viet Nam. I pick up one of the printed brochures, wipe the blood off, and read: PEOPLE OF THE VILLAGE WE ARE GOING TO BOMB. LEAVE AT ONCE, FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY. SOON WE ARE GOING TO DROP BIG BOMBS ON YOU, BUT FIRST WE WANT TO GIVE YOU A CHANCE TO RUN. BE SURE TO PACK A LUNCH, AND DON'T FORGET THE CHILDREN. I toss the brochure away, then walk to the highway, where I thumb a ride in a jeep full of paratroopers, all wearing bloody bandages. Me: "Say, men, will you do me a big favor?" They stare at me. "I am taking a consensus down here in Viet Nam. Ha ha. Well, just let me ask you two questions...now...how do you like President Johnson?" He: "I'm in charge of this group. You can put it in the papers that we dearly love President Johnson. I, personally, carry a picture of him in my wallet, next to my heart. We all love the President, don't we, men?" They all nod, all except one GI, who is holding his head on with his hands because his head has been cut off at the neck. He manages to tip his helmet, though. Me: "That's great! I will make the notation here that the President is very popular with the U.S. troops in Viet Nam. Now, the next question: Are you in favor of the war here in Viet Nam?" He: "Oh, we sure are, aren't we, men! We're having a ball here, right?" They all nod, without changing expression. One tips his helmet. Me: "Fine, then I'll put that down, that the U.S. troops are all back of the U.S. Government in the Viet Nam war." But suddenly the leader reaches over and takes my notebook away from me. He: "You won't need this any more, fella." Me: "What?" I am shocked to the core. He: "No, we need it worse. ; Ran out of paper in our latrine. This'll do fine." So I had to return to the U.S. without a true consensus. Like they have here. 08/06/2025 16:08 === Page 5 of 220 Saturday January 8, 1966 Copy - Rick Lorne Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Just a note to remind you...that messages from the Si's are not just empty words. When they warned, in my letter to you December 28...that "one disaster area coming up within a few days, or a few weeks" - they weren't kidding. New York has, within the past few days, become a real disaster area.... losing approx. one billion dollars, and now getting help from President Johnson (in my letter I told you President Johnson would have to give his attention to the stricken area coming up.) Mr. Dunn of your Agency said that possibly it might be a mistake, in the Government rejecting my services (with the Si's.) Just a quick glance at my records reveals one billion dollars in damages from Hurricane Betsy, which I could easily have taken out to sea without contact with land. Numerous NASA disasters...so costly that price could hardly be put on them. Now a one-billion dollar or more disaster in New York. ALL SINCE I TALKED WITH MR. DUNN. AND ALL OF WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED. No one in Government has yet had the brains or intelligence to check out my claims that I can void these disasters...they KNOW, from my predictions in advance, that the disasters are coming. Yet I do not understand why Government doesn't at least try me for a year, giving complete hurricane protection for Florida and Cape Kennedy...protection against disasters, which I can absolutely do, using Si power. My worth to the U.S. Government, George, as I work with the Si's...in helping the U.S. Government...could not even be calculated. The Si's will never quit or give up their activities...catastrophic for the U.S. - until they ARE recognized and dealt with. No matter what happens to me, they will go on. At least, I can tell you what they are doing, and why. P K Man Dad 08/06/2025 16:08 === Page 6 of 220 January 10, 1966 Dear Lonnie, Your letter came today + we were real happy to hear from you. We had a real nice Christmas. Thank you very much for all the nice presents. The boxes came a few days before Christmas and the birthday box came the same day as the xmas box. You + Rick made our xmas very happy by sending all of the nice gifts. The hair spray holder is very pretty + I put my hair spray in it. The blouse fits O.K. It must have taken you + Rick a lot of time + work to wrap each present certainly. It was real sweet of you both to send us the box. The candy was awfully good too. Beau got a rocking horse. I strung some popcorn + put it on the tree + Beau ate it off of the tree, it was the cracker jay kind of popcorn, anyway I had to take it off because it didn't look very pretty after he chewed some of it off the string. I had an awful time trying to keep him === Page 7 of 220 on opening the presents before xmas. I would put them under the tree + he couldn't keep his hands off of them. He would take them from out under the tree + try to open them. Guess what! Vivian said that she was going to get married during the xmas holidays. His name is Ronnie Massey + he goes to A + M college. She said he is 20 years old + they already have their house + that he had gotten the rings. I can't hardly believe that my baby sister is growing up so fast. I haven't heard from her so I guess everything went all-right. Maggie + the family spent xmas in Texas. They had a two week vacation so they were home during the xmas holidays. Jerry is taking piano lessons + is doing very well. Are you still writing to Jo Jo? He sent us a Christmas card. We didn't go out New Year's just stayed home + celebrated. Thanks a lot for all the nice gifts. I will close for now + I love you. Write soon. Love Always, Mama (over) === Page 8 of 220 Thursday January 6, 1966 Dear Rick: We were glad to get your letter of 12/24. By now, of course, you have heard that we did indeed get your box...and what a big, happy Xmas it gave us. Shades of Queenie and Granpa. Baby Beau got mad because we wouldn't open the packages when they came...about Thursday before Xmas... and he beat on us and wrecked the furniture, etc. But we were adamant, and won out, finally. Christmas Day I made Martha Santy Claus (you know how she passionately loves to open packages...especially hers) and she had a ball...her eyes lit up, she got all excited. Beau is crazy about that stuffed doggy with the big ears. He loved all the presents you and Lornie and "Santa Claus" sent him. The Trachtenburg Method is like magic...and like a game. I love it. But can't remember the rules, either. If I have the book, which I haven't, then I study it, about twice a year, and try to apply it. It is far and away superior to ordinary math. HOWEVER...you won't be able to graduate from H.S. or go to college unless you also master ordinary math, so... master ordinary math, no matter what. Leave Trach. until later college years, if you want to. Use it as a supplement method. Ordinary math taught in school is more important to you, honey. Learn it now. Get fancy later, with Tracht. Glad to hear you have a pussycat. ;That figures. You'd die laughing if you heard some of our conversations...which you no doubt remember. Goes something like this: Me: "Well, Martha, what do you think of those two new hits with PK?" Martha: "Uh huh." Me: "You know...the earthquake in New York, and the N.Y. transit disaster which has cost almost a billion dollars." Martha: "An earthquake?" Me: "Of course, haven't you read about it?" Martha: "I will. Did you get any milk at the grocery?" and so it goes. Be a good boy. I am proud of you. Love Dad P.S. Used Emmy-Emana 3 weeks ago. Hits Pacific Coast the around Be more soon === Page 9 of 220 2 Lornie Rick 1/11/66 See Rick Now, enclosed you find some clippings. Be sure and send them back for my files. As you will see, there was a great mysterious "fireball" that landed.......... in Pennsylvania, naturally. But this was the second one to land in Pennsylvania within weeks. There was another great fireball before this one, on SEPT. 28, 1965. Of course, it was the Si's that caused the Great Power Blackout in New York, and I am sure that it was one of their biggest, greatest craft...a "mother ship"...that landed in Pennsylvania (the "fireball") that caused the power failure on such a large scale. Perhaps you don't know it, but just after the great New York power blackout there was a huge power blackout in....Texas. Yep. President Johnson is trying to have both of them investigated, but how can you check on Si's? All you can do is check on the rubbish they leave behind, after the damage is done. Right? Incidentally, the Si's want you to know what they are doing, through me. They were training you, even though you didn't know it, while you were with me. And they were upset when you left me. Their training includes a great many things...including growing you a new brain, of a different sort than what you have. You have to have it, to receive the greater degree of power that you work with, through them. And they can only give you greater power in slow, graduated degrees. The Si's want me to tell you...if anyone at all blocks mail addressed to you...keeps you from getting it...God help them. It sort of worries me. If they were mad enough about your leaving me...they might wipe out the Bentley's and the Shannons, just like that. You know what happened to Mangels, and others who irked the Si's. I am out of it. Your choice is good enough for me, and this is definitely, certainly not any ploy on my part to try to get you to come back...because what you kids want, I want, for your own happiness (even if I might not agree with it.) But I am being objective when I tell you the above ... I know the Si's, communicate with them, and know their tremendous, unbelievable power that literally creates miracles, good and bad. === Page 10 of 220 1/11/66 P1 Tuesday January 11, 1966 Dear Rick Lornie Some day somebody is going to make fun of you, if you mention what P K Man has done. The attached document should stop them cold.* Remember, Lornie, when we walked by the spot where all the government officials would stand, before Johnson was made President...and I laid down a PK effect to put them all in the hospital...wrote the government that I would...and then they all went to various hospitals? Remember my driving dogs away with PK? Lifting the car off my trapped hand with PK? Remember how you stood there and watched me map out routes for the hurricanes to follow...and they followed; my routes? Remember my using Emmy-Emma technique to cause an earthquake on the California coast, and telling Mangels a day ahead of time, as a witness...and then it hit the next day? Remember the Needles Operation? Remember my throwing fire PK at California, and then those great fires of 1965 hit? And so on and so on. Then we found out that the UFO intelligences were supplying the power, and doing the hitting. I pointed out the targets. If anybody doesn't believe you...show them the attached copy of my March 9 letter to George Clark, CIA, whom you met....telling what the Si's were going to do at the North/South Pole. Then show them one of the newspaper clippings telling what happened five months later...when the Si's carried out this assignment, to PROVE I was working with and for them. Any spot I hit with PK...the grass is never the same again. Anybody I hit with PK, is never the same again, if they survive. And so it goes. And anybody I save with PK, like Brenda Sue Pennington (you were there, Lornie) is never the same again. Reason I am sending this one document to you for proof, instead of any of the hundreds of others I have...is because somebody could say that perhaps it is pure precognition...that I am good at predicting ahead of time what is going to happen, and that's all. They'll say that rules out Si's. But...to say that I could predict a change in the electromagnetic setup of the South Pole, and that it would be reported in the newspapers...is ridiculous for plain precognition. And it happened months later, not days. And a flying saucer was there to prove my Si point...and was seen by scientists. The utterly ingenious way in which this was done...was proof by the Si's, that they tell me what will happen, then make it happen. And they give me power, too. === Page 11 of 220 1/11/66 P2 2 Lornie Rick 1/11/66 Now, enclosed you find some clippings. Be sure and send them back for my files.

Love, Dad 08/06/2025 16:13 === Page 12 of 220 S. Pole Bases MY LTR. RE HEAT AT POLAR BASES "J" 1/11/66 R3 'Flying Saucer' Is Reported SANTIAGO, Chile, July 8 1965 (AP). - From the Antarctic Thursday came official reports that a mysterious lens-shaped flying object, maneuvering and moving at great speed, was sighted last Saturday. A Chilean base commander in the Antarctic reported the object was "yellowish red, changing to green, yellow and orange." In Buenos Aires, the Navy issued a communique saying personnel at Argentina's Antarctic base saw the flying object and photographed it. Mario Jahn Barrera, commander of the Chilean base, told the Defense Ministry by radio that it would be too much to say that "all of us saw a flying saucer, one of these science-fiction things." "However," he continued, "it was something real, an object that moved at amazing speed, maneuvered quickly and gave off a blue-green sheen. It also caused interference in the electromagnetic apparatus of an Argentine base which is facing ours on a nearby small island." The interference was confirmed by the Navy communique issued in Buenos Aires. 7/8/65 "The object was yellowish red," Jahn said, "changing to green, yellow and orange. It would zigzag quickly. Then it stopped and we promptly reached for field glasses, telescopes, anything at hand to sight it. We watched as it remained quietly there for about 20 minutes." Jahn said a corporal took color pictures but there are no facilities for developing the film. The men must wait for eight months to be relieved to have the film developed on the mainland. March 9, 1965. George: (CIA) Last night I got a real shock. Someone called home before I got home from base, and my boy, Harvey, took the call. It was someone from St. Paul, interested "in my offer". My brilliant son did not get the name or location... the party said they would call back... but they never did. I almost had an offer from somebody interested in PK, before I strike out at Gelman. ...back to the same theme, George. I guarantee (and look at the astounding I have had with practically all my projects) to reverse the current the U.S. getting the shaft every day, in every way... and can change mate in V to winning for us, and bringing about what the U.S. wants.. done with PK as easily as bringing about storms... knocking down putting officials in the hospital, etc. Mr. McCone's sister passing away... and PK had nothing to do with that, if Mr. C. thought it had... he would send me to V and have me dropped parachute over VC headquarters. There are two interesting things now to tell you: (1) Nature has told me to tell you that to prove it is using me as its representative, it will do something without my using PK, or knowing any of its workings. Nature will, in the near future, change the North and South Poles. As the message came to me, I believe it will use extreme heat to affect those two places... and change the magnetic condition of the Poles. Nature added that you won't have to check with any Bureau on it... that the result will be strong enough to make the newspapers, where you can read about it. Note; this is the first time anything like this has occurred. I don't know what Nature is talking about, or what it plans. Will be interesting to see. (2) Exercise Silver Lance was useless, for test purposes. An invalid experiment. Any results from the Exercise are not worth the paper they are printed on. Why? Because Silver Lance was conducted in a growing, active PK field, with a wide variety of mechanisms at work in the field that would undoubtedly affect the Exercise to a large extent. The field is Electra; the California coast. If you doubt this statement, just look at Electro, in Florida, and what has happened there in my first PK field. Since July the entire area has been like an elephant with the nervous shakes; staggering around drunk in a china shop. There have been hurricanes criss-crossing the place; planes have been falling down; President Johnson narrowly escaped bad injury on two occasions; the Space Eye burned down; and over a dozen rockets and missiles either blew up, fell down, or got up and went haywire. So don't tell me the PK doesn't work on an area. So, Silver Lance, to be a true experiment in the logical sense of the word, would have to be held somewhere else, without PK affecting it, to get a valid idea of its results, test-wise. Check? Hoping the U.S. Government will use this tool, sometime this week, I remain PK Man 08/06/2025 16:13 === Page 13 of 220 Tuesday January 11, 1966 Copy - Rick & Lorrie Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's have instructed me to tell the U.S. Government that, if the government does not ally with them within an appreciably short time... they will use the colored people of the United States as a whip against the white...in a way never before done, and on a scale never dreamed possible. They will use the same method that they used to bring about the strike in New York, making it a financial disaster area. The result will be much more than a billion-dollar Betsy, or billion-dollar NY strike, and will make the L.A. race riots seem like a kindergarten exercise. And you know something, George...I don't doubt for a minute they can do it. Dad *(This is the meaning of the map of the U.S. with the death's head they sent me, then to you...not long ago. An over-all US disaster, not limited to boundaries.) PS They also want me to tell you: They are beaming something (I think it is light, or a sound) at Johnson's head...and so shortly, within days or few weeks...he should have trouble with his head. There is a reason for them telling you this...wanting you to know what they are doing...and how they are doing it. I guess they'll tell the reason later. They do not tell it now; only the action they are taking. === Page 14 of 220 Wednesday January 12, 1966 Rick Lornie I wrote you a letter yesterday, and got stamps at the PO last night...but before I could mail the letter this morning, a UFO made news this morning. Now, as you know, for two weeks I have been communicating with the Si's, asking them to appear at Cape Kennedy, as a signal to the US Government. Instead, they waited, and appeared last night not too far from here in New Jersey, over a water reservoir...and they stayed there so they would be seen, positively and definitely..........instead of Cape Kennedy. Why? Appearing over the water reservoir was a message to the Government, for one thing. Also, appearing just as Johnson is going to give his big message today to the US, is another reason. They appeared over the water-reservoir in New Jersey, to show that they are here in this very area, active. They appeared over the reservoir to warn the US Government, once again, to let me end the drought, using their (Si) power to do it. They appeared just before President Johnson's speech...as a warning to the President of their reality, and in verification of what I have been saying for them. There should be an article in the paper today on it. I'll clip it, and send it enclosed, along with yesterday's letter...which oddly enough dealt with UFO's.

Love, Dad PS Not a word of the UFO in Phila. paper!! Means Govt has Phila. sewed up!! === Page 16 of 220 Jan. 14, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Copy - Rick Dear George: I am appalled by the apathy of the U.S. Government in checking leads, no matter how "far out" they may be. Now, just lately in my correspondence to you I told you that I would try to get the Si's to display a craft at Cape Kennedy for an extended period of time, to prove that I communicate with them and they understand. They chose, instead, to do this in New Jersey, over the Wanaque reservoir. Sent you the info on that yesterday. The point is this...they want to make a personal meeting with me...and the Govt. should have rushed me to that exact spot and given me an opportunity to communicate and bring them down, right there. I have the means of doing this. No one else has. Same thing with their appearance in Michigan, and Florida, some time ago. I should have been sent there by the Govt....rushed...and been given an opportunity to meet them, by talking them down to the spot again. I am talking about the craft, now. We have had Si phenomena in our apartment, believe it or not, these past few weeks...but it is necessary to bring down a craft, and meet it. Two great "fireballs" have landed in Pa. since September, on two different occasions. These were the Si's, and they did not land in Pa. by accident. I am in Pa. They wish to meet me. This was brought out long ago in correspondence, when they stipulated conditions on how they wanted to meet me. But of course, US Govt. made no answer. I wrote you in advance of the events, that the Si's would create an earthquake and a disaster area (this on Dec. 28.) They did just that...a mild earthquake in New York and Pa., followed by a billion-dollar financial disaster in NYC. I told you that Pres. Johnson would be involved in the disaster area. Well, he tried not to be...but it was extended until he was forced into the matter. It is a great pity that I can get no cooperation from my Government to meet a Si craft, and make arrangements with them for future events. P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St. #33 Phila., Pa. 08/06/2025 16:16 === Page 17 of 220 January 14, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's want me to repeat to the US Govt. again what they will give, if they are cooperated with: (1) A prosperous United States..........better than ever before in its history. (2) Peace..........wars and discord will cease with other countries, and other countries will no longer react with distrust and anger toward the U.S. (3) Protection from hurricanes and other forms of Nature-disaster that have heretofore stricken the U.S. (4) An end to racial strife in the U.S. Peace among the black and white peoples. (5) Less illness and sickness and disease than ever before in history. (6) New leaders to improve the U.S., of a type and kind scarcely found in our history. (7) An end to drought..........plenty of water for the U.S. (See #3). (8) Help..........with medical and scientific advances toward the betterment of the human race. Their sustained appearances in New Jersey this last Tuesday night were a solid message in symbolic physical form. My communication with them also gives you the above..........which they have stated before, if you will look at your correspondence from me. I only wish Mr. Dunn could have been at Wanaque reservoir last Tuesday night, and then he would believe in my "causal factor." Sincerely, P K Man. === Page 18 of 220 January 19, 1966 Mr. Dunn, Chief Hurricane Center, Miami, Florida. Dear Mr. Dunn: I recently made you an offer, based on factual knowledge of my true ability (I know it; you perhaps do not) with regard to keeping hurricanes away from Florida. Complete, and I mean complete, safety from hurricanes. Now allow me to add to my offer: I saw a program on TV, which gave a pictorial outline of a terrible drought in the Florida Everglades National Park. It was pitiful. So, I will include with my hurricane protection for Florida...much rainfall for the Florida Everglades, to the point where the Everglades will have a plentiful supply of water, as long as I am on the job. My causal factor for these seeming impossibilities..........UFO power. I have it at my request and command. I have used it extensively. It has come to pass almost without a miss. Taking me up on the proposition that I made you, and the State of Florida, would be the luckiest and most fortunate thing Florida has ever had happen. And remember...I will willingly go to prison if I fail. Could anything be fairer? Very truly yours, P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St., #33 Philadelphia, Pa. === Page 19 of 220 January 18, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: All right. I have tried. The Si's have tried. Still the U.S. Government is not convinced. x So, George, the Si's will demonstrate catastrophe-wise, in a tremendous way, against the U.S. in the next few days, next few weeks. I will ask them, also, to appear and be seen, as they were in New Jersey, as a sort of signature to their catastrophe-demonstration. Rick Lorne P K Man P.S. Right now they will end the horrible drought in South Africa - if you'll let them. Fly me over? === Page 20 of 220 January 19, 1966 Miss Ghandi, Prime Minister New Delhi India Dear Miss Prime Minister: I have heard, with great concern, of the terrible drought in India. It lies within my power to bring about all of the rainfall for India that you may need...for that is my specialty. I am a "rainmaker" and have never failed. Should you be interested in allowing me to give your country much rain, to end the drought, please contact me as soon as possible. I wish no fee for my services; my only desire is to help the peoples of India with my incredible talent. Respectfully, P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St. #33 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. P.S. I sent this same offer to Prime Minister Shastri, about a week before his tragic death. === Page 21 of 220 January 19, 1966 Ambassador to Africa African Consulate Washington, D. C. Dear Sir: Enclosed please find my card. I specialize in creating rain over large areas. And I have never failed. Recently I saw a program on TV that outlined the desperate situation now prevailing in South Africa with regard to the drought. I can end the African drought, completely, and give Africa all of the rainfall that it needs. I alone, have the means to do so. If you are interested, please contact me as soon as possible. There would be no charge or fee for my services; the only thing that I am interested in is...to help the people of South Africa. And by giving them all the rainfall they need in the coming weeks and months, would be my pleasure. Respectfully, Mr. Sota (P K Man, Owens) 1114 Spruce St. Philadelphia, Pa. === Page 22 of 220 January 20, 1966 President Johnson The White House Rick Lornie Well, sir, today I am lucky. Have a few spare moments, and access to a typewriter...so will take advantage of the unusual combination, and drop you a line with regard to UFO's...Si's...saucer intelligences. As you probably know...the UFO's made quite an appearance in New Jersey on the night of January 11. And they did just what I had asked them to do...they appeared, and stayed, for a long time, so that many people could see them and there would be no doubt whatsoever about their existence. Not only that...they used some kind of ray to burn a hole in the ice of the Wanaque Reservoir, as a demonstration of their ability with that particular tool, whatever it was. Prior to their appearance I had written George Clark and predicted a U.S. earthquake, a catastrophe of huge dimension, and the appearance of the Si's at Cape Kennedy as a "signature" that when these things happened, ahead in the future, the U.S. Government would know, for sure, that the Si's brought it about. First, the earthquake occurred. (A slight one, but it made the front page of the Philadelphia paper. In New York. Next, the billion-and-a-half dollar New York strike occurred. Here, the Si's were being merciful. Only a money disaster. Not a "people" disaster, or terrible wreckage as occurred with Hurricane Betsy. Third, the Si's made their appearance THEIR way...not at the Cape...but at Wanaque, New Jersey (and many other towns there, as well.) This week, because the U.S. Government still would not cooperate with them, after all their work to prove their point...the Si's had me write George Clark that they would be forced then to provide a real, honest to gosh catastrophe that the U.S. Government could appreciate....then make another UFO appearance as a "signature" to it. What amazes me is...by now there can be no doubt, none whatsoever, that the Si's are for real. After I predicted the South Pole electromagnetic change....and the UFO showed up there, and caused it; and now the long, full appearance of the Si's at Wanaque...the U.S. Government no longer can have any doubt that all of these things I have been writing about the past year, certainly must be true. And when you analyze the scope and variety of the powers utilized to bring about the various phenomena...guiding hurricanes, influencing masses of people, causing earthquakes in specific locations, eliminating planes, ships and attacking subs....and so on and so on...then the U.S. Government, if it has any intelligence at all, to my way of thinking, should not hesitate to reach out to the Si's in 08/06/2025 16:16 === Page 23 of 220 1/20/66 P2 January 20, 1966 friendship and accept their offer to help the U.S. in the following way: End the US drought and bring about excellent geographical physical changes in the land, water and soil. End the Viet Nam war, and bring about peace for the US with foreign countries, as well as change the thinking of foreign countries toward the US from hostile to friendly. Help the US Government find some REAL thinkers and REAL men and REAL leaders to help build this great country up again into a magnificent place. Take damaging hurricanes, like Betsy, that threaten the US, off in a harmless direction. Protect US shipping, airplanes, subs, etc., from collisions, fire, etc. Help the US make REALLY great advances in Science and Medicine. And many, many other wonderful things for the U.S. This is what they WANT to do. Once that is done, then they will go to work to fix up and patch up the rest of the world, to get it in good operating condition, without hate...wars...killing, etc. The only thing holding all of these good things back is the failure of the US Govt. to accept me as the Si representative, set me up as I need to be set up to work with them. Because I am the only human that can talk to them, and receive intelligence from them. I do not have all of the answers pertaining to the Si's. And many times I do make errors in communication with them, because of its obvious difficulty. But in the past year, if you'll examine my file with my various contacts, you will see that literally miracles have been accomplished...in a destructive, negative way...the ONLY way necessary to bring this to the attention of the US Govt. and to finally convince the US Govt. (sooner or later.) My wife and I most likely are the only humans who have had the Si's appear in an apartment, as they did our apartment, on several occasions. But they cannot get to us with their craft...and this is a necessity. Right now I should be in England, Ireland, or Scotland...out in the countryside, away from masses of people, so the Si's can bring their craft to me. They want this badly. I haven't yet learned why. Owens P K/Man (Owens) 111 1/4 Spruce St. #33 Philadelphia, Pa. 08/06/2025 16:16 === Page 24 of 220 January 21, 1966 President Johnson Dear President Johnson: I have been sending you some mighty unusual letters...based on part with regard to UFO's...and on part, to unusual powers of my own. Now, you can check me out. At Duke University, when I was a secretary for the world-famous scientist, Dr. J. B. Rhine, he personally investigated...with the help of other scientists in the field of parapsychology, my strange abilities. I was able, in full light, at Dr. Rhine's home, surrounded by Dr. Rhine and his associates, to knock a pair of scissors off of a table...by sheer concentration and willpower. The scissors were securely propped up by Dr. Rhine himself on a table fully 10-15 feet away from where I was seated, across the room. I willed the scissors to fall down...but they were knocked flying clear off the table. Dr. Rhine himself then went forward and examined the table, and picked the scissors up off the floor. I think there were about 5-7 scientists present at the time. So you see...when I talk about PK (which was the ability I used above) I do know what I am talking about. Sincerely, Owens PK Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce, #33 Phila., Pa. === Page 25 of 220 January 24, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: My accuracy with "PK" work, in conjunction with the Si's, has been roughly 96% accurate. Rarely a miss, but a miss did just occur, and thought you would be interested to know the details of it. When I appeared on the local radio here in Philadelphia, and got the paper write-up...then suddenly everything was cut off...and the "Rain Maker" received no offers, no takers...I consulted with the Si's, and the upshot was that we placed this area in a "PK Bubble" - that is, sealed off the area, so that precipitation in any form would not fall on this area...and if it should, there would not be enough to matter. This worked just fine, beautifully, I might say...matter of fact, if I could have blocked off the snowstorm we had over this weekend, a 100 year record would have been broken here. But...the PK failed to block the snowstorm; it got through...and so, you see, the PK and the Si's do not always hit the bullseye. 96 out of 100 times they do, but I thought you might like to know of this failure. At least, I guess it is a failure. Unless the Si's wanted this precipitation to get the violent storm in this area...for reasons of their own...to cause a disaster area somewhere soon...and this storm was necessary to their plan. We shall see. If suddenly California or a Western area is racked up with a booming, violent storm, creating a real disaster area...then I'll know what the Si's are up to. If it wasn't just a miss. S P K Man (Owens - Rain Maker) P.S. The recent two mysterious "fireballs" that landed in Pennsylvania, and the recent UFO that parked itself over Wanaque reservoir in New Jersey... were my little friends. Odd that the New Jersey newspapers put the "Wanaque UFO" on their front pages, and not a mention in the Philadelphia papers. The Mayor of Wanaque and thousands of N.J. people saw the UFO...responsible citizens even saw it burn a big hole in the ice with a ray. === Page 26 of 220 1/25/66 P1 Lornie - thought you'd like to see this letter from Brenda Sue's mother. Jan 25 - 66 Mr. Ted Owens Dear Mr. Owens Just a few lines to let you know about Brenda Sue. We have talked & wondered about you folks a lot. It seemed I just never got around to writing. Hope you & your family are fine. Brenda has improved a lot although she doesn't walk talk or feed herself. But the Dr said if she continued to improve he would put her in braces in May she seems to know everything you say to her but just can't answer you she does do everything she can when you tell her to so we are still hoping & praying for the best. I want to thank you & your daughter again for what you did. We have had Brenda home since the 7th of May 08/06/2025 16:16 === Page 27 of 220 1/25/66 p2 it has been a year today since they found her. I don't guess they are any nearer solving the case than they were then. The Millers are fine I said give you their best regards. Wishing you folks the best in everything. We remain your friends. Thank you for writing us. Mr. & Mrs. Dennie Pennington East Rainelle W.Va. === Page 28 of 220 DUE TO FEB. 11 OPERATION, SHE WAS SINKING; WE WENT SUNDAY FEB. 14 ① " " 21 ② " " 28 ③ 1/25/66 p3 Tuesday February 16, 1965 Dear Mr. and Mrs. Penningtons My daughter and I were very happy to meet you on Sunday, Mr. Pennington...and my daughter expressed regret that she could not meet Mrs. Pennington at the time. It might amuse you, Mr. Pennington, that Lorrie, my daughter, described you as a "great big bear of a man, with real kind, gentle eyes...good eyes." We also appreciated the cooperation of yourselves, the police, and the medical staff in allowing us to enter your daughter's room and use our system in an effort to bring life into your daughter. You might be interested in a few facts pertaining to our System: As far as we know it is not used at any location in the world today, except by ourselves, here in Washington. Our System was used, long ago, during the days of Moses and the Egyptians. It usually takes two to five days to take effect...full effect. Therefore, somewhere between Sunday and Friday, we anticipate that your daughter will open her eyes, and begin to progress, into full health, eventually. And, due to our System, her recovery will be much, much more rapid than under normal circumstances. As a matter of fact, her rate of recovery should be amazing. Our only hope is that we were not called in too late...allowed to come in too late. This factor is very difficult to ascertain. Just how near, or far away, from the line of Life and Death, she may be at the time. However, I used this System on a girl in Texas, near death, and unconscious... and saved her with it. Her father and brother carried her up to my apartment in Fort Worth, deep in a coma. She is alive and happy today. Once we make our initial effort on the scene...in your daughter's room...then we can continue from a distance, with your daughter seen in our mind's eye. And that is what we are doing now, night and day. We work in shifts on it. We would greatly appreciate your letting us know of her progress...how she is... now and then...so that we can gauge our work accordingly. And if we win this battle with death...and your daughter arises, happy and healthy...it is our hope that we may be allowed to visit her at the hospital and say hello to her. Of course, I must add, it is not my daughter and myself who are doing these marvelous things with PK (the name of the System) but it is Nature itself. (The same Nature that puts life into new babies, can put life into your daughter and keep it there.) Sincerely, Ted Owens (P K Man) 418 Peabody Street, NW Washington, D. C.

Detective Russell L. Runyon said he would pay the reward for information resulting in the arrest and conviction of the person who apparently stole a portable television set and a heavy decanter from the Arlington girl's apartment, and brutally attacked her at the same time last Jan. 25. Runyon said the 14-inch decanter, made of dark, smoked glass, was believed to be the weapon with which Miss Pennington was struck several times on the head. He said a matching decanter was left in her apartment. Still Unconscious A clerical worker has been unconscious in Arlington Hospital since she was found on the floor of her bedroom. She has remained in critical condition despite four skull operations. Runyon appealed to the public to watch for the television set if it is offered for sale in the Washington metropolitan area. He described it as a 19-inch Zenith portable, with the serial number 304-8702. Also missing from Miss Pennington's one-bedroom apartment when she was beaten was her pocketbook containing her wallet and personal papers. Runyon said some 135 persons have been questioned by himself and other Arlington detectives working on the case, but no major leads have been developed. He asked anyone with information regarding the assault to call the Arlington police station at JA 7-2900 and talk to himself, Detective Willard C. Knight, Detective Sgt. George Coppage or Lt. John E. Cullins. Runyon said that Miss Pennington apparently was last seen about 11 a.m. the day before she was found. He said neighbors saw her leave her apartment that Sunday morning with an unidentified man, described as tall, heavy-set blond, and get into a car with him. She was found about 9 a.m. the next Monday morning, lying on the floor of her bedroom next to the telephone. Runyon said he was offering the personal reward money because he felt it was important for residents to feel safe. An Arlington detective has appealed to the public for any information about a television set and a decanter, similar to the ones pictured, taken from the apartment of Brenda Sue Pennington, 19, victim of a brutal beating. # Girl in Coma Since Beating Is Moved 3/2/65 Brenda Sue Pennington, 19, an Arlington career girl who has remained unconscious since she was brutally beaten in her apartment two months ago, has been transferred to a West Virginia hospital near her home of Quinnwood. Officials at Greenbriar Valley Hospital in Ronceverte, W.Va., said today Miss Pennington was resting satisfactorily after the transfer Saturday from Arlington Hospital. During her stay at Arlington Hospital, she hovered in critical or near-critical condition for weeks. Miss Pennington was found unconscious in her one-bedroom apartment the morning of Jan. 25. A portable television set, a heavy brass decanter and her purse were missing from the apartment. Meanwhile, a reward fund started by an Arlington detective investigating the case has grown to $900. Detective Russell L. Runyon started the fund with a personal pledge of $500 for information leading to conviction of the assailant. MONTH LATER!! (3/29) SHE LIVED!! WAS TAKEN HOME. I STARTED ON THIS CASE HERE # Beaten Girl in Coma, Condition Is Critical 2/25 Brenda Sue Pennington, the Arlington girl who was the victim of a vicious beating last month, underwent surgery Thursday to relieve pressure on her brain and remained in critical condition yesterday Meanwhile, several Northern Virginians, have begun raising contributions to help pay for Miss Pennington's mounting medical expenses. A fund for the family has been established at the Fidelity National Bank in Arlington. Miss Pennington, 19, was found unconscious in her apartment Jan. 25. Police said she was clubbed on the head a number of times with an unknown instrument. For a few days, she reached semi-consciousness but her parents, who live in West Virginia to maintain a vigil near her, have not been able to communicate with her. Robert M. Cooper, of 407 Park Ave., McLean, announced the drive for contributions yesterday. Although he did not know the Pennington family until the tragedy occurred, he has spoken to the parents and has joined with others to help them, he said. Cooper, who is an electrical inspector for Arlington County, said the nursing fees alone cost the family $330 every five days. Contributors may mail checks, payable to Fidelity National Bank, at 2009 N. 14th St., Arlington. Frank Embrey, bank president, said the checks should be accompanied by a note indicating the money is for Brenda Sue Pennington. # Fund Started for Victim of Beating 2/15 A fund has been started by a 19-year-old Arlington girl who was badly beaten by an intruder in her apartment. The fund, to pay hospital expenses for Brenda Sue Pennington, of 1632 Oak st., is being held by Fidelity National Bank of Arlington. Checks should be accompanied by a note indicating they for the fund. Miss Pennington, a business machine operator, is still unconscious and in critical condition at Arlington Hospital. Last week she underwent brain surgery, an operation that piled even more expenses on bills that exceed $60 daily. Her assailant is still at large. I SAW THESE TWO CLIPS IN PAPER. THE "INTELLIGENCE TOLD ME TO CALL. I DID. POLICE, FAMILY & HOSPITAL (DOCTORS, ETC) OK'D TRYING MY "PK", BECAUSE === Page 30 of 220 January 25, 1966 Dear Lornie: I hope that you are getting along fine in school, and that all is well. Everything is quiet here...right now. But you know, with me...all hell can break loose, any time, any place. Our days are all pretty much the same...to work early, home at 6, where Martha has a hot supper waiting and Beau has a big kiss for me. Then TV, with Beau scrambling to get into my lap. He's so funny...if I bring home a beer, he runs like mad and gets a glass or cup before I even can get the beer out of the sack. And when he climbs into my lap every evening, after supper, to watch TV, first he brings a pillow to put his head on, then his pa-pa (blanket) to hold on to. I tell you he's cute. Once in a while, if Beau gets off my lap to do something, then Martha jumps out of her chair, which is alongside mine, and quickly takes Beau's place in my lap. Then of course Beau runs back and climbs up into her lap, which makes a sort of human pyramid...with me on the bottom trying to smoke a cigar. It is a comical sight. Soon am going to try to make some extra money, some way. Been relaxing long enough, just breaking even. Time to get ahead. This morning Martha said, "Say, if Jim Shannon is so young...like 25 or 27, then why isn't he in the draft, or in the Service?" No matter what PK I hit LA and Calif. with...you kids have no worry. You are protected. Was astonished to see an ad on TV where two kids are in a bubble, floating in the air, and the ad said: "How would you like to have your kids in a bubble of protection?" Be sure, you kids, to read my letters to each other...when I write one, it's for the other one to know about, too. So, take turns. Hope you and Rick liked the color pictures that were taken in Washington. The best one was of you and Beau, upstairs. What did you think of my big, fat letter last week with the photostats of the Si's being seen all night near here in New Jersey...and shooting a ray that burnt a big hole in the ice? The mayor of the town, the cops, and thousands of people saw the Si's that night. Write, Spellbound, when you can. love and kisses.......... P.S. Was there a power blackout in L.A.? If so, please send clipping on it. Tappy Owens 08/06/2025 16:26 === Page 31 of 220 January 26, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: This is a very important letter, that the Si's have instructed me to send you. First...notice the high incidence of key aircraft destroyed this month, along with key people. Just to name a few recent ones...the nuclear-bomber downed over Spain; the Air India crash over Switzerland, carrying India's top nuclear scientist; the Viet Nam troop plane crash, the worst in the history of the war there with 47 dead; the brand-new top-secret spy plane that just crashed this week in New Mexico - and so on. Now, to understand how the Si's knock down these planes...look at the news clips I sent you on the UFO sighting at Wanaque reservoir...and see how the UFO, while people watched, sent out a ray to burn a hole in the ice of the reservoir. Only, it didn't "burn" a hole. The ray is a force ray. To knock down a plane, they hit it with the ray, and the ray simply sets the plane on fire...although the ray does not contain heat. To eliminate a person, such as Adlai Stevenson, Shastri, etc., they hit them with a ray and it just stops the bodily mechanism cold..doesn't burn them. These UFO's can be as large as the entire United States (they have four of them this size, using rays to affect the world's weather) or they can be as small as the size of a dime..and the small ones are as deadly as the large ones. Or as constructive, whatever is on at the time. The UFO's, which are of light...not actual materials...travel at the speed of light...are controlled by a headquarters, located elsewhere, and obtain their ray-power from headquarters by remote control. They gave me the okay to tell you all of this, without giving me a reason. They never give me reasons, as a rule...just instructions. What they are going to do next is...shrink the monies which are donated to Radio Free Europe, Heart Fund, Cancer Fund...all such. Picture a large circle, which is now the amount of monies donated by peoples to all sorts of activities, government and otherwise...shrink this large circle down to a small spot...and you get the idea. People will simply stop giving. When the U.S. Government is ready to listen...the Si's will tell them exactly what it is that they want. Which is not much at all...and very simple. Their efforts to convince the U.S. Govt. of their reality...have cost the U.S. billions of dollars already. And for only $100,000 and a bit of cooperation, this could have been avoided. And the billions to come that will be lost...could be avoided. P K Man (Owens) Owens 08/06/2025 16:26 === Page 32 of 220 1/26/66 p2 1/26/66 George: The Si's want me to add this example, or illustration, of the speed of their UFO "craft" - they say: Point a flashlight, angled upward, into a mirror, in a dark room. Then push the button and turn the flashlight on. The speed with which the light hits the mirror, then reflects up onto the ceiling...is the speed with which their craft move (and also may be a clue to how they move.) It also is an indication of how they make "impossible" right-angle or sharp degree turns, at the speed of light. Just like light hitting a mirror and glancing off in another direction. I am not a physicist, or a scientist...but I wish I were...for the above information they gave me would be darn interesting to try and look into. Anyway, they wanted you to have the information. And there it is. P K Man (Owens) === Page 33 of 220 Copy - Rick Loonie January 28, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The President is, at present, in a quandary. Whether to bomb North Vietnam some more; bomb more extensively; nor hold off entirely. If the Government would like to have the advice of the UFO intelligences (Si's) then I submit it: There is a huge black shadow hanging over U.S. forces in Viet Nam...a threatening force which is not seen at this time by the U.S. An unforeseen factor, disastrous. More extensive aggressive military force by the U.S. there will unleash this force, causing the U.S. forces terrible loss of manpower and equipment, and terrible loss of money. Too much for us to bear. A little military force...just enough to hold the status quo...they say is like being a little bit pregnant. It is no good. Worthless to us as military accomplishment and worthless to us as international prestige. Thus they rule out minimum military action...and they rule out maximum military action. This leaves only complete withdrawal of all military forces as soon as possible. Not on moral grounds; not because we are beaten militarily; not on political grounds....but because U.S. forces there will be destroyed, and we will be terribly hurt financially...if it is not done, quickly. Yes, undoubtedly the Viet Cong will then take over Viet Nam (Saigon) and get even with those who have opposed them. But the Si's say this is not as bad as what will happen if the U.S. extends operations, or tries to hold at a minimum of operation. Better, they say, to retreat, than be wiped out. At West Point they surely must point out, in teaching the history of wars, that many famous war-leaders and Generals had to retreat at times, to avoid catastrophe. They couldn't win 'em all. If Napoleon had sensed a trap at Waterloo, and not committed his forces, he would have gone on to greater victories, probably. If Hitler had sensed a giant trap in Russia, and withdrawn his forces, that, too, would have made a great difference in the war. We, now, are in the same trap. And it is a trap. If we try to go on...quick escalation will lead, as surely as night follows day, a huge war between the forces of U.S. and Asia. And we will not win, either. Because Asia is clear across the globe...and because while we are battling the huge manpower forces of Asia, Russia will be cutting at our backs, thus you have the picture of a big, powerful moose...with wolves in front of it...and wolves in back of it. And our Allies will be much too afraid to try to help us; they will keep out of it, agreement or no PK Man 08/06/2025 16:26 === Page 34 of 220 January 31, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: And so, once again, the Si's have proven my prediction correct. On January 18 I wrote to you and warned you that the U.S. would have a demonstration catastrophe within the next few days or few weeks. I think this has come about, don't you? And the U.S. Capitol was the bullseye...hardest hit, according to the radio. Snow and cold, the worst in 100 years, radio said. Coldest in dozens of cities it has ever been in the memory of those cities. The Si's have just spoken to you .......... again. (When I say "you" of course I mean you as representing the U.S. Government...since I am their spokes and you are the government spokesman I speak with.) They are now curious to know...must they do something worse than put the entire U.S. in a deep-freeze? Or will the U.S. make friends with them. They wait patiently for some kind of answer, sometime.

Remember last year, George...when I told you the Si's were gettin ready to strike within a few days, a few weeks...and they did, sending dozens of tornados and near tornados through six states.. and giant floods throughout the Midwest...all at the same time, wrecking the area. If the Government were smart, they would count the natural disast and catastrophic accidents that happened since I have been writin as the Si's representative...and they would easily see the follow words in the newspaper write-ups by the hundreds: "The Atlas miss that blew up on the pad at Cape Kennedy...was an impossibility. pad that lightning struck, with the missile on it, was lightning- The NASA program this year has been plagued with mishaps. The co was most unusual, in that it covered the entire United States. T crash of the giant plane is being investigated, because there was apparent sign of trouble. And so forth.

Johnson wants future House elections to be concurrent with Presidential elections. Scott is strongly opposed to concurrent elections and argues that they would "deprive the public of any opportunity to correct the excesses of a strong President or the mistakes of a weak one." This shortcoming is one of the arguments that has traditionally been used against moves to lengthen the terms of House members. Scott firmly believes that they should be lengthened so that members of the House will have more time to do their jobs and not be forced to devote so much time to mending political fences back home. But Scott suggests that all Representatives be elected at midterm so that the public will have an opportunity to apprise the President of the people's will. If House terms are to be extended, Scott's midterm proposal would seem to be preferable. # Crackdown on Drug Abuses There were cheers from many quarters last year when amendments to control drug abuses were added to the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. Those amendments become effective tomorrow. They provide strict penalties for the illegal manufacture, distribution, delivery and possession of more than 300 types of stimulant and depressant drugs. Included in the amendments are barbiturates (goofballs) amphetamines (pep pills) and other drugs that can cause hallucinations or effect the brain. The amendments are fine but they would mean little without some practical method of enforcement. Unfortunately, enforcement will lag. A special branch of the Food and Drug Administration has been created to enforce the amendments. The Bureau of Drug Abuse Control is seeking 278 agents who will work out of five field district headquarters. Philadelphia will be served (it remains to be seen how well) through the New York City district office. The new bureau will not be fully operational until next December. By then, we trust, the new bureau will be making some serious inroads into the illegal traffic in pep pills, goofballs and related drugs--a traffic that brings huge profits to some and potential tragedy to its many victims. # Cookie Time Again This is a delightfully dangerous time of the year for those who must count their calories and, for that matter, those who do not.

It says that Secretary of State Dean Rusk, who is a very important, highly-placed man in Government, recently said, "The world is round. Only one-third of the human beings asleep at one time, and the other two-thirds are awake and up to some mischief somewhere." This is terrible. If what he says is true--and surely the Secretary of State wouldn't tell a lie--then Mr. Rusk has to be either: (1) Asleep, or (2) Up to some mischief somewhere. --H. T.

An overdue appraisal of a budget far from what is needed here in Pennsylvania. Governor Scranton's budget ignores vast areas of the Commonwealth face serious economic problems, particularly here in our sister city of Philadelphia, behind in the race for jobs. I do think that it should be noted that the "Diagnosis" you mention, the Economy Report, prepared for the State by Milton Shapp, is used by the Democratic candidate for Governor. This Shapp report was also the basis for the charges made against Scranton by House Minority Leader Joshua Eilberg. It represents a thorough study of the methods of preparing a budget in these economic times.

They ask...and I don't know what they mean at all..."how would the U.S. like to lose the State of Florida?" Now for a simple suggestion from a simple person....me. Why doesn't the U.S. reverse the Viet Cong's attack? That is, the VC attack Saigon...why don't we (South Vietnamese) attack the capitol of North Vietnam? It's made to order, George, with water all around. Take a force of picked, commando-type Vietnamese to Guam...train them...and fly them back among the usual big bombers. Parachute them near the North Viet Nam Capitol...at the same time let subs pop up and disgorge a lot of frogmen, who go onto the beach in the same area, to attack the capitol and help the chutists. With this shock-wave of tropps raising hell..and going after Ho himself...then let ships come sweeping round the bend and send thousands of men ashore, near the capitol, to attack. The pressure of this should draw troops away from South Viet Nam, quickly. Note, am not recommending American troops for this. Just because it might be a tricky political thing. If it wouldn't make any difference, then they could go in, too. On the Viet Nam chessboard...the action has all been on one side of the board. Time, I would say, to take a crack at the King of the other side of the board.

Note that I called a disastrous storm...but picked the wrong half of the country. Ha ha. I knew definitely that the Si's were up to something on their own...because they were over-riding our "bubble" PK we'd slapped on this area. Up to storm-time, they'd blocked precipitation perfectly. Note one other thing: A mysterious fire-ball landed in Pennsylvania...before the tremendous New York City power blackout. A UFO put on a regular exhibition all night, for thousands of people, in the Wanaque, New Jersey, area...just before the Blizzard of '66 struck. You have to notice these things, George. Anyway, as you can see here, on January 18 I told you the Si's would demonstrate, catastrophe-wise, in a tremendous way, against the U.S., in the next few days, next few weeks. Even Mr. Dunn could not ask for anything more specific than that. And you got the killer Blizzard of '66. PK Man Rick - am sending you your own personal pool cue. Watch for it. Dad. === Page 44 of 220 2/2/66 P2 COPY January 18, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: See your copy! All right. I have tried. The Si's have tried. Still the U.S. Government is not convinced. So, George, the Si's will demonstrate catastrophe-wise, in a tremendous way, against the U.S. in the next few days, next few weeks. I will ask them, also, to appear and be seen, as they were in New Jersey, as a sort of signature to their catastrophe-demonstration. P K Man === Page 45 of 220 2/2/66 p3 NY TIMES # The Blizzard of '66 2/1/66 From Miami to Montreal millions are still contending with the aftereffects of the (great storm) that may go into history as the blizzard of '66. (The bitter cold, the abundant snow and the piercing wind combined to give us all a humbling lesson on the enormous energy at nature's disposal and the impact it can have upon men's petty plans.) These days scientists can send rockets to the moon, to Mars and to Venus; but for many hours on Sunday airlines were grounded, cities cut off, and the Pennsylvania Railroad could not send trains from Baltimore to Washington. Virginia's Governor had to warn that in his state "no one can be assured of safe travel to any given destination." (Even the most powerful hydrogen bomb ever exploded was but a puny force compared to the sources of the atmospheric maelstrom that produced such disruption all along the Atlantic Seaboard.) At the height of this blizzard 20th-century man was no more able to calm the primitive rage of the elements that were his ancestors who cowered in their caves under similar circumstances many millennia ago. But such helplessness may be nearing its end. There are signs that modern science--which already controls so much of the contemporary environment--may soon be able to do more about the weather than just talk about it. A National Academy of Sciences panel on weather modification recently concluded that rain-seeding experiments using silver iodide and other substances had appreciably increased precipitation "over areas as large as 1,000 square miles [and] over periods ranging from weeks to years." The theoreticians still have a long way to go in understanding the thermodynamics of the atmosphere; but it is becoming increasingly probable that some day men will be able to produce the weather they want. Haha When that time comes, will we still be willing to endure blizzards? Probably not. At that time life may be more predictable, but it will certainly be less interesting. === Page 46 of 220 2/2/66 p4 January 24, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: My accuracy with "PK" work, in conjunction with the Si's, has been roughly 96% accurate. Rarely a miss, but a miss did just occur, and thought you would be interested to know the details of it. When I appeared on the local radio here in Philadelphia, and got the paper write-up...then suddenly everything was cut off...and the "Rain Maker" received no offers, no takers...I consulted with the Si's, and the upshot was that we placed this area in a "PK Bubble" - that is, sealed off the area, so that precipitation in any form would not fall on this area...and if it should, there would not be enough to matter. This worked just fine, beautifully, I might say...matter of fact, if I could have blocked off the snowstorm we had over this weekend, a 100 year record would have been broken here. But...the PK failed to block the snowstorm; it got through..and so, you see, the PK and the Si's do not always hit the bullseye. 96 out of 100 times they do, but I thought you might like to know of this failure. At least, I guess it is a failure. Unless the Si's wanted this precipitation to get the violent storm in this area...for reasons of their own...to cause a disaster area somewhere soon...and this storm was necessary to their plan. We shall see. If suddenly California or a Western area is racked up with a booming, violent storm, creating a real disaster area...then I'll know what the Si's are up to. If it wasn't just a miss.

The proof is my letter, which is in your file, dated August 6, 1965. In about the eighth paragraph, I told you: "Now, for your amusement, and because you've been so good to listen to me for so long... I will let you in on something. I am calling fleets of UFO's here to Philadelphia... from everywhere. Trouble is I do not know what they can do to prove to these people here that I'm for real... but I will think of something. Believe they are here already, because I sent for them this afternoon. With all that power, whatever kind it is that they have... and it seems to be miraculous, judging from what they've accomplished this past year, they should do something startling. Am trying to convey the idea to them of coming right down over the city and hovering. They give me the idea back that we might have some kind of rays like they have, or whatever it is they have... and hurt them or something... so that they are reticent to do this. So I am trying to tell them we haven't any such thing, and it's safe. I want to bring one down right over Market Street and have it hover there for 20 minutes. What else they'll do on their own is anybody's guess." Attached is photostat of actual letter, which you have in your file. They did exactly as I asked them to do... they came down and hovered for hours, instead of half an hour... to prove they are real. But they came down over Wanaque, New Jersey (I sent you newsclips of this just a few weeks ago) because evidently they did not trust the Phila. area. Not only did they come down and prove their reality, absolutely... but they demonstrated the ray I mentioned in my letter to you. The Civil Defense Director of Wanaque, the police, and others, saw the ray, and the police investigated the actual hole the ray burned in the ice. So now, without any doubt whatsoever.... you and the U.S. Government absolutely know that what I have been telling you is true, real, solid.... I am definitely communicating with the Si's and they with me -- and they tell me in advance what is going to happen. The first and second proofs of my being the Si's contact and voice for the people on earth... was the South Pole UFO incident (see correspondence); and their making an appearance in a big way, and hitting everywhere in lightning... after I first wrote you and told you they said they would.

I made a notation in my book that Johnson's popularity was slipping among the Buddhists. Me: "How about the war in Viet Nam? Are you in favor of it?" He: "What war you mean? War between Buddhist's and Catholics? War between Buddhists and GI's? War between North and South Vietnamese" War between Montagnards and South Vietnamese? War between..." but I held up my hand. Me: "Then I will put you down as not being in favor of it, all right?" Suddenly a bicycle containing a concealed satchel-charge of explosives blew up. Glass shattered and bodies went flying in every direction. The Buddhist priest, in a fit of temper over this outrage, quickly took out a can of lighter fluid and set fire to himself. In the glow of the fire from the burning Buddhist I can see the bar-girl out on the street, counting bodies so that she can estimate her money loss for the evening. Picking steel splinters out of my eyes, I walk moodily back to my hotel. Next morning, Sunday, I go out into the countryside, to take the consensus of the Vietnamese farmers in their village. So I stride into a small, muddy village made up of thatched huts...where tiny children are toddling around and small Vietnamese women are hanging out their wash. Me: "Good morning, there, folks. I have come to take a consensus of opinions from you. Who speaks English here?" A man dressed in black walks forward. He: "I speak English. Me Viet Cong, disguised as farmer to fool American dogs. What you want to know?" Me: "How do you like President Johnson?" He: "How you like have bamboo splinters under your fingernails, fella?" Me: "Well...how about asking all these farmers here, because you're the enemy, and you might be prejudiced." I point to the crowd of peasants around us. He: "Ha ha! They my family, my grand-parents, my children. I raised in this village. Is home. They all same think like me. Every Sunday we cook special dinner we call "President Johnson Special." Boiled dog. Today you invited." Me: "Gee, thanks a lot, but some other time. Now for the second question. Will you ask them if they favor the war in Viet Nam?" He turns and speaks to the peasants. They hiss at me viciously, and jab pitchforks at me.

IS ANGERED BECAUSE I COULD GET NO CO-OP ON EAST COAST? Washington - Washington just had one of the biggest blizzards in its history and, although snow had been predicted, no one thought it would be on this scale. One of the reasons for this is the credibility gap where people are suspicious of everything that is announced in the nation's capital. Buchwald I discussed this with a high government official as he was digging his car out of the driveway Monday morning. "Sir, did you know there was going to be a blizzard Saturday night?" "I'm as surprised as anybody," he said. "I heard that bad weather was in the works, but I thought this was just a way of President Johnson making it easier to announce he was going to resume the bombing of North Viet Nam." ********** "Who authorized the blizzard?" "It had to come from the White House. My department certainly knew nothing about it. We weren't even consulted." "Do you think a blizzard was a good thing to have at this time of the year?" "Well, you have to remember the President is the only one who can make this agonizing decision. He has all the facts. While a blizzard may look like the worst thing to give the people, it could, in the long run, be the best thing we could do under the circumstances." (AS PROOF TO GVT.) "There are some people who believe Congress should have decided whether we should have had a blizzard or not." ********** "Congress gave President Johnson a vote of confidence in 1965 and said they would support any decisions he made concerning the weather." "Yes sir, but they thought they were voting for a light snowfall or at the most a white Christmas. They had no idea the President was going to get us into a blizzard." "The President didn't want a blizzard any more than anybody else. For the last three months he has done everything to keep the weather from getting out of hand. (But the elements have been against him (S's) and it is his opinion that, unless we stand firm in the face of heavy snowfall now, we will have a worse blizzard later on.) Every one in this administration is for clear weather, but it has to be clear weather with honor." OR SO ME TH IN G "Isn't one of the dangers of a blizzard that the harder you try to dig out of it, the more chance you have of getting stuck in it?" "Nobody knows the dangers of a blizzard more than the President. He did not arrive at his decision to have one until he consulted with many, many people." ********** "Was Dean Rusk in on it?" "I'm sure of it. He had to notify our Allies what we plan to do." "Have they supported him in the blizzard policy?" "They haven't given snow plows or road-clearing equipment, and there are some of our friends who asked the President to hold off on the blizzard indefinitely and give the elements a chance. But here again the President had to make the final decision." ("Could this lead to larger and larger blizzards?") DEFINITELY, "We certainly hope not. (The dropping of snow at this time should indicate that we mean business and, although we may be up to our necks in snow, this doesn't mean we wouldn't be the first ones to want it all to melt." OR SOME THIN G BUSINESS! ********** ("What happens if the blizzard doesn't work?") (SI PROOF) ("We'll have to cook up some other kind of storm.") (EXACTLY) "It looks like it's going to snow some more," I said. "I'm sure the President would allow no more snow to drop than is absolutely necessary." - THEN LET U.S. GOV'T EMPLOY SI'S PK MAN. WHAT WILL HAPPEN === Page 53 of 220 February 9, 1966 Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Interesting thing happened last Friday night...Si's gave me an important message to wire to you (when they want a thing done, they really push, in a manner of speaking.) I really couldn't afford a wire, but went to Western Union anyhow. Wrote the message to you "Si's say they will make their presence known on Johnson trip to Hawaii" and gave it to the man. That man went back and whispered to another man. They eyed me suspiciously, or something, then whispered some more. Second man sat down and picked up a phone. First man said they'd "have to wait until somebody came back in a few minutes to okay it." This meant only one thing: They were alerted for me, evidently, and had orders to call someone to have me picked up. So I took back my message, and departed. You know, George, might come the day when the Si's would let us know before something really bad happens to us. I'd try to warn you, and be blocked by Western Union. Mailing letters depends on whether I have stamps or not (usually do not) and it takes a day or two. Important events necessitate faster communication. And, based upon the extraordinary (I think) accuracy of my past predictions of "catastrophes ahead" - it would be wise not to block me. So I might send two or three messages where nothing happened immediately. But the fourth might be it. The one that could put you ahead of the event, and be able to handle it. Some of my predictions have taken as long as 5 months to happen. But usually it's a few days, few weeks at the most...when they happen. To add a few predictions: Ky, of South Vietnam, is treacherous, hates Americans, and couldn't be trusted across the street. He'll be disastrous for us. McNamara, Johnson favorite or not...will ruin us, if he hasn't done so already. Johnson himself will become the most hated President in the history of the United States (unless he changes, and Johnson is a man who doesn't change.) I have a little help on these predictions from the Si's. Be interesting to see if I'm right or wrong. My predictions to you have been fairly accurate, so far. Incidentally, I suppose the Si's did zero in on Johnson at Hawaii...re that power blackout for ten minutes. They were doing something, evidently. The blackout in itself is not the end result. Overloaded circuit, sure... when the Si's add their power to any power circuit, it's overloaded and blows up. P K Man (Owens) 08/06/2025 16:26 === Page 54 of 220 Rick Lornie February 9, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Hell hath no fury like that of the Si's scorned. They tell me to tell the U.S. that the Great Power Blackout, the billion-dollar transit strike, and the Blizzard of '66 catastrophes...were nothing to what they are getting set to do now. If they must keep on dealing out blow after blow, and proof after proof, to prove their reality...and make arrangements with the U.S., then they will just continue to do so. Since they are working from another dimension, there is little the U.S. can do about it. At least, through me, P K Man, you know the thing is going to happen, and why. Why the Government does not join forces with them, I cannot imagine. What this next will be, I don't know. === Page 55 of 220 February 10, 1966 THE EDITOR Dear Sir: It says in the paper that the Post Office is now issuing to mail men mustard-spray guns, designed to keep dogs away. Heck, that's stupid! My dog likes mustard! My suggestion to the Post Office is that they issue a double-barreled gun to their mail men...one barrel for mustard, and one barrel for catsup. ********** The papers say that Ronald Ramsey, who lives in California, sent tapes to Hanoi to play to our American boys who are fighting there, for the purpose of persuading our soldiers to lay down their arms. Shucks, Ramsey is doing it the hard way! My suggestion to the U.S. Government is that they fly Mr. Ramsey to Saigon, all expenses paid, assemble all of our troops, and let Mr. Ramsey explain his advice to those silly mislead boys in person! ********** Was greatly surprised to read in the papers that Senator Morse is trying to block Jack Vaughan from becoming Head of the Peace Corps. For Pete's sake, doesn't Senator Morse know that, considering the qualities of some of our Peace Corps personnel...the U. S. Government needs a professional boxer as Head of the Peace Corps. (Only way he can keep Peace). ********** I read in the paper where "bits of Il Duce's brain were lost at U.S. Hospital." There...see what happens when a dictator loses his head? * ********** Those 1500 members of the Women's Strike For Peace, who picketed the White House recently...were taking an awful chance wearing those white cardboard doves. They might have got shot out of season! ********** H. T. Owens 1114 Spruce St. #33 Phila. * And even if they can't find it they should remember the old saying, "Half a brain is better than none." === Page 56 of 220 February 16, 1966 File THE EDITOR Dear Sir: I read with utter fascination a long long article by a reporter, on how Philadelphia has escaped catastrophes. He must have been so busy writing his article that he didn't read his own paper...all of those college kids in this area arrested for using and/or selling dope. Now, ain't that a catastrophe? ********** I've read in the papers how the U.S. Government has sent military forces to Santa Domingo...and to Viet Nam...in order to protect the two political parties of those two countries from hurting each other. So, don't be surprised if, one of these days, Russia sends half a million soldiers, heavily armed, along with ships, bombers, fighter planes, etc., here to the United States - to protect the Democrats from the Republicans! ********** I read in the paper yesterday where Chubby Checker married Miss World (beauty queen) and then was arrested last week for allegedly sneaking off to a motel with another former beauty contest queen (other than his wife, that is.) The article added that he had once been a "chicken plucker" in a market here in our own Philadelphia. From all his activity with those beauty queens...I'd say he was still quite a chicken-plucker, 1st Class. ********** Reading the paper, I am highly indignant over the mean and cruel way they are treating that Candy Mosler at her trial. Can't they see what a poor, weak, helpless little thing she is? She faints every day, has a nervous stomach, blinding headaches, and the nervous shakes. It's a wonder she ever got up the strength to stab her husband 39 times. Must have plumb wore her out, pore little thing! ********** An article in the paper written by Ailleen Snoddy was headed: "30% Of Us Are Overweight." Well, I can't speak for Ailleen - but more than 30% of me is overweight! ********** President Johnson admits he doesn't know how to end the war in Viet Nam. BUt my little boy knows how to end it. Sitting in my lap last night, he explained it to me, patiently. "Daddy," he said, "you keep laughing and pointing out how prediction after prediction that man McNamara has made about Viet Nam was wrong....so why not let that McNamara tell President Johnson that we'll lose the war for sure and that the war will last a hundred years! Then, you see, since he's been wrong all along...we'll win the war there and it'll be over tomorrow!" - Well, that makes as much sense as any other suggestions I've heard! H. T.

It could happen if I could ever get way out somewhere where they'd meet me. 2/14/66 Dear Lorrie - Thank you for your letter, your very sweet birthday card, and the $1.00. We did just as you suggested, and had a party on your $1.00. Thanks, honey. Enclosed is a ring I have made for you. The initials are poorly made, but so are ones carved on a tree. It's a Love Ring for you & Julio (HOO-LEE-O). In case you change boyfriends, send it back & I'll put new initials on it! Major Keyhoe was on TV today (a surprise) telling how the A.F. had fired on UFO's, had lots of pictures of them, and had orders from Wash. to cover up all UFO sightings - hide them from the public. He sneered at sightings by farmers, etc., and stressed again & again that only sightings by Majors, Captains, Colonels, scientists - etc. counted. Anybody else was not a "responsible" source and was only after publicity. Ha ha! He's distorted & twisted that way, but at least he says the AF & US Govt. knows the UFO's are real. He added that the Govt. now is considering changing its policy & telling the US people all about how real the UFO's are. Now, I have two proofs at hand (which I'll send you this week), that the Govt. knows for sure PK Man and his UFO's are quite real - and fear my UFO's. Be sure & read my letters to you, to Rick, and vice versa. Be sure. 08/06/2025 16:26 === Page 58 of 220 Don't worry about C's. You're bright, and you'll get along fine. If you're lucky you'll never need brains (school type.) You'll "first" be a sweet feminine girl, who can cook + sew, and make a cute nest for your man + your children. Now to answer your questions. I do not wish to put UFO information in letters - that is, some of it I wish to keep secret. UFO intelligence (Si's) have been in our bedroom. Martha saw them first (like you did, that UFO in Texas that night) then I saw them. No talk at all. We just watched them, with our eyes bugging out. Not one time, but three different times. Baby tried to talk to them, jabbering away + pointing. And the sound they have - never heard anything like it. The Si's do not relay information to me in "talk" or voices, either inside or outside my head. Another way. Explain it to you sometime. Watch Spanish men, Lorrie. Treachery and double-crossing are second nature to them. But they can be charming. I know them well, honey. Listen - in early 1950's I had a Julio Rodriguez at the private military school, Calif. Military Academy - he was one of my pupils. Also his dad was an officer in Nicaragua, I think. Ask him about this. If so, he'd remember Captain Owens. Congratulations on dropping the sorority. Yes, you can tell Pat anything. You're lucky that way. She is a good pal for you. Honey, send important mail to me Special Delivery! Here, please. === Page 59 of 220 Rick LORNE Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency 2/15/66 Dear George: the medical profession, which was the only reason they let me in. The Si's communicated with me this morning...and urged me to pass this following information on to the U.S. Government. Now, I have known this, but I only tell this sort of thing...when they tell me to. Philadelphia recently had a very nice rain. The Si's gave it ********** The Si's, for some reason, want the U.S. to know...that they have a Black Box. Say they are irked with the U.S. Government (which they are..the Administration) so they slide a card into the Black Box...this is sort of like a printed-circuit in a transistor radio...and what happens is this: The U.S. Government then develops "conditions" which lead to all sorts of unusual and unexpected set-backs, ranging from air-ship-sub collisions, etc., to people catastrophes...like two generals, in different parts of the world, smashing themselves to pieces the same week by parachuting out of planes (last year.) The weather will go against the Government...people will turn against the Government...conditions will go against the Government. This is what the Black Box does, when the card or wafer is inserted in it. If the Si's wish to reverse conditions, they remove that card, and insert another, and then all conditions are "go" (to put it into space language) for the U.S. Government. Everything goes right. The weather turns favorable; the people change, and become happy and back the Govt.; ships, planes, and subs stop having accidents; space work, instead of being blocked and hampered by constant set-backs, is speeded forward. The Si's want the U.S. Government to know that they can do this, for it is a different medium of tool than anything we have on earth. They want you to know that they can influence minds, souls and matter on earth, in a way humans cannot. They want you to know that they have let me "see" how "PK" works...that is, take the "Electro" area from Daytona Beach to Miami...over it, now (didn't used to be when I just started the PK work) is a growing garden of violently colored 'things'...not plants, but long long things that extend into the air from the ground. The area is covered with these really beautiful, colored plants (?) which humans cannot see...but which are there, nevertheless, and which affect the area. The 'things' are constantly growing. For instance, when I was given permission to go to try to save the life of Brenda Sue Pennington in Washington, D.C., because she was dying...and because the Si's told me to...I "hit" Brenda Sue with certain kinds of constructive "PK" (that is my term for the process of the Si's which I cannot explain, but can use) and a tiny rainbow of color formed over her head (she was in bed, with police standing by, nurses, etc.) I hit her with all the power I had, and used my daughter to supplement my power, by holding hands with my daughter. 08/06/2025 16:47 === Page 60 of 220 2/15/66 p2 Intelligence Agency The rainbow-colored light (which humans could not see, but I am lucky in that the Si's let me see it) seemed alive...it moved. My daughter and I left, as soon as the Si's told me it was done and the girl would live (she had been given up by the medical profession, which was the only reason they let me in). As the days went by the Si's let me see the girl in her hospital room...and as the days went by, the tiny small rainbow-light over her head grew in size, until the entire room was filled with beautiful, colored 'things'...and the room pulsated, like a human breathing. That was constructive. The girl is now at home, improving, and alive. The Si's saved her. Electro and Electra, the Calif. coast, are destructive. But the Si's point out that they can only reach humans...prove to humans that they are real...by producing negative conditions, destructive conditions. Just as the only way Moses could convince the Pharaoh that what he was saying was true and real...was by producing negative, destructive conditions. The Si's want you to know they come from another dimension, not outer space. They can produce conditions in our dimension from their dimension, if they wish. Or, they can actually enter our dimension themselves, when they have reason to do so. Before closing, they want you to know they can "melt" the destructive conditions they have set into play in Electro and Electra, and replace with a reverse effect. The weather PK Man === Page 61 of 220 2/15/66 Dear Rick, was good to hear from you. Am returning copy of my letter for your files. Wrong one, but I thank you for going to the trouble of looking. Never mind looking further, I've got it covered. Tell Pat that that time she and her mother and I encountered a tremendous "feeling" in the front parlor of their home in Durham, N.C. - we were in a UFO "force-field" which was created by the extreme closeness of the UFO intelligences which were actually present at the time, although unseen. Rhine's work had drawn their interest...they were near Duke...and my own interests and mind drew them. They've told me. Now, about your pool cue. I went into Brunswick, a few doors from where I work, to get your cue. The expert there said to wait about three weeks, because they have a new cue coming from Japan which is superior to anything they've got in the U.S. It is made of rosewood, and is beautiful, and a terrific shooter. You know, Rick, the best radios are made in Japan...also some of the best cameras Now they are coming out with these pool cues. They are the same price, about $20, as U.S. made, but this expert says they are 100% better in feel, balance, and looks. So, your birthday present will be three weeks late. You'll get a professional pool cue which unscrews and fits into a professional case (one just like you saw in "The Hustler" and a book by Willie Mosconi, one of the all time greats in pool. By the way, Sunday there was a tournament by four of the top pool shooters in the U.S. A Frank McGowan, of Brooklyn...beat the great old-timers he was up against. The old-timers were all about 50-60 years old. This McGowan was in his 30's. They had trick-shot contests, where each one took turns trying to do the same trick shot...and they had straight-pool contests to 100 (not 50). Sunday Electro got the huge Agena rocket they were testing...tore it up at the Cape...and now they are behind the 8-ball in their scheduled target-shot in March. They are "investigating what went wrong." A very very familiar phrase, indeed. Also Sunday Major Keyhoe appeared on a nationally televised program, to my utter surprise, and came out with these gems: (a) The U.S. Air Force has fired upon and attacked UFO's. But orders have now been given for our planes to "force them down to the ground". Ha ha. The AF has clocked the UFO's going 18,000 MPH. (b) Newsmen asked Keyhoe if it seemed "the UFO's were angry with our space efforts, and might be trying to block them." ----------! (c) Keyhoe said the A.F. and U.S. Government knew positively the UFO's are quite real...he'd seen a secret Govt. report on it...and that the A.F. had been under orders to shut up anybody or anything that had seen or heard a UFO, in order to keep it from the general public. He said some top AF men were angry about it...because they had to lie, and they weren't natural liars. But he said the U.S. Govt. was now contemplating telling the public about it...bringing it out into the open. ----------! Keyhoe said the A.F. and CIA had been working on keeping UFO activity secret, === Page 62 of 220 2/15/66 p2 amd away from the general public. The CIA! Looks like I have been writing to the wrong people, Rick. Am having lots of fun with this new thing...sending funnies into the papers... and our kitchen wall is papered with different pages of newspapers that I have got funnies in. Sent you a UFO ring today. And a wrist-band also. Don't wear the wrist-band to school, only around home. These articles were made at the Si's direction, by me for you.

First time I have ever made anything...you know...but so far I have turned out all kinds of things like I'd been doing it for years.

You're pretty shrewd judge of character. Am puzzled. You say "The confirmed clipping of the UFO over Cape Canaveral are on their way." You didn't mean this letter of mine, attached, did you?

This desperate, mean kid...see...was packing a toy pistol and a play police badge! When the leader of the Greatest Country in the World is protected against kids with toy pistols...well, if that "image" doesn't convulse our enemy with hysterical laughter, nothing will! ********** Its said in the paper yesterday that in Birmingham, Alabama, a girl was shot by a Valentine. And in a current movie a man gets shot by a brassiere (with the girl in it, of course.) What I say is - when people start getting shot by Valentines and brassieres, then hadn't we better pass a Valentine Law and a Brassiere Law...requiring purchasers to register them? ********** Now that Luci is getting married, I bet that LBJ follows his usual m.o. (that's modus operandi, or what he always does. He'll demand, as Commander In Chief, to arrange the security details...and to marry the couple himself, (since Ship Captains can marry people, and isn't He in charge of Ship Captains?) And of course...he'll have to be Best Man. ********** The questions that kids can ask! I was telling my wife about the body of the unfortunate girl, found recently in a stream with the head cut off. My little boy spoke up and said, "Daddy, whatever dirty rat did it...why did he keep the head and throw the rest away?" ********** Read in the paper recently that "President Johnson is pledging nearly $1 billion in economic aid...to South Viet Nam." Gee, I knew he was a rich man, but I didn't know he could afford to be that generous. I am grateful that he's paying for it out of his own pocket, because I'm so busy paying taxes now on Lady Bird's Beautification Program...that if the Government also wanted me to pay on a billion a year to Viet Nam...I'd scream! Then the article goes on to say, "Several officials, including one of the President's top military advisers, contend the U.S. should concentrate on winning the war before going on a spending binge .. that could add to the country's present turmoil." --- What are they trying to do?

Y. Herald Tribune WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.--The White House experienced a few anxious hours last week when it was feared that President Johnson may have been exposed to spinal meningitis, a highly contagious and often fatal disease. As it turned out, the fears were groundless. INCIDENT AT SHORE The incident, nevertheless, was withheld from the press until Tuesday, when White House officials confirmed it in response to a reporter's inquiry. The story began last Wednesday while the President was visiting Atlantic City, N. J., to speak before the Association of School Administrators in Convention Hall. Among the Secret Service agents guarding the President was Michael Kelly, of the Philadelphia office. FALLS TO PAVEMENT Suddenly, Kelly fell to the pavement outside the hall. He was rushed to Atlantic City Hospital, where it was suspected he was suffering from spinal meningitis. Almost immediately, the President's personal physician, Vice Adm. George Burkley, who was in Washington, was informed. Recalling the incident Tuesday, White House sources said there was "concern" that the President might conceivably have been infected. OUTBREAK REPORTED Only recently a number of cases of meningitis has been reported in U. S. military camps in Texas and California, some resulting in death. Robert Fleming, deputy White House press secretary, said, "While the President was not close to Kelly, there was concern at any possible infection." At the hospital, Kelly was put in an isolation ward. Medical tests were given him. The following day the tests proved negative. Kelly did not have meningitis. Picking up the story, Fleming said, "Dr. Burkley was advised as soon as it was determined the agent did not have meningitis. "And because the Secret Service and Dr. Burkley kept so close to all the checks that were made on agent Kelly, it was not felt there was any danger to the President, and no treatment was given him." As a result of his mysterious fall, Kelly was reported by hospital authorities to be suffering from a concussion. His condition was listed as serious. But Dr. Lawrence Strenger said that tests showed no contagious illness. Kelly, who is assigned to the Philadelphia office of the Secret Service, was sent to Atlantic City to reinforce the President's bodyguard. # Peacenik Bares Undershirt to LBJ NEW YORK (UPI).--"Mr. President," shouted a man in a tuxedo as President Johnson began to speak. "Mr. President, peace in Vietnam . . . peace in Vietnam." With that, the man stood on a chair and stripped off his tux jacket and stiff white shirt. Emblazoned on his undershirt was the same message he had shouted at the President: "Peace in Vietnam." The outburst briefly interrupted the President's address in the Waldorf Astoria's Grand Ballroom. The man who shouted at Mr. Johnson was identified as James Peck, 51, of New York. Secret Service agents, who had been watching Peck because of two previous arrests for demonstrating, seized him immediately. They carried him, his face bloodied, from the plush ballroom. PECK was charged with disrupting a lawful meeting and resisting arrest. He is an employee of the War Resistors League, which sponsored a peace demonstration outside the hotel while Mr. Johnson spoke. Peck had paid $25 for a ticket to the dinner. Nearly 4000 persons picketed the hotel. Six of them carried the orange, blue and yellow flag of the National Liberation Front, the political arm of the Vietcong. The President entered the hotel from a side street and never saw the demonstrators, nor they him. 2/24/66 08/06/2025 16:53 === Page 68 of 220 2/23/66 Mr. George Clarke Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Re my letter to you of last week, listing the extremely odd things happening to President Johnson on his Atlantic City trip...fog harassing his plane; car trunk coming open; door stuck so he couldn't get out, etc. Now, today, turns out that one of his Secret Service men collapsed and fell, and is in serious condition at the present. The reason for the collapse... unknown...at least, the newspaper says so. You and I know the SS boys judo-train. They can breakfall. So that lets out tripping or accidental falling. They've ruled out meningitis. So...what struck him down? Whatever the cause...it is another, added sign of the nearness of the Si's. You will recall that, on other occasions of Johnson making speeches, strange things have happened. Like last summer when he was talking...and a girl nearby collapsed. Like when he was making an impromptu speech at a White House celebration, and the mike went dead. Like at Honolulu, when the power went dead in his Suite when he was speaking with a group privately (I think it was privately.) Like the power-failure that hit the church when Johnson attended. All....sure signs, to me (for I know the signs by now) of Si activity and nearness. And what happens - the power failures, people collapsing, etc., - is not necessarily what the matter is all about. In these actions the Si's may be sowing seeds that we do not understand....invisible seeds, you might say, that will grow into something strange indeed, in time. It's plain to me...but let's break it down, in case it sounds mixed up to someone else. Let's say the Si's have a "finder" on Johnson, like they have on me...can locate him any time. They follow him to Atlantic City. Now, they can make fog and clouds...so that takes care of the plane trouble. Suppose they "hit" Johnson's limousine with a ray of power, unknown to us...this caused the trunk to fly up and the door to jam. They continued beaming this ray of power over the building where Johnson was speaking...aimed at Johnson and meant to have effect on Johnson..and the SS man was sensitive to the ray and couldn't take it, and collapsed. We know the UFO's are real, don't we. Of course. And we know they have a ray. It was seen at Wanaque. So that much is established. You have only my word that I communicate with the UFO's, and that they are doing something with President Johnson. It is very interesting, George, to consider, isn't it. P K Man Owens === Page 69 of 220 2/23/66 p2 Thought you'd be interested in this. Yesterday I got very very angry in the office where I work...and the lights went crazy...in the office I was in, and the office adjoining...some lights would go on and others would go off...then the others would go on and the first would go out. They sent for an electrician, to fix whatever was wrong. But definitely...it was because I was very angry. This used to happen to me a lot at Duke, when I attended as a student. But yesterday was the most powerful ever. It was never removed; has grown...and no doubt caused the collision of planes, loss of H bomb; crash of giant plane, etc etc. Remember that the PK grows as time goes on. *in Spain P K Man === Page 70 of 220 2/23/66 p3 George Clark Intelligence Agency 4/1/66 Dear George: Would like to point out and remind you that some time ago PK was used to "hit" the US/Spain Military Exercises, as a demonstration to the US Govt. on the effectiveness of PK in the use of military.......... it was never removed; has grown...and no doubt caused the collision of planes, loss of H bomb; crash of giant plane, etc etc. Remember that the PK grows as time goes on. *in Spain P K Man === Page 71 of 220 2/23/66 p4 /66 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: See where a highly-valued space scientist killed himself today in Inglewood, California? So what? First...the Si's are keeping up their campaign of showing that they mean business...by harassing NASA. Since they can control minds, as well as weather...they eliminated this boy as surely as they aimed the gun. Second...the space scientist was lost in Inglewood...where my own two children live. You remember them...you met them...Lornie and Rick. I believe the Si's are saying something with the death of the NASA man in this particular town. But...haven't interpreted it yet. They "tell" a lot of things by doing things of their own...and the action they create tells their story. P K Man All...sure signs, to me (for I know the signs by now) of Si activity and nearness. My own ESP seems to think this NASA boy was murdered...didn't kill himself at all. Of course, the Si's could arrange this, too, because their PK utilizes anything and everything to obtain their objective. Also...shows me the Si's attention is on Inglewood, where my children are. 08/06/2025 16:55 === Page 72 of 220 February 24, 1966 Dear Rick: Am sure glad that you like the ring and wristband. Keep wearing one or the other, or both...for they are not purely ornamental. They have a functional use. We pinned the newspaper clippings all over our kitchen walls...and you'd laugh to see them all over the walls. Evidently they finally found out "H.T. Owens" was the same as "P K Man" or "The Rain Maker" because all 3 papers very suddenly cut off printing my stuff, even though I sent in stuff that would make you howl with laughter. Of course, most of it was making fun of Johnson, Hubert, etc. Anyway, I think the Government, in its investigation of me and my activities, have put an iron curtain around me...as far as newspaper items, etc., are concerned. It's too bad...I was just getting warmed up. And the papers really liked my writing, too. Incidentally, have two men ever, to your knowledge, come to Inglewood and talked to you, Lornie, or the Shannon's...asking questions about me? Just wondered, is all. Good news...am mailing your super pool cue, along with super case, and a dandy book on pool...to you tomorrow evening. You should get it early next week, any day. It's a $30.00 outfit, so please...don't break it or lose it, huh? Why do I get you such a fine outfit? First, because you're my pal and you deserve it...and second, because if you ever serious about learning and mastering anything...only get and use the best tools you can find to do it with. Always. And...what in blazes is a "piquet" shot? Don't you mean..."PK"? My masse' is messy. Need more practice. When you play, always play to win. Winning is a state of mind, mostly. Many many times I have gotten behind on pool scores, midway through the game...and I have talked to myself in my mind...telling myself to cut out silly mistakes, shoot softer, figure out the weakness of my opponent (they all have one, and you can beat them with it.) And many many times I have come from behind and won, that way. Incidentally, to test your stick and make sure it's as super as the man at Brunswick said...I took it down town and beat the top pool (pro) hustler in Philadelphia with it. So its good. Don't worry any more about that clipping, Rick. I've got it covered. The UFO contour you ask about...is a sideways silhouette of the UFO. Not looking down at it, but sideways at it. See? One evening last summer I went out on the balcony outside our apartment and there were just two clouds, hanging low over our apartment house...and inside each cloud...was a UFO. They were plain. Easy to see. Just floating there, inside the clouds. Both identical saucer shapes, close together. I think I forgot to tell you about that. About the secret weapon in Viet Nam that you heard about...re mental imagery... would like to know more about what you are talking about. The Si's are active there, you know. Write me in more detail about that, eh? Love, Dad === Page 73 of 220 2/25/66 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Well, just as my letter of last week predicted...the UFO's are raising hell down on Cape Kennedy. The Tiros shot has had to be postponed because of technical trouble and bad weather...postponed twice. The Moon shot has been postponed four times. I suppose eventually they'll get the birds off...and then the UFO's will shoot them down or render them ineffectual (strike one n). P K Man P.S. What did you think of the Commander of the entire South Vietnamese Air Force being killed? He wasn't shot down...his plane didn't crash...he didn't have heart failure...and he wasn't assassinated by the Viet Cong. HIS OWN PLANE RAN OVER HIM WHEN HE GOT OUT OF IT TO CHECK ON THE BOMBS! How freak can the accidents get? This is the sort of thing President Johnson and top Adm. officials must guard against...such freak accidents...plus getting hit by lightning, etc., or falling down like that SS man...and the main time to guard against it is between now and the end of May. That is, from now through May...is the danger period, according to the Si's. Forewarned is forearmed. This is, of course, as I have pointed out many times, not a threat but the opposite...a helpful warning. The UFO's are communicating...not me...and I'm the middle man passing along the information. Myself personally I'm just plugging along, working peacefully in an office, and content to be with my little family. But the UFO's...they are something else! 08/06/2025 16:55 === Page 74 of 220 Feb. 28, 1966 Dear Rick and Lornie: The Si's have signalled me that at this point the U.S. Govt. will probably take me out of circulation...so that my story of the UFO's, and what the UFO's are doing, will be shut up and kept secret, along with me...just as as they are doing with other various phases of hushing up UFO findings. Zachow told me, you remember, that he happens to know that the U.S. Govt. spends millions each year in suppressing UFO findings and news from the people of the U.S. So...with me coming up with concrete, solid proof of my connection with the UFO's...the Govt. cannot afford to have me rattling around loose, to talk to just anyone about it. So...the Si's warn the Govt. will "secure" me... arresting me, of course, under some false pretext like "threatening" the President with bodily harm, or some such idiotic thing. Well...we'll wait and see if the Si's are right. They usually know about such things. I have warned the President that the UFO's are a threat to him...but not me, not Ted Owens. I'm just a middle man, passing along information from the UFO's to the President, and to the Govt. Now, another thing.. (I can tell you this today, but may have to retype this tomorrow, and leave it out.) Yesterday a 17 year old woman here in Phila. pushed her little baby girl out of an 8th floor window...the baby fell 8 floors. The woman said "voices told her to do it." She is, quite naturally, assumed to be crazy as a loon. But suddenly...I don't think she is. I think she was instructed to push the baby out the window. Now you'll think I am crazy. But listen...the baby was not harmed. Not a hair of its head was hurt. It fell 8 floors, people picked it up...not even bruised. The little girl is perfectly all right. Now...let us suppose the Si's have a method of injecting themselves into people who die, or who are near death...bringing the body back to life, and carrying on through life...as a Si in a human body. I can recall parachutists falling amile or two, their chute not opening...and their miraculously not being killed, or even injured sometimes. I can recall many cases of people who should have been killed...but were not. Brenda Sue was one. Do you follow me? Remember...the Si's are pure intelligence...they take many forms, and they could easily move into a human. Perhaps they have to time it at the human's moment of death or near death. I, myself, should have been killed a number of times, as Mother or Queenie could tell you. A log fell on my head, splitting it open like a melon... a car hit me in the head and threw me 30 feet...I was out for seven hours... and so on. Oh...I think these humans really do die sometimes...but the Si moves in, and the human "comes back to life." It is something to think about. Just remember, when I tell you this, that I have never heard "voices" when I communicate with the Si's (or any other time) I just suddenly "know" what they are telling me. It is instantaneous. === Page 75 of 220 February 28, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: I was puzzled over the weekend...because the Si's had done what they had said they would do...give NASA fits last week over that Tiros Weather Rocket, and the Moon Rocket. That is, they stopped each shot cold, time and time again. But then...they let the Moon Rocket get up and come down. And today, they let the Tiros get up. (Whether it will survive...I don't know...it shouldn't). This is what I believe they are doing. They are trying to show the U.S. Govt. that they **can** harass NASA...can block shots with weather, with technical difficulties, with freak accidents...but they are also showing the U.S. Govt. that they can and will let the birds go, if they want to. This is not to take a thing away from NASA...they do miraculous work...but they wouldn't have a prayer, if the Si's decided to stop them completely. Can you imagine lightning hitting every rocket....continual storms and rain at launching times, so that NASA would never be able to depend on a weather time-table...every rocket being destroyed that did get up, at its second or third stage...and so on. I do not believe they are trying to destroy the NASA space effort...but they do intend to show the U.S. Govt. that they are here, are present, and are influencing the outcome of things considerably. Now, a human...if he had a "PK" power like that...would stop or block **every** shot...everything NASA moved. But that's a human...the Si's are not human...their wisdom is infinitely more than human wisdom...and I believe they are gently trying to nudge the U.S. into line with them, to cooperate and work with them...with the Si's. You could rebut that hell, of course once in a while NASA has difficulties, so why blame it on Si's? But just reflect how **many** difficulties NASA has had at Cape Kennedy in particular (Electro) this last year or two. And how few successes, compared with the destructs and "freak" accidents. Too too many, George...and the very heavy balance of evidence is on the Si side. I am still trying to get them to go down to the Cape and show their saucer craft there...as the clincher, so I can get down to brass tacks with the U.S. Government, and begin to work with the Si's in earnest. === Page 76 of 220 March 1, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's fooled me completely. I was watching the Tiros and Moon Shot birds. The Si's toyed with them for three or four days, blocking each shot with bad weather or "technical difficulties" - then the birds got up, and while I was watching them, waiting for something to happen (as it usually does) the Si's switched targets and went for the Astronauts. I knew something was very wrong when the birds got up...have learned by now, from "observing" the actions of the Si's, that when they abandon a project they have started...it is usually for something bigger and harder hitting. I deeply regret the loss of these two good men. As I have stated before, the Si's are rougher than I am...for bringing down birds is one thing, to prove a point. But I am against destroying people. However, the Si's do not think like humans...and are determined to make their point. Forgetting for a moment the money cost (for instance, each Astronaut costs roughly ten million dollars to train - so about twenty million dollars was lost yesterday)....by now key NASA losses in manpower alone are: (1) Astronaut Freeman, killed by a duck, in a plane crash. (2) Astronaut See, killed in plane crash. (3) Astronaut Basset, killed in plane crash. (4) Dr. Hugh Dryden, Deputy Administrator of NASA, died from cancer. (5) Dr. Lovelace, Director of Space Medicine for NASA, killed in plane crash. (6) Major General Branch, major figure in U.S. Space Military Experimental Program, killed in plane crash. (7) Williams, outstanding young Space Scientist with NASA, a suicide at Inglewood, California. Then consider that Kris Kraft and 13 top Space (NASA) officials, all on the same plane, were almost destroyed by a teenager wielding two guns.... and this gives you an idea of the price NASA has paid...in refusing to listen to me with regard to the UFO intelligences (Si's) and the messages they have given the U.S. Govt. through me. I just pointed out to you in my February 25 letter that all important men in the U.S. Govt. must be on guard from 2/25 through May! It is a danger period, according to the Si's...and I guess the Astronauts were not excluded from the category of "important men in the U.S. Govt." to the Si's. You see, if NASA had believed my letter of the 25th...these two boys wouldn't have been in an airplane yesterday, and wouldn't be dead today! P K Man Owens 08/06/2025 16:55 === Page 77 of 220 3/3/66 Dear Lornie It was good to get a letter from you. Sorry to hear about all the flu. Electra, remember. It all started in Los Angeles...swept across the country...bypassed Philadelphia, completely. Bet you did make a good baby-sitter for the sick kids. You probably earned your RN 5th Class. Be sure and don't kiss Juan for a month, or he might get it. Ha ha. Get a copy of current Look mag...there's a hot article in it on sex for the teenager. Glad you like the love-ring. I bought a ring-shank, enamel paint, brushes, powerhouse glue...and made it. Yes, it was great to hear from Mrs. Pennington. Gives you a pretty good idea of how our Si-power works, eh? Too bad we couldn't use more of that kind, instead of what is going on now. Maybe some day someone will listen, and go into action to help me and the Si's. Somebody who counts. Meanwhile they'll keep on losing scientists, astronauts, politicians, planes, subs, ships, H-bombs...you name it. Incidentally, do you remember when I hit the Spanish-U.S. Military Exercises while we lived in Washington? And all sorts of things happened...copters collided, planes crashed, etc? Well, in the same area this year two huge B-52 bombers collided and they lost several H-bombs! Means the PK is still active in the area. If you are following my copies to George...then you will know that I warned that from 2/25 through May...Key government people were in for it, in danger. Following that, a few days later, a Congressman fell down in the White House and broke his hip. On Feb. 18 I wrote George the Si's asked me to put it on record, officially, that they were now out to get NASA to teach it a lesson...and 10 days later (this Monday) the two Astronauts were killed. They'll nver learn. As you know, the Si's (I thought it was nature at that time) told me in Washington that Johnson would be eliminated by May of this year, unless he cooperated with them (while we were in Washington...I made a bet, remember?) Am curious to see what happens. I got birthday dollars...and we had our party. I got your cigarettes. Martha got your birthday $1.25, and lovely hand-made card, which she cherishes on her dresser. With your money she bought a new apron, new pot-holder, and a toy for Beau. Beau doesn't know any English, except "I want ka-ka (candy)". I love you always, my daughter. Keep punching. And never ever lose faith or belief in your Dad. Somewhere along the way people will tell you I'm nuts...I'm having a "change of life"...all sorts of things. Don't you believe it. Love and kisses.......... Dad 08/06/2025 16:55 === Page 78 of 220 March 4, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: I should have written this yesterday...but do not have a typewriter at home, and could not do it at the office. The Si's yesterday told me they were preparing a series of blows - natural catastrophes - coming up.* And of course the tornados this morning in Alabama and Miss. probably caused a disaster area there. It is rare when I cannot get my message off to you, ahead of the event, but I couldn't do it yesterday. That is why I should have my own typewriter. Now...you have noticed the stock market "storm" lately...dropping, dropping... and I call your attention to my letter to you of January 26: "What they are going to do next is...shrink the monies which are donated to Radio Free Europe, Heart Fund...etc...Picture a large circle, which is now the amount of monies donated by peoples to all sorts of activities, government and otherwise... shrink this large circle down to a small spot...and you get the idea. People will simply stop giving." Well, I believe I misunderstood the Si's...interpreted what they sent me wrongly Evidently they meant they would attack the stock market (they can, because they can influence masses of people to do things.) Therefore, since it is the Si's, to the best of my knowledge...then the U.S. can look forward to a terrible crippling blow in the Stock Market, perhaps a depression without precedent. Also remember I told you the Si's were intending to use the coloreds as a whip against the U.S.? And just last week the Black Muslim leader made the statement that the Muslims could literally destroy the U.S., if they wanted to. Backed by invisible Si cooperation...they certainly could do so, by acting as a base for all coloreds everywhere. Long ago I asked you to please get me some action on this matter, because actually the welfare of the U.S. is at stake...it overrides the Communist threat by a great deal. The Si's control our weather, control our air (skies), and even control our masses of peoples in various ways. It is time to break the great silence, George...and time for the U.S. to accept the Si's as allies and friends. This is bad? With all their power to add to ours? P K Man They have more planned, in the next few days, 2-3 weeks. === Page 79 of 220 3/4/66 p2 d note: I would like to point out that, besides controlling our weather and controlling our skies, and controlling masses of our people...the Si's certainly control the good water that we have. Let me point out that the Wanaque UFO flew over not only the Wanaque Reservoir, but a lake, and I believe another reservoir as well. With its ray it burned a hole in the ice of the Wanaque Reservoir. This actual demonstration, witnessed by people, proved the reality of UFO's conclusively...and also pointed out that no power on earth can stop the UFO's from affecting any or all of the water supply of the U.S. Think about that a while, George. What effect did that ray have on the water of the W. Reservoir? Do you think the UFO was just "playing"? I've got news, it wasn't...they do not have a sense of humor like humans, from what I have managed to glean from my acquaintance with them. There was purpose there...and they wanted it known to our people. At any time, anywhere, they could beam their ray at our drinking water...our good water. What it does, I don't know...although I suspect it carries a way to sensitize people's minds a certain way so that they can be influenced by the Si's. And you know, the tornados that hit Jackson, Mississippi today...isn't that the area where the Si's took Hurricane Betsy, to hit NASA there? Once an area is hit with Si PK...I believe it is peculiarly susceptible from that point onward to more hits of the like. For instance, the B-52 crash over the Spanish Coast...losing the H-bomb (had you thought that perhaps the Si's got it? They most certainly brought about the accident...just as they worked with PK in that area during the American-Spanish Military Exercises there.) The U.S. is very very lucky that the Si's want to be their friend...if and when the U.S. ever accepts them. What would it be like to have them as an ever-increasing powerful enemy? What the Si's could do, if they wished...makes Russia and China about as dangerous as my 3-year old baby. === Page 80 of 220 March 10, 1966 Copy - Rick Lornie 3/10/66 p 1 President Johnson Dear Mr. President: I have some very good news...from the UFO intelligences...to P K Man...to you. The Si's have decided to end the entire drought on the East Coast. They have told me to communicate this to the U.S. Government. In the days, weeks and months to come there will be rain rain rain...not just a little, not just "above average" - but phenomenal rain. The Si's will fill the rivers, streams, etc., on the East and Northeast Coast with rainwater to overflowing. There will be no doubt whatsoever that this freakish rainfall is unnatural. They also told me to tell you that they want this on record...so that when it occurs the people will not consider it just an "accident of Nature." Their plan was for me to obtain money enough to have independence, so that I would not have to do ordinary work for a living...since now they can only communicate with me through "cracks and crevices" in time, instead of through an "open door" in time, as would be the case if I were free to work with them constantly. This money mentioned above was to be made by me as "The Rainmaker" and by me breaking the drought on the East Coast for the money. However, my fellow humans would not listen...would not accept. This has certainly happened, on a giant So the Si's will make the stupid humans a present of the rain. But they warn...and mark this well...after the drought has been completely alleviated, and the humans on the East Coast are smug and happy with their supply of water...then if the U.S. Govt. continues to ignore P K Man and refuses to help him, and cooperate with the Si's...then the Si's will strike the U.S. with something far far worse than drought, as punishment. And they do not communicate idle words. So, I am very happy that the East Coast will soon be inundated with rain and water. Our friends, the Si's, will now demonstrate their gentle, good side...and it is their predominant side, as a rule. You, and the U.S. Government, and the people of the U.S., can thank God the Si's are trying to help us, and are on our side. Would be sad if they gave up on us, and took their powers elsewhere to some other, more friendly and cooperative, country to fulfill their pattern of action they are determined upon. P K Man (Owens) Owens Please see my letter of January 1, 1966, and read entire letter. 08/06/2025 16:55 === Page 81 of 220 3/10/66 P2 March 9, 1966 Dear Mr. President: This is the next important letter of warning to the U.S. Govt. from the UFO intelligences (Si's)..........following their last letter of warning, dated August 11, 1965, written by me to you from their communication. They wish to bring things up to date first. Since their last warning there have been an unprecedented number of airplane and ship accidents..........not at all accidental..........caused by UFO methods. They call it "Ship-Sub-Plane PK", "Storm PK", etc. Although catastrophes have been caused by the UFO's all over the world, to fit their pattern of planning..........we are concerned here with only those catastrophes affecting the U.S., of which, as I said, there have been an unprecedented number and in an ever-increasing cyclical rhythm..........if you have noticed. Unless action is taken by the U.S. Government to cooperate with the Si's..........and form a friendly alliance with them..........matters will get much worse in all departments..........Nature, political, financial, health, etc. As they stated before, in my previous letters, it is as in the days of Moses. Speaking, that is, of their catastrophe-effects. In their last letter of warning to you and the U.S. Govt. they warned that catastrophes would increase in number and scope. This has certainly happened, on a giant scale..........although no attention has been paid, that I know of, to their important warnings by the U.S. Govt. As you can see, from the list that follows, many of these catastrophes have been the worst experienced here in the U.S. in 100 years..........and some of them the worst ever experienced in the entire history of the U.S. - thus bearing out my message to you from the Si's in the last letter of warning that this would be so. Interesting is the fact that the Si's warned in my letter of February 12, 1965, that the Russ would form small teams to smuggle atom bombs into our U.S. cities for a Trojan Horse attack from within the U.S. This was confirmed by articles in the newspapers just yesterday, quoting J. Edgar Hoover of the FBI warning of the Russ planning to do just that, i.e., bring in small atom bombs. Also in my past correspondence the Si's warned that they would attack our Stock Market and cause a "storm" therein, to show how they could affect our financial structure, if they wished to do so. These past two weeks you have seen it happen. And unless we make friends with the Si's they might just tear down the structure. Please see my letter of January 31, 1966, and read entire letter. === Page 82 of 220 3/10/66 P 3 In this letter is a paragraph: "They (the Si's) are curious to know..........must they do something worse than put the entire U.S. in the deep freeze? Or it will the U.S. make friends with them?" They had their answer..........the U.S. did not make friends. P K Man was not contacted. so they did many things worse! It would take too long to list all of the great catastrophis which have struck the U.S. since the Si's last warning to you..........so let us just sum up the past two months: Jan. 31: (Following are newspaper headlines which tell the story) "Worst Storm of Century Hits South..........breaking records that date back to 19th Century." "A severe combination of snow, wind, and icy cold hit most of the Nation, tying up highway, rail, and air traffic..........Washington was virtually paralyzed." "Northeast Lashed As Another Storm Blows Up In Plains." Feb. 1: "The fury of one of the worst winter storms in years moved into the North Atlantic last night, leaving the Eastern Seaboard and the South battered." "..........34 Degrees Below Zero At Russellville, Alabama." Feb. 1: "New Storm Hits The South and Midwest" - "A new storm today rolled across the Midwest and South, and moved for the snow-packed Mid Atlantic States.

Feb. 1: "30 Foot Drifts Bury Cities In Upper New York" - "Whole counties of Upper New York State lay buried Tuesday, under drifts up to 30 feet deep..........after one of the worst snow storms on record. Winds sometimes approached hurricane velocity." Feb. 2: (Catastrophe in Viet Nam) The First Cavalary was riddled with .50 caliber machine gun fire..........from their own side. Captain Fox there said he had never seen anything to compare with this accident. Sgt. Standfield there said hehad seen no parallel to it in three wars. Feb. 3: "6 men were killed in a C-47 crash in the Navy Operation Deep Freeze in the Antarctic." "It was the worst crash of the Navy's 11-year Operation Deep Freeze in the Antarctic."

Feb. 11: "Tornados Wrack Texas" - "A massive storm system that spawned tornados..........dissipated in the Gulf of Mexico." (Almost skipped this one..........President Johnson declared American Samoa === Page 83 of 220 3/10/66 p4 3 a major disaster area, because of a hurricane which just recently struck it. Feb. 12: Lightning struck a plane near the airport at Rome. This happened once to a plane Mrs. Johnson was on, as I recall. And it was recently discovered that tremendous air turbulence blew the plane apart near Tokyo recently...as the same thing happened to a plane over Florida last year. Of course, Florida is the "Electro" area...a supercharged PK area. The lightning and the force applied for the air turbulence are of course Si phenomena. (This above is not a catastrophe; but wanted to bring it in as a point of interest.) Feb. 11: Meningitis struck at San Antonio, Texas; Ft. Gordon, Georgia; Lackland AFB, Texas - and other U.S. locations. Feb. 20: "Cold Sweeps 17 State Area" (Broke records everywhere in these areas.)

Now...Mr. President..the Si's want you and the Government to know absolutely that they created all this damage and harassment to further prove what I have been saying...that I am their "reporter" (as a newspaper hires a reporter to carry the news to the readers) to the U.S. Govt., and that they can and will do what they say they can and will. To summarize the above 2-month list: THE ENTIRE U.S. WAS MADE A DISASTER AREA. EAST COAST - Worst blizzard in 100 years. WEST COAST - Struck with Flu and Meningitis epidemics. SOUTH - Worst cold freeze in 100 years. Killer tornados. 08/06/2025 16:55 === Page 84 of 220 3/10/66 P5 NORTHWEST - Worst blizzard in the entire history of the Weather Bureau. MIDWEST - Worst cold in 100 years. Plus blizzard. HOUSTON, TEXAS - Attacked by tornados. MISSISSIPPI - Attacked by tornados. ALABAMA - Attacked by tornados. NORTH CAROLINA - Attacked by tornados. GEORGIA - Attacked by tornados. CALIFORNIA - Killer meningitis. TEXAS - Killer meningitis. NEW JERSEY - Killer meningitis. ALABAMA - Killer meningitis. All this, in only two month's time! It does not include the Great New York Blackout...or the terrible, paralyzing New York Transit Strike...or the many crashes of huge airplanes...or the loss, one way or another, of top key government personnel...and so on. NOTE: The Si's are hereby notifying the U.S. Government that, just as they predicted in their last warning...the catastrophes that have just occurred, record-breaking though they may be, are only a sample of what lies ahead for the U.S. Government...unless the U.S. Government makes friends with them, and accepts them as an ally. Their conditions for this have been spelled out, previously, several times. The Si's warn...brace yourself...because there will be an unexpected twist in Viet Nam...and our forces will be lucky if they even manage to escape from there with their lives...regardless of all our military might. (But the Si's can extricate us from that mess, and only they can, if we allow them.) The Si's state that only they can stop U.S. catastrophes, and help the U.S. out of all the troubles that it is in. They also think my Government is crazy for not even giving the Si-power a try-out in the U.S.'s behalf. We can spend millions beautifying highways...give millions to foreign countries...but will not trouble to make friends with the Si's...who are the only ones who can help us. President Johnson...once more I respectfully ask that you invite me to your Texas ranch for a weekend and discuss this. It is the last time I will...can...ask. To sum up...in my first "Letter To The American People" I predicted great catastrophes. They came. In my second letter of warning to you, Mr. President, I predicted more and bigger catastrophes. They came. In this, my third letter of warning from the Si's...I am predicting even bigger, even more terrible catastrophes ahead for the U.S. Government. THERE IS NO TIME TO LOSE. Send for P K Man, UFO representative, immediately, 08/06/2025 16:55 === Page 85 of 220 3/10/66 P6 and arrange to join forces with the Si's. The Si's predict that the day will come when the U.S. Government, when in trouble, will come to P K Man to send a message to the Si's to get them out of trouble...just as you would go to the Western Union to send a wire. If the U.S. Government takes good care of me, that is. If anything happens to me, the U.S. Government will never again have this opportunity in this lifetime. In closing, the Si's want you to know that this message, this letter, comes straight from them...through me...and they are the same UFO intelligences (saucer intelligences) seen over the Wanaque Reservoir not long ago. Also they want to repeat...the catastrophes suffered by the U.S. these past months have been produced by the Si's to impress the U.S. Govt. with their powers...to reinforce the message read by Jack McKinney over Jack's "Night Talk" Radio Show last summer here in Philadelphia. P K Man (Owens) Owens 1114 Spruce, #33 Philadelphia, Pa. === Page 86 of 220 March 21, 1966 Rick Lornie Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: When the two Astronauts were being flown back to the U.S. via Honolulu, and their airplane malfunctioned...the SI's were merely showing NASA their entire control over the Astronauts. They point out that they could have dropped the plane like a rock into the water...or exploded it into a ball of flame...if they had so wished. Also they point out that it would be very very wise of NASA to keep highly-trained, valuable Astronauts out of airplanes entirely, since "PK" has been issued at ships-subs-planes, and is now very highly developed in the skies and in the water. Also they wonder why the U.S. Government does not bring out to the people "the saucer Intelligences (SI) story...that it was not sabotage that injured the Gemini 8 flight, nor was it the fault of the Astronauts, nor was it the fault of NASA. It was done by UFO intelligences, in their campaign to impress the U.S. Govt. with their powers...which lie far outside the scope of human sciences. The SI's again ask...what do they have to do to us, to prove their reality...and to join the U.S. as friendly allies? It might be asked, if what they have done thus far can be regarded as "friendly" then we have no need of enemies...but this would be a grave error, a terrible mistake in judgement. Because the saucer intelligences have been gentle, for them. They can at any given time increase the scope of catastrophes, if they wish. So far the catastrophes have been relatively small. They think what they have done, to prove their reality through me, their interpreter, and with the objective of joining the U.S. in order to turn their constructive and creative powers onto the world in general...is worth the small price the U.S. has so far paid. But unless they get some reaction...some results...from their labors, soon...then the U.S. must really sweat some larger catastrophes now beyond our comprehension. They have always given fair warning, and a friendly offer with which to avoid catastrophes. The U.S. Govt. so far has never reacted to them...and the U.S. Govt. has suffered grievously. It need not be so. P K Man Love Dad 08/06/2025 17:05 === Page 87 of 220 Sunday 3/27/66 Dear Rick -- Am glad the pool cue pleases you. Make it your friend for a life-time. Take care of it, honey. It's an ace. Don't loan it to any person, ever. If you do, you'll be sorry. How did you like the way PK took care of Gemini 8 & Agena? NASA is still trying to figure out what hit them. Now the Govt. has angered the Si's -- which have appeared recently to prove their reality -- by calling the Si's "marsh gas." So the Si's are going to teach the Air Force a lesson -- they are "hitting" the USAF here on out, with all PK phenomena. If the Govt. continues to ignore me -- the Si's are going to PK all U.S. vehicles -- autos, trucks, busses, etc. It will not be safe for anyone to be in a vehicle. Don't worry about your package (Bean is in my lap now, licking my arm) -- the thought is there, honey. People can't prove love with presents, anyway. Bean is big now. Talks a little. Martha is fine -- but she waited downstairs at the mail box day after day for weeks, expecting your package. She's like a child, you know, and her feelings were hurt when it didn't come. I'm trying every way I know to get the Church of Sata started -- and to get an isolated house, so the UFO's can come to me in their craft -- but nothing has worked out so far. Remember my bet with your friend in Wash. -- that Pres. J. wouldn't live past May, '66? His only chance is to make friends with the Si's. Love, Dad. === Page 88 of 220 Copy - Rick & Leonie Monday, April 4, 1966 George Clark, CIA, Washington, D. C. Dear George: Yesterday I was in communication with the 81's...and they told me that they were going to make a demonstration of their powers before the AF meets with Congress with its info on UFO's...in order to dramatize the meeting. They told me they would do something at Cape Kennedy, or at Washington (the White House)...and today the tornados struck Cape Kennedy! I could have again warned the U.S. Govt. last night of this, but have no one to report to, and no way to do it. Oh, yes...when they told me yesterday of their plan to hit the Cape, or the White House...I asked them to show one of their craft in the area, as a sort of signature. But they didn't do that. Not long ago I sent you a letter with regard to General Ky, of Viet Nam. At the time he was being painted as a mixture of Batman and George Washington, by the U.S. Govt. But I told you what he was really like. And if you will check my letter, you will see that I was correct. The 81's yesterday told me something else...they do not want me to try to meet them in Michigan, or anywhere in the U.S. They want the original plan...U.S. Govt. gives me the money, I go to England...they specify England...and want me to rent an isolated castle there, etc. You know what that plan is. Now, to business. You will remember that I warned weeks ago that U.S. catastrophes would increase (unless the Govt. enlisted the help of the 81's) It has not, and the catastrophes have. Let's just briefly scan the catastrophes that have struck the U.S. Govt. in just the past ten days (10): (1) Today's tornados, chopping up Florida for three hours and bullseying on Cape Kennedy. (2) The railroad strike - "biting into the Nation's economy" as the newspapers put it. This effected hundreds of thousands of workers and jobs, and cost approximately fifty to one hundred million dollars...and created chaos. (3) Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Monday, and Tuesday - six days, count them, six - arrangements were made at Cape Kennedy for NASA to get a rocket off the ground...any rocket. But they could not. And these birds were highly publicized, adding insult to injury when they failed to get up. A true catastrophe for NASA, prestige-wise. (4) The "lost" H-bomb off the coast of Spain was dropped accidentally not once but many times, and is now possibly gone for good, until it goes off some day, or Russia steals it. A catastrophe. (5) The people of South Viet Nam, our allies, turned against the U.S. Govt. this week - and now American personnel are not safe among the people they are fighting and dying for. This rebellion of our allies against us, at this time, is a terrible catastrophe. (6) The blowing up of the hotel in Saigon which housed our military men was most certainly a catastrophe. (7) Devastating forest fires have struck five States in the South...most certainly a catastrophe. (8) And Saturday a hurricane (Typhoon Shirley) bullseyed in on the U.S. Nuclear Submarine Base in Australia, hitting it with damaging winds. All this action...in the past ten days alone, George. Catastrophes, ever increasing in number and in scope. The 81's are unhappy because I must work at 2% of my capacity, instead of working with them and for them; and they are unhappy because the U.S. Government has not sent for me to add my material to the report of the AF when it meets Congress, this week - since I am in communication with the 81's, and the AF is not - what can the AF poss 08/06/2025 17:05 === Page 89 of 220 4-4-66 P2 IN CONCLUSION: I must add this note. Most of you I have been writing to for about two years. And my estimate of you, both high and low people, is that you are either damn fools, or very very dumb scientists...or both. Now that's not nice, to say that. But I think it is accurate, and I am fully qualified to say it. During these past two years I have accomplished impossible things... made absolutely impossible predictions come true...and proved conclusively my connection with UFO's and my two-way communication system with them. Now you cannot possibly think I am just a "contactee" and some kind of nut...because you have more than enough material in your files to prove this is not so. I could cite roughly 100 cases right now...major happenings...that I have predicted in advance, and in most instances with details of what, when, and how. For the Government not to take advantage of this obviously unusual and tremendous ability, therefore, is damn foolishness. In this case, criminal foolishness, for the Si's have been trying to work with our Govt. For the scientists not to take advantage of this, is completely unbelievable...for what I have done, with the Si's, staggers the imagination...and powers and principles have been employed not even known to mankind, except myself. Therefore, I say that the scientists who may have looked at my correspondence, and done nothing, just have to be stupid. Not long ago I gave the Govt. two days warning...before the Reds struck at our warships, and before the Reds put more and better planes into the air. It was a double-prediction that came true within days. Think of the tremendous value I should have to my Govt., who has had two years to think about it and evaluate my work. Yet we remain poor, shabby, live in dangerous surroundings, my family has had to split up, etc etc. Frankly, folks, you don't deserve the brilliant intelligence I've been giving you this long time. Owen 08/06/2025 17:05 === Page 90 of 220 Wednesday April 13, 1966 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: Be warned...all ships, planes and subs in the Atlantic will be in deadly danger in the weeks and months ahead...until the East Coast drought is ended. The high waves and wind that just damaged a ship and killed two people were part of it. The Si's are doing something with the weather, using the Atlantic ocean to supply certain things they need to end our East Coast drought. They are just now beginning to get the elements arranged to end our drought...but it is going to be deadly dangerous to all forms of life and locomotion in the Atlantic, for a while. P K Man (Owens) === Page 91 of 220 Copy - Rick / Levine Wednesday April 20, 1966 Mr. Dunn, Chief Hurricane Center Miami, Florida Dear Mr. Dunn: I regret that you have not seen fit to take me up on my unique proposition - of guarding Florida against hurricane activity for the coming season. I can absolutely guarantee plenty of hurricane action in that area this coming season...just as I warned Cape Kennedy that they would have much bad luck with their shots this winter. And they have. Therefore, speaking for my UFO friends and their "PK" power...en garde. Owens P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St. Philadelphia, Pa. P.S. The Si's want it definitely understood... in the event of my death, accidental or otherwise, they (UFO intelligences) will see to the total destruction of the United States, in retaliation. For, as their only human interpreter - I am the key to their plans for bringing peace and order to the world. === Page 92 of 220 Copy - Lonnie Rick Kids - you have copy of last week's letter. Tuesday April 26, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: See attached clip, then read this following quote from the letter I just sent you last Tuesday, April 19: "Something momentous is in the wind...with the Si's.; So big that they are actually going to attempt to bring one of their craft down into Philadelphia to contact me! One of the big ones, that is. For some time I have been trying to get them to do just that...but not until today did they signal that they were going to come into Philadelphia... into Center City...to try a contact with me. That is how important it is to them to make a contact physically with their human contact. I understand from "thinking with them" that ordinarily they hate to go into a city...down around buildings, etc. But...frustrated over the U.S. Government's refusal to help me meet them in the Michigan woods, or in an isolated European castle...then they will make an effort to find me, here. They know where I am at all times...but reaching me with one of their large craft...that's something else. So...when you read about the UFO seen in Philadelphia, in the days or weeks ahead...you will know who it is linking up with." That's what I wrote you, George...exactly one week ago. Now read clipping. P K Man (Owens) Owens P.S. If you will check the picture of this UFO, in this clipping, taken by the 14 year old boy...you will readily see that this UFO, and the UFO photographed in Australia and pictured in the Life Magazine article on UFO's several weeks ago...are exactly the same. === Page 93 of 220 Flashes Over East 4/26/66 # Thousands Sight 'Fireball' By ROBERT J. HAYES Of The Inquirer Staff A bright ball of fire trailing a long fiery tail startled thousands in the Delaware Valley and most of the Mid-Atlantic Coast as it shot across the sky near sun-down Monday. The object, reported seen in Rochester, N. Y., Boston, in areas of Ohio and the Carolinas, was described soon after it was sighted by astronomers and Federal Aviation Agency authorities as a meteor. Dr. I. M. Levitt, director of the Franklin Institute's Fels Planetarium, said the fireball was seen by a member of his staff, Edward Bailey, of Bala Cynwyd. "From his description," Dr. Levitt said, "it was most likely a meteor, but there are too many unknowns. "The object," he said, "was very unusual for two reasons. For one, it was as bright as a full moon. It was also very slow. You can usually count on seeing meteors only for about 15 seconds." The object, seen about 8:10 P. M., caused a general swamping of area police switchboards. Philadelphia police headquarters alone reported more than 500 calls--many from policemen. Municipal telephones buzzed to the tune of about 1000 calls. Phone calls swamped police boards in Delaware, Montgomery, Chester and Bucks counties, and in North and South New Jersey. About an hour after the meteor was seen here, Dr. Levitt said he received a report the object had been sighted over Boston. He said observers in New England had reported it was headed for a crash-down in Canada. Whatever it was, Dr. Levitt said, it was big. Its chances of coming down in one piece, he said, depended on its composition. "If it's iron, it could make it down in one piece," he said. "If it's a stone and iron mixture--'friable'--it will probably break up." Apparently the object's destination depended largely upon where you were sitting when you saw it. A private pilot landed at the Bridgeport, N. J., airport and reported seeing "a large, brilliantly green spherical object about 5000 feet in the air going at about 600 miles an hour. "It was headed due west, and extinguished itself in the vicinity of the General Electric plant in Chester." In Washington, reports were that the object landed in the Continued on Page 3, Column 5 === Page 94 of 220 HEAD AT PORTHOLE In Asbury Park, N.J., someone with a wilder explanation told the city's newspaper, "I saw a head peering out a porthole." Near Atlantic City, an engineer at the National Aviation Facilities Experimental Corp., at Pomona, told State Police the object was a meteor that exploded on entering the earth's atmosphere. Descriptions of the object ranged from "huge Roman Candle" to "starburst," "fireworks," and "flying saucers." Its color varied in observers' eyes from dazzling white to blue green or red. All agreed on one thing--the object was traveling on a descending course from south to north. 'LANDING' REPORTED Police from the Carolinas to Toronto checked reports of downed aircraft or that the object landed in their areas. "Everyone thought it came down near them," a Coast Guard official said. In Bucks county, a woman called police to say the fireball crashed down on the Levittown parkway. In Scranton, a man was talking on the phone with another man in Binghamton, N. Y. They saw the object at the same time. Meteo AP Wirephoto This photo of long-tailed meteor that streaked across northeast U. S. was taken by 14-year-old Utica, N. Y., youth, Dana DeGeorge, as he stood in his back yard with a friend. 4/26/66 Huge Fireball Sighted Flashing Over East By Startled Thousands Continued from First Page Maryland countryside about 10 miles north of the Capitol. A Ridley Park man said he spotted the thing when his collie, Jamie, began barking at the sky. The man, John W. Brown, of 237 Stoney Hill rd., said the thing, which he spotted from his backyard, "was well over 10,000 or 12,000 feet high. It was directly overhead and going on a bullet trajectory and died out about 15 degrees above the horizon." VAPOR TRAIL LEFT An official of Yale University Observatory in Connecticut said the object might have been a Bolide -- a type of meteor which enters the atmosphere at slower speeds and seems to travel at a level altitude. The object's long tail left a vapor trail similar to that left by jet planes at high altitudes. This brought fears it was a plane burning and about to crash. Flying saucer fears also were 08/06/2025 17:13 === Page 95 of 220 Wednesday May 4 1966 Dear Lornie and Rick I hope you have been well, and things at school are going fine. Just sent you some snapshots...hope you like them. Please convey my deep regrets to Pat, for the loss of Mary. I liked Mary, always did. She was a loss to the family, I know. And her children will miss her very much. Martha hasn't been touched by the virus, but baby and I have really been clobbered. There's a whopping epidemic of it right now in Philadelphia...and it has all started just since the "fireball" appeared over Philadelphia several weeks ago (I sent you a clipping.) I have a vague theory...that perhaps the nearness of a large Si craft might cause humans within their radius to be affected by what humans call "flu" or "virus." Clyde Beatty Circus is coming to town this week...and we are going to see the old gang that we worked with last year. Ain't that a laugh? Stuck here in Philly a whole year? We are going to go to the circus Sunday, spend the whole day, and take pictures. I'll send you some. We get no mail. Spelled with a capitol NO. Can't figure it out. Have literally hundreds of leads and contacts out...yet our mailbox remains empty, week by week. Had a dream about you kids...dreamed I came home from work, went into the kitchen, and there you kids sat with the baby, just looking at me silently. Somehow I didn't feel that you had been gone, or anything was different...I kissed Martha hello and asked what was for supper...and she said, "Ted, look, Lornie and Rick are here." Got to ring off for now. Get back to work Love and kisses.......... Dad Pal 08/06/2025 17:14 === Page 96 of 220 Thursday May 12, 1966 Dear Rick: It was good to at last hear from you. I tried to put your good luck card in my pocket, but Martha grabbed it first...to carry it for a while, then she will let me carry it for a while. We are sharing it. Don't worry about your PK work. Could be the magic left you, when we split up. Remember, it's the Si's, not us, doing it. While they are working with me, they might not be working with you. Probably are not, as a matter of fact. I have been working with them on ending the U.S. drought...especially the East Coast...and it is working like a charm. Kind of hard on the fruit crops, though. To get all the rain, you see, there had to be cold air mixing with warm air. Cold records have been broken all over the country...way back past 100 years. Tell you what, my boy...smart thing to do right now is this...forget making weather, shooting pool, etc., and concentrate hard on racking up what good grades you can in the short time left. Then when school is out, shoot pool and things like that. Don't worry about girls. You are an unusually handsome boy...very good looking...loaded with personality. Of course you are kind of stupid and you have big feet, like your daddy, but that doesn't matter. You'll find, as time goes on, you'll have to beat the girls off with a baseball bat. When it happens, remember I told you so. Beau can't say much...just a word here and there. He put his first little sentence together this week. He's so cute and lovable, it doesn't seem possible. But since you kids left, he has stopped eating. I mean it. He's so skinny, and underweight. We have him under medical supervision now. Martha is fine. Wonderful girl. We just celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary. We have a canary in a cage now; two turtles; and a goldfish. The Si's have promised to come to me. I can't wait for it to happen. They've never failed yet in their communications, although at times it didn't seem it could possibly happen. (Am talking of their big flying saucer craft, now...not the form they took in our apartment.) Have to go now. Remember, Big Bogarde' and Little Bogarde' and Martha love you. Love - Pappy 08/06/2025 17:14 === Page 97 of 220 Lornie Rick P.S. Lornie...get Pat to tell you about the time when you were about 2...we left you in the front of the apartment for a few minutes...when we got back you had somehow gotten through our double-locked front door and down a flight of steps. AND THE DOOR WAS STILL LOCKED! Monday, May 16, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Wonder what on earth ever happened to that Explorer satellite they were going to shoot up at the Cape last Saturday? It was widely advertised...then from Saturday on...no news, nothing. In this shoot going up at the Cape tomorrow..Gemini 9...I wonder how the Si's will treat the astronauts...remembering that they, the Si's, are putting ever-increasing pressure on the U.S. Govt. and NASA. The last two astronauts just barely squeaked through. Reason for this letter: Want to point out that I predicted accurately and correctly two major events of recent note...the drop in auto sales, and the connected battering of the stock market. In my letter to President Johnson of March 9, 1966: "In my past correspondence the Si's warned that they would attack our Stock Market and cause a "storm" therein, to show how they could affect our financial structure if they wished to do so...unless we make friends with the Si's they might just tear down the structure." In my letter of March 4 to yourself: "...they meant they (Si's) would attack the Stock Market...therefore...the U.S. can look forward to a terrible crippling blow in the Stock Market..." In my letter to my two kids in Inglewood, Calif., March 31: "They (Si's) are going to hit all vehicles in the U.S. with PK (Note: I thought the Si's meant they would make vehicles crash and collide when they communicated that to me; instead, they used Nader, radio, and TV, to attack people's faith and confidence in autos.) and they are going to hit the U.S. economy with PK." That's being very specific, George. P K Man (Owens) === Page 98 of 220 5-16-66 p2 P.S. I stopped, some time ago, writing before each bird shoot at Cape Kennedy..........because as I explained - the UFO intelligences plan to attack each and every rocket, missile, etc., going up, as well as ground controls...with 1,001 means at their disposal. As I told you, long ago, if a bird gets up, and completes its job satisfactorily, then gets down again...I would be utterly surprised and astonished. Some of the things the Si's use: Power failure. Fire. Lightning strikes. People error, in the ship, or on the ground. Poltergeist-like activity. Communications disruption. Freak accidents. "PK Force" which forces the missile out of line with its intended direction, or track. Electric failure. "PK Gumming Up" - I call it this, because there are no words to exactly describe it. They issue forth some power, or substance, which acts like glue on the outside of the spaceship, and fouls up external controls. But it is not like glue in that glue is sticky. "Explosive PK" - a form of "PK" which waits for any chance to cause an explosion of any sort...doesn't need a spark. Instrument Failure. Gives false readings and settings. And many many other tools, they have. Then, if they want to do a quick, thorough job...they use the "line of force" I've described previously. So, for Gemini 9, I expect things to go just like they have gone this past year at the Cape. Accidents, technical difficulties, freak weatherXXX....and when the astronauts get down, I will be greatly relieved...because I know what extra dangers they have to cope with, since they do not have the Si's with them, but against them. I would look forward to the day when the U.S. Government puts these UFO intelligences on the side of the astronauts...instead of dangling the astronauts underneath the noses of the UFO's. Believe me, they are not equipped to cope with UFO's...and that is what is happening. You (U.S. Govt.) can train them to handle anything at all, except the "X" factor. Which in this case is the UFO's. As I have said before, "Hell hath no fury like that of the Si's scorned." And the U.S. Govt. has been scorning them thus far. This Gemini 9 shoot is going up just after the Si's were labelled "marsh gas" and a TV program was put forth nation-wide ridiculing them. 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 99 of 220 Lonie & Rick Monday May 16, 1966 Mr. Mitarnowski State Police Shade Gap, Pennsylvania Dear Sir: I am the gentleman who called you last Saturday, with regard to using ESP, or in this case...clairvoyance...as a tool to catch the criminal who kidnapped the girl at Shade Gap. However, please hear me out. Here is a complete plan, and I believe an excellent one...with which to catch this man. Spread the word over a wide area there that a famous clairvoyant (something like a witch, they'd better understand) is coming to Shade Gap this next Saturday and Sunday...to use his powers to describe the kidnapper in better detail, and tell the police a great deal more than is known. (I work like Peter Herkos, and you can get this around.) The enclosed sample newspaper story can be used...Wednesday, if possible. Now, the kidnapper, I feel, is very egotistical. He is certainly unbalanced. And he will watch the papers. I am sure that when he reads the newspaper story...and perhaps hears by word of mouth about the strange man coming...he will be sufficiently motivated to try and strike at me, probably Sunday, in the kidnapping area...even though he may be out of it now. My strange, unusual powers may indeed give you some clues...perhaps important. But also add this plan...and we might get results. I can be the bait to catch this criminal. The woods people and mountain people have much more faith in witchcraft and ESP than sophisticated city people, you'd better believe it. And I am sure this kidnapper would try to eliminate me. You would have to transport me there Friday evening or Saturday morning... and furnish me with a concealed walkie-talkie, plus a .357 Magnum pistol for protection. Withdraw any police from my area, and let me go through the woods from the point of the kidnapping. I am sure that if the man is still anywhere in the area, he will try for me...being of that sick ego, and unbalanced. When he does, I'll contact you, and you come in. As I explained to you on the phone, am not interested in any fee or charge. Just in getting the girl back. And I think I can. Sincerely, H. T. Owens 1114 Spruce St., #33 Phila., Pa. 08/06/2025 17:14 === Page 100 of 220 5/16/66 p2 article, or one like it, to be published in the Shade Gap newspaper other small towns around...Wednesday of this week, or Thursday.) # WITCHCRAFT TO FIND A KIDNAPPER? Well, almost. A famous clairvoyant, with powerful ESP ability, is coming to Shade Gap this Saturday and Sunday, from Philadelphia, on his own, to give clues to the police that he "senses" and "pictures". These impressions he will get from the area of the kidnapping spot. His name is Owens, and he has been very successful in the past. Like the famed psychic Peter Herkos, Owens gets mental pictures of the criminal, and other important facts as well. When questioned, Owens gave this statement: "Obviously this kidnapper is crazy, insane. And also a coward...to pick on a small girl. I intend to spend Saturday and Sunday in the kidnapping area where the girl was taken, and I am positive that I will be able to get a picture in my mind of the kidnapper, and be able to tell the police of his habits, his work, and other facts which can lead to his capture. Perhaps even his present location." When asked if this might not be dangerous...to be in that same area... Owens replied: "No, this crazy man only picks on helpless girls. I will be alone in the area. As a matter of fact, the police have agreed to stay away and let me work those two days in my own way, by myself there. That way I can concentrate better." Well, it might work. In Philadelphia, Owens is regarded as a powerful ESP worker, or "witch". If that is what it takes to catch a criminal...why not? (Note: The above article would be a personal insult, and dare, to the kidnapper. If he is the "sniper" as the papers think, then he would for sure make a try for me. Then you would get him.) As I explained to you on the phone, am not interested in any fee or charge. Just in getting the girl back. And I think I can. Sincerely, H. T. Owens 1114 Spruce St., #33 Phila., Pa === Page 101 of 220 Wednesday May 18, 1966 Copies - Lonnie & Rick Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Last night in the paper an article read: "Submerged, Pre-Aimed Missile Reported Developed by Reds." This article pointed out Russia has developed Polaris-type missiles which can be fired by remote control from containers planted under the sea. All of which is exactly what I wrote to you, about a year or so ago. Remember? I told you to count the fishing boats that visited our shores... because when they left, they would be one short...and the one that went down was especially designed to hold a missile...which could be remote-control fired later on. At the present time I am sure this is what Cuba is all about. Yes, there probably are stores of missiles in deep caves...and perhaps a few launching sites for ground-fired missiles...but George, I'll eat my hat if Russia hasn't planted a formidable number of missiles under water at the far edge of Cuba, to be fired at the U.S. when ready. Perhaps even fired from Russia by special radio signal. P K Man (Owens) === Page 102 of 220 5/18/66 P2 Thursday May 19, 1966 May 20, 1966 The Si's warn that a man is planning to load a small plane with high-explosives...and send the plane, kamikaze style, into the White House or Johnson's ranch. This man has planned this for a long while - put it off once, but now is getting "worked up" to do it. Of course he'll be killed, but he doesn't care. Believe he's an ex-army flyer...service man, anyway. Si's say by 1967 the White House will have to be ringed with anti-aircraft, just on this account. P K Man Myself and Si's will endeavor to whip up and guide many hurricanes this season to the "Electro" area of Florida, where Cape K. is located, then bring them on up the Coast to "sprinkle the grass" in a giant way all along the East Coast. Brace yourself, friend...as a Hurricane specialist, you'll have a ball this summer and Fall. === Page 103 of 220 5/18/66 P3 Thursday May 19, 1966 Mr. Dunn, Chief, Weather Bureau, Hurricanes Miami, Florida Dear Mr. Dunn: Last year I deliberately turned Hurricane Betsy around, with the help of the UFO intelligences, so that it would not go up the East Coast and give rain and moisture in the East Coast area. I had written Govt. agencies before, that I would do this. This year, however, the UFO's are engaged in breaking the 5-year drought on the East Coast...and any and all hurricanes will be brought up the East Coast all the way, in order to give moisture to that area. Myself and Si's will endeavor to whip up and guide many hurricanes this season to the "Electro" area of Florida, where Cape K. is located, then bring them on up the Coast to "sprinkle the grass" in a giant way all along the East Coast. Brace yourself, friend...as a Hurricane specialist, you'll have a ball this summer and Fall. P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce Philadelphia, Pa. === Page 104 of 220 Monday May 23, 1966 Copy - Rick Lorne Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: A special warning from the Si's...a great danger immediately ahead, dead-ahead, for the country of the U.S. They say...watch carefully our three coastal areas...from the Atlantic side, the Pacific side, and the southern Gulf side. For this is where the greatest threat to us comes from...the water. They way we are foolish at this time to concentrate on outer space, when we should be devising ways to defend our three exposed coastal areas, in depth. They mean...far out for 100 to 300 miles off each coast. To make sure there are no destructive mechanisms within this range now, and to prepare ways and means to insure there will be none in the future. Incidentally, George, only two persons have ever ridiculed to my face my claim of association with the Si's. One was Jack McKinney, whom I like, of the WCAU Phila. radio show...who said he could hardly keep from laughing over the radio - and the City Editor of the Phila. News, when I went up to see him personally not long ago. He was insulting. Well, that same City Editor just dropped dead, while on vacation at Aruba, Dutch West Indies, last Thursday. Did I ever tell you that the key man responsible for my losing my hypnotism business in Ft. Worth, a lawyer named Shelman, dropped dead unexpectedly of a brain hemorrhage not long after I left Texas? In looking over my old letters to you, just realized another terrific prediction I made to you came true. On Feb. 12, 1965, my letter to you, 6th paragraph...Si's warned the U.S. Govt. of a fiendish commie plan to sneak small portable A-bombs into key U.S. cities. On March 7, 1966, an article "The Washington Report" by Allen & Scott (in the Phila. News) this same information came out...that the U.S. Govt. had discovered this, and was taking secret steps to combat it - and it was the same info I'd warned you about a year earlier! Since writing you months ago that the Si's were taking away the "drought PK" from over the U.S. and were bringing to an end the years-long drought a radio reporter said yesterday that recent rains in the Northeast Coast area have made the water picture better than it has been in the past three years! And some previously drought-stricken areas on the East Coast have now even been taken off their emergency basis, and water restrictions removed. You'll have to admit that's progress, George. === Page 105 of 220 5/23/66 p 2 May 23, 1966 May 23, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency This may interest you. The Si's have communicated they will use all their power to see that Johnson & Company lose everything at voting time...at the polls..if indeed they reach that point... because Johnson has rejected their friendly approach. Saw Sec. of Air Force Herald Brown on TV...I would sum him up as a sneaky, two-faced idiot. He and McNamara make a perfect pair. My God!! Where do we get these "top men?" In closing...the Si's warn...the recent stock market clobbering was no accident. You are referred to my letter of June 24, 1965..."unless the U.S. Govt. recognizes its (Si's) agent, P K Man, publicly, and helps P K Man...then Nature (Si's) will wreck and demolish the U.S. economy...will ruin the stock market. It will make the 1929 stock market crash seem like a picnic by comparison." That's what will happen ahead, George, if the Si's continue to be ridiculed and ignored. The U.S. Govt. has paid a terrible price already, by ignoring the Si's...should this stupidly continue? P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 106 of 220 Wednesday May 25, 1966 Rick LORNIE 5/25/66 P2 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: In my Feb. 25 letter I pointed out that all important people in the U.S. Government must be on guard from 2/25 through May...it would be a danger period. But that prediction, given me by the Si's, has worked out sort of poorly, because not much has happened to validate it. The two astronauts were killed, of course, about ten days after I wrote that to you. Then also I believe some Senator died...Johnson went to his funeral...was it McNamara? Allessandroni was killed in a plane crash...and Milton Shapp's helicopter caught fire and crashed...but he was luckier than Allessandroni, and only got bashed up a little. President Johnson's helicopter caught fire at the White House, but luckily he wasn't in it; his baggage was. Bill Moyers fell down a flight of steps at the White House, hit his head, and went to the hospital with concussion. Senator Dirksen fell down, hit his head and was knocked out, smashing his glasses, and fracturing his hip. Had surgery in Bethesda Hospital. Senator Mike Mansfield went into Bethesda Hospital about a week ago and is still there. Reason not given. Congressman Hardy (Virginia) just underwent surgery at Bethesda Hospital. Congressman MacGregor (Minnesota) just underwent surgery at Bethesda Hos. Congressman Moss (California) is now in Bethesda Hospital. Eisenhower has been in the hospital for weeks. Yesterday Bollinger, a top missile scientist with NASA (he developed the hydrogen-oxygen propellant used in the Saturn rocket engine) was murdered in Ohio. And yesterday Congressman Fraser's daughter (Minn.) was killed by a car. But other than that, ;my prediction didn't pan out. Of course, there's still a wee bit of time left. Something might happen yet. P K Man (Owens) === Page 107 of 220 Rick Wednesday May 25, 1966 The Post Master U. S. Post Office 30th and Market Sts. Phila., Pa. Dear Sir: Yesterday our mailbox was robbed - an envelope ripped open and a ring, sent by our 16-year-old from California to my wife, as a Mother's Day gift, stolen. As well as a supply of stamps the boy enclosed. We live in an apartment house at 1114 Spruce St., and our mail has been opened many times... then we have found it in our box, already opened. We have complained about it to the postman delivering the mail... but of course all he can say is that the situation is being watched. We have heard other people in the building complain that their boxes are being pilfered, also. Someone broke the lock off our mailbox. Isn't there anything the Post Office can do to stop this? Are thugs free to loot mailboxes here and there, at their whim, without the law stepping in? We would certainly appreciate it, if the law did step in. Enclosed is the envelope the ring and stamps were stolen from, exactly as we found it. H. T. Owens 1114 Spruce St., #33 Phila., Pa. === Page 108 of 220 May 25, 1966 Dear Rick: I enjoyed hearing from you, honey. But you made a big mistake. Remember I wrote you quite a while back...and told you and Lornie never to send anything to us of value, unless it was by Special Delivery? (Costs 30¢) When I got home last night Martha was crying. She got your letter, but some crook had gotten into our mailbox and taken your ring and stamps out of the letter first. You see, that happens all the time here in Philadelphia, and in our building. All the time we find our letters and mail ripped open before we get down to get it. They have even discovered mailmen in this town looting their own mail. So...after Martha went through weeks of going down to meet the mailman to get your package, the package that never came...now she has had this new disappointment with the ring. Tell you what...pick out another ring, identical to the one you sent. Send me the price of it...I'll send you the money, and you send it to her Air Mail, Special Delivery. I'll include the stamp money, too. Okay? Get into action on this, chum. Our pal deserves a better break than what she's getting. Not getting that ring you sent, just broke her heart. You know how she is. We took Beau to the doctors here, for a cold...but now they are jumping up and down with excitement...because they have discovered something about his mind that is quite unusual. They won't tell me what. They did ask me if he had any unusual powers of the mind...if he managed to do things with his mind children usually couldn't do...and I told them about his reading my mind constantly. They are beginning a series of tests on him June 15. Am glad you get pleasure from playing pool with a fine cue. Like a good horse, it will give you good service, if you take care of it. It's heavy...but that's good...like practicing with extra-heavy drum sticks...then when you swing into hot jazz, the lighter sticks seem to fly. And the heavy stick makes your stroke smoother. So Jimmy could talk at 2...so what? Put Jimmy and Beau together, and you'd see the difference! Whew! Beau has the strongest mind of any human being I have ever encountered...bar none. And he's brilliant. Buy the July Fate magazine...and look in the back in the "Personal" ads...and you'll see your dad's ad. The Si's have given me a way to start the Sota's. Love, Dad === Page 109 of 220 May 27, 1966 Dear Lonnie, How are you? We are just fine. I hope you are fine. I received the card & the candy. Thank you very much for the beautiful Mother's Day card & the candy. The candy was very delicious. Beau helped me eat it. Yes, I know about Julia & you two make a cute couple. The picture you sent to us was very good. You both make a handsome couple. He is a nice looking boy. You look very grown up in the picture & a lot older about 18 or 19 years old. My you are really growing fast. Pretty soon you will be taller than Mom (ha ha). Beau had an ear infection about 3 weeks ago. He had a fever. I took him to the doctor & I had to give him medicine & nose drops four times a day. He had a temperature of 102°. He is just fine now. I had a very nice Mother's Day. Beau gave me a very pretty card & we went to the circus. Beau had a ball. We went on lots of rides & we saw the side show, we didn't go to the big tent on Mother's Day. We went back the following Sat. to the big tent. Beau had big eyes trying to see everything. He was so excited. He === Page 110 of 220 remembered us being in there & doing the show. The circus was here May 5 till the 15th. He kept wanting to ride on the bus to the circus. He just loves the circus. He is beginning to say sentences now. He loves to watch Batman. He can't say the Bat in Batman so he says manman. He gets all excited when he comes on T.V. Was so sorry to hear about your aunt Mary dying. It was a shock to us. We have a singing canary. It sings very pretty. I named it twitty pie, it is yellow & very pretty. It doesn't sing to much now because it is molting. Beau teases it sometimes. Sorry to hear that you're not doing to well in school. Have you had your exams? Hope you & Rick pass. When is school out? Hope you get surf princess. Good luck to you. Write & let me know if you get it. Have they already voted or not? The weather is very nice here. It is really hot today. It has been raining a lot here & the weather just got nice & hot here recently. Before it was cold & raining here. I got an electric mixer for Mother's Day. It is real nice. I am so happy to have it. Well, I guess I will close for now. Love, Momma, Beau & Dad (XO XO XO) P.S. I took Beau to an Armed Forces Parade last Sat. It was the first parade he had ever been to. He waved at the soldiers as they went by. He was so excited. === Page 111 of 220 June 1, 1966 George Clark Central Intelligence Dear George: The SI's today gave me some interesting information to pass on. Seems that when they flew near some police cars, in a recent sighting...the stupid police actually fired guns at their craft. (This was not made public...and may even be kept a secret by the officers who committed this colossal blunder.) However, the SI's warn...if they approach in friendly fashion in the future...and are fired upon or attacked in an unfriendly manner...the police will be minus one police car and officers. The SI's will eliminate it, as a lesson to humans. That was pretty damn stupid, George, of those police to do that. P K Man (Owens) === Page 112 of 220 6/3/66 P1 Friday morning June 3, 1966 Dear Rick and Lornie Wednesday afternoon durned if Jack McKinney didn't call me up and ask me to appear on his "Night Talk" show that night, Wed. night. Remember I was on there for four hours, non-stop, last year? This, of course, gave me no chance to prepare material or anything. Last year I took a week to get ready for them. But to my great amazement...although a scientist sat at the table with Jack and myself...there was no attack on me. On the contrary, Jack even testified over the radio that all of the predictions I'd been sending in, had been true (I've been sending him copies, like yourselves.) The "PK Man" (how he addressed me throughout and advertised me late that afternoon) segment lasted until 12:30...2½ hours. They spent an hour letting people call up and talk to me over the "phone". Only one man called me a "good-natured phony"...all the rest of the calls said they believed me, and how they enjoyed hearing the program. And the one man who attacked me...was bawled out severely by another man who called up and said he "felt sorry" for the man who said "phony" because a person such as him couldn't understand what it is I am doing. The man who said I was a "phony" intimated I was sending in letters after things happened, not before. (Which is quite wrong, of course.) Anyway, it was lots of fun....and as usual, their telephone switchboard went absolutely crazy with the amount of calls. When we went off the air at 12:30 (program lasts until 2, and they had two more people to interview) telephone calls were still flooding the switchboard with people wanting to talk to me about the Si's. Now, the Si's would like you to do this: Both of you sit down, and write a long letter to Mr. Jack McKinney, "Night Talk", Radio Station WCAU, Philadelphia, Pa. Tell him in detail of our using PK in Phoenix, and on our long long trip (without telling him we were broke, ha ha). Tell him how we worked with the hurricanes in Myrtle Beach, etc. And ask him, if he tells the people about their report, to give me a call before so I can listen. (Send me a copy of your letter when you write him.) If you have a friend who has one of these "World radios" you could even hear the program. Must run now. Love always Dad P.S. They did an odd thing - Station WCAU did a complete re-play of the entire 2½ hours I did with Jack - when I got home was dialing radio for music (about 1:30) & durned if my === Page 113 of 220 Kids this explains the mysterious re-play! Govt. put me on Wed. instead on purpose! Read below. 6/3/66 P2 Friday morning June 3, 1966 Mr. Jack McKinney Dear Jack: The Si's came through with some very interesting intelligence as I was walking to work today. As you know, they had told me to tell the U.S. Govt. that they would ruin the Surveyor shot...and harass the Gemini 9 shot, as they have been doing. Well, the Surveyor took off...and lost an aerial...and the Si's were getting ready to ruin the gadget when suddenly P K Man their Representative, was called up and invited to talk about them, the Si's, over the radio. This had not been anticipated by the Si's. When P K Man went on the program, was given an opportunity to talk more about the Si's and their wishes, and P K Man was not badly treated...that is, was treated as a guest, not a man on trial, this pleased the Si's very much. Now Jack...recall last year when I was on your show...and the Si's made it rain exactly at the time I went on, and closed down the rain as I went off. Then the following week, on "Talk of Philadelphia" show...they made it rain because I'd been invited again to talk about them. And the rain stood for what they were willing to "pay" the United States in exchange for the U.S. Govt. fixing me up so that I could arrange to meet them. In other words, whenever I appeared on the radio, the Si's rewarded the town with rain...and this was at the time of deep drought, remember? When there just was no rain at all. So...the Si's told me this morning...they decided to allow the Surveyor to go on and land and function, just as they allowed the rain to fall last year, as a reward to the people of the U.S. for allowing their case to be further presented to the people. They wish that you would read this letter over the air, to the people, Jack. And it might be pointed out, as far as I am concerned, that one-half of my prediction was correct...that Gemini 9 was blocked Wednesday from taking off...harassed as usual. I am just sorry that I didn't know about the change of mind on the part of the Si's...but the radio program came on too sudden. One other point...the Si's salute NASA and its workers...because, although the U.S. people are not aware of it...NASA has far outdone Russia, in that NASA has had to make all these difficult shots, in the face of Si harassment and hostility. In other words, the Si's have caused practically all of NASA's troubles, but the people do not know it. Nor NASA. 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 114 of 220 6/3/63 p3 Rick Lornie Friday June 3, 1966 Dear Jack McKinney: If you get a chance, please read this short letter some evening. It is an afterthought...two days after appearing on your program, and is a rebuttal to the gentleman who phoned in, asking if it was not "childish" of the Si's to kill two of our Astronauts (plane crash not too long ago) and harass NASA and the U.S. Govt., just for the sake of demonstrations of their powers. My rebuttal: Is it not true that we, the United States, have killed goodness knows how many innocent little babies, and their mothers...in Viet Nam...PURELY BY ACCIDENT, MIND YOU...in order to teach North Viet Nam and China a lesson? The U.S. has been giving tremendous bombing demonstrations for one main purpose...to show our muscles to N. Viet Nam and China. And this has resulted in our accidentally bombing and killing not only many innocent Vietnamese...but even many of our own boys...ACCIDENTALLY. Now, I put it to the gentleman who called; If the Si's are "childish" for killing two of our astronauts...what does that make us people, who have done far worse...and for the same reason, teaching a lesson. That would put our U.S. thinking somewhere BELOW childish, I believe. Tell the gentleman to think about it. I'm sure I'm right. Sincerely, P K Man (Owens) Love Dad === Page 115 of 220 Rick Saturday, June 4, 1966 Mr. Eastwood, Inventions N.A.S.A. Dear Mr. Eastwood: Been a lot of action since my daughter and I visited you, eh? At that time my "PK" work must have seemed amusing to you. However, by now, after sending you copies of predictions over a long period of time, you are now better able to evaluate properly the results of "PK". You must admit, the Si's have been busy. Below is a list of rockets, missiles, etc., fired up by NASA which were hit by "PK" and duly logged in my little black book, as the action took place on each, AND WHICH WERE THEN DESTROYED OR DISABLED WITH PK MISSION ACCOMPLISHED: Saturn Rocket Ranger 6 Titan 2 Titan 3 Orbiting Geophysical Observatory (OGO-A) Minuteman 1 Imp 2 Mariner 3 Minuteman 1 Tiros Weather Rocket Centaur Rocket Scout Rocket Titan 3A Space Glider on Thor Delta (Project Asset, above) Atlas-Centaur Rocket (Project Surveyor, above) "Snapshot" - Ion Engine Rocket Air Force Tracking Rocket, Star Gemini 5 - Hit by storm, fire, lightning & mechanical failure...but still managed to get up and down. O.S.O. Flying Laboratory, 8/25 X-19 Experimental Plane Thor-Agena Titan Rocket Agena Atlas Rocket Titan 3, w/4 Satellites aboard. Gemini 8 wrecked; Astronauts escaped, thank God. Gemini 8 Agena went wild; useless. === Page 116 of 220 6/4/66 P2 Page Two (Continued - Rockets Destroyed or Disabled) O.A.O. - Orbiting Astronomical Laboratory. Atlas-Centaur Rocket New Polaris Rocket, Cape. Explorer Satellite Rocket Saturn Moon Rocket Test Stage, Miss. (Note: After "testing" PK on the first two of this list, I then began writing the Cape and the State Department of what would happen...and also wrote them that lightning would hit the Cape, as well as hurricanes, as a result of PK work. Then lightning hit a lightning-proof pad at the Cape. Later, last July, lightning hit another pad, actually striking some workers And lightning hit very close to Gemini 5. As for my hurricane prediction...you know well Hurricane Cleo, Hurricane Dora, and Hurricane Isbell sideswiped Cape Kennedy. Hurricane Gladys missed, but just the same tore up the work at the Cape for a time, just from the threat of her. Hurricane Hilda bullseyed on the Michoud Space Complex. Hurricane Betsy bullseyed on Michoud Space Complex, and she bullseyed on NASA's Bahamas set-up. These five different hurricanes that hit NASA were guided by PK work. Then we have to add the destruction of The Space Eye, down near the Cape. One Russian spaceship was worked on by PK - the Voshkod Spaceship, and it was brought down exactly as I said it would be. Crashed in the woods. Add to this list further results of the PK - side-effects - which I do not like, but which happened: Dryden, Deputy Director of NASA, died. Lovelace, Chief of NASA, killed in crash. One Astronaut killed when a bird flew into his plane, and it crashed. Two Astronauts killed in another plane crash. General Branch of NASA killed in crash. ---------- Now, the following list are the "ones that got away" from PK, and were successful shots: McNamara's Minuteman from silo, Cape. Gemini from Cape, 1/'65. Explorer Satellite, 12/'64 Minuteman 2 from Cape, 12/'64 O.S.O., 1/2/65 2/17 Cape Rocket 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 117 of 220 6/4/66 P3 Page Three (Continued - Successful Shots) 2/18 Cape Rocket Gemini 3 Ranger 9 Gemini 6-7 Polaris, new, Cape Surveyor Moon Rocket ---------- Now just compare the two lists. See the difference? Vandenberg shots were left clear by the Si's, so that the U.S. Govt. could be able to tell the difference between an area inundated with "PK"...and a free area. (Electra, the California coast, is PK'd, but it is a completely different type of PK than the Electro, or Florida coast.) I think the Si's have proved their point terrifically, don't you? Point is, the PK grows, as I explained to you when I met you. It grows as time goes by...gets stronger and more powerful. That is why the Si's cannot be ignored ad infinitum, as they have been in the past... or called "marsh gas" and dismissed with a flip of the hand. And of course, the point of all that destruction PK was not that it was done for meanness or orniriness...but TO PROVE THAT PK FORCES NOW EXIST AND CAN DEFEAT ANY OR ALL PARTS OF THE U.S. EFFORTS TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL. Also, TO PROVE THAT THE UFO'S ARE BEHIND IT, AND ARE DOING IT. Also, TO SHOW THE U.S. GOVT., BY THE DEMONSTRATIONS OF THESE TREMENDOUS POWERS, WHAT COULD BE DONE TO HELP THE U.S. GOVT. FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PK COIN. What is a dirty shame...a lowdown dirty shame...is that the people of the United States...the man on the street...cannot be told by the U.S. Government about this...that NASA has actually done a superb job, and the Cape workers, and the Astronauts, have done heroic work...trying in the face of this horrendous PK to succeed in space work...and in a few cases actually succeeding! It's much much later now, Mr. Eastwood...but I repeat, the PK is still growing in size and power on the Cape Kennedy area (Electro). And it can only be taken down, erased, removed, by the Si's. And I do their human talking for them, for better or for worse. Some day somebody had better talk to me. P K MAN (Owens) Owens Love, Dad === Page 118 of 220 Rick P.S. Kids - P.S.

Alma is the first. Am trying to guide her up past Miami onto Cape Kennedy, then on up the coast to New York, for their rainfall needed badly there and to help the East Coast drought. (When I say "up past Miami, am taking her to the left of Miami...halfway between Naples and Miami. Am telling you this for an accuracy check later on.) See enclosed item. It is most regrettable that you didn't take me up on my proposition, couple of months ago. Am using that tall tall "moonship" thing that doesn't fly, that NASA hauled out laboriously several weeks ago...as the absolute bullseye center for my hurricane work this year, on the Cape K. P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce, #33 Philadelphia, Pa. CAPE ALMA CUBA Kids - send me copy your ltr. where I mentioned planting PK "cane seeds. Will return it. Important! 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 119 of 220 6/8/66 P2 P.S. If you see an inevitable bullseye on Miami from Alma...remember my proposition. I am the only human alive who can take Alma off and away, leaving Florida safe. However, don't wait too long to contract my services...for there is a great difference in diverting a tiger while it's springing in mid-air...and diverting a tiger once it has its teeth in its victim. Then its too late. P K Man (Owens) === Page 120 of 220 Monday, June 13, 1966 Rick Lornie Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's did a bang-up job of handing the AF a smashing blow last week (as I warned they would.) Not only did they cause the destruction of over a half billion dollars in planes - but now it turns out the AF made the infinitely stupid booboo of allowing this to happen merely for a publicity stunt for a private company! So the other half of last week's smashing blow will be the after-reaction of the people and authorities toward this AF mistake. Now I will do the U.S. Govt. a good turn - and warn it to call off the fleet exercises ("Beach Time") involving 40 ships, in the Atlantic and Caribbean, June 13-26. Why? (1) You will remember I warned the Govt. last year, when it held fleet exercises off the Pacific coast. They went ahead - and shot a missile at a drone. The missile ignored the drone and bullseyed on a carrier plane up in the sky somewhere else, destroying plane and pilot. (There were other accidents there, too). (2) I have already warned that the Atlantic now is dangerous for ships, subs, planes - because the Si's are using our Atlantic area to correct our long long drought condition for us. (3) I have loaded the Caribbean area with PK to make hurricanes to bring up the East Coast. (Am working on other June Hurricanes.) (4) On June 5 I made a written prediction to Mr. and Mrs. Hansell, 29 S. Wyoming, Ardmore, Pa., that (1) Si's will bring about a nuclear sub catastrophe, or carrier catastrophe - i.e., a naval catastrophe, involving U.S. vessels, by September, 1966. (2) Si's will deal our "seat of government" (The White House, Capitol Hill) a serious blow, by Sept., 1966. (These two effects to further demonstrate their powers to humans, and to prove their much-ridiculed reality...marsh gas, etc. (5) Ship-sub-plane PK has been in effect, growing, for over a year now. (6) These vessels will be within the reach of deadly "Electro" - area PK'd from Miami to Jacksonville. Put this all together, and these ships will be holding exercises in very deadly danger! So, let the U.S. Govt. be warned in advance. Just remember Needles Military Exercises; U.S./Spain Military Exercises; N.C./S.C. Military Exercises - and what happened to them. In closing, the Si's have instructed me to tell the U.S. Govt. that they were the direct cause of the XB 70A & F 104 crash in the desert. They want it clearly understood...that this was part of their punishment for the Air Force...and no accident at all. P K Man (Owens) Owens 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 121 of 220 Copy - Rick, Lorrie Keep this in your file, nuthead! This is priceless! Friday, June 17, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's are frustrated and thus irked, because I am not getting anywhere in an effort to meet them personally...they will not come into downtown Philadelphia, I know...and I cannot get isolated so they can come down without any interference from anyone. Therefore I predict all hell will break loose in the form of catastrophies in the near days and weeks ahead. The Lord only knows what they will think up...they are very ingenious. I wrote you last November about Him and Her, the President's dogs...and in the same letter told you how our dog got ran over and killed. You might be interested in looking at that letter, since the President's dog just got ran over...it's as if the Si's waited until the sense of that letter was accurate, then arranged for Him's accident, so the letter will be read at this time, again. "Him" Whatever happened to OGO, shot up from the Cape a while back? They were supposed to be communicating with it a week ago...but there's not been a word in the papers about it. Am setting up Philadelphia for some of the roughest, toughest storms Phila. has ever had. Am building up the electrical potential here for it. Should be an extraordinary amount of lightning striking all around, when it comes. THREE SO FAR Tornados tore up Topeka, Kansas, not long ago. Si's say...that could happen to the White House and Capitol Hill, just as easily. Si's say they are going to demonstrate with the oceans and seas now... make them reject and attack humans like a body rejects a strange live implant (liver, kidney, etc.) Si's say the seas and oceans have a form of intelligence, taken as a whole unit. They are turning them against humans, as a demonstration of one of their strange powers. Si's say the earliest peoples on earth used these "PK" systems...but as they invented hand tools and weapons, their PK power decreased...until finally the power was usually narrowed down to one person in a tribe, The Elder...until the power was lost entirely. (Up until now. I have it.) Thought you might be interested in all the phenomena that has occurred in our apartment on Spruce: Kids - Si's got your tongue? 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 122 of 220 6/17/66 p2 The noise. A strange, weird, deep humming drone, seems about a foot or two away from us. Comes at odd times, lasts about 2-5 minutes, then goes away. Sometimes we do not hear it for weeks; then we'll hear it two or three times in a week. Never heard a noise like it. Things vanish. I put a pound of oleo in the ice-box one night. Got up in the morning and it was gone. My wife and I were baffled. My cigars have disappeared, without anyone touching them. I had a five and ten dollar bill disappear overnight (my wife didn't touch them.) And other odd things have vanished as well. My wife woke me one night and we both saw small UFO's in the room. Then, on several occasions, she saw a small light the size of a marble moving slowly around my head in the dark, after we'd gone to bed. My clothes are all falling apart. Shorts, shirts, pants...all are coming apart, holes forming. It has gotten funny. Practically every shirt, pants, and shorts I have is full of holes, suddenly. And these have nothing to do with moths. They aren't that type of hole, or tear. My clothes now rip and tear like soft paper. The baby keeps pointing at some "man" he sees, excitedly...but we don't see anybody...and the baby doesn't joke. "Man, man!" he cries, pointing. And of course there isn't any man there. I woke one morning about 3:30 and clouds of smoke or fog were filling the room...I could see them boiling up against faint light on the wall. I thought the place was on fire and called my wife, and we got up and frantically checked out in the hall, etc. But there wasn't any fire...and the "smoke" had vanished when we got back. Three different times the baby was waked up screaming in the middle of the night...and not more than 10 minutes afterward, each time...there is a tremendous explosion outside our windows. First the baby screams and wakes us up, then comes the explosion. One night I jammed the hall door open securely. When we got up, the jamming-object had been removed, and the door firmly closed and locked. We didn't do it. Also a heavy art-object had moved from a table to the floor. Martha and I both saw a pigeon on the roof opposite with what looked like a small radar-antennae on its neck...it was a collar, but not flat, the edges cupping outwards. Never saw anything like it. Am expecting a major earthquake in the near future in the U.S., in the shape of a huge "T" - with the top of the T running up and down California, and the bottom of the T running toward Colorado. 3 BIG QUAKES HIT CALIF. SINCE. Owene 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 123 of 220 Rick Lornie Thursday June 23, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's at this time would like me to list the various PK activities they are engaged in, as well as the predictions they have made for what's ahead: "Electro" - the area from Jacksonville, Fla., to Miami, Fla., is heavily PK'd, as you know...has been for two years...and it's growing all the time, the PK. "Electra" - the California coast from Frisco to Dago, PK'd. Plane-Ship-Sub PK - been on for over a year, still growing, attacks these three categories constantly in ever-increasing cyclical intensity. Breaking The Drought - Si's are systematically regulating U.S. weather now to bring to an end the 5-year drought here and once again fill the rivers, streams, wells, lakes, with fresh water for us. Air Force - Si's are presently teaching the Air Force a lesson...that they can rebut in their own way their "marsh gas" tag; they have gone to great effort and trouble to prove their reality, only to have the Air Force block their efforts from the American people. So they are going to teach the Air Force not to do this thing. NASA - Si's are harassing all NASA's efforts in space work, in every possible way, with PK effects. Top U.S. Govt. Officials - PK'd. Prediction - A U.S. naval disaster by Sept., 1966. Nuclear sub, aircraft carrier, etc. Not just a collision, but a disaster of some sort. Prediction - Unless U.S. removes troops and personnel from Viet Nam, U.S. will suffer its worst defeat in its entire history there, from an unexpected twist that will take place. Could be a massacre of Americans. Hurricane PK - is out and working, to develop hurricanes for '66 and bring them either to Cape Kennedy or Mississippi Michoud Saturn Space Complex...then on up East Coast for needed rain. Titan w/8 satellites PK'd...now up. === Page 124 of 220 6/23/66 P2 2 Prediction - There is great danger for the U.S. now...of nuclear war... through January, 1967. That is, the danger is especially keen right now, more so than usual, due to activities the U.S. is not aware of. The Si's plan to do something very unusual...make an appearance and do something no UFO has done before, in the near future, to prove their reality to the U.S. Govt., and their connection with P K Man. Castro and Cuba - have been PK'd since 1964. Si's are PK'ing bodies of water...seas, oceans, lakes, rivers, etc... to reject humans and attack humans in many ways (as never done before) in order to further demonstrate their PK powers. Si's warn...if U.S. peoples keep shooting at their craft, and trying to attack their craft, they will reluctantly have to retaliate in kind. They have been trying hard to avoid anything like this. Si's warn us...watch carefully our 3 coasts...Atlantic, Pacific, Gulf, for great danger threatens the U.S. from the water on these coasts. Si's warned U.S. to cancel present Fleet exercise in Atlantic and Carribean called "Beach Time" because of heavy concentration of PK in these areas, etc. Si's warn that a man somewhere is planning a kamikaze-style small plane crash, loaded with explosives, into the White House or Johnson's Ranch House...and that because of this the White House and Capitol will have to be ringed with anti-aircraft by '67. "Earth Belt" PK - PK used by Si's in area above earth to affect objects in orbit around earth. Russian Earthquakes - PK has been out on this for over a year. Vehicle PK - Autos, trains, planes, busses, etc., will be affected. Klu Klux Klan PK - Hit by PK over a year ago. Johnson Administration Re-election PK - Si's will work against the present Administration, which has rejected them and failed to cooperate with them. "OGO" PK'd...now up. Titan w/8 satellites PK'd...now up. 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 125 of 220 6/23/66 p3 3 June 23, 1966 Philadelphia PK'd for Lightning and Savage Storms and Rain, in the near future. Electrical potential to be built up here. WCAU PK Demonstration - Friendly Si demonstration for the benefit of their radio station friends. Jack McKinney PK - Not a "hit", but some unusual demonstration solely for the amusement and education of Jack McKinney re the Si's. A large-scale blow will be dealt by the Si's to the U.S. Govt. because of the nation-wide CBS hour-long TV UFO spoof, not long ago, "Friends, Foes, or Fantasy." This will happen by October 15, 1966. McNamara PK - The Si's have made McNamara a special PK target of theirs, for stating that there is absolutely nothing to the Si's ... to the American people via newspapers, etc. (If there is nothing to the UFO's, then McNamara has nothing to worry about, has he.) Johnson and White House PK'd - some time ago, and since then many odd things have happened there. Moyers fell down stairs, Him run over, etc. Stock Market PK'd. Prediction - Si's now have something much bigger and more important for P K Man to perform, than what he's been doing in the past. (?) Si's warn that the phrase "Black Power" is a sort of magical phrase which will now truly whip the negros into a frenzy - and Stokely Carmichael is the magician who can make that phrase work to its upmost extent in time to come. Si's warn they may put ideas for weapons and unknown tools of Nature into the minds of peoples elsewhere in the world, other than the U.S., who will then humble our country with them...unless our Govt. cooperates with Si's. Si's warn...they intend to deal our seat of Government, The White House, or Capitol Hill, a serious blow of some kind by Sept., 1966. - - - - - - - - - - I think that's the entire list...oh, they are PK'ing for a major earthquake in California some time this year, around 8 on the Richter Scale. All this...to show their various powers to our people...and try to persuade our Government to join them as friends, and cooperate with them. They are using pressure on our Govt., just as U.S. is pressuring Hanoi. PK Man - Dad 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 126 of 220 Thursday June 23, 1966 Dear Lornie: Daddy thinks your birthday card is wonderful, honey...that's a very cute colored picture...and the artwork inside is very ingenious, also, along with your message. Thank you very much, Lornie. Of course...what else is a dollar for but an ice-cream party? So I am following your instructions, and the three of us will have one of these famous "Owens Cross-Country Ice Cream Binges" on you. Wasn't that funny...? All of us , poised and ready with our portable spoons...huddled all around in the car...with the ½ gallon of ice cream in the middle. Then I'd say go, and everybody went. Ha ha! Messy, messy, messy..... Hope your grades are okay, Lornie. And that you are enjoying your school. The Phila. schools are dangerous...full of drugs, dope addicts, prostitution (they've broken up several rings where the high school boys were selling the girls, here) and like that. So.....you are much better off in that school than you would be here. But we ain't going to be here long. We are GOING just as soon as .... we can bankroll the Leaving Philly Project. We are going to a beautiful, scenic, wooded place somewhere...where we can go fishing and camping on weekends, and things like that. Where's there's lakes and rivers, etc. Phooey on big cities. Phooey. Be good, and mind Pat, Lornie. Remember...mama knows best. And that's for sure. Don't get too big for your britches . Love and kisses, Daddy XXXXX ( ) ( ) ( ) === Page 127 of 220 You have this prediction in your files. Rick Lorne I sent Jack McKinney a ring to wear 2 days before this lightning attack so he wouldn't get hit! Dad. Thursday, June 29, 1966 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Another bullseye. Remember my letter to you of June 17: "Am setting up Philadelphia for some of the roughest, toughest storms Philadelphia has ever had. Am building up the electrical potential for it. Should be an extraordinary amount of lightning striking all around, when it comes." Here are quotations straight out of today's Philadelphia newspapers (13 days after my "prediction"): "Violent electrical storms raked suburban Philadelphia and parts of New Jersey yesterday afternoon and last night. Heavy rain, hail, lightning, and high winds caused floods, power blackouts, fires, and tree damage." "Chester County received a double punch yesterday with a series of storms in the afternoon, and another sequence last night. The first storms bounced around the county beginning about 3 PM, lasting until 5 PM. Torrential rains flooded some areas and hailstones as big as marbles were reported." "Lightning played havoc with the fire signal board at West Whiteland Fire Co. in Exton and firemen were kept busy checking alarms as the board flashed false signals." "At 2:30 PM the storm concentrated in the western portion of the county and lightning touched off a $100,000.00 fire at the Parkesburg Dress Co." "In the afternoon storm a transformer caught fire at the Milprint, Inc., packaging manufacturing company in Downingtown. The fire was confined to the transformer, which apparently had been struck by lightning." "In New Jersey an estimated 14,000 homes and businesses were without electrical power for varying periods of time ranging from 30 minutes to five hours." "The Public Service Electric & Gas Co. called the storm "one of the most intensive electrical storms in recent years." "Hardest hit were Cherry Hill, Mt. Laurel, and Evesham townships, where Public Service said some 7,000 customers were without electrical service." "About 4,000 homes and businesses were affected in Burlington, Willingboro, and Beverly." "The five hour blackout was in Bellmawr. Other areas without power for almost as long were the Black Horse and White Horse communities of Somerdale * Bulletin, News, Inquirer 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 128 of 220 Page Two 6-29-66 P2 and Magnolia." "In Brick Township, Ocean County, the storm caused flooding and power failures and one house fire." "The Ocean County police and fire radio system was knocked out by lightning. At least six homes were reported struck by lightning in nearby Point Pleasant." "A lightning bolt struck the main police antennae on top of the Seaside Park borough hall and blew out the police and fire department radios." (Note: As I pointed out on the July, 1965, Jack McKinney Show here in Phila., my favorite targets to which I assign lightning hits...are police station towers, fire station towers, radio and TV station towers.) "Lighting struck the home of Carl Belsatti of Willow Grove." "Firemen were called to St. Anne's Episcopal Church in Abington where lightning had struck and started a fire in the steeple." "About 900 homesin the Highland Park and Twin Oak sections of Levittown were without electricity for an hour after lightning struck a transformer near Heartwood road." "In Gloucester township a lightning bolt struck near the house of John Kemmler who was sitting on the patio with his wife. The bolt's shock temporarily paralyzed Kemmler's right arm, and stunned Mrs. Kemmler." "Another lightning bolt shattered a brick chimney at the home of D. D. Porterelli, Bellmawr." "Lightning started a fire in a wooded area near the Berlin, N.J. State Police Barracks." "Fire swept the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Olmstead, West Goshen Township, after a bolt of lightning struck a television set in the living room. The blaze completely destroyed the interior of the house and the furnishings." So, not only did I bring the lightning bolts onto Phila., as I said I would, but the tremendous action also attacked the nearby parts of N.J. adjoining Phila. Remember, George, lightning is my trademark. What was my prediction again? "Should be an extraordinary amount of lightning striking all around." Well, I'd like to hear Mr. Dunne rebut the results. They don't call me The Rainmaker for nothing. So, you have further proof added on to a mountain of proof, of the kind of power the Si's back me up with! P K Man (Owens) Owens 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 129 of 220 Wed., June 29, 1966 Lornie Rick Please get copies of LA papers for yesterday and today...Tuesday and Wednesday...and send me all clippings pertaining to the California earthquake. THIS IS IMPORTANT. I predicted it, 11 days ago, in a letter to George (you have a copy, Nov. 17 ltr.) but way over here they just barely mentioned it as being the "worst earthquake California has had in 11 years." Nothing else ...that's all they said. And I need more on it for my file. Matter of fact...any time you see anything you know relates to my file, please send clippings on it. You can help Daddy that way. So...send me the clips, okay? Am very very busy on all sorts of PK projects right now. Especially hurricane work. Love, Dad Owens === Page 130 of 220 Rick - why not write Rex Anderson in San Gabriel? P.S. From July 1 to July 18 I'm laid off. Company shuts down each time this year. Two weeks, and nothing to do with it! July 1, 1966 Dear Lornie and Rick Got lucky today, got a little time, and access to a typewriter. Just in the long shot you might want to improve yourself, enclosed is the word-formula I worked up in Ft. Worth, and which worked like a miracle with my pupils there, combined with auto-hyp. You have to use auto-hyp first, close your eyes, tell yourself what you will read out loud will react on you with all the power of Nature... then open your eyes and read it to yourself out loud. Do this once a day, and zowie...watch your smoke! After you read it, don't forget to waken yourself and snap fingers. Just in case you've forgotten the routine. Be sure and send back what I ask you to send back, always. Here's my plan for the Sota Church. Church of Sota (Secrets of the Ages) Healing and New Life -The Science of the Soul- Start legal church in L.A., lawyers Neiman and Soroty. Find and develop Sota Masters...Master Healers...which I'll teach to use PK, and they'll become Church Heads. But there will be few. Each member of the Sota Church will be assigned to a Master...for their individual needs to be taken care of, and to progress. (My Ft. Worth work, etc.) SOTA LIBRARY - Books pertaining to our teachings and training. Also complete library on psychic phenomena, hypnosis, etc. SOTA HOSPITAL - Medical Doctors, Psychologists, and Sota Masters. THE SOTA SLEEP - under medical framework. If Sota member wishes to withdraw from the world temporarily, let them...to avoid a psychosis or suicide, and use Sota techs on them while they sleep. SOTA RESEARCH FOUNDATION - research on UFO's, parapsych, the soul, healing, etc. SOTA HAVEN - will take care of any pregnant mother, no questions asked, delivery of child, and find job afterward for her, plus way to take care of her baby. Complete follow up, no charges for anything. SOTA LODGE - Headquarters and Retreat for the few Masters...each having a small, individual, comfortable cottage. A woodsy place for creative work and thinking, and teaching. SOTA COLLEGE - Classes: Secrets of the Ages Super Memory Trachtenberg Math === Page 131 of 220 7/1/66 p2 Hyp and Auto-hyp techs. ESP techs and usages. Languages (Berlitz method.) Oil painting. Creative writing. Cooking Sewing Music Secretarial Skill: Typing, shorthand, spelling. (The Masters will each be taught individually. It will be a tedious job, and I'm the only one who can do it.) Each Master will be made a Dr. of Philosophy and Dr. of the Soul, and will be issued a special beautiful ring, Sota Ring made out of copper and precious stones. Each Member of the Sotas will be issued a Sota talisman, PK'd, for wear around the neck. There will be a special Lake...PK'd...like Lourdes...will work like Lourdes. There will be special rooms, PK'd for special effects. Remember the PK grows and grows and becomes more powerful...so the PK in the room will take effect on any who go into the room (like the curses on the old Egyptian tombs which took effect long long after all the people vanished, on the British and Americans who plundered the tombs...) except our PK will be constructive and useful, not destructive, in these rooms. And so on. Our motto will be: "And It Came To Pass." Because that's what PK work does...it comes to pass...earthquakes, hurricanes, lightning attacks, etc etc. Brenda Sue, Mrs. White in Ft. Worth...it came to pass that they lived, when they should have died, according to all medical rules. PK made the difference. In case you have forgotten, here are the names of the PK Angels: Lornie...Sahda Rick...Veroque (Ver-o-ka) Ted...Sonyn Martha...Treya Beau...Tranya Well, must bing off now. Be good little chilluns, and mind momma. You know, of all the people I have known, and know, there are only two, besides you two kids, who could qualify to become a Sota Master after PK teaching...Don something in Seattle, and Pat. But neither of them would want to...having their own lives to lead. It is going to be a problem to find a dedicated person, wanting to learn all the PK secrets, and being RIGHT for it. Amar wouldn't do, Lornie, she's too set in her ways. Love, Dad 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 132 of 220 Will appreciate additional information, if available. Thanks. 7/1/66 S. B.

July 2, 1966 Dear Rick: It was good to hear from you. You type very good. Am proud of you. Practice a lot. Enclosed is my ad in Fate. Soon will have two ads. It's slow, not much action. Just have 7 members thus far. Beau and Martha are fine. If you want to learn to play the guitar real good, then you will wind up playing the guitar real good. Nothing will stop you. And am sure you will make a record, if you keep at it. If I had the time to practice, and the money, I would go into pro pocket championship pool, Rick. I have a genius for it. But... dreary dull everyday plodding work, plus my PK work, rules it out, for now. I had a most wonderful Father's Day. Beau and Martha both gave me cards and presents...fine sport shirt, and new handkerchiefs. Martha worked for the money, to get it, bless her heart. Lornie sent me a dandy card she made herself, and a dollar for an ice-cream party for us...which we had on her. That was it. You will find a girl you like, honey. You will find many you like. As time goes on. There are millions of girls in the world, and there are thousands who would suit you fine...and you'll start clicking with them, finding them, as you go along. Be patient. Everything happens in good time. At one time, long ago, the girls I liked didn't like me, and vice versa...but as time went on things straightened out and I learned how to make the girls who didn't like me, like me. It was because they didn't know, or understand me, that they didn't like me. They got a wrong impression. I'd show them card tricks, read their palm or cards, etc., and after that we made friends. Some girls who don't like you, aren't worth making friends with. Some are. You have to learn to sort them out. You will. The woods of Pennsylvania are beautiful, I happen to know...but we haven't been out of downtown Phila. because we haven't a car, or money to go out. But things will change. Love, your pal..........

Not only did they ca of over a half billion dollars in planes - but AF made the infinitely stupid booboo of allowin for a publicity stunt for a private company! last week's smashing blow will be the after-rea authorities toward this AF mistake. A-Sub Nautilus, Carrier Collide In the Atlantic Norfolk, Va., Nov. 10--(AP)--The Navy said today that the nuclear-powered submarine Nautilus had collided with the aircraft carrier Essex while submerged in the Atlantic Ocean about 360 miles east of Morehead City, N. C. Naval authorities said the ac- SHIP SUB week rely and Now I will do the U.S. Govt. a good turn - and warn it to call off the fleet exercises ("Beach Time") involving 40 ships, in the Atlantic and Caribbean, June 13-26. Why? (1) You will remember I warned the Govt. last year, when it held fleet exercises off the Pacific coast. They went ahead - and shot a missile at a drone. The missile ignored the drone and bullseyed on a carrier plane up in the sky somewhere else, destroying plane and pilot. (There were other accidents there, too). (2) I have already warned that the Atlantic now is dangerous for ships, subs, planes - because the Si's are using our Atlantic area to correct our long long drought condition for us. (3) I have loaded the Caribbean area with PK to make hurricanes to bring up the East Coast. (Am working on other June Hurricanes.) (4) On June 5 I made a written prediction to Mr. and Mrs. Hansell, 29 S. Wyoming, Ardmore, Pa., that (1) Si's will bring about a nuclear sub catastrophe, or carrier catastrophe - i.e., a naval catastrophe, involving U.S. vessels, by September, 1966. (2) Si's will deal our "seat of government" (The White House, Capitol Hill) a serious blow, by Sept., 1966. (These two effects to further demonstrate their powers to humans, and to prove their much-ridiculed reality...marsh gas, etc. (5) Ship-sub-plane PK has been in effect, growing, for over a year now. (6) These vessels will be within the reach of deadly "Electro" - area PK'd from Miami to Jacksonville. Put this all together, and these ships will be holding exercises in very deadly danger! So, let the U.S. Govt. be warned in advance. Just remember Needles Military Exercises; U.S./Spain Military Exercises; N.C./S.C. Military Exercises - and what happened to them. === Page 135 of 220 In the Radar Plane with 19 Down at Sea NANTUCKET, Mass.

The SI's have communicated they will use all their power to see that Johnson & Company lose everything at voting time...at the polls..if indeed they reach that point... because Johnson has rejected their friendly approach. Saw Sec. of Air Force Herald Brown on TV...I would sum him up as a sneaky, two-faced idiot. He and McNamara make a perfect pair. My God!! Where do we get these "top men?" In closing...the SI's warn...the recent stock market clobbering was no accident. You are referred to my letter of June 24, 1965..."unless the U.S. Govt. recognizes it (SI's) agent, P K Man, publicly, and helps P K Man...then Nature (SI's) will wreck and demolish the U.S. economy...will ruin the stock market. It will make the 1929 stock market crash seem like a picnic by comparison." That's what will happen ahead, George, if the SI's continue to be ridiculed and ignored. The U.S. Govt. has paid a terrible price already, by ignoring the SI's...should this stupidly continue? P K Man (Owens) Just remember .......... N.C./S.C. Military Exercises - and what happened to them. 08/07/2025 15:39 === Page 137 of 220 Rick Kids!! Thanks for those quakeclips. We did not get that info here!! Dad Lorne Monday, July 11, 1966 Mr. George Clark CIA Dear George: The St's warn...of an imminent major happening in Europe which will both shock and amaze the U.S. - and confront us with another major crisis to try and cope with. I warned you in my letters of Feb. 18, 1965, and July 17, 1965, that the Russians had some new weapons which we didn't know about that made them confident of having a big edge over us in case of war. Yesterday one of those weapons was exposed through the newspapers to the U.S. - a missile that can alter its direction. BUT I wrote the U.S. Govt. long ago that the Russ had this missile. I wrote you and told you that Russia had a missile that they could shoot, alter its direction, and bring around at us from a Latin American country...and then who could we pin the blame on. One of their other dandy new weapons they are secretly showing De Gaulle, etc., to persuade our allies it would be far better to switch alliances than to fight. Probably is why Wilson is being invited to Moscow. The U.S. is losing its friends - weak though they be - and the U.S. is slowly getting snookered. We haven't had a good idea in a carload for much too long a time. We've been butting heads with Russia, then with China and Asia - and now we're butting heads with our allies and neutrals. Our own country is butting its head against the wall in its spare time, being divided as it is with colored vs whites, anti-war demonstrators, etc. As I warned you some time ago, things will go from worse to worse to worser - unless the U.S. joins the UFO's. They alone can unravel the whole === Page 138 of 220 ...and that is exactly what happened...the East Coast "fireball" and Hurricane Alma mess and put things right. 7-11-66 P2 This letter should have gone to you yesterday...but due to no stamps, and no access to typewriter...had to be delayed a day. Good thing nothing really hot was on to warn about, with the exception of the European blowup ahead. The Si's have finally given me a definition for what I have been calling "PK" all this time. They say to tell you that "PK" means "Other Dimensional Effects", which means simply that they have been creating the phenomena from their own dimension to take effect in our dimension. Remember I told you the Si's were going to PK all vehicles? After that there was the terrible ship strike that paralyzed England's shipping; the great hassle over "unsafe" new cars that sort of bent the auto business and almost unhinged the stock market; last week's auto strike; and the present airplane strike...its biggest in history. All vehicles. Plus yea many ship collisions, burnings; auto accidents; plane wrecks; train derailments; etc. The Si's are near this area, and are about to make a move that will bring them to public notice again, just in case people are forgetting them. Something startling. They are getting restless because I am not getting anywhere with the U.S. Government. That bodes ill for the U.S. Govt., I know from experience. I direct your attention to my letter of Oct. 24, 1964...the idea therein is still a good one. Incidentaly...another hit. My ltr. to you of January 23, 1965: "I am, therefore, concentrating more deadly PK on Castro...am amazed nothing has happened to him...he is the only one I can remember to resist the PK effects, unless they have a double who has taken his place." Phila. Inquirer, 6/20/66 08/07/2025 15 === Page 139 of 220 7/11/66 p3 Monday, July 11, 1966 2 Mr. George Clark "CASTRO REPORTED SICK IN EUROPE" - "Miami, Fla. June 20 (AP)-An American anti-Castro organization said Monday that it has been informed from inside Cuba that Fidel Castro is undergoing medical treatment in the Soviet Union or Czechoslovakia and that a double is taking his place in Havana...the committee said that Castro had undergone electroshock mental treatments for three weeks in Havana. Bethel, executive secretary of the committee, said Castro has used doubles more than once in the past several years." So, George, it seems that perhaps my PK did get to the target...and my hunch was certainly rought about Castro using a double. When I "hit" Castro with PK, I glued a magnet onto his face, on a picture, and combined it with my usual PK practice. It is interesting that his trouble is mental. The magnet is still there. You know, after all of my success in predictions...the U.S. Govt. should be beating down my door to utilize my services in this capacity alone. DO YOU REALIZE....what I have accomplished these past several months? (1) Predicted A UFO would fly over Philadelphia and be seen by all within === Page 140 of 220 YOU REALIZE..........what I have accomplished these past several months: 1) Predicted A UFO would fly over Philadelphia and be seen by all within a few days...and that is exactly what happened...the East Coast "fireball". (2) Predicted an early hurricane, within a few days...and Hurricane Alma appeared in six days. (3) Predicted big earthquake in California in the "near future"...and they then had the strongest quake in eleven years within two weeks, plus two other big quakes on top of it. (4) Predicted that Philadelphia would be attacked by violent lightning attacks "in the near future"...and it has had three such storms shortly afterward. (5) Predicted the Commies would launch an "imminent" attack on our fleet at Viet Nam. It was imminent. They struck with torpedo boats within two days after my warning. (And that was just the prelude to the symphony.) In other words...my information has been such that I feel quite safe in saying no other human being in this world could have duplicated it...and no intelligence service of this or any other government could have duplicated it. Consider the variety of the predictions. Why is why I think the U.S. Government must have some wheels missing...not to utilize my services. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 141 of 220 Lorne Rick (This does not apply to you two.) Date: 7/19/66 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: The Si's have decided that (1) The U.S. Govt. is not cooperating with them, and (2) Their representative, P K Man, has not been treated so well. (Was called a "psycho" yesterday on a radio show, over the air; cannot get written confirmation of wonderful predictions of major events made beforehand; cannot get financial help from any source to meet the Si's wishes, etc.) Therefore, say the Si's, the time is over for little miracles...like telling the U.S. Government of a Red attack on warships two days before the attack came; calling earthquakes and hurricanes before they happen, etc. Obviously, they tell me, something must be done on a larger scale to convince those who insult me, and do not cooperate with me. They are going to cause a series of smashing blows, catastrophes, the entire length and breadth of the U.S., and this will be done in the form of a huge "X". See crude drawing below. To further prove this is all real, and that I am speaking for them...they will make "public appearances" in various places (good enough to make the newspapers) as a signature of their own, to this document. They will undertake this action beginning September 1, 1966, if P K Man has not been given cooperation by that time as per the Si's wishes, and signed confirmations have not been given him. P K Man Owens ---------- P.S. THIS IS IMPORTANT. A year ago Zachow, a scientist, told me I was wasting my time and money...that the U.S. Govt. was deaf, dumb and blind to my work. Then I didn't believe him. Now I do. I have proven my connection with the Si's; made astounding predictions ahead of time; and so on. Yet I have not been approached by the Govt.; have not been helped; have not been encouraged - have, in fact, worked in a vacuum under great hardships the while. So now...I quit. I have yet to notify the Si's, and do not know how they will feel. But from now on the Govt. will not know what the Si's are up to...will not know when the Reds are going to strike at our warships, or put more planes into the air against us. Everything from now on will come as a complete surprise to the U.S. Govt. without a P K Man advance tipoff, good or bad. And I guess that's the way the Govt. wants it. So long, you silent people out there...... 08/07/2025 16:02 === Page 142 of 220 August 2, 1966, Tuesday P.S. About the only really safe place to be - considering drought, negro riots, polluted air, polluted water, enemy attacks on our 3 coasts - is high north country, near Canada, mid - U.S. Dear Lornie: Thank you very much for writing the letter. I thought perhaps you'd entered a monastery somewhere and wouldn't be out again for ten years. You are right not to worry about your grades. Just do the best you can do, when going to school, learn all that you can...especially the things you are interested in...remember that lots of the teachers are stupid, neurotic wrecks, and they do play favorites...and if your grades are low, then you have the best attitude about it. If you're not figuring on being a nuclear physicist (that dam word I always spell wrong) or like that...then why worry? Just be sure and get your diploma, then toddle off to the Beauty School with the $600 you've saved out of your weekly allowance, and all is well. Why, just think of those heads of hair you can run your fingers through and tie in knots, if they fuss at you. When I think of all the chaos and carnage you can commit on the heads of innocent citizens...why, the scope is limitless! (ha ha - it's a joke.) Actually, in all seriousness, I should think you would be a Champion Hair Dresser, Beautician, or whatever they call it. You are creative...you have quick little hands...and you are very intelligent. So you will do fine. However, let's don't cross any bridges. By the time you get out of High School you just might decide to be a Fireman, or run for Governor, or something like that. Teenagers are notoriously fickle about deciding what they are really going to do. I just hope you don't get out of H.S. then decide what you really want to do is go to college! So, Rick got a surfboard. All he needs now is a loaded .45 automatic. Yes, you had ought to write Martha personal letters, addressed to her. I know she will answer them. Glad you saw "Mice and Men." You see my point, then. What on earth will you do without a phone? You'll get constipation of the conversation, kid. If you get too frustrated...get one of these toy phones in the dime store and sit in your room and make up phone calls to your girl friends and talk away. That's what Beau does. Have you ever taken all my "George" copies and put them in date order in folders, and read them? If not, why not? Your dad has done something no other human being has done since the time of Moses! I have been literally doing miracles! And you two numbnoses do not even seem to realize it. Two other top govt. agencies besides NASA and CIA have recently spent hours with me, going over my material. I can tell you, one of them is not really govt., although made up of top govt. men...NICAP, described in the back of the flying saucer book I sent you to read. The other agency I won't name...but if you put the initials together, you're hissing. One thing for sure...they weren't impressed by our tiny apartment! If you can, get away from the coast. The U.S. coastal areas are going to be destroyed...devastated...one of these days. Love - Dad === Page 143 of 220 Tuesday, August 2, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: The Si's have an important message for the U.S. Govt., but nobody now to give it to...since I have cut out contacting CIA, NASA, etc. They have given me much information the past few days, which I won't pass on until the Govt. cooperates with me, or does something constructive. However, this much I had better pass on, to NICAP. The Si's have monitored the Russ "fishing boat" activities on our coasts, and they warn the U.S. of GREAT DANGER. The Russ have, under the pretense of having fishing vessels present on our coastal waters...dropped a weapon down into the waters which we do not have. This is a remote-controlled nuclear device which, when activated, will travel up and out of the water like a Polaris missile out onto our land areas and explode...thus our radar and defense warning set-up will have no warning, since these do not rise high into the air, then come down. The Russ idea is, when they attack, for these special devices to wipe out our three coasts...East, West, and Southern. The Si's say the Russ build these contraptions into a fishing vessel, sail the vessel to our shores, sink the vessel...at which time a mechanism separates the bomb and launcher from the rest of the vessel. The device under the water is hard to see because the Russ camouflage the top of it in a dark, scalloped design. PK Man (Owens) PK Man (Owens) === Page 144 of 220 8/2/66 P2 P.S. The Si's point out that this coastal attack method, plus the Trojan Horse method of planting portable nuclear devices in all of our major cities...would eliminate the necessity for missiles fired from Russia and give us no warning whatsoever. What the Si's recommend: Advertise once a month, in all newspapers over the land, that any enemy agent...foreign agent...who will call the following phone number -- and give any information whatever to the U.S. Govt. relating to enemy attack upon the U.S., i.e. which threatens the security of the U.S. - such as telling the U.S. Govt. of any nuclear devices which might be set up in our cities, or secret bacteriological devices, etc. will get the following reward: $25,000 a year for the rest of your life and complete safety and security, plus a home, for yourself and family. And spell it out and make it simple so he or she will understand: If you, Agent of some other country, show us anything, or prove to us, that there is anything in or near our country which might be a threat...you get this wonderful reward. (Or just offer a flat million dollars...but I think the yearly amount would make more sense, for a family man.) The Si's stress this should be done at once, as they happen to know of some weak agents who might just walk in and tell the U.S. Govt. what, when, and where. As for the Speck killing, and the Whitman killing...I can tell you right now the close proximity of UFO's will have a magnetic effect on the minds of humans...and since UFO's were seen not too long ago in the Austin area, I do believe this is what happened. Their nearness changed Whitman's mind, electrically. Something to think about. P K Man (Owens) === Page 145 of 220 Wednesday, August 3, 1966 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: Another great prediction has come to pass! And this one makes you blink! My letter to you of July 11, 1966: "The Si's are near this area, and are about to make a move that will bring them to public notice again, just in case people are forgetting them. Something startling. They are getting restless because I am not getting anywhere with the U. S. Government. That bodes ill for the U.S. Govt., I know from experience." If you read your newspapers today...you read where a UFO landed in front of a group of people in Erie, Pennsylvania, last night...and a creature six feet tall, with head and shoulders but just a blob from there on down...moved to within five feet of the group, in plain sight! To top it off, it left a claw print (picture of it in the newspaper). The group was scared out of their wits, and the girl who tried to describe the creature was hysterical with fear. Makes you think, George. I'm sure this isn't a figment of my imagination. P K Man (Owens) $Θ$ $ℇ$ This UFO creature walked into Lake Erie! Leaving clear tracks. 08/07/2025 16:02 === Page 146 of 220 Monday, August 8, 1966 Dear Lornie and Rick: I hope you are both well and happy. Had a visit not long ago from some Secret Service men. Friendly visit, in answer to my letters to the President. They were very much interested in some ideas I had sent. Also, am now being evaluated and analyzed (my work with the Si's is, that is) by a group of General Electric scientists. They think so highly of my work that they just gave me a signed confirmation on a number of my predictions-before-the-events...and they just made me a present of a glistening, brand new Czech portable typewriter of my own. I have had one 3-hour session with them, and one 4½ hour session with them...everything taken down on tape recorder. And these are for-real SCIENTISTS. They say they know I am getting results, but they don't understand how...and they want to help me, scientifically. Am having an awful time at work. Some psychotic woman, the sister of the brothers who own the business...rides me, every day, sadistically. Follows me around calling me jerk and dope, and asking me why I do not make it rain inside the office. She's nuttier than a fruit cake, but mean-nutty. I would quit in a minute to get away from her, if there was anything else to go to. But there isn't in this hell-town. And no way to get out of the town. I told you this Company fined me $55.00 for missing one day to be on the radio. It has put Martha and I behind about six weeks in paying bills, etc., and we hardly eat right, what with the two-week layoff they gave everybody without pay...with no warning. Well, enough sunshine and light. Write once every Christmas and tell me what's going on. Love and Kisses, Dad 08/07/2025 16:02 === Page 147 of 220 Copy - Pat + Kids Sunday, August 21, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swakk, C.S.C.A.R. I called you yesterday afternoon at 2:30, but you were not there, so I left the following message for you with the girl there...whom I took to be your secretary: I told you last week that the Si's were going to do their best to destroy Luob's (Lunar Orbiter I) mission of taking pics of the moon. I sent you the crude map of what the Si's revealed to me of their ODE methods of attack on Luob. The Si's were successful in causing a malfunction in Luob the day it was to go up...but it was caught in time (seven minutes to blastoff) and the shoot was postponed while they fixed it. Once up, the Si's managed to keep Luob from seeing Canopus. So NASA improvised and put Luob's eye on the Moon, instead of Canopus. So the Si's dropped that method attack (and then Luob could see Canopus) and decided to go after the camera in Luob. The Si's thought there was one camera, and so did I. So they blocked the main camera, the high-resolution camera...which success of the mission depended on. But then yesterday I read that there were two cameras...and NASA would try to use the secondary medium-resolution camera. The Si's immediately directed me to a public phone, to call you and tell you they would now go after the other camera, to block it off...and thus stop the Luob mission in its tracks. Today I don't know if they have accomplished it or not, but their word has been true-blue thus far in every respect. Please refer to my letter to you of August 9: "The Si's...will hit Luob with ODE power-force to force it into a wrong climb or orbit." Now let me quote the local newspaper Thursday, 8/18: "Experts said there were unexplained changes in the spacecraft's orbit of the moon..." "All we can say pending detailed studies is that something is influencing the orbit we can't explain," scientist Edmund Brummer, of NASA, said yesterday. (8/17)" Did I, or did I not, call that correctly? Now I direct your attention to my same letter to you: "The Si's will hit Luob with ODE lasers, causing the metals inside to crystallize and break at the wrong time, etc." Now I quote from Friday's local paper: "Something apparently happened to the camera's high resolution system after the first frame was taken." In other words, the first frame took a good picture...then the camera broke. Following pictures were a mess. Now, I told you over the phone that the Si's were going to use a "sponge" ODE technique, to block and confuse communication signals to and from earth to Luob. I quote the Friday N.Y. Times: "The only problems that have been encountered so far appeared to be minor - a faulty transistor in an electric power system and some strange fluctuations in the communications signal." "Some interference in ground transmission, they concluded had accounted for the poor quality of the initial reproductions over television. (Let me point out that the only good picture was received in Spain...the Si's and I didn't know Spain was even in it...but Pasadena, Houston, and Cape K. sure as shooting didn't receive anything worth printing...which was what I told you beforehand would happen! In the same N.Y. Times article: "With its sharpest camera eye mysteriously dimmed, Luob appeared today to be unable to complete successfully its primary mission of taking detailed pictures of potential astronaut landing spots on the moon." Thus, it would seem as of this writing, the Si's have triumphed once again. === Page 148 of 220 8/21/66 p2 Now, Rowland, let's analyze a little. The following are quotes from newspaper articles: "The countdown progressed smoothly Tuesday when suddenly the blockhouse began receiving unintelligible signals from a system..." "As it sped through space, experts at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory here (Pasadena) ordered Orbiter several times to roll and try to locate its programmed reference point, the bright star Canopus. It failed to do so, for reasons not at once learned." "We're not sure what's wrong yet (Friday)" said Jim Martin, Jr., assistant Luob Project Director, "but we found there's a lot of noise in the sensor's electronic system that seems to block out the Canopus signal." "Puzzling Moon Photos a Fluke?... Space scientists were puzzled today over a "marked" difference in the quality of pictures taken... by Luob." "Experts said there were unexplained changes in the spacecraft's orbit of the moon.." "All we can say pending detailed studies is that something is influencing the orbit we can't explain," scientist Edmund Brummer of NASA said yesterday." "Something apparently happened to the camera's high resolution system after the first frame was taken, officials said." So you can see, Rowland, that in conjunction with Luob's flight... there have been a lot of "mysterious"... "puzzling"... "something is influencing the orbit"... something apparently happened to the camera... unintelligible, unexplainable noises interfering with the flight. You're a scientist, Rowland... are you satisfied that something seems to have been at work on Luob, other than NASA's signals from the ground? One thing is for sure... NASA knows it. Now, I refer you to your letter of July 19, where you ask me: "Your July 11 letter indicated the Si's are in the local area and will do something startling. Is there any way that we (you) could get more details on what and when this might be?" As you know by now it happened at Erie, Pa., August 1, when a Si craft landed near a car and people... a creature emerged from the craft, moved to within five feet of the people, then walked into the water out of sight, away from its craft. As far as I know, this has never been done before by Si's in front of people. I have sent to Erie for the write-ups on this, Rowland, and will send them to you this coming week. Thus my prediction was on the nose, right? I couldn't give you any more details because the Si's didn't tell me anything else other than what I gave you. From my file you've copied, see my letter to Mr. Dun, of April 20, 1966: "Therefore, speaking for my UFO friends and their PK power... en garde." Now I quote from a newspaper clipping, August 6: "Hurricane Forecaster Victim of Hitch-Hikers. Miami... The Chief Hurricane Forecaster here, Gordon Dun, was robbed of $25 today by three hitch-hikers who took his car and left him bound with his own clothing in a cemetery. Dun, 61, freed himself, went to a nearby house, where the resident happened to be up at 3 AM practicing his trombone, and called police." En garde, I told him. He wasn't paying attention. I wrote to Kris Kraft, of NASA, also, not long before he had a gun pointed at his head and the trigger pulled, on a plane. The gun didn't go off... and the hitch-hikers didn't harm Dun. === Page 149 of 220 8/21/66 P3 Now let's take up my (Si) control over the world's weather. See my letter to you of July 23, 1966: "Today am going to signal the Si's to activate the four positioned craft (which I call the "Emmy Emma" setup) around the globe. This will cause severe storms, quakes, volcano eruptions, and weather aberrations all over the world in the days and weeks ahead." (I also predicted a hurricane just ahead...which happened...Hurricane Dorothy.) Now, let's see from the paper clips which I have what happened to the world's weather, after that. (Also recall that I phoned you and told you, some time in August, that in order to keep the weather-demonstration going I was activating this Emmy-Emma setup again...and the Si's seemed to do it in a stronger manner than ever before. Remember?) Prediction on July 23. July 24..."Dorothy, the busy season's fourth tropical storm, whipped herself into a hurricane in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean Sunday while another storm, Ella, popped up in the warm tropical Atlantic." July 26..."Planes from the 7th Fleet carrier Oriskany were limited up to nine missions because of Typhoon Ora's presence in the Tonkin Gulf." July 30..."98 Deaths Reported After Rains in Korea...Floods have left 144,000 homeless..." July 31..."Tornadic Winds Strike Aberdeen, South Dakota." July 31..."Village Flooded in Switzerland."

Last week's floods in Czechoslovakia inundated 148,000 acres and caused $35 million in damages." August 3..."Quake Jolts Wide Area of West Pakistan.

Istanbul..More than 500 persons perished Friday in a widely destructive earthquake in eastern Turkey...etc." August 20...Japan..Earthquakes shook towns and cities in eastern and central Hokkaido today, etc." All right, Rowland...since all the above action was not happening before, but did occur after, my prediction re Emmy-Emma...I rest my case on the Si powers with their "Emmy Emma" control. === Page 151 of 220 8/21/66 p5 Let us go on apiece. As you know, I told you weeks ago to get rid of your stocks, because the Si's were going to punish the American economy by attacking the Stock Market...in their own ODE way. August 20..."Stocks Suffer Declines In Every Day of Week. The bears had the action all to themselves last week in the stock market, as the list took its worst plunge in more than four years. On every single day, from Monday to Friday, losses were chalked up. Etc." As you can see, Rowland, some of my predictions hit almost immediately... then even go ahead and extend themselves in time forward. Oh, in reference to the Emmy-Emma section of this letter, see my letter to you of July 24: "Remember I predicted last week my "Emmy Emma" technique, signalling the 4 Si's positioned around the world, to change the world's timing and cause storms, quakes, hurricanes, etc? Well, today we got one fat hurricane and another cane in the making...Dorothy and Ella. You see how I can call the shots? Lord only knows what other violent weather aberrations will take place the next few days." Yes, the next few days, and next few weeks.... ---------- See my letter in your file to George, dated July 7, 1966: "Also the Reds are planning a massive air-strike, with the aid of the Russ and Chinese, against saigon and other key military points...to take control of the air away from us. Etc." Since writing that prediction, the Migs have come up and filled the air...attacking our planes...also here is a newspaper clip from the Inquirer, August 16: "Entire Squadron of F-105's Downed In Month. Saigon.."North Vietnamese anti-aircraft defenses have wiped out the equivalent of an entire squadron of 25 U. S. Air Force Thunderchief jet bombers in the last month...Reliable sources said the squadron of 25 planes was shot out of the skies in recent weeks in ones and twos as the North Vietnamese stepped up their defenses against American attacks." Well, Rowland, we'd never lost a squadron of bombers in a month before my prediction. I let that case stand. ---------- Now, see my letter to you of August 13, 1966: "Furthermore, they will sign their signature to this...by making another startling public appearance, as they did recently at Erie. This appearance...will confirm again that they are indeed bringing all this about, and I am their Representative." Now I quote newsclip, August 19, Pittsburgh: "Hundreds Scared By Bright Meteor. A meteor so bright that it cast shadows flashed through the sky over western Pennsylvania and Ohio early on Friday, frightening hundreds of persons. Spokesmen at the Allegheny Observatory and the Buhl Planetarium in Pittsburgh said the meteor was of a brightness measured at minus-six magnitude, "the brightest possible." "It lit up the area like a flashbulb," the spokesman said. Etc." This was no meteor, in my opinion, Rowland. It was the Si's with their signal, in answer to the letter to you. ---------- Now a few notes from the past few days. Last night I was astounded when === Page 152 of 220 8/21/66 p6 while turning the knob on the TV...to dial in a football game, pro, on Channel 9...Bears against Redskins. Only thing is, we've never been able to get anything on Channel 9. Our channels are 3, 6, 10, 12, 17, 29, 48. Then I got another surprise...there was a movie on Channel 5, and yet another program on Channel 4. We can't get those channels. As a scientist...and especially in this sort of thing...how could this happen? Furthermore, Fridaynight, while Martha and I were watching TV...suddenly two antennae with protuberances on their end, appeared at the edge of the TV screen, either inside the set or superimposed on the screen somehow. They were animated, as are the antennae on an insect...moving around as if they were on some unseen head. They extended some 3-4 inches long - couldn't have been any insect. We watched them for a few minutes, then they moved out of sight. Thursday, August 18, three of the four people who work in my office group, were out sick. This was one hell of a coincidence. Even the boss, Cotzen, was out sick...and he was out Friday and Saturday, too. Also on Thursday Martha smelled a bad odor in our apartment that made her sick...and at the same time the odor appeared, our canary bird, Tweety Pie, dropped dead in his cage. Si's have told me that, now that I am oriented toward them, I can see and realize their patterns...where other humans cannot. Look, if your Group is in financial trouble, why not let me help? Let the Group furnish me with $1000 (they could borrow it) and I will rent a small office and teach Autohyp, and pay the Group back double in a year. A 100% return on a small investment. My job ends next Friday, and would be an excellent time to do this. If the Group would loan me $3000, I will return it back double, over a period of 3 years ($2000 a year returned) or make them full partners on the Autohyp operation plus my book returns (because it would enable me to have the time to write the book.) Sincerely, P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 153 of 220 Thursday, August 25, 1966 Dear Lornie: Thank you very much for the two dandy cigars. They gave me several hours of pleasure. Honey, I don't know what you are talking about when you mention my being sued by a radio station. I haven't been. If anybody did sue me, what could they possibly get? Mebbe an empty bird cage. How did you like my producing Hurricane Faith in just four days? (See my letter to you of last week...Friday.) Those men weren't "detectives", Lornie. They are Secret Service men. I had written President Johnson that I had a bright idea for him to use, re his popularity improvement with the people...and these two S.S. men came up to ask what it is. The idea, briefly, is for Johnson to appear on TV with Bob Hope, Groucho Marx, etc., and get some laughs...and some empathy with the U.S. people. He's too grim and bitter. I pointed out what made Will Rogers lovable, and others, too...and it was a sense of humor, and being able to make the people laugh, even in tough times. No. Costs money for the docs to go ahead and study Beau. And we haven't any right now. These two women here who have ridden my back and abused me worse than anyone in my entire life...are really bad, clear through. I never did hit them with PK, though, much as I was tempted. However, the Si's did...they told me they were putting the two in PK bubbles, enclosing the yellow gas, and attaching two poltergeists to each of their backs...and this condition will go on for the rest of their lives. God. Makes me shudder to think of it. They are walking around, enclosed in that bubble from another dimension, and that horrible stuff inside the bubble with them! For the rest of their lives! Anyway, I didn't do it. But I did resign, to get away from them. Got a fine reference from the Boss, who understands. Tomorrow is my last day. We haven't moved yet. No way to do so. We need a jaloppy, and no way to promote one yet. The papers you sent will help me very much, and I love you for it. It is very humorous that the Commies offered me all I need...yet I can't get it from my own Govt. I was tempted to take it, though. But I cannot. This is my own country, and I am staying with it, stupid though it may be at times. Be a good girl, and Martha and Beau and I miss you. Love, Ted.

NEWS # 193 Dead, 123 Missing As Typhoons Rip Japan 9/26/66 TOKYO (UPI) - Japan dug out from its worst storm lashing since 1959 today and officials feared deaths from the two-day pounding by typhoons Ida and Helen would swell to more than 300. Police said 193 persons were confirmed killed and 123 persons were missing and feared dead. The storms sent 100-mile-an-hour winds and torrential rains whipping across the populous Tokyo area, touching off massive mudslides, overturning ships in Tokyo Bay and even washing away a small resort hotel. Ida was the worst of the two and hit in the Tokyo area near famed Mount Fuji. Helen roared across the southernmost island of Kyushu inundating homes under tons of mud. THOUSANDS were left homeless and damage was in the millions of dollars. U. S. military officials said the storm had done from $3 to $5 million damage at the U. S. Atsugi Naval Air Station 20 miles west of Tokyo. About $500,000 in damage to homes and other facilities was reported at Camp Zama and another $300,000 at the Sagami depot - both near Tokyo. Yamanashi Prefecture to the west of Tokyo bore the brunt of Ida's assault. Police said 82 persons were confirmed dead in the prefecture (state) and 94 others were missing. Most of the deaths were caused by landslides. RAIN-LOOSENED rock and mud plummeted down the side of Mount Fuji, killing at least 50 persons in two villages. Some 50 others were missing. Reports said the slides crushed 34 of the 40 houses in one village and 20 of the 96 in the other. At least 14 vessels were reported sunk or capsized in Tokyo Bay and along the nearby coast. One body was recovered and six seamen were reported missing. The death toll from the two storms was the highest in Japan since Sept. 26, 1959, when 5041 persons were killed by Typhoon Kitty.

Unifax 9/28/66 ## New Storm In Caribbean SAN JUAN, P. R. (UPI). - Another tropical storm sprang up today in the wake of Hurricane Inez, which killed five persons in a smash across Guadeloupe and is still rampaging through the Caribbean. The new storm, named Judith, was discovered 650 miles east of the Windward Islands. Forecasters said the new tropical blow had winds of at least 45 MPH, and perhaps stronger. Inez was aiming its mighty 120 MPH punch at the southern shores of the Dominican Republic and Haiti. Weathermen said the severe hurricane passed south of the Virgin Islands and was expected to skirt Puerto Rico, but was lashing the popular resorts with fringe gales. Gusts of 65-70 MPH winds were expected along Puerto Rico's south coast. 08/07/2025 16:12 === Page 156 of 220 Pat & Kids Thursday, August 25, 1966 Mr. Jack McKinney, WCAU Dear Jack: I think you will appreciate this funny letter. You will remember that I sent you a "PK" map not long ago...to the effect that Station WCAU was going to be harassed by electrical disturbances, lightning, etc? Well...this is the funny part. During one of my lightning-specials (storms I predicted to you) about the middle of August, I told Martha, my wife, that I would signal the Si's to direct a lightning strike at WCAU, just to shake up the station. Instead, it hit KYW. Mr. E. Cummings, Chief Engineer, said it hit about 2:50 AM and knocked out that radio station for about four hours. Incidentally, that lightning is indicated on your map. I see that the PK effect is now working. I see by the paper that WCAU somehow managed to lose a signal yesterday...blanking out Arthur Godfrey for twenty minutes...and causing hundreds of people to call to see what was going wrong. That's the way PK works, Jack. Better get used to it. Any other little freakish things like that happening? Personnel out with bumped heads and colds? Machinery breakdowns? Lightning strikes? Be sporting and keep me informed, will you? Incidentally...am working exclusively with a small group of scientists now who are sporting enough to give me confirmations of my predictions when I am right...and call attention to anything I might miss. I called Hurricane Alma in a letter to them last Friday...four days ahead of time. Am mentioning this to let you know I am still wheeling and dealing with ESP. ESP? Well...whatever it is. P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce Street, #33 Phila. P.S. Might interest you to know that I terminate with my present job tomorrow...finis. Got one over there available? Secretary, announcer, writer, janitor, pool player? I challenge you personally to two out of three games of 50 point straight pool...$1 on each game, and time. Ha! Owens === Page 157 of 220 Pat + Kids Sunday night, August 27, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: The UFO's, it seems like, did not take out the medium-camera in Lunar Orbiter. It puzzles me...a miss for me, I guess. Now, I waited to hear from the Si's...right up to the point where they were going to fire that moon craft from the Cape to another point on the globe. (That's why I didn't get a prediction in to you...they didn't contact me as they usually do.) I finally contacted them...and they did not want to touch that shot. They WANTED the shot to go well. Because it was just a "preliminary". They want to chew up the "main event." And so they are waiting...for the main event, to clobber it. They told me to PK-map the Super Titan with 8 satellites...that they would destroy the mission. So I did, and they did. A hit. (Just to keep my records straight...I will have to list that mooncraft test a miss on my books. But it wasn't. It wasn't anything at all.) ---------- Hurricane Faith was following my map (sent you a copy) right down the line...but she got very weak Saturday, and stopped...so I opened the source-boxes and fed her everything she needed. After that she started again, and grew in power again. I have had to correct her course several times. It's sort of like leading a blind man. As of today, in the morning Inquirer, you can see she's pointed dead at the target...Cape K. My job is to see that she stays right on that aim. When the Govt. FINALLY discovers that I can control hurricanes through Si help...perhaps it will listen to reason, and cooperate. ---------- In my files which you copied you will see where the Si's told the CIA they would help them. Well, what isn't there is...the Si's stopped that cold, when CIA didn't help me with confirmations. Now they are just like any other Govt. agency to the Si's. ---------- #75, the "European Happening Will Shock and Amaze U.S."...would seem to be last week's resignation of the three top West German generals which has caused a government crisis...those are the words used by the papers. They also termed it a military crisis. This, coming out of thin air, must have certainly "shocked and amazed" the U.S. Govt. ---------- #88, my "WCAU PK Harassment"... (I showed you my pk map of the station)... the following was in the newspapers Thursday, August 25: "Lost Signal Puts Godfrey Off The Air...Arthur Godfrey went silent for the last 20 minutes of his taped radio show on WCAU yesterday morning because of a telephone line failure. The station played standby music while trying to restore the lost signal from CBS network, without success. Hundreds of phone calls jammed the local switchboard as callers sought to find out why Godfrey was off the air. The Godfrey radio show, normally heard from 10:10 AM to 11, went silent at 10:39. A WCAU spokesman said the station was at the end of a "signal loop" and was apparently the only one to lose the signal..." This, Rowland, is one of the many ways PK attacks occur. At my office last week I was working on the mimeograph machine...and it went dead. The stamp machine broke down. The power on the elevator went dead. The telephone system failed and broke down. This is all PK phenomenon...Si phenomenon. === Page 158 of 220 8/27/66 P2 Now see #36..."Si Warning Re Stock Market." My letter to George Clerk, CIA: "George, please see my letter to you of March 26, 1965.."before closing, Nature has told me to tell the U.S. Govt. that since it has refused to help me, it's agent, then it will damage the Stock Market. Sort of tit for tat. If I must suffer economically whilst trying to lobby for Nature...then Nature will cause the Govt. to suffer." - "Now, Nature has this message for the U.S. Govt. Unless the Govt. recognizes its agent, P K Man, publicly...and helps P K Man to be hired by New Jersey and New York to bring rain to relieve the drought...then Nature will wreck and demolish the U.S. economy...will ruin the Stock Market - it will make 1929 seem like a picnic by comparison." Well, Rowland, "Nature" turned out to be the Si's...and they waited patiently, as is their nature, for the Govt. to cooperate. But it did not. In #82, my letter to you: "Sell your stocks and bonds, friends...the Si's are going to blast the Stock Market, in order to humble this country a bit, and make it harder for the U.S. to keep up wars overseas..." Okay...since that letter what has happened? All hell has broken loose in the Stock Market, that's what. It has gone down, down...and now is in deep trouble. Like a plane in a spin it can't get out of. Here's a Saturday quote from the New York Times: "Erosion on Wall St." "Long Slide In Prices Wearing Down Spirit of the Baffled Stock Salesmen." "The steady sandpapering of stock prices...the market has gone up only one day in the last two weeks...finally is getting under the skin of brokerage-house salesmen. At noon yesterday a customer telephoned his broker and said, "Where are you?" "I'm hiding behind my desk," came the reply in a faltering Harvard accent. "What can I tell my customers?" asked a bewildered salesman, who appeared to be typical of some 35,000 registered representatives working for member firms of the New York Stock Exchange. "To be perfectly honest, you've got to tell them that you don't know what to tell them." At another Wall Street house a secretary wailed: "This is no longer a tight money policy we're seeing. It's a no-money policy." The statistics were fairly grim at the market's close yesterday. The "paper loss" on all Big Board stocks has soared to a $103.7-billion since the market made its historic high on Feb. 9. The Dow-Jones industrial average has tumbled 21.5 per cent...etc" The Si's are causing this grim economical uproar to call attention to the letter mentioned above...which is, after all, their only way of communicating with humans. Their point...the Govt. had dashed well better start cooperating with PK Man at this point...because they can make things much much worse if it doesn't happen. ---------- The "Emmy Emme" jolt was as rough as I told you it would be. The globe is still being battered. Last week there were more earthquakes in various places...thousands of square miles in Texas and New Mexico were flooded...Hurricane Faith sprang up, etc. I quote a paper clip of Sat. "84 Earth Tremors Recorded" Belgrade, Yugoslavia..."The official Yugoslav news agency Tanjug said 84 separate earth tremors have been recorded off the Montenegrin coast at Petrovac-On-The-Sea during the past three weeks." And what do you know, Rowland, somebody OUT THERE is beginning to catch on. Here is a local editorial from the paper a couple of days ago..."TURKISH EARTHQUAKE WARNING. "Although the horror of last Friday's major earthquake was concentrated...if that's the word...over hundreds of square miles in four provinces of eastern Turkey, and the death toll mounting now into the thousands confirms how very major it was, there may also have been a warning implicit in it...for all those persons living near === Page 159 of 220 own "fault lines." .......... On the same day, if not precisely at the same hour, it appears that there were substantial shocks felt from northern Italy all the way to Japan. Buildings fell down on Yugoslavia's Montengrin coast; Tashkent...was hit again - although the Soviets don't say how badly. It does not appear to be any small, isolated phenomenon. The violence of the impact in Turkey seems nearly to have gone "right off the scale." The hundreds of subsequent tremors...could be interpreted as meaning that the shifting of the surface, for whatever reasons, is not finished yet.......... It must seem to many laymen that the incidence of tremors and worse has been more frequent than in the past; with the Turkish experience, perhaps they are becoming more terribly destructive, too." This writer was correct...there was a "warning implicit in it"...but not having anything to do with living near fault lines. And finally even editorial writers are noticing that it doesn't appear to be any small, isolated phenomenon. And the phenomenon are becoming more destructive, as the Govt. refuses to cooperate. Believe me, Rowland, when I tell you...this Govt. vs Si's, with me in the middle as representative...is developing into a classic example of the old saying, "For want of a nail...the battle was lost." The nail being the Govt. setting me up for a year to meet the Si's...and the U.S. with its mounting crises and catastrophes, is fast losing the battle. ---------- This is interesting. See #73. Ltr. to George: "Furthermore, the Reds have feinted at us with torpedo boats from the North shore. The Si's were... to look for an attack upon our warships from the south shores...etc. The Reds are now mulling over a plan to obliterate our fleet, and to take control of the waters surrounding Viet Nam themselves." It is now just happening...although in a bit different way than I thought. They (Reds) have just blown up and sunk a bunch of our ships in the south waters. This is something new. And I was correct in what they were going to do. ---------- In #83, "String of U.S. Disasters" - I have added quite a bit since getting back my files from you. So many, why list them? Terrible, freak accidents in Viet Nam...causing maximum embarrassment to the U.S. Govt. Stock Market going down, down. Etc. ---------- This might not seem important, but believe me it is. Last night I had a vivid dream, and when I woke all I could remember of the dream was that the Si's were telling me to tell the Govt. they mean absolute business on their warning that they will turn loose all ODE forms during September and October, unless the Govt. steps in at this point and cooperates. That's all...I've said it. ---------- The "Asian-type critters" referred to in my letter of August 24, as a "sign" from the Sis...could mean that these creatures were destroyed because they got into the wrong geographical area. A shark...fish out of water...would not have been destroyed if it had stayed in its water home. The Asian leopard...would have been safe in its own jungle. Same with the monkey and boa. The point? The U.S. is as out of place in Asia as the shark was in the cornfield. And the Si's are warning of the U.S. being destroyed in Asia just as the out of place critters were destroyed here. We should stay in our own jungle. ---------- Hard to say what will happen now, friend. We have a quarter, that's all, and I have to mail this. No job prospects. No car. Pretty grim. P K Man (Owens) Owens 08/07/2025 16:12 === Page 160 of 220 Thursday, September 15, 1966 PAT + KIDS Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Something very strange is happening re the Si's, and I don't know what it is. Also, with me. For weeks I haven't cracked a file...after working with my files daily for years. Another thing...the past year or so they have given me notes daily. This has stopped. I know they are up to something, big...but cannot imagine what it might be. Let's recap Gemini Eleven...which, incidentally, I'm putting down as a "miss" in my book. The Si's harassed the take-off beautifully...stymied NASA twice, but finally had to let it go up. They harassed, and stopped, the space-walk and the testing of the power tool (Space repair) and the use of the jet-gun for maneuvering...and then they ceased. This puzzles me, for I know well there is a more than intelligent reason for every little thing they do. I KNOW the Si's were very much in on the Gemini orbit. Of course, they can't destroy the Gemini capsule and astronauts, as they did the Super Titan with the 8 satellites in August, so perhaps this cramps their style. But they did much more on Gemini shots preceding. Bear one thing in mind...because they do not clobber one shot, does not mean they won't clobber the next. Or the next. But the fact remains, they did not, or were not able to, clobber the Gemini Eleven shot...which was brought off excellently by the astronauts and NASA. Now, a prediction has come to pass. See my letter to George of April 13, 1966 (am enclosing a spare copy I had): George, be warned...all ships, planes and subs in the Atlantic will be in deadly danger in the weeks and months ahead...the high waves and wind that just damaged a ship and killed two people were part of it. The Si's are doing something with the weather, using the Atlantic ocean to supply certain things they need to end our East Coast drought...it is going to be deadly dangerous to all forms of life and locomotion in the Atlantic." ALSO...I have a signed prediction made to Zelda Hansell and George Middle, 29 S. Wyoming, Ardmore, Pa., dated June 5, 1966: "The Si's, to demonstrate their powers further to the U.S. Govt. - will bring about a nuclear submarine catastrophe, or aircraft carrier catastrophe - i.e., a naval catastrophe, involving U. S. vessels, within the near future...the above to take place not later than September, 1966..." Well, it wasn't a nuclear sub...I missed on that...and not U.S., but West German (our ally). Today's headline read: "U-Boat Sinks; 21 Aboard." It pointed out that it was the worst submarine disaster since the Thresher went down some years ago. But it was a naval disaster; was in September; was a submarine; and happened in the Atlantic. The Si's are now, I believe, off on a new tack of some sort. They said they would put on a tremendous demonstration of their many powers Sept. and October...and I believe they will. They usually do what they say. But...there is something else now with them, and they won't tell me what it is. Let me say this...if something weird and mysterious happens to one of our top military or political leaders...I mean, top...then I might know what they are up to. Something like...the top man referred to just vanishing Suppose, say, Humphrey or Johnson or Dirkson or (who are our top military men nowadays?...well, one of them) suddenly can't be found anywhere. 08/07/2025 16:20 === Page 161 of 220 08/07/20 Something odd like that...then I would know what new tack they would be on. Perhaps they did not like my files being copied, and feel you are not friendly...that their precious information had fallen into the wrong hands. That might be why they have changed their form of contact with me. I feel they are as close as before, but they are not telling me as much as before. A note on the hurricanes that didn't. I have made the cakes, but they fell flat in the oven. I've produced a lot of what should have been fine canes this year, but they either didn't build up entirely into full canes, or they missed the target. Odd. Not like the two previous years. It is possible the Si's have tired of the usual demos, and will some something else on a larger scale, in time to come. ---------- P K Man (Owens) Owens 4 Dear Barford: 1951, 12 September, Wednesday.

I'll always have lots of happy memories of the sweet little child, Lorrie -- who took her lumps and bumps and laughs with Daddy, everywhere. Your birthday present is something money cannot buy. And there's no other like it. And it's beautiful! I made it. Took hours. It has to crack to be made the way I've invented, but don't worry about the tiny cracks. It's firm. Just treat it like the delicate ceramic work that it is. (Take it off before you punch Rick in the nose.) Love & kisses Dad === Page 163 of 220 Thursday, September 28, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Pat & Kids Pat - show all Si letters to Lonnie & Rick, ok? Confirming my phone call to you this afternoon early...I told you I was working to turn Hurricane Inez north (it's headed West); also told you I was working to produce a second hurricane behind Inez. Well, I came off work at 5:45 and bought a News...and read where a great tropical storm had appeared with Inez in the Atlantic. Enclosed is a rather frightening prediction I made August 25. I told you as you can see on the enclosed photostat (and you have a copy) that I would work for a "one-two" punch...twin hurricanes. Oddly, they developed in the wrong location, the Pacific...and hit Japan. (And there is now a third hur - typhoon, same thing, there. Three hurricane-typhoons in the Pacific within one week's time...and giant Hurricane Inez now ripping up the Atlantic, with Judith building up right behind Inez. On my prediction of August 25 I told you "let's have a Hurricane Party." Within one week we've got four full hurricanes steaming and another one in the making...isn't that a hurricane party? What is so startling...were my words of August 25..."in boxing I liked a one-two punch." See the Phila. News write up..."Double Knockout...map shows paths of Typhoons Ida and Helen, whose one-two punch..." And of course, now we have Inez and Judith for a one-two punch in the Atlantic. I wondered why the Si's weren't kicking up catastrophes and all the various phenomena this month...and asked them...and they told me they were getting their craft into position...to just wait, and it would happen. (My sense of time, and their time, are not the same, and when I say September and October it puts a strain on them because that is not the way they measure time.) Anyway, things have been quiet...and that is when to watch out for the Si's. At least they didn't let Surveyor 2 get away from them. We've been having all kinds of Si phenomena in our apartment the past two weeks, hot and heavy. Strange looking hairy arms appearing on our TV screen, on different programs at different times...plus strange looking antennae that move as if alive...plus strange sounds. Word from OSCAR occasionally...will bring better results from me. Dr. Rhine found at Duke that he got his top results from ESP individuals and groups that were encouraged and rewarded. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 164 of 220 Sunday, October 2, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, Organization of Scientific Research Dear Rowland: As I told you Friday, I was working to change the direction of Hurricane Inez...she was heading West, and for my purposes (of proof) she had to change to North. Well, after tearing up Cuba (see my files re my hitting Cuba and Castro with PK in large amounts) it changed direction...and instead of heading for Mexico, began heading for Florida. But she was very very weak by Saturday night...so I worked to put a lot of PK units in her to make her powerful again...and today, Sunday, radio announced she was growing to hurricane strength again. After all, I have produced the many hurricanes and near-hurricanes I outlined for you on the map I sent you with the ten circles (practically, although am still trying to bring in two more) but I have fallen down in putting them on target. Perhaps I can yet. Now...this is most interesting. The middle of September the Si's told me to make some skull and crossbones rings. I did. Also, the last time I was on radio here, the "Talk of Philadelphia" show, I had drawn a skull and crossbones on a map, intending to warn the listeners of great danger to the U.S. not recognized by our Government...but didn't get the chance to get to it because Ed Harvey cut me off. Now, in the papers Sept. 29 was this article, "Marines Kill 50 Reds In Battle Near DMZ, Find Skull Warning." In short, the Marines found a skull on a pole, as a signal to them from the VC. Since the Si's talk to me a great deal by "signs"...and putting two and two together, I am positive at this time that there is great great danger to the U.S. that we are not aware of...immediate danger. In short, a trap is ready to be sprung on the U.S. Might be a mighty trap against the U.S. in Viet Nam. Or could be directed against the U.S. itself. Anyway, just thought I would warn you. There is a deeper wonder in my mind...if the Si's might mean, they are getting deadlier. Remember, I can't understand everything they send me, perfectly. P K Man (Owens) Owens Kids...remember I told you that a tattoo on a human seems to convince that person's subconscious...and the tattoo comes true in his or her life? Also, a person tends to act out his life according to his or her name. That is a man named "Coward" would tend to be cowardly. Etc. Enclosed are some samples I have taken from the papers to illustrate this. Lornie, I enjoyed your letter, and am glad you appreciate that beautiful ring. Since none of my rings are alike...it's the only one there is. Love, Dad Dad === Page 165 of 220 October 3, 1966, Monday Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Well, I told you Thursday or Friday that I was working to turn Hurricane Inez from going West, to going North, check? -- (ON PHONE) I had to do two things over the weekend...build Inez up to a hurricane again, after she died down to just a storm... then turn her toward Florida. Enclosed is photostat of today's N.Y. Times map of Inez... and you can see for yourself that, although last week she was coming in on Cuba, going West and according to the Weather Bureaus was not supposed to come near the U.S. - she changed direction over the weekend just as I was working for her to do, and shot toward the U.S., just shaving Electro. The paper says Inez's gales and storms are kicking hell out of Electro, but she didn't hit Electro head on. I don't know how much of a miss this is, but it certainly isn't much. I guided Inez 1700 miles in on the target. Not a head on hit, but damn good shooting, nevertheless. Don't you agree? I'm still trying to turn her in left for a head-on hit, because she's alongside...or if she gets out a little, I'll try to repeat Betsy over again. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 166 of 220 IOWA ILL.

OCT. 3, 1966 === Page 167 of 220 10/4/66 p1 Tuesday, October 4, 1966 Mr. Rowlend Swenk, C.S.C.A.R. You have just been in on one of the greatest proofs, speaking for the scientific interest, of the century. Hurricane Inez obeyed me at every twist and turn...and backed up at my command, as did Betsy. AND YOU KNOW THAT I CAUSED HER DIRECTION CHANGES...BECAUSE I TOLD YOU IN ADVANCE OF EACH CHANCE...AND THE CHANCES CAME ABOUT (AS WELL AS MY TELLING YOU OF THEM) IN SPITE OF THE FACT THAT THE MIAMI HURRICANE CENTER, WITH ALL ITS PLANES AND EQUIPMENT...AND THE U.S. WEATHER BUREAU...SAID HURRICANE INEZ WOULD NOT HIT THE U.S! (1) When Hurricane Inez was going West toward Cuba...I called you and told you I would work to turn Inez North toward Florida, and confirmed my call in writing Sept. 28. Local paper, Sept. 30: "Forecasters said that the danger that Florida would be hit 'appears remote at this time'." N.Y. Times, Sept. 29: "The Hurricane Center in Miami said there was only a slight chance that the storm would reach the United States mainland." Local paper, Sept. 30: "Forecasters predicted Inez would turn more to the northwest as it entered eastern Cuba. "THERE IS ONLY A SLIGHT CHANCE THAT HURRICANE INEZ WILL HIT THE U.S. MAINLAND, said Gordon E. Dunn, Chief of the National Hurricane Center at Miami. He predicted that a ridge of pressure to the north of the storm would continue to weaken, allowing Inez to turn to the north and thereby pass far to the east of the mainland. All right. So I was telling you differently than Mr. Dunn. I was telling you that I was working to turn the storm at practically right angles, to ram Florida. I was telling the Si's what I wanted with mental imagery...and making "PK Maps" ...and even contacting Inez directly with Mind, because such storms have an intelligence of their own. I put up a "PK wall" at the end of Cuba, so Inez wouldn't go past it, and like a rail bank shot in pool would go on toward the U.S. Also, since I had heavily PK'd Cuba in 1964...and had done this before...I instructed Inez to kick the daylights out of Castro's Cuba while she was there. She did just that. Then she followed my maps and mental instructions, and the Si's, and the PK wall...and turned at almost a right angle and went for Florida. But she missed by an eyelash. So I put up another PK wall to hold her back...and she stalled, as the weather bureau puts it. At that point I told you (my letter of yesterday, Oct. 3) "I'm still trying to turn her in left for a head-on hit, because she's alongside (Electro)...or if she gets out a little I'll try to repeat Betsy over again (meaning put her in reverse (hurricanes aren't supposed to be able to do that, you know) and sweep her down into Miami like I did Betsy. SHE OBEYED MY MAP AND MENTAL INSTRUCTIONS...AND THE SI'S...PRECISELY. She went into reverse and followed Betsy's track, with a HIT on southern Electro. Of course, she kicked the stuffings out of Nasa's Bahama setup, and also spanked Cape Kennedy good because she was so close. The point of all this? THE SI'S ACTUALLY DID ALL OF THE PHYSICAL WORK WITH INEZ TO SPANK THE U.S. IN ORDER TO GET THE U.S. ATTENTION...AND POINT UP WHAT THEY CAN DO WITH WEATHER CONTROL. They allowed me to call their shots so that it would be on record with humans that this was no "erratic" storm or accident. They brought a big hurricane 1700 miles and put it on target. My hunch about Hurricane Faith was right. They could have rammed the U.S. with it, but it was too destructive, so they 08/07/2025 16:27 === Page 168 of 220 10/4/66 P2 put Faith nose-to-nose with the U.S., scaring hell out of everybody, then let Faith ramble off on a safe path. When the U.S. didn't learn any lesson from it...they brought on Inez. If no lesson is learned from Inez, the Si's will no doubt arrange something stronger. If you think the Hurricane Center and weather experts were not fooled completely by the Si's and my PK work, listen to this: Tonight's local paper, Oct. 4: "RUDE AWAKENING...Many of the two million residents of the "Gold Coast" (Miami) had gone to bed believing they were out of danger. They awoke this morning to the roar of wind and rain...angry winds churned Biscayne Bay into a wild fury...as Inez battered the southeast Florida "Gold Coast" with high winds and tides. Power lines snapped and fell in showers of sparks and debris flew through the air as Inez fell on Miami." On Channel 6 of TV tonight on the news: "Hurricane Inez completely stumped the weather experts, and took one of the most erratic paths of any hurricane on record." Meaning...it went North from Cuba, instead of on west...then backed up and kicked Miami when it should have gone on out to sea. I did this with hurricane after hurricane in 1964, my best year...and with Betsy the following year. Am glad I scored this year in such a clear manner...informing you ahead of each change...so now you can realize what I have been doing. You have actual proof of it. Well, that is that. Done and done. Just for the hell of it am working tonight to stall Inez at Key West and get her up to Cape Kennedy anyway, head on. But she's already done what I wanted her to do...show you, a scientist, how a hurricane can be guided by human intelligence and Si's. It's midnight, and won't be able to mail this until morning...and I'm tired of hurricane work...been at it now for what? almost two weeks? If she stalls and goes up into Cape K, good. If she doesn't, I've made my point to you anyway. I repeat over and over. The United States should take me and my family and respect the Si's wishes and place us with the tools we need where the Si's want...so that they can come down, THEIR WAY IN THEIR OWN TIME, and make a personal meeting with me. Because they know me and I know them...I am not afraid...and no other human being is so prepared. The U.S. Govt. is nuttier than a fruit cake, and you can quote me on that. Of course, it could say the same of me...but I have PROVEN my point, again and again and again, dozens of times...which scarcely makes me a nut. I heard on TV Nasa is planning a series of big shoots in the near future. They'd better clear with the Si's first, or they ARE FLAT OUT OF LUCK AT NASA. With kind regards to you, friend...and your brother scientific researchers.

Note underlined says "Betsy over again." (2) is clipping of October 5 from New York Times. Note in red circled paragraph my effort to turn Inez into Betsy's path...is confirmed by the Times, in the same words. Same page, up at top, on the map...are the two points where I had to "sweat blood" to get Inez to change her course entirely. Remember I telephoned you beforehand before each change of course of Inez, right? Also confirmed by letter. So there's no argument on that, right? Now, before closing on this wonderful hurricane demonstration I have been fortunate enough to give you (courtesy of the Si's) this year, here's a quote from today's Inquirer, 10/6: "Hurricanes don't usually hit Florida and then strike Mexico. But there is nothing usual about Inez. Forecasters, repeatedly confounded by its erratic turns, watched the new course for five hours before announcing an all-clear for South Florida." So you see...even newspaper writers are aware something funny is going on. Hurricanes doing things they aren't supposed to. And one man in the world telling you beforehand...that they are going to.

P K Man (Owens) 08/07/2025 16:27 === Page 171 of 220 October 11, 1966 (Tuesday) Mr. Rowland Swank Organization of Scientific Research. Dear Rowland: Enclosed is a newspaper clipping from last week, sent to me by a very good friend in Connecticut. Also enclosed is my letter to George Clark of Central Intelligence, June 1, 1966. Six months ago my UFO friends appeared in a craft and led a string of police cars along the road. Actually this was about all that appeared in the papers. Then on June 1 the Si's gave me the info to send on to George Clark of CIA. When I received this news clip I got quite a shock. First, it verified my letter to George that the cops had fired on the UFO. This officer in the clip was ordered to do so by Headquarters, but the Si's were in his mind, so perhaps he didn't. But the other cars most likely received the same orders. With stupidity like that, no wonder the Si's are clobbering the Space shots and taking so long to get together with the U.S. Govt. An interesting point of this news clip is...in my letter I warned that a police car and officer would be missing if they shot at the UFO's. In this clip, notice that the officer now is "missing"...and dreams that his police car has vanished! Now, even more astonishing...is the fact that my own symbol was on that car (I use a circle instead of a triangle, but that's the only difference! Therefore...you could say that I am connected with this UFO in a way. Let's review. I was connected with the South Pole UFO, in that I predicted it 5 months in advance. I was connected with the major UFO appearances in 1965, in that I predicted them in advance. I predicted the Wauneque UFO in advance. I predicted the East Coast fireball six days in advance. I predicted the Erie, Pa., UFO in advance. Even more astonishing is the fact that I predicted in advance the details of these UFO appearances. I predicted the South Pole UFO would change the electromagnetic conditions at the Pole, and make the newspapers. I predicted the East Coast fireball would appear over Philadelphia. After that I told CIA (its in the files) that the East Coast UFO would appear again soon and do something different that the UFO's hadn't done before. That's when the Erie, Pa., UFO appeared and the creature approached to within five feet of the people, then walked into the water. So this was a first. I predicted the UFO's would appear near here...but would not come down in Phila. for fear we had a ray like they had...then the Wauneque UFO appeared, with its ray. In other words, I've not only predicted before the UFO's appeared, but what the conditions would be. Enough to identify myself with them. Oh, I left out the Michigan Monster appearance...seen by 16 people. That creature grabbed a woman named "Owens"...my own name. So you can see, at least three times the UFO's have directly connected me with them. South Pole; Michigan Monster and this Ohio UFO with the symbol (mine) painted on the car. It's all in the files you copied, Rowland. Checks out perfectly. The Si's want to reach me. They've tried to point it out every way they could. ---------- P K Man (Owens) Owens 08/07/2025 16:27 === Page 172 of 220 # Flying Saucer Named Floyd Is Man's Eternal Tormentor EDITOR'S NOTE--Last April 17 hundreds of persons in Ohio reported sighting an unidentified flying object. The Air Force said it was a satellite. But whatever it was, his encounter with the phenomenon proved a strange, grim turning point in the life of a deputy sheriff from Ravenna. By JOHN DE GROOT Akron Beacon Journal Staff Writer AKRON, Ohio (AP)--In his ruined world of loneliness and twisted nightmares, Dale Spaur wonders if the chase will ever end. It began six months ago with seven steps to hell and a flying saucer named Floyd. In the predawn hours of a gentle April morning, Spaur, a Portage County sheriff's deputy, chased a flying saucer 86 miles. Now the strange craft is chasing him. And he is hiding from it, a bearded stranger peering past the limp curtains of a tiny motel room in Solon Ohio. He no longer is a deputy sheriff. His marriage is shattered. He has lost 40 pounds. He lives on one bowl of cereal and a sandwich each day. He walks three miles to an $80-a-week painter's job. His motel room costs $60 a week. The court has ordered him to pay his wife $20 a week for the support of his two children. That leaves Dale Spaur exactly nothing. The flying saucer did it. "If I could change all that I have done in my life," he said. "I would change just one thing. And that would be the night we chased that damn thing. That saucer." He spit the word out. Saucer. An obscenity. Others might understand. Four other officers took part in the April drama. Police Chief Gerald Buchert of Mantua saw the craft and photographed it. The pictures turned out badly, an odd fuzzy white thing suspended in blackness. Today, Chief Buchert laughs nervously when he speaks of that night. "I'd rather not talk about it," he says. "It's something that should be forgotten left alone. I saw something, but I dont know what it wa." Special Deputy W. L. Neff rode with Spaur during the chase. He won't talk about it. His wife Jackelyne explains, "I hope I never see him like he was after the chase. He was real white, almost in a state of shock. It was awful. "And people made fun of him afterwards. He never talks about it anymore. Once he told me, 'If that thing landed in my back yard, I wouldn't tell a soul,' He's been through a wringer." Patrolman Frank Panzanella saw the chase end in Conway, Pa., where he works. He saw the craft. Now he is silent. Friends say he had his telephone removed because of calls about that April morning. H. Wayne Huston was a police officer in East Palestine, Ohio. He had worked there seven years. Several months after the saucer passed above him in the night he resigned going to Seattle, Wash., to drive a bus. Huston now goes by Harold W. Huston. He tells you: "Sure I quit because of that thing. People laughed at me. And there was pressure. You couldn't put your finger on it, but the pressure was there. The city officials didn't like police officers chasing flying saucers." Thus the story of the other officers. Three still wear badges, but do not speak of what they saw. Spaur and Huston have turned in their badges. Now Spaur hides in Solon, a fugitive from a flying saucer named Floyd. He cannot escape the strange craft. It remains with him, locked in his mind reappearing in nightly sweating dreams that are a bizarre mixture of reality and fantasy. Of that night: He is driving car 13. Barney Neff is beside him. They are heading east along U.S. 224 between Randolph and Atwater when they spot a red and white 1959 Ford alongside the road. Barney and Dale stop to check it out. The car is filled with walkie-talkies and other radios. A strange emblem is painted on the side. A triangle with a bolt of lightning inside it. Above the emblem is written "Seven steps to hell." 10/11/66 P2 Oct 11. 1966 (Tuesday) 08/07/2025 16:27 === Page 173 of 220 10/11/66 p4 June 1, 1966 George Clark Central Intelligence Dear George: The Si's today gave me some interesting information to pass on. Seems that when they flew near some police cars, in a recent sighting...the stupid police actually fired guns at their craft. (This was not made public...and may even be kept a secret by the officers who committed this colossal blunder.) However, the Si's warn...If they approach in friendly fashion in the future...and are fired upon or attacked in an unfriendly manner...the police will be minus one police car and officers. The Si's will eliminate it, as a lesson to humans. That was pretty damn stupid, George, of those police to do that. P K Man (Owens) === Page 174 of 220 Wednesday, October 12, 1966 P/L/R Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Enclosed is a clipping indicating how optimistic the U.S. Govt. is at the moment..."things are looking up." If so, it is living in a fools paradise. The Si's have been quiet for the past month...because I believe they suspected PK Man might be getting help to meet with them (which of course would cost about $5000 to set up for a year.) If the help materializes, then all will be well and the U.S. Govt. will have just cause to be optimistic, because the Si's will be on their side for a change. If the help does not materialize, then I predict right now a string of terrible catastrophes for the U.S. Govt., starting in the near future (within days or a few weeks). Now, Rowland...I do not know if you recall it or not..but as we were walking outside GE after one of our taping sessions, I told you the Si's were planning to attack the crack U.S. Govt. airplane-stunt teams, as a symbol of their earnestness and because they were mad at the Air Force (Air Force, Navy, Army...to them a plane is a plane is a plane) - well, since that time there have been three devastating crackups of these top flying teams. Today I understand from TV the Air Force ace flyers cracked up at Las Vegas. So I could kick myself for having told you verbally and not writing a letter for my files. As you know, confirmation of my predictions for my files is of the utmost importance to me. Do you remember my telling you that? I did...but wasn't sure if you were paying attention at the time. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 175 of 220 Thursday, Oct. 13, 1966 P/L/R Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: This Sunday the Eagles play the Steelers...and the Eagles have five times the team the Steelers have. Regardless, am going to practice using PK against the Eagles to try and make them lose the game. I did this last year with various pro games...was successful with 20, lost two. The PK does two things, actually...thwarts and frustrates the team hit, and improves the other team's chances tremendously. The Si's are trying to get my "near's hideaway money" and this perhaps could be a way. Hope I get them all this year, and don't fail on two. But come to think on it...that's been about my batting average with rockets, etc., up from the Cape K. If you or one of your scientific investigators would like to drop over Sunday afternoon at game time (1:30). I'll show you how to apply other-dimensional effects onto a football game... silly as it sounds. (Have worked on the Eagles the last two games.) Want it on record that am calling to the Si's to make a big public appearance some time between now and Halloween, inclusive, simply because that's my favorite time of year. (If you hear of anybody throwing a Halloween party, get us invited, will you?) The Si's tell me to pass it on that they are going to pull something very unusual at one of our military bases. Something unfriendly, of course. The U.S. hasn't made friends with them yet. (That's a U.S. base - somewhere in the 48 States. They'll never pinpoint their action for security reasons, obviously.) Keep your fingers crossed...have a chance to obtain a few thou (3) from a party interested in my calling the UFO's down for a meeting. But was supposed to get the money Tuesday, out of State, and haven't heard from them yet. So I guess this will fall through, dammit. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 176 of 220 Saturday, Oct. 15, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: This is later in the day. I have just decided to conduct a beauty of an experiment. Not only am I going to ask the Si's to appear publicly (newspaper writeups) by Halloween...but I am going to ask them to come down over a crowded pro football stadium (hope they can tell the difference between pro and college) and let all the people in the stadium watch them. If I pull it off as I have the numerous other times, it will establish beyond a doubt that I am in communication with the Si's. Right? Now if I can just convince the Si's it isn't a trap. Oh...and let's do it right. When it comes down over the field, the weather should be cloudy and bad...perfect for them to shine a ray out from their UFO, as further proof. All right. Notice the catastrophes that have begun these past few days since this woman double-crossed me? (She told me last Sunday she was going to send the $3,000 on Monday or Tuesday) - Killer blizzards, killer tornados., fires along the California coast. And it's just begun. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 177 of 220 Saturday, October 15, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Enclosed are stats of an article out in the August Fate mag. I have been telling you and the Govt. that the Si's were close. This sighting I hadn't read or heard about until now. Just happened to see it in Fate by accident. The financial help from a woman in Conn. fell through...because she was advised by a "friend" that I was probably just trying to get her money on false pretenses and wanted to go out and have a big time on it. Ha. I got her letter yesterday. She wrote it Tuesday or Wednesday. The Si's have waited to see what would happen...when it didn't happen they have started turning loose catastrophes....blizzards and 80-90 mph winds in the West N/W and killer tornados in the Midwest. An odd thing has been happening...a half dozen times the Si's have told me what was going to occur, but I haven't written to you because somehow it isn't like writing to CIA...then the things have happened and I'm out any chance of confirmation for my files. Wednesday night, for instance, I saw a skull and crossbones on the weather map on TV on the State of Iowa. Thursday morning I almost wrote to you, then decided..what the heck. I never hear from them. Confirmations I don't get much of. Phooey. So last night killer tornados hit that exact spot. This sort of thing has been going on for weeks. One thing I must report. The Si's have stressed it and underscored it. As things are heading now with the U.S. a circle in the U.S. will be absolutely devastated...literally a hole will be, where States are now. Only the Si's can avert this happening. I will draw a map below to illustrate. See my letter of Oct. 12..."If the help does not materialize, then I predict right now a string of terrible catastrophes for the U.S. Govt., starting in the near future (within days or a few weeks.) So...within days you get killer tornados in the Midwest. Real catastrophe there, for starters. ( HOLE ) C A L F FLA PK MAN 08/07/2025 16:27 === Page 178 of 220 Sunday, October 30, 1966 Mr. Joe McGinniss, Sports Writer Dear Mr. McGinniss: I wish you would print this. Today you saw a picture-book demonstration of what PK will do in a game between two relatively evenly-matched teams (sports writers gave the Eagles a 3 point edge). The past two weeks the Steelers and Giants were given many opportunities by the PK system, but those two very weak teams failed completely to capitalize on their edge, and just gave their games away. Today was a different story. With the PK causing numerous pass fumbles, dropped kicks, etc., on the part of the Eagles (even a sure Eagle touchdown erased when the PK took the ball into the crossbars of the goal posts) Washington did not throw away their advantages... capitalized on them... and as most teams do (with PK helping them, capitalizing on their many breaks) the Redskins won by two lengths. In closing, would just like to point out that if the Eagles lost by two touchdowns playing an "equal" team... what will happen when they play better teams than the Redskins, fighting against their opponent as well as against the force of PK? All the Eagles opponents have to do... is play heads up ball, take advantage of the many extra breaks they will have, and not give away any foolish touchdowns. And they will all beat the Eagles. Just like the Redskins just did. H. T. Owens 1114 Spruce St., No. 33 Phila., Pa. Owens === Page 179 of 220 Thursday, Oct. 20, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: This is a note written under pressure of the Si's insistence. As far as I am concerned, since it isn't a prediction or like that...what's the use? But the Si's have been after me for days to write this, so I will. Perhaps the key to the phenomenon of my work for the past two years... lies in my activity in Ft. Worth, Texas, 6-8 years ago. It really started when a giant UFO came down near our car on a dark deserted road in Texas one night (my daughter, Lornie, was with me.) From that time on...things changed. I was teaching auto-hypnosis as a profession...and began to get stunning ideas on how to help and heal people. I set these down in a black leather book. In a few months the book was filled up. Meanwhile I had formed a "Miracles of the Mind" Club, a free training school for persons without the money to buy my wares. But those who joined were top professional people - doctors, lawyers, architects, etc. From these Club meetings I deliberately tested and culled three top ESP people. These 3 out of the hundreds in the Club were the finest in telepathy, clairvoyance, etc. Mr. Eng, a chinaman, was one: Dr. -, a Chiropractor in a nearby suburb (or was it Osteopath?); and Bill - was the third. Now, to get to the point. We had private meetings, and I would hypnotize one of them...and endeavor to send their mind to find and communicate with UFO's. One night Bill did the unusual...his mind came up inside the earth, instead of up in the sky...where there were tremendously intelligent beings living. We talked with these beings through Bill... found out what they ate, how they reproduced, etc. And finally, one of the beings stated IT WAS COMING TO ME. It didn't know how long it would take, BUT IT WOULD GET TO ME. All of my notes on this were lost in my storage, held by Lyon Van & Storage in San Diego few years ago. I SINCERELY BELIEVE IT IS THESE BEINGS THAT HAVE CREATED ALL THE PHENOMENON THESE PAST TWO YEARS...THAT I CALL "THE SI'S"...AND THAT IS THE REASON THEY ARE NOT LIKE OTHER KNOWN UFO FORMS. THEY CAME TO ME. Am sending a copy of this to George Clark, whose organization can check with Mr. Eng in Ft. Worth and find the other two ESP people...if they want to, to get all the details of this. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 180 of 220 Thursday, October 20, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Another excellent "hit". In my file, that you have, see June 29, 1966, letter to George Clark. In it: (1) I warned the U.S. to watch its Fleet in Viet Nam because it was in imminent danger of attack. TWO DAYS LATER NINE North Viet patrol boats zoomed in to attack U.S. Warships. (2) I warned in the same letter that the Reds would fill the air with planes against U.S. forces. This has since come to pass. (3) I warned in the same letter that the Reds would strike from subs around Viet Nam, using small A-bombs against carriers, Saigon, etc. This did not happen. HOWEVER... in yesterday's Phila. News was the following... THE WASHINGTON REPORT... "Red China's Menacing Nuclear Shift"... An ominous intelligence warning on a new military nuclear development in Communist China is high on the list of BRIEF briefing papers prepared for President Johnson to read on his Asian trip. This highly-classified document, seen only by a handful of Johnson Administration officials, could turn out to be as significant as those U-2 photographs taken over Cuba just four years ago this week. The intelligence report... reveals that Peking's atomic installations are being put under the army's direct control on the orders of Defense Minister Marshal Lin Piao... the ascetic Marshal Lin Piao, the Pentagon's best military experts warn, is capable of launching a sneak nuclear attack against the growing U.S. military forces tied down in a relative small area in South Vietnam. SO MY WARNING IN THE SAME REGARD CAME ABOUT FOUR MONTHS EARLIER THAN OUR MILITARY INTELLIGENCE EXPERTS! That entire letter of June 29, has come to pass... except the last paragraph in the P.S. P K Mon (Owens) === Page 181 of 220 October 26, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Enclosed is the prediction I made in June re an aircraft carrier disaster. As you know, yesterday there was such an aircraft disaster in the Bay of Tonkin...the "Oriskany"...33 men killed. This came 30 days later than I expected; from now on am not going to set things down precisely in our time span...simply because the Si's work out of our time span, and neither they nor I can be utterly accurate when it comes to timing these events. Incidentally, both the submarine and the aircraft carrier mentioned in my prediction have come to pass, if you will notice. The Si's have done nothing yet re their statement of "deal our seat of government (The White House and Capitol Hill) a serious blow." Because I predicted the carrier first, and it just happened...then perhaps the next thing will be the second part of the prediction to happen, coming up. They've performed oddly on the football experiment. Two games perfectly; then two games they ignore and let the Eagles win. (Of course, the Girl Scouts could have beat the Steelers and Giants, but I can't alibi...has to either be a hit or a miss.) I do wonder what they are up to. Hope they confine their PK to the football field and don't try to wipe out the team or something on a bus. Whew! The Si's...are ... well, you never know.

Owens (PK Man) (UFO's) The Saucer Intelligences, to demonstrate their powers further to the U.S. Govt. -- will bring about a nuclear submarine catastrophe, or aircraft carrier catastrophe -- i.e., a naval catastrophe, involving United States vessels, within the near future. They will also deal our seat of Government, (the White House and Capitol Hill) a serious blow, in the near future. These happenings have a definite "point" -- to show the U.S. Govt. their (sic) power, and to further confirm their reality. H.T. Owens (PK Man) __________ George B. Middle Jr. __________ Zelda S. Hamill __________ P.S. The above to take place not later than September, 1966 -- and probably much sooner -- Owens. Zelda .. 08/07/2025 16:27 === Page 183 of 220 Thursday, November 3, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Not only did I get my Halloween UFO hit, but now I have some other hits to point out to you. See my letter of October 13: "The Si's tell me to pass it on that they are going to pull something very unusual at one of our military bases. Something unfriendly, of course. The U.S. hasn't made friends with them yet. (That's a U.S. base - somewhere in the 48 states. etc.) The Hit - Yesterday a tremendous roaring, killer fire swept the Camp Pendleton Military base in California and killed four Marines. See my letter of September 4, 1966: "This is what will happen...all sorts of catastrophes and crises will hit the U.S. Govt. in the weeks and months ahead. The Si's plan, as I told you before, to unleash all forms of PK or ODE mechanisms either in multiple patterns or all at once. This will be something to observe! It hasn't been done before. Fires, plane crashes, floods, tornados, hurricanes, riots, high Govt. or Service men removed...etc....it will be a tremendous demonstration of their power." The Hit - Within just the past two or three days there have been great killer fires in California, the worst in 33 years. Almost at the same time we've been hit in the U.S. by a "sneak" storm from Canada that has killed 16 people over the U.S. with violent winds, tornados, snows, etc. All kinds of weather records were broken. And twisters and tornados struck in many places. In my letter to you of October 12, 1966: "If the help does not materialize, then I predict right now a string of terrible catastrophes for the U.S. Govt., starting in the near future (within days or weeks). It's a hit. Finally, you will remember I warned you a short while back that the U.S. would be shocked by something that would happen in Europe? I quote this morning's paper: "Erhard's Fall Is Viewed as a Defeat For U.S." By Anatole Shub, Bonn, West Germany: "It is a hard but unpleasant fact that the collapse of the three year regime of Chancellor Erhard, Foreign Minister Gerhard Schroeder, and Defense Minister Von Hass is being generally interpreted by Germans as a defeat for the United States. It is also more than probable that whatever government now emerges here will be described as...anti-American, etc." So, Rowland, I would seem to be doing very very well. And of course, that UFO showing up right on schedule on Halloween...which was what I was after, for proof....how could you top that? P K Man (Owens) Owens 08/07/2025 16:38 === Page 184 of 220 Nov. 4, Friday, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: It doesn't seem possible...after just having called the UFO out for Halloween verification...but now I have another very big hit. See my letter of July 24, 1966: "**President Johnson will suffer a breakdown in health - or death - in the near future (coming months). This happening will occur in an unusual way, or be brought about by unusual circumstances.**" The hit - It was just announced that Johnson has to go into hospital and have surgery. Now, a little more of interest...in letter to you of October 26, 1966: Incidentally, both the submarine and the aircraft carrier mentioned in my prediction have come to pass, if you will notice. The Si's have done nothing yet re their statement of "deal our seat of government (The White House and Capitol Hill) a serious blow." Because I predicted the carrier first, and it just happened...then perhaps the next thing will be the second part of the prediction to happen, coming up." Next amazing item...just in case of an argument that the West German sub catastrophe would not fulfill my prediction...you now have the Tiru Submarine catastrophe, which is an American submarine. At least the crew were not wiped out...but I can assure you, as an old Navy court reporter, the captain will be disgraced and court-martialled. So that prediction is solid, right? P K Man (Owens) *Owens* === Page 185 of 220 Thursday, November 3, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Not only did I get my Halloween UFO hit, but now I have some other hits to point out to you.

P K Man (Owens) Owens 08/07/2025 16:38 === Page 186 of 220 November 5, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Would you believe...a third aircraft carrier catastrophe since my prediction? (1) Sept. 15, the Oriskany burned up, for all practical purposes. (2) Nov. 2, a helicopter fell onto the deck of the aircraft carrier Guadalcanal at Portsmouth, Virginia, and its blades broke up, shot out like bullets, killing four men and wounding eighteen others. (3) And now yesterday a "flash fire" hit the aircraft carrier Franklin D. Roosevelt, off Viet Nam, killing seven men and injuring others. They can't really explain how any of it happened. Only guess. The Si's are underlining my prediction. Peculiar. I mentioned a sub disaster. After that the West German (our ally) sub sank mysteriously killing all the crew but one. Then the U.S. Sub Tiru thinks its a duck and tries walking on land, and has to yell for help for somebody to come get them. I predicted a blow at the White House...and Johnson amazes everybody by announcing he's going into surgery. Since the Si's heavily underlined the subs and the carriers...then there may be some sort of "underlining" yet to come to the White House blow. That is, something worse than just Johnson going into surgery. It figures, knowing the Si's like I do. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 187 of 220 November 5, 1966 Dear Rick: I was glad to get your letter. Thought maybe you'd turned into a pumpkin. You ask...what have I been doing with PK lately? Ha. My dear boy, you have been getting about three or four letters per week with regard to P K Man and his action. Maybe Lornie is holding out on you, or whoever gets the mail. The scientists here who are evaluating and analysing my work for the past two years told me yesterday that they were extremely "upset" about what I have been doing...Hurricane Inez doing everything it was not supposed to do, and me predicting each contrary move in advance...my asking the Si's to send out a UFO on Halloween to prove I am connected with them (to make the papers) and out it came! I sent all the data to you and Lornie last week. Then, in July I predicted to the Govt. that Johnson would become sick and have a health break-down. The scientists told me yesterday they scoffed at that when they first got it...and now that it has happened, they are again extremely "upset". Not long ago I predicted that the U.S. would have a submarine and aircraft carrier disaster. They've now had two aircraft disasters...no, make that three...and the U.S. submarine "Tiru" just ran itself onto the beach or a reef or someplace mischievous off Australia and had to yell for help for somebody to come get them! Ha ha. Frankly, little buddy, after a quiet spell, I am now hotter than a ceramic oven with PK. Am also using it on the Eagles (no doubt you saw the newspaper writeup I got which I sent you) and the Si's nailed the Eagles last week (tho the gamblers favored the Eagles) and I'm going to have lots of fun with the Eagles this week. The scientists tell me that what I have got...is far too complex for them to comprehend, although they are trying. They are using computers. For instance, I called Swank, the top scientist yesterday at his office at General Electric, and said: "Rowland, I want you to look at that letter of July 24 you have at hand." (Now, for all I knew my records were at his home, because these scientists work at GE and have their hands full there.) But he immediately answered, "Let's see, August, September, July...here it is, handwritten, right?" So (1) How did I know he had hundreds of my Xerox'd copies in front of him on a day I just happened to call? and (2) What's he doing with all my stuff at GE science lab headquarters right in front of him. He said that one of "the group" had already called him yesterday on my hit prediction on Johnson's surgery. I said, "Well, you mean somebody else noticed it besides me?" He said, "Oh, yes, we're following everything you do." He says I am a "hot potato." The U.S. Govt. knows that I am doing all these incredible things; doesn't know how I am doing them; and worse, doesn't know what the hell to do about it! You kiddies can be proud. Your daddy is doing and has been doing what no other person alive in this world can do, or has done, since Moses. I guess you weren't too surprised at the California fires, eh? Had to hit it with red units with intelligence built in to hit a military base. It hit Camp Pendleton. But I regret those Marines. Love, Dad. === Page 188 of 220 November 5, 1966 Dear Lornie: Honey, I told you before and I'll tell you again...you two kids read each others letters, swap, so you'll get all the info and I won't have to repeat lots of material. Also, Rick wrote and asked if I had done anything with PK lately. My god! Suggest you look into this. You kids have got a ton of mail from me on "P K Man." Hope you are enjoying your modern dance lessons. You're a fine dancer. I dreamed about you and Rick last week. You were telling me you were homesick, poorly tho we were and are. I don't know what to tell you about school. Guess I'd better keep my opinions to myself, for your good. But there is one thing that is certain. Without a High School diploma you are dee diddly i dead. So get it. What would make your daddy proud is not a top grade in science or some school effort...but a top grade in TRUTH, LOYALTY, LOVE, PRINCIPLE, VALUES, PERSISTENCE, OLD-FASHIONED GUTS, etc. You can't get these things in school...and these are the REAL things that will make your life ahead a heaven or a hell. Of them all, LOVE is the most elusive - but you will only get it, by giving it. It's a weird reverse-process. You can sit on your fanny with your thumb in your mouth and surround yourself with goodies, TV, candy, money, a fine home, a fine car...and if you haven't got LOVE, forget it. All the goodies will turn to ashes in your mouth. What makes me sick at my stomach are the modern kids...telling lies to get what they want, get by...taking, taking, taking love and not giving any back...cheating and twisting TRUTH to meet their wants...giving up their targets and goals if things get hard or difficult...etc. Pitiful. And the woods of the city jungles are full of these kids. Poor Diogenes, if he went looking for it nowadays. The religious movies are lousy. Too many morons and idiots writing the scripts and directing. To get a good religious movie you'd need Jesus directing, God producing, etc. That's the only way. You have brains, honey. Just use them. They need exercise, like your legs and arm muscles. And use them right. We miss you and Rick. Be good. And please mind Pat. With me, she's the best friend you have in this whole world, even if sometimes it's hard to understand when she is trying to guide you. Be absolutely straight with Pat...she's loaded with ESP and can spot a lie in an instant, and she won't like you for it. Make it a rule absolutely never to cheat on a friend, or lie to a friend. Shouldn't to anyone, but especially to a friend. That's how good character is built deep inside you. Love, Dad P.S. Jack Danziger died. Remember - he gave you a doll when you were a baby. 08/07/2025 16:38 === Page 189 of 220 November 6, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swenk, O.S.C.A.R. Si's will go after Lu of just up + Gem. 12 going up Wed.

Accidents and catastrophes for the U.S. and U.S. Govt. (same thing?) touching on all of the Choice File. Therefore...my prediction was correct. (Not that this is over...far from it. I've just pointed out what is happening. There's more to come, until the Si's are made friends.) 08/07/2025 16:38 08/07/2025 16:44 === Page 193 of 220 11/6/66 p5 Page Five In closing this long prediction-pointer-outer. I have discovered something which, in the interest of science, might interest you. Running through the Si punishment is an identifiable thread. In the killer California fires, the winds changed direction almost in an instant, killing men who had been through hundreds of such fires and were used to coping with wind changes. A sudden wind change. In so many great accidents you read "flash fires...sudden change of wind direction...sudden appearance of giant wave smashes bow of ocean liner...tornados appeared suddenly without warning...the killer snowstorm was a "sneak" storm, completely unexpected, trapping thousands of people...etc. Time, Rowland. A different timing of things than to which humans are accustomed. Another identifiable thread is the constant use of the word "plague" and "plagued by" in news clips, referring to all sorts of things most of which are concerned with Si phenomena. Subconscious discernment? Another identifiable thread is ... well, in the writeup of the recent copter crash on the carrier Guadalcanal: "It was the second recent case in which the American war effort has been hit by mysterious disasters." (I am quoting newsclip) Almost without exception the cause of the many catastrophes cannot be explained...is always under investigation...in many cases is honestly termed "a mystery." (Correction...the above "mystery" newsclip quote came from the mysterious explosion of the ammunition dump in Saigon, because no VC were there and they couldn't figure out how it happened...like the two aircraft carrier fires, where there were no VC either.) One further note; the Si's have told me when they first got to me. I was hit by an auto while standing in a hole by the side of the road, and flung up into the air for 20 feet, when about six. Was knocked out for seven hours. I still remember it all vividly. I was climbing out of the hole in front of my grandfather's house on 14th St., then I woke up in grandpa's bed, seven hours later. In that time, the Si's began their contact. After that, like a case of multiple personality, the Si in me would only "come out" in case of emergency...otherwise it would fade back and let me be myself. This would explain many strange things in my life...like my ability as a hypnotist...like my mind-reading ability, and psychometry ability...like the night while driving my car on a mountain road I tried to turn it sideways halfway up a mountain with a sheer cliff drop on my right...and a car full of negros appeared suddenly without warning coming down the mountain and drove right on through my car, to my utter horror and astonishment...just like a plane flying through a cloud. I got on the phone and told Pat, my wife, long distance about it. Completely unbelievable. I could see far up the mountain before I tried a turn on the narrow, steep cliff road, and saw no car lights. So I turned sharp left into a small road and began to back out, blocking the road completely. Perhaps four or five feet to the steep cliff in back of my car. Suddenly in my rear view mirror I saw car headlights right on top of my car. I closed my eyes and waited for the crash. None came. I opened my eyes and saw this car full of negros, laughing and shouting, driving on PK Man 08/07/2025 16:38 === Page 194 of 220 November 10, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swenk, Organization of Scientific Research. Dear Rowland: What do you think now of my prediction of June 5, 1966, of a nuclear submarine (U.S.) catastrophe and/or U.S. aircraft carrier catastrophe, plus a Si blow struck at our seat of Government, The White House? Since then, would you believe: Three (3) submarine accidents: Sept. 15, West German sub Hai sank with crew. Wipe out. Nov. 4, U. S. sub Tiru runs aground on the rocks; took 3 days to pull it off. Being repaired now in Australia. (When I called you about the Tiru...you asked if the sub was nuclear, as per my prediction, remember?) Nov. 10, today, the nuclear U.S. sub Nautilus collided with the U.S. aircraft carrier Essex, and was extensively damaged. (The Si's must have heard you and wanted the prediction perfect to the smallest detail.) Six (6) U.S. Aircraft Carrier accidents: OCT. 5 CARRIER KITTY HAWK, PLANE FELL OVERBOARD, KILLED TWO PILOTS. Oct. 25, Carrier Oriskany burned, killing 34 officers and pilots and 9 enlisted men. Nov. 1, Carrier Guadalcanal had copter crash on deck that killed 4 and injured 18. Nov. 4, Carrier Franklin D. Roosevelt caught fire, 8 killed. (Note: It is interesting that this carrier got hung up the same day as the sub Tiru, just as the accident today hung up the Nautilus and Essex.) Nov. 8, Aircraft Transport (but former aircraft carrier...must look like carrier and fooled the Si's) caught fire, Kula Gulf, at Hawaii. Nov. 10, Carrier Essex crashed into nuclear sub Nautilus. All this...in the short space of about six weeks, after my prediction. And to top it off, the 3rd part of my prediction has come to pass. President Johnson, symbol of the White House and our seat of govt. is going into hospital for surgery. What do you think of that, Rowland? Still on the co-incidence kick? Respectfully, P K Man (Owens) Owens P.S. Remember I warned the Govt. not to hold these naval exercises!! === Page 195 of 220 November 10, 1966 Rowland - An added letter to this envelope. If the documents, with their truth of PK and SI's, in this envelope do not absolutely frighten you as a scientist, my friend, then you are made of rock. Enclosed is a xerox copy of my May 23 letter to George Clark, CIA, stressing that the SI's would hit the Democrats hard at poll time... and you just saw the results yesterday. The Republicans had a sweeping victory. Johnson and party were dealt a mighty blow. Of further interest is something I noticed...did you notice how many Democrat leaders have had accidents these past two months, and heart attacks? There were two fatal ones just today. I quote newsclip: "Death Overtakes Two Who Won In Indiana" - "Two successful candidates in the Indiana elections have died since Tuesday. Kermit Burrous, at Wabash, and Cecil Bingham, Democrat, etc." Then you have the string of Sharp accidents and mishaps, and other Democratic officials who have succumbed. It is something to think about...how the PK worked. (Odd mechanisms). When the SI's said they would use "all their power" they were not wasting words. Enclosed is another xerox copy of my June 13 letter to George Clark, CIA, in which I warned the Govt. not to allow naval exercises in the Atlantic...and I listed the reasons why...even referring to my June 5 prediction to Zelda Mansell, George, and her husband. I had in mind the exercises at that time, but it would not matter when they were held. Then or now. Would be more dangerous now, for PK grows with time. So today the giant aircraft carrier smashed into the nuclear submarine Nautilus. The sub might have gone down with its crew. They were lucky. The next time, and there could be a next time, there might be no survivors. The warning still stands ahead in the future. PK and the SI's are not bound by time limits, I have found. You may recall I warned to you, Rowland, somewhere along the line, that Atlantic waters would be particularly dangerous to ships, subs and planes. Recall? I sent copies of the above two letters to Eastwood, Inventions, Nasa; Louise Shine; my kids, now in Lomita, Calif.; and perhaps to Jack McKinney. Also, I think, to Zelda Mansell in Ardmore, Pa. So there are two more solid hits for my files, Rowland. PK Man (Owens) Owens === Page 196 of 220 Sunday, Nov. 13, 1966 Joe McGinniss, Sports Writer, Inquirer Dear Mr. McGinniss: Last week, and up until last week, I had ignored the Eagles defensive, thinking that if I stopped the Eagles offensive with PK it would be enough for my purposes. To my amazement...the PK worked perfect, the Eagles offensive wouldn't have beaten the Girl Scouts, as a team effort.. but the Eagles defensive unit won the game. The three run backs and the stolen ball just when the Cowboys could have kicked a field goal...were an absolute miracle, you understand. So this week, with the Browns, I not only called on the si's (saucer intelligences) to stop the Eagles offensive, but also to stop the Eagles defensive effort and kickbacks. You saw the result today as the Browns murdered the Eagles, who could not count on a miracle to win this time. I wish you would do an article on this, pointing out that all the Eagles opponents have to do is take advantage of their many opportunities given them by PK...and not give away touchdowns...to win. And send a tear sheet to those coaches of the teams still to confront the Eagles. Let them know about the PK and what it means for them, as an edge. Sincerely, P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce Street, No. 33 Philadelphia, Pa. Owen === Page 197 of 220 Sunday, Nov. 13, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swenk, O.C.A.R. Forgive me for waking you up at 2 in the morning Sat. night, but as I told you...about 1 o'clock the Si's communicated with me strongly and told me, with mental imagery, that they were dropping "white rain" (more like silver, as per their picture) on the Gemini 12 capsule in space, and that it would have an effect on the capsule, and for me to get dressed, find change, find your phone number, leave my 3rd floor apartment, find a phone and call you. I checked it out once, then twice, with them, and they were adamant. So I followed their instruction, as you know, and called you about. This "white rain" is something new in the OIE vocabulary. Evidently they are experimenting with different effects. Will be interesting to see what comes of the "white rain." P K Man (Owens) Kids - send back my UFO pocket book!!! === Page 198 of 220 November 15, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Nothing could be more important to you and I and the U.S. than this letter...it concerns our survival, I am sure. Last night the Si's let me look through the Window of Time and see what lies ahead. Through the window I could see a gorgeous sunset.. (meaning time, before dark closes in) and there, spread across the sky was a beautiful tiger, in full colors, probably hundreds of miles in length across the sky. I interpret the Si's communication as a prediction that: (1) The Asian race will master the world in the very near future, powerful Russia and U.S. notwithstanding. (2) The Asians will take over complete control and mastery of the skies in Viet Nam, in some way...our great power notwithstanding or (3) The Asians will destroy all of our forces in Viet Nam in the near future. There was more to the communication...that our "house" was mined, set with a booby-trap to blow up the "house". I interpret this as the U.S. has been secretly prepared by enemies to be destroyed, in the near future. Or the U.S. in Viet Nam has secretly been prepared for destruction, which will take place in the near future. PK Man (Owens) === Page 199 of 220 Wednesday, November 23, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: I am angry...the Si's are angry. You can expect airplane crashes all over the United States, under all kinds of conditions, consistently, throughout the following weeks and months. It will be a storm...of plane crashes. The Si's have craft everywhere, positioned over our States. They are now going into action to knock down planes, everywhere. I'm a couple of days late sending this communication to you from the Si's...but I thought perhaps you would send me that confirmation. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 200 of 220 Monday, Dec. 5, 1966 Rowland Swank Organization of Scientific Research Dear Rowland: Just a note. Not scientific. But something very unusual and very different happened last night. Better tell it. For some reason none of us were sleepy, as we usually are at midnight. The baby sat at my feet playing with his toys, and I read. About 1 in the morning we still weren't sleepy. I made baby get into bed...and Martha said she felt like walking out onto the balcony outside our windows to get a breath of fresh air. This was quite unlike Martha, because she is afraid of the dark. In about five minutes she ran back inside the apartment, slammed the door, and was hysterical with fear. As I got the story... She went out onto the balcony, where there is a great view of the city at night...and a sweeping view of the sky. She stood there, wondering if there were any flying saucers up there...when suddenly something alive, about two feet high, dropped from nowhere to a position about three feet from her on the balcony, and just stood there. She was scared witless and dashed back inside. The thing was not a cat, she said (she knows cats). She was just standing there when suddenly she saw this dark form drop onto the balcony with a thump...it was about two feet high, and just crouched there where she could see its outline the darkness. I know positively Martha was not imagining it. Once she told me there was a pigeon the roof across, with a collar around its neck, and I told her she must be imagining it. She wasn't. It had something like a radar screen strung around its neck. Another time she woke me up in the middle of the night and said there was a flying saucer in the room, and I thought she must be dreaming. But she wasn't. It was in the room. Sothe Si's have made their first approach to us. Unfortunately it was not me on the balcony. My reaction, however, was typically stupid. I ran out with a throwing knife, a combat knife and a blackjack. Before I thought. And that is the sad history of the human reaction to the nearness of the Si's. In the future, no matter how frightening...I must carry no weapons. P K Man (Owens) P.S. Then we went to bed about 2. And I could not sleep. My mind just would not go to sleep. I fell asleep about 4 or 5. After Martha came back into the room, hysterical with fear, the baby also got terribly frightened and chattered for an hour without stopping. Something he's never done. He scarcely talks. Owens === Page 201 of 220 12/9/66 P1 Dec. 9, 1966 Dear Rick: I enjoyed getting your letters. What do I want for Christmas? Just love and peace of mind. No gifts, thanks very much. I have gotten so dam mad at the crass comercialism now at Christmas I could spit. HOWEVER, please do send baby Beau and Martha a present...for their Christmas is not complete with tree and presents. (Furthermore...I sincerely believe that humans should no longer observe Christmas at all. Honest. Since it is the birthday of Jesus...and that's why we celebrate it...it is no longer a true thing. Because all the rest of the year we humans kill, hate, lie, cheat, steal, corrupt....phooey. Then back on Christmas day we give each other presents. Then back to the stinky rat-race. So I say humans do not deserve the privilege of celebrating the birth of Jesus...until they, humans, become good in all the meanings of the word. Look...right now they are making a big joke out of the word 'holy'. Watch Batman and Robin. Holy this and holy that. It has become a big joke. They have copied the idea on the Milton Berle Show and other shows...holy this and holy that. So now all the tiny kids think the word holy is a joke. Some joke.) Lecture's over. Speaking of lectures, I've been asked to give one at a college here in Philadelphia, on January 11, on the mind. Specifically on memory techniques and hypnotism. Do I think you should go out for pro basketball? Each to his own, pal. Go for basketball in H.S. and see how it develops. You are an ace in my book at basketball. So what if you haven't got all the fine points down yet. They come with practice. Also take up tennis, and take up golf. Golf pros make big money and have lots of fun. But sports aside...you're a dandy writer and typist. I am proud of your good typing. Practice writing stories. Write me a story about our long trip across the United States. That's what I'd really like to have for a Christmas present. Put in everything you can remember. If you could grow up and write books, then you would be doing what I wish I were doing! It's good money, you travel, and you have fun. We have a camera, but it's busted. I'll try to fix it and send you some pictures. You will be interested in my latest project...working with the Si's to end the drought in India (worst in 100 years) and to feed the hunger. 4 million people are supposed to die there this year from hunger. This is a big, good demonstration by the Si's, in the time ahead. Two TV shows have copied my "Knife" idea. That Red Buttons monstrosity which flunked out...and now there's another one going. However, nobody could copy my other novel! Ha ha! "The Love Doll"...remember? You will make a wonderful cheer leader. Always keep a big happy grin on your face and yell real loud. 08/07/2025 16:44 === Page 202 of 220 12/9/66 P2 2 Re the "change of atmosphere" - you are sensitive to it, eh? No, the Shannons certainly would not have the atmosphere which surrounds me and mine. But then, the Shannon's eat better, and live better, don't they? One time Dorothy Frye in Ft. Worth Texas begged me to let her take me to a famous "reader" there...a colored woman, paralyzed in bed, who "read" for people at $10 a throw. I finally went with Dorothy. When I was taken into this famous reader's bedroom...she looked up at me...her eyes got wide...and she was quiet for a while. Then she said, "Mr. Owens...there is so much power around you, that you have brought into this room, that it is impossible for me to read for you...and not only that, but after you leave here I am afraid it will be days before the power dies down enough for me to read for other people." If you want my honest statement on it, Rick...I am charged with some kind of strange power. Not just in me, but it extends all around me. Those living with me become saturated with it. Whether it's from the Si's, or something else...I do not know. At any rate...it is some kind of power...it is not money, and you know very well that although I am loaded with strange power I do not have money. And I wouldn't have it any other way. I will gladly take the strange powers...and let everyone else take the money. Even though it's damned inconvenient sometimes. Then there is something else. When you and Lornie were with us, we formed a team. A fine team. Sure we fussed...but even the best pro basketball teams fuss sometimes between themselves...then they go out and work together to beat the other teams. That's the way we were, Rick. You and Lornie sold those jiggers to get us gas...I told fortunes and taught auto-hyp so we could eat...you and me took wrecked cars apart so we could keep going...we nursed the puppies and helped Marthy Ann bring them into the world...and you and I and Lornie and Martha and Beau helped bury Marthy Ann. We slept together, traveled together, were hungry together, and ate fried chicken and ice cream feasts together...all five of us. That made us a team...and together we had power, a form of personality-power. You don't have that at the Shannon's because it isn't the same set-up, the same kind of team. Their needs are different than what our team had. Tell me one thing...where else in the entire world could you, Rick, in one house, sit down at a set of drums like in Seattle and play, then go watch tiny puppies waddle around, then go outside and throw knives, then come inside and talk to a professional about hypnotism, mind-reading, and UFO's? That's what we had. We haven't got it any more. We were building up to it again in Washington. I never quit building up, if I get knocked down. It's always up and at 'em again. However, don't get me wrong...the Shannon's are fine people...Pat's the best. Their way of living is just different than mine (who's isn't?) and so the atmosphere is different. I wanted to teach you a lot of things when you were with me, but couldn't because your judgement wasn't ready for it. Now it's extremely doubtful if I will ever get to teach you anything more. Beau is bigger and cuter than ever. love, Dad 08/07/2025 16:44 === Page 203 of 220 12/9/66 p3 COMMUNITY COLLEGE OF PHILADELPHIA 34 SOUTH 11TH STREET, PHILADELPHIA, PENNA. 19107 LO 9-3680 December 8, 1966 Mr. Ted Owens 22d floor 12 S. 12th St. Philadelphia, Pa. 19107 Dear Ted: Don Angell's English Composition Class at the Philadelphia Community College accepts with pleasure your kind offer to lecture before it. We are glad you have stated it will be convenient for you to come the evening of January 11, 1967. The class is conducted from 7:30 p.m. to 8:40 p.m. If you do not have that much time to spare, rest assured we shall be grateful for just whatever you think will be effective. You mentioned you were interested in talking about self-hypnosis. I also remember your statement that you dealt with the field of memory improvement technique. The class was vociferous in agreeing that this was what they needed most - guidance so they could improve their ability to retain in their minds the text book material and extra reading assignments showered upon them. We look forward to all the help you can give us in this direction. The classroom number is 211. I think I have given you an understandable map to guide you, and I trust you will not get lost on the way. Remember, the library facilities of the school are at your command if you have time between supper and the witching hour: 7:30 p.m. or as close to that as you can manage. I am sure you would have secured a warm glow of pleasure if you had seen all the hands go up when Don Angell wanted to know if the class would be interested in hearing you. Sincerely, J. M.

My letter to you of November 23, copy, plus overnight news-clips, is self-explanatory. I feel they have been waiting patiently...and not getting any cooperation, have just begun on their "bringing down aircraft" campaign. By the way...the radio reports last night said the SAC bomber carried nuclear bombs when it crashed. The papers said it didn't. Makes you wonder who you can believe.

I'm a couple of days late sending this communication to you from I thought perhaps you would send that confirmation. Three Airmen Feared Dead As SAC Bomber Crashes McKINNEY, Ky. (UPI). -- A B-58 Strategic Air Command jet bomber on a routine training mission plowed into a rugged mountain section of Kentucky, apparently killing the three crewmen aboard. A spokesman at Bunker Hill Air Force Base, Ind., said the bomber was not carrying nuclear warheads. The plane was headed for Indiana after practice bombing run. Kentucky State Police said one body had been recovered, but identification had not been made. Among those reported aboard was Capt. Clarence D. Lunt, 29, of Williamsport, Pa. Pi Man (Owens) Copter Crashes, 10 Missing SAN DIEGO, Calif (UPI). -- A big Navy jet helicopter carrying eight officers and two enlisted men crashed at sea 30 miles offshore. It was feared all were killed. An intensive air-sea search recovered bits of wreckage of the copter but there was no sign of the occupants. Navy Helicopter Crashes at Sea From Our Wire Services SAN DIEGO, Calif., Dec. 12. -- A Navy H-46 Sea Knight helicopter carrying 10 men crashed at sea 30 miles of-shore late Monday and an intensive search was under way for survivors. The big helicopter left nearby Ream Field at 7:30 P. M. (EST) for the amphibious assault carrier Tripoli, the Navy said. The helicopter, attached to Squadron HC1 at Ream Field, crashed 20 minutes later about four miles short of the carrier. An air-sea search was begun immediately and the crash area was illuminated with flares so the search could continue through the night. Navy and Coast Guard vessels and aircraft participated in the search. NUCLEAR BOMBER!! B-58 With 3 Aboard Crashes on Farm HUSTONVILLE, Ky. -- A U. S. Air Force B-58 bomber with three men aboard crashed Monday night on a farm near here, the Air Force said. The Air Force reported the plane caught fire when it crashed. A spokesman said the flames were caused by the plane's fuel and that there were no munitions aboard. A witness at the scene said he saw the body of the pilot, still in his ejection seat, about 300 feet down the hill from the crash scene. There was no word on the fate of the other two persons aboard. === Page 206 of 220 Kids - am trying to get CIA, etc. confirms. Pat is already a friend of the Si's. Dad. Friday, December 16, 1966 To my contacts and former contacts: Folks: This is what a confirmation looks like. It is a notarized statement of fact, based on predictions made by me in writing before national or international events happened...and which came to pass. I do not ask any of my contacts to state that they believe in UFO's, or believe that I am connected in UFO's, etc. I simply ask them to tell the truth on paper...that I have been doing something no other person in the world has done, or could do. Mrs. Hansell's example is how it is done. It simply states fact. And since most of you got the very same predictions she got...you know absolutely that it is a fact. Jack McKinney, in 1965, scoffed at my predictions and inferred that I perhaps wrote my predictions after the fact. This was a legitimate suspicion, since a person without scruples could do so...but Jack McKinney knows today, absolutely for sure, that the seemingly impossible predictions he scoffed at in 1965 that had come to pass... were in fact sent to CIA and NASA and I said, because Jack has had enough of the predictions ahead of the event...in many various categories (hurricane, earthquake, UFO appearance, etc.)...to know now exactly what I have been doing. That goes for all you others, too. My work in the future will be much more powerful than what I have done in 1964, 1965, and 1966. Those of you who would like to be a friend to PK Man and the Si's, send in a notarized list of simply-stated facts re my "hits". That notarized list puts you on my and the Si's team. Bear in mind I do not ask you to list anything that is false. Why should I, when the predictions I have made that have come to pass by now are well over 100...major events. And much more to come. It is a funny situation. I am doing miracles (saving the girl who would have died in Wash., D.C.; making a hurricane appear early, then making another hurricane go in the direction I want it to go, even back up; making UFO's appear on schedule as proof they are tied in; etc.) yet those to whom I am showing these miracles...instead of being excited about it, and proud to have been shown...seemed ashamed of me, and won't even admit I have done it. What if the people, in the thousands, that Cayce saved, Edgar Cayce, had refused to acknowledge his miracles had helped them or saved them? If you do not want to list any specific happenings...you could at least send a note saying that yes, it is absolutely true that I have predicted many major events before they came to pass. You know I did, so why be ashamed to say so? Owens 08/07/2025 16:44 === Page 207 of 220 12/16/66 p2 November 28, 1966 On June 5, 1966, Ted Owens made the following prediction to myself, my husband, Robert Hansell, and George Riddle: The UFO intelligences, to demonstrate their powers further to the U.S. Govt. will bring about a nuclear submarine catastrophe, or Aircraft carrier catastrophe, i.e., a naval catastrophe involving U.S. vessels within the near future. They will also deal our seat of Government (The White House and Capitol Hill) a serious blow in the near future. The above to take place not later than September, 1966. ---------- (Only the time element was off a bit) Sept. 15, 1966, the West German submarine Hai suddenly sunk with its crew. Oct. 26, 1966, the U.S.S. Aircraft Carrier Oriskany caught fire and burned, killing 34 officers and pilots and 9 enlisted men. Nov. 2, 1966, U.S.S. Aircraft Carrier Guadalcanal, a helicopter crashed on deck killing four of the crew and injuring eighteen others. Nov. 4, 1966, U.S. Navy Submarine "Tiru" accidentally went aground of the coast of Australia and radioed for help. Took three days for tugs to get it off the rocks and it is now in port being repaired. Nov. 5, 1966, U.S.S. Aircraft Carrier Franklin D. Roosevelt Jr. caught fire, killing eight of the crew. Commander Schoultz, the ship's captain, termed the cause of the blaze "a mystery". Nov. 8, 1966, former aircraft carrier, now a transport caught fire in Kula Gulf, Hawaii. Nov. 10, 1966, Nuclear U.S. sub Nautilus collided with the aircraft carrier Essex, and was extensively damaged. Also, on Nov. 5, 1966, President Johnson of the United States announced that he must have two operations performed at once; surgery. This was, certainly a blow to our seat of government. Therefore it is my conviction that this 3-point prediction by Ted Owens has come about (although a few weeks late) in the exact order that he predicted it.

MARCH 10, 1966 - End of drought conditions to occur in near future. (By end of June, Udall had made a report to President Johnson stating that the drought had definitely diminished in intensity.) APRIL 26, 1966 - U.F.O. seen over Philadelphia. This was predicted on April 19 in carbon copy sent to me. JUNE 1, 1966 - Predicted early hurricane. Alma occurred five days later. JUNE 17, 1966 - Predicted major earthquake in California. Same occurred eleven days later. JUNE 18, 1966 - Predicted series of violent electrical storms in Philadelphia area. Several fierce storms occurred during the end of June and in July--unusual amount of lighting. JUNE 29, 1966 - Warned that U.S. Fleet would be attacked off Viet Nam coast. Two days later, torpedo boats attacked U.S. warships. OCT. 15, 1966 - Predicted that a U.F.O. would be seen and reported in the mass media, in the vicinity of Philadelphia, on Halloween. The Camden, N.J. newspaper reported a U.F.O. seen by many people on Oct. 31. It was heading for Phila. Zelda S. Hansell Zelda S. Hansell 29 S.

P K Man (Owens) === Page 210 of 220 December 22, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Enclosed is xerox of page from my letter to George Clark of July 17, 1965, predicting that President Johnson would be up to his neck in a "bad, smelly scandal"...which of course he is right now, with the Jackie Kennedy material being unloaded in all the newspapers blasting Johnson's motives and actions, etc., in the past. I attached a newsclip to the xerox...the "besmirches" thing...to indicate this. So, another hit. (This is the back-page of letter in your xerox'd files No. 38.) My intuition tells me a different story than appears in the papers. It is this: Johnson found out that the boom was going to be lowered on him in the Jackie Kennedy book...so he sent word to Jackie that he had a dossier on her private life, which is much rawer than the American public could ever imagine. And that if he got clobbered with her book, she'd get clobbered with carefully leaked info on her private life. (The irony is that Bobby Kennedy has a dossier on Johnson's own private life, which is much rawer than the American public could ever imagine, and is prepared to leak out the info if the other two get in a battle of leaked info. Jackie covered her losses in having to make a big show of removing the offensive material from the book...by seeing that the offensive material was leaked out anyway, as it was this week. Ahead, therefore, since the damage has been done to Johnson...the American public will find out through leaks from Johnson friends that Jackie has done such and such with so and so...and Jackie will come off with quite a horrible black eye. After that, the public will find out that Johnson has misbehaved in various ways unbeknownst to the country...which will be leaked out by Bobby Kennedy in retribution for damage done to his sister. And Johnson will be in worse scandal than he is now. That's what I see, looking ahead with intuition (ESP). Let's wait and see if I'm wrong. Incidentally, to change the subject, I refer to my March 26, 1966, letter to George Clark...in the file of Si's vs. Air Force, telling George that Hyneck may have doomed the Air Force by calling the Si's "marsh gas" etc. Well, a few weeks ago, Dec. 17, 1966, front page of the Saturday Evening Post was the article, "Are Flying Saucers Real" "A Surprising Report From The Top Scientific Authority"...namely, Hyneck. An apology of sorts from Hyneck for calling the Si's "marsh gas". It's a The AF has been taking an awful beating. Owens 08/07/2025 16:51 === Page 211 of 220 12/22/66 P2 JULY 17, 1965 William S.

PR Man 08/07/2025 16:51 === Page 212 of 220 December 27, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: An interesting thing has occurred, which should go on record. On my last job with Fashionbilt Clothes, I pointed out that just about everybody in the two offices on my floor...had an accident or an illness. Oscar Patton, my boss, fell down a flight of stairs and injured his leg and was out for a bit. The girl next to me got a phone call and her mother had crashed her car into another car and been taken to a hospital. My alternate boss had a heart attack. The other woman in our office injured her foot so severely she could hardly hobble about. And at one time everybody was home sick but me and one girl. Now, on my new job...my boss, Mr. Shiekman, was in his car in New York a couple of weeks ago and it was hit by a truck. A friend of mine, a girl, Phylis Moscowitz, was stricken a couple of weeks ago with mononucleosis and has been gone for a couple of weeks, just returned. The office manager, Miss Minter, fell and injured her leg last week and has been hobbling around on it with it all taped up...also her pet cat dropped dead...then last Thursday night her dad, who was standing with her near a highway, was hit and knocked for 12 feet by a car, and he's in a hospital for six months with traction. Drove his eyeglasses into his right eye. And so on. The odd part of it is...these are not people I am angry at or dislike. They are all people I like. That communication to me from the Si's last week re President Johnson was so urgent...that they urged me to leave work and phone it in to George Clark, which I did. They must really see a danger spot for the U.S. just ahead. I tested their info many times for "strength" (feeling) and it was right, it was there...so I passed it on. The Si's have told me to keep passing on information, instead of shelving it until I get proper confirmations. They said they will handle the matter, take care of it themselves. Incidentally, I misunderstood the full meaning when the Si's said they would cause a storm of airplane crashes. I thought they meant just here in the U.S. But they meant just anywhere, everywhere. You will note there were numerous crashes of planes out of the U.S. last week, or involving U.S. people...the Miami to Columbia crash, the Acapulco/Mexican Crash, etc. There have been many in the past week or so. My method of receiving and sending with the Si's is far from perfect as yet. The Si's have said that they have been teaching lessons out away from the top principals involved...that is, storms and hurricanes and floods, etc., and planes downed and subs and carriers affected...but that now they are going to turn their attention to the top men closer to home. They say as long as something happens to somebody else, it doesn't get the attention it would if it happened to you, personally. So now probably top govt. officials will be getting SI phenomena in large doses 08/07/2025 16:51 === Page 213 of 220 December 29, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: The Si's are giving me information not known elsewhere...even to our Intelligence agencies. I pass it on. Picture a powerful batter in baseball, like Babe Ruth, swinging a big bat...against a concrete wall with all his might. The Si's say that is what the U.S. with all its power is running up against in Viet Nam. We are the batter; our planes and guns, etc., are the big bat...and the concrete wall is what the Reds have planned for us there. While it is true that Hanoi and Ho fear a Chinese take-over, they hate us more than they fear the Chinese...and so will use Chinese help. The Chinese soldiers, fliers, etc., will be slipped in, slowly at first, until large forces gather in Cong clothes or North Vietnamese uniforms....then hordes will be turned loose from China onto our forces in Viet Nam. The Red trap is most complex...but what it adds up to is...to take the coastal areas until Saigon is surrounded by a Red circle (constantly adding more and more hordes from Red China...and shrink the circle always tightening inward, until all U.S. forces are wiped out and no more Americans are alive (except in captivity), in the center of the circle. No matter what talk there is of the Russ fearing the Chinese, etc., right now we are pitted against the Russ/Chinese combination in Viet Nam. They have us exactly where they want us...the hated Americans far from home base, where supplies can be cut off (and they are planning to do this with planes and subs against our planes and ships)...where half a million or more Americans can be destroyed, thus showing the world America is vulnerable...and costing us horribly in lost ships, planes, men. We are the Russ/Chinese common enemy, and they have us at their mercy in Viet Nam, and they will work together as a team to destroy us there. Our stock market will go down, and lose and lose and lose...until people curse money and money will have little meaning. (Because of the Johnson prediction, heart-attack, then the stock market should lose 15-30 points in a single day or two span within the coming 90 days.) But no one could believe, at this time, what utter devastation the American economy will suffer in the coming time ahead. Financial structures will crumble and fall apart, of every kind and description, like shoes rotting in the jungle. (The Si's point out that the above two catastrophes are of our own making. If we right now got our forces out of Viet Nam and got everything and everybody home...they could be saved. As for economy...we have gone past the point of no return, and will be badly hurt even if we quickly cancelled all nutty government "goody" projects (glorifying the scenery etc etc.) and cut out so much govt. corruption (Powell's throwing money away and all like him, and cut out giving billions away overseas, etc etc. But we would survive if we did these things. Which we won't, being incredibly stupid. So...our entire economy will drop dead, and America will be a ruined nation, economically. As if this weren't enough grief...the Si's warn of a pestilence that will sweep the land in near time ahead. Call it a plague of some sort. It will happen all at once and people will drop like flies all over the land. (If this occurs, as the Si's say it will, I have a good idea of where it comes from.) P K Man (Owens) 08/07/2025 16:51 === Page 214 of 220 December 29, 1966 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Lomie & Rick Re my last letter stressing the large number of persons working around me who have accidents, illness, etc., add the following: Bruce Clutterbaugh, star defensive player for the Phila. Bulldogs, who worked in our File Room, got a broken toe and broken knee cartilage some weeks ago. He's been gone since. I used to chat a lot with Bruce, and showed him some judo to use on the line against opposing players. Mickey Peskin, girl who works ten feet away from me...had a skillet full of Wesson Oil catch fire last Saturday...flames shot clear up to the ceiling, spread soot throughout the house...she said it was very close, almost set the house afire. Same girl, yesterday, complained of pain in her jaw, went to the dentist, and he opened an abscess in her jaw. Same girl, today, told me she was paralyzed last night by a terrible back pain...she could not move...her mother had to put her to bed and get her covered up. This morning the odd, paralyzing pain had gone. Dolores Reardigan...friend of mine here in the office...caught strep throat last week, was out for days...came back sick...is still sick, tells me she can't keep food on her stomach. She's pale, wan and drawn with no strength. Miriam...in the File Room...was stricken several weeks ago with throat pain. Went to the hospital and had to have surgery, tonsils removed (she's in her 20's). Same girl had to go home yesterday, sick. Shiekman, my former boss, had his vacation trip delayed last Saturday when one of his children fell sick. ---------- Just wanted to add these to make the picture complete. There is definitely something about a radius around me...that seems to affect others. Because this has occurred in the various places I have worked. When I worked for Gelman in Washington in 1965, the same thing happened...freak accidents, part of the ceiling fell on a woman, people suddenly stricken with illness, etc. P K Man (Ovens) === Page 215 of 220 December 29, 1966 12/29/66 PZ Dear Zelda: I appreciate very much your offer to locate me on that little old lady's ranch in Yucca Valley in California. I have had several offers like that ... you know, come stay with us ... no money, just park there. But here is why it wouldn't work. You know me. I couldn't sit in a rocking chair and let a year go by without forging steadily, somehow, toward my personal goal of starting the Sotas (Church) and getting once more into the swing of healing people, as I did once in Texas. To park with somebody for a year without money, would mean depending upon them for our needs ... food, cigars, cigarettes, stamps, paper, etc etc. I couldn't do that at all, since I have the habit of producing our supplies by my own effort. I have two goals, as given me by the Si's (both are) : (1) Get isolated, and arrange for them to meet with me in person. (2) Get the Sota Church founded, organized, and started ... to use Si power for healing, etc., along with spiritual power. These two goals are intertwined. Therefore I plan to somehow raise $3000 to $5000, the minimum necessary ... send $1000 to found the Church (then I am safe in my healing practices) ... get a used car to transport us and our belongings ... find a remote house or farm to operate from, and meet the Si's ... advertise the new form of Church so people with their problems will know where it is and what it does ... and be able to sustain for 3-6 months to get a running start to build up. I also have to buy a Brain Synchronizer and a short-wave radio, and a few other lesser tools. The above plan ... is the only plan that will work in my case, considering the Si's wishes, and my own needs (family). With the above plan, I utilize the year of waiting for the Si's in an isolated spot ... to build up the newly-founded Church of Sota and be helping people the while ... healing impossible cases, etc. And perhaps write a great big book about the whole thing that has occurred. It is an absolute certainty that the Si's will make a personal physical contact with me within that year's time. Face to face. But at the rate of progress I'm making toward my plan ... and the speed with which the nuclear war is building up ... it might never happen before the U.S. is destroyed. And that is a certainty, also ... and it isn't years away, but close. P K Man (Owens) === Page 216 of 220 December 29, 1966 Dear Lornie and Rick - Our Christmas was a riot. Went like this. We had enough money to get Martha a nice present (hair drier) but not enough to get a tree and everything and still get Beau a $5 wagon ... so we gave him an IOU for a wagon until next week. For the record, Beau has got more toys than an entire suburban area has got. If you get out of bed you immediately step on Batman's face or go rolling on into the bathroom on Tinkertoy wheels or one or more of the dozen some cars and trucks he has strewn around. We are literally ankle-deep in toys. You wouldn't believe it if you saw it. And remember we live in a tiny, two- room apartment. To open the refrigerator you have to move his full-size merry-go-round horse on springs. We keep his tricycle in the hall outside (I hope somebody steals it, but nobody ever does) with his name on it. Of course he went wild on Christmas, and got so excited he wouldn't mind. So Martha said, "If you don't behave, Beau, I'll get the broom after you." So Beau studies her for a minute, then he runs to the closet, gets the broom, brings it back to Martha, hands it to her, and bends over and points to his rear end, grinning. Martha put her hand over her mouth and tried to keep from laughing. Then Beau ran and got a belt and brought it to Martha and bent over and patted his rear end, grinning. He can put Martha through a KXxxx hoop. And with me he's even more skilled. Remember, he can't even talk yet. A few words ... "me go bed" "ah wan e" (eat) and so forth. To get back to Christmas ... mother sent a box of candy to us and a dandy throw-a-ring toy for Beau (which Martha and I play with). And your box came. So Martha hid them in the closet. So for three days Beau battles to get into the closet and pull out the boxes and open them. And Beau simply doesn't give up. Martha was worn out just pulling him out of the closet. Couple of times he succeeded in getting in there, getting some presents out and opening them. One big present Martha brought in to me couple of days hofuna christmas and said "IVO, know TI77 hat this is a nunca !!

So she undid the top and examined the purse, delighted. en she carefully wrapped it up again and put it with the other unopened resents. She's been pining for a hair-drier for a long time, so I determined to get her one for Christmas. Did. Brought it home. I told her not to peek in the big shopping bag, because her present was in there. "Well," she said, "is it wrapped up?" "No," I told her, "I am Kxxxxx no good at all at wrapping presents." She brightened up, "Then maybe I'd better wrap it, all right?" See how devious she was to find out what her present was? So I said sure, go ahead. So she gets out paper and ribbons and things and wraps it all up then brings me a card ... "Do you want to write me a card?" I said sure, and wrote her a card, which she put on her present and put it with the other things. Christmas Day we got up early and opened presents. As usual I let Martha unwrap everything, which she dearly loves to do. They lay under our giant six-foot-high tree (loaded with angels, sparkling little houses, colored globes, flashing on-and-off lights, etc. and the star Martha made on top). Neither Martha nor I can figure out how to play the Yahtze game ... so we are going to just use the dice and cup and throw for high-dice. Beau latched onto the little toy jeep that runs so well ... and wouldn't play with anything else all day. He loves that jeep. Write and let me know how your Christmas went.

Owens # FLYING SAUCER INTELLIGENCE SPEAK BY: Ted H. Owens Suppose a man came to you and said that an earthquake would strike the California coast in a few days...and the very next day a big earthquake on the California coast is reported in all the papers. Then the man comes to you again and says that, in 2 weeks time, by Halloween, he will try to cause a UFO to be seen and reported in the newspapers. And sure enough, on Halloween night a UFO is seen by numerous persons in Camden, N.J. headed for Philadelphia (where the man making these predictions lives) and it is written up in the newspapers, just as the man said it would be. The same man comes to you and says that in the days ahead an early hurricane will appear off Florida...and 5 days later Hurricane Alma appears and hits Florida...the earliest hurricane in history to do so. When Hurricane Inez is born, this man comes to you and tells you that, contrary to what the Weather Bureau says, Inez will turn right at Cuba and go to the U.S. -- IT DOES -- Then, contrary to what the Weather Bureau says, the man says the hurricane will back up and take the same track Hurricane Betsy took last year. WHICH INEZ DOES! The man comes to you and says in the near future President Johnson will have a breakdown in health. In 120 days an unexpected public announcement is made that Johnson will have to have surgery. This same fellow then says that an attack on our warships by the enemy in Viet Nam is imminent...to beware. And sure enough 2 days later North Vietnamese torpedo boats strike with a sneak attack at our aircraft carriers. You are told that within just days a UFO will be seen flying over Philadelphia. In 6 days the now famous "Fireball Over The East Coast" is written up in national magazines and in all the papers. Then he comes to you and says that in the near future the U.S. will suffer a naval catastrophe involving aircraft carriers or submarines...and within 120 days the U.S. Aircraft Carrier Oriskany burns; the U.S. Nuclear Sub Nautilus crashes into the U.S. Aircraft Carrier Essex; and altogether there are 10 U.S. Catastrophes involving aircraft carriers and U.S. submarines within this period of time. But all these miraculous predictions are nothing new to you, because this same man has been doing this same thing for TWO years! Over 100 SUCCESSFUL PREDICTIONS ALL INVOLVING MAJOR EVENTS. You would like to try and pooh-pooh all this, but you cannot, because you know the man has given you the predictions IN WRITING ahead of the events...and you know that he has also furnished various government agencies and scientists with the same information, always AHEAD of the event. I am the man making these predictions. The how and what of it all is quite a long and involved account and will be put into print here for the first time. As you might have guessed UFO intelligences were behind all of these predictions, plus over 100 others like them. What you might NOT have guessed is that the UFO intelligences CAUSED all these things to happen. HOW IT ALL STARTED Let's get one thing absolutely straight. I am not a "contactee" in the often thought of way. In the beginning, several years ago, I was. It all began, somehow, in Fort Worth, Texas, where I had sorted out a group of three super-ESP people (one of them a doctor) who were quite advanced in clairvoyance and telepathy. I systematically used hypnotism with them, endeavoring to send their minds to seek out UFOs and establish mental contacts. This they did with considerable success...but that is another story. At that time I lived with my tiny daughter, Lornie, age 8. One particular evening I was out driving along a lonely road in the Texas countryside, with my daughter in the seat next to me, just after dark. Suddenly she said, "Daddy, look, what is that?" and pointed out my driver's window to the left of our car. I took one look, and immediately pulled over to the side of the road and parked. There coming across a field toward us, about 500 feet away, was a cigar-shaped object, with vivid colors streaming from it. White, blue, red and green are the colors I remember strongly now. It seemed to be floating or gliding toward us, making no noise whatsoever. It came fairly close to our car (I would say to within 50 feet or so) then dipped downward and vanished completely. We had watched it for about 2 minutes, I believe. ONLY THE BEGINNING After that evening, strange things began to happen. Ideas began to come to me in a flood. First these ideas helped me to write a book about healing people. Then, as the years passed, something seemed to give me intelligence about national & international events...which came to pass. I thought at first that I had somehow tapped the intelligence behind Nature. I worked with this intelligence, whatever it was, and literally accomplished miracles with it...but that too is another story.

ROBINSON FLYING SAUCER INTELLIGENCE SPEAK is but one such account to be found therein. === Page 2 of 8 Finally I brought my family to Washington, D.C. to place all this information at the service of the United States Government. But they couldn't seem to grasp what on earth it was I was doing, or had. One evening, with the kids (I had my son with me then too) the Intelligence came to me stronger than ever. It told me to give a man I knew in the CIA a message that it would do something at the North/South Pole which would change the electromagnetic field there, and would make the newspapers. They said that when this happened it would be absolute proof of my contact with these then unknown intelligences. Weeks passed and nothing happened. Five months passed... then there it was. The South Pole UFO that parked over the 2 scientific expeditions (making sure it was photographed) altered the electromagnetic equipment at the bases involved. This was of course widely reported on in the newspapers. After this I knew what my contacts were -- UFOs. Shortly after that happened, I received a different sort of intelligence from them, again while seated at the dining table with my two children. I will type it here exactly as it was given to me. INTELLIGENCE FROM AFAR COMMUNICATE First a triangle and rectangle popped into my mind, then the letters A, B and C. I realized that had never happened before... and that the UFOs must be contacting me... so I shushed the kids, grabbed a pencil and paper, and began making notes. The following is what came through at 10 P.M. on Feb. 6th, 1965: "Can't come. Later We'll go find them and blot out." (Here they were talking about some satellites the Government had sent up which the kids and I had been talking about just before the interruption). "When can we meet? We know you. We are friends. Tonight is late, for us. Power low. Keep open mind. We will be back with you. Your needs will be met. A study is being made of how to bring this about. Why are your people crazy? Your earth is disorganized. We would like to help organize it. We did once before, long ago in your time. People wore robes, as you call them, as you call them, then, and wore beards. Hair on their faces." Question: Can you give me an instrument, like a pencil that would do something unusual, that I could use to convince our government of your reality? Answer by Saucer Intelligences: "You could not use what you call a 'pencil' but it is a good idea and we will send you a tool for the purpose. You will know, repeat, know you have talked with us tonight. We will arrange next few days to be seen, by your people, and by that method you will know we are making a signal for you. Count the number of different places we are seen and this will be the number of days before we are able to contact you again. A magnetic condition makes it hard for us to get through to you at all times. You have a question?" Question: Yes, I need money, say $5,000 to buy a car and go across country to meet you. This is money (holding up a bill I had in my pocket). Answer by Saucer Intelligences: "Yes, we know money. But do not use it. (They converse among themselves) Can you use diamonds?" I immediately answered that these could be used to obtain the needed cash. They replied that where they came from they had lots of diamonds. My suggestion was that they fly over me and drop the diamonds. Their reply was as follows: "We will think of it. If we do we will include the tool you need to prove to your people there must be no people-war on earth with atomic weapons." To which I responded that I have tried but to no use. Their answer was a fitting: "Yes, we did not think. Goodbye now, friend." So concluded their contact of Feb. 6th, 1966. One month, to the very day, they again saw fit to communicate with me this time with the following trade of words: Saucer Intelligences: "We have a plan. Please turn that machine off. (The kids and I were listening to the radio. I switched it off.) Can't get through tonight very good... very well. Do you have a car machine?" Answer: Yes, but it will not work. It's broken. That's why I need money. Saucer Intelligences: "We are going to take care of that... money. Do not worry about it. You will be richer than anyone in your country before long (Note: This is one of the things that has NOT come to pass. In fact if anything I have been very much without money since that time.) We want to see you, talk to you. Can we come down?" Answer: Yes, in my back yard. I'll let you in. Saucer Intelligences: "Will you be alone?" Answer: Yes I'll have my family stay upstairs. Saucer Intelligence: "No harm will come to us?" Answer: No. Absolutely not. Lower your flying machine near by back door and step onto my back porch. Knock loudly on the door. I'll let you in and we can communicate. I am very pleased and anxious to meet you. Saucer Intelligences: "Yes. We have what you need to convince your crazy people... your government... that we exist, and can control your world. You can use it. It will be yours to keep." I somehow managed to blurt out a thank you. === Page 3 of 8 directed me to a YMCA typewriter, and had me type out a message from them to the United States. They told me to take it to the radio show, and they would see that the message got to the people. I typed it, next day went to the radio. I enclosed it. It would be good if you could print it, but if you cannot, all right. Since that time I have been amazing a great many people, including radio commentators, scientists...and assuredly the U.S. Government contacts, with predictions of national and international events ahead, which came to pass. And even more amazing...when UFO's would be seen and written up in the papers. Of course the Saucer Intelligence gave me all the information. In these predictions of national and international events ahead, which came to pass. And even more amazing...when UFO's would be seen and written up in the papers. In these predictions the Si's have demonstrated their tremendous powers. Including the changing of weather conditions all over the U.S., the guiding of hurricanes, the making of hurricanes, and many other unbelievable things. They would tell me to write up my contacts and they would cause a California earthquake within days or weeks...and sure enough, California had several big ones. They would tell me they would make an early hurricane off Florida, to tell my contacts...and sure enough...Hurricane Alma appeared, the earliest on record to hit U.S. They told me to warn the Government the communists were preparing to attack our ships off Viet Nam, our carriers. Just two days later, they struck with a sneak torpedo boat attack. But I had called the CIA and passed the message on and when the Reds struck the U.S. was waiting for them...and knocked them out of the water. Always I have written to the government, scientists, and friends before the various happenings, so there would be a concrete record of it all. And it came to pass. ********** JOIN THE SOTA'S ********** Organized and directed by UFO intelligence, according to communications received. These instructions may enable you to become a UFO contact!

Now, I had been writing the government for almost a year, and they KNEW I had something tremendous because so many of the major events I had predicted in advance had come to pass. I spent hours with George Clark of the Central Intelligence Agency. My two children, Lornie and Rick, were with me there to attest to many of the unbelievable things that had occurred. Mr Clark was a fine and intelligent man and paid the closest attention. Another time at the CIA office I was interviewed by a Mr. Dunn. At NASA I spent hours with Mr. Eastwood, of Inventions, because much of the proof the Saucer Intelligence have been giving me involved NASA. But they refused to take action or act on what I had told them. I was offering to them to place these tremendous powers in the hands of the U.S. Government. So meeting my defeat in Washington I headed for Philadelphia. Here the Saucer Intelligence gave me a plan - which I mentioned just before - of making it storm. The Philadelphia Bulletin printed the story and after that I appeared on the Jack McKinney "Night Talk" radio show heard on WCAU. For four hours I was grilled by Mr. McKinney and his assistant, who attempted to find a major flaw in my work. They couldn't. They even called one of several witnesses to my predictions and had him verify what I was saying right on the program. Several days later I was asked to appear on the Ed Harvey "Talk of Philadelphia" radio show, again on WCAU and was asked to make it storm then, just three days away. The weather was quite clear when they called and asked. I said I would try, and signalled the Saucer Intelligence and the day I appeared on the show Philadelphia was nearly ripped apart by a thunder, rain and lightning attack! Still, unbelievable, nothing came of all this. A full year later I was invited on the show again. This time to attest to the amazing accuracy of my predictions. But still no word from the United States Government would be forth coming. Yet many more strange and "out of this world" experiences were about to happen which would prove the Saucer Intelligence were with me. ********** NEW BOOK!

Beckley, 3 Courtland St., New Brunswick, N.J. === Page 4 of 8 Saucer Intelligence: "You need a car, so that you can go far away. We will try to get you one." Question: My child is sick. (My baby, little Beau, had just come down with a terrible attack of red spots and high fever, diagnosed as German Measles) Also a girl, our friend, in a hospital (this was a girl written up in the newspapers as given up as dying by the doctors, that I had been permitted, under police guard, to go visit her hospital room and use the mysterious healing method that had "come to me" in Fort Worth years before.) will you heal them? (The baby got well almost instantly. The girl, previously given up for dead, because of a crushed skull began to recover and is now living in West Virginia. Saucer Intelligence: "We will, indeed, heal them. Worry not. Listen carefully...no time to be lost. Your people must pay attention to you and listen to you, else we must destroy most of the earth's peoples, to begin all over again." Question: You mean, what is happening now has happened before? Saucer Intelligence: "Many times." Question: When are you coming to see me? Saucer Intelligence: "Tonight we will try. Flash your light upward (my flashlight) every hour as long as you can." Question: Can you locate me from signals from my brain? Saucer Intelligence: "We can." I then told them that I would "leave a light on so you can see.". To this they replied: "No turn it off so we will not be seen by others. This is important. .........." Question: Where are you from? Saucer Intelligence: "Some...Jupiter. Others, other places. Even from inside this earth. Goodbye now." Several hours later they contacted me again, that same evening. This time their message was: Saucer Intelligence: "Do not go away, far... Viet Nam (I was trying to do so at the time, through the government). Your people will try to kill you. We need you alive. Listen carefully...there are others like us, against us, who could cause you harm. Be careful of your life. Of your shell. It has taken us ages, in your time, to find a shell (means a human body) like you who can communicate with us. We do not want to lose you. But remember that you are, every moment, in great danger from "them" who use shellbodies. They look like and seem like real people, but they are not." Question: Can you end the war in Viet Nam and help my country, the United States, to become healthy and great again? (By "great" I didn't mean money and power but doing away with murders, gang wars, teen age vidance, wholesale corruption in high and low places...a return to great moral values this country once had.) Saucer Intelligence: "We can and we will. But you must not go there (Viet Nam). Instead go to Hong Kong or Japan as a tourist. Go by freighter ship. We can contact you on the ship. We will defeat your enemies for you in Viet Nam and bring peace. We will help your country. But your country must help you for you are our instrument. Does not your people approach certain fish to communicate with fish? (They flashed a picture of people training dolphins.) We do likewise. We go now to try to approach you. Be ready for us." I immediately told them I would be. But they never came, and I was most disappointed. However, from the happenings at the South Pole I knew that it was not imagination. Our money got short...and Lornie and Rick, my two teenagers, went off to California at the invitation of my ex-wife, who offered to see that they got into college. This was against my wishes but the kids wanted to go, so I let them. And we moved to Philadelphia. Then things began to happen fast. USED AS A TOOL OF THE S.I.'s Here the UFO intelligence went much farther then the "contactee" stage. They trained me. They gave me the tool with which to prove, without a doubt, to the U.S. Government agencies, that they were real and were major events happen. What I am, instead of a contactee, is the ONLY human representative of the Saucer Intelligence on this earth...able to receive intelligence from these people and transmit it to humans...AND PROVE OUT THE INTELLIGENCE THAT HAS BEEN PASSED! In Philadelphia the Saucer Intelligence told me to write the papers and say that I would make it storm. I did so, naming the dates, and they turned loose some fine storms (this during the height of the drought.) The papers wrote this up, and I was asked to appear on a big radio show in Philadelphia. The night before I was to go on radio "they" contacted me, === Page 5 of 8 past year, they should do something startling. Am trying to convey the idea to them of coming right over the city and hovering. They give me the idea back that we might have some kind of RAYS LIKE THEY HAVE, or whatever it is they have, and hurt them or something. So that they are reticent to do this. So I am trying to tell them we haven't such thing, and it's safe. I want to bring one down right over Market Street and have it hover there for 20 minutes. What else they'll do on their own is anybody's guess." January 12, some 5 months later (evidently they waited so the government wouldn't set a trap) they appeared at the Wanaque Reservoir, near here, and were watched by police, the Mayor, the Civil Defense Director, and countless people, as they stayed ALL NIGHT in the area, maneuvering with their craft...AND THEY SHOWED THEIR RAY! They shined it down onto the ice and the police and others who went to the spot found a large hole burned through the thick ice. On April 19th, 1966 I wrote my contacts: "When you read about the UFO seen in Philadelphia, in the days or weeks ahead...you will know who it is linking up with." Only six days later, the famous "Fireball" flashed over the East Coast...and over Philadelphia. Newsclippings have read "flaming Meteor Seen over Philadelphia" and it was written up in national magazines and debated upon whether it was a UFO or an actual meteor. WHY THEY CONTACTED ME As I have gotten it from "them" rather spottily they had worked with me since early childhood, attempting to get through to me. As I grew up, they kept trying. I worked for Dr. Rhine at Duke in the ESP experimentation there and was found to be loaded with paranormal ability by the lab there. But the Si's still hadn't gotten through to me. It seems to have been a combination of the close approach of their UFO to our car in Fort Worth, and then my work in the field of hypnosis in Fort Worth, and then my work in allied fields, that finally made it possible for them to get through to me, finally. I might add at this point that years ago I did quite a bit of wondering by myself over desert and mountain even across Mexican desert where I am sure they must have contacted me. I recall now several instances when I was alone on a mountain top, or on a desert...under the stars wrapped in a blanket...when various "odd" things occurred. ODD EXPERIENCES You may be interested to know my wife and I have had a small circle of spinning vivid-colored light (many colors) in our apartment in Philadelphia. We woke up one night and there it was suspended overhead in our room. We were NOT dreaming...we watched it, fascinated, until it went away. Then she and I saw some strange things, separately, in our apartment. And just a few Monday's ago she went out onto the fire escape outside our windows for a breath of fresh air and something alive, about two feet long or high, dropped down from nowhere onto the fire escape not more than three feet from her and just crouched there. She dashed inside, scared to death. She saw it fall...heard the thump as it landed...and watched it for a split second as it crouched there, moving only slightly...then ran for dear life. Also we have gotten what looks like long insect-like antennae on our TV screen many times...different programs, so it has nothing to do with the film. These twitching antennae move with life-like movements. Also some other odd things have appeared on there, too. We are fairly certain this must be another way for the Saucer Intelligence to let us both know they are watching over us. EDITOR'S NOTE Timothy Green Beckley It is the stated policy of the Interplanetary News Service neither to accept or reject the various contact stories. We merely print them when they appear to be of interest to most of our members. So it is with the above. We believe that truths unacknowledged "by the many are to be found in the opinions of even the most unlikely." In being fair with Mr. Owens we must state that we have on file notarized statements from at least two persons attesting to the fact that his predictions - exactly as stated above - were made in advance. Whether this is strictly "chance" or proof of actual contact with the "saucer intelligence" must be up to the individual reader to decide. We are interested in hearing from readers of this paper both pro and con on the U.F.O. topic and offer you the same opportunity that Ted Owens has been extended. === Page 6 of 8 MESSAGE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE...FROM THE FLYING SAUCER INTELLIGENCE Sent through Ted H. Owens We are very happy that we are able to reach the ears of human beings after trying for long long spaces of time. This human who is talking for us, we have been teaching for year in your time, and now he knows much... and will know much more. He can do much. You must listen to him carefully, and protect him, for if you lose him you lose your link with us, and it is not known for how long it may be until we find another human who can receive our thoughts, and send intelligence back. It would be as if you were trying to teach you earth animals how to talk, and suddenly you found one who could actually converse with you...and through this one animal you had an opportunity to discover the secrets of the animal kingdom. Through us you have the opportunity to discover the secrets of space, of far away places, of advanced technology, but better still you have the opportunity of surviving, for as a race you are utterly doomed now, as you are flying (this is their exact words). Many civilizations before you have so doomed themselves, and destroyed themselves, and we were helpless to give them assistance and advice and powerful aid. Now for the first time in long space ages we are able, through a human's senses, to come to the aid of a good civilization and help it to survive. But we can only do so if you listen and pay attention. We are causing severe drought, with our machines in your skies, so that we can teach you a basic lesson which is that our intelligence is far superior to that of earth intelligence. We can control earth people because we can control what you call weather. When, and not before, our earth human has been accepted by your government, and put to good use, then and only then will we release the drought conditions, and let rainfall come in abundance down onto your thirsty earth. We will also add pestilence and sickness and what you call accidents; we will follow the structure of events which we used in the day of the human you know as Moses, as he strove against the ruler of the great country called Egypt. As we helped Moses in that day, so shall we help the human friend we know now as Ted Owens, you call the "Rain Maker". If it pleases him to think that...of course we make the rain for him, but what is the difference? So that you people of the earth will believe this message we send to you, and we do not expect you to believe it unless we show proof...listen carefully. From now on, in time ahead, we will lift the drought for a little, and let it rain where it is needed. Then, lest you think that it is a perchance, we will drop the curtain once more with our machines, and let the rays of the sun penetrate the bowels of the earth and dry up your rivers, your lakes, your plants until you accept our human as our representative. After you accept him, we have much work for him to do, for we do not speak your language, nor do we know too much, as we should, about your inner workings. It is through this human that we can learn; and it is through us that you can learn. Even now, we send the meaning of our thoughts to him, and his brain translates through pictures and feelings into your English. It is good. Beware lest you take too long to accept our human-friend, for then we must strike a hard blow at the country which spurns him...to punish your country as you would punish a child which persists in misbehaving. After your country has accepted our link and we are able to proceed in keeping earth humans from the time-old habit of erasing themselves as civilizations, we will make your earth a wonderful place, the way it should be. We have no wish to rule you, or dictate to you..we only wish, as friends, to know you, and teach you, and let you be happy. We are not of flesh and blood such as you. Our composition is that of your grasshopper, so that our bodies will compress and expand with spacework. We have no blood, but different chemicals inside ourselves. We are small, but have the ability to reverse our body electricity at will, and this gives us strength to move and to carry great burdens; makes us very strong. Language difficulty makes it difficult for us to send a stream of highly technical information through our human-friend's mind for translation, since he is not a scientist, and must therefore translate as he understands. But for a beginning it is good. And may we ask you please be careful not to pursue our crafts in your curiosity...not to attack us with your weapons, simply because we are not like yourselves. When our human-friend is in an area, please do not have planes overhead, because you do not know it but we will have our craft there as well...we have methods that make our ship so that your earth-eyes cannot see them, at times. You ask if there is anything else, earth friend...Just that, we are happy, and excited for you, and your people, and for us. Be patient and be careful, for we cannot risk losing our human friend-link. That is all. === Page 7 of 8 MESSAGE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE..........FROM THE FLYING SAUCER INTELLIGENCE Sent through Ted H.

Wheather this is strickly "chance" or proof of actual contact with the "saucer intelligence" must be up to the individual reader to decide. We are interested in hearing from readers of this paper both pro and con on the U.F.O. topic and offer you the same opportunity that Ted Owens has been extended.

Sent from Lori Rodriguez in Beaverton, Oregon. Recorded by Lewis Barlow July 19, 2025 Majority written in 1965 and 1966 but were a couple of letters from 1970 and 1976. We received several different packages from Lori that contained Ted Owens letters to his children. As this was more of a general package of letters and covered several different dates, for organization purposes we will just call it general letters. Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading. Examples include books, letters, dissertations, poems, newspapers, articles, archives of mailing lists. Note that facsimiles or images of texts are still of the genre Text. Text Any textual data included in the document === Page 1 of 38 Lonie & Rick Sunday, February 5, 1967 Rowland Swank, Organization of Scientific Research Remember you told me...that when I told your Group some of my predictions they just laughed...because they knew how impossible they were...but then my predictions came to pass? This letter they really won't be able to believe. First...am conducting a new sort of experiment with the Si's...and if it is successful, have asked them to appear over Philadelphia plainly, in the near future (few days, few weeks) so they will be written up in the papers. That will be my signal...my experiment has been successful. Now we wait and see. Now to business...the Si's caused the Cape astronaut tragedy. Same with the San Antonio spacecraft tragedy. How? They were there...in the craft with the men. They explain that in pure intelligence form they can't be seen by us humans...our eyes are not geared to pick up the make-up of the vibrations of their form, or something like that. Trouble is, when they are near our materials...they cause fires. Something about their make-up can cause fires, when near our earth materials. Skeptical? Listen further. The Si's are...what we call poltergeists. They have tried, long in vain, to establish contact with humans. They won't risk their craft, so they go, in their pure intelligence (invisible) form, into human habitations, and try to communicate. Remember I told you, and George Clark long ago, they communicate with us generally by "signs"? That is what they have been doing as poltergeists. Trying to communicate by signs. Think for a minute. In most polt cases, what happens? Plates and dishes fly through the air, plus other things. The "other things" are to get attention and perhaps draw those people who might catch on. The plates and dishes...mean flying saucers. They know we call them such...and they are trying to say, "Look, this is what is trying to communicate with you" and they sail some dishes across the room..."see, we are what you call flying saucers...beings." But so far, nobody caught on. Remember, these beings are not vocal...they can't talk...and in pure intelligence form they have power, but no hands or arms. They can cause things to levitate. Let me say it again...when a plate or dish or saucer flies across the room in front of the startled farmer's family...the Si's are trying to say: "Look, there is something invisible in the room...which has intelligence and has force...and we are trying to say, by sailing this dish (plate, saucer, etc.) across the room that we come from the UFO's or flying saucers that are seen in the skies." So from now on scientists can go to the spot, not of a "sighting" but of a "polting" and can try, through reciprocal signs, to communicate with the Si's on the spot. Knowing that the Si's are going to use a sign language of objects and things. As for the astronauts tragedy and the San Antonio space craft tragedy...they deliberately caused it to happen...two almost at once, to show that the one was no accident...to dramatically try to show us by their "sign" method how close we Americans are to a nuclear holocaust. They, who can see ahead, look ahead, are trying to warn us as best they can to let them help us...before it is too late. Just as Cape Kennedy, and the astros, thought everything was safe and all secure...so we Americans think we are safe and all secure...before tragedy strikes the Nation as quickly as it struck in the astros spacecraft. By the way...Aircraft Carrier Essex just ran aground...and U.S. sub just collided. Owens 08/07/2025 17:04 === Page 2 of 38 Feb. 5, 1967 Dear Lornie: Why haven't you written for months? Didn't you like your camera? It worked fine for me...sent you some of the pictures. If it arrived damaged, I had it insured for $50. We can have it fixed or replaced. That is a long way to send a camera. I have sent some rings that have gotten to my Sotas broken. And why didn't you answer Irene Kuvala? She is a very nice person. She thinks you haven't written because you think she is a "kook", to quote her. Well, she isn't. Write her, if only to say thanks for writing. She's human. I hope school is going well for you, and your boy friend is working out. I also hope you are being a pal to your little brother, who needs you, and your love, and what guidance you can give him. The Si's just destroyed the Cape spacecraft and astronauts, to put more pressure on the govt. Things are getting "down and dirty." The govt. is so stupid. Write. Love, Dad P.S. Am sending you some pictures of you as a little girl. Keep them, because your future husband and children will enjoy seeing them. === Page 3 of 38 Tuesday, Feb. 14, 1967 Dear Lorrie... good to hear from you. Dr. Irene Kavula's address is 2 Cliff St., Wolcott, Connecticut. Am returning the picture Air Mail, as you request. Have two larger, wallet size pics made for Martha and me...plus a 5x11 pic...and let me know the cost. Will send it to you, and you send me the pics. Okay? This is a fine picture, honey. You look great. And he does, as you say, look like a fine young man. I am very happy that you have such good taste in the opposite sex. So you flunked History, eh? But you did fine in your other subjects. Congratulations on a good score. I had trouble with History, too...had a dull teacher, also. But maybe you can profit from a lesson I learned in high school. In my Senior year I decided to hell with whether I liked the teachers or not...they were my grades that were going to show, and it was my time which would be wasted if I flunked...so Lorrie, believe it or not, all I did was study study study on Physics, the toughest course in Bedford H.S., with the toughest most unliked teacher...and I got a B. The teacher told me himself, afterward, that any other teacher would have given me an A...but being him, he didn't give out A's. Just B's to top students. Ugh. What a man. If I'd based my action and hours of time on whether I liked him or not...I'd have flunked flat out. But I used to be like you in my early H.S. years. Incidentally, your camera will use color film. Just get 35 milimeter film. It has a terrific lens. You know, I sent you some pics from it. Don't worry about presents, hon. Remember all the times when I was flat broke at Xmas or birthdays. Ha ha. Nothing new to us, eh? Beau is something else. Words cannot now describe him. He has to be observed to be believed. It is good that you have to earn your own money, honey. Builds character. I was so proud of you and Rick on our adventuring, when you kids sold card fortunes, ironing board holders, etc. It was for the good of the gang...and no one knows better than I that you two can hold your own, anywhere, any time. Must go now Your three pals love you...always know that. Sincerely, Dad 08/07/2025 17:11 === Page 4 of 38 Tuesday, Feb. 14, 1967 Mr. George Clerk, Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: This is probably the most important bit of intelligence I have ever brought to your attention. We need to go back a bit. Remember when I came to see you, with my children, in Washington, D.C., in 1965? I told you the entire incredible story...and warned you, rather CIA, that if I died or happened to be killed, accidentally or otherwise, the Si's (it turned out) warned they would destroy the U.S.? They were quite adamant on that point...and it perhaps was the main reason I wound up finding you. Now, you understand...I myself have no power to control weather, attack NASA's rockets, etc., attack the Air Force activities, etc. The Si's do all that. I am the "middle man" telling other humans what the Si's are going to do, before they do it...so that the other humans will know the reality, and the various powers, of the UFO intelligences. In that respect I have incalculable value to the Si's. Actually, there is no one else that can do it. That is why I am so valuable to them. They are counting on getting me isolated, eventually, so they can get to me, to arrange a meeting with U.S. Govt. officials. This is important to them, and most important to the U.S. Govt. Last night, to get to the point, I was shocked when they communicated with me and told me why they caused the great tragedy at Cape Kennedy in which 3 astronauts were lost. The reason? The U.S. Govt., instead of giving me the protection I asked for in 1965, had allowed my life to be jeopardized...threatened...by a fire that was set, deliberately, underneath our apartment January 2. Just a few more minutes undetected, and my family and I would have gone up like a match in this old building. They had planned to merely harass the Moon Shot, and bring about a mechanical failure that would force abandonment of the flight. But when they monitored the near-catastrophe to their one and only link with humans...they decided to show the U.S. Govt. their feelings in the matter...and brought about the stiffest possible punishment they could think of at the time. (The fire in our building happened Jan. 2; the Cape tragedy happened several weeks later.) One of my Sota members, Earl Mack, dropped in last night and pointedly, several times, reminded me that the U.S. Govt. undoubtedly would have me killed, to eliminate a "threat" to U.S. security. After he left, the Si's contacted me and gave me the above startling information. It would be well for the Govt. to remember...even with me gone, the Si's, if they did not destroy the U.S. as they say they will...could go on being destructively hostile...my being gone would not change a thing, since I have no power of my own. The U.S. would simply lose its one really important link with the Si's and their intelligence. Always remember their tip on the North Viet attacking our carriers...and their tip was correct. P K Man (Owens) === Page 5 of 38 Sunday, Feb. 26, 1967 Mr. George Clark, CIA Dear George: The Si's have just communicated with me, and asked me to send the following intelligence on to the U.S. Government: They, the Si's, have severely punished three of the top U.S. Govt. agencies these past several months: (1) NASA (2) CIA (3) AIR FORCE NASA was punished BY THE SI's by having its moon hardware and astronauts destroyed, and the moon program delayed 1 year. CIA has been punished by the recent blow-up of its financial subsidy of NSA and other organizations...and this was quite a heavy punishment, since the lash-back of the blown activity included several negative, damaging ramifications. AIR FORCE has been punished by the Si's by knocking out two Blue Angels fliers, many Air Force plane crashes in the U.S., and just now...a devastating 32 cheating Air Force Cadets who had to resign. As I told you, several years ago when I visited you, this "PK" effect is constantly growing...like an ancient Egyptian curse. That is, the Si's are ever-increasing the scope and depth of their pressure against the U.S. Govt., in an effort to bring them around to paying attention to their requests and, eventually, to manage to meet with the top officials of the U.S. Govt. to make a base in the U.S. - and this would be done through their contact, myself. I told a friend of mine here in Phila. last year that it made no difference whether the Govt. believed me, or cooperated with me, or not...that the Si's phenomenon would go on, and would get worse. And my friend, a member of a scientific group, didn't quite understand this remark. But I think you do. The Communists and Red Chinese...are not the main concern of the U.S. Govt. The Si's are. Until CIA and the Govt. realize this, God help the U.S. Govt. PK Man (Owens) Owens === Page 6 of 38 Show Lornie this UFO article, too. Thursday, Feb. 16, 1967 Dear Rick: No, honey, I am never mad because I don't get a present. Look at all the times I couldn't get you a present, when we were travelling around, broke a lot. Besides, your card and letter were a fine enough present. Beau and "momma" are fine. Martha is changing, almost imperceptibly, into a heavier build...but not fat. Beau has shot way up, is big now. The government has not responded...and I agree with you, they will. Now I mean they have not responded with money or help...actually, Rick, they have responded, about ten times, to my letters. Will tell you about it some time. But what I am waiting for them to do is respond with financial help to get isolated and meet the UFO's in person, as they want to do. Don't worry about my proving how real my communications are with the Si's, Rick...it has been proved by now, without doubt and absolutely. For the past year I have been sending you and Lornie copies of all my letters, care of Pat. So you should know what I am talking about. What upset the Govt. the most, according to Swank, the scientist who is studying my work, was when I told them, against the Weather Bureau and against the Miami Hurricane Center, first that Hurricane Inez would turn right at Cuba and go to the U.S., and then when I told them that Inez would back up and take Betsy's track of the year before. Inez did both things...and Swank says he never saw people so excited in his life, as those Govt. people were, who were keeping tabs on the whole thing. The Si's killed the 3 astronauts in the spacecraft fire...because someone tried to kill Martha and Beau and I a couple of weeks before (Jan. 2) in our apartment building, according to the firemen who investigated the fire. I had actually predicted in my Year 1967 Predictions that astronauts in this year in a space shot activity would wind up in tragedy...and I predicted in August that the Si's would "chew up and clobber" the Moon Shot...which is exactly what happened. Happy Valentine's Day to you, too, pal. If you will give some thought, Rick, to making plans for the day when Russia attacks the U.S. with nuclear bombs (or China does, or both do at once) then you will be way ahead of everybody else, and have a better chance to live. Don't count on any plans ahead more than a year; two at the most. I am sure we will be attacked in that time. That is, during 1967 or 1968, and probably '67. === Page 7 of 38 Now, someone would argue that I shouldn't tell you something like that...might add to your anxiety, etc. Well, it adds to my anxiety, and I believe in facing enemies and fighting them... not pretending my enemies aren't there. Moses was told he was as nutty as a fruitcake because he was building a ship in the middle of the desert (no water around) just because God, or something, warned him to. Well, everybody who thought Moses was a nut...drowned. Moses was ahead of everybody else. And, incidentally...and fill Lornie and Pat in on this...my intelligences tell me that the Coasts are going to be destroyed in quick order...East coast first, West coast second, Gulf coast third. Then the exact center of the U.S. will be devastated, leaving only the "corners" of the U.S. relatively undestroyed. I plan to move, and settle into, the northeast corner, as far from New York as I can get. If you-all are smart, you will do the same. I'll be on the Canadian border, and if destruction begins, we will slip into the Canadian north woods and find a cave somewhere near a lake and dig in and to hell with it. We are going to survive. If you want a laugh some time, get Pat to tell you about the time she and I went to New York and got me a bullet-proof vest, then took it to New Orleans and tried it out with a .32. Ha ha. For a present, she bought me a bear-trap that you could put your hand into and snap it shut with a bang and it wouldn't hurt you. Get her to tell about the time we left a toilet-paper message for our landlord in Des Moines, Iowa. About the picnic we went on in the middle of a driving rainstorm and, I think, tornado. About the seances she was in, with me as medium, at Dr. Rhine's house, where I contacted ghosts and spirits. Get her to tell you about the time six guys jumped on she and I in Durham, and how we beat 'em. Get her to tell you about the time in Las Vegas we did our mind-reading act. You and Lornie will have a ball, if you can get Pat to tell you about those things. Don't worry about getting blue...everybody gets blue once in a while. I bought a picture of Jesus, once...in Ft. Worth, and hung it on my wall. Before you rush out and buy two tape recorders, check and double check to make sure you want to commit yourself to an idea that far. I do that, check myself, and sometimes back away from an idea because it is not good enough, or as good as I thought on thinking it over... or the poker odds on it are not good enough. But if I check it out and think it over, and it still sounds and feels right, then it's green light-go ahead all the way. My Sota deal in Fate mag was that sort. Be good now, or I'll tell Linda how you sat in that girl's lap in Washington D.C., you playboy you. 08/07/2025 17:11 Love -- Your pal Dad === Page 8 of 38 Tuesday, March 7, 1967 Mr. Rowland Swank Organization of Scientific Research Dear Rowland: I wrote you a week or ten days ago and told you I was going to liven up Philadelphia with a lightning attack, tornado, storm, etc. It just happened last night...whole town is flooded... water holes two feet deep in the streets...basements flooded out... cars stalled everywhere (all this according to radio reports). The Si's didn't throw in lightning, which puzzles me. Just tons of rain. And it's still raining, later in the day. The reason I didn't give you the date of the letter, and quote, is because Beau, my baby, got all my papers out and made a carpet covering the living room and kitchen...so that we are actually, literally walking on a carpet of papers. I can't find anything at this point. However, because he did this ... The FBI, the CIA and the Secret Service combined, could not have caught what we had in our apartment Sunday night. Now get this...the baby was asleep in front of us. Martha was sitting behind my right shoulder, and we were watching Porgy and Bess on TV. Suddenly I heard somebody walking heavily, very heavily in the kitchen on all the papers Beau had spread on the floor. I wondered why Martha would leave this good show and go into the kitchen. In a few seconds there was a tap on my shoulder. It was Martha, still sitting behind me. "Ted," she whispered, "who is that walking in the kitchen?" "My God," I said, "I thought you got up and went out there!" But she had no moved from her position. I got up and went out into the kitchen and turned on the light, and immediately was struck with the same feeling I had not felt since Durham, North Carolina, in about 1946, when Pat, my ex-wife, her mother and I were having a seance in their house...my hair stood on end, goose pimples broke out all over me, and I felt as if I were charged with electricity. This lasted only for about 30 seconds, then went away. So I knew it was no burglar who'd got in. Nothing could be seen. But we both heard this heavy walking around in the kitchen on the papers, thick on the floor. That's the point. I know absolutely, therefore, the Si's can come into our apartment, and cannot be seen, when they want, in some form. P K Man (Owens) Owens 08/07/2025 17:17 === Page 9 of 38 Sunday, March 5, 1967 3/5/67 p1 Lornie and Rick: This is an important letter, keep it with all the file letters I have been sending you. Since that couple, written up in Life, were said to have been taken by the Si's into a space ship, then the memory removed, and they lost several hours they couldn't account for...it made something click in my mind, and I used auto-hyp to check it out. While in Noumea, Caledonia, as a sailor, I used to take a little portable radio and hike up high onto a mountain near Noumea, all by myself. Up there high, alone, I could see far out over the sea. And I usually fell sound asleep for hours. Shortly after doing that, I ran across a book in the Red Cross library which got me interested in ESP. I began to experiment, and discovered I could read minds...and proved it with witnesses and signed statements. Then I read in a magazine about Dr. Rhine, wrote him, sent him my experiments, he wrote back and told me to come to Duke when I got back home. Many unusual things happened to me in Noumea...all alone one day, on the beach far from people, I sat looking out to sea...wishing I could get back to the U.S. alive and have children...when suddenly (there hadn't been a sound) little hands came over my eyes. I sat still, because for some reason it didn't scare me at all...although there were still a few Japs hiding out on the island. I turned around, pulled down the little hands, and there were three tiny children...two little boys and a girl, I'd guess about 5 or 6 years old. They didn't say a word, just smiled at me. Immediately, as if they'd told me in words, I knew that something had answered me...that I would go back to the U.S. and have three children. Now I have three children (speaking loosely, of course.) Now, after I got back to the States, I went to Duke, and I am going to tell you the many strange things that happened there. But first let me tell you this. I have a keen memory, absolutely. I can tell you tiny details of my childhood, the names of grade school teachers, etc. Yet there are parts of my life that are blanked out...which I have no memory of...and all of these blanked out portions are in the areas where I made long trips across country, desert and mountains, alone! I'll tell you about those later. Using auto-hyp, I have managed to bring some of it into focus, enough to give me the answer to it. At Duke I worked for Dr. Rhine...and Dr. Rhine investigated my strange powers thoroughly. My powers...for instance, I would be broke...and be walking along and find a $5 bill on the sidewalk. Or, I saw a rich boy with a pearl-handled pocket knife and wished I had one...then couple of days later Pat and I were walking downtown and I looked out into the street and saw a beautiful, expensive pearl-handled knife...and got it. If I walked down the streets at night the lights would go out all along my side of the street. If I dated a girl and we were at home watching her TV...the TV would go dead. When I was inside a building getting my freshman courses lined up...all the lights blew out in the building. When I would date girls...fountain pens would vanish from their purses. Earrings would vanish off their ears...gloves would vanish off their hands...and Dr. Rhine even had his assistants right therealong with me, double-dating, and it still would happen. I was used as a medium by the Rhines, and knocked a pair of scissors off a table about ten feet from where we sat, in full light. With my mind. And got knocks in a === Page 10 of 38 3/5/67 p2 Page Two radiator, consistent knocks in a pattern, to answer questions the Rhines asked. While surrounded by scientists...in full light...and with Pat there. Ask her, she will tell you. Then I discovered Granpa was badly, fatally, sick...in my second semester. I couldn't study, couldn't think, worrying about him...so, with no money and in light clothes, I walked away from Duke onto the highway, in the middle of winter, to make the long trip over the mountains, to Indiana and Granpa. I remember nothing of that trip after being picked up in a car by a man and a woman. I went to sleep in their car, and the next thing I remember I was on the front porch of Granpa's house. I have a vague recollection of offering to tell the couple's fortune in a roadside cafe in exchange for food.. but I believe they smilingly refused, we ate and left. Back at granpa's...one day he was shaving and the light went off over his head. I was sitting nearby and asked him if he wanted the light to come back on. He looked astounded, and said yes. So I told the light to come back on, and it did. He said, "T, I've seen you do some good magic tricks..but how did you do that?" The minute he died (I was alone with him) I saw him get out of bed, apart from his body which was still in bed, dead, come over to me and shake hands. Then he simply walked out the closed windows. Life went on. I went out to Texas with Jack. Married Pat. We travelled, Des Moines, New Orleans, etc. Then Pat's uncle gave us a lot of money, and this tool got us a car...and lo and behold...I began making long long trips, alone. On one occasion, however, with Pat in the car, we were driving across a railroad tracks and the car went dead smack over the tracks...with a train coming. I ran to a bar nearby, yelled to some men, who ran out with me and pushed the car off the tracks and the train went by. This was odd. While Pat and I were in Evanston, with double locks inside our front door, we left Lornie alone for just a few minute in the living room. When we went back, she was gone. We looked under furniture, in other rooms, she was gone. I unlocked the front door and looked down the flight of steps outside, and there was Lornie, sitting, playing with her toes. How she got through a double-locked door, before she could hardly talk or walk, is a mystery. I then made a trip down to Bedford in mid-winter to help granma, who was having an operation. I have no memory of driving down, or driving back. Then I made a long trip across the U.S., driving, through Texas to New Orleans...and should have been killed twice, but was saved by miracles. First, in San Antonio, I bought a magnum pistol. I drove out into the country to test it. I found a lonely, uninhabited spot, and set up paper plates all over the side of a hill. Then I got out my .38's, magnum, .25's, etc., and began target practice. I was walking along, firing, in a little flat valley. Pretty place. Solid ground everywhere, but no birds singing...not a noise. Was an eerie place. Suddenly the ground seemed to open up under me and I went straight down. The magnum pistol saved my life. It flew out of my hands, about five or six feet away...and my main concern, while sinking, was not to lose the pistol. I struggled somehow out, arms reaching for the pistol, and got it. The green ooze had sucked the shoes right off my feet, and I knew I was in a hell of a spot. After about a half of hour of maneuvering into a flat position, I wriggled like a snake out onto solid ground, and just lay there, wondering what the hell it was all about. I was covered with green ooze from head to foot, bare- 08/07/2025 17:17 === Page 11 of 38 3/5/67 p3 Page Three footed, with my magnum in my hand. Finally I got up and looked at where I had been. There was absolutely no sign of mud or anything. It was absolutely normal looking ground, grass and all. There was no sign of anything unusual. I gathered up my stuff and got out of there fast. Wait a minute...that was outside Corpus Christie, Texas, after I had left San Antonio. On the way back, across the mountains, atnight...the most unusual thing of my life happened...I was driving up a mountain in the dark of night. To my right was a sheer drop down hundreds of feet, no guard rail. To my left was a solid cliff. I could see the road up ahead, straight, for a far distance. I figured I was going the wrong way, Just then I came to a road, cut through the solid cliff to my left. I checked the long road up ahead...no car lights, and swung the car left into the side road, then I backed it straight out, cutting off the road completely for a minute. At that exact moment I saw, in my rear view mirror, car lights rushing down the mountain right at me, not far behind...I was paralyzed...the car was so close I had no time to do any-thin and even if I made a sudden quick move, I might go over the cliff. So I wrapped my arms around my head and waited for the smash. Then to my amazed eyes...I saw the car clearly in front of my car, going down the mountain road at high speed. It had passed right through my car! I know that sounds mad...but it is exactly what happened. I saw what looked like negros in the car, and an arm waving a bottle out a window. Shaken to the core, I quickly and carefully finished my backing move, and went down the mountain, found the nearest motel, and checked in. I called Pat, I believe, long distance, and told her what had happened. Then there was one other thing I remember about that long trip (and remember, these few things are all I can remember...I don't remember eating, sleeping, or anything other than these few details of this trip which took a week or two. I was driving along mountain tops at night when suddenly I saw a strange looking side road where no side road should be. It was about 10 at night, no cars on the road, and I was very sleepy. So I drove to the left off the mountain highway along this tiny road cut through solid cliffs. It came out on a flat plateau about 1000 feet in diameter. Except for a mountain side at the left, you could look for what seemed hundreds of miles out. It was an out of this world view. So I secured the car, got out my blankets, and rolled up on the ground and went to sleep looking up at thestars. I don't remember leaving there, and could never find the place again on my other trips along that highway, though I looked high and low. After that trip, my mind is hazy on what happened the rest of that year and the few years afterward. I only know I made many long, lonely trips. And do not remember what happened on any of them. I drove to Mexico City one time. In a rattletrap car. I do remember driving down clearly. A long long trip 1500 miles across desert. But coming back...ah, that is something else. I am puzzled how I got back. I had no money, don't remember buying gas, and hadno food. I did have some giant cigars I had bought in Mexico City, and smoked them. I seemed to drive and sleep at the same time. This is true. Also I read, while driving. Once I woke up, going 50 miles an hour down over an embankment where the road made a hairpin turn to the left. Somehow, I don't know how, I managed to swing the car around while it was whizzing down the 10 foot embankment 08/07/2025 17:17 === Page 12 of 38 3/5/67 p4 Page Four with a steel fence at the bottom, and run the car alongside the fence until I got it stopped. Then somehow I managed to get it back up the ten foot embankment onto the road again. I don't know how. Some time later at night, driving along the Mexican desert under the stars, I got so sleepy I pulled over...no other cars on the road as far as the eye could see in either direction. I got out my blankets, walked straight out into the desert about 500 feet from the car, lay down on the blanket and fell right asleep. The next thing I knew was a blazing hot sun beating down onto me. I opened my eyes. Things were moving around me. I stood up. There in a perfect circle around me were an army of tarantulas, each as big as my hand. They were moving, backing and forwarding, but keeping a perfect circle, and at about five foot distance from me. I would estimate there were at least 50 of the things. I scooped up my blanket and took a flying leap over the circle, ran to my car, and took off. I wondered why they hadn't got onto me while I was asleep. The sun was high, and evidently I had slept long. The next thing I remember is certainly weird...I woke up in the car, while driving, near a bridge. I wondered what on earth I was doing sleeping, and stopped the car for a moment. Just then I was hit from behind with a terrible smash, which threw me violently forward then whiplashed me backwards. It knocked me out for a minute. When I came to I was lying outside the car. I was mad. I got up, and there was this truck behind me, with two men in it, just sitting there. They didn't talk, didn't say a word, just stared at me. That is all I remember until I was driving out of Juarez into San Antonio. Now another weird thing happened. I must have been out of my head. I had no money to speak of...just a few dollars. So I drove to the finest hotel in downtown San Antonio, the Hilton, in my '36 Chevy, went in, and asked for small inexpensive room. They sent me up to...a penthouse suite. A $300 day layout. I stayed there for a day, sleeping, then they moved me down to a small room. No reason for any of this was given. When they moved me down to the small room, I got delirious...knew nothing for several days. Suddenly my mind cleared and I left for Los Angeles and you kids. How I paid the hotel bill, I don't know. Several years later, while working for Jack Danciger in Ft. Worth, I was driving from Ft. Worth to a tiny town in New Mexico, where Danciger had grown up, to get information on a story I was writing about him. When I got to New Mexico...I only remember three things. On the way to the tiny town one evening there wasn't a cloud in the sky...this was just before dusk. Except one huge white circle of a cloud...an immense thing...looked to be as big as one or two football fields, a perfect circle. I marveled at this, because there was no other cloud to be seen as far as the eye could see in any direction. And the cloud did not move. It was just there. And it didn't wisp or thin out. Was a solid white consistency. Then on the trip back in a few days across New Mexico away from the little town my car kept going dead, and I had to have it repaired in some town. Then one night, at about two in the morning, I noticed I was running out of gas. I pulled into a tiny dark town and there, to my surprise, was a filling station all lighted up. I parked alongside the gas tanks and this man walks up. Instantly I knew this man was a UFO creature. And this at a time when I wasn't even thinking about UFO's. He had green, slanting eyes. His face wasn't human...is all the way I can describe it. When he talked, and I deliberately got him into conversation...he had a strange weird accent...and I am familiar with almost all === Page 13 of 38 3/5/67 3/5/67 P5 Page Five foreign language accents. He spoke broken English. I don't remember even driving away, or the rest of the trip back to Ft. Worth. Back at Ft. Worth, I quit Jack Danciger because suddenly ideas kept coming into my head re how to heal people using light waking hypnosis. I began using these ideas, and people began getting well right and left. I put the ideas into a notebook, and soon the notebook was filled up, jammed with these ideas..........none of which I had ever encountered in psychology or abnormal psychology or the study of hypnotism. About this time Lornie and I found ourselves on a lonely road one night with the cigar shaped UFO near us. Much later, when the AMA ganged up and framed me with a lying man... Lornie and I got into our car and proceeded to drive around the United States in a complete circle...across mountains, across deserts. One night we were driving along the road in the Rocky Mountains...it was so pitch black you couldn't see a thing...there were thick trees lining the road on both sides. Suddenly in our car headlights...walked an old man. In the middle of the pitchblack highway. He couldn't possibly have seen a foot in front of him. Yet there he was, walking along. I stopped the car, and he walked over to us in the pitch blackness. He had a kindly face. I gave him our flashlight, so he could see. He smiled, and put his hand over my hand in an odd way, then walked off into the blackness. Lornie and I talked for a minute or two about how weird this was...and decided to give him something else, I forget what...so we turned the car around and drove up and down the highway, but there was no sign of the old man. He had just disappeared. Just one other miracle thing that has happened...while Pat and I lived in Evanston...we were driving in the downtown area around a circle-like thing in the center of the square...suddenly I saw an old woman in the rain directly in front of our car, in the rain, an instant before our car passed over her. I jammed the car to a halt and said to Pat "My god, did you see that?" She said, "Yes, an old woman. Quick, Ted, let's get out and see." We leaped out...and there was no old woman. No one. We had both seen her. Like the old man in the Rockies, she had come from nowhere, and then disappeared. I imagine Pat remembers this. One other strange occurrence...Pat and I were living in Evanston and I was working at Arthur Murray, teaching dancing. We were in our room one night, going to sleep, when Pat suddenly said, "Ted, there's something in the room." Then she let out a terrible scream. Out of the murky dimness of our room sprang an immense black cat right onto Pat, who was sitting up in bed. Our door was closed, so we don't know where it came from. After the experience of the fields...I now firmly believe that the Si's drew me out into lonely places...many many times...and blanked me out, then turned me loose again. Time and time again. This would account for my spot amnesia and behavior at times which was not like me at all. And I believe that Pat will now understand why many things turned out like they did. Let her tell you about the jeep at the top of the mountain...only me outside, and the brakes went off. I had the regular brake on, plus the hand brake. But they both went off. Now Lornie was tied with a rope inside the car, so she couldn't fall out while we drove 08/07/2025 17:17 === Page 14 of 38 3/5/67 p6 Page Six up the almost sheer side of the steep mountain. You must understand, only a miracle could have saved you two and Pat. Rick was being held by Pat, and Lornie was tied in, and the ton or two of jeep was plunging downhill backwards, picking up speed. I believe the Si's wanted to know what value I placed on you three. They found out. Pat used a judo roll and dove out the side with Rick, rolling on her back so Rick wouldn't be hurt. I hooked my left hand onto the inside of the roof, hanging onto the outside of the jeep, with Lornie inside not making a noise, as I recall, but just watching me. By this time the jeep was plunging full speed down the side of the mountain, backwards. I don't know to this day how I did it, or even got the idea, because there was no time to think...out of the corner of my eye to my right I saw a huge boulder, and I reached in with my right hand, still clinging to the side, and twisted the wheel, careening the jeep in a sharp curve at the boulder. The jeep hit, I flew up into the air, and was knocked out for a minute. When I got up, Lornie was scratched. Pat ran down with Rick...said she saw me pinwheel high up into the air, turning over and over. Probably my arduous and thorough judo training saved me and I broke my fall automatically. Anyway, there was no good reason why any of you three should have lived through that. Pat, by all rights, should have gone under the wheels of the jeep, or broken her neck in her dive. And tiny Rick was in her arms. Lornie had no chance at all, tied in with that rope. She should have gone all the way down that mountain in that jeep and smashed to pieces. Pat & I got a bottle of wine afterward and celebrated our "good luck." I have caught the Si's testing me, these past few months. They do it with dreams, believe it or not. They put me in situations...moral situations...and see how I react to them, in dreams. One night I dreamed I was flying (my usual dream) and it was wonderful. But down on the ground below were little Beau and Martha, trying to keep up with me. I flew far ahead, then circled, and went back to them. I wasn't about to fly off and leave them. And in the dream something seemed to ask me...if I could fly...far...would I be willing to leave Martha and Beau, and in the dream I knew it was impossible. I would not leave them on any account, for any reason...even if I could fly. I realized they were the reality of what makes my present world. And I have had other like dreams...clearly testing my thought patterns and moral patterns. You try covering up in a dream...you can't do it. IN a dream you are what you are, and you react as you really are. I believe the Si's had wanted to work with Pat. She and I were drawn constantly into lone, woodsy areas. The side of a hill one night outside Salt Lake City...to a cave in the darkness, one night at Spring Mill Park when Lornie was tiny...many places, many times. But for some reason Pat didn't jell with them. I think Pat subconsciously knew or suspected, and drew away from them...leaving me at key times, breaking up the efforts of the Si's to train her, for she and I were a natural pair together in this area. I am glad to be a part of the Si pattern, willing and able to work with them, trained by them. Perhaps it will come to something worthwhile. We'll see. Meanwhile, you imagine their frustration at not being able to break me loose from the City of Phila. into the lonesome woods again. Love, Dad Owens 08/07/2025 17:17 === Page 15 of 38 Tuesday, March 7, 1967 Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: Have two important things to tell you: (1) A price has just been put on the head of any Kennedy... Jackie... Robert... Ted, etc. This information comes from the Si's... who have given you accurate information before, as you well know. From this day on, they say, no Kennedy will be safe, anywhere, under any conditions. (2) Last chance to let me go to Viet Nam... and let the Si's follow and dissolve the war in favor of the U.S. Only they can do it. Last time I suggested this... Dunn saw me at CIA headquarters, and when I said Pres. Johnson would cry in the future... he evidently thought I was a nut, and showed me out. Well, Johnson did cry... not once, but several times, and it was described in the newspapers. So I was 100% right, and not a nut. And Dunn was wrong not to hear me out. If you don't send me to Viet Nam, and let me have a crack at ending the war with the help of the Si's... the U.S. will have its worst disaster in history. That's a promise. The Si's say so. You might as well start listening to the Si's. You've got everything to gain... and not much to lose, at this point. CIA was just dealt a hell of a blow, as you know. It could do worse... than make friends with the Si's. Sincerely, P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce, No. 33 Phila. Pa. Owens 08/07/2025 17:17 === Page 16 of 38 Lorne, Rick, Pat March 9, 1967 To All Sota Members - A Special Letter One of our Sota members, has come into a lot of action with the Si's, who are evidently very interested in her. Sota Member#114 Dr. Irene Kavula 2 Cliff Street Wolcott, Connecticut First of all, Dr. Kavula received her Sota ring...and shortly thereafter felt absolutely driven to sit down and write a newspaper article in defense of the Si's. She did so, and submitted it to a newspaper and it was published. Enclosed is a Xerox copy of same. Then Dr. Kavula began to see various phenomena on her TV screen that has occurred in my own apartment, as written about in "Searchlight." She also saw a UFO with her own eyes, in the area of her home. Then the newspapers began to print accounts of UFOs being seen all around her area. For instance a UFO was seen in Bridgeport, Conn., in her area, on February 20. It was seen and observed for a space of 30 minutes by a police officer and other people who were with him. On Oct. 1st a picture of a UFO was taken in New Haven, 17 miles from her home...and printed in Saucer News, Spring Issue. This date was important, Oct. 1st, because she had written her article re the UFO's which appeared in the newspapers Sept. 29! This same UFO was seen by Dr. Kavula. UFO's also have been seen and reported in the papers in Prospect, Conn., and Thomaston, Conn....all within several miles from her home. She reports "It seems that ever since I joined SOTA, and have had my mind on the Si's, that they have been sighted in and around Connecticut, and especially near here." I suggest that you drop Dr. Kavula a line, and ask her what she is doing right...for she is the Sota member getting the most action at this time with the UFO intelligences. P K Man (Owens) President, The Sotas 1114 Spruce, No. 33 Phila., Pa. Owens === Page 17 of 38 March 20, 1967 Mr. Russell Swank Systems Management Analyses - Organization of Scientific Research Dear Russell: I really enjoyed talking to you today, and was most interested to hear of the large UFO seen in Wynnewood nearby over the weekend. Not a thing in the papers on it, though...? Am confirming, for the record, in writing, what I told you today... Am asking the Si's to double their intensity in another attack on aircraft in the U.S. in the coming days and weeks ahead. This should produce a startling account in the papers of planes down everywhere, under all conceivable conditions...and more heavily in numbers than the last "demonstration." I just hope they don't get tired of constantly proving their point the same old way. I'll also ask them to try and keep from killing or hurting anyone. That's pretty tricky... knocking down planes and keeping the occupants safe. But they did it once with the astronauts, and they have done it since on other times. Always the papers say it is a miracle no one was killed or seriously hurt. Also...I told you how Shiekan broke his foot last week, and is on crutches up at the office. And Steinberg had a heart attack Wednesday and is in serious condition at Pennsylvania Hospital. Today found out that two different secretaries...Marylou Schienblum and Sylvia Gross... both had separate car crashes last Friday. Marylou had her car wrecked completely. Sylvia was badly hurt in a whiplash, and is under intensive doctor's care. Also Miriam, who works in the filing room, had to go to New York over the weekend because her uncle had a heart attack there. Enclosed is the article I sent you, but you didn't get. It is my hope that you will, one of these days, sign and return to me the confirmation I sent you some time ago. Or some confirmation. It would motivate me much more better. (Alliteration, and who cares?) P K Man (Owens) === Page 18 of 38 March 23, 1967 Dear Rick -- I enjoyed your letter. Teddy was on Ed Harvey's "Talk of Phila." radio show.

Glad to hear you've found out what a girl is. Good luck with Lynda. She sounds like fun. Remember that wild blonde that sat in your lap in Wash? Laugh, I thought I'd die! So mom says write books. Sure. I type 90 words per minute all day in my law office -- by Sat. so tired I can't wiggle. Somewhere in there I write a book? Hah. Couple of people in school you don't like? Grandpa told me once there'd always be one or two bad things I'd have to take to get the goodies. Life's just that way. Don't let "those few" stop you from being a winner, eh? Beau talks eloquently now. He's brilliant. But he gets hurt too much. Always hitting & bumping his head on things. Julio must be a right guy -- if you and Lorrie pass on him. No, I didn't say I have 150 in the lotas. Only 22. My first one I gave the no. 101, so he wouldn't feel lonely. Too bad Jim accidentally broke the TV set. Well, accidents will happen.

Thought you'd appreciate seeing them. Love, Dad Russell Swank, Organization of Scientific Research Dear Russell: (1) In my predictions for 1967...I predicted a possible large earthquake for Denver (one of three cities) and it just had its largest quake in history, 5 1/2 on the Richter Scale. But the damage I "saw" in my mind did not materialize. (2) One of the predictions I made to the four office girls has come to pass...that the UFO's would be seen and reported on a big scale. They sure were. Last Saturday on the radio, KYW, it was reported that hundreds of school children and their teachers watched a flying saucer maneuver for ten minutes in Florida. That same night on Channel 3, TV, the same announcement was made. Not one word in the local papers, or the N.Y. Times, or the Miami or Tampa newspapers. Not a word one. Which shows what a tremendous suppression job someone is doing on the news. But there is more. While checking the Miami paper I discovered that last Friday a Phantom Jet crashed there. This was not reported in the local papers or N.Y. Times - further, on Saturday, the day of the UFO, an airliner with over 100 people had a close call and had to belly-land at the Miami Airport. This was not reported in any of the above-mentioned papers..just the Florida papers. Therefore, in keeping track of my airplane incidents I am not getting the news in the local papers or the N.Y. Times. So I can't tell how many planes the Si's are forcing down, because "they" now seem to be restricting that sort of news to local areas. It's something new. (3) Martha saw that "creature" that dropped down beside her on the balcony not long ago...in our kitchen the other night. It popped its head out from underneath the stove. She said it had an odd "band" that ran up the middle of its face back over its head. She had never in her life seen any animal like it, if that is what it was. I couldn't find it, but I know her, and she was not imagining it. (4) Am "planting the seeds" now for beautiful hurricanes, to come sweeping and swooping in on the Electro (Florida) target in the weeks and months ahead. Am working especially for another "earliest hurricane on record to hit the U.S. mainland." Well, I was successful last year...why not again?

Dryden, Deputy director of NASA, died. Lovelace, Chief of NASA, killed in crash. One Astronaut killed by a bird that flew into his plane. Two Astronauts killed in plane crash. General Branch of NASA killed in crash. Three Astronauts killed in Apollo mishap at Cape K. Kris-Kraft, NASA head, plus 13 top NASA officials, attacked by gunman on plane. We must add the destruction by fire of The Space Eye, only one of its kind in the world, in Cape K. area. Also we must add the hurricanes which attacked: Hurricane Cleo Hurricane Dora - all three sideswiped Cape Kennedy Hurricane Dora Hurricane Gladys missed, but just the same tore up the work at the Cape K. for a time. Hurricane Hilda made a bullseye on the NASA Michoud Space Complex. Hurricane Betsy made a bullseye on the Michoud Space Complex, and also made a bullseye on NASA's Bahamas setup. The ones that got away...got by the Si's (UFO intelligences) McNamara's Minutemen from silo, Cape K. Gemini from Cape K., 1/'65 Explorer Satellite, 12/'64 Minuteman 2 from Cape K., 12/'64 OSO, 1/2/65 Cape Rocket, 2/17 Cape Rocket, 2/18 Gemini 3 Ranger 9 Gemini 6-7 New Polaris, Cape K. Surveyor Moon Rocket Lani-Bird II That's it. === Page 22 of 38 4/21/67 p3 Page Three Let's recap. I notified Cape Kennedy and other government agencies in 1964...that Cape K. would be attacked by hurricanes, lightning strikes, and all shots going up from there would be affected by "PK" (now explained as Other Dimensional Effects from the UFO's). When I talked with you in Washington...I warned you that this force against NASA would increase as time went by. It did, and the latest explosive culmination of the force was the Apollo disaster with the loss of the three Astronauts and the program delayed for a year...not to mention the other disastrous side-effects. As you know...after my warnings...lightning struck a lightning-proof pad at CapeK...and the next year (the day I went on the Jack McKinney radio show here) lightning again struck a rocket pad, actually striking some workers on the pad. Again, lightning struck very near Gemini 5...or actually struck the wiring. Speaking for the Si's...I can assure NASA that they will create more "Apollo disasters" in the future, and keep the NASA program in a semi-helpless state...until their wishes are met, and you know what that is. Govt. aid to me, their middle-man and spokesman, to enable me to meet with them and set up a meeting with top govt. officials. There is no possible way humans can cope with the Si's and their effects from another dimension. There is no possible way we can force the Si's to change their minds...or make them do anything in our way, only their way. The Air Force and the U.S. Govt. proper have also been severely racked up by the Si's...but this report concerns only NASA. It is much later, in Si time, than NASA thinks. I've said it before, and I'll say it again and again...somebody had better get together with me, in a constructive way. The future of NASA depends upon it. NASA has already lost billions of dollars in destroyed space work, and lost good men...from the strange workings of the Si's, who brought it about...and are enabling me to tell you about it these past three years. It's way past time...someone in NASA listened, and paid attention. Remember when I warned you in your letter that the Si's said...what if they destroyed NASA? Then after that Kris Kraft and all the officials had a close call on the airplane with the kid who put a gun to Kraft's head and pulled the trigger, then shot through the floor of the plane? And in the Apollo disaster...this, in a big general way, very badly crippled NASA. You see my point. The Si's are not limited to one method of attack...they utilize unlimited methods of attack. Quite unlike humans. Sincerely, PK-Man Owens === Page 23 of 38 April 2, 1967 Mr. Trotwood, P.A.S.A.

Their answer was.....for NASA, or the U.S. Govt., to furnish me with the money I need to become isolated to meet them, for one year.....then they will consider deflecting their destructive mechanisms away from Cape Kennedy to allow experiments there to succeed. I reminded them that recently I had a bit of luck in bringing their story out to the public. And they told me they would pay back the U.S. Govt. in kind, in their own way, for this.

Watch for blowguns.........." Today, April 23, 1967, in the Phila. Bulletin, appeared the following news clip: "USE POISON DARTS, VIET CONG URGED. Saigon, April 23 (AP)- Vietcong documents captured recently by American troops suggested that terrorists begin utilizing poison darts and blowguns as a means of assassination, the Army reported Sunday. The weapons were particularly recommended for use in Saigon and other crowded cities, and at night, when a gunshot would attract attention and possibly result in capture of the terrorist."

(2) Rocket Trouble Handyman In Poor Orbit CAPE KENNEDY, Fla., April 6 (Thursday) (UPI) -- A new Handyman satellite ran into rocket trouble Wednesday night and was stranded in a poor orbit that was expected to hamper its mission. The satellite, designed to stretch four booms to a record 251 feet in orbit, fell victim to an errant Agena upper-stage rocket that failed to drive the spacecraft properly into its planned 6900-mile-high circular path. It left it, instead, in a long, egg-shaped path. The trouble was blamed on a fuel valve that failed to close properly. Scientists received an indication that there was a problem a few minutes after launch, but this was not confirmed until three hours later. The multipurpose moonlet, equipped with a pair of weather cameras, was supposed to soar into a circular orbit 6900 miles high. To reach it, the Agena had to fire twice and coast a record one hour and 40 minutes between firings. The indication of trouble was radioed back from the rocket as it shut down its engine for the first time. The satellite was the second of five Applications Technology Satellites designed to test new techniques for future weather and communications spacecraft.

S. satellite circled the globe in the wrong orbit today, its mission ruined by a rocket engine failure. The failure apparently doomed a plan for the satellite to transmit television pictures from space that could be seen "live" on television sets in American homes. The satellite--called ATS for Application Technology Satellite--rode an Atlas-Agena rocket into space last night from Cape Kennedy. The Agena upper stage hurled the 815-pound payload into a preliminary orbit ranging from 114 to about 7,000 miles high, but after it fired, a fuel valve failed to close. With the valve open, the engine could not ignite a second time to shove the payload into a 7,000 mile-high circular orbit, and it continued in the long elliptical path. However, the satellite, as planned, deployed six long stabilization booms that gave it the appearance of a giant spider and the nickname of "Daddy Longlegs." The booms, extending to a span of 251 feet, were part of an experiment to use the earth's gravity as a means of keeping one side of the satellite always facing earth. But they were designed to operate at the high circular orbit. In the circular orbit, the earth's gravity pull would have been the same all the way around. But in an elliptical orbit, the pull varied in relation to the changing distance from the earth, causing the satellite to spin out of control. A television camera aboard the craft relayed pictures of the boom deployment to a ground station in Australia. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration had hoped to use this camera to transmit live pictures from space to home viewers through the TV networks. === Page 27 of 38 Sunday, April 16, 1967 Mr. Ed Hervey, WCAU Dear Ed: Last week a plane crashed in the Pa. mountains. Not a word of it in the papers...heard all about it on KYW radio. The plane crashed, and the man in it was not hurt. He managed to find help, and was taken to a hospital for examination. Hours later they found out he'd been in a plane crash. But they couldn't get back to the plane that night because of heavy fog. In the morning when the authorities found the plane in the remote mountain area...all its instruments had been removed. Now who do you suppose did that? It could easily have been the Si's...to examine the instruments to see how better they can bring down planes without killing anyone. Now let's look at our plane record since I last wrote you about Johnson's plane trouble. "KENTUCKY CRASH KILLS 9 ON PLANE" - Lexington, Ky. April 3. It was run by Piedmont Airlines and Lexington Air Taxi Service. What was interesting was that Piedmont would not identify the passengers, and Lexington refused to name the pilot. "PLANE CRASHES IN FOG, PILOT NOT BADLY HURT" - Quakertown, April 7. Man crashed in his plane; only had some face cuts. "5 AMERICANS MISSING ON FLIGHT IN LAOS" - plane and Americans vanished. "JET LANDS 105 SAFELY WHILE ENGINE BURNS" - N.Y., April 8, an Eastern Airlines jet with 105 people aboard made an emergency landing at Kennedy International Airport after one of the plane's engines burst into fire after takeoff. Passengers climbed down ladders. No injuries. "ICBM DESTROYED" - Vandenberg AFB, "A malfunction forced Air Force scientists to destroy a Minuteman ICBM. "TEXAS WINDS DAMAGE 100 ARMY HELICOPTERS" - Mineral Wells. "A base spokesman said winds up to 70 miles per hour battered Downing Army Heliport" and wrecked about 100 Army helicopters. Now, get this...Friday, April 7, a Phantom Jet crashed at Avon Park out of Miami, Fla. Next day hundreds of school children and their teachers watched, in broad daylight, a flying saucer play peekaboo with them outside their school for ten full minutes. The saucer would go behind a row of trees...hover up in full view...go down again...etc. That same day, on the front pages of the Tampa Tribune and Miami papers it was reported that an United Airlines jet with 102 aboard made an emergency belly landing at MacDill AFB. They put down foam but the plane missed the foam...and landed okay anyway. No injuries. I had to get all this news from the Florida papers about the planes; nothing in the local papers or N.Y. Times. The UFO sighting came from KYW radio and Channel 3 TV, Phila. P K Man (Owens) Owens 08/07/2025 17:34 === Page 28 of 38 Sunday, April 16, 1967 Mr. Rowland Swank, O.S.C.A.R. Dear Rowland: Well, NASA has suffered the tragedy at the Cape with the astronauts... and just lost the giant camera-carrying satellite...and still have chosen to ignore the Si's, and myself. Therefore I can only say that the usual is going to happen...all of the Si's ODE forces will be brought to bear on the Essa shot going up tomorrow for the soft-landing on the moon. They usually get their NASA rocket; only miss very occasionally. So am sure disaster will overtake tomorrow's shot...the Essa rocket with its built-in shovel. The Si's will be after it, to destroy its mission. Interesting that Al Capp, the cartoonist, has a man bringing down NASA shots with double-whammys. Wonder how he stumbled on that plot format? Amazing...the Govt. refuses to give me $5,000 to carry out the Si's wishes...and loses billions. Well, that is exactly why the U.S. Govt. at present is doing so brilliantly at home and abroad, politically and militarily. Brilliant thinking. Save the nail, and lose the horse, and thus the battle. P K Man (Owens) Owens === Page 29 of 38 May 7, 1967 Mr. Leonard S. Buccellato 444 Saddle Lane GrossePointe Woods Michigan 48236 Dear Leonard: Would you believe...Leonard is 15 years old? I wouldn't. Ye gads. Thank you for the most intelligent letter, Leonard. Let's start with the end-question first. "Should the people know of my 'mission' and of the intelligences." Leonard, they had better know...the future of the U.S., and ultimately the world depends upon it. I am the only human able to communicate with the Si's and prove it...and the Si's...well send 50 cents to I. N. Service, Beckley, 3 Courtland St., New Brunswick, New Jersey...ask for the Searchlight book on the Sotas and H. Owens...and your questions will be answered, mostly. Do that, Leonard, without fail. Now, to your questions: I, too, believe either that Christ was one of these Si's (saucer intelligences) or a human who could communicate with them and use their powers. How do I know what I am doing is not ESP? Because I have, by now, predicted to scientists and govt. agencies on five occasions the oncoming appearance of UFO's...on some occasions where and when and what they would do. They are from both beyond our universe, and a zone of another dimension here around us, inside our universe. They can appear and disappear at will. Yes, they can use energy to form into matter, and reverse the process. I do not know how. There are different forms of Si's...some can appear instantly..others use craft for other purposes. They key purpose is to set up a base in the U.S., and from that base to stop all wars and bring peace and harmony back to theworld. No, they are not 'up to something'...if they wanted something for themselves, selfishly, they could take it at will...or destroy us at will. Sincerely, H. Owens, President The Sotas 1114 Spruce St., No. 33 Phila., Pa. 08/07/2025 17:37 === Page 30 of 38 May 10, 1967 Dear Rick...you sent a good letter. Your grades were okay...what did you get A and B in? Quite right about your PK ability and autohyp power...I was a teacher and "recharger", and you left your source of knowledge and power. You could tap power on your own...but you don't know how, and I hadn't taught you yet. When you left you were still a "baby" in the ESP world, and I couldn't teach you many things. Yes, I too hope we see each other, soon. Like I say, if so, bring your pool cue and we'll shoot 50 point straight. You can't beat Dad...but you'll sharpen up your game by playing a pro. Later on, you'll be able to beat your Dad. Sure, we ate good on the long trip. We ate better than I've eaten in Phila. Of course, we did eat in a funny way. Ha ha! Linda...well, she's 13, and has a cute personality, probably. Not too much character there, though...but how could there be? Hasn't had a chance to develop yet. You must be drawn to the fun girls, instead of to the "deep" kind. Be interesting to see how that department goes, as you grow up. I didn't mean to be critical of Julio, Rick...I don't even know him. He must be a dandy if you and Lorrie like him...nobody could fool you and Lorrie. You're too sharp. There was some writing on back of your envelope, so am enclosing it, in case it is important to you. Do you have a transistor radio? If not, I will send you one to replace that one we lost in Washington. Don't worry about Martha Ann, our little darling. She died to teach you and Lorrie an important lesson...not to go off and leave loved ones...to cherish those you love. You won't find many loved ones in this old world...they come few and long years between. So stay close, and take care of their love. Dad, the Predicter, warned you after you went off and left her the first time...and I had to drive back 100 miles and find her myself with ESP...that you'd lose her. So it happened. You've got to take care of what you love. Or you'll lose it. But...the way to look at it is this...you had lots of real love with Martha Ann, and lots of happy memories. Nobody or no thing lasts forever...everything finally passes away...so be happy with the love you had. She gave you, and me, all the love her little heart could give. Could we ask for anything more? And we gave it back to her, and she knew it. She didn't want any more than that. I loved her so much that when she got sick in coast town I was afraid to go near her, or look at her, for fear we would lose her. Funny reaction. Always remember...if you lose somebody you love...don't mourn...but be happy you had their love, and the memories of them. For that is all that really counts. Listen, son, there is a venereal disease epidemic hitting the States. That means, simply...that you can catch horrible disease from any high school girl, or girl...unless you are very careful. Two ways you can catch it...by kissing, or by having sex with them. Wearing rubber prophylactics won't even save you, if they are infected. So, please be careful, for your own sake. And warn Lorrie. Get Pat to enlighten you further, although you could probably enlighten her, and me. It's too important a subject to be bashful or backward about discussing. Am sending some of our recent pictures for you and Lorrie. Be sure and show them to Lorrie, too...they are for both of you. Listen, I want an 8x10 pic of you, and a wallet size. And I will pay, don't argue. Get it done, and let me know the bill. That's an order. Love, Your buddy, Dad Owens === Page 31 of 38 Friday, May 19, 1967 Mr. Jim Moseley Saucer News 303 Fifth Avenue New York, New York Dear Jim: I guess this is the correct place to write, since it was on your stationery. Or should I send your correspondence to Ft. Lee? Anyway, thanks for your card. Will be good to see Saucer News about the middle of June. Will it go on news stands, too? Am asking the Si's to deal NY another power blackout, or show their craft there in a striking way...or do something big and mysterious...before June 22...in NY, to help boost interest in the Convention. Am sure you will get powerful results. Something exciting and unusual. Should affect power and electricity, when it happens. Just one thought, however. I hope there is no misunderstanding on their part. Recently there have been a couple...dozens of tornados instead of the hurricane I asked for, was one. I hope they don't misunderstand this, and demolish New York,...instead of putting on a demonstration. Ted Owens (P K Man) Owens === Page 32 of 38 May 19, 1967 Mr. James E. Webb N.A.S.A. Dear Mr. Webb: I refer you to my letter of May 21, 1966, in which I carefully explained...that there would be only failures and catastrophes at Cape Kennedy without the friendship of the UFO intelligences...whom I represent, as an agent. Following that, of course, there has been a horrendous string of lost rockets (Biosatellite, etc etc.) and the astronaut tragedy...and the even worse following catastrophe of both public and Administration wrath toward NASA. A pity that I am not taken seriously. P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St., No. 33 Phila., Pa. Owens === Page 33 of 38 Monday, May 22, 1967 Mr. Jim Moseley Saucer News Dear Jim: I quote the following from the New York Times yesterday, May 21, 1967: "ST. ALBANS BLACKED OUT." "St. Albans section of Queens was blacked out for nearly an hour and a half last night in the area bounded by Linden Boulevard, 114th Road and 196th and 202nd Streets." Since I had written you a few days before that, stating that I would ask the Si's to black out New York...it is most interesting that this seems to be a beginning. Remember that...the approach or nearness of their intelligences and/or craft will stop or block most power operations...such as electric, magnetic, electro-magnetic, etc. All the books say it is because of the power from the Si craft, that cars, etc., are stalled with dead batteries and dead radios. But my Si's have explained it to me differently...the Si's exert a force over the area near and around them, to silence all power sources...so that messages cannot be relayed to other points for help, or to attack them. i.e., if your car is on the road at night, and a Si is near...it will stop your car and stop your radio, holding you helpless to signal for help against them. Attack them. P K Man (Owens) === Page 34 of 38 May 26, 1967 George Clark Central Intelligence Agency Dear George: This is confirming phone call of today, as follows: Si's state that Israel...and our accompanying problem with Israel...has only one hope. That of Si help. And they offer to give their help at once, to save Israel and bring about peace there. The U.S. Govt. must secure my family, and send me to Israel just as fast as can be done. I am betting, or willing to bet, my life, on the Si's...against Russian brains and weapons in the hands of Egypt, Syria, etc etc. What's the U.S. got to lose to try it? P K Man (Owens) === Page 35 of 38 May 24, 1967 Ida Lewis 108 School Street Morton, Pa. 19070 Dear Ida: If you will look at my 1967 Predictions, you will see that it is beginning to come to pass. I mention "the blackest year for America"...and even now, this is beginning to take place, and will. Either Russia and China, or both, have amply stockpiled Egypt and its cronies with tremendous weapons with which to obliterate Israel. True, Israel has the best military force...but it will be like fighting a tiger with a fly-swatter, when Israel takes on Egypt and its cronies...with their new weapons. Nothing whatever will stop Egypt and its cronies from crushing Israel now. They have been told by Russia and/or China that they will be backed up against the U.S., if it steps in. I predict, therefore, the complete wiping out and obliteration of Israel (much as I like and admire Israel, which has nothing to do with my prediction.) Just as I have predicted the wiping out, and obliteration, of all U.S. peoples in Viet Nam. Now the #1's have a special message: They have told me to pass on the word to the U.S. Govt. that they will demonstrate their control over peoples minds by seeing to the complete and utter humiliation of President Johnson and fellow Democrats at the polls in 1968...if the U.S. survives to get to that point, which is in grave doubt at this time. They will defeat the present Administration leaders with every weapon at their command, the #1's will. P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St., No. 33 Phila., Pa. === Page 36 of 38 Monday, May 29, 1967 President Johnson Thesi's told me not to write you any more letters...but I want to confirm a prediction I made...so I might as well add some vital information the si's gave me this afternoon to send to CIA. First, the prediction...see my letter to you of April 5, 1967: (I am talking about "kamikaze" techniques which are going to be adopted by the Viet Cong..." ... to overrun those points with mass suicidal attacks of commandos to silence all communications." The part of my prediction that is yet to come to pass...is the suicidal attacks with planes and ships. But let's get back to the confirmation. In tonight's paper, Phila. Bulletin, UPI, May 29, Saigon: "Marine Lt. Gen. Lewis Walt...three star General, recently assigned to Washington, said the Communists had resorted to suicidal attack against the Allies." Now, today the Si's gave me the following information: Russia has just formulated a new philosophy. They have decided that the U.S. is now weaker than it has been in a long long time, due to confusion in the Administration...conflict between the peoples and the Administration...conflict between the U.S. and foreign countries, etc. They judge the rest of the world is finding the U.S. a villain. And they have discovered if we haven't the brains and the power to settle the hash of N. Vietnam by now, we never will. Plus the fact they have been preparing for nuclear war for years in a reality way (unlike us) by vast underground shelters...and by sneaking agents into our key cities with A-bombs and bacteriological weapons...Trojan horse technique. The A-bombs and bacteriological weapons all to be set into action on a signal from Russia. After all our key cities are stricken, they'll offer to what is left...to come pick up the poor people and put them to work in Russia as slaves. Mind you, not a missile has been fired. If we do lob missiles onto Russia, they will have struck first...their key people will be scattered out in satellite countries...and most of their people will be in under-ground shelters. Ours won't be, when their missiles come. And now, with some new weapons they have, which we do not have, plus the above, they are ready...after all these years. It is no longer a Mexican stand-off, because they are prepared and ready to strike. The Si's thought our U.S. Govt. ought to know this. P K Man (Owens) 1114 Spruce St., No. 33 Phila., Pa. === Page 37 of 38 May 29, 1967 Mr. Tim Beckley I. N. Service, Searchlight Dear Tim: Just a note to point out that in my letter to you of January 18, 1967, I said: "Today called them (Roland Swank) and warned of a large earthquake to occur within days, or several weeks at the most, on the West Coast. Will be 6 or above on the Richter scale. A very damaging one. The Si's told me about it today...they will make it happen." The earthquake hit Denver, Colorado, on April 10...later than I had thought. There were widespread reports of damage up to points 120 miles away. The earthquake was so severe it knocked the needle off a seismograph at Regis College in Denver. This was the worst earthquake in history to hit Denver...since it was rated at 5.5 on the Richter scale of 10, and previously the worst quake to hit Denver had been 4.3 on Nov. 21, 1965...so nobody could say, well, this was just another quake. Ted Owens (P K Man) The Sotas 1114 Spruce St., No. 33 Phila., Pa. === Page 38 of 38 Monday, May 29, 1967 Lorne Rick Mr. George Clark Central Intelligence Agency, Wash.D.C. Dear George: Was glancing over my files last night...and find that I gave the U.S. Govt. rather accurate warning of the barrel situation the U.S. now finds itself over on the Egypt-Israel problem. (1) In my letter to you of April 15, 1966: "They (the Si's) are getting set to focus their strange wrath now upon the U.S. Govt., or symbols thereof (Note: Israel is an ally). And the U.S. Govt. can consider itself warned in advance...I pick up a thread of something they might have in mind...foreign countries and peoples rising up against us in masses...actively...to the point of a catastrophe...as has never been done before in the history of the United States, and dangerously so...." That was a pretty good call, George, although it did take a year to develop. But not long ago...Nov. 2, 1966, in my letter to Roland Swank, Organization of Scientific Research, I said: "The Si's warn that dead ahead in the near future...the U.S. Govt. is going to be stricken with a dilemma, a quandary, to beat all quandaries. The U.S. will be faced with a unique problem suddenly thrust upon it...and the decision that is made by Johnson and Co. will decide the fate of the U.S., ultimately." "...this happening will be BIG. Something tremendously important." Now, of course, it is clear that the threat of Israel being attacked and wiped out, with all other ramificationsX...is what the above two references pertained to. I had thought it might have been a decision Pres. Johnson made to bomb the Hanoi area...but now I realize this sudden, unexpected twist in the Middle East, which could poleax the U.S. if it develops the way it is going...was what the Si's were warning about.

Ted. === Page 3 of 8 Sunday, January 1, 1967 Rowland Swenk, C.S.C..R. I see by the newspapers that many "psychics" are foretelling the events of 1967. I disagree with most of what I have read...and you know from my amazing accuracy in the past...that I am qualified as a clairvoyant...whether I use a crystal ball, as the Dixon woman does in Washington, or UFO's for my source. (It amuses me that my work this past year has been much more accurate and astounding than the highly-publicized Dixon woman, and I have been performing my miracles in an absolute vacuum of silence.) Following, therefore, are the predictions of P K Man (Owens) for this year of 1967, and beyond. ---------- President Johnson. I once told Mr. Bunn of CIA that Mr. Johnson was a "bad luck Harry" and would cry. Since then (and the CIA man must have thought me a nut, for he immediately showed me out of the CIA building) but since that day Mr. Johnson has been described by reporters, and photographed, as crying several times. Now, in time ahead he will go beyond crying. He is walking into an area of darkness...of sadness...of tragedy. I predict that he will collapse of a heart-attack by April, for one thing. But there is more than that, all bad, for Mr. Johnson. The ironic part of it is...I could have saved him this, since the UFO's offered their power and their help, and he rejected it. The Si's tell me that Mr. Johnson has thought of committing suicide. And might do so, in 1967. Not with a gun or poison but with an "accident"...car crash, etc. Furthermore, I predict there will be a scandal in the Johnson family...not the "Kennedy Book" affair this time, but something involving either Mrs. Johnson or one of the Johnson daughters. The United States. 1967 will be one of the blackest years in the history of the U.S. During one part of 1967 hysteria and fear will fill the land, for the U.S. will be in the greatest danger of its history from attack...either from Russia or China, or both. May, in fact, be attacked. A NASA outer-space flight will end in tragedy for the astronauts. Nature and the weather will attack the U.S. violently with more than the usual ferocity from tornados, hurricanes, floods and earthquakes. A large city in the Western half of the U.S. will be damaged severely by an earthquake. Either Denver, Frisco, or Los Angeles, I believe. Then an epidemic (not flu or anything like that, but much more serious...not polio) will sweep the U.S. and have to be coped with. And an unusually large number of key military men and high government officials will die or be taken out of action in their realm of influence and activity. There will be more than the usual number of plane crashes and accidents; fires, and auto crashes. (Much more) There has been built and structured a hidden power structure composed of military men and scientists, who are interested in taking over and changing our government. (Not CIA) Their presence will not be known until the U.S. is in the midst of a crisis. These are not good men, and their murderous hateful work goes against everything America stands for, even though they rationalize what they are doing is "good for America." (Am not talking about Communists or any known group of revolutionaries.) During 1967 more will be discovered about UFO's and their intelligences than any other period in the past...because of the will of the Si's for this to happen, and their actions in this regard. The Stock Market will get worse and worse and probably crash, worse than '29. Our economy will go to hell. We will have to give up all our big plans to give money to foreign countries, to create a Great Society, to fight overseas wars...for we shall be too broke === Page 4 of 8 5/7/67 P2 Page Two to go on. At last, financial reality will sink into stupid U.S. brains and it will be realized that we cannot pour money into a bottomless yell any longer. And our fabulous giveaways of the past will remain in the past. Providing the U.S. is not destroyed... we will not repeat our mistake in this area, ever. I see the people of the U.S. bewildered, confused and lost...in a strange way as never has happened...in 1967. There are several rays of sunshine through the black clouds over the U.S. One is...the unparalleled threat which will confront the U.S. in 1967 will draw the white and the black people together in a common bond of survival. Also, a good man, now an unknown, will emerge, as Churchill emerged to help England, this year. He will be a "Lincoln" type...wise, uncorruptible by money or politics or people...good in depth. Such a man we have not seen in our history for ages. When he does come forth, the gangster Syndicate, the Mafia, the corrupt politicians...will all try to pull him down, and will fail. This man will have no connection with the revolutionary group now secretly planning against the U.S. government. And his life will be in danger from them. Startling discoveries will be made in the field of television...how the programs affect the minds of people...and this will cause sweeping laws and changes to be made in this regard. (Note: It is possible that some of these predictions may extend on and beyond 1967, provided the U.S. is not smashed by the enemy in 1967...since in this form of precognition it is difficult to judge time accurately as we know it. However, it is my belief that these events will occur in 1967.) The World. China in 1967 will grow infinitely more powerful than ever in history. She will close up Hong Kong. China will begin to take over that portion of the world from India (including India) down through Southeast Asia, and Australia. Russia will begin an overt takeover of Europe...and will clash with China over the Middle East like two dogs fighting over a bone. But China and Russia will unite to smash the U.S., at home and wherever they find U.S. representatives. Russia will try to use portions of West Africa and northern Latin America to set up bases and missiles...directed at the U.S. and Canada. Mexico treacherously makes friendly noises to the U.S. but in fact is in allegiance to Russia...is an ally of Russia. Russia and China are playing for big stakes...and like two pro wrestlers in the ring, are putting on a good show of fighting, for the benefit of the audience. However they have cleverly contrived a plan with which to destroy their powerful common enemy...us, U.S. And their plan involves using nuclear missiles only secondarily...their primary plan will be bacteriological warfare...poisons. If that fails, missiles. With all its vast power the U.S. cannot defeat the Chinese and Russians, just as Rome could not defeat the barbarians in ages past. The only hope for the U.S. lies in help from UFO intelligences, and I repeat once more that I am the key to leading the U.S. toward this help from the Si's. Perhaps, when my predictions all begin to come true, someone will show this to a representative of the U.S. government who will listen...then if there is time, we can reach the Si's, and obtain their help. For the Si's do not wish what is going to happen, to happen. Owens 08/07/2025 17:01 === Page 5 of 8 Monday, January 2, 1967 Mr. and Mrs. Siegel, Landlord Our room is now filled with thick smoke. You can thank Martha, or at this moment you would not have a building left at 1114 Spruce St. 15 minutes ago Martha told me she smelled smoke. We ran outside, and there at the foot of the stairs leading up to our apartment was a 5'x5' cardboard box filled with papers, crumpled and afire. Flames were shooting up along the wall, and the wall was burning. I rushed back into the apartment, grabbed two pans which were luckily filled with water (to take a bath because there hasn't been hot water in days) and threw it onto the fire. I yelled and got people out, and they threw more water onto the fire. We got it put out. Very lucky. The odd part of it is...never has there been a box of anything, let alone burning newspapers, placed at the foot of the stairs leading up to our apartment. I talked with firemen who arrived (somebody must have called them after we got the fire out) and the firemen told me that two minutes later the whole wall and ceiling and thus the building would have gone up like a match. They also told me they were fairly certain the fire had been purposely set...and they forced a nearby door to an apartment open to see who might be inside. You owe a great big thank you to Martha, I kid you not. If it hadn't have been for her your building would be a flaming wreck by now...and we are right at the top of the stairs. As a matter of fact, the fire was set exactly so that the stairs below us would be in flames, thus barring our exit. As well as the other people up where we are.

Dear Rowland: Look for a strong earthquake...over 6 on the Richter scale, to strike the U.S. in the Western coastal region (in a half-moon line, with one point of the "moon" in California and the other point of the "moon" in Colorado) just ahead, in the next few days, or several weeks (not more than 3). This quake should do some damage. P K Man (Owens) Owens Rick - The quake is being made with the "Emmy-Emma" technique. === Page 7 of 8 Lorne, Rick, Pat. January 23, 1967 Mr. Rowland Swank, Organization of Scientific Research (1) You will be interested in learning of more accidents and illness happening in my office to those around me. (See my recent letters on this.) I work for two men, one of whom is a partner in the law firm, Mr. Kerr. His wife and three children this past week have been sick in bed with ulcerated sores. Doctor calls it Herkes Syndrome, or something like. The other man I work for, Mr. Zatman, has his boy sick at home, being looked after by his wife, with a badly infected ear. Last week Zatman himself was sick with diarrhea. Remember the lawyer in my office whose brother dropped dead with a heart attack about two weeks ago? Well, his secretary, Dolores Reardigan, went home last week and found a colored man, burglar, ransacking her apartment. The burglar got in through a bathroom window. He took her valuables and escaped. Luckily he didn't harm her. Bernadette, the secretary who got the terrible black eye in an auto wreck, see past letter, quit her job this week. Gail Alloway, receptionist, injured her leg in a ski accident. Miss Sally Minter, office manager, was out of the office sick Friday. Alice, the switchboard operator, was out last week to go to the hospital for an examination to find out what is wrong with her. She is sick. I don't know what it means...but do know positively it is no happenstance. It has happened in the various offices where I have worked in Wash., D.C. and here. In Washington I worked for a while in a hotel supply office... and one of the men in the office stepped out the office door and was bitten savagely all over his leg by a dog passing by. Things like that. (2) I had closed my file on the airplane crash demonstration the Si's were putting on for the benefit of the U.S. people (govt.) But the Si's definitely were not ready to close their files. They were not finished by a long shot. I will now pick up where I left off in my letter of January 9, which covered the "storm" of airplane crashes up to Jan. 7. Jan. 9, 1967, a Navy bomber crashed and burned near Washington, D.C. It was out of Andrews A.F.B. in Maryland. Jan. 11, a 2,000 mph SR-71 Spy Plane was torn up when it had a landing gear failure during landing at Edwards A.F.B. in Calif. (This was the second Spy Plane (latest model) accident in two weeks.) Jan. 13, a United Airlines Caravelle made an emergency landing because of landing gear trouble, at International Airport, Jan. 17, a T-37 jet plane crashed and burned near Midland, Texas, out of Webb A.F.B. Jan. 17, a C-141 Military Jet Transport carrying 104 people had a door blow off at 33,000 feet. It made an emergency landing at Hawaii (was out of Travis A.F.B., Calif.) One passenger seriously injured. None of the passengers was sucked out of the plane because all had seat belts buckled on. A team of Air Force investigators flew out into the Pacific to find out how it happened. === Page 8 of 8 Pege Two "I warned not long ago that the Si'swere now going to strike among top officials. See recent letter." Jan. 18, a light plane crashed at Zelienople, Pa. Jan. 18, Fowler, 55, Chief of Air Reserve Training for the Navy, was killed at Glenview Air Station in Illinois. He was Commander of 18 Naval Air Stations across the country, with 38,000 aviation reservists and personnel under his command. I feel that this is part of the pattern, although he was not an airplane.* Jan. 18, Stephen Currier, a member of Mrs. Lyndon Johnson's beautification committee and a millionaire, vanished with his wife in their airplane. Jan. 18, another plane like that of the Curriers, and in approximately the same area, vanished off the Florida keys, carrying four prominent people...the Boardmans, etc. Jan. 19, a United Air Lines prop-jet liner with 50 persons aboard crashed into a snow plow while landing at Norfolk, Va., injuring seven passengers. The belly of the plane was ripped away and one wing torn off by the impact. Jan. 19, a Navy H-19 helicopter out of Camp LeJeune, N.C., was lost in the Atlantic ocean. Jan. 19, an Air Force KC-135 tanker crashed near Spokane, Washington. Incidentally, the Currier plane wreck, above, must have been important. They sent out the U.S. Navy guided missile cruiser U.S.S. Boston, and four submarines, plus 30 other planes and a Coast Guard cutter and two private yachts in the search. Planes in the search were from the Coast Guard, Navy, Civil Air Patrol, U.S. Air Force, Puerto Rican National Guard, the Canadian Navy and "other organizations." Friday, Jan. 20, was a big hit for the Si's. An Apollo Moon Rocket simply blew up, while enclosed in its giant gantry, in California. This was kept out of the papers...not a clipping on it I could find in Phila. or New York papers...but was described in TV and a motion picture was shown of it. One minute it was there being worked on...the next minute it just vanished, in a tremendous smoky explosion. And the gantry was destroyed. Jan. 22, two Marine jet bombers collided and crashed at Santa Ana, Calif. Jan. 23, a light plane crashed at Uniontown, Pa., killing three skydivers. I quote my letter again of November 23, 1966: "You can expect airplane crashes all over the United States, under all kinds of conditions, consistently, throughout the following weeks and months. It will be a storm...of plane crashes." I'll simply ask you, was I not right?

But that doesn't tell you who or what he really is. Let the man who knows him best do that, Ted Owens himself: "I am the only human being alive able to communicate two ways with the SIs, and prove it. I'm the PK Man." The SIs are Saucer (or Space) Intelligences. PK stands for "psychokinesis," the power to manipulate, move, or otherwise affect physical objects, through mental forces alone. The two are related. Ted Owens claims he gets his PK powers from the SIs. It all began, says Owens, in 1965. In order to support his wife and three children, he had already "mastered 50 professions," a bewildering variety including lecturer, jazz drummer, magician, hypnotist, bodyguard, boxer, private investigator, office manager, fortune teller, teacher of auto suggestion, instructor in knife throwing, designer of jewelry, psychiatric secretary, lifeguard, and last (of this incomplete list) but hardly least--rainmaker. He cheerfully admits he has no academic degree or official standing in the "establishment", yet it's a matter of record that he has an IQ of 150 (genius starts at 140), and for two years worked with Prof. J.B. Rhine at Duke University in various ESP experiments. In a private gathering with Rhine and his wife, Louisa, plus friends, Owens startlingly demonstrated his PK powers by causing a scissors to whisk off a table and fly for several feet without being touched. It all really began on that day in 1965...but let Ted Owens himself describe it (from his book--How to Contact Space People--Saucerian Publications, 1969): "While living in Fort Worth, Tex., my daughter and I were driving in the country one night, when a cigar-shaped UFO suddenly appeared at our left over a field, and came floating toward our car making no noise. It had red, white, blue, and green colors flaming vividly from it. Its nose was tilted down towards the ground. As we watched, it approached close to our car, then instantly vanished, just like a light turned off." At first glance, this seems to merely be one of the many vivid, although common, saucer sightings. But it was far more than that for Ted Owens, as he wrote: "From that day on, my life changed radically... While in Fort Worth I gave my daughter, Lornie, several demonstrations of making lightning strike in certain areas during thundershowers. I was playfully experimenting with a theory I had on the practical application of PK or psychokinetic power, to nature's forces." Notice the word "playfully." Owens was soon shocked to discover that his "playing" was real after his family had moved to Phoenix, Ariz., which at that time was in the midst of a bad drought. The idea to experiment with ESP for weather control came to me again, so I gathered my children together and showed them how I would make it storm. It did, so intensely that the city was declared a disaster area." We can infer that Ted Owens was more amazed at his success than he admits, and a bit dubious of his presumed PK powers. "To make sure that it was I who had brought this about, and not just a coincidence, I announced to my family we would make a series of storms--and I wrote to the local papers to that effect." Owens was certainly gambling, for it would be the first publicized demonstration of his PK powers--if he had them. The results were astounding. Ted Owens's past record--200 documented predictions and paranormal phenomena--is indisputable testimony of the man's unique role as a "go-between" for the Space Intelligences. For instance, in June 1967 he notified the U.S. Hurricane Center that the SI's would produce three simultaneous hurricanes. This had happened only four times before since 1886. In September 1967, Hurricanes Beulah, Chloe, and Doris were all active on the same weekend, something that the weather bureau admitted was "unprecedented" in modern times!

DARLING Of The Bulletin Staff A rainmaker has come to Philadelphia. He says he'll break the drought for $10,000--a bargain rate. "I'd want $50,000 to do it in New York," he said. He's been here since the first of July. He said he whomped up the big storm that hit the city the weekend of July 11--remember? -- the first and only soaking rain we've had since December. "It wasn't easy," he noted. "I had to work on it for more than a week." Working on it, he said, requires a combination of parapsychology and "some things my grandfather told me about the way the Apache Indians used to make rain." The rainmaker is a slightly balding, well-fed man in his middle 40s with a pleasant smile and an engaging personality. **Knife-Thrower in Circus** His name is Ted Owens and he was once a professional knife-thrower with the circus. "I'm probably the best knife-thrower in the country," he said, modestly. He wrote a letter to The Bulletin as soon as he arrived in the city and said he was working on a big rainstorm. He wrote another letter after the storm hit, pointed out that he had made everybody happy, and explained why: "I live here now and I do not like hot, dry weather. Therefore Philadelphia will be wetter and cooler than the rest of the U. S. this summer. The people here are lucky . . ." He also said he was working on another storm for Philadelphia for the next weekend. The rain came, a bit north of producing storms to the government. Ted Owens **Turned Down by Government** He took all three briefcases along to prove his point. But, he said, he couldn't make the right contacts. Since the government didn't want his information for free, he decided to try at least to make a living out of it. He said he came to Philadelphia because it is in the center of the present drought area and he wanted to interest some big cities in buying his services. He was reluctant to explain just how he went about producing a storm--not that there was any big secret to it, he said, but because it is a complicated business.

COAST To my old friend Wray Bentley - who doesn't like to make waves. Ted Owens PK Man Have we been sent--and ignored--messages from spacemen? Do the Saucer Intelligences control our weather, our civilization, our very lives with their incredibly advanced science? Has one man, Ted Owens, really been selected to "relay" their warnings and predictions? Do we have in our midst a # "SPOKESMAN" FOR THE UFO'S? By Otto O. Binder A letter to Pres. Richard M. Nixon, dated July 30, 1969, read in part: "The SIs told me that there is a plot already underway . . . has been completely planned . . . to kidnap you at your Key Biscayne residence (Florida). The 'bad guys' (Cubans) know how well protected you are . . . but they are going to strike at night, by water . . . with fast boats . . . with a highly skilled commando group of 50-100 men." The letter was signed, Ted Owens, PK Man. The Miami Herald on August 24, 1969--only three weeks later--carried the headline: SPY PLOT SHATTERS PROSPECTS FOR RENEWING U.S.-CUBA TIES. After revealing that Fidel Castro's U.N. diplomats doubled as spies, the text stated: "The U.S. public is likely to consider the recruitment of spies for a mission relating to Presidential security very much more seriously than guerrilla activities in a faraway land. There was, according to some reports, a James Bond touch to the recruitment plot . . . These reports claimed the plan was to study President Nixon's movements at his Key Biscayne home, using scuba divers as part of the surveillance team." On March 10, 1966, after years of drought in the Northeastern states, Ted Owens wrote to Pres. Lyndon Johnson: "I have some very good news: from the UFO Intelligences . . . to PK man . . . to you. The SIs have decided to end the entire drought on the East Coast. In the days, weeks, and months to come there will be rain, rain, rain . . . not just a little, not just 'above average,' but phenomenal rain . . ." From the Philadelphia Enquirer of July 22, 1967: "We were pleased to note . . . the admission by the United States Weather Bureau . . . that the drought which plagued the northeast corner of the country for the last six years, has ended." After citing that abnormal rains had been reported all through the northeast during the spring and early summer, it was stated that New York's reservoirs "could 08/08/2025 15:52 === Page 3 of 9 747 CRASHES BLACKOUT ASSINATED! 76'ers Lose Play-off Best wishes always to Gray Basket - a fine man.

The sunny days of blossoming flowers and awakening life were rare. The rainy spring led to an even wetter summer, as if nature was making up for the six years of drought all in one year. On October 26, 1965, a telegram sent to George Clark, CIA, Washington, D.C., held this alarming statement: "A rare warning. They (the SIs) will unleash a terrible catastrophe within 10 days." Signed: "PK man" (Owens). A little more than 10 days passed without incident. But on November 9, 1965, the Big Blackout hit seven northeastern states and parts of Canada, plunging 30 million people into darkness. Without electrical power for up to 12 hours, the lights of entire cities flickered out, machines stopped, and TV and radio went off. Emergency measures were required to rescue people trapped in stalled elevators and subway trains. Hospitals switched on their own power generators for critical operations. Was this what the telegram meant? On the morning of November 14, 1969, the Apollo 12 was in the final stages of the countdown, ready for lift-off to man's second moon landing. North of Cape Kennedy, in Virginia Beach, Va., three prominent citizens (their signed and sworn affidavits are on file) heard Ted Owens state that lightning would strike either the pad or the spacecraft. Seconds after the giant rocket roared into the overcast sky, the control crew at Cape Kennedy was alarmed to see a sudden drop-off of telemetered data from the spacecraft. Through an alternate voice-circuit, astronaut Charles Conrad told how lights had gone out within the spacecraft, adding: "I don't know what happened. I'm not sure we didn't get hit by lightning." The PK man had done it again. More tragic was the prediction in a letter of March 4, 1968, sent by Ted Owens to government agencies, relaying a warning from the SIs of the "destruction of one or more highly-placed U.S. Government Officials --by assassination." Within 12 weeks, Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy were killed by assassins' bullets. The above are only a few cases out of more than 200 documented predictions and paranormal phenomena originated by Ted Owens. Now, just who is this Ted Owens, the PK Man? He is a tall, broad-shouldered man of 50, with Illustration by Hal French 08/08/2025 15:52 === Page 5 of 9 a receding hairline, thin lips, penetrating brown eyes, and an IQ of 150. But that doesn't tell you who or what he really is.

Ted Owens, shown with his wife Martha and 8-year-old son Beau. Ted Owens's past record--200 documented predictions and paranormal phenomena--is indisputable testimony of the man's unique role as a "go-between" for the Space Intelligences. For instance, in June 1967 he notified the U.S. Hurricane Center that the SI's would produce three simultaneous hurricanes. This had happened only four times before since 1886. In September 1967, Hurricanes Beulah, Chloe, and Doris were all active on the same weekend, something that the weather bureau admitted was "unprecedented" in modern times! === Page 6 of 9 "It produced eight terrible, rocking thunderstorms complete with tremendous lightning displays, within a period of three weeks." Owens has signed and notarized statements from his family that all this is true. Now all of Owens's doubts vanished. "Electrified by my success, and knowing for certain that I had something, I wrote to government agencies and to many important people, but to no avail. No one would believe me. We moved then to Los Angeles, also in the middle of a drought, and I made some tremendous storms there." This too is fully documented. Owens was careful to document his apparent PK feats by telling various officials or prominent people what he proposed to do, then having them sign an affidavit before or after the event occurred on schedule. Some of these will be quoted later, in connection with more important events. But gradually, there came a greater revelation to Ted Owens. . . "Now, I figured that somehow I had managed to contact the essence of the intelligence behind Nature herself." This seemed to be so, because soon after, when Hurricane Cleo began roaring off the coast of Florida, Owens excitedly drew a rough map and told his family he would "control" the storm. He writes: "To the amazement of my family, the hurricane followed my map to the letter!" Now sure of himself, Owens then stuck his neck out. In October 1966, he boldly announced to the Florida weather bureau exactly what he was going to do--"guide" Hurricane Inez north from Cuba instead of west as expected, then make it backtrack and hit the Florida coast when all the "experts" said it would go out to sea. Inez followed Owens's "schedule" to the hilt. Weathermen admitted it was "unorthodox," almost impossible. Even more "impertinent" was Owens' notice to the Chief of the U.S. Hurricane Center in June 1967, saying that the SI would produce three simultaneous hurricanes. This had happened only four times before since 1886. In September of 1967, Hurricanes Beulah, Chloe, and Doris were all active on the same weekend, something that the weather bureau admitted was "unprecedented" in modern times. Obviously, if he really had this power to turn and guide hurricanes, Owens could perform a great service for the country. He thereupon bombarded government officials in Washington with letters, telling them what he could do and offering his "anti-disaster" powers. Some men, like Clark of the CIA and Eastwood of NASA saw him in person, and admitted a strong interest in his claims, but the regret was, as Owens puts it--"no action." If they didn't consider him a harmless crackpot (he does not resemble one), they were apparently hamstrung in their attempts to reach their superiors. Another big turn in Ted Owens's personal life came when he discovered that he had not, by himself, created or guided storms by some eerie contact with the "essence of the intelligence of Nature." It was some *other* intelligence, and he writes that, after moving to Washington, D.C., in 1965, "I discovered for the first time it was not Nature, but the **UFO Intelligences** who I had been contacting, and who had been guiding me." Owens had become aware of a "saucer flap" in the area, which was part of the great UFO wave of 1965-66. Then, quite unexpectedly, he received a message from the SIs telling him to inform the CIA that incredible magnetic phenomena would occur at the north and south poles. . . After sending this "prediction" to CIA man Clark, Owens wrote: "On July 8 (1965) all the newspapers carried a startling story: FLYING SAUCER IS REPORTED OVER TWO SOUTH POLE BASES! This huge disc-shaped UFO was clearly seen and photographed by many scientists of several nations, and they reported that it created powerful electromagnetic (per Owens's prediction) forces on their instruments. A bombshell burst in Ted Owens's mind. . . "I found out, with a jolt, that what I had been dealing with . . . were UFO Intelligences!" From then on, relates the PK Man, he was able to mentally "tune in" these Space Intelligences at any time. They arranged between them a series of phenomena whereby Owens would "predict" something and the SIs would make it come true. In some cases, they did this by beefing up his PK powers and letting him work the deed. In other cases, the SIs would do the job directly, keeping Owens informed. The result has been the 200-plus PK feats and incredible predictions--all apparently documented--that have flowed from Ted Owens during the past six years. Let's establish one thing here and now: Ted Owens is not a wild-eyed "contactee." He has never met an SI face to face nor has he traveled in their ships; he has not been whisked to their far off Utopian world nor has he eaten their exotic foods. Owens makes it quite plain, repeatedly, that he has only a mental contact with the SIs, that for some reason unknown even to Owens (as he himself freely admits) his brain is the ideal "receiving station" for SI telepathic messages, and most significantly, that he can "talk" directly to them on a two-way hookup. Owens believes that he is the only one on earth today with this remarkable ESP ability, and that in the past, perhaps only Edgar Cayce, Moses, and the wise men from some ancient civilizations had such direct SI contact. Ted Owens variously calls himself a "go-between" for the SIs in their dealings, or attempted dealings, with mankind; their "mouthpiece," their "front," their human "relay station" for messages. Owens constantly reiterates that he is not "responsible" for what the SIs do, even through his own PK powers, as they do all the planning and executing. Their purpose in all their paranormal doings, via Owens, is to prove their presence so that the authorities will listen to them (via Owens) and accept help. Whatever seeming "disasters" Ted Owens has been connected with, in the following accounts, the SIs claim they are here on earth to prevent a *greater* calamity. We will examine the motivations of the SIs more fully later on. Although Ted Owens has never been a UFOlogist or been active in the UFO field in any way, his special and personal relationship with the Saucer Intelligences has shed light on certain UFO phenomena in general. *EM-effects.* In answer to the question "Why do flying saucers affect cars and electrical instruments when they come close?," Owens says: "I'm glad you asked that, because the SIs just recently explained it to me. . . When they come into an area they want to investigate they throw out a 'net,' just like a fisherman throws his net overboard. . . They extend an electromagnetic net all around them that will trap and stop all power in that area in order to keep anybody from being able to communicate with humans outside the SI net, to radio for help, or to radio for airplane interference (from Air Force bases). . . Why don't Forest Rangers, who take care of our national forests, shoot bears and animals instead of tranquilizing them and tagging them? The SIs could actually destroy all humans in that area if they wanted, instead of throwing out a tranquilizing, power-stopping electromagnetic net." This implies (perhaps the most the SIs have revealed to Owens) that those landings which exhibit EM-effects are for the purpose of "tranquilizing" and "tagging" certain human specimens. This activity of course is not seen or reported in saucer sightings. We actually know little about the strange activities the SIs carry on when they mingle with humans. *Falls from the sky.* Though not always directly connected with sightings of UFOs, objects falling from the sky have been a riddle all through history. Huge falls of fish, toads, chunks of meat, blood--almost anything. Hundreds of these reports were collected by Charles Fort and these occurrences still continue in modern times. Sometimes they happen just after a UFO has flown over. And one particular substance--angel hair, a mass of odd fibers--has often been directly seen falling from a UFO. In answer to a question about a recent report of flesh and blood falling from the sky, and whether the SIs had anything to do with it, Owens provides a fascinating answer: "I don't think the flesh and blood fell from the sky. I think the flesh and blood fell out of the other dimension (from which the SIs come). In all the cases where I have read of a shower of fish or rocks falling from the sky, I believe it is caused by the SIs opening a crack in their dimension to let their craft in or out." Owens gives a more specific example in which he supposes that a UFO is rising out of the water and "they see people on the bank of the lake or the ocean, so they switch off into another dimension. But as they have come up out of the water, their power (EM field) might draw fish up with 08/08/2025 15:52 === Page 7 of 9 them, or rocks, or even people. When they switch on again into this (Earth) dimension (a moment later), in a different area than before, perhaps clear across the world, then those same fish or rocks or people--or parts of people--come back out with them and shower down." A rather gruesome explanation as to how flesh and blood might fall from the sky. Ruthless? Cruel? But if our spacecraft some day land on another world and the scheduled time for take-off comes, would the astronauts turn off their rockets just because a few natives or animals were within the blast area and might get burned to death? "Monster-men" and "Humanoids." Owens admitted he knew very little about these creatures so often seen during saucer landings. But he ventured this concept, which should interest Coral Lorenzen, who in one of her books advanced the same theory. She wrote that people saw humanoids or "hairy dwarfs" step out of saucers to collect plants or rocks. Owens said: "Yes, these are the SIs pets, which collect samples from earth for the SIs. Just as we use chimpanzees or porpoises, cats and dogs and horses, etc., to do the work for us. But for what purpose they want these samples, I don't really know." He says the SIs do not consult him on weighty matters, nor include him in master conferences concerning Earth's fate. His messages from them are strictly limited to the PK duties he is to perform. This should make most of us pause before calling this man a charlatan or self-deluded kook. Kooks and crackpots, as everyone knows, always place themselves one step below God (if they're modest) and share his omniscience. Various reporters, columnists, and other influential people (who will be named below) have said the PK Man's remarkable predictions might be coincidence or luck, but not likely. The facts seem to speak for themselves. Let's look at one of Owens's most sensational PK feats. Owens once said to a sports writer: "Sports is a superficial thing. But it's an excellent way to demonstrate the SIs power over a small group of men." Owens demonstrated the truth of his dictum by creating havoc with two Philadelphia sports teams, the Eagles of the National Football League and the 76'ers of pro basketball. Why he chose Philadelphia is a question that remains unanswered. He wrote to a dozen sports writers before the 1968 season opened, that he "would take the Eagles apart with PK," and absolutely crush their chances for the championship. He promised that the Eagles would have at least 20 injuries and would lose more games than they won. The Eagles had 30 injuries that season and lost 11 games in a row. That this was totally unexpected and almost weirdly unbelievable is seen from these expressions and quotes in the columns of sports writers: "Injury curse hits Eagles" . . . "Talk of jinxes and voodoo" . . . "The bewitched Eagles" . . . "Some whammy working on the team." Writer Stan Hochman wrote in the Philadelphia Daily News, September 30, 1968, after taking Owens to an Eagles' game, "I figured I'd pin him (Owens) down as to his claims of hexing the team. When the Eagles scored and went ahead 3-0, Owens said, 'The SIs are going to have to get Woodeshick. Get him out of the game.'" Woodeshick was the team's star. A brawl began between two other players and "suddenly there was Woodeshick out there . . . They threw him out of the game for fighting, (italics added) . . . The game even got stranger in the third quarter. . . ." After a fumble, four Eagles were unable to pick up the ball and the Cowboys took possession. The Eagles lost the game. In another column Stan Hochman wrote: "For a while, Ted Owens was content to cause rainstorms where there had been no rain for six years. He did work up that satisfying power blackout in 1967 (June) when he snuffed out the light for the East Coast. But . . . nobody came clamoring after Ted Owens to buy his cloud-bursting, light-snuffing services." Hochman then recited the incredible roster of injuries, freak plays, and hard-luck breaks that overwhelmed the Eagles during the 1968 exhibition season. (They were to continue throughout the regular season). Without endorsing Ted Owens's claims, Hochman reiterated that everything that had happened to the Eagles was foretold by the PK Man and published. Paid attendance to the Eagles' games naturally fell off and Jerry Wolman the team's owner, filed bankruptcy. Was it all a fluke? Were the Eagles destined to flop on their faces in 1968 without the intervention of the PK Man's alleged powers? Owens tested himself again in pro-basketball. On April 23, 1968, a prominent lawyer signed a statement that Owens had predicted the Philadelphia 76'ers would lose their play-off games with the Boston Celtics, and that the 76'ers would miss their shots to an incredible degree. George Kiseda, sports writer: "76'ers shooting is off . . . They might as well have been trying to put a medicine ball in a teacup." Sam Jones of the Celtics was quoted as saying: "I don't think (our) defense is what's beaten them. They're just missing shots." Again a sports writer: "The 76'ers simply couldn't put the ball in the basket." The strange part was that the 76'ers were famed as a "sharp shooting" team. The payoff, as another sports writer put it: "They went blind from the floor . . . and suffered a 122-104 crushing. Back to Boston Wednesday and the blindness continued . . . They shot a pathetic 18-for-68 and the Celtics had little trouble in slipping away with a 114-106 win that evened it all at 3-3 (games)." The Celtics, the underdogs, went on to win the play-offs, the first team even to come from behind and win. Keeping all the above extraordinary factors in mind, either the laws of chance went completely haywire--or the awesome forces exerted by the PK Man fulfilled his threatening prophecy. Take your pick. Some of his more recent predictions have been startlingly fulfilled according to the available evidence. On February 10, 1970, Owens was interviewed by Lawrence Maddry of the Virginian-Pilot, Virginia Beach, Va. Picking a distant state, Owens predicted that a flying saucer would be sighted over the Brewer-Bangor area of Maine, and that some sort of power failure would occur at the same time. The deadline was two weeks but after only one week headlines from the Bangor area press screamed of a flying saucer sighting; there was also the story of one witnesses's car whose battery went dead. During the interview, Maddry had asked: "Well, Mr. Owens. What do you think will happen while you're here?" "I look for some kind of power failure," he said. When the reporter went out to start his car, he had a dead battery. Maddry's column dryly says--"Informed of this, Owens's eyes rolled slightly in their sockets . . . 'Hmm, they must be very close.'" In early January 1970 Owens handed a letter to a reporter stating that he would make one or more earthquakes for the reporter's paper on January 22nd. . . . On that date earthquakes were reported in Berkeley, Calif., and in Japan. In fact, six earthquakes, were reported from # THERE'S A SAGA IN YOUR FUTURE SUBSCRIBE TO SAGA!

More impressive is Owens's bold statement to Lawrence Maddry and other reporters that the SIs would carry on a "private war" with Pan American Airways and that the Atlantic Ocean would become a "no man's land" for their giant 747 superliners. Two days later a Pan Am-747 left Puerto Rico, became disabled over the Atlantic and had to return to the airfield. The next day a 747 leaving London had to jettison fuel and also return to base. The following day a 747 crashed on the runway at Stockton, California. Is that guessing--or knowing? There is much more to tell about Ted Owens that could not be included here but will be presented in the next issue of SAGA. To be covered will be Owens's cases of PK healing, which are far fewer than those of the renowned Edgar Cayce but no less astounding. Also an intriguing explanation of who and what the SIs are, how many UFOs they have, how they operate, and what the fate of Earth will be if their (SIs) battle against the evil OIs (Other Intelligences) does not succeed. Then, there is the strange way the SIs communicate with Owens, involving "Tweeter and Twitter," two amazing SI creatures. Let us conclude with one more prediction by Ted Owens--which is really a message from the SIs as to their future plans. It should make all true UFOlogists sit up and take notice. The written-out and signed prediction is dated February 13, 1970, and was confirmed to me in another letter a week later. Here it is, verbatim: "This time the experiment (of the SIs) will not be confined to just one country . . . it will be a worldwide demonstration of UFO power! As of this date I am contacting the SIs and asking them to activate a special apparatus they have . . . to control weather . . . on a worldwide scale! The object: to prove the existence of the SIs, and their ability to receive communications from me. The objective: to cause violent weather worldwide, from this day on, throughout the entire summer coming up in 1970. "Not only that. But for the SIs 'signature' to this, they will appear in great numbers, here, there and everywhere. "In short, you are now going to be privy to one of the greatest shows ever put on, on this earth. And it will be put on by the UFO Intelligences, using their great powers. And these powers will issue forth from the Bermuda Triangle and the Devil's Triangle in the Pacific, I am positive." Well, there you have it. Ted Owens has more-or-less staked his reputation on this direct prediction to SAGA. If, when you read this, the world is being plagued by violent storms and disasters, and if there is also the greatest wave of UFO saucer sightings and landings in history, it could be coincidence. Or it could be the word of Ted Owens, PK Man, coming true. === Page 9 of 9 H.

Va. 08/08/2025 15:57 === Page 3 of 7 The Big Blackout of the eastern U.S. on November 9, 1965... Hurricane Inez in 1966 that turned the "wrong way"... Three hurricanes simultaneously hitting the U.S. in 1967... The ending of the northeast's drought in 1967... The mysterious "hex" that in 1968 made the Philadelphia Eagles football team lose 12 out of 14 games... The lightning bolt that struck the Apollo 12 mooncraft in December 1969... These and 200 other headline events (SAGA, August 1970), are claimed as PK (psychokinesis) feats performed by one man--Ted Owens--with the aid of the SI (Space Intelligences). A bold statement, yet Ted Owens has impressive documentation. Signed statements of government officials, lawyers, scientists, radio interviewers, sports writers, and many others all attest that Owens predicted those events. He was able to predict them because, he claims, the SIs had given him enormous PK powers. Whether you believe him or not, it would be difficult to explain all those sworn affidavits. For a man to guess right so many times is equally unbelievable. Keeping a careful account, Ted Owens states that 85 percent of his predictions have been fulfilled. He admits there are misses, for not even the SIs with their uncanny powers can always whip up a hurricane or earthquake on schedule. But the record is remarkable; over 200 fulfilled prophecies in five years, from 1965 to date. The PK Man's predictions have ranged far and wide, covering almost every category of world event--sneak attacks against U.S. aircraft carriers in Vietnam, the loss of three submarines in one year, the series of earthquakes that jolted California in late 1969, the failure of various Ranger moon probes, the unexplained crashes of military planes, a violent lightning storm in 1966...on and on the list goes. These calamitous events--at least those for which Ted and the SIs are responsible--supposedly have a "good purpose," as will be seen later. But first, let's get further insight into the life and mind of Ted Owens. In answer to the question, "Why did the SIs contact you and you only?" Owens replies: "As I have gotten it from them rather spottily, they had worked with me since early childhood, attempting to get through to me. As I grew up they kept trying. I worked for Dr. Rhine at Duke (Univ.) in the ESP experimentation there and was found to be loaded with paranormal ability... But the SIs still hadn't gotten through to me. It seems to have been a combination of the close approach of their UFO to our car in Fort Worth in early 1965 (SAGA, July 1970), and then my work in hypnosis and allied fields...that finally made it possible for them to get through to me." He goes on to explain the actual method of contact. "Now in 1965 when I discovered it was actually UFOs that I was dealing with and not 'Nature,' the UFOs gave me a system to use to call upon them, just as if I'd pick up a phone and talk. They showed me, in my mind's eye, a small chamber. Inside the chamber were two small creatures, resembling grasshoppers, standing on two legs. These creatures looked down into a large round oval machine. In it they could see me. If I talked, they heard the sound, but the machine quickly turned the sound into symbols, and the symbols into very high-frequency sound that they could understand... For very important communications I was to appear on the screen and ask for 'Control,' and their Higher Intelligence would appear and listen to me." Owens bestowed on the two little creatures his own names--Twitter and Tweeter. But were they the actual physical form of the SIs? "No," says Owens, "the SIs are pure energy and are invisible. Only the top members of the SIs can construct a form with their intelligence and pour themselves into it. Twitter and Tweeter are merely convenient bodies for handling their apparatus." Where do the SIs come from? "The SIs are from a different world entirely. They are from another dimension. But they have discovered how to switch from their dimension into our dimension." Questioned closely, Owens shrugs and confesses he doesn't know anything more about their world. They have revealed very little to him, which is quite different from the all-inclusive knowledge most contactees claim to have. "They don't confide things like that. They just give me Owens' plastic disk has "cured" sick people. 08/08/2025 15:57 === Page 4 of 7 assignments and training, all pointing at certain objectives." What are those objectives? Owens's voice turns grim and earnest as he gives this brief, chilling answer: "'The SIs will allow Russia and China to destroy us (the U.S.), if we don't cooperate with the SIs. Think of the world as a large field on a farm. If one section of the field won't grow crops, or be productive, then the farmer will just quit planting it and let it go to rot. And that's what will happen to the U.S. if we don't pay attention to the SIs." Owens has reiterated that all the earthquakes, hurricanes, crashing planes, and other events caused by the Owens-SI team via PK, are only spectacular attempts to attract attention to the SIs and prove they exist. And that Owens has been chosen as their sole "emissary" to make formal contact with earth authorities. Their lack of physical form and the handicaps of their alien origin preclude their ever landing and appearing in person on earth. Hence their "training" of Ted Owens and their gift to him of PK power to perform "miracles" of nature is in the hope of getting the U.S. government to accept their presence, and proffered help. So says Ted Owens. When asked why the SIs want to help or "guide" the U.S. in particular, Owens says: "'The SIs are trying to put the world in balance by cancelling out wars, hate, killing, upset weather conditions, drought, famine, etc. They can do all these things easily!" And if they can lend Owens the PK powers that created certain hurricanes and earthquakes, caused vast power blackouts, and ended a six-year drought, they can use these powers in reverse without question. What they can unleash, they can also control. "But first," continues Owens, "they want a base to work from, and they chose the United States, perhaps because it is the most influential nation on earth." Another question really stumped Owens: "Just why have the SIs come here to help earth in the first place?" His candid answer: "'I don't know. I haven't the foggiest notion of why. I have wondered about that myself." Conversely, a bleak future is painted for the U.S. if it continues to ignore the SIs. "Russia and China will combine to attack America and destroy it with both nuclear and biological weapons. The Asian race will become the main power of the world after the U.S. is destroyed, and the black people (of Africa) will become the second largest power." Eventually, Owens finishes, "the whites will practically be nonexistent." Just how the SIs intend to change this course Owens does not know. His only "job" is to keep performing his sensational PK acts, obtain the ear of the government, introduce them to the Space Intelligences by proxy, and then they will tell the U.S. what to do to avoid the above holocaust. This is the "mission" of Ted Owens. The sincerity of his devotion to this cause is beyond question. He has gained no wealth from his "crusade" and in fact, is today in debt with no possessions or home. "Broke at 50," as he puts it. For six years, since 1965, he has wandered with his family to several temporary locations, taking any job he could find. Any confidence man would have given up this poor-paying "racket" long ago, which has netted Owens nothing. One can only assume that Ted Owens, keeping at it doggedly for six years, has no ulterior motives but means exactly what he says. During his life, affluence and Ted Owens never got together. He has two children from a former marriage--Lornie and Rick--but after a divorce, they went with his ex-wife who offered to finance them through college, where they are today. Owens now lives with his second wife and their son, Beau, age 8. His family is one of his strongest supporters. There are signed and notorized statements from his older children on how he drew a map to "guide" a hurricane, or on how he made a prediction on a given date that later hit the headlines when it materialized. One of his most amazing prophecies came in a letter to Pres. Lyndon B. Johnson on May 10, 1966: "The SIs warn that a man is planning to load a small plane with high-explosives, and send the plane, kamikaze style, into the White House or the Johnson Ranch (in Texas). This man has planned this for a long while . . . put it off once, but now is getting 'worked up' to do it. Of course he'll be killed but he doesn't care. Believe he's an ex-Army flyer . . . service man, anyway." Signed, Ted Owens. One can imagine the reception this got from Presidential aides. Utterly preposterous! No President-hater, no matter how insane, would pull that ridiculous manner of assassination. It couldn't happen in real life. The NEW YORK TIMES, May 4, 1967: "FLIER DENIED BAIL ON THREAT OF CRASHING INTO THE WHITE HOUSE. A former Air Force pilot . . . has been jailed pending sentence because of an alleged threat to plunge a plane into the White House. . . ." Somehow, the SIs had read this maniac's innermost mind a year before, and knew that someday he would get up the nerve to commit his spectacular deed. It is doubtful that any other so-called "seer" predicted this unlikely plot, except Ted Owens. Ted Owens still has fascinating revelations about the Space Intelligences: for instance, how they produce earthquakes. Owens reveals that: "There are four great SI craft positioned around our globe. It is these four craft that I signal when I wish to give a demonstration of earthquakes all around the world, as I have done twice for government agencies and scientists." Asking how big those four UFO's are, you get a staggering answer: "'These craft are so big, we couldn't even imagine their size. Each one could be bigger than our earth itself." Yet, being from another dimension, they are completely invisible. Owens explains vaguely that the giant UFOs send down much smaller craft, which are the familiar saucers of sighting reports and which have somehow gained visibility. As to just how they create earthquakes: "After I signaled them, they (the four big UFOs) emitted an electromagnetic effect that slightly affected the rate of the earth's spin or movement, causing earthquakes, floods, and unusual weather." Again rather vague, but if true it means the four SI craft must have a colossal storehouse of electromagnetic power, able to grip the whole planet and give it a slight wrench. Ted Owens must feel like a man in a goldfish bowl, or like an insect under a microscope, because for the past six years: "They have used a monitor on me wherever I go. It is like a beam of light which extends from me through metal, rock, or any material, high up into the sky from wherever I happen to be--in a deep cave underground or on top of a skyscraper, it would make no difference." The SIs Owens says, have often, told him his life is "very important" for their purposes and that they are thus keeping constant watch on him and lending him special PK powers when there is danger. Owens then states that his life has been endangered at least 15 times, and recites several cases, some of which cannot be documented. As a young man, Owens was in Durham, N.C., with a girl friend when six toughs approached, with knives. They cornered the pair on a side street with assault and rape in mind. Owens had a .25 automatic in his pocket but merely withdrew it and handed it to the girl as a last-ditch defense. "Then," says Owens, "I walked right down the street at the gang coming toward us. I stared them all in the eyes and they froze. I grabbed the ringleader by his coat and told him to take his gang and get away from us. And that is just what they did." On other occasions the same thing happened, Owens staring and some mysterious power making a would-be assaulter "freeze" and lose all desire to inflict harm or death. One of the most dramatic cases, and this one fully attested to in writing by his daughter, Lornie, occurred when Owens and Lornie were walking along a street in San Antonio, Tex. Suddenly, a man they had never met rushed at them with a long knife, yelling insanely that he was going to kill them. Owens repeats, rather monotonously: "I stared into his eyes. Suddenly he dropped the knife, got down on his knees, and began to pat Lornie on the head, apologizing for threatening us." Since we have his family's sworn statement that this attack was not a figment of Owens's imagination, how do we explain his extraordinary power to render his assailants helpless without laying a hand on them. If it isn't PK power, what is it? If the SIs are keeping watch on him, they are doing a darn good job. Ted Owens also makes the enigmatic statement that he is part SI. Then he adds, "Somehow, as time went by, they changed the right lobe of my brain so that I could get to this point (to two-way ESP) with them, because the ordinary human 08/08/2025 15:57 === Page 5 of 7 brain will not pick up or send back messages to the SIs." If his brain has been modified or altered to accept SI communications, then technically he is part SI. Furthermore, says Owens, "The ordinary human brain will break down under SI communications . . . The other human beings (they attempted to work with) always had a heart attack or brain hemorrhage or broke down completely in some way. That is why I am so rare." In a sense, Owens is then a "tailor-made" human receiver, deliberately fashioned in the mental sense into the most powerful PK mind living today. This brings us to another amazing facet of Ted Owens's powers--healing. Though he disclaims being another Edgar Cayce, he has to a limited degree been able to perform certain "miracle cures." In one case, a young girl savagely beaten by a street gang suffered a skull fracture and doctors gave her only hours to live. Informed by a friend, Owens went to the hospital and obtained permission to see the patient. Though he does not know just how he did it, Owens believes he "radiated" PK healing power so that the girl survived. The attendant doctors shook their heads and called it a "miracle" beyond medical science. To spread whatever he could of his healing powers among the people, Owens had red plastic medallions made; on them were stamped his private "emblem"--a circle with a line through it and a lightning bolt below. By fingering it before mailing it out, Owens believes he "charges" it with PK power that will work beneficially for the recipient. Owens has sent hundreds of these, without charge to whoever requests them. He says, "This is not a commercial enterprise, but an expression of compassion by the SIs for humans, and of their love and affection for us." Do these "charged" disks have any hidden powers? Some of the letters Owens has received may provide the best answer. Mrs. B. C. of Willowdale, Ontario, Canada, writing of her daughter: "Dr. M. (surgeon) had six or seven doctors with him when he operated on Ruth. Cancer was found in tumors which had spread all through her right (side) up into each lung." The doctor added that if she survived the operation, she might live up to six months, no more. Mrs. B. C.'s letter goes on: "Immediately after she'd been operated on, a disk was sent by you (Owens) and placed on Ruth." Almost a year later doctors reviewed her case and "they can't understand how she can still be alive plus the success they are having with her treatments." One item does not prove the case, however. Mrs. E. B. of Lockwood, Mo. "My husband . . . seems almost entirely free of the terrible neck pains he had for two years. They were driving him insane." Her husband kept his disk with him day and night. G. B., a woman in Cincinnati, Ohio, who has a PK disk: "My doctor told me today that my back seemed straight. He was a bit puzzled because he did say he could not straighten it." (Italics added.) Mrs. L. W., of Canoga Park, Calif., a lady whose hands were almost completely crippled by painful arthritis: "As you will notice I am able to write this letter with my hands . . . I am even able to use the sewing machine to make clothes for my family. This is how much I have improved . . . Most of the time this past month I have been free of pain also. . ." The PK disk's power is not limited solely to "faith cures." From Kodiak, Alaska, a woman writes about her husband's luck in fishing for queen crabs: "He put his pots out in one spot in Alitak Bay . . . He only had 13 pots that first time and in seven fishing days he brought in a full load of tanner (queen) crabs, which is real good. Here is the oddest part of it; a whole flock of boats moved in on him, had him surrounded with their buoys and pots. They didn't do any good at all and they picked up their pots and left . . . But he (her husband) got another boatload of 7,500 crabs. He went back and got his third load of crabs from the same spot, while these other boats got so few they picked up their pots and left. . ." Her husband had been carrying the PK disk. There is yet another angle to this story that makes it even more fantastic. This same woman had first written to Ted Owens, on October 30, 1967, requesting a PK-disk, with this explanation: "My husband's problem is this: in 1964 we lost two commercial fishing boats . . . in the Alaskan Good Friday earthquake. We had to get an SBA loan and went $82,000 in debt . . . With the high cost of living in Alaska, we are very much afraid we are going to have our (new) boat repossessed, as my husband is a crab fisherman and just can't make it unless he catches more crabs." Now reread the woman's first letter and you will see why her husband miraculously caught crabs where nobody else could. Fishing luck, of course, is notoriously quixotic, but the kind of luck that fisherman had is incredible! Unless it was more than luck. One more medical case is startling, according to this note from a woman in Pensacola, Fla.: "Concerning my brother . . . being mentally ill and had been for 15 years . . . Don't know what has happened but his mind is OK now and he is home from the hospital." She had left a PK disk with him a month before. In the stack of letters Ted Owens has received from grateful people to whom he sent his PK disk, these phrases appear over and over--"The doctor was amazed," . . . "The doctor couldn't believe it," . . . "The doctor acted stunned." However, Ted Owens is not touting himself as a miracle healer nor usurping the province of doctors. Far from it. He states firmly that: "I warn all that I work with, to work closely with their doctors, dentists, etc., the PK methods certainly do not replace our human medicine and surgery. . . I explain carefully the UFO intelligences cannot pull teeth, or remove an infected appendix . . . OD (Other Dimensional) methods are to be used, with the doctor's permission, only after all regular medicine and surgery have failed." Owens is also careful not to claim god-like powers for the SIs, although he quickly adds that "the SIs are doing God's work." Owens has pondered the past six astounding years of his life and has come to the conclusion that there are certain parallels between him and Biblical people--notably Moses and Ezekiel, who both performed "miracles." How? With the same PK powers that were bestowed upon Owens. Certainly the ability to conjure up lightning storms, turn hurricanes, and heal the sick--if Owens really has this ability--is comparable to Moses making water pour from a rock, or Ezekiel summoning a strange mechanical "whirlwind" to carry him away--which was undoubtedly a UFO! Hence the strong linkage Ted Owens finds between God, the Space Intelligences, and his own superhuman PK powers. Not that he knows all the answers, which he readily admits. Another reason the SIs may be here as "watchdogs" of earth is because of the OIs--Other Intelligences. Owens cannot elaborate on them, except to say the OIs are "evil" as compared to the SIs. When asked if the SIs and OIs are using earth as a battleground, Owens says, "I think it's more like a game of chess between the several kinds of Space Intelligences, and we are the chess pieces. They (the SIs and OIs) are too advanced to shoot at each other, as we do. They think in such dimensions, and at such depths, that it would be beyond our tiny limited minds to even imagine." For this reason Ted Owens tried to obtain $5,000 in 1968 to have a free year in which to contact the SIs more closely and find out all those answers. Owens was thwarted in gaining the backing of the U.S. government. He had planned it this way: "The U.S. would send me to Europe with one Special Forces man, as a bodyguard and witness. I would be guided by the SIs to select an old deserted castle in an isolated location. I would live there for one year. Sometime during that time the SIs would appear to me for a face-to-face meeting, and arrange a way to meet with the President (of the U.S.)." Owens is serious about this being his "mission," however, he has given the government an alternative. He recently wrote President Nixon and offered to spend 30 days in the Bermuda Triangle, if they would furnish him with a comfortable boat plus a submarine nearby to observe. He would also spend 30 days in the Devil's Triangle near Japan. Owens said his mission would be to make contact with the SIs. The PK man would not guarantee results but said the SIs might very well come to him in either or both triangles because he is the only human being who can "call" them. This raises the point that the SIs, as Owens believes, have been training 08/08/2025 15:57 === Page 6 of 7 him all along. In a letter to me, Owens states: "Yesterday I awoke, and realized that the SIs had been at work on my brain (during sleep). This time they have given me the key to something that has been puzzling me for years. Namely, what has motivated me to learn 50 professions? . . . "Each profession demanded that I learn a 'language'. With Gregg shorthand (my speed was 200 words per minute) I had to learn all the symbols. . . ." He goes on to list how typing forced him to learn the keyboard system . . . As a steel mill inspector he had to learn calibration and other measurements . . . In teaching autohypnosis, it was the symbology of the Brain Wave Synchronizer . . . and so on. "So," concludes Owens, "when it came to the SIs getting a breakthrough into my mind . . . teaching me their OD (Other Dimensional) symbols . . . I had already developed a strong 'muscle,' so to speak, with which to receive their information." This reminds one of the rigorous training astronauts go through in order to "think space," which, with its zero-G and third-law-of-motion characteristics is entirely different from "thinking earth." Without intensive training, no man could ever have mastered the semi-computerized thought processes necessary to fly a ship into space. Similarly, no human mind could possibly grasp the intricate symbology of pure-energy intelligences from another dimension unless it was thoroughly programmed, like the mind of Ted Owens. Logical, understandable, rational, Owens's whole approach to the mystery in which he finds himself is scientific and not mystical as with the contactees. This is clearly seen in Ted Owens' own "SI Glossary" in which he defines various ODEs (Other Dimensional Effects): Nature's Mailbox--A visual-image "mailbox" into which he puts "letters" to be acted upon--as when requesting a storm. Angel Box--ODE container which releases good intelligences which can be assigned to sick or hurt persons (apparently the mechanism by which the PK-disks work). PK Bubble--An ODE force placed around a person, thing, city, or even the U.S., to perform a specific task (which may be one clue to how Owens manipulates his PK powers) White Box, Rainbow Door, Messenger Units, Sound Force PK, Weight PK, Electromagnetic Bubble, Laser PK, (other ODEs based on scientific extrapolations of known forces and energies.) Let us conclude with some more sensational PK feats and fulfilled predictions made by Ted Owens in the past six years, which far exceed the accomplishments of such nationally known psychics as Jean Dixon and Peter Hurkos. On June 1, 1966, in a written notice to the CIA and other agencies, Ted Owens predicted an early hurricane, within days, long before the traditional hurricane season. Loud laughter from the hurricane center must have turned into gasps when on June 7th, Hurricane Alma rose in wrath, the earliest Atlantic hurricane ever to hit the U.S. mainland. One June 18, 1966, Owens' predicted that violent electrical storms would soon strike the Philadelphia area. By the end of June and into July, that city was bombarded by electrical bolts seldom seen before. During this period, with a group of friends, Owens pointed and said a lightning flash would strike over a certain building--this happened within minutes. Owens made it strike there, he claims. It will definitely interest UFOlogists to know that the following "classic" sightings of saucers and occupants were predicted in advance by Ted Owens, and in some cases "ordered" by him. * The "Michigan Monster" case of August 1966, in Monroe County, where Christine Van Acker, a 17-year-old girl and her mother came upon a hairy, black, seven-foot monster. * The "meteor" of August 19, 1966, which was so bright that it cast shadows as it flashed across the skies over Pennsylvania and Ohio. Puzzled astronomers admitted it was too slow for a genuine meteor. It was, says Owens, a spectacular UFO that he had "promised" would manifest itself over Pennsylvania. * The semi-tragic tale of the saucer named "Floyd"--a police code name. In April 1966, State Police officer Dale Spaur and several other troopers pursued a low-flying saucer from the state of Ohio into Pennsylvania, without ever catching up. The sighting came to haunt Dale Spaur to the point where he lost his job and his wife. He became a broken-down hermit because he, or one of the other policemen, had fired at the UFO, which Ted Owens had prophesied would mean the police would be "without one officer." * The "Penninsula Monster" at Erie, Pa., on July 31, 1966, where Betty Jean Klem and three other hysterical teen-age friends in a car were accosted by a hulking gorilla-like creature, which later flew off in a saucer. But of course Ted Owens' most recent and significant prediction, as of February 1970 (SAGA, July 1970) was that the summer of 1970 would usher in the greatest UFO wave in history as saucers would appear in "great numbers everywhere on earth." Is that worldwide saucer flap going on right now? We might also ask that if the flap is going on is it being successfully smothered by the news blackout that has been clamped on all UFO reports since the Condon Report of 1969? If so, Ted Owens today is a frustrated prophet indeed. Finally, here are two more predictions by Ted Owens, which, if they haven't already been fulfilled, will be in a short time. Owens is confident they will. Prediction 1) There is a "terrible threat" to our forces in or near Vietnam. Owens says the SIs showed him the symbolical image of a black triangular mass silently converging there, either through the air or the water. He is not clear as to the exact nature of the threat but it's a "blockbuster force" and will be a major headline about Vietnam. Prediction 2) That Nigeria, because of its inhuman treatment of the conquered Biafrans after their war ceased, will suffer greatly unless they change their policy. "The long unlimited hand of the UFO intelligences," wrote Owens in a letter to President Nixon, "will now reach out and strike at the Nigerian government and teach them a lesson they will never forget. From now on, Nigeria is a marked country, until the present government and all the people responsible for the miseries of the Biafran innocents have been struck down with illness and death and misery themselves." Owens seems to imply that something akin to the "seven plagues" that struck Egypt in Biblical times will scourge the Nigerians. It is a matter of record that as of mid-February, a deadly new virus struck Nigeria only, with a frightful fatality rate of 50 percent. Three out of five medical lab technicians sent by the U.S. died promptly of this Lassa Fever, as it is called, and medical authorities called it an emergency. "The greatest mystery," to quote the The New York Times, "is where the disease came from." An SI warning to the U.S. about trouble in Vietnam (not caused by the SIs), and an SI vengeance on Nigerian cruelty. So says Ted Owens, mouthpiece of the SIs. * THE END 08/08/2025 15:57 === Page 7 of 7 # NOW - YOU CAN CONTACT THE SPACE INTELLIGENCES!

Ted Owens, who hails from Virginia and has been the subject of numerous national magazine articles as well as appearing on national television, is a guest of Mr. and Mrs. Al Bailey, owners of Chico MotorLodge, 725 Broadway. Accalimed as one of the "world's greatest psychics" in the April 1971 issue of Saga Magazine, Owens says he doesn't just predict, he claims to have the power to cause "miracles" to happen. He says his mind had control of professional basketball and football teams in recent years and that he caused injuries to key players to keep certain teams out of the Super Bowl. In June 1967, Owens said, he notified the U.S. hurricane center that three simultaneous hurricanes would occur. Just after that, hurricanes Beulah, Chloe and Doris were active on the same weekend. In 1972, Owens told a team of scientists and other authorities that the country would experience terrible floods because humans had been polluting lakes, rivers and streams for too long. Many damaging floods occurred. Owens, who has been written about in many issues of Saga, Sports Illustrated, in two books, "Revelation, The Divine Power" and "Occult America" and many newspapers, explained that he gets his power from the Bermuda Triangle, off the Florida coast where many U.S. aircraft and ships have been reported missing. Owens pointed out that Dr. Jonathan Wright, National Aeronautics and Space Administration physicist has stated there is a UFO base in this area on an island in the Bahamas. "I have worked for and with them (UFOs) for 10 years," Owens said. Owens, who claims an IQ of 153--genious level--is a member of Mensa, an international organization of people with IQs above 148. Only 2 per cent of the world's population belongs to Mensa, he said. To become a member, one must apply and go through extensive tests and analysis by teams of scientists. Owens has been analyzed over and over again by scientists in this country because of his 200 documented predictions and "paranormal phenomena." Owens has been a jazz drummer, lecturer, hypnotist -- the list of vocations approaches 50. He has appeared on a CBS television special and has recently been approached by Hollywood producers about a movie of his life, he said. Owens now trains people to become what he calls "super brains." He teaches individuals how to have instant access to 50 to 80 per cent of their brain power whereas most people have a much more limited usage. He gives them the "tools to solve any problem they are confronted with." He stated he is going to train some people while in Chico. Owens has a wife, Martha, and an 8-year-old son. 08/08/2025 15:57 === Page 6 of 9 cisco Chronicle N Mon., June 3, 1974 # people # When Superbrain Makes It Happen By Kevin Wallace Ted Owens, "the UFO and PK man" from rural Cape Charles, Va., has been widely misrepresented as using his flying saucer contacts to predict the scores of pro ball games. "I don't predict," Owens explained impatiently. "I watch the games, two at a time on the TV, and I MAKE it happen, play by play." Owens, a smiling and portly man with a cigar, has been here at the Bayside Motor Inn for the past few days, on a tutoring errand to improve a local student's brain. "I teach a few people how to have superbrains," he said, offhandedly, and moved back to the bigger picture: "I have a special brain, half UFO, half human. "I see the day when each pro team will have its own master psychic on the bench - say, Jeane Dixon and her crystal ball with the Raiders, and me with my SI Disc with the 49ers - and the most powerful psychic would win." He produced a clipping showing it's already being done on a small scale in Kenya, where soccer teams hire witch doctors. Next he produced an SI Disc - a sort of red poker chip with white squiggles on it. "I don't sell SI Discs," he said. "But since it takes me 20 minutes to program each one, and I have mailing costs, I have to ask for a minimum $5 contribution." He also lectures. SI Discs seem to help people, Owens said - and, from a mass of articles and documents strewn over his bed, he extracted a letter from a small girl in Bremerton, Wash., saying her back trouble cleared up after a year of wearing her SI Disc and seeing the doctor. But SI Discs won't get just anybody into contact with what SI stands for - "Space Intelligences," which are UFO-borne beings, "not from another planet, but another dimension," who ten years ago established two-way telepathic contact with Owens, at the time just another writer, while he was mooning along on a drive through Texas. "They told me I was the only human they'd been able to get into two-way communication with them - and survive it - since Moses," Owens recalled, with modest relish. With a batting average like that, it's hardly likely that a third SI communicator will turn up right away, despite the great revival in occult interest, especially in the Bay Area. "But the new interest is a good thing," Owens said, "even if it only makes everybody read a book called 'Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain', which shows how far ahead the Russians are in all this." He shuddered pleasurably. Actually, when Owens arranges ball game outcomes - and, as he adds, "other large-scale PK things, such as storms, droughts, volcanos and hurricanes, all of them documented by scientists and lawyers in these articles and letters right here" - it's the SI folks up in their flying saucers who are doing it, at Owens' request. By "PK," Owens alludes to "psychokinesis," the term for mentally affecting objects at a distance - the sort of thing that the Stanford Research Institute's Uri Geller likes to do, bending spoons and car keys on TV shows. Owens maintains a common sense skepticism about whether Geller's alleged extraterrestrial contacts are on a par with his own SI friends - asking, reasonably, "If so, why just bend spoons?" From the bed, he produced accounts of his own larger-minded enterprises from the Chicago National News Exploiter, the National Tatler, Saga Magazine, the Chatanooga Times, a couple of paperbacks about "What the Seers Predict," and the Mensa Bulletin, house organ of the society of Owens' peers in the higher IQ brackets. A paperback showed that in 1970 Owens "predicted" - though the verb is at odds with Owens' general usage - "President Nixon will not end in office. Something unusual will occur, and he will either resign or be forced out of office." Other clippings and affidavits credited Owens with arranging for lightning to strike in Philadelphia and three simultaneous hurricanes to harrass Florida in 1968, the losing streak of the Baltimore Colts in 1971, an earthquake in the Texas panhandle last February, and the materialization of a UFO earlier this month over the Dallas Airport - which was nothing. "The time those two Mississippi fishermen went for a flight aboard a UFO - well, I not only asked the UFO to go pick them up, I brought out the other UFOs in 25 states right afterwards, to create a furor." Owens, an Indiana boy to start with, creates his furors nowadays in an otherwise sleepy "six-by-six block" Virginia village, sometimes to the alarm of his wife, who he says is "a simple Texas girl who doesn't know much what goes on. Such unnerving trivia are accepted with aplomb by Owens, much as the whole world was by W. C. Fields. And still is by Walter Cronkite. Owens' four children are more psychically gifted, especially Teddy, 3, who brings an ashtray when Owens is just sitting in his chair, smoking and beginning to wish an ashtray was at hand. The next-youngest, Beau - "actually that's Beau-garde, with an accent over the e" - first showed his own gift four years ago. "I was sitting in front of the TV one day, planning to control two basketball games, when Beau climbed on my lap and controlled them himself - two basketball games in one day, and that's complicated even for me. And Beau was only 3 at the time!" 08/08/2025 15:57 === Page 7 of 9 SCOTLAND DAILY EXPRESS Thursday March 27 1975 # Ted's hot-line to space helps him find Nessie By Alex Main MONSTERS on demand and a hot-line to outer space are just two modest achievements of Ted Owens. And it's all done by spiritual appointment says the American who whistled up Nessie last week. "Ya gotta believe it, baby. It was so close I could have hit it with a stone," drawled the 55-year-old American in Drumnadrochit, Inverness-shire. Mr. Owens's psychic powers stem from a childhood experience when "I was taken aboard a U.F.O. in the Mexican desert and my brain was 'modified' to receive messages." Of his Nessie sighting, he said: "It was dark and impossible to make out detail, but I could see it had a long neck about 6 to 8 inches in diameter and a small egg-shaped head." ![Mr. Ted Owens] Mr. Ted Owens ## Reports Inverness taxi-driver Ron Petri admitted initial scepticism. "Then he told me he had seen a U.F.O. over the loch. The following day there were news reports of similar sightings near Fort William." Fort William police have since confirmed they received several reports of a strange object in the sky. Mr. Owens is author of a book "How to Contact Space-people," which was published in 1968. Why the Loch Ness visit? "I have been informed by U.F.O. that at one of four locations I will receive a psychic operation to the right lobe of my brain which will make my psychic powers even greater. "Loch Ness is one, Stonehenge another." 08/08/2025 15:57 === Page 8 of 9 Virginian-Pilot, Tuesday, March 27, 1973 B7 # PK Man' Owens Retires--Undefeated By FRANK VEHORN Virginian-Pilot Sports Writer Ted Owens, a man who stopped both Julius Erving and Bubba Smith without moving a finger and who wrecked entire major league teams, is disassociating himself from the affairs of sports. A resident of Cape Charles who has achieved international attention by performing supernatural wonders, Owens disclosed he is withdrawing all hexes previously applied to persons, geographical locations and athletic teams. The announcement will be cause for celebration in Philadelphia and Baltimore, where Owens' power did the most severe damage in disrupting athletic teams. In several magazines and national television programs, Owens has explained that his special powers are received from "space intellectuals" with whom he communicates. Most of his predictions have involved storms, earthquakes, space research and draughts. He can produce documented proof of his success. But he also has carried out attacks against several professional teams and assumed responsibility last season for the Squires losing in the ABA playoffs to the New York Nets. Owens made known most of his predictions in news letters to scientists and selected journalists. In his latest, he says he has "erased the blackboard clean... and any vestige of PK (the power he uses) effect in the past, attached to anything or anyone at all... is now gone and erased." Owens would not disclose the reason for removing his power. "I am under orders not to do so," he said. His only remaining act, he said, would be to produce a mild earthquake in northern California in which no one will be killed or hurt. Owens, whose powers are described in an article in the current Saga Magazine annual, said a movie soon will be made of his life but he would not reveal any other future plans. For the past several years, Owens attempted to reach agreement with several proteams for a deal in which he would use his psychic powers to help the team win. Owens said former Baltimore Colts owner Carroll Rosenbloom, who now owns the Los Angeles Rams, wanted to employ him but was prevented from doing so by National Football League commissioner Pete Rozelle. Owens then turned against the Colts, who one year won the Super Bowl and then started falling apart, culminated last season when coach Don McCafferty was fired and the legendary Johnny Unitas was benched. Before the season, Rosenbloom swapped the Colts for the Rams and Owens said the move was because Rosenbloom was trying to escape the hex that Owens had on him. But Owens notified Rosenbloom that he would PK the Rams, too, and a couple of days later Rams quarterback Roman Gabriel was stricken with a rare lung injury. The mood for the Colts was set when Bubba Smith injured himself by running into a yard marker when no one was near him. Smith's season-long absence badly hurt the Baltimore defense. Last year, the Squires infuriated Owens by bringing in an actor who claimed to cast evil spells on New York during the playoffs. The Squires had ignored an offer by Owens. **Owens informed the Squires, who were ahead, 3-1, in the best-of-seven series, that he was working against them. The Nets won the last three games and the series.** In the final game, the Squires shot their worst of the season and one player commented, "It was strange. The shots that usually go in just were not dropping." Not even Julius Erving, the remarkable forward Owens considers the best in basketball, could pull the Squires through. But Philadelphia, home of the worst collection of professional athletic teams, has felt the sting of Owens the most. "It started back in 1966 when I lived there," explained Owens. "The brother of Eagles owner Jerry Wolman met with me and said he was interested in using my powers to help the team. "He gave me a couple of tickets to the game. The opponent was Pittsburgh and that team fumbled and dropped the ball about every time. But Philadelphia was worse." So the Steelers won and the Eagles rejected Owens. Owens then, to prove his powers, turned against the Eagles and eventually all of Philadelphia's athletic teams. Last year the baseball team had the worst record in the National League and this season the basketball team has the worst record in pro basketball. Owens remembers when Norman Snead broke his leg while playing with the Eagles. "There was no one near him when it happened" said Owens. "But I was on the spot, throwing my PK at him." Owens normally PKed teams while listening to games on radio or by watching games on television. Last season Eagles owner Leonard Tose "guaranteed" his team would beat New York in a game on national television. Owens called The Virginian-Pilot and said he was "going one-on-one" with Tose and the Eagles would not win. Sportscaster Howard Cosell remarked the game was one of the strangest he had seen, that the Eagles were moving the ball all over the field but couldn't score. Owens won and Tose and his Eagles lost. "From the time I started working against the Eagles, the team was wiped out, the coach (Joe Kuharich then) was fired and the owner (Wolman) went bankrupt," said Owens, who last season claims to have stopped both the Chicago Bears and Cleveland Browns. **Most of the times Owens went against teams was because he was ridiculed. Two years ago, Baltimore Bullets coach Gene Shue insulted Owens on television while his team was leading in the NBA playoffs.** "I told Shue his team might as well not suit up for the remaining games of the playoffs," said Owens, "and I was right because the Bullets didn't win." Owens says now when he sits down to watch a ball game on television it is just for enjoyment. "I don't care if the Eagles, the Phillies or the 76ers win," he said. "But it may take a while for the PK force to wear off in some areas." Owens says he won't PK a team any more, even if someone calls him a nut or crackpot. He is even forgetting the differences he had the past year with the Squires. "In fact, I hope the Squires win the championship in the playoffs," he said, "and I believe they can do it. The Squires are the best team in professional basketball when Julius Erving is at full strength. "I would even put them up against the Celtics or the Lakers." If the Squires went against the Celtics or Lakers, though, they would probably need the blessing of Ted Owens. Now, that can't happen. For Ted Owens, whose name can't be found in any record book, is retiring from sports unbeaten. 08/08/2025 15:57 === Page 9 of 9 SCOTLAND - EVENING EXPRESS WEDNESDAY MARCH 26 1975 AMERICAN Ted Owens claims he can make the Loch Ness monster appear at his will. And late on Tuesday night, he says, Nessie rose from the depths of Loch Ness a few yards in front of him. Ted (55), from Indiana, describes it as having a long neck, six to eight inches in diameter, and having a small egg-shaped head. It was pitch black by the lochside and he could not make out details, nor could he take a photograph. But this is the least of Mr Owens' claims. He maintains that he communicates with UFOs and makes them appear. He said that last Thursday he went down to the shores of the loch to make a rendezvous with a UFO and saw it in the sky over Drumnadrochit. The following day, the "Evening Express" carried the story of a Fort-William woman seeing a bright light in the sky. She said it looked like a helicopter light but there was no noise. Mr Owens says he was responsible for the sighting. Speaking from his hotel, the Glenurquhart Lodge, at Drumnadrochit, Mr Owens, who claims he is one of the world's leading psychics, said he was in Scotland on a strange and supernatural mission. "I have been guided by UFO since I was a child. "My brain has been modified so I can make things happen and I am here for one final modification to the right lobe. "The UFOs have told me this type of psychic surgery will take place in one of four locations--Loch Ness, Stonehenge, Germany or France. ● ABOVE--Ted is pictured beside Castle Urquhart where he claims to have seen a UFO.

Text Any textual data included in the document === Page 1 of 20 To friend George Teixeira from Ted Owens May 8, 1975 Special Report to Millie... (and scientists) The trip to Europe, Millie...was success beyond your or my expectations. Not only was my brain worked on by the SI's...as far as they could take it without damaging me...but I saw the Loch Ness monster on two different occasions... documented my bringing out UFO's in Scotland...activated Stonehenge for the SI's... and made a shocking discovery about Stonehenge that nobody else knows, or ever will. Am enclosing tape recordings that I made on the trip...live, on the spot, recordings... up inside old haunted castles in the wee small hours of the night...owls hooting... on haunted hillsides...it is all there. I EVEN GOT THE UFO SOUND ON TAPE! Thanks to you, Millie...it was all made possible. (And to George Delavan, for keeping the home fires burning.) To go back in time...in 1965 I discovered in Arizona that I had discovered a psi method of controlling weather. Drove to Washington, D.C., with the family, and got together with CIA and NASA...but they refused to do what the SI's wanted...get me to an old, haunted, isolated castle in Europe. So it took ten years...and your magnificent help...to get done what the SI's wanted. After I went to Mayo Clinic, in Rochester, Minnesota...and got my torn stomach muscles repaired (which you financed)....I returned home and recuperated, making some trips to New York to pick up necessary equipment for the Europe trip. Finally was ready, and flew to New York. They told me at the airport there that they were holding the plane for me...that I was late...and rushed me, not through, but PAST, Customs. At the time this did not register on me...but later it worried me a lot, in Europe...thinking of the return trip...because I had not declared all my equipment and stuff. (Thank God...they rushed me back the same way, so all was well, and my worries were for naught.) Arrived in London, and without leaving the airport caught a plane for Inverness, Scotland. There, got a room at the Caledonian Hotel. I hadn't the faintest idea of where I was going, or what to do. But I work that way on purpose...leaving it up to the SI's to clue me in (which they do with unerring accuracy, always.) There I treaded water for several days, trying to figure out the lay of the land... how to talk to the Scottish people (no small task) etc. Finally lined up a taxi driver named Ronald Petrie, to drive me way out of town late at night and drop me off at an isolated location on the banks of Loch Ness (where the famed monster resides, allegedly...and not allegedly...it does.) He'd return in an hour or two, and pick me up...was the arrangement. I carried my camera, tape recorder, flashlight (although I didn't use one at all...gave my position away...had it just for some emergency.) Wore special warm clothing purchased in New York just for this trip. Carried lots of other stuff...but these were the main items. The first night out there...Ron dropped me off in the pitchblack darkness, and drove off. At midnight, there is no traffic on that one, lonely road...outside Inverness. So...I was all alone in the blackness. I felt my way toward Loch Ness, and found a 40 foot cliff impeding my progress. So I simply jumped down towards a tree growing out of the cliff, and fell the rest of the way. Hitting the bottom, felt blood running down my right leg. But...I was down on the beach, the edge, of the 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 2 of 20 2 famous Loch Ness, at least. It was freezing cold. I telepathed to the SI's just where I was...also to the Loch Ness creature (which I figure is an other-dimensional entity belonging to the SI's.) Soon a UFO appeared in the sky...darting about, as they do...straight ahead and up over me. Then one by one, three "flying sword UFO's...read Arthur Shuttlewood's book for their description) appeared out over the water, or on the far shore, whichever...hard to determine. Then...heard a splash...and this long neck emerged from the water, with a small, football-shaped head, on top of it...and it stared at me for about five minutes. Then it vanished...after the shock of seeing it wore off and I finally began to grab for my camera (no flash) to try to get a moonlight shot of it. Finally came time to get up to the top of the cliff and over to the road to rendezvous with Ron. I slung everything around me...and climbed up, laboriously, holding on to tree roots, anything. Made it. Ron drove up, lights off, and we returned to Inverness, to my hotel. (Should back up here...and tell you that before taking off for Europe...a flying saucer actually appeared on our TV set at home...completely unlike any color usually on the screen...accompanied by all sorts of odd electrical malfunctions there at home. Also...when I first arrived at Inverness...detectives were busily watching me at the hotel. I could spot them quite easily...and this happened during the course of the entire adventure.) Next day I bought some rope, then when midnight came and Ron dropped me off out in the wilds...I tied the rope carefully to a tree at the top of the high cliff...lowered myself over the edge...and fell down the rest of the way. Actually, it was funny. Like a Marx Bros. comedy. The night before I'd gotten five deep gashes on my right leg. But this fall...just some light scratches on my left leg. Telepathed to the UFO's, and to Nessie. The same four UFO's appeared again...one high in the sky, darting about..and the other three out over the water. This night an owl hooted over to my right for a while...then hooted from directly behind me...then hooted from the far shore. That owl certainly did get around, unless there was a gang of owls, taking turns hooting. And something was scaring the daylights out of the birds across from me on the far shore...they were squawking like mad. Finally I went to the rope, and managed to climb back up the cliff, holding onto the rope. Ron met me, and back we went. Both nights, icy cold...cold wind cutting right through clothing. (Might add that this night telepathed to "sword UFO's" to let me alone...and they went out, changed to red glow. Next day accidentally viewed a TV daytime program called "Tomorrow People" by BBC. Amazingly, it's a show about a few people...who can telepath to UFO's for info and intelligence and help...and who have brains of Future Man, like myself! They might as well have studied my work and past..and done a TV series on it! (Should add...after second night on Loch Ness...felt awful; drained; turned inside out.) Well, I figured I'd done enough at this location...so lined up a plane for Edinburgh the next day. But...I strolled into a small shop and saw a small pamphlet...which told about an old, haunted castle called Urquhart Castle on Loch ness. I cancelled the plane, and hired Ron to drive me to Drumnadrochit, a distance away...and put up at the Glenurquhart Lodge there in that small, country village on the near-vicinity of Urquhart Castle. Well, I lined up a new driver at Drum. Peter Wilson; retired sergeant-major of the British Army. Not a taxi driver at all. Owns an expensive gift shop there. Forget how I met him, but it was accidental...if anything at all on this trip could be termed accidental. Peter had been all over the world in the British Army...tough, tough sergeant-major. He rolled up at the lodge at 11:30, and we drove way out to Urquhart Castle. It's a huge, isolated ruins of a castle...right on the very edge of Loch Ness...and I found out later...is where the Monster has been seen the most! 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 3 of 20 3 He let me out...and I slipped like a shadow through the gate at the top of the road (no light ever, remember)...and tippy-toed down the long, long path towards the castle...through another gate....then left on a path along the base of the hill below the castle, left far over to the drawbridge...then up into the shadows of the castle...through the empty rooms and door arches...up to the top, to a parapet which I'd marked earlier in the day when Peter and I had made a daylight, trial run out to the Castle. (Might add here...the gates that I had come through...had huge padlocks on them...but someone had obligingly left the padlocks open. I figured that I had the blessings of someone in high officialdom on this. The Castle is a national treasure...kept intact by the Dept. of Environment. Later, In England...I did not get this cooperation by the High Ones...as you will know.) This was a Thursday night...and I telepathed to the SI's, and to the Monster...from the parapet of the Castle overlooking the Loch. This, incidentally...was the Pluperfect Place for me...as far as the SI's were concerned. Moonlight flooding down on my lonely figure atop this isolated old castle, with the spooky Loch below. I could sense it. That the SI's were pleased that I was there. Anyway, soon a UFO danced up just overhead in the sky...darting all about...beautiful. And a column of white light shot down from the sky also...no planes or copters up there. Everything quiet...strange, eerie stillness throughout. The UFO was hypnotic, and I got a headache just from watching it...and nauseated. Finally when the time came I made my way out of the darkness of the castle, up the hill, and through the gate, where Peter was waiting in his car with no lights. I told him to wait a minute, and played the tape recorder relating the UFO sighting and all. Forgot to add...that up at the castle I'd developed a bad ache in my back, along with the splitting headache and nausea.) Next day Ron Petrie phoned from Inverness and said that many people had seen the UFO over the area...called police, etc...and a story had appeared in the newspaper about it. I asked him to drive out with copies of the paper, so that I could document it. All day long...the people at the lodge asked me if I felt all right...said that I "looked different." In the afternoon some friends took me down into the village to watch a shinty game. Fascinating. Came night time and I had to call Peter and cancel our rendezvous. Something had "clicked off" in my brain, and I couldn't stand the strain of it this night. On Saturday night...midnight at the old castle...another UFO danced up over the castle. Very spooky night...bright moonlight...like one of those TV werewolf movies. Got an excruciating pain at the base of my neck. Tape recorder malfunctioning. Also ran out of tape. I know that the SI's are working on me, night by night...either from a distance, or close by, invisibly. I can sense, also, that I am under surveillance at the castle. By whom or what, I do not know. Sunday Ron drove to Drum. and got me and took me back to Inverness, to his home. There I transferred my small tapes to his large cassette recorder...and rented his recorder from him, to continue with...since my small Norelco 95 was malfunctioning. All this time...the day by day routine is horrible. I have no company; no companionship; nothing to do...from early morn until almost midnight at night, when I go to work. There is no diversion whatsoever. Just a glass of beer at the pub, and watch the people having fun amongst themselves. Monday...had a strange thing happen. Went into the pub of the lodge to have a beer...nothing else to do...in the afternoon...and some big, rough character begins to curse and berate the sweet barmaid, Margaret (Ricky's girlfriend.) 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 4 of 20 4 I tried to use psychology to talk him smoothly...and quiet him down. We three were alone in the pub, with the exception of a salesman over at the side of the room. Well, this character then zeroes in on me...and begins to try to back me into a corner. I could read his mind quite easily...he had a glass of whisky in his hand, and was preparing to slosh it into my eyes...so I got my hands up in a judo posture. He put down the drink and set himself to throw a sneak punch...so I turned with my left side toward him, to give him a small target; also so that I could clobber his neck with a left hand, edge of the hand. Seeing this move, he cannily changed posture and set himself for a kick with his heavy booted foot. Before he could launch the kick...I pivoted around him, out of the corner, to the center of the bar...where I had plenty of room to maneuver. Just then who comes in...but Peter Wilson! Peter positions himself between me and this fractious character. I go over to the salesman, at a table, and leave my camera...then put my watches into my pockets, and ring. Meanwhile the character is still shouting vile curses at the barmaid. I go back to the bar...and flat tell the rat to either shut his vile mouth...or take me on. He starts for me and get ready (just fresh from a double hernia operation, remember...ha) when Peter steps in, spins this thing around....and holds him. Then the manager comes into the pub and tells the character to leave...which he does, promptly. But in all this...it rang as clear as a lead dime. First, I'd seen this character half an hour before he even went into the pub...out in the lodge office. He'd had a full pint of whisky then. In the pub, he still had that same pint...and it stayed full. When he went out, it was with the same full pint. In the bar, he'd had just one small glass of whisky...and he hadn't drunk that, either. This doesn't follow the pattern of a drinker...or a drunk. Also...while he was maneuvering around me...his eyes were clear...and his moves were smart. Remember, I'm an old ring fighter; a judo fighter; and once a nightclub bouncer. I know what I know. This entire situation seemed set up for my benefit....so that British intelligence could find out...how much control I had...if I would resort to quick violence...resort to weapons, or try to handle matters with my hands. Well, if so, they found out...I am very, very controlled...use violence only as a very last resort...and my hands are my first line of defense, even fresh after an operation. (Insert at this point...May 9, 1975...last night I awoke at 4:03 AM by the illuminated clock at bedside...and heard a voice talking to me from the foot of my bed...an unemotional, flat, mechanical voice...instructing me to do something. I listened to it for about five minutes, then inexplicably dropped off to sleep... it must have told me not to remember...because this morning I could not remember what that voice had been telling me. But...the voice was quite, quite real....) Night again, alone, at the isolated, haunted castle Urquehart. Very dark and very cold. I moved through the ruins like a shadow among the shadows...up through the arches, up onto my parapet lookout overlooking Loch Ness. The sky was covered with thick black clouds. Pitch black darkness all about. I telepathed to the SI's, and to the Monster. Soon an amazing thing happened. A circle opened right over me, in the sky. In this circle, the stars and sky were quite clear...but everywhere else in the sky, as far as the eye could see...thick black clouds covered the sky! It seemed like a miracle. Finally the circle of clear sky closed up, and the entire sky once again was all overcast with black clouds. I checked the time on my Pulsar watch at 21 after midnight. Then doublechecked a few seconds later...and it read 28 after 12! I realized that somehow...seven minutes of time had vanished...during which time I had no recollection! (This was like the Dallas incident, years ago, when I was with my daughter, Lornie, and a UFO came down to our car...seemed like a minute...but after it had vanished...we'd lost an hour of time!) === Page 5 of 20 5 I then made my way out of the old castle through the darkness...way up the hill to where Peter waited in his blacked out car...and told him about the missing seven minutes. When I returned to the lodge and went to my room...my neck ached excruciatingly again...at the base, back, of the neck. (Other nights, I might add, I'd felt like I was drugged, after the castle sessions.) But tonight I was clear, and felt all right...except for the pain at the back of the neck. Summed up...I'd had no visual sighting this night...just seven minutes of time vanished. Next night...moved up through the blackness into the castle...up to the parapet. Snowing heavily. Visibility zilch...nothing. Peasoup fog. Then a bright UFO light flickered up overhead, through the blackness. I was protecting Ron's recorder with my body and coat, from the snow. Must have been zero or below. Freezing cold. Telepathed to the SI's, and to Monster. Walked in circles, around and around in the snow, and the blackness, to keep warm, and to keep a keen watch. My ears began to freeze up, so I pulled a ski mask over my entire head...leaving only eye and mouth openings. Completely socked in by fog and snow, and a thick white mist enveloping me. Couldn't even see Loch Ness, 100 feet away. Real spooky. Time seemed distorted up on top of the castle...not like earth time at all...an hour up there seemed like 15 minutes to me...but when I'd get back to Peter he said it seemed like two hours to him. And I had no recollection of time passing at all. Well, I kept circling, watching for SI's, and/or thugs coming at me out of the darkness. Then I saw something moving around in the square of space...an old crumbled room...next to me. It was white...a white blur, 3 or 4 feet wide. The thing moved around...and I drew my knife and went into the enclosure after it. But there was nothing in there. Whatever it was, had vanished. But I'd seen it quite plainly. People in the village had said they wouldn't go to Urquhart Castle after dark for love or money...because a ghost had been seen up inside it many times. Perhaps this was the ghost. Then...that same circle cleared in the sky right over me...with dark sky everywhere else as far as the eye could see. This made the second night in a row...a huge, giant circle had opened up right over me. Next I heard a huge splash in the water near me. Then I saw a UFO right up over me. I knew, for sure, they were working my brain over! Again I got the strong feeling of being watched and observed. I checked my Pulsar at 12:20; then again a few seconds later, and it read 12:29! I had lost more time; time had vanished on me! Finally I made my way out of the dark castle, and back to the road, where Peter awaited me in his darkened car...and told him about the missing time, again. What was striking...was that the missing time was at about the same minute each night...12:20 to 12:28, and 12:20 to 12:29. Next day three reporters converged on me at the lodge...because of my work, and because of the UFO reported in the local paper. They checked my credentials, then took me to the castle for some photos. At this point...I was terribly bored, and homesick. No companionship...nothing. Just sitting around for hours all day, waiting for the night. And it was my little boy Teddy's birthday...so I called him long distance. At night...vibes were horrible; terrible. And everything was going wrong. The lodge phones were not available. The public phone...I could call out, but the party at the other end couldn't hear my voice. The lodge office was closed, and couldn't get at that phone...so I was snookered, as to communication out. Then the gardener (who doubled as a pro hunter) was replaced that day by another man...and he chose to take it out on me...in the pool room he kept calling out loudly... "run the American back where he came from!" Of course, I was the only American there, in this tiny place. But by that time I'd made many friends...and they shut up the ex-gardener. Then the SI's communicated with me and warned me not to go out to the castle any more without an armed guard...because after the newspaper story (which pinpointed where I was going, and when) had made it too dangerous to me. 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 6 of 20 .6 To add to all of this...I didn't seem like myself at all. More like another personality, or person. This had never happened before...and I mused whether the SI work on my brain...had caused it. When Peter arrived for rendezvous...I told him we'd better cancel...but he offered to go along as the guard...carrying a huge club. So, we went together. This was the first...and only...time anyone at all accompanied me on any of my night work. We moved up into the dark castle to the parapet. There was a full moon...but visibility was bad; there was a dark overcast. However, with another person present...there was no SI contact! It was the difference between hot and cold; white and black. The feeling was entirely different; no good. The second person present seemed to cancel out everything. Next night Peter assured me that it would be okay to go alone up into the dark castle, so I believed him and went on up by myself into the darkness. There was a full moon. The night was clear and beautiful. The castle was all alight with bright moonlight. I telepathed. (Oh, before I forget...that afternoon the wife of the supermarket owner in Drum. had informed me that she had personally watch the UFO maneuver in the sky, the previous Thursday...and I secured a statement from her...which you will get.) As I turned slowly in a circle, watching the skies, the Loch Ness waters, and the shadows nearby...suddenly I saw a huge black mass break through the water out ahead of me! Must have been about 50 feet in length. (Later, back in Inverness, I got a booklet on the Monster...and there was a photo in the booklet...showing this very same picture...this same black mass up out of the water, allegedly the Monster.) There had been no such black mass coming up out of the water on any other night; at least where I'd had visibility. At this point I realized that my location...this spot that I came to every night...was zeroed in by the SI's...for programming my brain, or for invisible approach. And...the castle by now...seemed like a second home. It fascinates me, holds me, attracts me. The castle actually has some kind of occult hold on me, on my mind. And it is the location...where the most people have seen the Loch Ness Monster, for whatever that is worth. To show you how close Loch Ness is...I just flicked my cigar butt out into the water. At this point my feet were numb with cold...and the fingers inside my sheeplined gloves...were numb with cold. I decided not to watch the time...to heck with it...if time was going to vanish, then it would just vanish. I stamped my feet to get some feeling back into them. It was odd that it was so cold...because the night was clear, and shouldn't have been cold. Tonight there was no owl hoot. ..last night the owl had been hooting (like it had way back the first two nights on the Loch bank, down the cliff) but tonight, nothing. I missed it. It was kind of company. The birds on the far side of the Loch were squawking like blazes...something over there getting them upset. Finally I called it a night and made my way out of the castle, back up to the road to where Peter waited in his darkened car. The next night...was a dilly! To pass the time, I decided to shoot some pool with the villagers in the lodge pool room (contained one single table...and the villagers all assembled there every evening to drink beer and shoot pool). Lovey's wife (he was a wrestler) came up and asked me to be her partner. So I was, for one game. Then she went over and asked Malcolm to be her partner. (Malcolm, some nights earlier...I had beaten at 8ball...and he'd calmly walked past me, then swiftly kicked all the glass out of the door! He'd been in the famed Scots Guard...but had been released (I believe for mental instability.) This night...he ignored her, and played with another partner...and she became infuriated with Malcolm rejecting her...picked up a bottle...went up behind him and smashed it over his head! 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 7 of 20 7 He turned around, with a surprised look on his face...grabbed her by her right arm...and flipped her onto the floor, flat onto her back. Then her husband, Lovey, the wrestler, came hurrying over. At this point there were about twenty people in the room...and they began to get out, quickly. Lovey and Malcolm came to grips...and began throwing each other around the room; smashing each other's heads into the walls! banging each other's heads down onto the floor; kneeing each other; etc etc. Meanwhile, I stood there with my cue in my hand...it had been my shot. Everyone else had fled from the room, except Peter...the habitual character and drunk...who'd gone to sleep sitting in a chair against the wall, and not even the sound of the battling had wakened him. Malcolm picked up a heavy chair, threw it across the room right into Lovey. Then he picked up the cue ball off the table and threw it at Lovey...the ball ricocheted around the walls and came to rest, funnily enough...right in poor Peter's lap! Still Peter didn't wake up. They began throwing beer mugs at each other. Beer mugs broke and glass flew all around my head. Chairs flew through the air. Anything went. Both Malcolm and Lovey were in tatters...bloody tatters...both bleeding like stuck pigs. Then I got an idea. But before I could put it into motion...Lovey's wife began to sneak up on Malcolm, who had Lovey down on the floor, fingers intertwined in Lovey's hair, smashing his head down onto the floor. She had a huge glass beer mug in her hand, and was prepared to smash Malcolm over the head with it, from behind. I used a judo handgrab and took it away from her. Fair was fair, I figured. Then I yelled at the two..."someone called the police, you guy's had better get out of here!" Malcolm got up off of Lovey. Lovey called him chicken for quitting the fight, but Malcolm wanted no part of police. Malcolm went out the door, then stuck his head back inside and yelled at Lovey..."but I still say your wife is a bum!" At which point Lovey threw two heavy beer mugs through the glass door at Malcolm. I was still standing there, pool cue in hand, fascinated. Lovey staggered over to the pool table...blood pouring down from innumerable cuts...his clothes in strips and tatters...and said, "Whose shot?" "Your shot," I said...so he picked up a cue, and we finished the game. The room was a complete shambles...you couldn't take a step without walking into broken glass...everything broken and smashed. And Peter was still leaning against the wall, in his chair, sound asleep. Then Peter Wilson drove up...and we left for the castle. Terrible night. Thick fog. No moonlight at all. Pitch black. Could see nothing. And to add to the lack of visibility...a thick white fog up on top of the castle parapet. When I telepathed to the SI's and the Monster...I could easily sense that there was more than one Loch Ness Monster. There's a bunch! For the first time...as I stood in the utter blackness, alone, in the isolated crumbly castle after midnight...I understood something. If any intelligence agencies of any country...wanted to eliminate me because of my link-up with the UFO's...this Scotland situation had been, and still was, pluperfect! I was alone, in the darkness, on the brink of the Loch. Completely and utterly vulnerable to the Dirty Tricks Department of any agency. Also I realized why the SI's had been concerned...there were several characters in Drum who'd cut my throat for the equipment on my back...which would keep them in living expenses for a year or two. I understood another thing...the SI's were remodifying my brain in steps! Quite ingenious of them. If they did it all at once, it would probably ruin me. So...they were doing it piece by piece, place by place...to give my mind time to recuperate, between treatments. And...they would leave it up to me...to judge when my mind, brain, had had enough. And I realized at this point...that they had worked on my brain extensively. The Wednesday before...I had been upset; hostile; a different personality than my normal self. Peter Wilson knew it. Too much work by the SI's on me? That's why they have slacked off, since that time. Then I got a terrible backache, up on the parapet. But had no weight on my back to cause 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 8 of 20 8 it. Then a bright "sword UFO" appeared out over the water, opposite me. And my back kept hurting...at the base of my spine, in the small of my back. Finally time was up...and packed up the equipment...made way out of the dark castle up the hill to Peter's car. Then I hired Ron Petrie to drive me to Edinburgh in his taxi. Got a room at the George Hotel. Bought a new cassette recorder to replace my pocket one that had broken down. Very dull city...ugh. Nice people; but so very very dull. Nothing to do there. No way to relax. But I stayed several days anyway. To relax. What I had been going through...brain modification...had wiped out my energy. Flew to London. At the airport...didn't know whether to take a taxi into London, and cast about for some means of finding Salisbury, or what. The SI's communicated...and told me what to do. So I made inquiry...took a bus to Reading; then a train to Salisbury. Was being watched constantly, by two man teams, I might add. Not imagination, or paranoid thinking. Just a fact. At the Hotel George back in Edinburgh this same man had lurked across the street, watching me come out and checking me back in. Then he'd surprised me...by popping up across the street just outside the front door of the hotel, and accosting me..."What kind of cigar is that you are smoking?" We exchanged cigar chitchat...but I realized that he was peering into my eyes and checking my voice...probably to try and evaluate my stability. British intelligence is not stupid...and they'd most likely been with me in Scotland...American intelligence, you can bet your bottom dollar...wanted to know what I was doing, and how I was doing it...and they'd work with British Intelligence, too. Might drop a note at this point...on the tremendous, overwhelming expense of this entire trip. Beginning with my operation at Mayo...where I'd expected to spend a week...then been held there for a month! Then extensive preparation for the European trip...getting tools and equipment and clothes. And the trip itself.... spending a hundred or two hundred dollars on taxi's, hotels, meals, etc., every time I turned around! It could have only been done...with open-ended funds... which Millie had laid out for all this. (And knowing that my friend George Delavan was covering rent, food, etc., back at home.) Drat it...they lost my luggage carrier on the plane coming to London. Have to get another in Salisbury. Made a mental note to be careful in England...because in Scotland things are more controlled...papers full of crime and skullduggery in England. Secured a room at the White Hart Hotel in Salisbury. Got lucky and quickly found a taxi driver, who agreed to the unusual night hours of taking me out to haunty places. Eric Romaine. Heavy set, pipe smoking gent. Met him at the railroad station, matter of fact...he drove me into town and helped me find a hotel. Said he might have a connection who would help sneak me into Stonehenge. He also knew of an old castle, abandoned, isolated...Old Sarum Castle. In my room, waiting for the magic hour of 11:30, and rendezvous with Eric...I unexplainably fell asleep at 9:20. Woke up some time later, feeling exhausted. Eric arrived on time. We drove out into the black countryside. Cold, icy rain falling. Freezing cold. Eric said he couldn't arrange the Stonehenge deal...so he (and his wife in the back seat...no doubt there because she wondered why, at that hour, Eric would be out) drove me out to Old Sarum Castle, isolated in the country. We got out of the taxi...and found out that the castle was surrounded by a very high fence...only access by way of a drawbridge, which had a gate topped with sharp spikes, and secured by a huge padlock. 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 9 of 20 9 So I dismissed Eric and his wife...watched the taxi with darkened lights turn and leave the location...then I picked up my equipment and moved over to the right of the castle...up onto a hill into a clump of trees. An icy wind was blowing. Two UFO's appeared, after my telepathing. Visibility was zilch; but the UFO's fluttering about were perfectly clear. One "sword UFO" came right at me, at my location. It changed from a white star thing to a dull orange glow (like those had done at the Loch Ness locations). The other one, higher up, did the same thing. Then switched back on to bright again. Then a third UFO appeared, and they arranged themselves into a perfect triangle formation...two up above, and one low for the point of the triangle. Then even more UFOs appeared. It seemed they were putting on quite a show. Changing color; jumping about. The night itself was pitchblack; icy cold; cold rain pouring down; sky murky. Was keeping my new recorder carefully covered, from the rain. Came time to leave, I was numb with cold...the SI's comm'd and led me over to the castle drawbridge and told me how to enter into the castle the next night! They wanted me there. Eric drove up in his darkened car, then...I got in...and told him of the SI plan...and he agreed to cooperate with the plan. Might add here...that all these taxi rides were costing me 15-$20 a shot...and I was taking several a day...scouting out the ground, going here and there. Same with Ron and Peter Wilson in Scotland. And others. Also should add...that the SI's do a tremendous job of leading me to my targets. Tonight, for instance, Eric's wife handed me a book written by Arthur Shuttlewood...about a place called Warminster..and certain hills on which UFO's had appeared. From this book, which I would read...I was guided unerringly to Warminster and to the right places there...and the right people. But...suppose she hadn't shown me the book? This sort of thing was happening on the entire trip. Just this kind of "luck" found me Urquhart Castle and Drumnadrochit. Found the perfect suitcase to take the place of my lost luggage carrier...the thing has a built in handle, and built in wheels. Next day...extreme loneliness hit me with a dull thud, again. Depressed me quite a bit. Night...Eric came by...we went out to Old Sarum Castle. He had a thick blanket; a short stepladder. In the darkness we snuck up to the spiked gate...put up the ladder...I wadded the blanket on top of the spikes, swung my butt up onto the blanket...pulled the ladder up with me...and leaped off onto the other side. Eric got the blanket and took it with him to the taxi, as he left. I left the ladder where it was...and moved through the darkness into the castle grounds...not knowing where I was going inside there. I felt my way through the dark rooms and dark grounds...up and up...and finally found a high parapet on top of the castle. Icy cold up there...couldn't see four feet in front of me, visibility so poor. Not like Urquhart...up there I could check out my immediate surroundings for intruders...not here...all spread out...anybody could come at me from any direction and I wouldn't be able to see them. The cold wind soon began to cut through my pants like a knife. Then the sky cleared, and I could see in every direction out over the countryside. A gale wind was blowing...had to hold the hat onto my head to keep it from blowing off. Cold, biting, icy winds. I tried to light a cigar...and after ten successive matches blew out...I gave it up. I'd goofed in another way, also...had worn soft, felt booties...so that I could pad around inside the castle without being heard, by anybody. Yes, but without shoes inside them. And in no time...my feet were freezing off. I heard a rustling noise over to my left...so I knew for sure that I was not alone up there. It made me uneasy to think of how I had to depend on taxi drivers...like Ron, Peter, Eric...because if any of them failed to show up later...I'd be found frozen in the 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 10 of 20 10 morning! I thought back...to earlier in the evening...when Eric and I had been driving out toward the castle...and we'd passed a girl hitchhiking on the lonely country road. I'd said, "Eric, make a U-turn and go back and pick up that girl. We'll give her a lift before she freezes." "It wasn't a girl," he'd said, "it was a man." (We each saw a different thing.) But he made a U-turn, went back, and the human had vanished completely. Eric and I had both been mystified. Well, at 1 I made my way back down again through the old, dark castle...and out to the locked gate. Eric was there in the dark. I put up the ladder and went up it. Eric handed me the blanket, and we reversed the process to get me down onto the other side. We went tippy-toeing back to his darkened car, deposited the ladder and blanket inside the car...and just then a police car swung up the road and parked about 20 feet away! Now, we are talking about after 1 at night...out in the dark countryside...no lights and no people! I said to Eric, what the blazes, Eric? The police car didn't come over and investigate us...just sat there for a few minutes, then started up and left. We switched on our lights and drove back into town...and found the police car silently waiting for us, half-way, on the road. I didn't like this turn of events at all! Next day I engaged Eric to drive me way out to Stonehenge, to scout it out in the daytime. Soon as I got there, I realized what Stonehenge was all about. It was a mechanism...a machine. A psychotronic machine (see "Psychic Discoveries Behind The Iron Curtain" book by Ostranger, on psychotronic form.) And the key to Stonehenge...so ingeniously planned for in the ages past by the UFO entities...had to be an alien brain set inside it, to activate it! Its power was so intense...that it could not be trusted to a human brain to activate it. Only an alien, UFO brain...with their peculiar laws and compassionate philosophy...could be trusted to turn on all of that power. (Same thing with the pyramids in Egypt, Mexico, etc. They were designed to be turned on, activated, by an alien brain inside same...just like the battery inside an electric watch...and for the same reason.) Now...and this is very important...while activating Stonehenge, several times... I discovered a tremendous secret about Stonehenge...certainly not known to any other humans. Over and above what I have already told you. Stonehenge...has many functions! It came to my mind...that the SI's primary reason to bring me to Europe...might be to activate Stonehenge for them! Secondary reason, the remodifying of my brain (which they did, right enough.) The SI's are most devious...as I have found in the past. Fair as fair, but...devious. Like the time they guided me to Cleveland to "make some food and rent money giving lectures." Uh huh. Turned out...what they really wanted to do...was demonstrate how they could control the entire city of Cleveland...letting me document it for them! Same thing with the country of France...and my small hassle with Dr. Poher there. Discovered twenty pounds (20) missing from my billclip, during the daytime. No way...it could have become lost. Was in left trouser pocket underneath my heavy leather coat. But, you say...perhaps a pickpocket? Not so...the clip itself is of 18K gold...worth $500-$600 at today's gold prices...have had it for years...and no self-respecting pickpocket would take $50 in bills and leave the $500 clip in my pocket! I think it was the SI's...for whatever reason. Because all along the way...things disappeared from my pockets, fingers, belt. But they appeared later, in a different place. This 20 pounds never did reappear. On the way out to Stonehenge, about 3:30 in the afternoon, in April...sunny day... 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 11 of 20 11 I explained to Eric, a most intelligent man...how I dreaded going out to Stonehenge on this sunny afternoon...with tourists standing around, gawking and taking photos...while I mentally concentrate on activating the structure-mechanism. Well, as we drove along...the sunshine turned to light snow. By the time we got to Stonehenge galeforce winds were blowing and there was a full blizzard. One could hardly see six feet ahead. I made my way out into Stonehenge...whilst the tourists there were running out of Stonehenge...and I was left alone to do my work! A miracle if you ever saw one! Just as fast as I had used all of the mental "triggers" the SI's had given me, to activate Stonehenge...they comm'd and told me to get out, fast! (I believe this is the first time they have ever done such a thing.) So I did. Left immediately. My impression was...that in activating Stonehenge, according to SI instructions...I released so much power there...that the SI's were fearful that I could be damaged (since I am not a full SI...but a "half-breed"...half SI, half human. The rest of the day, lonesomeness pounded at me...like waves on the beach. Having no one to talk to, or who cares...or to do anything with...gets to you. Just a hotel room. One of the worst experiences...all of this lonesomeness on this European trip...that I have ever gone through. I contacted the SI's and requested that they finish their remodifying of my brain in Warminster...but they comm'd back ... could my brain withstand that? They requested...that I go to Stonehenge this night...break in...activate it...break out...then go to Old Sarum Castle and repeat the entire process. (Oh...before I forget...last night...I had the windows of my hotel room closed...and they steamed over. During the night I heard weird noises...and at bedtime I found pawprints all over the windows. Considering I was on the second floor...a sheer drop down...brick wall...nothing could get to my windows...this was quite puzzling. Except I remembered the time on the Arizona desert...sleeping out in the open in our car...and we'd wakened in the morning and Beau had said he'd seen a "monster face" at my window during the night. Then I'd gotten out of the car and found pawprints and clawmarks in a peculiar stain...all over the car...and something had ripped our back tire, so that it was flat. ) Eric picked me up at 11:30. We drove out to Stonehenge, while I told him what the UFO's wanted me to do. I used the thick blanket up on top of the spikes on the gate...and went over. Now, this is out in the country. Everything dark and pitchblack. No one out there. Stonehenge just a black, dark bunch of rock shadows far over to my left...across a field. Occasionally a car would pass...then I would fling myself flat, to avoid the lights from the car picking up my silhouette in the field. Finally, after getting over several smaller fences...I reached the famous rocks of Stonehenge. I slipped in amongst them...quiet as a mouse in the darkness...found my spot between the two rocks, where I'd been in the afternoon...and commenced using the "triggers" the SI's had given me. But in about 3-5 minutes a light flickered amongst the giant rocks...and I knew I'd been set up. Because lights from the road, far away, wouldn't reach inside Stonehenge. I fell flat between the two rocks, hoping whoever it was would take a quick look and go away. But no...the powerful beam moved straight over to where I was and shone down at me, where I lay inside the rocks. They knew...just where I'd be! I slowly rose...saw a policeman...and thought oh boy, I've had it now! He told me that I'd have to leave, and not come back. That's all he said. He didn't ask me who I was...what I was doing there...or anything. THEN HE TURNED AND WALKED AHEAD OF ME...HIS BACK TO ME...ALL THE LONG WAY BACK TO THE ROAD TO ERIC'S CAR! Now, I'd just broken into a national monument...and you know, and I know, that ordinary police procedure calls for the cop to have me show identification... 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 12 of 20 12 give a reason for being there, at that hour of the night...and of course no policeman in his right mind would turn his back on some mysterious breaker-and-enterer...and walk out ahead of him! UNLESS, THAT IS...THE COP KNOWS WHO THE INTERLOPER IS...AND KNOWS THAT THE INTERLOPER IS HARMLESS...WOULDN'T HURT HIM! And this...had to be it. He knew who I was...knew where I'd be standing...knew I wouldn't harm him. Well...I skipped the castle, naturally. The cops had almost gotten us there the night before...and I figured that now they'd zeroed in on me...I'd be a dead-duck if I tried the up-over-the-spikes routine now out at the castle. So...back to the hotel...and I raved and ranted in my hotel room for hours, I was so furious and frustrated...because I'd come a long way, and gone to a lot of trouble and wear and tear...to get this thing done for the UFO's...only to be blocked and frustrated at it. In Scotland...I was not blocked. The castle gates were left unlocked for me. And I got results. UFO's appeared, and were seen by others, as well as myself. But now, in England...fooey. The authorities were smoothly blocking my moves. Then I found that my favorite hunting knife was missing from my belt. I'd had it on me...at Stonehenge. Had it for 20 years, and was my favorite (I have a collection.) I determined to go back to Stonehenge at early morn...before tourists got there...and find it! Early morn...called Eric...went out to Stonehenge before it opened to the public. Was first in line at the ticket window. A voice said "You back again?" I laughed and said sure...and buying a ticket, just like anybody else. It was the same policeman, and he emerged from behind a two-way window. I told him I'd lost something the night before. So he took me back into Stonehenge...it wasn't there...but I found it out in the field. The policeman walked me back to Eric's car, then left. I told Eric...I am going to wait half an hour, then go and buy a ticket, go back inside Stonehenge, and activate it in the daytime again...as long as I can't get in at night. And that's exactly what I did. And this is when...I found out a fantastic secret about Stonehenge! During the day...the SI's comm'd and instructed me to skip that night...just rest. Was having supper at a quaint eating place...when an amusing thing happened. A tall, gray-haired man...and an American, judging from his voice...stood about six feet away, talking to another man. We were probably the only two Americans in Salisbury, England, at the time. I called to him and asked him where he was from. Virginia, he said. (I live in Virginia.) Oh boy, I thought...now I'll have somebody to talk to! So, to kid him a bit and warm things up...I said, oh yes? Tourista! Gringo, go home!" and grinned, thinking he'd come over and join me at my table. Instead he got furious, turned his back on me, and walked out of the room. I laughed for half an hour...at the irony of it. Next move...I took a train to Warminster, England. And the very first thing that happened...was most funny! I asked the driver, Peter, if he could do a very special job for me (meaning my night-routine at haunted castles and hills.) I told him I would like to hire him to pick me up at about midnight to do something special. He studied me for a minute...said, I've got just the man for you. Name of Ricky. And he drove me out to some houses; went in, and brought out a tough looking mug. We three went to a nearby pub, where Peter left us by ourselves. This Ricky took me over to a corner table...and proceeded to let me know how valuable he was...as a fence, handling diamonds! Explained how he'd worked in African diamond mines. I laughed and told him that I wasn't in 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 13 of 20 13 the diamond trade...especially smuggling diamonds (which evidently was his line)...and he quickly got up and departed. I left the place and Peter was waiting outside. I went with him to the Beeline Taxi office and made arrangements with the manager for a night driver to pick me up at 11:30 PM. Then the driver helped me find a room at the Farmer's Hotel. (I'd made prior arrangements, by long distance phone, from Salisbury to Warminster, to stay at another hotel...but the driver told me it was a bad place...to stay at the Farmer's Hotel. So I did.) This hotel...had a ghost, I found out later...had been seen many times...and played tricks on people. The hotel was hundreds of years old. Took a walk into downtown Warminster, and winced. Really mean, tough-looking people here. Gangs of motorcycle riders...clad in black leather...hung all over with swastika pins and the like. I was awfully lonesome..but couldn't even find somebody to talk to. The people there, I discovered...hated Americans. Just like they do in France. Night, and the taxi driver picked me in front of the hotel. The cold was intense...freezing. I told him to drive me out to Cradle Hill, to an isolated location. He drove far, far out...on a country road which would lead to a deadend...but before we got there, another car pulled in front of our car. My driver was astounded. What? he said. Nobody comes out here this time of night...into this isolated country location. At the deadend, the other car made a U-turn, swung around us (and I caught a clear look at the man seated on the righthand side, front...he had a peculiar black beard...a most unusual design)...then the car drove a small way down the road, parked, and switched off lights. I ignored it, and got out. My driver drove off. I climbed over the gate at the deadend, and found three different roads, leading off in different directions. I decided to take the one going up to the top of the hill...where I could see a black outline of trees in the darkness. The driver had said that the hill was barren. The hill was very steep, and I huffed and puffed my way up it, until I'd gotten 2/3 of the way up. Then I could see the outline of a building in amongst the trees. Was it a house? If so...the house might have a vicious dog...or someone might think I was a robber, and begin blasting away with a shotgun...so I stayed where I was, 2/3 of the way up on the hill...on the lonely road...and telepathed to the SI's. A UFO quickly appeared...flashing orange, red and yellow colors. I talked into the tape recorder and pointed out...its color difference from the silvery stars. And as soon as I had done so...the UFO color changed to silver! Just as if it knew what I was saying in the recorder, and made a color correction. This reminded me of Loch Ness...when I had telepathed to the sword UFO's to let me alone that night...and they had immediately turned off...from their brilliant white color to a small, orange glow. Then my tape went bad, of all things...and I could no longer communicate into the recorder. Over to my right...was a huge black cloud...with swirling fog inside it...covering the dimension of a football field. Everywhere else the night was as clear as a bell...so this black cloud stood out like a sore thumb. Finally, as I left my location to go back down the hill...THE BLACK CLOUD FOLLOWED ALONG BESIDE ME! The driver was there; I got in; we drove down off the lonely road...and durned if that same other car didn't pull in behind us from somewhere and begin to follow us. The driver admitted that we were being followed. The other car followed us to my hotel, where I got out, cussing, and went to bed. Speaking of cussing...when you hear the tapes that I made...please forgive my unusual language. Unusual for me...that is. Ordinarily "durn" and "heck" are the extent of my strong language. But night by night exposure to the SI's and 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 14 of 20 14 their powers...seemed to bring pressure on my mind...that caused me to revert to my old Navy language of 194145, long years ago. I found myself cussing like a trooper, as they say...when blocked, frustrated, etc. I apologize for it...when you hear it...but cannot change it...from the standpoint of experimentation and observation...since it happened, and is a part of all that happened. Next day I hired the taxi driver to take me out to Cradle Hill...and I walked way up it to check out that "house"...but discovered that it was a peculiar, sealed up building...LIKE a barn, but not a barn. Beside it...lay the ruins of an old house. I left, and walked back down the hill to the driver, who had waited. He warned me not to go to Starr Hill, because the army was holding secret maneuvers there. As we passed one hill...I liked it...Copheap, off Elm...and made a mental note to return there some night. Back in town...I determined to find this Arthur Shuttlewood...and secure some of his books for Millie, George...and was directed to the owner of Payne's Drugstore, who presumably knew Arthur. (And, this shows...how the SI's were following me and guiding me.) As I stood inside the drugstore, talking to the owner...the owner said, why, there is Arthur's son now...he just walked in! I went over to the lad, about twenty years old...and gave him a message for his dad...relative to a meeting together. (forgot to mention...the night before I'd had a precog dream...dreamed of an elderly woman...who had dark, black spots on her left leg. This day...an elderly woman was my waitress at the hotel...Peggy...had the same face as the woman in my dream. I asked her if she had any dark spots...birthmarks or whatever...on her left leg. She said, why yes...lifted her long skirt...and showed a bunch of dark bruises on her left leg. Said she'd fallen over a bed. The taxi picked me up about 11:30 PM...and out we went again onto the deadend road at Cradle Hill. The night was very dark, and very quiet and still. As we reached the end of the deadend country road...there ahead of us was the "other" car...of the night before...waiting, with lights off. Oh, was I mad! I didn't know who there were...seemed to be three of them in the car...but I had waited all day long to get out here and meet, alone, with the SI's...and these men were blocking me! I could return to the hotel, and play it safe...or...and I decided that it would be "or". I told the taxi driver to take off...and stood there in the blackness of the night, at the locked gate...studying the other car...and cussing (as you'll discover on the tapes!) After a long while the car door opened, and a man got out...and began to slowly approach me. I warned him, and I surely meant it...not to come any closer...and he stopped dead in his tracks. "Aren't you interested in why we are here?" he asked. "Not at all," I told him. "I'm here to do something very important...and it does not concern you." He stood there for about five minutes, it seemed, in the darkness before me...then slowly turned and went back to the car, and got back in. The car sat there for a while longer, then switched on its lights and drove off, back down the hill, out of sight. That left me alone, in the darkness and the moonlight, and I breathed a sigh of relief. I'd been ready to take on all three of them...if I had to. I climbed over the gate, and started up the road to the top, where I'd scouted during the day...but the SI's comm'd and said no, not to go there. So instead, I took the next road...and followed it in the darkness. Soon a bunch of trees caught my eye over to the right (where the dark cloud was)...and I cut over across the field into the trees...and found that the trees were on the edge of a cliff. It was a dandy location, and I settled down 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 15 of 20 15 for a good get-together with my UFO friends. Nobody could come at me, without my discovering them...pitchblack darkness or not...because with the cliff at my back, I could spot anything moving through the darkness toward me from the front... It was icy cold there, inside that clump of trees. I'd walked right inside that peculiar black cloud with the swirling mist inside it. I telepathed to the SI's. Later, as it came time to leave the location...I walked out of the clump of trees...when I suddenly heard these strange, weird, eerie sounds coming from the trees I'd just vacated. (I was approx. 100-200 feet away, I reckon.) I turned to see what on earth could have made those sounds...sort of a cross between a screeching eagle and an animal...and just as I turned...a flaming ball of fire shot down out of the sky...right down in front of me...to the position I'd just vacated! It was a lovely, gorgeous, beautiful sight! In short, a UFO...type I'd never before seen, and I've seen many...had come right down to where I was! And if it hadn't "called to me" I wouldn't have seen it! (You actually have that UFO sound on your tape!) Went down and met my taxi. Thank goodness there was no sign of the other car. Next day I made a startling discovery. My eyebrows had turned gray! Now, the hair on top of my head has been gray for a long while...but my eyebrows have been a deep red color. Not a silver hair among them. Suddenly, today, they are 2/3 gray! I shave looking into the mirror each day...and these had not been evident before. I wondered if the black cloud I'd walked into...and the flaming UFO the night before, which had "called" to me...could have turned my eyebrows gray! In early evening, Arthur Shuttlewood, the famous author, came over to the hotel and spent an hour with me. In our chat, we discovered that his life...and my life...contained many of the same elements (as he points out in his new book, where he's doing a chapter about me ("Invisible Worlds"). (Also, oddly enough, all of the many twists and turns of Edgar Cayce's life juxtapose perfectly with those of my own life! For whatever it's worth, I just mention it in passing....) Now, this ghoulish-looking man had been following me for days...when I'd go into the dining room to eat...he'd go in to eat; and sit and stare at me. When I'd go into the TV room, he'd go in...and sit and stare at me. Well, this night, before the taxi driver arrived...the wife of the hotel owner came running upstairs and begged me to be careful. "This man who's been following you," she said, "looks dangerous...and he's downstairs now" (this at almost midnight, when nobody, but nobody, usually stirred in the hotel but me.) "He's been acting very suspicious this evening," she continued, "so my son and I have been watching him. He's downstairs now, at the foot of the stairs, pretending to be making a phone call. Except he's never dialed the phone. My son and I have been watching him. He's just standing there, waiting for you to come down. So do be careful tonight." I assured her that I was always careful...and thanked her...and went down the stairs. Yes, there was this creep...standing over against the wall, in the shadows, watching me...holding the phone to his ear. I went to the front door and looked out. The creep called over to me..."You waiting for a taxi?" "Yes," I answered back, "but how did you know?" He didn't answer that. My taxi arrived, and I went out and got in. (Next morning the owner's wife told me that the creep had gone out right after I left...and hadn't returned to the hotel all night.) When we drove up the long, dark country road to the deadend dropoff for me, the taxi driver turned to me and said, "You know something? You've got more nerve than I've got." And he looked out into the spooky blackness and shuddered. I got out, and he drove off. I studied the layout around me carefully...to see if anything, or anyone, moved in the shadows or along the ground...but everything seemed all right. 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 16 of 20 16 It was icy cold, and a powerful wind was blowing...blowing so strong you could hear it on the tape recorder. Pitch black dark...very spooky. I walked through the darkness up the second road...then as soon as I could make out the clump of trees to my right I wheeled and ran over into them, out of sight completely from the road...or any other place, for that matter. I lay down on my right side under the tree...my back to the cliff...in the pitchblack darkness...and telepathed to the SI's. In my prone position...I had the big advantage of being able to see low...that is, if I stood up, it was so dark I could see almost nothing...except the sky. But down flat on the ground...I could see the rise of the hill where'd I'd come up outlined against the sky...so that if anyone tried to trail me up the hill, I had an excellent chance to spot them. Suddenly there was a UFO right up over me. Then a second UFO flashed over me. Then two more UFO's flashed right over me. It was incredible to me...they were so numerous...so wondrous to see. Next an airplane flew onto the scene...no doubt from the Warminster Army Base, to check out all those UFO's. (I got this on tape.) Finally a last, beautiful UFO fluttered over me...flashing on and off, silent, darting about in sudden, quick movements which only a UFO can do. I realized with a sort of shock that five (5) UFO's had been directly up over me, this night! At time to leave my stand...I walked down the dark hill to the deadend gate, and climbed over. But no taxi. So...I decided to just keep on walking down the pitchblack dark hill road. Am glad that I did...because in a few minutes, to my left...I saw something moving...stopped, and observed it. It was a baby sheep. So cute and darling. Standing to my left, just beside the road...chewing grass in the night darkness. Close by to it, was a second baby sheep...just as cute. I watched them for a while, then continued walking down the road. Finally the lights of the taxi shown in the distance, as it came driving up the country hill road...and when he reached me, walking down, he apologized for being late. Actually...in all the many, many nights I went out to haunted castles and haunted hills to rendezvous with the UFO's...and the flock of taxi drivers who'd taken me out then returned to get me, later on...this was the first, and only, time a driver had goofed. Quite remarkable, I think. When I got back to my hotel, I made a strange discovery. There were five red dots on the palm of my left hand...and they burned like they were afire. Then I made another startling discovery...my "cross" ring had vanished off my left hand. Of my several rings, this one was my favorite...because it had tremendous sentimental value (actually, it was given to me, in a way, by the UFO's themselves)...so, I was horrified. Next morning, early bright, I called the taxi and went out to Cradle Hill, to my "stand" from the night before. As I searched around in the grass for the ring...a car pulled up close to me, on the lonely road (I'd left the taxi driver waiting, far down the hill) and uniformed military officers got out of the car. I thought...oh oh...now what? But they studiously avoided looking at me, although they were quite close by...and sort of walked around in the field near me. I left, went back down the hill to the taxi, went back into town...went to the local newspaper and put a reward offer for the ring in the classified section...then went to the cab office and told the manager I'd give a reward to any taxi drivers who might run across the ring. Then I returned to my hotel, and had supper. When I reached into my pants pocket for my billfold...there was my favorite "cross" ring in the pocket. No way. My pockets are jammed up with objects...scissors, knives of all sizes and shapes, documents, pens and pencils, and so on into the night. And I know where each object is at all times. The materials are all skillfully, intelligently organized. I can instantly reach into any pocket and take out any object I want. The ring simply could not have jumped from the little finger of my left hand...into my pants pocket. Impossible. But...I was delighted to be able to say hello to it again! 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 17 of 20 17 That evening I told the taxi driver to take me to Cradle Hill again...but he surprised me by saying, "I thought that you said you wanted to go to Starr Hill some evening. Why not go there tonight?" Previous to this, no taxi driver had opened his mouth to suggest that I go anywhere...unless I asked him first. So...this unsolicited idea-suggestion came as a surprise. So I told him...okay. He drove us far out into the country, up a winding road, onto a hill...and he said okay, here we are. Just then the SI's comm'd...and instructed me to leave this place alone...and to go to the odd-looking, pointy hill called Copheap, off Elm St. I so instructed the taxi driver...who turned the taxi around in the darkness then drove all the way back to the Cradle Hill area...let me off on the dark road at the bottom of Copheap. I walked across a long, dark field toward the black bulk of the hill...then laboriously climbed up the steep hill in the blackness of the night. Lots of trees and logs...some of which I tripped and fell over, since I never used a light. Up, up onto the top of the hill. It was very very cold. Below and over to the side were the lights of the town. The top of the hill where I stood, slowly circling...was inky black...thick with trees and bushes. It was an absolutely fine SI rendezvous spot...except that, oddly, I sensed intelligence down underneath my feet...and wondered if, perhaps, the army had a secret layout built inside this hill. There's one in West Germany like that...I know because an ex-intelligence man confided in me. Might add here that, while climbing up the hill...two flare-like lights shot up over the hill...but I suspect that they were army devices. Didn't seem like UFO phenomena to me. After a long while...and after telepathing to the SI's...my head began to ache and throb. Something told me...I'd reached the absorption point...the point of no return...from the forces of SI-remodification. So I quickly packed up the equipment and started climbing down the dark, steep hill. As I did so...a sword UFO appeared...brilliant white light with radiating spokes...at ground level, not up in the air...and it followed my descent, followed my every move, as I moved across the dark field toward the road. It seemed like an eye watching me, and following my movement...I waved a hand to it in friendly greeting. While crossing the darkness of the long field...I heard a human cough over to my left, twice...would estimate 50-100 feet distance...so quite obviously I was under human surveillance. The taxi met me at the road, and I returned to the hotel. Now...I felt awful...my head ached; my body ached; and just deep down...I felt terrible. The feeling is indescribable. The SI's must have really unloaded on me, up there on the hill, their powers for remodification. At this point I knew for a certainty that under no circumstances must I expose myself further to SI remodification...because most certainly it would result in damage to me. They do not have limited, human bodies...they have other-dimensional life forces; other physical laws govern them...so it must be up to me to say "enough" when I've had enough. And I have. The next day a newspaper reporter came to the hotel for an interview for a local paper. Also, the SI's comm'd...and instructed me...warned me, in fact...not to proceed further in meeting with them. That remodification had been, in fact, accomplished by them. They told me to rest as much as possible...that it would take time, earth-time, for the other-dimensional forces they had planted in my brain to grow and become effective for use. How long, I asked them back...but there was no reply on that. I inquired re the purpose of the remodification...and received encapsulated intelligence...that the hundreds of miracles which I had accomplished heretofore, with my half alien brain, were as nothing compared to the miracles that I will be able to accomplish in the future...with this remodification process. And...my SI brain will be used to help the human race in a most peculiar manner. They want me to become a sort of "world fireman"... 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 18 of 20 18 dashing off to one country after another..........using other-dimensional powers in a constructive, creative manner..........to "put out world-fires"; i.e., catastrophic events harming the human race yet not helping Nature..........I'd use the analogy of the control of useless pain, wherein a person is tortured and racked by, say, cancer pain..........so that the pain is controlled by drugs, hypnosis, etc. Because Nature uses pain as a most useful mechanism, ordinarily..........but there are situations in which pain has no use at all..........and therefore must be controlled or eliminated by cutting nerves, using drugs, etc. Well..........a geographical area in the world could be beset by "useless pain" in the same manner, causing woe to the humans in that area. A hurricane, say, headed for Miami, Florida..........would serve no useful purpose to Nature, but would cause humans "pain" as it spun towards the large cities. A terrible drought in Africa or India..........would be considered "useless pain" to the humans in that area. A volcano blowing its top and spewing its lava down toward populated cities or towns..........would be an emergency to be controlled by myself and the SI's. And so on. Well, I have documented the control of hurricanes, droughts, and volcano control..........already, in the past..........by myself and the SI's. But ahead in time..........I will be able to do it more easily and quickly..........and on a far more powerful scale..........at least that's what they indicate to me. And of course..........there are many many more world-situations which could conceivably occur as an emergency situation for the humans in various world areas..........for me to go to, and control. For some reason unbeknownst to me..........the SI's wish my physical presence, around the globe, at the location of the miracle to be brought about. I've pointed out to them that I have no monies..........and it would take a fortune to do this sort of thing for them. And that's where it stands with regard to my buying airplane tickets, supplies, etc., to go packing off to India, Egypt, Africa, etc., to help there in those places. They gave me no answer on it. But I cannot conceive that they would go to all of the trouble that they have gone to..........to get me to Europe to redo my brain..........only to let the infinitely-intelligent plan fall through because of lack of human monies to carry it out. Arthur Shuttlewood came over to the hotel..........presented me with a carboncopy of his new book, "Invisible Worlds"..........which contains a chapter on me and my work, and my meeting with him. I packed up and took a taxi to the train station. There a man dressed in black, wearing black gloves, paced all around me, watching me. Got onto the train..........and the same man in black kept walking back and forth outside my compartment, glancing in at me. Went to eat in the diner..........and he came in, took a table, and watched me. He had the strange mustache-beard that the man in the "other" car had had, which kept following me up to Cradle Hill then back to my hotel. Could easily have been the same man. Forgot to mention..........had a deep cut on my thigh this morning, with red edges around it. About two inches long, puffed and swollen. There was no way..........I could have gotten this cut on my thigh during the night..........and didn't have it before. Arrived in London, and took a taxi to the Waldorf Hotel (not to be confused at all with the Waldorf-Astoria in New York!) Room rates reasonable. Was worn out and exhausted..........from the SI work, I suppose..........so just took it easy the rest of the day. Next morning was astonished to discover that I'd slept through..........not to morning, excuse me..........but 3PM in the afternoon! I couldn't believe my watch! When I awoke, it seemed like my usual 9 AM wakening. But 3 PM in the afternoon? Unbelievable, to me. Further, My eyes were red..........and there was a redness of my upper chest and neck..........when I touched it, it turned white, like sunburn does. Except I hadn't been under any sun! What happened last night? Also my brain was groggy and fuzzy. My reflexes were cockeyed..........slow. I felt weak. When I went outside to walk..........I found myself === Page 19 of 20 19 walking aimlessly, without purpose or direction..........quite unlike me. I felt all muddled up inside, and confused. Almost got hit by cars half a dozen times. My timing was bad, and could not judge how to cross streets..........I kept zigging when I should have been jagging. In short..........I was not myself; not Ted Owens..........sure-footed, fast moving, fast reflexes, knowing usually where I was going and what I was doing. Was almost as if there were another intelligence inside of me..........sharing me, you might say..........and it had not yet adjusted to my bodily reflexes and mental processes. Would take some time for it to adjust to my unit; my mechanism (body and mind). But..........if this disorganized state of affairs would be due to a post-reaction to the work the SI's did on me..........then I'd just have to wait to get over it. I remembered the first time the SI's had modified my brain..........in Mexico..........and it took years to get over it. I'd become disorganized and confused, and wandered for some years..........quite unlike my natural self..........until my mind had cleared. I remembered the policeman in that famous case..........the UFO named Floyd..........and the cop had shot at it. Afterward he went haywire..........quit his police job..........left his wife and kids..........and went wandering off to California, where he dropped from sight. Close exposure to SI work..........can have this effect on a human mechanism. And I had just been over-exposed to a great deal of close exposure to many many UFO's! The shock of the UFO work on me, I concluded, was just hitting me. I spent days making copies of my original tapes; fearful that something might happen to my originals before I got back..........wanting a spare set. And as I made the copies, playing the originals over..........I got headaches and dropped off to sleep several times in midday. I hoped that in some way I was not being re-exposed to the SI powers. The next day..........I was my old self again. Sharp and clear; thinking decisive and logical. Timing perfect. Now a phrase kept creeping into my mind..........and I realized that a scrap of material was penetrating into my conscious mind, in spite of the fact that the SI's had undoubtedly given me posthypnotic amnesia: "The hill is the only reality..........your life is an illusion." If the SI's had given me this sort of powerful hypnotic suggestion, while they "had" me..........then it would explain my positive love for Urquehart Castle, and the various haunted places I went to at night. My craving to go back, night after night, into the black darkness..........without any fear whatsoever. Cautious apprehension with regard to human thugs, yes..........but absolutely no fear of the darkness or the UFO entities that I knew were out there. Also a face kept coming to me in my dreams..........and during waking. The face of an alien female. Tiny face; metallic (not human skin)..........but her eyes were the main thing. Like silver metal..........with just a small dark dot in the center. Not like our eye-pupil whatsoever. Cute, sexy little face she had. I reckoned that somehow my mind was recalling a few bits and pieces of what had happened; what I'd seen, etc. Her face was moonshaped; had an elfin expression. The thought came to me..........that if the SI's "boosted" the power in my right lobe, and modified its mechanism..........then it would naturally take time for the left lobe, the human half of my brain..........to adjust and get into a balance..........with the right lobe. A few more fascinating things to mention. While at Mayo Clinic a young lady called me long distance from Beaufort, North Carolina. (Still do not know how she got my phone number at my hotel in Rochester, Minnesota.) Anyway, while we were chatting..........suddenly she said something which had nothing whatever to do with our conversation. 07/25/2025 16:44 === Page 20 of 20 20 She said, out of the blue..."Do you like to go fishing?" We'd been talking about her recent visit to my home in Virginia...and I couldn't see any connection whatsoever to what we were talking about. I blinked, at a loss for words...then gave her some kind of answer. She didn't explain the strange sentence interjected into our conversation. Then I met a young lady there at Mayo Clinic...a registered nurse...who volunteered to come up to the hotel and keep me company, so that I wouldn't be lonesome. She'd sit, knitting, and we'd chat. She discovered during our conversations that I was planning to move from our Virginia home...and actually volunteered to fly to Virginia and help me...because my bilateral hernia operation would make it difficult for me to move without help from some quarter. After I left Mayo she did, in fact, fly to Virginia, and helped my family pack things...she cooked for us...she gave priceless help, where help was needed. As I drove her to her return airplane she said to me..."Ted, do you like to go fishing?" I was dumfounded. That same sentence...spoken out of context with any conversation we were having. The thought occurred to me...had I been programmed somewhere along the way by US Govt. agents and given this posthyp trigger? The way it was done...would simply exclude coincidence. But...it happened again. During the few days in London while I was making tape copies, and trying to relax...I went out to dinner in Soho. Afterward, before returning to the hotel...was walking down the street...about 47th and Frith, I think it was...and a strikingly beautiful young blonde woman in a mink coat walked toward me, a smile on her face...and stopped briefly beside me...looking up into my eyes and smiling. It was an open invitation, and instantly I recalled having read of the London street prostitutes...yet she didn't seem like a pro hustler at all. I smiled back at her, then proceeded on walking. But I glanced back...and saw two men accost her (they'd witnessed her brief pause with me)...and to my surprise she turned up her nose at them...wouldn't speak or look at them...and she walked quickly up the street and turned the corner, out of sight. A while later, after I'd idly gawked into windows up and down different streets...I dropped into a pub to have a beer before returning to the hotel. Was standing at the bar, sipping the lager...when who pops up in front of me but this same pretty girl, smiling into my face. She said, "I've a place inside. Are you interested?" Another invitation. "Come on," she said, "I like you. I really do. DO YOU LIKE TO GO FISHING?" I politely disengaged myself from her and returned to the hotel. But was shaken by this exact, third use of that what must be a key sentence. Well, finally got onto a Jumbo jet back to New York...when the last, astonishing thing happened. I was back in the third section of the plane. Movies were to play in all three sections. Our movie started...then the sound went haywire. The air hostess went to everyone and offered to refund their money. I asked if the other two movies had gone haywire. No, she said...they are fine. I asked her if it was usual for the sound to go crazy during one of these airborne movies. No, she said...it was the first time in all the years she'd been working the planes...and she added that the flight engineer couldn't understand it. I told her about my brain...which causes things like that to happen constantly at my home in Virginia...and showed her a few books and mags re my work. Then my favorite cigar lighter vanished from my top pocket. No way it could have gotten lost. Lighted a cigar; put the lighter inside my pocket carefully...and it was gone! Hostesses came over and searched me, my bag, under the seats...nothing. After I got off the plane a man came running into Customs after me...said the lighter had turned up...and he gave it to me. That made 20 pounds; my knife; my ring; and now my lighter...vanishing. Luckily I got through Customs without getting racked up for not declaring stuff in New York before starting. Closing now. Millie, the SI's and I are forever in your debt for that European work. And George, the same, for keeping me going at home.

Recorded by Lewis Barlow July 9, 2025 === Page 2 of 35 January 22, 1976..........THE EGYPTIAN REPORT.......... TO MY SCIENTISTS: This...is a long-delayed report with regard to my trip to Egypt, and the priceless information that I discovered there. The trips and the information...were a gift to me and the SI's...from Millie Miller, without whom it would not have been possible. I might add...Millie could only furnish "shoestring" money for the trip... and I used an American Express card for the rest. I nearly ruined myself, that way...because I am unable to proceed as the ordinary tourist would proceed. I have to bribe here, bribe there...to get certain things done. My drivers go out after midnight...or at all hours...sometimes for the entire day...and I cannot count pennies...it has to be all out or nothing at all. So when I got back...I'd spent all Millie's cash...and was deeply in debt to American Express. Sent them back their card...borrowed $500 and sent to them...and still owe about a thousand, which I cannot pay at this time. All right...just wanted you to know how I have been doing it. We are talking now about early June, 1975. I flew to New York and took a plane to Rome airport...where everybody had to leave the plane and be searched by guards with submachine guns...thence on to Cairo, Egypt. I had no plan...knew nothing about where I was going...didn't know one pyramid from another, or even where they were located. But this is the way I have always proceeded...the SI's clue me in as I go along...and lead me unerringly to the right place/places, as they did in Scotland and England. (See your files for that report.) As soon as the plane landed in Cairo...a beautiful young lady seized my arm, and to my amazement hustled me through Customs and Immigration and bypassed me through a bushel of formalities by the authorities. She worked for an organization called "Green Valley"...as it turned out. Without her wonderful help I'd have spent an entire day bumbling about the airport...trying to cope with the bureaucracy there. She asked me where I had a reservation. I said, "what reservation?" and I thought she was going to faint. She explained to me that hotels were all filled in Cairo...nothing to be had without a reservation. Then she got on a phone...and in minutes told me that she had a nice double room for me in the El Borg Hotel in downtown Cairo. A ten minute taxi ride took me to the El Borg, and I went up to my room. It was spacious...and outside was a patio looking down over Cairo. One point bothered me...the patio had no railing as such...no protection... and if anyone wanted to liquidate me (don't laugh...many top UFO investigators have had mysterious "heart attacks" and fatal accidents) this would most certainly be the place to arrange for it. Night came on, and I left the hotel and walked across a long bridge into the city. Thousands of people, cars, busses, were pouring along the streets...most picturesque locale. Went back to the hotel...and doormen and elevator operators began to teach me Egyptian words for "up" "down" etc. I don't know why they did, but it was most helpful and I welcomed the "instant education." Someone had warned me never, but never, drink the water in Cairo...so I bought a fifth of Scotch and dipped my toothbrush in the Scotch...and brushed my teeth thusly during all my time in Egypt. Believe me, it's the ONLY way to brush! Next day, June 12, a Green Valley bus pulled up in front of the hotel and took me far out into the Sahara. My guide was Abo...an Egyptian approximately fifty years old. The first place he took me was to a pyramid...went down inside a secret passageway and came up in hidden rooms. I became greatly excited...because the stone ceilings were 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 3 of 35 Page Two covered with STAR carvings. Stars all over the ceiling. Then Abo further excited me by telling me...that this was the hidden chamber of King Ti Ti. And that the pyramid was made of limestone. Let me explain my excitement. Some years ago...for some reason I wanted to call myself "Ti Ti" and even painted the name on my ties, in oils. When I was a small child everyone called me "Ti Ti"...my family and all my school friends. But there is much more. My grandfather was an orphan...left on someone's back steps. At age six he supported the old folks who took him in...by shooting rabbits with a broken shotgun. At age twelve he went to work in the famous Indiana Limestone stone quarries (limestone). He was a waterboy, and was paid 15 cents a week to carry water to the stone workers. At age 25, he had become Vice President of Indiana Limestone...and was listed as one of the "great men of Indiana." Somehow he had a tremendous genius...he invented methods of coloring the limestone...of getting it out of the ground...of cutting it. The experts would call him on the phone...I was there at the time...and tell him, "John...we need so many tons of limestone, of a certain kind. Where can we find it?" And he would tell them. Then they would say, "How will we get it out of that corner of the quarry?" He'd suck on his corncob pipe, smile, and say, "I'll take tomorrow off and think about it." Next day he would take me (he and his wife, Queenie, raised me, for all practical purposes) out to Williams Dam, get a rowboat, go out onto the dam...toss our fishing poles into the water...and he'd smoke his pipe and think. At sundown we'd come home...he'd get pencil and paper and draw a complicated rig to get the stone out of the ground...call the experts and tell them he had their answer. (same as are in Cairo, Egypt...and in pyramids.) But there is more. When he became rich he himself drew up plans for a huge mansion in Bedford, Indiana. In front of the mansion he placed two life-sized limestone lions...hand-carved to his own specifications. Inside the house he had a huge sunporch...and he brought an artist from New York down to paint on the ceiling of the sunporch a blue sky...filled with STARS...identical to those I saw, and photographed, in King Ti Ti's chamber! He even nicknamed Clonia, his wife..."Queenie"...and bought her a jeweled crown to wear...as if he were a king and she were a queen. All of this...smashed into my awareness and consciousness...as soon as I got into King Ti Ti's hidden room. You are welcome to draw your own conclusions...as to why it did. While in Ti Ti's pyramid...not the SI's, but another entity or intelligence source communicated with me...and warned me NOT to touch the walls or any part of this or any other pyramid with my skin or hands...because ancient "PK" mechanisms had been set, long long ago, to affect interlopers (those who did not belong in the structures) destructively. (It was at this exact time...that I recalled, while in Philadelphia, Pa., some years ago, doing my miracles...the SI's had shown me with an inverted giant pyramid over me...the point of the pyramid inserted into my brain with the huge base far up overhead. I even had drawn a picture of it at the time and notified my usual contacts about it...in 1967, 68. What this meant...I do not know. But here I was...inside pyramids, real ones...not other-dimensional ones.) Abo then took me to the building of the great High Priest of Egypt...Ka Gemni...and instantly the intelligence (from now on I will call it Pyramid Power) informed me that this was a key place that I was looking for...for me to do my work in! Abo also took me to the Great Pyramid, Cheops, and to Cn Ness...and I was instructed by PP (pyramid power) that these places were also key places for me. (or "Pyr Cre" for pyramid creature) 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 4 of 35 Page Three Now, understand what the background for all of this was: I'd have to have had training through 50 professions; have a Mensa brain; had special training in parapsychology; had my brain modified by the UFO's, then years later remodified again in Scotland-England; performed over 300 miracles embodying other-dimensional principles and effects; then brought to Egypt. Why was I brought to Egypt? I did not know. I only knew at this point that I had key OD mechanisms (other-dimensional) to use inside key places. So at each location Abo took me to...I shooed him away, as well as the guides... and telepathed the OD mechanisms. This first day...after going through this harrowing mental work...I was knocked out completely. Evidently my telepathing was connecting with the ancient mental powers left behind by the Egyptians, and it was too much for me... (my special half-human, half-Si brain, extra-powerful, notwithstanding.) So I ordered Abo to take me back to Cairo, to the hotel...and to forget the rest of what he was going to show me. When he and I returned to the bus... I found that my tape-recorder, which I had left inside the bus...had been tampered with. Someone had been listening to the tape on it. As I recall, there were just two other men on the bus at that time...and they had stayed behind at the bus while Abo had taken me inside the last pyramid. Or, it is possible that a "bug" had been placed inside my recorder...because I had noticed that I'd been followed...surveillance techniques...in Cairo. Anyway...on the bus back to Cairo...the PP communicated, and explained about the "false doors" Abo had shown me inside the key places. (At the temple of the High Priest, Ka Gemni...a false doorway had been carved into a block of solid rock. It was not a doorway; it didn't open. Just a huge block of solid rock, weighing tons. In the ancient Egyptian days the people would bring gifts of food and jewels and place them in front of this false door, turn their backs, and when they had turned around again the gifts would be gone. The High Priest had come through the solid rock, taken the gifts, then gone back again through the solid rock. The PP explained it to me: UFO entities had come and trained a handful of these High Priests, and given them supernatural powers...one of which was to pass through solid rock wall. (Jesus did, you know, or was alleged to so have done.) Because the High Priests had this special power...the Egyptian Kings, whom they served, knew them for what they were...UFO-trained key people. And every so often...the King would order the High Priest to pass through solid rock. If he could not do so, then he had disobeyed some rule the UFO's had given him (and they did give the High Priests rules to follow) and the King would then tie up the High Priest and leave him up at the top of the Pyramid...where he would then vanish, never to be seen again. Another thing that the PP explained to me was: that the pyramid itself, is the illusion...but the various other-dimensional powers left in it, to grow as time went by...was the reality. Treasure left inside the pyramid was to satisfy, and throw off, the understanding of mere humans. The REAL treasure left inside the pyramids...that is, the key ones...was a TREMENDOUS EDUCATION OF WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE LEFT BEHIND FOR KEY PEOPLE IN THE FUTURE WHO COULD LINK UP WITH IT, BE TAUGHT BY IT, AND CARRY ON! Obviously I am one of those key people. Nasr, my Egyptian guide and guard who took me up inside Cheops...informed me that he had worked there for thirty years, and only once...one time...had another man such as I...requested that tourists be kept down inside the passageways (as I requested)...so that the man could do mental work up inside the King's Chamber (the key spot of the pyramid. So there had been one other...long ago...doing what I am doing. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 5 of 35 Four Back at the El Borg Hotel I collapsed into bed...at mid afternoon... and conked out. When I awakened it was dusk...and I reflected upon how much I had done...and learned...from the days journey into the Sahara. That the pyramids had been ingeniously designed to satisfy ordinary humans with treasure inside...thus stopping them from discovering anything further...just as is done in Brazil, for instance -- when a rancher brings his herd of cattle to a river, he tosses one cow into the river...and the piranha fish gobble up that cow. While this is going on, the rancher is just down river getting his herd across. The piranha do not get the real treasure...and the humans have never gotten the real treasure of the pyramids, either. This day in the Sahara had turned me completely around. I'd discovered that what I was here for, in Egypt...was completely different than what I'd supposed. I'd supposed that I was here to ACTIVATE pyramids as I had done with Stonehenge. Instead, I had been approached and communicated with by the Pyramid Intelligence, or Power, and TAUGHT AND TRAINED. Notes at this point: At Cheops during the day...the Great Pyramid...one has to climb way way up high inside the pyramid, bent over at a certain angle part of the way. It is my belief...that this passageway was designed in this special manner...in order to HURT INTRUDERS WHO HAD TO CLIMB UP IT...that is, affect them physically and mentally. I know that it absolutely wrecked me...climbing that passageway! Of course, I was carrying a camera and other equipment...but should not have been so affected. I was warned again...inside Cheops...by PyrCre (Pyramid Power) not to touch the walls or any part of the pyramid...that it would be far safer to put my finger inside a live electric socket, or into a cobra's mouth. (Those were the pictures and intelligences flashed into my mind by PyrCre.) Also, I was carefully instructed by PyrCre, telepathically, to be sure and telepath to PyrCre as soon as I entered a pyramid...ASK FOR PERMISSION to be inside...and explain carefully that I was not an intruder...but was borrowing PyrCre's power...to help the human race. I wondered if I should tell Nasr, my pyramid guide...or Abo, my pro guide in general, about the danger of touching any portion of the interior of a pyramid, or key place...but PyrCre telepath'd not to tell them...they had done it for years...and it was too late for them. Later that afternoon Abo called me up, came and got me, and drove me out to see his brother, Abo No. 1. ("My" Abo was called No. 2) They put their heads together, then Abo No. 1 told me that Abo No. 2 would take me to the Egyptian Museum in Cairo...that they felt it was in my best interests to go there and see all of the artifacts and have Abo 2 explain their history. We would go to the museum the next afternoon. I felt that this was useless, for my purposes (but as it turned out...I learned invaluable information when I did go the following day!) Added note: During the day I learned that the passageways inside the pyramids were constructed of blocks of stone ingeniously, like a Chinese puzzle...robbers would get through one or two into a passageway...when suddenly they would be confronted by another block of stone which would come crashing down, blocking them. PyrCre telepathed that the real treasure...was not what the robbers found inside the secret passageways...but behind blocks of stone WHICH COULD ONLY BE OPENED BY AN ALIEN MIND OR AN ALIEN-TRAINED MIND using telepathy and psychokinesis (a combination of both). I.e., what was in effect was a PROGRESSION...from the low to the high...from gems and gold, the low...to HIGHER FUNCTIONS OF THE MIND, the high...and this fact was something that ONLY AN ALIEN MIND COULD "SEE" OR DETECT, because of being equipped with higher powers of the mind, than human. This reminded me of a passage in the Bible..."render unto Caesar what is Caesar's...and unto the Lord what is the 06/28/2025 15:0 === Page 6 of 35 ge Five Lord's." In the context of which I have been speaking...the UFO's and the High Priests whom they trained...rendered gems and gold unto "Caesar" (meaning human robbers)...and set up priceless gifts of other-dimensional "time-capsuled wisdom" for later aliens to come to the pyramids, read sign correctly...and "browse in that kind of library." Now, maybe I'd better spell out...what I've been discussing. I understand it easily...but I am dealing with human minds...who just might not understand. If an alien person (from another planet, or another dimension)...or a half-alien like myself who has been trained by aliens and has half-alien brain...comes to the pyramids in Egypt...then that alien quickly realizes what the human beings from centuries past have not realized...that the HUMAN treasure of diamonds, rubies, pearls, gold, etc., found in the pyramids...are merely a DIVERSIONARY MEASURE...put in the pyramids so that the humans will go no further. They have what they want. Things...that will bring them money. All right. But the REAL treasures in the KEY pyramids and temples...are other-dimensional time-capsules left there ages ago...containing wisdom of ages past known only to the High Priests and the UFO entities that taught them...just as if you would walk into a modern library filled with books...the alien walks into a pyramid, uses the correct approach consisting of telepathic key symbols and psychokinesis, blended...and presto, wisdom and knowledge, great great wisdom and knowledge, from the ages past begins to penetrate into their mind or brain in ENCAPSULATED FORM (that is, they will not grasp it all that day, that week, or that month...the information and knowledge will pursue them, wherever they go after that...and they will have it all...IN TIME. Might take years...but that "time-capsule" of wisdom and knowledge will BE GIVEN TO THEM EN TOTO, even after they leave Egypt. This, then...is the VERY REAL treasure...of the Egyptian pyramids (key ones only...there are many pyramids...but only certain ones are the KEY ones...and only an alien brain can separate the key ones from the "dummy" ones...which is why there were so many pyramids built.) Well, back to my hotel. It was night, and I couldn't sleep. The mosquitos were eating me up. In the morning I went into the Hilton restaurant and had breakfast. Since having been in the pyramids I was horribly dehydrated for some reason...and I lined up six huge glasses of orange juice and downed them all...then drank three huge glasses of milk...then bought a huge bottle of mineral water and drank that. The waitress stood by with eyes and face expressing astonishment. (From that time on...whenever I finished my work out in the desert re the pyramids and temples...the same thing happened...I had to get back and down enormous amounts of liquids.) On this particular morning a strange thing happened...I SAW MY DOUBLE. Never in my life have I ever seen a face that looked like mine. But sitting not far away were two men...AND ONE OF THEM WAS THE SPITTING IMAGE OF ME. I mean...if you put the two of us together...I really am sure that you could not tell which one would be me, or him! I rose from my table and walked over to their table...they stared up at me...I said: "Pardon me...but looking at you is like looking into a mirror! You and I are twins!" My look-alike said stiffly "I can assure you that we are not related." I was sort of ill at ease with his cold manner...and I stammered "The only person I've ever met who looked like me was my brother Jack." The man stared at me coldly...with my face and my eyes...and said "Well, I am not your brother Jack." I laughed ha ha and said sure, Jack was dead...and excuse me for bothering them...and returned to my table. But I can tell you...that was a REAL SHOCK! I mean, suppose you looked across the room...AND SAW THE SPITTING IMAGE OF YOURSELF SITTING OVER THERE! 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 7 of 35 Page Six Note: After having been inside the secret passageways of the key pyramids and temples for several days...a strange taste and smell had come into my mouth and nose...and would not leave. A strong, musty smell and odor...most peculiar smell and odor. It was powerful in my mouth and nose all the time I was in Egypt...and still lingers on at this late date, 5/19/76) Note: (I am taking these from written notes that I jotted down at the time, or put on my recorder then jotted down later)...while in Egypt and inside the key places...I did not have the feeling or emotion of affection or closeness...that I felt in Urquhart Castle in Scotland. I.e., while in Drumnadrochit, Scotland, area...I felt an emotion of love or affection for the area, somehow; while in England, at Stonehenge and at Warminster on Cradle Hill...I felt as if I were RETURNING after a long absence...but no emotion of affection as in Scotland; and in Egypt I felt the least affection or closeness. But in Egypt...I felt the most psychic power coming at me...than the other places. Might mention prices in the restaurant in Cairo...most amusing. The average meal cost $6.00 to $10.00. Small orange juice, 60 cents; cup of coffee, 45 cents; glass of milk a dollar, and so on. I had thought prices in Paris were murderous...but Paris is a piker compared to Cairo! Abo came to my hotel and got me and off we went to the Cairo Museum. It wasn't long before I understood why PyrCre had had Abo bring me here! Abo showed me the mummies taken from the pyramids; the gold and treasures that had been found inside the pyramids; the weapons and personal ornaments of the peoples of that age...and there, on a huge golden chair taken from a King's chamber inside a pyramid...WAS MY SI DISC! This, from ages past. Next, I saw some figures inside glass cases...carved out of some kind of wood. I asked Abo what they were...for what they were HAD BEEN IN A PHOTOGRAPH I TOOK IN MAINE SOME YEARS AGO! (Which appears in my book. One face looks like a wolf...and another a huge bird with a beak.) Abo explained that they were ancient gods of Egypt...Horus and Anubis. Ah, the disc on the throne, mentioned above...appeared on King Tut's throne. Another interesting thing...among the artifacts were BLOWGUNS. I hadn't known that blowguns existed in ancient Egypt. But they did. Now keep in mind my being called "Ti Ti" as a child, and all about my grandfather and his tremendous genius along the lines of the ancient Egyptians...when I was a small child, about eight years old...the kids in my town of Bedford, Indiana, formed gangs and threw rocks at each other. But not me. I TRAINED MY OWN GANG TO MAKE BLOWGUNS...by utilizing copper tubing, match sticks with the end slotted to put bits of playing cards into for guiding fins...and a needle driven into the other end...blowgun! We went at the other gangs with our blowguns, blowing needle-darts at them...and were greatly feared for this. BUT AGAIN...WHAT INSTRUCTED A SMALL COUNTRY KID IN THE HILLS OF INDIANA TO CONSTRUCT SUCH A WEAPON? The year was 1928. Back to my hotel, the El Borg. Everything in Cairo is done on a bribe basis, I found. Such a bribe system you couldn't imagine! In the Hilton restaurant I'd been leaving a 10% tip...then weeks later discovered that a 10% tip had also been added to all my daily bills, and deducted at the cashier! So I'd been knicked for 20% all along! So I began not tipping the waitress, but just paying the 10% listed on my check...but then the waitresses came to me and told me not to pay any attention to what the printed check said...but to leave them their tip! Ha ha. I had to tip the hotel clerk $30 to extend my stay at the El Borg (because there are no hotel rooms to be found in Cairo, and you can only stay so many days in the one that you have)...at Cheops I had to bribe Nasr, the pyramid guide, twenty bucks to hold back the tourists so that I could get my work done alone up in the King's Chamber, the secret room. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 8 of 35 Page Seven This was every day! By Friday, June 13, 1975, I had paid out $200 in bribes alone. I bumped into a man called Ali...and he invited me to his huge shop where he sold Egyptian things. I carried a small Panasonic radio (they don't have them in Cairo...these tiny portables, it seems, or so he said) and he saw it and went wild. What could he trade me for it, he asked? First we sat down and he offered me hot coffee (thick Egyptian coffee, not to be confused with our coffee) or cold beer. This is done any time you enter any shop in the Cairo Bazaar (part of town, the Bazaar, where most of the shops are). It is custom. Business is not discussed. You sip coffee and chat, then after a polite interval of say, ten or fifteen minutes, and your coffee is finished...you get up, look around, and maybe talk business with the shop owner. I found that the shop owners...although like hawks when it comes to business...are also like small children. Ali finally traded me out of the radio, and Hassan, another clerk in the shop who had first talked to me...asked for a "present" too, from me. I.e., we were not "trading" but giving each other "presents". Ali gave me an inlaid cigar box and a Cleopatra tray, intricately made...as his present. I gave him the Panasonic as his present. That's the way they do it. Another amusing thing the guides did was...after we'd been swapping, Ali said he wanted to take me to meet a friend...and he left the shop and drove us to another shop...his father's shop...and we went through the sipping coffee routine...then his dad tried to sell me Egyptian curios...but I told him that I was not on a buying trip, but thanks anyway. We parted friends, regardless of no business having been transacted. And some days when I'd hire taxi drivers to take me out into the desert...when we'd get back to town they would not take me to the address I'd give them...they would drive up in front of a shop...get out and take me into the shop, telling me that the owner of the shop was their friend and would give me special prices. One day a driver did this. "But I don't want to go into that shop," I told the driver, "I want to go to the Nile-Hilton (the boat I stayed on later.) He stood and sulked, with the shop owner at his elbow...so I just took off and walked the ten blocks to my hotel. You see, they all do this, the taxi drivers...and they get bribed by the shop owners to do it, plus they get a commission from what the shop owner sells the tourist. It reminded me somewhat of the day in Paris when I'd put the family in a taxi and instructed the driver to take us to the Eiffel Tower. He let us out in front of an odd building. I said, "Is this the Eiffel Tower?" He said oh no, that the Eiffel Tower wouldn't be as much fun as this place...a huge park...and for us to go and have a good time in the park! At the time I was very angry at the taxi driver for taking us where he thought we ought to go...instead of where I told him. But as it turned out...we had the best time we had in Paris at that park. But back to Egypt. At 6 PM in the evening I was supposed to catch a bus to the train to leave for Luxor...in upper Egypt...to see the pyramids there. The van driver took me to the train...onto the train...and showed me a compartment, which had other suitcases in the compartment. I hit the ceiling. But he ran out and off the train. See, I had been followed all around Cairo...little men hiding behind potted plants and walking behind me, stopping when I stopped, and so on. I didn't mind surveillance, but this was ridiculous. Evidently Egyptian intelligence or CIA had put a man in my train compartment, for whatever purpose. Well, if they thought I was going to sleep in some train compartment with a strange man...ha ha ha! So I picked up my luggage, left the train, and took a cab back to the El Borg. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 9 of 35 Eight Later PyrCre explained to me that It did not want me to go Luxor...and had caused me to turn back...that the key places for me to do my work...were in the Giza area, the area of the Great Pyramid and all of that. NOT in Luxor. It explained that again, Luxor had been a diversionary measure by the ancient ones...in Luxor they had put oodles of golden things and treasure and places of great beauty...contrasted, say, with the starkness of King Ti Ti's pyramid or the Temple of On Ness or the Temple of Ka Gemni. BUT...the real goodies were at the dull, drab, stark places. Where I was. Not at the flashy, beautiful layouts up in Luxor. At this point in time...I wanted desperately to return home. Yet, I could not. Something held me in place, to stay and keep on doing what I was doing each day...which was to have a driver take me out into the Sahara desert to the key places...go into each key place...to the key place in the key place...and use the mental, other-dimensional mechanisms to activate that particular place. But I had to skip days. The awesome psychic power that I was linking up with...in the key places...absolutely wiped me out on my daily sojourn! So I had to slow down to every day...out to the desert. I had the feeling that if I attempted this work every day...that the power emanating from the key places could kill me. That strong. (Later I was astounded to learn from PyrCre...that during the interval I would be inside a key place, activating the power there...THE POWER WAS TEACHING ME! A reverse process! On a deep level, which I was not aware of.) Listen, something happened most odd! At the Temple of On Ness...I walked on through out into the Sahara Desert, and idly glanced down onto the ground, and saw a stone with a perfect figure of a lady dancing on it! Flint stone. I picked it up and put it into my pocket. The next time I came out to On Ness I walked through the Temple...and an old old man stopped me. "I would like to give you this" he said, in slow English...and he put a coin into my hand. It was a French coin...WITH THE EXACT IMAGE OF THE DANCING LADY ON THE STONE ON IT! I mean...identical. I carry them in my pocket to this day, and every so often take them out, compare them...and wonder. The stone, of course, is ages old. Who was the old man? I'd been alone when I found the stone (among thousands of stones strewn all over)...he couldn't have known about the stone. ????? And why would he have GIVEN the coin to me? In Egypt nobody GIVES anything! All is trade, bribe and barter. A giant hustle. You should see the large image of the dancing lady on this black flint stone...then see the same exact image on the coin...your eyes would pop out! I bumped into Ali in Cairo...and he eyed my camera and other equipment with greedy eyes. Why, he asked me, didn't I leave all my expensive equipment with him at his shop...each day when I went out into the desert? Carefully I refrained from breaking out into hysterical laughter...because all of these shop owners, although like children, are thieves of the first water. "Thanks a lot, Ali" I told him, "but no, I need it with me." For any of you who might ever go to Cairo, Egypt...you could learn something from my experience. Upon first arriving in Cairo...the young lady from Green Valley met me outside the plane and guided me through all the red tape. "And be careful," she told me, "of the Hunters." "The Hunters" I asked? "Yes," she replied, "here in Cairo are some of the greatest thieves in the world...who have shops in the Bazaar. They are called The Hunters...because they hunt tourists and take their money...and are so great at it." 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 10 of 35 Page Nine I was still at the El Borg Hotel. This night I awoke about two in the morning... scratching and covered all over with mosquito bites. I said to hell with it, got up, got dressed, took the elevator down, walked across the bridge over the Nile... and something led me to a boat parked on the Nile outside the Hilton. Now, I knew that there were no rooms to be had in the Hilton... I had tried. I went onto this yacht-boat thing, called the Nile Hilton. Over the gangplank down through doors opened by a doorman I could rent on this boat. I asked the desk clerk if there was a stateroom I could rent on this boat. He smiled and said no. I grinned... having learned something... and said, "Listen, I'll bet you fifty dollars that you do have a room somewhere on here. Will you check your book again and see?" (I bet him he DIDN'T HAVE A ROOM, you see?) If he came up with one, then he gets fifty. He laughs, says "Discuss it with the manager! He's sitting at that table over there in the lobby, listening to us." The manager had heard it all. I turned and bet him fifty he didn't have a room. He examined his finger nails, then called to the clerk to give me stateroom such and so. I handed the manager fifty dollars and said, well, you win and I lose... and moved into the stateroom... which had no bugs, no mosquitos, no busted plumbing. Then went back to El Borg and moved out, and into the Nile-Hilton. The staterooms were on the bottom of the boat. On the topside was a big restaurant on one side; a bar on the other. On the fore deck were about thirty tables with awnings where people could order drinks and look out over the Nile river... which the boat sat right on the edge of. At night it was a gorgeous sight... the black Nile river there in Cairo, where Cleopatra once boated... and now you could see families out in their boats, going up and down the Nile in the evening, enjoying the night air. Mr. Salama was the gent, manager, I'd bribed with fifty. They gave me ten days, too, which is more time than is given to most tourists. Oh, and I had to bribe the clerk at El Borg Hotel five pounds TO GET OUT AND LEAVE THE HOTEL... because I'd bribed them previously to extend my stay there... now I was cutting my stay short. (Remember this particular clerk... he pops up later mysteriously.) Cost fourteen pounds a day to stay at the Nile Hilton. After I moved my things to the Nile Hilton, I went, at four in the morning, into the Hilton to get breakfast at their restaurant, The Ibis (which was to be a sort of headquarters for me while in Cairo... and where I had a lot of fun... as you will see.) Have been extremely ill for days... am weak as a baby... knocked out. Just passed out in my stateroom for a couple of days... didn't know what time it was or what day it was... and couldn't have cared less. (Incidentally... if I accidentally repeat some material herein... forgive me. It could happen. Just be patient.) Ali, Hassan, and Abo... all have begged to take me out to some desert city in the sahara at night... Saraha City, it's called... but have refused... want to keep my mind on my business. Evening... went into the Hilton lobby... and heard wild drums beating! (I'm a former pro drummer, of years past... and these drums were great!) A whole bunch of female voices were yelling like Comanche indians. What it all turned out to be... was an Egyptian wedding. First came about twenty little kids carrying long, tall, lighted candles. Following these kids were about ten women beating on drums... and I mean, it sounded good enough to match Buddy Rich! After them came a belly dancer... dressed in filmy, gauzy gown... writhing and bumping and grinding. Following her came the bride and groom... in bridal attire. I noticed that the groom never once took his eyes off the undulating hips of the belly dancer in front of him... and idly I wondered how his marriage would turn out. His wife to be in a few minutes... kept giving him angry looks. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 11 of 35 167 The next thing that happened...people on both sides of this strange wedding train...began throwing coins onto the floor in front of the couple to be married. I gasped...this, in show business, is the ultimate insult. Another adult behind the couple ran around scooping up all the coins. I asked someone standing nearby what the coins were for...and they explained that it was a sort of dowry for the married couple. Well, anyway, the belly dancers and drummers and kids and married couple all went up the stairway to the upstairs place where the nuptials were to be tied. I went back into the Ibis Cafe to get some orange juice. Now I can't use the Green Valley bunch...to go into the desert. Since the train fracas. It is costing me a lot more money now...have to hire independent drivers, taxi drivers, who park outside the Hilton, each day. Goes like this... I walk up and down the line of taxis and scrutinize the drivers until my mind senses the right one. I go up to him and we begin to bargain. They all know me...Cairo, Egypt, has millions of people...but as far as what goes on is concerned...it is like a town of only 500 people. The shop owners and taxi drivers and hotel employees have a spy system that would put the CIA to shame. And they all share the information...because they can be mutually helpful to each other in steering tourists around and relieving them of money...for a commission, of course. My driver settled for ten pounds for the afternoon in the Sahara, contacting all the key places. The taxi drivers were all anxious to take me out...because each time I went out we'd stop on the way back at a desert oasis place which serves good food and ice cold beer...and I'd let them imbibe and eat all they wanted, as my personal guest. No other tourists gave them this...so they almost fought over who would take me out into the Sahara. I went back to the boat and assembled my tools for the trip...when suddenly someone inserted a key into my stateroom door and opened it. A man stuck his head in. I started for him...his head popped out of sight and the door closed. I went out to the desk in the lobby and complained. The clerk shrugged his shoulders. Watch it, I thought. (This same thing had happened when I was staying at a hotel in Rochester, Minnesota, in early 1975...there was a knock on my hotel door...when I went to the door and opened it, two men ran down the hall, away from me. I chased them to find out who they were. AND THEY VANISHED in an end of the hall that was padlocked. Nowhere they could have gone. Utterly mystifying. At this point...PyrCre telepathed to me and instructed me in the finer points of telepathing to the power in the pyramids and temples I would be going into, for my own safety. It was a sort of mental ritual...to follow...once inside those places...and completely necessary...unless I wanted the Power inside to track me for the rest of my life and finally destroy me...as those Powers had done with so many people (remember 19 of the 20 scientists who broke into one of the Egyptian king's tomb? All eventually died of freak, violent accidents.) It was an odd time for it...but I suddenly realized...what had happened in the court reporters office in Norfolk, Virginia...some years past. I'd been sitting in the office, alone, typing...when suddenly I HAD HEARD A BRAIN WORKING. I said out loud..."Come on in, Frank." (There hadn't been any footsteps or warning noise to alert me.) The office door opened and Frank walked in...a court reporter...with another court reporter, a girl. He was pale and shaking. "My god," he said to me, "how did you know I was out there?" I couldn't explain to him...that I'd heard his brain out there...so I just grinned. And I wondered...why I would remember this thing now. Might mention here...that I spent only 30 minutes inside each key pyramid or temple, using my mental system to contact the Power within. Why not the 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 12 of 35 Page Eleven whole day? Because...it would destroy me. You see, I was bringing the power of my half-alien, modified and re-modified brain...into direct contact with the INFINITELY powerful live intelligence left behind in ancient times...to merge with it...PyrCre, if you will...and after 30 minutes I was exhausted and would have to take a breather until I got to the next place. Just 10 minutes of this action in Cheops alone... would nearly wipe me out, mentally and physically. As PyrCre (Pyramid Creature) explained it to me telepathically...It had waited for ages...for an alien to return to the Pyramids and Temple key places...and activate the places once again, as was done in the old days. You see, Stonehenge...which I had activated at an earlier date (see your files)...was a sort of computer/switchboard for the UFO entities. Stonehenge is linked up...to the key pyramids in Egypt...key pyramids and places in Yucatan (Mayans)...and key pyramids and places in Peru (Incas). When I activated Stonehenge all these other pyramids in other geographical locations were alerted...much like a silent burglar alarm will register off somewhere else in a police station. So I was setting these giant power-sources in motion, after ages of inactivity. And both the SI's and PyrCre were gently guiding me, instructing me, at every step of the way. I dictated into my recorder...Friday morning, the 15th. Then I went across the road to the Hilton...where I was informed that it was SUNDAY THE 17th! I refused to believe it! I went from taxi to taxi, checking the date...and it was true. Somehow...I had lost two days of time! This...has puzzled me ever since. It put me in mind of the two nights when I stood on the lonely, dark parapets of Urquehart Castle...and lost eight minutes each night (see your files.) Of course, this wasn't eight minutes...it was TWO DAYS. Understand, I keep a close record of time...days, hours, minutes...with two recorders constantly kept in action...one in my pocket, and one that I carry. So the chance of my making an error re time or date...is remote, to say the least. Sunday...today...Abo took me out onto the Sahara. One of the key places I'd been activating was the Temple of On Ness...and Abo explained that it meant "Son of God." At this point the SI's, or PyrCre, telepathd to me and explained that they considered me "their child." Inside the secret passage and secret room of the Pyramid of On Ness...is a ceiling covered with stars, mentioned earlier. It is a very powerful room, psychically...and a very special place. After we left there and went to Cheops...and I climbed up inside the secret passageway to the King's Chamber, with Nasr keeping the other tourists far away at the bottom... I found a "bug"...a listening device...behind the casket of the King. Was CIA or Egyptian Intelligence trying to listen and find out what I was doing? Comical...since I am doing it mentally. If they put that thing there to find out what I was saying, or mumbling... other-dimensional "trigger" mechanisms to activate that Key...then they were grossly disappointed! I'll tell you something at this point...which is not very couth. But just in the interests of being accurate as to what is going on...all this Egyptian action took place in June of 1975. Am finally getting around to typing it in May of 1976. Now, every ten minutes, as I type, 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 13 of 35 Page Twelve I find that I have to get up and go to the bathroom and piddle... WHICH WAS ABOUT THE SAME THING THAT HAPPENED WHEN I WAS IN EGYPT. I.e., just thinking back on all this...seems to have a dehydrating effect on me... Today I walked out of the Pyramid of On Ness...and automatically I turned a corner and walked to the right...in the wrong direction to get back to the Temple, quite a distance away. My native guide called out to me...ran over...and sort of in a daze I told him... This is the right way...there should be a doorway here in the center of the bottom of this pyramid!" It was as if I'd been there before and knew what I was talking about. The old guide studied me, then said: "Long ago there was a building constructed from the Temple, far over there...to this exact spot that you point to. The scientists also have long wondered why the building led to the solid stone blocks of the pyramid here at this point...and have searched for an entrance... but have never found it." He then showed me bits and pieces of stone fragmented over the ground, leading from the pyramid over to the Temple. In the Temple of Ka Gemni, famous and powerful High Priest of ancient Egypt...I made my way through various rooms and hallways...to a back chamber...unerringly...being guided by PyrCre, I suppose. It was a relatively small room...with the colored rock drawings over the walls... but on one wall, on my left, was a huge life-size portrait or picture of the High Priest himself, pointing his magic wand at the drawings on the far wall. On my right...was another, exact same, picture of the High Priest pointing his magic wand at the drawings on the far wall. Immediately...I knew...that this was the key spot...where the High Priest himself had stood...and what I was to do. I was to stand... arms extended and fingers rigidly extended...and "see" lightning coming out of my fingers, the lighting striking the colored pictures on the far wall (I won't tell you which ones, as am forbidden to do so.) If you think this is far out...please recall that I have documented in the past making lightning strike certain targets, with witnesses present...and I did it in this same manner. You may have this in your files.) This action...would activate the key spot...in this key place...accompanied by the proper other-dimensional mental mechanisms. Oh, I might mention...each time that I went into action in one of these key places...all the Power left behind in the pyramids...focused on me. It was like having some living thing...a formidable living thing...sit and stare at you. z AS I left the temple of the High Priest...(or was it On Ness? my notes got scrambled on this)...I saw a high wall with cobras carved into the top of the wall. I pointed them out to Abo, and asked him if he knew what the cobras meant. He didn't. I made my right arm into a "Z"... the cobras were all alike...coiled into a striking Z...EXACTLY IN THE SAME MANNER THAT PYRCRE HAD INSTRUCTED ME TO HOLD MY ARMS INSIDE THE HIGH PRIESTS KEY ROOM! I.e., the cobra sign...meant the High Priest... with both arms held in a Z shape...lightning coming from his fingers, which were pointed at the key portion of the room. Which...caused magical things to happen. Perhaps you are puzzled about "the power" I am talking about in these key places. Might be easier for you to understand it...as an extremely amplified form of PSI FORCE POWER 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 14 of 35 e Thirteen At Cheops..........the Great Pyramid..........Nasr took me up again to the King's Chamber..........through the secret passageway. He paused, turned to me, and said: "You know, I've been working here for 30 years..........and only one other time has a man come here as you come. He, too, had me hold back people at the bottom of the Pyramid..........while he went up to the King's Chamber to work with his mind up there, he told me." This was most interesting..........that another human had come and done as I am doing. After being in Cheops each time..........it was especially dehydrating..........much more so than the other places..........and when I'd come out I would have to rush someplace to drink bottle after bottle of pop or cold beer. Those who are interested in "pyramid power"..........might take note of that. Abo surprised me..........by now he'd seemed to grasp what I was doing..........and turned to me and said: "Ted, now I understand. At first I did not, and thought that you were a tourist and a crackpot. Now I know that you are not. What you are doing..........is making friends with the ancient High Priests!" Of course, in essence, he was quite correct. Would like to add something that has not much business being in this file. Each trek out into the Sahara..........we would drive through the busy, teeming streets of Cairo..........out out out into the countryside. We'd drive along dirt roads underneath palm trees..........and girls and boys would be swimming naked in the Nile, accompanied not by pet dogs..........but by water buffaloes. Women would be walking along the road..........carrying giant baskets on their heads filled with fruit or laundry..........carrying a baby clutched to their bosom. Little boys and men would come racing along the road, riding their camel. Well, the point I want to make..........they all seemed very happy. Smiling, laughing..........mothers all carrying their babies..........some babies too big, but they'd carry them anyway..........all of them laughing and happy. I've been around the world..........but have never seen such happy people. They have very little, in the way of worldly goods or belongings..........but I'll tell you they are happy. Back in Cairo, went to the Ibis Cafe in the Hilton for supper. Abo surprised me by walking in. He told me that Green Valley had sent him..........because they were upset by my beef with them over that train episode. I said sure, tell them to give me my fifty bucks back. He went rushing off to the telephone, then returned, pulled out a bundle and gave me fifty dollars, saying that they had agreed, wanting to keep peace with me. I tipped Abo fourteen bucks and thanked him. He grinned..........said that Green Valley was also tipping him..........for settling the matter. In the cafe, I noticed for the umpteenth time..........the same surveillance agents peering at me. Never one. Always two, or more. (Later this was brought out into the open by Abo, as you will see. Not my imagination at all.) One would inevitably be English..........the other Egyptian. And they were so cute and funny about it..........I would catch them hiding behind the draperies and peering around the draperies..........jerking their head back when I'd spot them. Ha ha. Now, I was working three major pyramids each time out in the Sahara..........plus some table key spots. PyrCre had instructed me not to roam all over Egypt to other places, north or south..........but to concentrate my powers on activating these three pyramids. Today I looked at a map..........and saw that the three pyramids..........if a line were drawn from one to another..........MADE A PYRAMID! Most interesting. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 15 of 35 Page Fourteen As I have said before, everything in Egypt...revolves around bribery, tipping, corruption, commission. For instance...when Abo took me to Cheops Pyramid today...and Nasr, the government guide, took me into the pyramid while Abo waited outside...Nasr stopped and said, Ted, please do me a favor? When you leave, tell Abo you've paid me another ten dollars...making twenty...will you? (See, I'd already paid, tipped, Nasr twenty to keep the tourists back...but Abo gets a commission off any tip I give to Nasr...and Nasr only reported ten...but innocently, without knowing the setup, I'd told Abo I tipped Nasr twenty. Now Nasr wanted to get straight with Abo...or Abo would steer tourists in the future away from Nasr. Sound complicated? It is, believe me. I told him, okay. So when I left and rejoined Abo...I grinned at Abo and told him I had given Nasr the other ten dollar tip. He grinned at me, and winked and nodded. Nasr walked up to him and slipped the commission from the twenty into Abo's hand...and everyone was friendly again. Next Abo wanted me to ride a camel. I said, man, what? I am here to do something much different than riding camels. But Abo has a charm and persuasiveness which Phil Silvers (Sergeant Bilko) would envy. And before you knew it, he had me on the back of a camel, to ride from Cheops down to the Sphinx. The camel trainer, a young fellow in his teens, held the reins of the camel and ran along beside the camel and me. Abo followed in his taxi about 100 feet behind. Suddenly the young camel driver uttered a command...and the camel began running. Now, I don't know how long it's been since you've been on a camel...but let me explain. A camel is a giant creature, not to be fooled with. To get on it, it must sit down flat...you get onto a huge saddle arrangement...and when it stands back up...you are about eight feet in the air! When it walks, you sway, violently from side to side. A camel walking is one thing. A camel running, is quite another. Those things can run like a bat out of hell! There I was, reeling from side to side in the saddle, camera around my neck going to one side, me to another...clutching my tape recorder in one hand, other stuff in another...and the desert sand a blur beneath the speeding camel. Suddenly the camel driver yelled a command, and the camel stopped. I looked down at the face of the camel driver, who smiled innocently. "Gee," I said, "that was great! Real fun!" His face instantly registered puzzlement and disappointment...and I realized that this was his only way of striking back at the rich tourists and bosses over him...by having his camel scare the living daylights out of them. But I cheered him up...slipped a tip into his hand. He was horrified, and turned and looked at Abo's car which had stopped about 50 feet behind. "Don't let Abo see it," he said, and handed it back to me. Now, when I'd taken the money from my pocket, a small slip of paper had fallen out. A receipt from the Ibic Cafe. We proceeded down the rest towards the Sphinx when Abo's car pulled up alongside us. He got out and handed me the tiny paper. "You dropped this back there," he told me. How he could have spotted that, I don't know...but it revealed to me how closely Abo was watching. Before we got to the Sphinx I managed to slip the tip to the camel driver without Abo seeing it...so the kid wouldn't have to give his commission to Abo. But do you think that fooled Abo? Forget it. We were standing in front of the Sphinx when Abo said: "Did you remember to tip the camel driver?" I just grinned at him. He grinned back and said, "I see that you did. All right." And I knew that Abo would get his cut of that tip. === Page 16 of 35 Page Fifteen Incidentally, when I speak of "activating" these key spots...PyrCre tells me that in doing so...I am USING MORE POWER THAN IS KNOWN ON EARTH ANYWHERE! Also, another fascinating happening today...while climbing down inside the secret passageway of Cheops...a party of lovely German girls were coming up...and to do so they had to climb up a steel ladder at the lower part of the passageway, which I'd reached and gone down the ladder. I decided to help them up. I put my hand under the elbow of the first one and hoisted her up the ladder...BUT SHE FLEW UP AND BOUNCED OFF THE STONE WALL VIOLENTLY! She turned, up there, and gave me the most astonished look. I helped a second up...AND SHE FLEW UP AND BOUNCED OFF THE STONE WALL! I tried another...SHE FLEW UP AND BOUNCED OFF THE STONE WALL! They looked at me with astonishment and fear, then turned and hurried on up the passageway...AND I REALIZED THAT AFTER HAVING BEEN UP IN THE KING'S CHAMBER AND ACTIVATED THE GREAT PYRAMID...THAT I HAD MY STRENGTH MULTIPLIED somewhere from 20-50 times! I had barely touched the girls...lifting gently underneath their elbows...yet they'd shot upward and bounced, is the only word for it, off the stone! As if they'd been flung...by some giant with supernatural strength. This would be a good place to explain...that on these unusual trips (Paris, Scotland, England, Cairo)...I do not perform in the usual tourist manner or procedure. As you noted from the Scotland/England files...I had to bribe people to do this, do that...get over spiked gates at night into old haunted castles...hire drivers to take me out into the dark isolated countryside when nobody living there in their right mind would consider being out after ten o'clock (it is not the United States.) In Cairo...I was doing the same thing. To get my unusual chores done...I must tip, bribe, and so forth, on and on. Most tourists can cut corners and be economical about the whole thing; but I cannot. To get the results I need to get...I have to employ extraordinary measures...and extraordinary amounts of cash. But, and this is the whole point...I get results that tourists cannot get. They hire cheap guides...I hire the best guides to get me where tourists can't go. Now, I have hired Abo away from Green Valley Tourist Company, for which he usually works as a top tourist guide. I pay him more each day...than Green Valley pays him. But Abo is a real ace in the hole. He gets things done that need to get done...greased, of course, by mucho dinero. Am going in the hole back home with each of these trips...but this is the way I have to operate. It costs more, true...but I get more done this way. Got a shock today. Was sitting in the Ibis Cafe having lunch, when a man and his wife and teenage son asked to sit with me. Sure, I said. Soon he'd struck up a conversation about ESP and parapsych...so to have a little fun I pulled out a ring with a black stone, and asked him what the stone was. He examined it with a puzzled expression, then handed it back and said, "Maybe I'm crazy, but is it from the moon?" Now, the stone is black and polished. It is a tektite...and NASA scientists have stated they think that they fall from the moon...meteorites, you know. I was flabbergasted, to say the least! And told him that he was correct. Another humorous thing that happened...a man and his wife sat down nearby at a table...they had a baby in a high chair sitting all by himself over to one side of the table, crying and screaming. I called my waitress over and told her to move the baby around the table to sit beside its momma. She did, and the baby stopped crying and began cooing. The waitress came over, looked me in the eye, said "You are very intelligent." "No I'm not," I answered. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 17 of 35 Page Sixteen "I just like babies." Tonight I was bored. There is really nothing to do in Cairo. It is not as dull as London, but runs a close second. So I figured well, why not go out to that Sahara City and see the tent show all of them are talking about? So I sashayed out, got a taxi driver who named a fair price, and took off. He seemed a nice sort...had a small black mustache...was very proud of his taxi, as all the drivers are...they all have pictures of their wife and kids inside the front windshield...and all sorts of colorful decorations strung around. He was especially proud of his taxi...which was a Mercedes Benz. Well, we drove way out onto the Sahara Desert under the full moon... to this giant tent...where Egyptian bands played; jugglers juggled; belly dancers bellyed around...all the while the gawking tourists drank cold beer and had all sorts of cheeses and foods thrust at them to go with the beer. I was not impressed at all by the show. You can see a better show almost any night of the week on TV at home. We started to drive back to Cairo across the moonlit desert when the show was over. Now, the driver had asked me to sit up front with him. I'd shrugged, thinking poor fellow, he must be lonesome...so I did. Ha. We'd gone a little ways across the deserted desert...when his right hand grabbed at my groin. My left hand grabbed his right hand. He started telling me he loved me...and what he'd do to me out under the moonlight. I told him that I was queer for girls...and kept fighting his hand off. Finally I had him stop the car, and got into the back seat, and we drove silently, oh so very silently, back into Cairo, where I paid him off and went into my boat. Then I discovered that a valuable silver and amethyst fob was missing from its place on my belt...where it had been held by a keychain. Not being as slow as molasses...I figured it out. While acting "queer" he actually pickpocketed my fob! Beautiful. Probably those men who are bent that way...who would go along with him out of his cab into the desert...would get pickpocketed out of their money, wallet, even the gold in their teeth! Wow. So I learned a valuable lesson...never, but never, sit up front with the hired help! His name was Abraham...remember it, it comes up later on. Note: If I hadn't actually come to Egypt...I would not have been made privy to the discoveries that I have made. I.e., the importance of getting to the OTHER key spots...Yucatan and Peru. Thought: at Cheops, all the tourists went back down from the King's Chamber FACING FORWARD. I did not...I BACKED DOWN on the long ladders and steps...not even thinking about it. But old Cairo Nasr pointed it out to me. Like I had been there before, and knew what I was doing. Note: It has been so easy...to spot my tails...surveillance people... because they all wear dark glasses...hide behind newspapers and peek around them...hide behind draperies and peek around...etc. Sort of like a Marx Brothers comedy. I put a note on my recorder at this point: The SI's took me to Europe for brain remodification...to strengthen my brain (beef it up) for the power that I would encounter among the pyramids. A step by step process. But Millie...was the key...to getting me to the entire thing! (While George held me up, financially, at home.) Note: I have the psychic impression...that Egypt is in great danger of war... 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 18 of 35 Page Seventeen in time ahead. Note: the triangulation...me here to ScotlandX, to Egypt and back. Always...the triangle. Check map...me to Scotland and England; Egypt; back. Triangle. Or...pyramid shape. Thought: I have TWO powers to work with now...the SI's and PyrCre. Is there a THIRD power? Are the pyramids like broadcast stations? In the Cairo museum there are many carvings, etc., showing an "eye". You can also see it on a dollar bill...which shows a pyramid with an eye on it. The SI's and PyrCre explained to me what this "eye" meant to the ancient Egyptians. For ages...it has thought to be a "sign" that will ward off evil...by the Egyptian people. But...it is not. I was informed...that it meant, in reality, by the ancient High Priests of Egypt...PyrCre (the Pyramid Creature power)...which was "all seeing"...the eye which would watch and guard...the pyramids and the great knowledge and wisdom that they contain. When the top scientist (Egyptologist) in charge of all the diggings and excavations in the Giza area...came to meet me, and invited me to a personal audience in his chambers...I told him that the stone of the pyramids and treasure within (gems and gold)...were not the reality...that the power and intelligence left behind, still alive...were the great treasure...he knew it. He said, "That is true, Mr. Owens, but how many tourists would know that?" His name: Dr. Ali El-Khouli, Egyptologist, Chief Inspector, Sakkara.....31 El - Galaa St., Cairo. Tel. 79218. He was a fine man...and a tremendously intelligent man. PyrCre telepathd and told me that the pyramid openings would be found in the north...and the treasures found in the south. (Like Egypt itself...northern Egypt the "openings"...but the real treasure, wisdom and knowledge...found in the south.) I told Abo this...and he was very surprised that I knew this. (He's an old pro, remember...and grew up studying egyptology.) Zoroaster's Pyramid...the oldest, 3,800 B.C....Abo took me to it. PyrCre told me that this side is very dangerous...trapped to kill others. Long passage this end...spiral passage to the top...where a secret is. In round cylinders. Parchment. Information re magic and psi force. Also a box with gems. I passed this info on to Abo. At On Ness, this day: I found a real live scarab in the tomb. It was the sacred symbol of the Egyptians. I put it in a paper napkin to bring back. Also...found a rock with a petrified scarab in it. Ka Gemni, the High Priests temple...and King Ti Ti's Pyramid and temple...4th dynasty, 2,560 B.C. (quoting Abo's knowledge.) Went on to Cheops this day...300 feet up to the top, inside secret passageway. I was up inside the King's Chamber, arms up in the cobra (Z) position...when suddenly a guide appeared with some tourists in the chamber. Nasr had goofed, and let some get by him. Anyway, the old Egyptian guide saw what I was doing...realized instantly what it must have been...and jumped backwards a good five feet...out of sight. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 19 of 35 Page Eighteen I couldn't bring a gun to Egypt for self-protection, as is my wont... so I brought along a nunchok... a Korean karate weapon... two sticks connected with a cord... which I have practiced to use. Am carrying that in a small bag, plus a fighting knife on my hip in a holster. Next trip: Abo met me in the Ibis Cafe preparatory to leaving for the Sahara. I took one look at him and told him he'd had a fight with his wife. His eyes bulged out and he said, "How you know that?" Then for the next half hour he talked about it. At On Ness a guard came up... and presented me with a piece of alabaster from the tomb itself. Seems that I am getting to be a sort of celebrity with these people. Word has gotten around. Have noted... that each time I go into the pyramids or tombs... hours later information seems to come pouring into my mind... usually after I retire to bed. Have to get up and get it onto the recorder. Wednesday... got up in the morning and recalled a vivid dream that I'd had... seemed a warning. I'd been walking along and up came a boy I'd been a boy with... Mark Caress. He'd smiled, then pulled a gun and shot me. I pulled my gun and riddled him... then staggered home, blood pouring out of my shirt, to confront my wife... and told her I'd been shot. Strange dream. Abo met me in Ibis Cafe... and told me that Green Valley had put the squeeze on him... had found out about his moonlighting with me. He said I'd have to pay them, and not him, for his services. Well, I refused, knowing that Abo would only get about 10% of it as commission. So... that's the end of Abo's invaluable services for me. I'd have to use a taxi driver that I'd pick out. Found one... miracle of miracles... he told me that he knew me... that he'd been the clerk at El Borg Hotel that I'd bribed... he'd quit there, and now had a taxi. (Peculiar coincidence.) Picked up a news paper in the Hilton and read where Idi Amin of Uganda was getting ready to blow the guts out of two innocent Englishmen with firing squads. So I sent a wire to the British Embassy that I knew how to stop Amin. Some Egyptian words... "why not?" they like to say... is "is lay-la." Thank you... is "choke-a-ron." "Ah-wan" means you're welcome. "Massa lama" means goodbye. The thought occurred to me today: in judo... striking a man with your fist... is not an iota so destructive... as balling your fist and bringing the small point of your fist down over his heart. Can knock out a cow. (According to my old judo instructor, Johnny Osako.) This squares... with PyrCre's instructions to confine my activating activities to a relatively small area of key locations in Egypt... instead of traveling all over Egypt to do it. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 20 of 35 Page Nineteen On desert next: Achmed, my driver. While going out onto the Sahara PyrCre telepathd to change my procedure...gave me a focal point on a different wall...to project OD symbols onto wall. At Ka Gemni and TI TI...the guides and drivers are going nuts trying to understand what I am doing...they are used to tourists just taking photos, and not coming back. I am returning time after time, and not taking photos. PyrCre showed me a new spot on the wall to work on. It also instructed me not to go to Cheops today. Said that the power there was so much greater...too much. I had wondered why I was doing all my work in the daytime...out in the Sahara...until it came to me...that I was working inside dark-black secret passageways and secret rooms...about the same as on top of Castle Urquehart at midnight in Scotland. On the way back to Cairo...I saw a woman trying to carry a baby, leading another baby by the hand...with a giant basket on her head full of laundry. I told the drive to stop and pick her up and give her a ride. But...he refused to do so. A little further on...there was a priest by the side of the road. I told him to pick up the priest and give him a lift, which he did. ????? Back at the Ibis Cafe, tanking up on orange juice and milk...I discovered Vittel water from France. And ordered a batch. Then a government agent came to my table and sat down...I'd noticed him watching me yesterday at the Ibis. He told me that government people wouldn't contact me today (re Idi Amin and my wife wire) because it was a holiday. Then he did something extraordinary. He looked down at the chair beside me...upon which I had laid my nunchok wrapped in a net sack...said: "I see that you're armed for the fray." Nobody, but nobody, could have recognized that as a nunchok! Went up on deck, on the Nile-Hilton yacht that night. I was god-awful lonesome. Took a table at the rail...ordered a cold beer...and gazed out over the Nile. Suddenly PyrCre appeared. Awesome. Huge blazing eyes up close to mine...peering into mine...I had the impression that It knew, in an instant, all that I was, had been, and would be. It studied me. I telepathd was it Horus? It telepathd no. I asked, are we friends? It said yes. I asked would the pyramid power help in what I was doing (helping the human race). It said yes. Then it vanished. The thought then came to me that because of half-alien brain...I was able to see these other-dimensional creatures where other humans could not. Also the thought: after ages, this entity, PyrCre, finds a human popping up in front of it and using the old high priests' techniques of thousands of years ago...must be a shock to it...as it was to me when It popped up! 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 21 of 35 Page Twenty Wednesday night...gone to bed; saw myself sleeping and a black cloud hanging over me...the black cloud went down into my body. Then I woke up and recorded this. A warning dream? Thursday...Sayed, my driver again. An agent? (The El Borg clerk.) Today Sayed invited me to his home, in old Cairo, for coffee. He honors me! You won't see another American in old Cairo. In the Ibis Cafe...sitting with Sayed...I explain that the nunchok, which I hold up/..(this dam typewriter)....it is really a musical instrument...clavos...Spanish wood blocks that you knock together. Sayed nearly falls off his chair laughing. So HE KNOWS a nunchok! An Egyptian taxi driver? Fooey. For-git it! He's got to be an agent. Should explain more about Sayed's home...he drove me from the Hilton through "new" Cairo into "old" Cairo...the ancient section. There were no Americans or Europeans obviously present on the streets...only Egyptians and Arabs. Tiny shops and selling stalls lined the small, narrow, crooked streets that we drove through. It was a riot of color, because the "natives" wore colorful headware, scarves, dresses, etc. In front of the shops were baskets full of brightly colored scarves, mats, etc. And the streets were jammed with people, going and coming. Our taxi had to move slowly, inch forward. Finally he turned up an alley, twisted and turned through dark alleys...and came to a sort of wide parking place amidst many alleys. We got out and he took me into a tiny apartment...no doors...just open doorways and open windows. Small ducks ran loose through the apartment. A huge, fat, giant woman moved forward to meet us and he introduced her as his wife. She was dressed in a flowered dress. Soon little children came pouring through the doorway into the apartment. His kids and relatives kids...plus their relatives. His wife made us some thick, black, Egyptian coffee, which we sat and sipped. I hauled out my camera and made some family photos...(which did not come out...I figured the color film wrong with my meter.) I did coin and dish tricks for the kids...and it was a whole lot of fun. Finally we left, Sayed and I, in the Taxi, with the small square outside packed with people who came to see the "foreigner." I had the thought that I should be an Ambassador...I get along so well with foreign people (except the French...can't figure them at all.) We go on out into the Saraha Desert...to On Ness, first stop. When I get out of the car some Egyptian guides who work there come rushing up and say that "the Director" would like to see me. They lead me to a small building nearby. Inside is a heavily-built, intelligent looking man. Serious expression on his face. First, of course, after he introduces himself as the Director of all egyptology and excavation activities in the area...he suggests that we have hot coffee together. I'd been through this lots of times by now...so asked no questions...aides brought us the hot, steaming, thick black Egyptian coffee...and we sipped for a spell. The Director explained to me that he was in charge of all that was going on at present in Sakara...and offered me any help that I needed in my work. He placed himself at my disposal. Did I need to get into any of the places at night...when the places were locked to tourists? If so, he would arrange it. Would I like to see a new tomb that had just been discovered... 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 22 of 35 Page Twenty One which contained fifty thousand ibis bird mummies, among other things. I thanked him, but said no, that was not my purpose in the area. After a bit he invited me to visit him any day in his offices nearby (which I did later on.) We both left, and I finished my work at On Ness; went on to Ka Gemni; then to King Ti Ti's place. The guides by this time, of course, all knew me...knew my procedure and what I wanted done...and they would be waiting for me at each place, smiling and beaming. No tourist could go into these select places, of course... without going with these assigned, old, grizzled Egyptian guides (and guards)...but once inside they would withdraw from me, allowing me to proceed to my key place and do what I do. They would not interfere with their personal presence. After I would finish telepathing... I would leave the chamber and pick up the guide who would be waiting outside the chamber...and we would leave the pyramid or temple together, and he would padlock the doors behind us. My On Ness guide was one of the fiercest looking men you would ever see...Abdul...but he grew to like me and called me "Teddy". This day at On Ness, before I got to Abdul...in the Temple that I had to walk through...suddenly a group of six mean, tough looking Arabs appeared around me in a circle as if by magic. By now I'd been there many times, and nothing like this had occurred. I looked around at them...took out my nunchok and shoved it into my belt in the ready position...and switched on my tape recorder and put the happening on tape in pig-latin...just in case I got jumped and somebody found the recorder later. Even with the nunchok I didn't figure to be able to beat six tough Arabs carrying knives (if in fact they did...but I could see bulges under their burnooses...gowns.) (I guess you call a burnoose a gown...anyway, it's what they wear...long, flowing robe...usually dirty looking.) Inside On Ness I began to say my "triggers" out loud...but PyrCre communicated and ordered me to only do it mentally. A strange thing happened...while I was standing, arms outstretched in the "Z" position...running through the trigger mechanisms mentally...the loud buzzing of a fly interrupted the silence. This was most odd. Had never happened before. This is a sealed, locked temple. Nothing, but nothing, can get out or in. I never did spot the fly...but its loud buzzing all around me was a distraction. PyrCre has smoothed out and improved my procedural methods...but has absolutely forbidden me to reveal any of it. (Later on, on the plane homeward-bound, PyrCre appeared and okayed a verbal report only to Millie. One person. Millie, who made it all possible. Following which the airplane ahead of ours got hit by lightning and blown up... but you'll read about that later on.) On the way back to Cairo...we stopped at a small cafe' sitting beside the road...to get a cold drink...and a little Arab boy about five years old came to me and handed me a lovely flower from the garden. (I took it back and put it in a glass of water in the cabin of the yacht.) But my mind went back to Scotland...on the previous adventure...when the tiny three year old girl came up to me and handed me a lovely flower, also (which I still have, pressed into a book to keep.) 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 23 of 35 Page Twenty Two Learned two new words today (Egyptian)..........book-er-ah, tomorrow. War-da..........flower. All the writing on store fronts and all along the streets in Cairo..........is in Egyptian..........so there is no way of knowing what the heck anything is. I miss the Scotland-England midnight thrills..........with UFO's overhead. None of that here. Nothing at all..........UFO oriented. Here, it seems, I am activating, and learning. Here the challenge and excitement of the unknown..........is missing. Am especially lonely for Urquehart Castle. I predict..........that I will get back there! Sometime. Upon returning to Cairo, I found a message from Rose..........a representative of the British Embassy..........to call him. I did so, and we arranged to meet at a certain time at the Ibis Cafe..........I told him that I would wear a "purple shirt" for ident purposes. I cleaned up, then went to meet Rose..........wearing a red, candy-striped shirt. Inside Ibis Cafe I waited at a table..........suddenly a man walked inside, looked around the room, came right over to me and extended his hand..........said "I'm Rose." Then he looked me over and chuckled and said, "Purple shirt! Hah!" I didn't point out the obvious..........that he'd known me..........regardless of what shirt I wore..........so the agents that had been following me had briefed him, complete with photographs. I laughed and said yes, I'd make a lousy spy. We sat down and for about an hour I outlined my ingenious plan..........which he liked. The only rub that I could see in the plan..........lay in the fact that I was too blamed close to Amin..........and Uganda. In hours, he could have one or more killers here in Cairo after my scalp. (The plan revolved around the British contacting Amin..........and telling him that I would sic my UFO's onto him if he shot those two Enlishmen. Amin, you see, had only recently seen a UFO with his own eyes..........it was in the newspapers..........so he knew that they were a reality. And my background with UFO's was concrete solid..........I had the Saga articles with me to back it all up. Should note here: my breathing changed while telepathing triggers inside the passageways and secret rooms of the pyramids and temples. I noticed it today. Just as soon as I'd telepath to the key section of the wall..........my breathing would switch into a sort of suspended animation process. Then, as soon as I'd finished..........I'd be forced to get the heck out of there as fast as possible..........and my breathing would go back to its normal pace. Noted also today: since and including yesterday, not one but two of these tough guides..........went into Ka Gemni or Ti Ti..........with me, one in front and one behind me. I wonder why? Is it perhaps extra protection..........or is the extra one an intelligente agent? Don't smile. Egyptian intelligence agents are as thick as flies around me most of the time. (Wait until the incident on the Nile!) So many of the Egyptians are fond of saying "Why not?"..........lay-al. Friday..........Odd procedure today at On Ness. The guide won't talk..........and no special guide to meet me. So I have to find my own way..........it is quite a hike from the temple to the pyramid, and I got lost on a couple of twists and turns..........But finally found it. PyrCre gently 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 24 of 35 Page Twenty Three rebuked me today, in the midst of my telepathing...correctly, as it should have...I was inserting some personal wishes into the telepathing and PyrCre smoothed out the procedure for me. I've got it ALL...the High Priests' methods and procedures...the why and the how and the where! No other human being will ever be able to duplicate this work I am doing. Noted today that the telepathic triggering methods are NOT remaining constant. It is awesome. The methods change daily...due to PyrCre instructing me in the changes...and today I learned a chilling fact! It is because...I am being made a PART OF THE POWER ITSELF IN THE AREA! Closer and closer every day, being absorbed into the Power! At the third place today PyrCre came up close to my face and put its eyes close to my eyes...and looked deeply into me. It is GIANT. Its head is as big as a huge, round table. When those big eyes came close to my eyes...whew! Immediately after, when it vanished...I understood the difference between what I was doing here and in Scotland-England. This has nothing to do with UFO's or UFO work, as in Scotland-England. I have, in effect, been turned over, or passed on, to this Power...and the difference is psychic phenomenon in depth and in scope! I.e., in the U.S. the popular psychic experimentation is done with Zener cards...but the difference between what I am doing in Egypt and Zener card work...is the difference between Einstein's work and a game of mumbly-peg! Might just mention...that PyrCre's eyes were hypnotic...they glowed as if having a blazing fire inside...completely unlike human eyes. Poor Sayed today...we had come into a tiny village along the road in the Nile Valley...and I asked Sayed to stop for a minute for me to take a photo. It was an error. In an instant a huge crowd of people surrounded our car...thrusting their hands through the window, wanting a cigarette, money, anything. Sayed was frightened. I handed him a bunch of coins, which he threw out the window then gunned the car and burned rubber getting out of their at about fifty miles an hour. I couldn't understand why...but I reckon he had a reason. Could be, if Sayed was an Egyptian agent...which I think he was.. he had the responsibility of guarding me and keeping me safe...and it was a lovely spot for some sort of attack. But the people looked peaceful to me. Oh well... Back to the Osiris...the yacht...cleaned up and went up on deck, got a table and a cold drink, and sat down to ponder...looking out over the Nile. It was quite obvious now that the SI's had gotten me to Scotland-England in order to do a brain re-modification...beef up my mental power (because contact with PyrCre takes EVERY OUNCE of my energy and brain power). While telepathing here, in the secret passages and secret rooms...I seem to be in a different world, than the world-world...picking up techniques thousands and thousands of years old...and having to match power with power. This evening my mind and energy are run down. Am just wiped out. I rose and went to the men's room. Upon returning to the outer deck... Achmed, the waiter...had given my table to somebody else (for a bribe, no doubt...you see, these tables are hard to come by...a line waiting for them.) My beer and cigar were gone. I was furious, and stormed downstairs to write a note for Salame...owner of the yacht. I wrote that Achmed should be demoted to Chief Dish Washers. Later in the evening I bumped into Salame...who grinned and said that if I didn't 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 25 of 35 Page Twenty Four forgive the waiter Achmed then he'd have to make Achmed a dish washer. I leaned over and pointed at Salame..."Okay," I said, but remember...make him a CHIEF dish washer!" Salame broke up laughing. Later in the privacy of my stateroom, I contacted PyrCre...and asked permission to give the Direction at Sakara details of what I had learned. The answer was an angry and explosive NO! I gently pointed out to PyrCre that there was no danger...that no other humans, since they had no alien, or half-alien, brain, could activate the key places. The answer was still a definite, angry NO. So...that's it. (Later PykrCre modified this...to allow the details to be passed to Millie in person.) Friday night: scanning the newspapers, learn that one of the two Englishmen has been released by General Amin. One to go, for release... A number of times...someone has opened my door to my stateroom (which is kept locked) and has peered in, then popped out again. I finally figured it out. In Cairo it is against the law to entertain visitors in hotel rooms...and I am constantly talking into the tape recorder, then playing it back...and sounds like a bunch of people...and they keep trying to catch somebody in here with me. Ha hXa! Fun...nee! At night: had another strange dream...was with Aunt Eva, Dad, Jack, and granma...all dead. Was like real. NNext morning took a taxi over to another cafe to eat...and should mention that Cairo taxi drivers drive with suicidal abandon. Whizzing along, if another car gets in their way, they do not slow down...but jam their foot onto the accelerator and strongarm their way around either side of the car...or latch right onto the backend of the front car until it swerves to let them by. Have never seen any crazy driving like in Egypt. When you first get into thXeir taxi...all is sweetness and light. They show pictures of their family, and religious decorations all over the front of their car...then a wild light comes into their eyes...and they declare war on all the other cars in front of them! A screamingly funny thing happened at the cafe, whXure I got breakfast. This pretty waitress comes to my table and takes my order. After she walks away...there is a huge puddle of red blood next to my table where she'd been standing. (This is the sheraton.) About ten feet away there's a waitress station where the waitresses line up and wait their turn to go to tables. I flagged one over, and pointed down at the puddle of blood. She put a hand over her mouth and ran back to the station. One by one the waitresses came over, stared down at the blood...then retreated hurriedly. A rich oil sheik, curious over what was happening...rose from his table across the room, came over, stared down at the large puddle of blood...then with no change of expression walked back to his table and sat back down. A different waitress was assigned to me, who took the order...and also took me to a different table. Sayed has explained to me...that the cars and buses in Cairo are very old, most of them...one bus that we passed, for example, he said was fifty-four years old. But, he explained, they could 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 26 of 35 Page Twenty Five do this because the Egyptian and Arab mechanics in Cairo were so clever and ingenious mechanics. He said they could exchange parts and jerry-rig stuff...and keep a car or bus going practically forever. Saturday morning (still)...Sayed brought his boy, Mahmoud, along with us. He's about ten. I told him to. We stopped and got him some candy to eat on the trip out into the Sahara. At On Ness there was an American woman in the Temple...I chatted with her briefly and found out that she was from Indianapolis, Indiana...which is just a few miles from my home town, Bedford. Found the "dancing lady" on the piece of black flint. Also found a rock laying on the ground...turned it over and there's painting and etching on it...must have broken off a wall from some inner tomb. A museum piece, but I'll keep it. To Ka Gemni, Ti Ti. Went to visit "Dr. Ali" as he is called, The Director, in his offices. He ordered the hot, thick black coffee...and while we waited for it I turned on my tape recorder and pointed it out to him. His eyebrows rose and he said, "Is that turned on?" I said yes. He said harrumph. (Correction...this time he ordered hot Egyptian tea...and it was the best tea I've ever encountered, even in Scotland or England.) We had about an hour's chat...all on tape. He told me that he could tell that I was a powerful psychic...and that I certainly had knowledge not known to tourists...as we chatted along. Today, while making my "rounds" Pyrere instructed me to put the star Chamber (and pyramid containing it) around me at night, mentally, before going to sleep. Saturday night...sat on deck of the Osiris, sipping cold beer and smoking and looking out over the moonlit Nile. I was bored and homesick. Fooey. Instead of just going to bed, as I usually did at this time...I decided to walk down the dark waterfront and find the man called Hassan, who had a boat to rent to go out onto the Nile. So I left the Osiris and climbed down the steep embankment onto the edge of the river and walked along it until I came to a huge 50-foot boat. It was Hassan, who was working on the boat with another tough-looking man. Could I rent the boat for an hour? Yes. I told Hassan just him on the boat with me...not the other guy. (They were eyeing my camera and tape recorder...and if I was going to be jumped it would be by one guy, not two.) They chattered and argued in Egyptian...then Hassan said okay. I jumped on board, he fixed the sails, and the boat edged out onto the black water into the fast current. Hassan sat at the front of the boat at the tiller, guiding...guiding with his fanny...whilst he used his arms to manipulate the giant sails. He jumped off the tiller and tells me to take the tiller while he rigs the sails differently. I couldn't believe my ears! I'm sitting in the middle of the boat, back against the rail...under a bright lantern which is suspended from a skeletal ceiling...so I put my stuff down and leap to the tiller...and the boat steers like a dream! Like a Lincoln-Continental with power steering. We're now speeding down the Nile at high speed, with a full moon overhead. Across on the other side of the Nile is a nightclub 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 27 of 35 Page Twenty Six built onto a yacht...and Egyptian bellydance music is blaring out from it. It's all lit up with lanterns like a Christmas tree. Hassan starts singing and dancing in the middle of our boat...hanging onto the sail ropes. I turn on the tape recorder, because all this is really funny. Hassan is young, dark haired, tough looking. But full of mischief, like most of the other Egyptians I had met. He finally stops dancing, and we leave the music behind us on the dark water...Hassan says that this boat is the biggest boat on the Nile. I can well believe it. He says that he usually rents it to a party of fifty people (i.e., it seats fifty.) Now comes the real fun part of the whole thing. Hassan begins to swear in Egyptian...and points out onto the river. "Police" he yells at me in a low voice. I laughed hysterically. After days and days of being followed by police agents all around the place...THEY'RE EVEN TAILING ME OUT ONTO THE NILE. Sure enough, a large white launch appeared out of the darkness. There are about twenty tough-looking men on board, all on the side facing us...dressed in plain clothes, not uniforms. They stand off, about thirty feet out...and jabber at Hassan in Egyptian in rapid-fire manner. And in no-nonsense, businesslike tone of voice! Soon they swing their big boat around and vanish, moving toward the Osiris, back a ways on the shore. Hassan explains limply that he has received orders, which he does not understand, to return to shore and deposit me there. So he swings the boat around...and becomes strangely silent. But instead of going toward the Osiris...Hassan takes his boat along the other, far shore...and swings it in close to a bunch of giant, bare rocks. As it passes the rocks he yells loudly in Egyptian...and an answering yell comes from the blackness around the rocks. Evidently Hassan had someone there...waiting. Waiting...for what? Then Hassan swings the boat across the Nile toward the Osiris...and his berthing place. Finally he says something to me..."Here," he says, "I am going to let you dock it." I looked at him, dumfounded, then looked at our target area which the huge boat was swooping toward...a small, narrow area sandwiched in between two other, smaller boats. Well, I figured...if he's crazy enough to let an amateur like me try to get this speeding boat into that little space...then I'm crazy enough to try it. So I went over, got the tiller, while he handled the sails. To put our big boat in that space...moving at fast speed, now, remember...I had to figure to make an arc to the left...judge the boat's speed and distance away from the other boats...and time the move exactly right. Otherwise there was going to be the loudest smashing noise ever heard in that area of the Nile, probably. Sweat beaded on my forehead, I figured we were just at about the right angle to make the left turn...and made the arc turn. The boat sped in toward shore. I was about a hundred feet from the other boats...and the space between. "Here, Hassan" I told him, "so far so good...but let's let the expert put this boat in that space...you." I had seen that there were people in the two boats on each side of the space...and if I erred...some people were going to get wet or flattened out. Hassan grunted, came over and took the tiller and eased the boat into the space. I thought...that gives one an idea of how wild these Egyptians can be...to take a chance on me like that! Looking back on the police affair...I think that the police were warning Hassan that I was not the ordinary tourist to be taken, in any way...in short, I may have been getting some protection. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 28 of 35 Page Twenty Seven Incidentally, tonight I saw a UFO flitting up over the opposite bank of the Nile! No question that it was a UFO. Soundless...glowing light...exactly like those I saw so often every night at Loch Ness. Note: Yesterday and today both...early in the morning, as soon as I have emerged from the Osiris boat...a complete stranger has walked up to me...and asked me what my plans were for the day! I simply tell them...they say thanks, and walk away. Hah! Egyptian Intelligence, probably...or British...now that I've cut into the Amin thing. Had a comical thought...after the experience of having the police "surveil" me clear out into the middle of the Nile river at midnight. (Earlier now..."Subject Owens has gone into the old Egyptian quarter...what do we do?) In the boat on the Nile: "Subject Owens has gone out into the middle of the Nile, just before midnight. What do we do?" Ha ha ha. Can you imagine them phoning that into headquarters? Sunday morning...Abo popped up at the Isis Cafe at breakfast, and wants to have a "meet" with me tonight at six. ??? Achmed is my driver today. I notice that as we go out into the Sahara we are followed wherever we go...by a Green Valley car. Achmed suggests today that we go to the Sphinx. I haven't been there yet. I say OK. When we get there he assigns me to one of the Sphinx guides, who tells me proudly that he was in the Ten Commandments movie which was filmed there. The name of his camel is "California." (The name of the camel that I rode was "Whisky.") The old pro guide told me that no opening had ever been found in the Sphinx. I scrutinized the Spinx...there IS an opening. A clever one, yes...but there is one. (Was using my clairvoyant powers.) Also, I knew that the UFO's of that age...had had the High Priests hide THE MOST precious scrolls of secrets and wisdom...inside the head of the Sphinx...along with a box of giant diamonds, emeralds, etc. BUT...this secret room cannot be opened...except by the telepathic/PK process. Which is why it has never been unearthed. (I picked this information up with the alien half of my brain.) What the Spinx "means"...i.e., was carved in the body of a lion with a man's head...is that it stands for "high intelligence"...and that it is the MOST GUARDED OF ALL THE EGYPTIAN PYRAMIDS, TEMPLES, ETC. (By Pyramid Creature.) To make the meaning clearer...the "lion" would attack and spring on...anyone attempting to rob it of its secrets. We left here and went on to On Ness...and as I was walking through the Temple the old man came up to me and gave me the silver coin...which had THE EXACT "DANCING LADY" ON IT AS THE FIGURE ON THE PIECE OF BLACK FLINT ROCK I'D FOUND. Today I made photos of the fierce-looking Egyptian guides. Tough birds. And one could easily observe the bulge of gun or knife underneath their robes. (Note: I've mentioned picking drivers for each day to go out...but haven't told you the comical way it goes: Driver says to me, "No money. Just give me what you want. I love you...you fine man!" So I say all right...four pounds for the day. He says, "Oh no...always get eight pounds!" I say seven. He says OK. ) 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 29 of 35 Page Twenty Eight After Ka Gemni...about 20 minutes out onto the road back to Cairo...PyrCre appeared to me...and informed me that IT HAD BEEN TEACHING ME ON A SUBLIMINAL LEVEL, WHILE I HAD BEEN DOING MY "CHORES"...FOR ME TO BECOME AWARE OF AT A LATER DATE! I.e., each 20 minutes that I worked to activate the force at that key spot...PyrCre was working on ME. It told me that I had been trained and taught each place, every time.... "Welcome...mah-habiba. "I am happy"...anna-mahmut. "No good"...mis-guise: "Good"...quise. Incidentally...in this age we do have high frequency sound, or magnetic releases, or photoelectric cells...to open secret doors or vaults. But in those ancient days...the High Priests used parapsych methods to open the most secret places in the pyramids and temples...and at times they would change the frequency of their body and simply pass like an X-ray through the solid stone...the same as SI craft can do to pass through a solid mountain to the center of the mountain HQ...or through the bottom of the ocean floor deep into the earth to a secret HQ there. Sunday night...PyrCre appeared and COMMANDED me NOT to go into the desert tomorrow. It FORBADE me. Warned me that I am being stalked and hunted by the "hunters"...very dangerous Egyptians in Cairo. Met Abo at the Isis Cafe at 6, as per arrangement. He said that he just sincerely wanted to see me one more time...before I left. We spent a couple of hours talking. He said that he is very sad because I have to leave. Then he told me something fascinating. He'd come in earlier and asked Samia, the waitress, if Owens had come in yet. She asked Abo if he was "one of the secret police." He said yes. She said, "I will do as I have been instructed...when I see him enter I will call you." Abo, bless his heart...was tipping me that I was under surveillance. I laughed heartily and told him that I'd known that ever since being there. Abo finally left. For the past few days drivers, waitresses, etc., have been coming up to me and asking me to use my powers to help them. I mean...they are utter strangers to me...but the word has gotten around that I am a "famous psychic from America." Perhaps you wonder why on earth the Egyptian intelligence would place me under surveillance? Or the same in Scotland or England (as was very much the case while I was there.) Very simple. Suppose the famous Russian psychic Wolfe, I believe it is...who can hypnotize people telepathically as well as other things...came to America. And suppose that he could do what I can do...which he cannot...that is, control weather, cities, even countries...through paranormal means, and it had been widely documented. Do you think for a minute that our CIA and FBI wouldn't have agents all around him at all times? You BET they would! Tonight all the lights went out in this fabulous Hilton on the Nile. I was walking through the lobby and blam...darkness. Employees began rushing around lighting candles, etc. I went over to the Osiris boat...and blam...all the lights went out on the boat...and THEY had to get candles! 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 30 of 35 Page Twenty Nine This morning Sayed met me at the Isis Cafe...to take me out to the Saraha...but I dismissed him, because of the stern PyrCre warning, which had instructed me to keep to my stateroom on the boat. Yet... something PULLS me to go back out to the pyramids and temples. Well, finally I could stand the pull no longer...and decided to take my chances in order to get in one more "good lick" out on the Sahara, because I'm leaving tomorrow, Tuesday. I went out and canvassed the drivers outside the Hilton, asking for Sayed. BUT NONE OF THEM KNEW SAYED! Now, all these drivers know each other...spend all their spare time fraternizing together...they are like a big family. So...if they do not know Sayed...THEN SAYED MUST BE AN AGENT. A driver I'd never seen then came up to me and said "I hear that you are leaving tomorrow." I'd never laid eyes on him. Which shows you how much all these drivers, waitresses, etc., learn on the sly. Anyway, I left word for Sayed to come to the Ibis Cafe...with the head driver. I went back to the Osiris boat and was writing a letter to Salama, the owner...when I sensed a close presence...turned my head...AND A STRANGE MAN WAS ON TIPPY TOE READING THE LETTER OVER MY SHOULDER. In the newspaper today...I read that the second man, the young man... has been released by Amin also. So...mission accomplished, as far as I am concerned. No, wait...correction...the young man was the first to be released..the older man's time for execution was extended. I'm not done yet. Am down to six cigars now. Can't buy any here...they cost four dollars each here...just ordinary U.S. cigars. Went to Isis for lunch. Suddenly an expensively dressed man was brought to my table by Samia...with empty tables all around...could he sit with me? I said sure, curious, as I always am...what intelligence was up to now. I ignored the man, studiously...not even looking at him. Several times he cleared his throat...finally he started a fast conversation, pumping me for information...all key questions. How long was I staying? Where am I staying. Etc. Said that he was South Korean. He asked me my opinion of politics in Korea...I told him that North Korea would definitely take over South Korea...the country would unify, just as Viet Nam had done. I told him how weak the South Korean military commanders were...compared to the ones in the North. That they were corrupt, too...just as those in South Viet Nam had been. He didn't believe any of this. I told him that after North Korea took over the entire country, that the country would be far better off! He gave a rebuttal based on the economy of South Korea...and the ratio of three military men in South to one in the North. I argued that the North had more character and principle...and that the size of a dog in a fight doesn't determine the outcome of a fight...but the fight in the dog goes! We went around in circles for an hour. I had never previously given any thought to the future of Korea...so this was stimulating to me, to use my psychic powers to probe ahead in time re the matter. Oh, and he asked me would not the U.S. use nuclear missiles if North Korea attacked South Korea? I replied that absolutely and definitely...the U.S. would not. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 31 of 35 Page Thirty After I left the Isis, walked through the lobby of the Hilton to the men's room...when suddenly a strange man came running up to me, said "I hear that you want me!" Then he turned and ran away down the hallway. I just stood there, staring. What? Bought a newspaper and read that Sam Giancana had been murdered. That means one thing to me...Frank Sinatra will be murdered up ahead in time not too far away. He and Sam were big buddies...and confided in each other too much. So the Mob will have to "excise" Frank. At dinner in the Isis a waiter (they use boys and girls both) that I'd nicknamed "The Wart" because of his ugly manner...came over to my table and made friends with me. (We'd spent weeks scowling and frowning at each other.) Will wonders never cease. To give you an idea, a better idea...of what the meals cost there...a small bowl of soup; rolls and butter; cup of coffee; a small plate of roast beef and cauliflower; slices of tomato; bowl of strawberries...cost $8.00 tonight. This is average. That...is eight bucks American translated into Egyptian money. During the meal I brooded over Samia's being a "bird dog" for Egyptian Intelligence. Suddenly a fiendish idea occurred to me. I told my waitress to send Samia over to my table. Samia appeared. I said, "Samia, don't tell anybody...but I am a Chinese secret agent in the Chinese secret service!" She cut me off and said "I no talk" and ran off, having turned pale white (Egyptians are dusky complexioned.) Then I could hear her screaming and having hysterics back in the kitchen. All the waiters and waitresses went running back into the kitchen...then emerged, grinning over in my direction. I got out fast, sensing trouble. The thought occurred to me...that I have a bad combination...a top psychic with a "monkey" sense of humor. Que combinacion! As I swiftly exited from the Isis, I could hear all the waitresses laughing back in the cafe...and Samia was still screaming and yelling out in the kitchen. Had to have a ring re-sized...so the man in the shop called an eight year old boy over and told him to take me down into a place in the city. So the little boy led me about twelve blocks away from the Nile, into downtown Cairo...into dark streets...to a tiny shop. Inside the shop were two smaller boys...six to eight years old. I looked around for the jeweler. The two small boys took the ring and went to work. I was utterly fascinated. They used old Egyptian methods to pound and stretch the gold of the ring. These kids were real pros! On the way back to the Hilton I stopped my eight year old guide at a candy stand...and told him to pick out any candy he'd like to have. Very seriously, like an adult...he pointed out a huge lollipop to the candystand man...who gave the boy change. With real dyed-in-the-wool class...the boy handed the candyman back a big tip! It was one of the cutest things I've ever seen. Evidently, working around the Hilton and watching Americans...some of the American ways had rubbed off on this boy...and he was showing me that he knew a thing or two! Well, PyrCre had won out this day. Sayed hadn't shown...and I hadn't gotten out into the Sahara. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 32 of 35 Page Thirty One Note: In case I hadn't completely made this clear before...the Pyramids (and Stonehenge) are like TV broadcasting stations...having world-wide power. Their scope is awesome! The power that is "broadcast" can help the entire human race. By turning on Stonehenge...and now the key Egyptian pyramids and temples...it has activated the other pyramids all over the world, and alerted them...now the entire network of pyramid power in Yucatan, Peru, etc., is interested and alerted to what I am doing. For such a thing has not been done, evidently, in a long long time. Ages. And the alien half of my brain...which is sort of like "another world"...knows this. Bothersome thought...I am "out of synch" with my regular contacts back in the U.S., going around the world faster than I can fill the contacts in on the action! I had set up an arrangement with Sayed...to take me to Sahara City one more time tonight...since am leaving tomorrow...and am too bored to sit around on the boat tonight. But Sayed shows up at the Osiris, returns my five pounds...says that his wife is sick and he cannot take me. A driver came up to me at the Hilton and asked to drive for me...so I said OK. We had only gone a short distance when the driver begins to talk about my SI discs! (I'd never seen this man before...name of Alexander.) Then he begins to talk about Abraham stealing my amethyst fob. Says that HE IS A CLOSE FRIEND OF ABRAHAM. Ye gods...and here I am driving out into the night...onto the Sahara...with this guy! He mysteriously stops beside the road and sits, waiting...and I ask him what he is doing. He mumbles and looks around, as if looking for somebody...then drives off again. I had my nunchok ready, you bet! Had an impression four of his and Abraham's friends might have been ready to pull me out of the car and beat me up. It's been known to happen. At Sahara City I get a table with two Englishmen...next to a table where a rich Arab sheik sits with his family...from Saudi Arabia, it turns out...since the sheik and I spend a long time talking. He asked for a disc, so I got his address and promised to send him one. Alexander quietly drove me back to the Hilton, later. No action. Good. Next day Sayed showed up to drive me to the airport. He didn't say a word...and tears rolled down his face. I asked what was wrong. With a straight face he said that he was very sad that I was leaving. (These people actually get emotional about things like this, it seems. I know that you must be tired of reading this report...but don't quit now. The most astounding happening of all...is coming up before the report finishes! Finally, got onto the plane at the Cairo airport...and headed for home. Crossing the Atlantic...the seating was like this: sitting on the left of me was a Dr. Riffet. In the seats in front of us, on the left, was a tough specimen. Seated across the aisle...directly to my left and to the left of Dr. Riffet...was another very tough looking specimen. 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 33 of 35 Page Thirty Two I had a distinct feeling...that the two "tough specimens" were related, or connected... Dr. Riffet and I chatted extensively...and I told him who and what I was. In the course of our conversation...he mentioned sawing a leg-bone in half (related to his work as a surgeon.) I asked...would there be marrow in the leg-bone? He answered why yes, there would be. So I asked him, with a perfectly straight face..."Well, Dr., if you sawed someone's head in half...then there must be marrow in that skull bone, right?" "Well, yes," he said, "but it is a very narrow layer of bone, you know." "Right," I answered, "then that must be what you'd call 'narrow-marrow'!" I thought he'd fall out of his seat laughing. Shortly thereafter, having gone to the john, before entering to get into my seat past the doctor, I leaned over the tough specimen in front of us and said, "Pardon me...are you not a karate expert?" The man looked up at me, startled...then beamed. He dove into his pocket and took out a bunch of photos...showing him fighting at karate with various opponents. Then he actually climbed out of his seat...took a karate stance...and told me how he could kill anyone with the edge of either hand...and then proceeded to give me a lesson in slow motion of offense and defense with karate...meanwhile the doctor's eyes are popping out in disbelief. Finally I sat down...and the doctor leaned over to me and said, "You know, for a minute there I thought he was going to take you on!" "Doctor," I told him, "that man is a sissy." The doctor reared back, again with a look of disbelief. "True," I said. So he can kill someone with a blow of his hand. But...by using my techniques...I can control an entire city or country. So...who is the most powerful...him? Or me?" (He'd seen the Saga articles). He squirmed in his seat and said that he'd better take a nap. In a few moments the funny thought came to me...here is this doctor...in front of him is a deadly karate killer-type...who can wipe out someone with a swipe of either hand. On his left, across the aisle (unless I am wrong) is another, equally dangerous man (both Egyptians, by the way.) On his right am I...who claims to be able to control a city or country with my mind. Is it any wonder that the good doctor is getting nervous? Ha ha ha! I nudged the doctor and he opened his eyes. I said that I was going to wake him up every five minutes. He asked why. I said...to get even for all the times I've been the hospital and the nurses have waked me up that way. He smiled feebly and closed his eyes once more. After a bit we were served our meals. Then something frightening, to me, occurred. The doctor began arguing with me...on a deep level...that is, about rather deep, abstract subjects. A layman would not have been able to even understand him, let alone rebut him. BUT MY MIND PLAYED WITH HIS MIND LIKE AN ADULT WOULD PLAY WITH A BABY! He would make a profound, logical statement...and answers would flash into my mind like flashes of lightning...and I would take his arguments apart easily and effortlessly. (I had never had these kind of thinking processes before Egypt.) Later...PyrCre appeared in front of me...It gave me permission to tell what I had learned...in detail...to only one living person...the person who had made it possible for me to get to Egypt...Millie...and orally, not over the phone or in writing. In person, orally. It must not be passed on to other humans. I was astounded, because PyrCre had been so 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 34 of 35 Page Thirty Three adamant in Egypt...about my keeping it away from ANYONE. I note...three men on the plane...recognize their faces...same ones that kept following me all around Cairo. The tough man on the left, across the aisle...watches me all of the time. I mean, constantly. Doesn't take his eyes off of me. After the long, grinding flight...we began our approach to New York. Now, follow me closely on this. You'll never hear anything more amazing than this. The pilot talked over the mike to the passengers, "Folks, "he said, "I'm sorry, but we must turn around and fly to an alternate airfield to take on more fuel. We'll make an emergency landing in Connecticut." The plane landed at Windsor Lock, Connecticut, Hartley Airport. The stewardesses would give no explanation. This was too much for me. My legs were all cramped up from the hours and hours and hours of flying from Cairo to New York...so I slid past the doctor and went to the back of the airplane, where they had a lounge section to hang out. In this lounge were two stewardesses, relaxing...plus a tall, important looking man. He was, it seems, a producer for the movie in Russia...which has Elizabeth Taylor in it plus a lot of other big names...and the stewardesses were questioning him about Liz Taylor and the movie. He was explaining all of the snafus and troubles they'd had in making the movie. One stewardess turned to me and asked me who I was, what did I do? Like a robot...I didn't answer but returned to my seat and got the copy of Saga magazine...and returned to them...and showed them what I do. I told them that I had, on many occasions, made lightning strike selected targets. There in the Saga magazine, was a page drawing...showing a bolt of lightening striking the tail of an airplane...with my name on it. The stewardess holding the magazine...her hands began to shake. She looked up at me. "Do you do this with your mind?" she asked. "Yes," I said, "with the help of UFO's. If I think it, it can happen. That's why I have to be so careful...while in planes...and keep my mind off of all of this sort of thing. It might happen." "Oh, my god!" she exclaimed. "Do you know why we turned back from landing at New York?" "Nope," I answered, "why did we?" She shook her head. "If you don't know," she answered, "then I'm not going to tell you. Do you mind...if I take these forward and show them to the Captain in the pilot's section?" (The Saga mags.) I said sure, why not? She took them forward and closed the door to the pilot's section behind her. I sipped my drink...then returned to my seat. She finally came out...after a long interval...and returned the Sagas to me, without a word...and averted her eyes from mine. We finally landed at Kennedy...and the rain was pouring down and lightning was smashing and crackling all around. We hurried from the plane into the terminal. The tall producer passed me and yelled at me, "Did you make this storm?" I grinned and said no. Inside, I went to Customs. The Customs man looked at me, at my ticket...and said, "Were you on this flight?" I answered why, yes. He said, "You're lucky to be alive, do you know that?" I said, what? "Sure," he said, "the plane that tried to land ahead of yours was struck by lightning and it blew up!" "Oh, no," I said, "was anybody hurt?" He gave me a funny look and said, yes. I went from there to the girl clerk at 06/28/2025 15:02 === Page 35 of 35 would unhesitatingly destroy the entire United States..........the same way that they did that airplane..........if I am killed or assassinated before my time to go. Page Thirty Four National Airlines counter..........and asked her what had happened. She laid it all out for me..........and I got her complete answer on tape. A policeman near the plane while it was landing saw lightning hit its tail (just like the picture in the Saga article)..........and the airplane exploded. He ran over and picked up what people he could find (the pieces of the airplane were scattered all over the field) and put them in his car and rushed them to a hospital. Now, if you stop and think..........here was a curious circumstance. What happens on the field..........plane struck by lightning..........is exactly as shown on the page of my Saga article..........WHICH I HAD SHOWED TO THE STEWARDESS AND PILOT OF OUR PLANE! I still am in the dark about this. The way it happened..........is the exact way that I document my miracles constantly..........except in this case I didn't know what I was documenting. Were the SI's trying to tell the government something? Or PyrCre? Were they unhappy because of the toughies around me on the flight? I simply do not know. And no answer has been given to me. But one thing I do know is..........that was no accident. Back at Cape Charles..........while washing up..........I showed Beau, my boy, pictures of Horus and Anubis..........as shown in the Cairo museum. "Why, daddy," he exclaimed, "these are the very same pictures of creatures in the photograph in your book!" I said yes, that was true but that I hadn't expected him to realize it so fast and so quickly. He didn't blink an eye.........."and," he continued, "this Egyptian eye..........isn't that on a dollar bill, along with a pyramid?" I looked at him, amazed. This was out of his own mind..........he hadn't studied up on it..........hadn't had time to read it, or even look at a dollar bill. CORRECTION: I have gotten ahead of myself in my notes! A bit later on..........on my tapes..........the SI's communicated with me and said that they had set up the airplane being hit by lightning..........to let the U.S. government and authorities know just how serious my work is with the SI's..........and HOW SERIOUS THEY ARE. Then they flashed pictures into my mind..........of the work Moses did..........killing thousands of first-born Egyptian children..........to make a point. Meaning, they can kill some people, too..........although I am sure that it grieves them to do so..........but to a greater purpose..........like, perhaps, averting a nuclear war which would kill, not a relative handful of people..........but hundreds of millions. They had even controlled me..........had me DOCUMENT the lightning/plane incident..........by showing my mag to the people on the plane..........so that it would be known that I was directly connected with the incident..........with the SI's. And..........they did this also..........TO SHOCK ME. And teach me. What awesome responsibility I have now..........linked up both with UFO power and PyrCre. Also they wanted the U.S. govt. to know. Personally, I hated this incident. And the human half of me cries inside..........for those in that plane. But..........I know what the SI's mean. Hundreds of millions of humans can perish..........unless I survive and progress with my work with the SI's and PyrCre. So..........the FAA and the Fed know now, without any doubt whatsoever..........who I am..........and what I can do..........and what the SI's can do. Understand..........I had nothing to do whatsoever with that airplane explosion. It was an SI demonstration completely. In their infinite chessboard plan of things.

Rev. 7/5/82 # Jobs are vanishing all over the U.S. ## And not only in money-losing industries By THOMAS W. LIPPMAN and MARK POTTS Washington Post WASHINGTON -- At the Bumble Bee tuna cannery in San Diego, 900 people lost their jobs recently when the parent Castle & Cooke Co. surrendered to plummeting demand for the fish and closed the plant. In Louisville, 3,900 people have been laid off from General Electric Co.'s major-appliance plant since last summer. The reason: the slumping housing market has reduced demand for the refrigerators, ranges, washers, dryers and dishwashers made at the factory. More than 1,300 meat packers who worked for the John Morrell division of United Brands Inc. have been laid off this year as the company closed four plants. Two more plants are to be closed by the end of August, idling another 750 workers. These may be blips on the nationwide unemployment charts, but they are symptomatic of a pattern that appears to be occurring in many parts of the country and in many different industries: workers in profitable, stable corporations are being laid off like their counterparts in troubled or money-losing industries. The massive layoffs in housing, steel and autos and related industries such as lumber, copper and glass have gained national attention. Yet smaller but rising numbers of workers also are losing jobs in electronics, food processing, textiles, machine tools, petroleum and other industries that still generally are profitable. IN THEIR EFFORT to stay healthy, many companies are cutting back obsolete or marginal operations, dropping unprofitable divisions and reducing production and inventory. Their workers are finding that profitability gives no guarantee of job security. The pattern of layoffs is erratic. Some corporate giants such as Burlington Industries in textiles and Sherwin-Williams paints have dropped workers in some plants while adding them in others. But overall, the jobs have been disappearing, a hundred here, a thousand there, even in companies that are on solid economic ground. Many of these jobs have disappeared permanently because they are in plants that are not going to reopen even if the economy recovers. According to Bureau of Labor Statistics figures, unadjusted for seasonal variation, the number of people working in non-farm jobs in June was 301,000 higher than in May, but 1.3 million below the 92.05 million employed in June 1981. At the same time, state and local government, a traditional employment refuge in hard times, also are declining. Last year, for the first time since World War II, the total number of people holding state and local government jobs dropped -- by 276,000 -- according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. THE TREND of layoffs by profitable companies has not reached Washington, but federal, state and local government payrolls have been cut by 30,000 workers since 1980 and will fall even more as jobs are eliminated by budget cuts, reductions-in-force and deregulation of business. Corresponding reductions in jobs by government contractors and consultants have pushed the District of Columbia jobless rate to 10.6 percent -- well above the national unemployment rate of 9.5 percent -- and have produced a 6 percent jobless rate for the area. Many of the cutbacks by profitable companies are relatively small when compared with such disasters as the bankruptcy of Braniff International airlines, which threw about 8,000 people out of work overnight. But Braniff had been on the brink of insolvency for months. Similarly, International Harvester Co. has put 10,000 workers on indefinite layoff and last week said it would furlough 3,200 in Rock Island and East Moline, Ill., for two months this fall -- the third time this year many of those employees have found themselves out of work for an extended period. The company's financial situation has become so precarious that a key portion of its newly negotiated contract with the United Auto Workers requires it to give workers plenty of advance notice before closing plants temporarily or permanently. SUCH ARE THE risks for employees of money-losing companies. But now workers for healthy corporations are following them into unemployment -- or into early retirement, which many firms are offering with sweetened benefits to lure senior employees off the payroll. 3M Co., a supplier to the steel, auto and housing industries, has laid off 1,345 hourly production workers scattered among more than 100 plants. To avoid more layoffs, the company is offering 2,300 workers early retirement with six months' extra pay. Dravo Corp., a Pittsburgh-based engineering and heavy-construction firm, earned $17.3 million on revenues of $1.51 billion last year, but reported a loss in the first quarter, and its workers are feeling the consequences. Dravo has cut its work force to 7,050 from about 8,500, and "these are not people who are going to be called back," a company spokesman said. Dravo also has frozen salaries and cut capital spending, which in turn will cost somebody else work later in the year. At that perennial darling of Wall Street, Xerox Corp., whose profits last year topped $598 million, the sagging economy and intensified competition in the copier business have led to what Xerox calls a "work force resizing program." Since August, Xerox' employment has shrunk by 3,300 workers, including 500 salaried and 100 hourly employees let go in May. Voluntary retirement and the phasing out of some temporary and contracted positions accounted for much of the reduction, but many people were laid off outright. While some of the reductions are attributable to a corporate reorganization, a spokesman says "the people-cutting would be more (the result) of the economy." === Page 6 of 92 UFOs attack Economy Spokane, Wash., Thurs., Jan. 20, 1983. THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW 3 # New GNP report worst since '46 New York Times WASHINGTON -- The gross national product, the broadest measure of the nation's economy, recorded a 2.5 percent decline in the final three months of last year, the Commerce Department reported Wednesday. For the entire year, it fell 1.8 percent, the sharpest year-to-year decline since 1946. THE DEPARTMENT attributed much of the fourth-quarter decline to a drop in net exports and to manufacturers who in the face of discouraging sales slowed production and cut inventories. These declines offset rises in consumer spending and in housing. The preliminary GNP report, which is subject to revision, reflects the impact of a recession that has now run longer than any since World War II and has pushed the unemployment rate to a postwar record of 10.8 percent. In comparison to the other seven recessions since World War II, however, this one, which began in July of 1981, is so far average in the size of its overall decline, according to Commerce Department figures. Haha!! ON AN OPTIMISTIC note, Commerce Secretary Malcolm Baldrige said the recession is now ending and stated flatly that the long-awaited economic recovery will begin this quarter. Most private economists also are predicting that the recovery is about to begin. "While not all of the main economic sectors are yet signaling go," he told a news conference, "enough are picking up to indicate that this quarter will be the first quarter of recovery." Baldrige said that the administration's forecast for 1983 may be too grim and his chief economist said the GNP could rise 3 to 5 percent this quarter, which is above the official forecast of 1 percent. HE CITED THE RISE in housing starts and Detroit's decision to step up auto production because of rising sales and the relatively low level of inventories. In addition, Baldrige said, the 5 percent growth of consumer spending in the fourth quarter, the largest rise of the year, also is a signal of the spending needed to get the economy moving again. UFOs attack Economy # Reagan turns pessimistic on economy Sp. Res. 1/27/83 WASHINGTON (AP) -- In an uncommonly pessimistic outlook for 1983, the Reagan administration is predicting the slowest recovery from a recession since World War II, with unemployment sticking above 10 percent. The still-internal forecast, confirmed Thursday by administration sources, is more bearish than nearly all the major private forecasting firms and marks a complete reversal from the administration's decidedly optimistic -- but wrong -- economic predictions of the prior two years. UFOs attack Economy By LARRY YOUNG Staff writer Sp. Res. 1/27/83 ONE THING'S sure about this economy. It'll surprise you, just as it has the experts. Economists, the people paid to make predictions about the Northwest's economic health, have been fooled more than most. None of them predicted that the current slump would turn out to be the deepest and longest recession since the Great Depression. But it did. And many consumers and businessmen who trusted the experts made some wrong decisions based on their advice. And lost money. In 1981 and 1982, the Reagan administration had been ridiculed by private economists and the financial community for making rosy predictions beyond the range of reasonable expectation. This time, President Reagan's new chief economist, Martin S. Feldstein, has insisted that the administration issue an honest forecast to regain its economic credibility. The new forecast, prepared as part of the fiscal 1984 budget plan President Reagan will send Congress Jan. 31, predicts the economy -- after adjusting for inflation -- will grow at an anemic rate of only 1.4 percent on average for all of 1983, compared with 1982. By comparison, first-year recoveries from the previous seven post-war recessions typically have shown growth rates of 4 percent or more. Because economic growth is expected to be so slow, unemployment is predicted to decline only slightly from its current level, now at a 42-year high of 10.8 percent. In early 1981, the administration predicted the economy would grow 4.2 percent in 1982 and 5 percent in 1983, with unemployment averaging 7.2 percent in 1982 and 6.6 percent in 1983. As it turned out, the economy contracted by about 1.7 percent in 1982, the sharpest decline since 1947. Meanwhile, new claims for unemployment checks fell sharply during the week ending on Christmas Day, continuing a trend that private economists interpreted Thursday as signaling a peak in layoffs. But these analysts also cautioned that any genuine improvement in the nation's 10.8 percent national jobless rate will have to await a surge in rehiring. The analysts were responding to a Labor Department report showing approximately 517,000 people filed first-time claims for unemployment compensation insurance benefits in the week ending Dec. 25. The seasonally adjusted total was 27,000 fewer than the previous week.

The White House predicts better figures this year, but the Labor Department's top statistician said Friday the jobless peak may be yet to come. The overall, seasonally adjusted 10.8 percent was the same as initially reported by the Labor Department for November. But end-of-year recalculations of 1982 figures to reflect updated seasonal factors showed that November's rate actually was 10.7 percent. Without its end-of-the-year revisions in the data, the unemployment rate for December would have been 11 percent, the bureau said. The annual recalculation of monthly rates is based in part on a re-computation of the effect of seasonal variations, such as weather, the school year and buying and manufacturing trends. In raw figures, the jobless picture last month did not worsen as much as it had in three previous months. The ranks of the unemployed grew by only 130,000, compared to a 440,000 surge in the previous month. The report refers to the approximate number of employed people for both November and December as being essentially unchanged at 12 million. Before rounding, it actually was a fraction under 12 million in November and a fraction over in December. An improving employment picture in the manufacturing sector of the economy, hard hit by the recession, offset lower-than-normal hiring by retail business establishments during the Christmas holiday shopping season, the Bureau of Labor Statistics noted in its report. Nevertheless, the total number of Americans with jobs shrank slightly -- by 43,000. This was an indication that while businesses were laying off fewer people, little rehiring was taking place, analysts said. The roster of Americans officially categorized as "discouraged" (Continued on page 5) Unemployment 11.0- Percent of Work Force 10.5- *Seasonally Adjusted 10.0- 9.5- 9.0- 8.5- 8.0- J F M A M J J A S O N D 1982 Source: Dept. of Labor AP Developments Nearly one-third of the production lines at U.S. factories stood idle last month as the recession deepened, in what one economist called a "near depression." The 58.4 percent factory-use rate reported Wednesday was the worst on record. The October decline was the 13th in 15 months. And rather than getting smaller, the monthly drops have been getting larger: 0.2 percentage point in August, 0.6 point in September and now 0.8 point in October. There were new declines in two major industries: Factory use fell to 48.7 percent for automakers and to 42 percent for iron and steel producers. The latter figure was that industry's lowest since a big 1959 strike stifled output. The Commerce Department said housing starts by U.S. builders rose 1 percent in October. That was only a modest increase -- to an annual rate of 1.12 million units -- but the same report provided better news in the form of a second straight jump in building permits for future construction. Permits rose to an annual rate of 1.18 million, up 17.7 percent from September and up a full 80 percent from October of last year. (Story on page 2) Reagan says economy is in 'a hell of a mess' WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Reagan, speaking unknowingly into an open microphone, ad-libbed on Saturday that the nation's economy is in "a hell of a mess." The president was making a sound test at Camp David in advance of his weekly radio address to the nation and began reading from his prepared speech, which dealt with trade issues. "My fellow Americans, I've talked to you on a number of occasions about the economic problems and opportunities our nation faces." At that point, he ad-libbed, "And I am prepared to tell you, it's a hell of a mess." Reagan, whose sound-test quips have caused a stir before, immediately asked, "We're aren't connected to the press room yet, are we?" To the chagrin of White House aides, the comments were indeed heard in the White House press room where reporters were gathered. The president's remark, however, was not carried live on radio. Several weeks ago, Reagan called the military leaders in Poland "a bunch of no-good, lousy bums" when speaking into a telephone that he did not know was open. Before another broadcast, he said, "Welcome to Death Valley Days" -- the television show he once hosted. Because of these incidents, White House deputy press secretary Larry Speakes secured an agreement from several network bureau chiefs that Reagan's remarks during sound tests are considered to be off the record. === Page 8 of 92 anger signals UFOs attack Economy 7/28/82 Business failures hit post-Depression high in U.S. . . . . . . . . . . and soar in Common Market nations (Failure rate per 10,000 businesses) (Increase January to October, 1981 over 1980) | | | | |---|---|---| | 160 | | 50% | | 140 | | 40% | | 120 | | 30% | | 100 | | 20% | | 80 | | 10% | | 60 | | | | | 40 | | | | | 20 | | | | | Netherlands | West Germany | Britain | France | Belgium | |---|---|---|---|---| | 42% | 27% | 26% | 20% | 17% | 1920 '25 '30 '35 '40 '45 '50 '55 '60 '65 '70 '75 '80 '81 '82 Economic slumps always leave behind victims, but Dun & Bradstreet reports business failures occurring this year at an annual rate of 80 per 10,000, which makes it a post-Depression high.

The results were released by the National Conference of State Legislatures and the Urban Institute at the NCSL's annual convention here. The study said the poor fiscal shape of many states was a result of "the depressed national economy compounded by decreasing federal aid," resulting in revenue shortfalls. The survey of all 50 states found that at least 17 ended the 1982 fiscal year with a balance equal to 1 percent or less of their annual spending. In Washington state, hit hard by depressed timber and housing markets and high unemployment, the Legislature held two regular and three special sessions since January 1981 to hack and cut state spending and boost new taxes to keep the 1981-83 balanced. Cuts and new taxes and fees totaled nearly $3 billion. The budget patch also included instituting a state lottery and putting the state's sales tax back on food. And state officials aren't optimistic about what the next biennium will bring if the economy doesn't improve. The report said that although those states were operating in the black, the commonly accepted "safety zone" is a balance of 5 percent or above. Fourteen of the states surveyed had a balance of only 3 percent or less of their annual appropriations and just 12 states reported balances of more than 5 percent. Seven states reported deficits. The 12 states identified as having a balance of 5 percent or above were: Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Kansas, Louisiana, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Texas and Wyoming. All states other than Vermont are required by law to maintain or adopt a balanced state budget, but the survey revealed that seven states ended the 1982 fiscal year with deficits. Those states were Connecticut, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Ohio, Oregon, Washington and West Virginia. However, the study noted that five of those states -- all but Connecticut and West Virginia -- enact biennial budgets and have one year to correct their deficits. Spok Rev 7/30/82 UFOs attack Economy Jobless rate highest June figure on record OLYMPIA (AP) -- Washington's severe unemployment has worsened, and now stands at 12.4 percent, Employment Security Commission Norward Brooks said today. It is the highest June figure on record. The commissioner said unemployment rose from 12.1 percent in May, due primarily to thousands of youths entering the job market in June but not landing jobs. The state's unemployment rate, which has been ranking third in the nation, had been easing downward from a record high of 13 percent this spring. Behind the higher figures are 8,800 additional people who have not been able to find work, Brooks said. That brings the total number of jobless to 251,600, he said. The national average, by comparison, is 9.8 percent. A year ago, Washington's unemployment rate was 8.8 percent, so the jobless problem is almost 66 percent worse this June, Brooks said. Spokane's unemployment rate is 12.4 percent. In the Seattle-Everett area, it's 11.1 percent. Tacoma's is 12.8, Tri-Cities, 16.8, Yakima 15.5, Vancouver-Clark County 11.9, Olympia 12.4, and Bremerton 11.8.

In 27 states and the District of Columbia, unemployment rates for April were the highest since the government began compiling such figures in 1970. Unlike the national unemployment statistics, the state-by-state figures are seasonally unadjusted, and they follow the national employment report by about six weeks. Nationally, the April was 9.4 percent and moved up 9.5 percent in May. State-by-state figures for May are not yet available. COMPETITION from abroad, identified as the source of problems and ultimately, unemployment in the auto and steel industries, so has found victims in other businesses. Last week SCM Corp. announced that it will close a Smith-Corona factory near Cortland, N.Y., that produces portable electric typewriters because they no longer are competitive with typewriters imported from Japan. Company officials say they have been frustrated in attempts to win government help in a fight against what they say is the dumping of Japanese typewriters on the U.S. market. Four hundred jobs will be lost when production is moved to an SCM plant in Singapore late next year. Many companies, like 3M, are offering early retirement in an effort to avoid further layoffs, putting people out of work but technically not swelling unemployment rolls. This technique was used earlier this year by Dow Chemical Co., which reduced its U.S. work force by 1,951 employees to 37,000 when 8 percent of those eligible for early retirement accepted it. "The suggestion there is that, if those 2,000 elected the early-retirement option, they will not be replaced by a commensurate 2,000 new employees," Dow spokesman Rich Long said. [Map of the United States showing unemployment rates by state] 10.0% and over 8.0% to 9.9% 6.0% to 7.9% less than 6.0% SOURCE: Bureau of Labor Statistics MONSANTO CO., where 200 St. Louis employees have taken voluntary retirement, has reduced the number of workers in two plants in another fashion. Three hundred workers in nylon plants in Pensacola, Fla., and Greenwood, S.C., are on "work-sharing" -- in effect, splitting a job between two people. Each affected employee works two weeks, and then has two weeks off while another worker fills the job. "It's to their benefit, because they're working and collecting a salary, and it's to Monsanto's benefit because we don't have to retrain people," said Susan Kelly of Monsanto. Another nylon plant, owned by E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. Inc. in Chattanooga, Tenn., is closing completely, however, putting 500 people out of work. But Faith Wohl, speaking for the company, insists that the closing is not recession-related. "It's a recognition that the equipment we have there is no longer competitive," she says, also remarking on a world-wide glut of capacity for nylon production. Monsanto, however, acknowledges that the recession has hurt the nylon business. "You sell nylon to people who make carpets, and people who make draperies, and people who make car seats," Kelly says. "The auto and housing industries are not booming places." THE PROBLEMS in housing also have hurt GE's Louisville appliance operations, although most of the rest of the giant conglomerate's businesses are thriving. "There ain't no way if appliances are down that GE is going to be up," says Arthur Demaris, a GE spokesman. "When the housing industry is in the shape it's in, there's no way GE cannot be affected. We're hoping that there's a pent-up demand out there for housing, and that, when it turns around, it will turn around good." Demaris says GE hopes eventually to bring all 3,900 employees laid off at Louisville back to work. Other healthy companies that have dropped workers in some divisions or plants include Westinghouse Electric Corp., Ralston-Purina, Texas Instruments and Gillette Co. Bucking the trend is International Business Machines Corp. An IBM spokesman said IBM never has had any furloughs or layoffs. === Page 10 of 92 Unemployment rate hits 9.8%; number of jobs remains stable Washington Post WASHINGTON -- The unemployment rate rose to 9.8 percent last month, after hovering around 9.5 percent since April, as the severe recession continued to take its toll on jobs. The Department of Labor said the rate was the highest it has been since late 1941, when the nation was feeling the lingering effects of the Great Depression of the 1930s. Despite the sharp increase in the unemployment rate, the number of Americans at work stayed about the same, at 99.7 million. But about 360,000 individuals entered the labor force looking for jobs they could not find. As a result, the number of unemployed Americans climbed from less than 10.5 million to about 10.8 million in July, the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics said. Economy lost its spring zip By OWEN ULLMANN Associated Press WASHINGTON -- The U.S. economy, trying to struggle out of a year-long recession, expanded less than first estimated during the spring and anemic corporate profits have edged down further, the government reported Thursday. Economists said the reports confirmed the growing view among experts that the slump is at or near its bottom but a long-overdue recovery has yet to materialize. "This suggests we are in a prolonged bottoming-out process and that the worst is over," said Aillen Sinai, chief economist for Data Resources Inc. in Cambridge, Mass. "We no longer have a free-falling economy." "The numbers are consistent with the bottoming-out thesis," said Theodore Torda, a senior economist at the Commerce Department. "But there is nothing in this report that convinces me that a recovery is underway." Most forecasters, who previously predicted a recovery would be underway by spring or summer, now expect the economy to stage a slow, weak recovery by historic standards during the early or late fall. They say the recent drop in interest rates, which have choked the economy for the past year, improves the outlook for a recovery. In a revised report, the Commerce Department said inflation-adjusted gross national product -- the broadest measure of economic activity -- rose at a weak annual rate of 1.3 percent during the second quarter, but that was a big improvement from the sharp fall during the prior six months. Spokane, Wash., Wed., Jan. 26, 1983 THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW A3 Most states find income lags far behind estimates WASHINGTON (AP) -- All but three states are lagging far behind the income they expected when they wrote their budgets and 19 of them may wind up in the hole by the end of the fiscal year, the National Conference of State Legislatures said Tuesday. Another dozen states anticipate year-end balances of 1 percent or less of their annual general-fund spending. Since states, unlike the federal government, cannot print money to make up their losses, they most consider a 5 percent cushion essential to meet emergencies. Only six states in the 50-state, year-end survey expected balances of more than 5 percent by next June 30, which is the end of the fiscal year for most states. The survey, the latest of several conducted recently of state finances, is by far the most pessimistic. Only Alaska, Massachusetts and Montana reported income equaling or exceeding projections made last spring. States projecting deficits at the mid-point of the fiscal year were Washington, Idaho, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont, New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, Louisiana, Virginia, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah and California. Since most states are barred by constitutions or statutes from running deficits, shortages are expected to be made up in most of the remaining 47 through tax increases or spending reductions, the report said. Thirty-five states already have cut spending since adopting their budgets. Minnesota, Indiana, New Jersey, Mississippi and Nebraska raised taxes in special legislative sessions during the closing weeks of 1982. In some instances the fix will be largely cosmetic, however, achieved by such sleight of hand as deferring spending until after July 1, when it will fall into the next budget. The conference's report said 35 states have reduced spending for the current fiscal year below the level in their original budgets. "The reason for these cutbacks is a plague of revenue shortfalls that has afflicted nearly every state," the report said. "As the recession has persisted much longer than expected, all but three states have seen their tax revenue flow in more slowly than anticipated in their budgets." The survey found the recession-spurred fund shortage afflicting all areas of the country, including the Sun Belt and energy-rich areas considered prosperous in the past. === Page 11 of 92 the big bo OPEC news starts drop New York Times NEW YORK -- Stock prices plummeted Monday in accelerated trading triggered by news that the meeting of the Organization of Petroleum Operating Countries collapsed without reaching an agreement on production quotas and prices.

THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW Tues., Jan. 25, 1983, Sp Spokane, Wash., Fri., Jan. 7 1983. THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW 25 States to be $2 billion in red WASHINGTON (AP) -- Recession ridden state governments will end fiscal 1983 at least $2 billion in the hole because of shrinking revenue and rising costs, according to a year-end survey. The survey, released Thursday, was conducted by the National Governors' Association and National Association of State Budget Officers and was based on responses from 41 states. "While the causes of the current situation are several -- notably the recession, low inflation and reduction in federal aid -- recession is clearly the most important single factor since it tends to slash revenues while increasing pressure for additional spending," the report said. The most alarming finding was a sharp drop in state income since fiscal year budgets were written last summer. Nine states now expect large deficits by the end of the fiscal year, which is June 30 for most states. The revenue drop for the 41 states reporting was nearly $8 billion, offset only partly by spending now expected to be $4.6 billion less than estimated last spring. Because recession casts many people onto unemployment rolls and increases the need for welfare and other forms of aid, it places a drain on state treasuries at the same time the newly unemployed stop paying taxes and others hold down taxable personal spending. Most states already have imposed austerity measures or are planning them in an effort to hold down the final deficit, the report said. State revenues are now expected to rise by only 6.3 percent over fiscal 1982, well below the increases of the past 10 years. "Even as bleak as these totals are, the fiscal situation in the states may be worse than is portrayed here," the report said. "Several states, including Ohio, have not recently updated their estimates, and since revenues across the country were lower than expected in the fall, these early estimates will no doubt prove optimistic." Revised figures for the remaining nine states are expected later this month, the report said. "The recession has affected both the Frostbelt and Sunbelt with states like California and Maryland, Oklahoma and North Dakota showing big drops in ending balances from fiscal years 1982 and 1983," the report said. "Only seven states did not impose either across-the-board or selective spending cuts for fiscal years 1982 or 1983," the report said. "Of these, three states have adopted other austerity measures." Twenty-two reported they adopted permanent or temporary revenue-raising measures in fiscal 1982 or 1983. Cutting state work forces was the most popular money saving device, the study found. Thirty-three of the states imposed hiring limitations, while eighteen states laid off employees and eight others issued furloughs. The aggregate $2 billion deficit expected by the states compares with balances of $2.4 billion for fiscal 1982 and $4.8 billion for the prior year. Since nearly all states are prohibited from running deficit budgets, the losses will have to be made up by further spending cuts, higher taxes or rescue from a revived economy. Because of the inability to resort to deficit spending, states build in surpluses of about 5 percent to take care of emergencies such as the current recession. The $2 billion in red ink now expected means the states have run through any budgeted cushions and are still facing dramatic shortfalls. === Page 12 of 92 WFor attack Economy Jobless rate hits new high Skohler 11/6/82 WASHINGTON (AP).

The Labor Department's weekly unemployment claims report showed that 4,662,000 out-of-work people were drawing benefits under state-run programs, shattering the previous record set in the last week of May 1975. Although the level of jobless people receiving unemployment checks was a thousand higher than the previous high, less than half of those counted among the ranks of the unemployed were receiving such aid, figures released by the Employment and Training Administration showed. Moreover, first-time claims for unemployment benefits in the week ending Oct. 16 reached 687,000, the third highest on record. It was the tenth consecutive week that new applications for jobless checks breached the 600,000 level -- a development economists said certifies further rises in the nation's overall unemployment rate, which hit 10.1 percent of the labor force in September, the highest since 1940. On Capitol Hill, the staff of the congressional Joint Economic Committee released a job market analysis which contended that the unemployment rate would surge to 10.5 percent in October. The committee said it arrived at that conclusion based on the relationship between the total existing unemployment rate of 10.1 percent and the insured unemployment rate of 5.3 percent. "Since January 1981," a committee statement said, "there has been a very close relationship between these two measures of unemployment." It said that over a 21-month period between January 1981 and September 1982, the total overall unemployment rate predicted by this relationship has been identical with the actual rate nine times and has differed by only a fraction of a percent in the other instances. "The expectation of a significant increase in the unemployment rate this month is borne out by the extraordinarily high level of initial claims for unemployment benefits in October," the statement said. Rising unemployment, which has left 11.3 million people out of work, has heavily taxed unemployment compensation trust funds in the various states, and some have had to borrow from the federal government to continue such payments. The unemployment compensation program was enacted by Congress in 1935 during Franklin D. Roosevelt's first presidential term, as part of the Social Security Act. In the week ending Oct. 9, Thursday's report said, the number of Americans collecting unemployment insurance checks under regular state programs was 43,000 higher than the previous week and 1.5 million higher than at the same time a year ago.

President Reagan called the report a "continuing tragedy." THE 0.4 PERCENTAGE POINT jump from October's 10.4 percent jobless rate went beyond even the most pessimistic forecasts of Reagan's chief economics adviser and private analysts -- and dimmed even further prospects for a post-Christmas business recovery. The labor market, which has been in steady deterioration since the recession set in during August 1981, eroded even further last month as post-Depression unemployment highs were established across virtually the whole spectrum of the U.S. population. IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST, Montana's unemployment rate took a jump in November to an estimated 9.2 percent, state Labor Commissioner David Hunter said Friday. The figure is up nine-tenths of 1 percent from October's confirmed 8.3 percent. Idaho's jobless rate declined to 9.9 percent in November, down more than a full point from October's 11 percent figure, Employment Director Scott McDonald said Friday, but it was no indication that the economy may be recovering. He explained that the October rate was inflated by temporary layoffs in the timber industry. Washington state's unemployment in November was reported earlier in the week at 11.4 percent. Nationwide, joblessness was the highest in four decades for adult men and women, whites, teenagers, Hispanics and full-time workers. Only blacks were spared from further rises in joblessness as the unemployment rate among this group held steady at a record 20.2 percent last month. REAGAN, CONTINUING A five-nation tour of Latin America, issued a statement saying the latest unemployment report "makes it more important than ever that we press forward in our efforts to create a solid, sustained recovery." Labor Secretary Raymond Donovan said in a statement, "The continuing increase in unemployment distresses me, as it does all Americans." "As the president said, the unemployment represents a tragedy and our nation's most urgent challenge," he said. "We have made major progress in improving the economy as evidenced by declining interest rates, reduced inflation, and curtailed federal spending growth, but we must press ahead to create a solid, sustained recovery and end the hardship of unemployment." One administration official said the jump in the jobless figure caught economic planners by surprise and produced new worries about the severity of the recession. "THIS IS ONE MORE SIGN that this recession is really bad," said the official, who spoke on the condition that his name not be used. "This is terrible, worse than we thought." The figures do not shed any light, however, on whether the long-expected recovery will be postponed further, he added. Reagan's chief economist, Martin S. Feldstein, declined an invitation by the Democratic chairman of the Joint Economic Committee of Congress to testify Friday or next Monday on the jobless situation. A Feldstein spokesman, who did not want his name used, said Feldstein received less than 48 hours notice about Friday's hearing. The spokesman said Feldstein will not testify Monday because he has not yet been confirmed by the Senate and because he will be busy in meetings with Reagan, who will be just back from his Latin American trip. *Spok Rev 12/4/82* ## Unemployment rates by state (August 1982) Unemployment rates increased in 49 states and the District of Columbia between August 1981 and August 1982. The national unemployment rate, not seasonally adjusted, rose from 7.2 to 9.6 percent over the same period. Highest jobless rates were reported in Michigan (14.5 percent) and Alabama (14.2 percent), and lowest in South Dakota (4.3 percent) and North Dakota (4.7 percent). Note: Unlike the national unemployment statistics, the state-by-state figures are seasonally unadjusted. They follow the national employment report by about six weeks. Nationally, the unseasonably adjusted unemployment rate for August was 9.8 percent, for September 10.1 percent and for October 10.4 percent. *UFOs attack Economy Spok Rev 12/4/82* - [ ] 10% and over - [ ] 8.0% to 9.9% - [ ] 6.0% to 7.9% - [ ] Less than 6% © NEWS GRAPHICS 1982 === Page 15 of 92 attack economy # Output, employment, demand all down By ROBERT FURLOW Associated Press Spok Rev 12/5/82 WASHINGTON -- Seventeen months into the recession, unemployment is rising faster than ever and production is still falling. Economists are still talking about recovery, but no one seems optimistic about when it will come or how strong it will be. "I see no reason to believe the economy is turning up in December," said Donald Straszheim, vice president of Wharton Econometrics. He said the harsh new unemployment figures "will feed fears, and justifiably so. People are likely to retrench and hunker down even more in their spending behavior." Still, he said, his company "would cast a vote for a modest upturn in the first quarter" of 1983 -- growth in the real gross national product at an annual rate of 2.8 percent. INTEREST RATES, though declining, are still too high to encourage much spending, they agree. And unemployment -- already at a 42-year high of 10.8 percent -- may well top 11 percent before long. But the past five months' declines in interest rates have made it cheaper for consumers -- at least those still secure in their jobs -- to buy houses, cars, furniture and other big items. Also, the declines have given substantial relief to companies that have been forced to take out big, short-term loans to keep above water during the long recession. But without a pickup in sales, they can't tread water forever. Private economists saw danger in Friday's report that the nation's unemployment rate soared upward again in November -- reaching a level exactly one-third higher than when the recession began in July 1981. "WITH SO MANY people out of work and others afraid of losing their jobs, demand is not yet picking up," said Jerry Jasinowski, chief economist for the National Association of Manufacturers. And if Americans are afraid to let go of their money to buy companies' goods, those companies can hardly be expected to increase production or hire back laid-off workers. "With industrial production declining and interest rates still much too high, the economy is caught in a vicious cycle of declining output, declining employment and declining demand," Jasinowski said. Even before the unemployment report he had been forecasting that recovery probably would not occur until spring. Another private analyst, Allen Sinai, a vice president with Data Resources Inc., said, "There is no doubt the odds on even a mild recovery now seem greater than they looked a month ago." HIS COMPANY is forecasting national economic growth of 2.2 percent at an inflation-adjusted annual rate for the first quarter of next year, revised downward recently from a bit over 3 percent. Whichever figure is used, he said, "that's not much growth at all." "I guess it is looking more and more like March or April" before significant recovery arrives, Sinai said. And he said even modest growth is not guaranteed, since it seems to depend on even lower interest rates. And they in turn depend in part on continued easing of monetary control by the Federal Reserve Board, which may well depend on significant congressional action to lower federal budget deficits by restraining increases in military and "entitlement" programs such as Social Security. President Reagan, whose first two years in office have been dominated by the severe recession, has shown no signs of calling for any big policy changes to get the economy going again. TRAVELING IN South and Central America on Friday, Reagan issued a statement calling the new rise in unemployment "a continuing tragedy." But he also said his administration had already laid the foundation for economic recovery. "Unfortunately, unemployment has traditionally been one of the last indicators to fall, but as the recovery comes on stream, we can expect to make progress on that front too," he said. At the Commerce Department in Washington, chief economist Robert Ortner said, "I think the chances are still very good that the economy may be turning up in the near future." High interest rates blocked recovery when some signs were previously pointing upward much earlier in the year, he said. But with rates now down somewhat, there has finally been improvement in sales of houses and cars -- two areas traditionally at the forefront of recoveries from recessions. Government officials are already braced for a November decline in industrial production -- the 14th in 16 months -- but they expect better figures for the current month. Ortner conceded, "A drop in production in December might send us scurrying back once more." === Page 16 of 92 UFIs attack Economy # Double-digit unemployment grew in 1982 WASHINGTON (AP) -- Twenty-two states, up from nine a year earlier, and more than half of 210 metropolitan areas had double-digit unemployment in December, the Labor Department said Tuesday. The Bureau of Labor Statistics, basing its findings on raw labor force statistics from the 50 states and the District of Columbia, said that joblessness in Alabama, Arizona, Nevada and West Virginia soared by four percentage points or more from December 1981 to December 1982. Those figures compared with a seasonally unadjusted national unemployment rate that jumped 2.2 percentage points -- from 8.3 percent to 10.5 percent -- over the same 12 months. In issuing the monthly national overall unemployment rate based on a Census Bureau survey of 60,000 U.S. households, the government adjusts for such seasonal variations as weather and school closings. The seasonally adjusted overall jobless rate stood at 10.8 percent in December. It fell to 10.4 percent in January. The figures released for the 50 states and the nation's capital on Tuesday are based on a more complex and time-consuming information gathering process. Thus, the figures for most states and all of the metropolitan areas are for December instead of January. The report showed that between December 1981 and last December, unemployment rates rose in all states except Alaska, Delaware and Maryland. While 22 states and the District of Columbia had unadjusted unemployment rates that reached or exceeded 10 percent of their labor forces, only nine states were in double digits at the same time a year earlier. Among some 210 metropolitan areas surveyed, Johnstown, Pa., hard hit by layoffs and mill closings in the steel industry, had the highest unemployment rate, 22.7 percent. That was followed by Flint, Mich., a center of the long-battered auto industry that led the nation's list of jobless cities for months, at 22 percent; Youngstown-Warren, Ohio, 21.1 percent, and Duluth-Superior, Minn., 20.9 percent. === Page 17 of 92 Hammered by hurricane, Hawaii counts vast losses HONOLULU (P) -- A hurricane hit Hawaii with 110-mph winds during the night, causing millions of dollars in damage, killing one person and injuring 10 before it swept out to sea again Wednesday. About 6,700 people were forced into emergency shelters. Officials said Hurricane Iwa was at least three times more destructive than the last hurricane to hit the islands 23 years ago. One Navy man was killed, four sailors were hurt and at least six civilians suffered minor injuries as the storm began tearing into the northern end of the islands Tuesday night, ripping off roofs and knocking down trees and utility poles. Mayor Eduardo Malapit said he expects damage on the island of Kauai alone to total reach $15 million to $20 million, almost four times the $5 million devastation left when Hurricane Dot came through in August of 1959. Gov. George R. Ariyoshi, who flew to Kauai to tour the stricken areas, said the damage appeared to be the worst he had seen in any of the disasters during his eight years as governor. Ariyoshi, saying he was "shocked at the extent of the damage," pledged to issue a disaster proclamation to seek state and federal relief funds. Hardest hit this time were the islands of Kauai and Oahu, where hundreds of homes and businesses were damaged. On Kauai, the business district of Lihue, a city of about 4,000 people, was heavily damaged. "Lihue's business district is a shambles," said Maj. Keith Robinson, commander of the police department's patrol division. "The glass is blown out, their roofs blown off and some stores are totally collapsed. "The streets are clogged with debris and you can't drive through town because of all the downed lines." There was no word Wednesday on the fate of several hundred native Hawaiians who live off Kauai on the small, privately owned island of Niihau, which lay directly on the path of the eye of the storm. Except for emergency generators there was no electricity on Kauai where highways in many parts of the island were blocked by downed utility poles and power lines, police said. (Continued on p.2) ### Hurricane -- (Continued from page 1) "I doubt we'll have any power for quite a while," Robinson said. On Oahu, the most populous island where Honolulu is located, large areas were still without electricity Wednesday, but all roads had been cleared and most businesses were open. The Coast Guard 41-foot patrol boat sank in the high waves tossed by the storm, but their crews escaped injury. A third ran aground while towing two sailboats to safety. Navy ships put out to sea to escape the storm. Lihue, a National Guard company was called out to stand watch at several locations including a branch of the First Hawaiian Bank where the entire roof was ripped off. Robinson said there had been a few reports of looting but no arrests. Agapito Saulibio, a National Guard sergeant posted at the bank, said he lives in the town of Hanamaulu, which also was hard hit. Asked if his home had been damaged, he said, "No. Thank God, we prayed a lot last night." "I've never seen anything like it," Saulibio said. "It was a lot worse than Hurricane Dot." Sugar cane fields and crops of banana trees were flattened in many places on the island. By Wednesday afternoon, the hurricane had moved 400 miles northeast of Honolulu. # Firestorms sweep Australian coast SYDNEY, Australia (AP) -- Firestorms pushed by gale-force winds swept the parched southeast coast of Australia today and police said at least 55 people perished, many trapped in their cars or farmhouses. The victims included 12 volunteer firefighters. Bush fires raced along 500 miles of coastline in Victoria and South Australia, engulfing seven towns and encircling Adelaide, a city of 1 million people. The worst drought in the nation's history has left farm and ranchland on much of the east coast tinder dry. "We are resigned to the fact that more bodies will be recovered when we finally get inside cars which were trapped by the fires and houses where residents had nowhere to run," fire authorities said. "People are dying as they try to reach their homes," said a firefighter in Lorne, Victoria, where many of the townspeople fled to safety on the beach. "'We can't stop it... It's just like a holocaust. We don't know where to start looking' for victims. Fire authorities said the 12 firemen died Wednesday near Cockatoo, a small hamlet 30 miles from Melbourne, Australia's second largest city. Police said a family of five was incinerated in a car in South Australia, and that many of the other victims had died in their automobiles. Fire authorities said at least 1,400 homes had been burned out in Victoria and police estimated at least 100 more were destroyed in South Australia. === Page 18 of 92 New storm heading up East Coast Associated Press 2/14/83 A new storm as headed up the East Coast today, just a day after the Northeast began to dig out from a record blizzard that killed at least 67 people, closed airports and clogged streets and highways. The new storm dumped snow, sleet and ice pellets on northern Georgia and much of South Carolina Sunday and the National Weather Service said the mid-Atlantic Coast states could expect the same "even worse" today. "The storm will continue moving northeast during the night and is expected to spread another blanket of snow along the mid-Atlantic Coast by late tomorrow," the weather service said Sunday. Steve Corfidi of the Severe Storms Forecast Center in Kansas City, Mo., said the new storm was likely to spread 3 to 5 inches of snow from central Virginia to central New Jersey. "It bears some watching," Corfidi said. "It's a similar situation to the last one." Bulldozers and snowplows cleared arteries through the giant cities of the Northeast Sunday, and major airports reopened in time to get thousands of stranded travelers home for Valentine's Day. The Blizzard of '83, which dropped up to 3 feet of snow from North Carolina to New England Friday and Saturday, is blamed for the sinking of a coal ship in which 24 crewmen were killed off the Virginia coast and 43 other deaths in 11 states. In cities such as New York, Washington, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Boston, many streets remained clogged with abandoned cars and trucks that were hopelessly mired in waist-deep snow. Officials said it was unlikely all lanes would be cleared by rush hour this morning. New York City authorities had towed away hundreds of disabled cars, but others continued getting stuck Sunday. "The fools won't stay home," said Burt Alexander, a spokesman for the New York Sanitation Department, which is in charge of snow removal. Elizabeth Theopan, assistant traffic commissioner, said officials expected "major problems" this morning. The Sanitation Department issued a blanket offer to rent any dump truck, front-end loader or tow truck. Someone stole a bulldozer from a construction site in Brooklyn and was using it to clear snow until it plowed into a car trapped in a snowbank, police said. In Philadelphia, where 21 inches of snow fell, authorities also were having a problem with stuck cars. "Our problem with these abandoned vehicles was that Philadelphia is just not used to a storm (Continued on page 2) Storm (Continued from page 1) like this," said Joseph McDermott, a maintenance operations chief for the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. "I think our people are just not used to driving in this kind of storm, and it created some sort of chaotic situation." As thousands of workers and machines chewed at the mounds of snow, bitter cold Arctic air surged into the region, pushing the mercury below zero in scattered areas from Pennsylvania to Maine. It was 12 below zero in Concord, N.H., and just 1 above in Baltimore, a record for the date. On the Northeast, all major airports reopened Sunday, including Kennedy International and LaGuardia in the New York area, where about 6 to 10 inches had been stranded for 36 hours. Philadelphia International Airport reopened at 9 a.m. after being shut down 41 hours. Washington's Dulles and National airports and Boston's Logan International Airport had reopened Saturday. Officials at the Washington, D.C., Board of Trade said losses from the snowstorm in the Washington area will run into the tens of millions of dollars because stores were forced to close during the usually busy Lincoln's Birthday sales period. In New York City, where up to 22 inches of snow accumulated, 1,000 snowplows and bulldozers were manned around the clock. Officials said main arteries and most side streets would be cleared in a $2 million operation set for the start of the work week. === Page 19 of 92 Ufoe Sun Attack # Californians cleaning up and awaiting next storm S.F. Rev 1/31/81 LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Californians filled sandbags and cleaned up debris Sunday in brilliant sunshine after a series of punishing storms which killed at least 11 people and caused more than $71 million in damage. A fifth storm in nine days had been predicted late Sunday, but by afternoon forecasters said the front had weakened, leaving only a chance of light showers for northern California and clear skies in the south. "The storm we were predicting is dwindling out," National Weather Service specialist Betty Reo said. "It will probably be late Tuesday before we get any more rain, although there are still storms backed up over the Pacific." The National Football League's Super Bowl XVII was played at Pasadena's Rose Bowl under picture-postcard skies and temperatures in the 60s. However, the storm Tuesday night could be another violent blow with as much as 3 inches of rain along the coast and gale force winds to 48 mph, Weather Service forecaster Glenn Trapp said. Earlier, Trapp, lead forecast for the agency in Redwood City, had noted "We've been walloped by a storm every 30 to 36 hours since Jan. 21 ...." The weather service said problems with a faulty satellite which doesn't allow storms to be tracked during the night have resulted in uncertainty about the force of the next storm. ![A Malibu resident salvages a bottle of champagne from rubble.] A Malibu resident salvages a bottle of champagne from rubble. Preliminary figures from the state Office of Emergency Services showed 11 people killed in last week's storms, 33 homes and one business destroyed, 3,528 homes and 539 businesses damaged and more than 2,252 residents temporarily displaced. One more home declared unsafe in Malibu on Sunday brought to 15 the number of homes in that seaside community barely clinging to the beach, said Los Angeles County sheriff's Sgt. Merlin Poppleton. Four Malibu houses and the Paradise Cove pier were destroyed during the storms. The fishing pier at Pismo Beach in San Luis Obispo County was leaning but still standing Sunday, said police dispatcher Shery Lange. It was one of many damaged piers, including the well-known Santa Monica pier, which was heavily damaged. Many residents spent Sunday trying to undo some of the damage wrought by wind, rains and high tides that combined to rip apart piers, pull beach homes into the sea and flood low-lying areas. Red Cross volunteers distributed mops, brooms, scrub brushes, buckets and disinfectant in Orange County, spokeswoman Debby Buckalew said Sunday. Ufoe Sun Attack # Deadly storm sets records in Northeast S.F. Rev 2/12/83 Associated Press A blizzard dumping up to 3 feet of snow paralyzed the Northeast before moving out to sea Saturday, as police arrested looters and crews struggled to reopen airports and highways to free thousands of stranded travelers. The storm was blamed for 36 deaths, including 25 killed when a ship sank in rough seas off Virginia. "It's the worst thing I've ever seen," said Officer Frank Muller in Philadelphia, where 21.3 inches of snow broke the record of 21 set in 1909. Other Pennsylvania cities setting records were Allentown and Harrisburg, both with 24 inches. Boston got 13 inches on top of about 8 on the ground, and Mayor Kevin White called the storm "the worst to hit the city in five years." "Relax and enjoy it, make like a kid again," was the advice from New York City Mayor Ed Koch, where 17.6 inches fell, the most since 1978. Many heeded his call, but police said 14 people were arrested Saturday for looting at a hardware warehouse in the Astoria section of Queens. Up to 100 people apparently broke into the outlet and stole flashlights, batteries and other items, police said. In Baltimore, where 20 inches of snow fell, police beefed up patrols to prevent looting after 131 burglaries were reported overnight, mostly on impassable side streets. Police Commissioner Frank Battaglia said 105 arrests were made. In Washington, where 23 inches of snow made for the third-worst storm in a century, police reported scattered "smash and grab" burglaries Friday night. The storm marched up from Dixie Friday, burying Richmond, Va., in Washington and Baltimore and piling up to 3 feet in rural areas, the most snow to hit the mid-Atlantic states in more than 40 years. It blanketed every major city in the Northeast, then headed out to sea Saturday after dumping 2 feet in Rhode Island, 20 inches on Cape Cod and brushing New Hampshire and Maine with up to a foot. "One of the greatest snowstorms in New York City history," proclaimed Vito Turso, spokesman for the city Sanitation Department, which dispatched 700 snowplows to clear main streets. "It's a doozy," agreed National Weather Service forecaster Harold Gibson. The storm was accompanied by flashing lightning and thunder in some areas -- common enough in the Plains states but a rarity on the Eastern seaboard. The electrical (Continued on page 12) === Page 20 of 92 UFOs Sun Attack # Worst storm in 40 years buries East Associated Press S-R 2/12/83 The most ferocious snowstorm in more than 40 years barreled up the Eastern Seaboard on Friday, shutting down the nation's capital and locking Philadelphia and New York City in a blizzard. The storm that swept up from the Deep South moved along a path from the hills of North Carolina to New York City, packing up to 50 mph winds and dumping nearly 3 feet of snow in some areas. IT KNOCKED OUT power for thousands of homes, closed schools and busy airports, blocked highways, stranded travelers, and forced President Reagan to cancel his planned weekend trip to Camp David, Md. "This is going to rank among one of the biggest storms of all times in that region," said Ryan Tilley of the National Weather Service's Severe Storms Forecast Center in Kansas City, Mo. "It will be in the Top 10." The storm grew as it moved up the coast, and was called a blizzard by the time it hit Philadelphia, New Jersey and New York City, where all major airports were closed. NEAR-BLIZZARD conditions were reported in Washington, Baltimore and New Haven, Conn., and airports were shut there also. The storm blanketed the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia, dumping 35 inches in the town of Glengary. Electricity was cut to nearly 30,000 homes and businesses in West Virginia, 22,000 of them in the Kanawha River Valley. New York's LaGuardia Airport "was packed with snow" and "the wind was horrendous," said Greg Sullivan of New York, who had planned to fly to Greensboro, N.C. "People were standing in line to find out there planes were canceled. It was just a madhouse." IN PHILADELPHIA, police closed freeway ramps as slipping and sliding cars caused traffic jams. Most businesses closed early. "It seemed like people went to work, got their paychecks and went home," said Dave Murdock, a spokesman for the city transit agency. "I've got people all over my lobby. If I had another 500 rooms, I could fill them," said Robert Ferdiani, manager of the Best Western Philadelphia Airport Inn. "They're in pretty good spirits," he said. "They're rolling with it." Deputy director of aviation Charles Rogers said the Philadelphia airport was "very empty. It's a ghost town up there." WITH ABOUT 2 FEET of snow on the ground by late evening, the nation's capital was virtually shut down and traffic was at a standstill along several major roadways, some blocked by abandoned cars and trucks. The National Weather Service at Baltimore-Washington International Airport recorded 21 inches of snow, an inch more than the previous record set during a paralyzing storm Feb. 22, 1979. More than 500 police officers were deployed on Baltimore streets at nightfall to guard against a repetition of looting that occurred during the last great storm. More than 800 people were arrested then and businesses lost millions of dollars worth of goods to roving bands. POLICE SPOKESMAN Dennis Hill said break-ins were up, but "I wouldn't call it looting ... everything seems to be under control." About 1,400 passengers were stranded at Newark International Airport. "They have adequate areas to relax in," spokesman John Hughes said. "Some are going to find nooks and crannies and spread themselves out. The people generally have enough clothing and luggage with them. It's not as if you're just arriving at the airport with a toothbrush." SNOW FELL AS FAST as 3 inches an hour in northern Virginia and Maryland in what the weather service called the "biggest snowstorm of the year." Winds were gusting to 50 mph along the coast. "We're expecting 4-foot drifts the way it's blowing around," said Bob Curil of the National Weather Service in Harrisburg, Pa., where six tractor-trailer rigs had jackknifed. CONTINUED FROM "DEADLY STORM" 3, 1983, Spokane, Wash. S-R 2/13/83 # Storm (Continued from page 1) storm, said Bob Gager of the Weather Service, "was like a witch coming in on her broom on Christmas Eve. Nobody was expecting it." LaGuardia and Kennedy airports in New York and Logan in Boston were not expected to reopen until today. Washington's Dulles International reopened Saturday morning and National reopened in the afternoon. Richmond reopened its airport at noon Saturday, and Philadelphia hoped to by today. Newark reopened Saturday for departures only. On Saturday afternoon, an estimated 12,000 people still were stranded at Kennedy and 1,400 at the Newark airport. Hundreds of cars were abandoned on streets in New York, Philadelphia and other cities. Interstate 95, the East's main north-south artery, was littered with thousands of stalled cars and trucks through Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and into Connecticut. The highway for miles in and around New York City was jammed with vehicles that had been stopped for more than 12 hours and had accumulated snowdrifts. New Jersey state police and National Guard units brought 348 people stranded on the Garden State Parkway to an armory in East Orange. More than 600 stranded motorists took shelter Friday at Red Cross headquarters in Frederick County, Md. === Page 21 of 92 Easterners fighting storm residue Spokane, Wash., Tues., Feb. 15, 1983. THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW 3 By DAVID L. LANGFORD Associated Press Millions of Eastern city dwellers struggled back to work Monday through the residue of one of the nastiest blizzards in memory, with mounds of gray sludge blocking buses, stalling cars and delaying overcrowded commuter trains up to two hours. The death toll from the Blizzard of '83, which dumped 2 to 3 feet of snow from North Carolina to New England on Friday and Saturday, had climbed to 89, including the 24 dead and 9 missing and presumed dead in the sinking of a coal ship in rough seas 30 miles off Virginia. But the Eastern Seaboard was spared an expected second dose of snow from another storm out of Dixie. After brushing the East Coast with light snow or rain from the Carolinas to New Jersey, the storm swept out to sea below New York. In California, in the meantime, a Pacific storm churned powerful surf along the coast Sunday from San Diego to San Francisco, capsizing boats and killing at least three people. The latest East Coast storm glazed highways with snow or freezing rain in North Carolina around Greensboro and an area north of Raleigh and sent beach-eroding waves pounding into the Outer Banks, shutting down four ferry operations. But to the north it was mainly cold, with subzero readings across New York and New England, where streets in many cities remained blocked with cars stuck in snow up to the door handles. Many people complained of price-gouging by tow truck operators. The New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs said it had received 40 such calls by noon, with people complaining they had been charged as much as $100 to have their snowbound cars towed off the road. Baltimore police arrested more than 100 people for looting stores over the weekend. As another side-effect of the blizzard, the American Red Cross in Baltimore faced a "critical shortage of blood," according to Pat Owens, a spokeswoman. She said that because the Bloodmobiles were unable to operate over the weekend, an anticipated 900 units of blood were not collected. Traffic jams developed in downtown Philadelphia, where residents largely ignored a plea from Mayor William Green to use public transportation and leave their cars at home. Many Philadelphia neighborhoods remained snowbound and Green asked nonessential city personnel to take a vacation day. "It will be several days at least before the secondary streets are cleared," said Harry Zacher of Philadelphia's Division of Public Property. "We're still trying to get the primary streets cleared." Snow removal costs in eastern Pennsylvania were nearly $6 million and mounting, with the city of Philadelphia alone spending at least $2.3 million between Friday, when the storm began, and noon Monday. The Philadelphia public school system was completely closed Monday but would reopen today, said spokesman William Jones. In Washington, most suburban school districts announced Monday they would remain closed today because of snow-covered roads. Only about 35 to 45 percent of the federal employees in the Washington area showed up for work Monday, said Office of Personnel Management spokesman Patrick Korten. === Page 22 of 92 UFO Storm Attack # Boy rescued from river Associated Press Steak Rev 12/17/82 A bystander rescued an 8-year-old boy from a rain-swollen stream in western Oregon Thursday as rivers continued to rise in the wake of a fierce winter storm. Two deaths were called storm-related, thousands were left without power and a woman was severely injured when she was blown off a motel breezeway. Some storm damage was reported, mainly on the coast. Meanwhile, residents braced for another storm due to hit the state early today. Roland M. Calvo slipped and fell into Mill Creek in Turner about 8:20 a.m. Thursday. The boy was swept a third of a mile downstream. A nearby resident, 27-year-old Ken Burton, opened the door of his house at the time. "I happened to stick my head out the back door and I heard a little boy crying," said Burton, an unemployed plywood mill worker. Burton saw the boy clinging to a log, ran about 100 yards to the stream bank and jumped in. He held on to the boy until volunteer firefighters slashed through nearby brush and came to the rescue. "I thought about carrying him out but he was too scared," Burton said. The boy was treated at a nearby hospital and was released. The heavy rains Wednesday had expanded the creek's width to about 150 feet and it was about 5 1/2 feet deep, witnesses said. Several western Oregon rivers crested above flood stage Thursday, but there were no reports of damage. Thursday's rains were expected to swell them further. ## Oregon storm leaves many homes in dark Two people died in storm-related accidents. Burl P. Dalgliesh, 18, Salem, was killed when he was struck by a car as he ran from the Fairview Training Center, where he lived. Police said the driver of the car didn't see Dalgliesh because it was dark and raining heavily. The chief engineer of the freighter Jalamorari died shortly after he and 60 other crew members were taken aboard a rescue ship after the Jalamorari sank 700 miles west of Coos Bay early Wednesday. Thousands of Oregon homes and businesses were without power Wednesday night and Thursday morning as high winds knocked down utility poles and snapped transmission lines. About 600 customers of Pacific Power & Light Co. still were without electricity in Coos County Thursday afternoon. A spokesman for the utility, Gary Donnelly, said 100 workers were trying to restore electricity. Crews were brought from Medford and Roseburg to help with the repair work. Donnelly said the lights went out at about 5,000 homes in the county's rural areas Wednesday night. There were reports that wind gusts reached 100 mph on the coast Wednesday night. Deputy Karen Baker of the Coos County sheriff's office said the gusts tore the roofs off of several houses. "I have somebody's roof in my driveway right now," she said, "and with the hole I've got in my roof, I could use it." The winds and rains subsided in most areas Thursday morning as the low pressure system moved northward into British Columbia. The National Weather Service, however, said another low pressure system was developing about 800 miles off the Oregon Coast. The system was expected to bring more rain and wind to the state by late Thursday afternoon. The National Weather Service issued a travelers advisory Thursday afternoon for the Oregon Cascades and Siskiyous. The weather service said the approaching storm should drop the snowfall level to 4,500 feet with six inches of snow or more anticipated in the mountain passes. Lowry J. Collins, 56, of Seaside, was in critical condition Thursday at Portland's Emanuel Hospital after she was blown off a sixth-floor breezeway Wednesday night at the Sea and Sand Condominiums in Seaside. Gold Beach took the brunt of the Wednesday night storm in Curry County. Store windows were shattered throughout the downtown area. Strong gusts blew in three large freight doors and crumpled a section of a building supply store in Gold Beach. "We were here when it happened," said Alda Neil, mother of the store's owners. "There was just a big gust of wind and it ripped off some of the siding and three of the doors." === Page 23 of 92 Winter's first storm continues its assault By EDWARD MILLER Associated Press Winter's first big storm trudged eastward and smacked the Rockies with a blizzard Thursday, continuing an assault of wind and snow that claimed 13 lives in the West. Christmas shoppers from Montana to northern New Mexico were warned to finish their errands quickly or risk getting stranded. Avalanche warnings were posted for back-country areas. The storm battered the West Coast from California to Washington on Wednesday with hurricane-force wind and rain, and moved into the Sierra Nevada and Cascade Range with snow. It pushed eastward Thursday into Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah and Nevada. The National Weather Service said the storm would move into the Great Plains by Christmas Eve. The wind gusted to 92 mph at Mount Tamalpais north of San Francisco on Wednesday, hard enough to pitch the Golden Gate Bridge 5 feet, and the swaying landmark was closed temporarily. It was the first wind-caused closing of the bridge in 31 years. The wind tossed a 30,000-pound trailer truck on its side near Fresno and tipped over a truck full of mattresses on the Golden Gate Bridge. Two million homes and offices lost power when eight electrical transmission towers 50 miles southeast of San Francisco blew over and the Rancho Seco nuclear power plant at Sacramento shut down to prevent an overload. Disneyland went dark, rides halted and 7,700 people had to be evacuated from the amusement park in Anaheim, guided by employees carrying flashlights. It was the first evacuation in Disney-land's history. The Las Vegas strip glittered because emergency generators kept casinos going when the rest of the city went dark. San Francisco police reported more than three dozen strong-armed robberies of commuters stranded by electrified buses during the blackout. Power was restored to most customers within about 2½ hours, but more than 30,000 customers from Santa Maria to Eureka were still without electricity at midday Thursday, along with 10,000 in the Nevada mountains. Lt. Jerry Norris of the Oregon state police said motorists in the southern Cascades and the Siskiyous "won't be allowed through" without chains on their tires. Chains were also required on Wolf Creek and Red Mountain passes in the Colorado Rockies. "We'll be getting upwards of 18 inches of snow in the mountains and at least four on the eastern plains," National Weather Service forecaster Dick Elder said. "It looks good for snow on Christmas." However, the snow was "making highway travel difficult to impossible" in Colorado, he said, and the falling temperatures in the Rocky Mountain states could bring a wind-chill factor as bitter as 15 below, Elder predicted. Elder said the low-pressure system that delivered the damaging winds to the Pacific Coast had crossed the Continental Divide and into Wyoming and Utah, and was on a collision course with another low-pressure system moving into Colorado from the east. The result, he said, would be heavy snow and more powerful winds. "It would be dangerous for a person stranded in this kind of situation," he said. Durango, Colo., reported 9 inches of snow Thursday. In Utah, power was knocked out for 70 minutes in the Sugarhouse area south of Salt Lake City and most employees of Hill Air Force Base near Ogden were sent home. "Widespread areas of unstable snow exist and avalanches are certain on steep slopes and gullies above 7,000 feet," the Utah Avalanche Forecast Center said. Elsewhere, a tornado struck the eastern side of Texarkana, Ark., on Thursday, injuring at least one person, authorities said. It was the third tornado this month to hit the city. A surprise storm hit the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts and was expected to bring up to 8 inches of snow before turning to freezing rain and coating most of the state. There was scattered light snow in parts of New England, rain and a few thunderstorms in the Ohio and and Tennessee Valleys and fog and drizzle over the Great Lakes and Mississippi Valley. In California, nine people died Wednesday in weather-related accidents. Two civilian workers from Oakland died when their crane overturned on Yerba Buena Island as they were working on a Navy house. A large eucalyptus tree struck and killed a San Francisco city gardener, a Pleasant Hills parks worker was electrocuted when a live wire fell on him and a Los Angeles teen-ager died when he was hit by a power line. A blast in an avalanche control device killed four workers at the Helms hydroelectric project near Fresno. In Oregon, two people died in an auto accident Wednesday on snow-covered U.S. 20 between the cities of Bend and Sisters. Giant storm flails Northeast Associated Press A major winter storm rolled over the Northeast on Monday, plastering some areas with up to 15 inches of snow on the anniversary of the Blizzard of '78. At least two highway deaths were blamed on the Atlantic storm, one in upstate New York on Monday and one in North Carolina on Sunday. Two school buses collided on a snow-covered road near Corning, N.Y., injuring both drivers and a 6-year-old girl. And in Worcester, Mass., a 9-year-old boy suffered severe head injuries when he tried to hitch a ride on a snowplow. The storm blew in after forming Sunday near Cape Hatteras, N.C., and dumping 12 inches of snow in the mountains of North Carolina. In the West, another in a series of powerful storms moved across Northern California on Sunday and Monday, bringing rain, snow and pounding surf. Radio interference expected BOULDER, Colo. (AP) -- Radio transmission interference is expected today and Saturday due to a minor magnetic storm triggered by a solar flare, according to solar forecasters at the NOAA-Air Force Space Environment Services Center. Solar forecaster James Gordon said the magnetic storm, caused by a solar flare that occurred Thursday, should begin at 4 a.m. PST today and continue through Saturday. The magnetic storm also might cause an aurora borealis to become visible from the very northern part of the United States, he said. === Page 24 of 92 M.D. Sun Attack # Boy rescued from river Associated Press Statesman Review 12/17/82 A bystander rescued an 8-year-old boy from a rain-swollen stream in western Oregon Thursday as rivers continued to rise in the wake of a fierce winter storm. Two deaths were called storm-related, thousands were left without power and a woman was severely injured when she was blown off a motel breezeway. Some storm damage was reported, mainly on the coast. Meanwhile, residents braced for another storm due to hit the state early today. Roland M. Calvo slipped and fell into Mill Creek in Turner about 8:20 a.m. Thursday. The boy was swept a third of a mile downstream. A nearby resident, 27-year-old Ken Burton, opened the door of his house at the time. "I happened to stick my head out the back door and I heard a little boy crying," said Burton, an unemployed plywood mill worker. Burton saw the boy clinging to a log, ran about 100 yards to the stream bank and jumped in. He held on to the boy until volunteer firefighters slashed through nearby brush and came to the rescue. "I thought about carrying him out but he was too scared," Burton said. The boy was treated at a nearby hospital and was released. The heavy rains Wednesday had expanded the creek's width to about 150 feet and it was about 5 1/2 feet deep, witnesses said. Several western Oregon rivers crested above flood stage Thursday, but there were no reports of damage. Thursday's rains were expected to swell them further. ## Oregon storm leaves many homes in dark Two people died in storm-related accidents. Burl P.

(AP) -- Yellowstone National Park officials found some subtle changes in geothermal activities in the wake of a "moderate" earthquake Sunday, park officials said. But there were no major changes or damage in the earthquake, one of the most severe in the park in almost eight years, they said. "Old Faithful was not affected," park spokeswoman Joan Anselmo said. The earthquake measured 5 on the Richter scale and was centered in the Old Faithful area, according to the U.S. Geological Survey earthquake center in Golden, Colo. Yellowstone officials, however, said Monday they believed the quake only registered 4 on the Richter scale. Flooding, deep snow caused by big storm By EDWARD MILLER Associated Press Moist air from Mexico collided with the remnants of the Rocky Mountain blizzard Sunday, coating New Mexico and western Texas with more than a foot of snow and dousing Louisiana with flash floods. In northern Louisiana, makeshift snorkels were placed on the exhaust pipes of National Guard trucks and buses to keep their engines from stalling under floodwaters during evacuations. A snowstorm hit the southern half of New Mexico and western Texas and left a foot on the ground at El Paso, Texas, where many motorists "have never driven in this kind of weather. . . . This is a little heavier than usual," police dispatcher Gerald King said. Frost Belt shoppers, meanwhile, left their wool shirts and skis under the Christmas tree and started their gift returning in record warm weather. DENVER BEGAN DIGGING out from the Christmas blizzard, its worst one-day snowstorm in a century. Three deaths have been attributed to the storm. The Mississippi Valley rains came from "part of the same system" that belted Denver on Christmas Day, said Ryan Tilley of the National Weather Service in Kansas City, Mo. The system, Tilley said, "kind of stalled and there's another starting to get organized in the Gulf." Tilley said the storm was "slow to move east" and would keep the rains coming for at least another day. The National Weather Service reported several sightings of tornadoes Sunday afternoon in southwest Louisiana. Some structures were damaged, but there were no reports of injuries. THE BIGGEST PART of the Christmas storm, which left up to 4 feet of snow in Colorado, moved rapidly northeast and was exported to Canada, the Weather Service said. In advance of the storm, flash flood watches were issued for parts of southern Illinois for today and Tuesday. The area was soaked by storms late last week. In New Mexico on Sunday, there was enough left of the storm to combine with warm, moist air coming in from Mexico to bring in packed snow and slush. Las Cruces near the Mexican border received 6 inches. A little further east, central Texas got sleet and eastern Texas was hit by rain on the Gulf Coast and Louisiana border. (Continued on page 2) Storm -- (Continued from page 1) "When I woke up it was past ankle deep in my apartment. By that time everything was all soaking wet," said Scott Rainey Jr. of Alexandria, La. The floods ruined his furniture and presents under the Christmas tree, mostly clothes for his teen-age children. Rainey said he and his family had to wade to the buses used to evacuate them to the Rapides Parish Coliseum. "I'm about 5-3 and it was up past my waist," he said. Rapides Parish and eight other counties in northeastern Louisiana were put under a flash flood warning, bringing to 47 the number under a watch or warning. Louisiana has 64 parishes. Hundreds of people were evacuated from their homes as flash floods soaked Louisiana, and forecasters said 3 to 6 inches of rain was likely on Monday. "The river is up, the streams are full. There's just nowhere for the water to go," said West Monroe Mayor Dave Norris. The storm had dumped nearly 8 inches of rain on Monroe and Alexandria by Sunday. "We've already declared a local emergency," said Rapides Parish Civil Defense Director A.J. Gambordello. "We're evacuating people from subdivisions to the Coliseum. It looks like it's going to affect a few hundred people. Possibly hundreds of homes." "We're sending city buses into these stricken areas," Gambordello said. "These are diesel-type buses and snorkels are being put on their exhausts. They can get into pretty high water." More than 4 inches of rain fell in Beaumont in southeastern Texas and 5 more were expected. A flash flood and flood watch was posted for most of eastern Texas. The warm wave that brought new high temperatures across the Midwest and into the Great Lakes from Milwaukee to Buffalo on Christmas Day continued its record-breaking push into the East on Sunday. It was 66 Sunday in Rochester, N.Y., breaking the record for the date of 62 recorded in 1935, and 63 in Providence, R.I., breaking a record for the date set in 1973. Concord, N.H., normally a winter wonderland, reported a reading of 60, which broke the 1964 record of 58. Denver's overnight low from Saturday to Sunday also tied a record for cold. It was 8 below zero. === Page 26 of 92 UPDA 100X Attack More than 12 inches of rain resulted in this situation in Smithville, Mo. # Rains inundate Midwest Associated Press Spok-Rev 8/14/82 Thunderstorms swamped the Midwest with more than 15 inches of rain in places, routing hundreds of people Friday in floodwaters deep enough to cover house trailers. Three deaths were blamed on the storm. The deluge in northwest Missouri, southeast Nebraska and northeast Kansas inundated mobile homes and stalled countless cars in cities such as Kansas City, Mo., where up to 15.5 inches of rain fell in the 24 hours ending at 7 a.m. One motorist drowned in deep waters in Kansas City and another drowning was reported in Missouri. A 60-year-old Missouri man died of a heart attack while working to clear a flooded basement. "It was like a bathtub overflowing," said Lynn Determann, who fled with her husband from their home in the fashionable Country Club Plaza area of Kansas City about 3 a.m. as water poured through the windows and air conditioners of their apartment. Rain fell at the rate of 3 inches an hour in many areas, sending streams pouring out of their banks in the lower Missouri Valley. In the West, heavy rains in the mountains west of Las Vegas on Thursday night sent floodwaters 3 feet deep through streets on the south side of the gambling mecca. The National Weather Service in Nebraska anticipated the worst flooding since 1973 on the Big Nemaha River at Falls City, a community of 5,200 about 100 miles south of Omaha where 7.3 inches of rain was recorded. "We're pretty well cut off," said Bill Shock, publisher of the Falls City Journal. "I don't know if anything can get in or out." Hundreds of people were evacuated and several homes were swept from their foundations in Kansas City and surrounding towns where water was 8 to 12 feet deep over some roads. ## Floods leave 7,000 homeless RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (AP) -- Weekend flash floods left about 7,000 people homeless in two areas of Brazil, officials said Wednesday. Sudden summer storms hit the eastern state capital of Belo Horizonte on Sunday causing the Arrudas River to overflow and homes, apartment buildings and a bridge to collapse. Press reports of fatalities varied from 42 to 86 and officials said about 3,000 people were left homeless there. UPDA Sun Attack 1/6/82 === Page 27 of 92 UFOs Sun Attack # Blizzard paralyzes cities in Midwest Associated Press 12/29/82 A blizzard fanning snow into 8-foot drifts Tuesday virtually shut down Minneapolis and other major cities across the Midwest and forced thousands of travelers stuck on highways to seek refuge in churches, armories and even libraries. Flooding forced more evacuations in northern Louisiana, where 1,900 homes were under water and at least 100 roads were closed, but the sun was peeking through in places that had been deluged with up to 17 inches of rain. Some people began returning to flood-ravaged areas in northern Mississippi, but rising water downstream threatened more evacuations later in the week. Storms have been blamed for at least 27 deaths since Christmas Eve, mostly west of the Mississippi, and mostly in traffic accidents. The new snowstorm -- worst of the season to hit many cities -- spared Denver, which was mired under a 2-foot Christmas snowfall. But the latest storm spread snow ranging from half a foot to almost 2 feet deep from eastern Colorado across western Kansas, Nebraska, eastern Iowa, southeastern South Dakota, southern Minnesota, northwestern Wisconsin and northern Michigan. The lights and heat went out in thousands of homes, with the wind chill factor plunging as low as 45 degrees below zero in places and snow falling as fast as 3 inches an hour. Motorists were put up for the night in emergency shelters in many communities and motels along interstate highways were filled, with people often sleeping in the lobbies and meeting rooms. By contrast, at least 16 cities in the Midwest -- including Chicago, Milwaukee and Ann Arbor, Mich. -- posted record warm temperatures for the day Tuesday, with readings in the high 50s and 60s. ## Deadly winds rip Alaska ANCHORAGE (AP) -- At least two people were killed when winds gusting to 90 mph slammed into the Anchorage area, driving temperatures to near-record highs, flipping airplanes and cars, and snapping powerlines. The two died Monday when a three-story office building under construction collapsed at about 5 p.m. in winds estimated at between 70 mph and 90 mph. They were identified as Bill Miller, 45, and Dale Craven, 26, workers for Interstate Company Inc., general contractors on the project. Both were working on the second floor of the structure when it collapsed. A third worker, identified as 40-year-old Ed McBirney, managed to scramble out from under the tons of falling steel girders and escaped injury. The tropical weather system caused temperatures in Anchorage to soar to 45, one degree less than the record set in 1925. Anchorage Fire Department officials said in other incidents, one person was injured by flying glass when an object hit a window and another was hurt by wind-driven debris. Aircraft were reported damaged at Anchorage International Airport and Merrill Field. A small plane tied down at O'Malley Airstrip was flipped over. # Blizzard -- 12/28/82 All travel was banned in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, where 15 inches of snow fell. The forecast had been for 4 to 6 inches. The University of Minnesota closed for the first time since 1966. Drifts up to 7 feet deep clogged the streets of Sioux City, Iowa, and officials in Sioux City, S.D., recommended that people not even venture out on foot until the snow was cleared. "Tell the people to take a vacation," said Rusty Kapela, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in South Dakota, where up to 17 inches of new snow fell atop a heavy weekend accumulation. The weather service recommended no travel in 28 counties. "Unless you have a snowmobile or a pretty good four-wheel drive, you'll have a tough time." The Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport was closed and state police said all major freeways and side streets in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area were clogged with stalled cars. "We're begging people not to travel," said Bob Munger, a spokesman for the Department of Roads in Nebraska. James Meger, a Minneapolis artist, said a bus carrying his mother to Canby during the night stalled near Franklin in the west-central part of the state and residents of the town formed a convoy of pickup trucks to rescue the 30 passengers on the bus. Between 600 and 700 stranded travelers were sheltered at an armory, a community building, a church and a large tavern in Colby, Kan., as snow whipped by winds up to 40 mph closed a 250-mile stretch of Interstate 70 from Salina to the Colorado border. In Lexington, Neb., about 300 spent the night at an armory where a National Guardsmen baked rolls for them and local restaurants opened to provide other food. # world UFOs Sun Attack ## 40 killed in Brazil floods BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil (AP) -- At least 40 people were killed and an estimated 1,500 were left homeless in floods that struck this eastern state capital over the weekend, police said Monday. Thousands of residents began cleaning up and sifting through debris after flood waters receded Monday, officials said. The central train station linking Brazil's third-largest city to Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo and Brasilia resembled a lake. Water rose to the second floor of a downtown building, officials said. A three-story and a six-story apartment building collapsed. The strong rains began Sunday night and took the city's 2 million residents by surprise because the day had been sunny. 1/4/83 ## Leningrad wet MOSCOW (AP) -- Gale-force winds gusting in from the Gulf of Finland forced the Neva River over its banks, flooding parts of Leningrad, Tass reported Friday. It said there were no casualties. It was the second time the river flooded the historic Russian city since Nov. 25. === Page 28 of 92 UFOs Sun Attack # Coastal emergency declared Associated Press Washington Gov. John Spellman declared an emergency along the state's tidal shorelines Friday, opening the way for more state and possibly federal aid because of wind, rain and high tides. A series of Pacific storms are causing flooding, threatening life and destroying and damaging property, Spellman said in his declaration. The severity of destruction is beyond local government's ability to handle, he said. His declaration authorized various agencies, including the National Guard, to help people living along battered shores and beaches. The Department of Emergency Services was directed to determine if federal disaster aid is needed and the Department of Emergency Services was ordered to coordinate state help. None too soon, as far as Whatcom County was concerned. County Executive John Louws had asked Spellman for a state of emergency declaration Friday, saying tides and winds battered coastal areas. ## None too soon for storm-battered Whatcom County Jan Leonardo, Whatcom County emergency services director, estimated there was up to $1 million in damage to roads alone and that about 150 homes were damaged. The storm struck hardest at small communities such as Birch Bay, Sandy Point, Point Roberts and Gooseberry Point. On Camano Island north of Everett, at least eight homes were evacuated. About 40 homes at Juniper beach were flooded when a dike broke. The storm was at its height Thursday and diminished Friday. But winds were expected to hit the coast at 25 to 40 knots today and gale warnings were posted. Seas were expected to run 16 to 22 feet. Adding to the threat were tides one to three feet above published levels. On inland waters, winds were expected to continue gusting to more than 25 mph. The storm left a 5-year-old Joyce boy dead, knocked down trees and swamped waterside homes. At one point, an estimated 100,000 electricity customers were without power. The child, Wyatt Thompson, slipped and fell into rain-swollen Joyce, just west of Port Angeles, and two companions were unable to pull him from the water. His body was found about two hours later near a bridge. Spellman's declaration was the second in two days. UFOs Sun Attack # Coast braces for new storm Associated Press Already buffeted by days of high winds and heavy rain, the Washington coast braced for 40-60 mph winds from a new storm Saturday as the National Weather Service forecast severe coastal flooding in many areas. The storm which rolled into Western Washington late Wednesday has claimed one life and caused millions of dollars worth of damage, officials reported. Along the ocean coast and inland waters, gale-force winds lifted high tides over breakwaters into backyards and basements. More than $3 million in property damage was reported near the Canadian border in Whatcom County and at least 444 homes and 30 condominiums were damaged on Camano and Whidbey islands in Island County near Everett, said Larry Voshall, state Department of Emergency Services assistant director. Gov. John Spellman declared a state of emergency for Western Washington Friday in the wake of the "storm of the storm." The declaration makes state personnel and equipment available to local jurisdictions unable to cope with the storm. Spellman first declared an emergency only for areas of damaging high tides, which included Whatcom, Island and Kitsap counties, where homes and businesses near exposed shores were battered. Then he expanded the declaration. A 5-year-old boy drowned Thursday in an overflowing creek in Joyce on the northern Olympic Peninsula. No other deaths or serious injuries were reported. Volunteers and residents of Camano Island hefted sand bags Saturday to reinforce a dike that threatened to collapse. National Guard helicopters, which helped supply sand bags Friday, stayed on the ground Saturday because of high winds, said Voshall. Homes damaged on Camano Island ranged in value from $40,000 to more than $200,000, said George Simons, Island County director of emergency services. A break in the dike threatened to damage about 40 homes which already... UFOs Sun Attack # As Kansans shovel, tornadoes hit Texas Associated Press A winter storm piled up nearly a foot of snow in parts of Kansas on Monday, and thunderstorms brought rain, fog, hail and at least two tornadoes to southeast Texas. Several injuries were reported from the Texas tornadoes. And the death of a 23-year-old man in a two-car pileup in Halfmoon, N.Y., was blamed on a storm that began Sunday night and continued Monday, bringing up to 3 inches of snow and rain in some areas. Snow also fell in parts of New England, the Midwest -- up to 7 inches closed schools in St. Joseph, Mo. -- and Colorado, where a rash of minor traffic accidents was reported in the Denver suburbs. Four inches of snow was reported in Las Vegas, N.M., and 3 inches in Albuquerque and Clayton. The National Severe Storms Forecast Center in Kansas City, Mo., issued a tornado watch Monday for parts of eastern Texas and coastal waters 70 miles east and west of a line from 40 miles northeast of Waco to 30 miles southeast of Palacios. At about 2 p.m. Monday, a twister ripped through a 100-unit apartment complex in Beaumont, to the east of the tornado watch area, causing extensive damage and an undetermined number of injuries. In Sealy, some 40 miles west of Houston, a tornado struck at about 10 a.m. Monday, demolishing one house and injuring an elderly woman. California got a continued respite from last week's bruising rain and wind. === Page 29 of 92 # 17 hurt in sudden Texas storm UFO Sun Attack PORT ISABEL, Texas (AP) -- An unexpected, hurricane-force storm thrashed this Texas coastal community early Wednesday, injuring at least 17 people and leaving some people homeless. "We were totally unprepared because no one had issued a warning," said South Padre Island Mayor Minnie Solomonson. "It was just a freak." U.S. Coast Guard Chief Bill Barts, in charge of the Port Isabel station, said the storm, which struck about 11 p.m. (PST) Tuesday, also surprised the Coast Guard with its intensity. "That's when the bottom fell out," he said. Barts said the National Weather Service forecast the Coast Guard received Tuesday called for southeast winds at 17 to 23 mph shifting to northerly 23 to 34 mph as a weather front came through. "That's a piece of cake down here. But we didn't know it was going to be as bad as it was," he said. Winds clocked at 84 mph at Port Isabel and 81 mph on Padre Island uprooted palm and mesquite trees, downed power lines, ripped roofs from homes and caused some flooding. Five people were hospitalized and at least 12 others had less serious injuries. Some debris-filled streets in Port Isabel were impassable and about 14 mobile homes in one park were thrown into a canal. At least 18 airplanes at area airports were also damaged. About two dozen families from the two communities were homeless Wednesday night, and others from a severely damaged camper park nearby also were seeking shelter, according to Nita Flewelling of the Red Cross' Brownsville Chapter. Late Wednesday, 25 percent of Port Isabel's residents still were without electricity. A Cameron County sheriff's spokesman said authorities found no signs of campers reported missing after the storm and now believe the campers left the area safely. Sheila S. Kilgore, who was staying in a South Padre Island hotel on her first business trip to Texas, said she was awakened in the middle of the night by what "sounded like a woman's scream" as the wind wailed through her balcony door. Then the hotel began to shake and the lights went out, she said. "I thought the building was just going to come crashing down," she said. "Now that I look back on it, it seems kind of funny." Ms. Kilgore, of St. Louis, Mo., said she selected an island hotel while in the area on business because "everybody told me Padre Island was a nice place to stay." After the storm, she moved to a hotel in Harlingen about 40 miles inland. Three women and one man were admitted to Valley Community Hospital in Brownsville, according to supervisor Valerie Bateman. The woman, who suffered a shoulder injury, was listed in stable condition while the men, with back injuries, were in guarded condition, Mrs. Bateman said. One man was admitted to Valley Baptist Medical Center with broken ribs. He was listed in fair condition, said supervisor Paula Cruz. Twelve people were treated and released from the two hospitals. A Coast Guard helicopter crew flew over the area Wednesday to assess damage and look for injured people, Barts said. Damage to Port Isabel alone was estimated at more than $1 million, said Mayor Quirino Martinez. The National Weather Service in Brownsville said the storm was triggered by an unusually strong early season cold front that collided with warm, unstable tropical air over southern Texas. A series of strong downbursts -- capable of producing winds up to 150 mph and inflicting damage similar to a tornado -- rushed to the ground from the high storm clouds, said spokesman Don Ocker. Strong north winds at 20 to 30 mph were predicted in the area Wednesday night, but no more damaging wind was expected, he said. UFO Sun Attack S.P.R.N 12/29/82 Spokane, Wash., Wed # Hansville braces for another round of floods HANSVILLE, Wash. (AP) -- Whatever damage recent storms did in other parts of Western Washington, Hansville probably had it worse. "The Corps of Engineers told the fire chief here that we had it worse than Camano (Island)," said resident Don Anson. "Yet Camano got all the attention." The Dec. 16 storm that battered Hansville, flooding homes and sending armies of sandbaggers to bolster dikes -- also gave the Hansville area of Kitsap County its worst storm beating in recent memory. Ten-foot waves crashing against bulkheads routed some Skunk Bay residents from their homes, and most of Hansville was under two to three feet of water for several days last week. Now, Hansville residents are preparing for another bout with high tides within the next few days. Sandbag crews of local residents, public officials and Navy volunteers have been active throughout the area. "It was a weird sort of blow," Anderson said of the previous storm. Sand apparently washed over bulkheads in some areas, then pulled them down with undercurrent pressure, he said. At one waterfront cafe, which extended over the water on pilings, waves pounding on a seawall rammed huge rocks and chunks of wood up through the floor. "It looked like a boatload of hell-raising sea monsters had come in and torn everything apart," said Al Zachary, who was helping salvage equipment and materials from the cafe. A soda fountain was ripped apart and a bar was pushed around the main floor. A tide of 13½ feet, more than a foot higher than on Dec. 16, is expected New Year's Day. Maybe higher, if atmospheric pressure drops. "Everyone here is keeping an eye on their barometers," said Anderson. === Page 30 of 92 Die Sun Attack # Lightning knocks out power in California Associated Press SP Rev 11/10/82 A violent storm struck southern California on Tuesday, ripping up hundreds of trees, dumping up to two feet of hailstones and generating lightning that caused blackouts. Electrical power was briefly knocked out to the entire town of Santa Barbara when lines were struck by lightning and several homes in Malibu were flooded when two feet of small hailstones clogged storm drains. A giant FedCo department store in Van Nuys was flooded by rain when high wind blew away most of the roof, authorities said. A small tornado was reported in the Lennox area of Los Angeles County near Los Angeles International Airport and Long Beach, and at least one buzzed suburban Long Beach. The National Weather Service issued tornado watches from Ontario in San Bernardino County 25 miles south to Campo, just along the Mexican border in inland San Diego County. Firefighters and volunteers built sandbag barriers around homes, and county flood control spokesman Bill Hardie mapped evacuation plans for the Malibu area. By nightfall, however, the danger had passed. In Garden Grove, roofs on three homes were completely ripped off the wind and windows in two elementary schools were shattered as children dived for cover beneath their desks. Two student nurses were slashed by flying glass as they shielded patients from a breaking window at Panorama Community Hospital in the wind-whipped San Fernando Valley. UFO Sun Attack # Storms leave 20 dead in Europe Spok Rev 11/10/82 TOULOUSE, France (AP) -- The death toll after four days of storms in southern Europe rose to 20 Tuesday, and there were unconfirmed reports of many cars and passengers swept away by floods in the isolated little principality of Andorra, high in the Pyrenees Mountains between France and Spain. The storm that began Saturday in southwestern France pounded northern and central Italy, killing three people in the Genoa area. Three deaths were confirmed in Andorra, and two men injured as a result of the storm died in Bordeaux, bringing the total dead in southwestern France to 14. Villages outside Andorra la Vella, the capital of Andorra, were reported cut off, and French officials said they were told the Andorra rescue headquarters had no news of some 200 people. The principality and its 37,000 people were cut off by floods and landslides the storm sent roaring down the Pyrenees. Helicopters shuttling in French and Spanish rescue workers and bringing out the wounded and stranded foreigners provided the only communication. Andorra is supplied from Spain and France. With the roads blocked, people flown out Tuesday said bread was rationed one loaf per person and supermarkets were shut to prevent pillaging. They reported at least one supermarket destroyed by the overflow of the river that runs the length of Andorra la Vella. A tide of mud from the river forced its way into the ground floors of houses and shops throughout the town, they said. The arrivals reported that a curfew was imposed from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., apparently to prevent looting of the town's hundreds of duty-free stores packed with alcoholic beverages, electronic goods and other luxuries. In Italy, the torrential rains swelled rivers and streams in Tuscany and Liguria. Snow fell above 3,000 feet for the second day in the Dolomite Mountains and closed the Stelvio, Rombo, Pennes and Stalle passes. But highway police said traffic moved normally through the Brenner Pass linking Austria and Italy. A railroad bridge collapsed near Parma, cutting the Bologna-Milan line. Traffic had been halted hours before as a precaution. UFOs Sun Attack # Warm spell trims those electric bills SP Rev 1/14/83 There's a bonus in Spokane's warm January weather -- a savings in both energy and money. Temperatures and the use of electricity parallel each other, Washington Water Power Co. spokesman Stan Witter said. With warm temperatures keeping the electrical consumption down, it saves both energy and consumer dollars. Thursday's high temperature of 45 broke the three-day run of record high temperatures, but above-normal temperatures are expected to continue, with a high today near 40. Record highs from 49 to 53 degrees were recorded Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday in Spokane, the first three straight record highs recorded during January since 1881, when weather service records began here, said Kenneth Holmes of the National Weather Service. Coeur d'Alene's temperatures were comparable. On Tuesday, the Lake City beat Spokane by one degree, posting a high temperature of 53. Temperatures have ranged 10-15 degrees above normal since Jan. 5. "I can't remember a January like this," Witter said. Loads last week were down 27 percent from the January estimate, he added, and with three record high temperatures this week, it will be much lower again. The 8-9 a.m. usage Thursday was 1,091 megawatts, far less than the normal 1,400 figure, he said. The estimated peak usage for a one-hour period this month was 1,597 megawatts and its unlikely we'll reach that usage, Witter added. The all-time, one-hour record for January was 1,614 megawatts Jan. 29, 1980, Witter said. There's been a substantial saving in natural gas also, but the weather can't take all the credit. The savings was produced by a three-way combination of economic conditions, conservation and the weather. UFOs Sun Attack Sp Rev 1/14/83 # Power failure strands skiers on lifts RENO, Nev. (AP) -- A power failure swept across much of northwestern Nevada on Thursday, leaving skiers dangling on ski lifts in the Sierra and snarling traffic in Reno and Carson City. Mike Reed of Sierra Pacific Power Co. said an electrical disturbance of an unknown nature caused two 345,000-volt lines between Reno and the Valmy power plant in northern Humboldt County to fail shortly before 10:30 a.m. That caused a domino effect that knocked out the Fort Churchill power plant near Fallon, he said. Sierra Pacific serves 175,000 customers in Nevada and eastern California. Reed said the outage affected about 40 to 50 percent of the utility's power supplies. Power was restored to most areas within three hours. The electrical failure knocked out traffic signals in Reno and Carson City. The outage also stranded skiers on lifts at Mount Rose and Slide Mountain ski areas between Reno and Carson City. About 50 skiers were left dangling on the lift at Mount Rose when the power failed === Page 31 of 92 Spokane, Wash., Fri., Dec. 31, 1982. THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW # Storms batter U.S. again Associated Press Bloated rivers claimed new territory Thursday in Louisiana and Mississippi where thousands of families have been displaced since Christmas in what is called a 100-year flood in some areas. A series of storms that began Christmas Eve has claimed at least 29 lives across the nation. A new snowstorm swept into the southern Rockies and bitter cold settled into the upper Midwest. Snow squalls along the shore of Lake Erie slowed rush hour traffic around Cleveland with up to 4 inches of snow by morning. The Tombigbee River crested at Columbus, Miss., at almost 8 feet above flood stage Thursday, but other rivers were still on the rise in the state where about 1,000 square miles were under water and 1,000 homes had been flooded. John Davis, a spokesman for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, said the flooding of more than 600,000 acres in the flat farmlands of the Mississippi Delta had already exceeded levels expected only once every 100 years. "That water is not going anywhere for a while because the Delta is so flat and the water is spread out everywhere," a spokesman for the weather service said. "The rivers and creeks are still extremely high and with the Mississippi River rising, there's no place for the water to go." In Louisiana, where 2,300 families had been affected by recent flooding and tornadoes, forecasters warned that "unprecedented" and "potentially dangerous" flooding was expected over the weekend in the southwest part of the state, along the Calcasieu River in Lake Charles. Weather officials predicted the Calcasieu would crest at Lake Charles on Saturday at about 10 feet -- 5 feet above flood stage. Out West, a winter storm warning was posted for the higher regions of southeastern Arizona, with 4 inches already on the ground at Prescott in the northwest part of the state, and a travelers advisory was issued for southern New Mexico where visibility was near zero. Temperatures dipped into the single digits or below zero from the upper Mississippi Valley through Wyoming and Colorado to Nevada and Oregon. Noontime readings were barely above zero in northern Minnesota and Jackson, Wyo., registered 7 below. In Minneapolis-St. Paul, where 16.5 inches fell Tuesday, most main roads had been cleared, but side streets remained clogged. # Warmer days saved millions on heating WASHINGTON (AP) -- That week of Indian summer at the beginning of December saved Americans $775 million in heating bills, the government reported Wednesday. That was a 44 percent savings from normal heating costs for the week of Nov. 29 through Dec. 5, according to the assessment and information services center of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Calculations of the cost of storms and flooding that followed the warm weather are not available. Under normal conditions for the week in early December, natural gas, electricity and oil for heat would cost Americans an estimated $1.742 billion. Those costs this year amounted to $967 million. The center said record highs were set for daily and weekly temperatures across the country, with the highest readings recorded from the Midwest to the Atlantic. The southeastern corner of the nation was the lone exception to the trend, reporting about normal readings for this time of year. The largest savings were reported in the East-North Central states where costs were down $223 million, or 57 percent. That area includes Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin. Savings of $177 million were reported for the mid-Atlantic states of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and $134 million was saved by residents of the South Atlantic states -- Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, the Carolinas, Virginia and West Virginia. All parts of the nation recorded some savings during the week, with the smallest being $2 million in the Mountain states and $3 million in Pacific Coast states. # Big bang blamed on U.S. spy plane SEATTLE (AP) -- An Air Force spy plane on a training flight between California and Washington was the likely cause of an explosive boom heard early Thursday by southwestern Oregon residents, a federal aviation official said. Bob Mayo, area manager for the Federal Aviation Administration's air traffic control center in Seattle, said the thunderous noise probably was a sonic boom from an SR-71, a high-speed, high-altitude reconnaissance plane from Beale Air Force Base in Marysville, Calif. "I don't know of anything else in the area that was capable of breaking the sound barrier," he said. Residents from Ashland to Roseburg reported hearing a deafening sound for several seconds shortly before 8:30 a.m. Fri., Jan. 7 1983. THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW # California shaking MAMMOTH LAKES, Calif. (AP) -- A series of strong earthquakes centered along the Eastern Sierra rocked a wide area of central California on Thursday, knocking groceries off store shelves and triggering minor panic in a restaurant. The quakes, beginning after 5 p.m. and centered in the seismically active Mammoth Lakes area, caused power outages in the Mammoth resort and were felt 100 miles to the west in the San Joaquin Valley cities of Fresno and Merced, authorities said. No injuries or major damage were immediately reported. "It came in first in our instruments near Mammoth Lake," said University of Nevada-Reno seismologist Wally Nicks. === Page 32 of 92 Quakes rumbling in Sierra Nevada MAMMOTH LAKES, Calif. (AP) Hundreds of earthquakes rumbled for a second day Friday through this Sierra Nevada ski resort, which since May has been under official notice of "potential volcanic hazard." Geologists stressed they haven't determined whether the earthquakes were associated with underground volcanic activity. More than 1,000 earthquakes were recorded in the first 12 hours of the swarm that began Thursday afternoon, including two strong tremblers that caused minor damage, geologists said. Groceries fell from shelves, power outages were triggered and an aluminum airport hangar collapsed. No injuries were reported, but the largest of the quakes panicked restaurant patrons and prompted some hotel and ski resort guests to leave the area, which is 200 miles east of San Francisco and 250 miles north of Los Angeles. While several resorts said they received numerous calls Friday from potential tourists concerned about the quakes, they said they expected normal business during the weekend. "I don't think people are too worried," said Julia Fitzpatrick, manager of the Mammoth Lakes Chamber of Commerce. "People who have lived here for any time are used to feeling small tremors." Scientists said they don't know just what the current quake activity means and emphasized that no one is predicting anything. Similar swarms have shaken the area in the past few years, contributing to the U.S. Geological Survey's decision May 27 to issue its potential hazard notice, the lowest of three levels of official alerts. "We are uncertain as to whether it is volcanic or tectonic" -- associated only with earthquake faults, said California State Geologist James Davis. "The prudent thing is to study the matter intensively and make other kinds of geologic observations that may help us." Michael Jencks, chairman of the Mono County Board of Supervisors, said, "We have in place a disaster plan. All the agencies were in touch, closely monitoring the quakes. That creates an atmosphere of confidence." Kathryn Lee, marketing coordinator for Whiskey Creek restaurant, where panicked customers ran outside as Thursday's quakes knocked out lights said, "A lot of them just yelled and screamed or laughed it off -- just tried to get out some emotion." The largest of Thursday's two moderate jolts measured up to 5.6 on the Richter scale, said Don Finley, spokesman for the U.S. Geological Survey's National Earthquake Information Center at Golden, Colo. Atlantic storm floods coastal towns Associated Press A violent Atlantic storm lugged the Eastern Seaboard with hurricane-force winds and rain Monday, pushing floodwaters into coastal towns, disrupting electrical service and crippling seagoing vessels. Storm warnings went up from the Carolinas to Long Island as the northeaster, described by the National Weather Service as "unusually strong," roared up the mid-Atlantic coast, eroding beaches with booming surf and destroying some beachside homes. The Coast Guard sent ships and planes to the aid of several disabled yachts and fishing vessels off the Virginia and Carolina coasts, but gave up a search for three people missing in rough seas off New Jersey where the chartered 50-foot fishing boat Joan Le Rie III capsized Sunday with 22 people aboard, and 14 persons were rescued. Elsewhere in the East, many inland cities reported record cold for October 25, ranging from the sub-freezing 26 at Fayetteville, Ark., and 28 at Cleveland, to 48 at Orlando, Fla. Parts of western North Carolina got 5 inches of snow. On the storm-tossed Outer Banks of North Carolina, 10 beach cottages were destroyed, another half dozen were undermined, and the only two highways serving the area -- N.C. 12 and U.S. 158 -- were closed by flooding and drifting debris. Winds were clocked at 74 mph at the Norfolk International Airport in Virginia early Monday, following gusts of 80 mph south of Frying Pan Shoals in North Carolina on Sunday afternoon. Perry Officer Daniel W. Sanders of the Coast Guard station in Chincoteague, Va., said winds topped 70 mph Monday along the Virginia seacoast and around the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. Robert J. Holden, spokesman for the Delmarva Power & Light Co. in Salisbury, Md., said high winds caused scattered power outages in the utility's entire service area, but mostly along the coasts of Delaware, Maryland and Virginia. About 8,000 Virginia Electric & Power Co. customers, mostly in sort of Ocean City, Md. Winds were clocked at 74 mph at Norfolk and Virginia Beach, lost electric power Sunday afternoon. Flooding in the Willoughby Spit area of Norfolk forced the evacuation of a dozen people. The fire department brought in large-wheel vehicles to carry out the residents. Some evacuations were ordered in New Bern, N.C., where Highway 17 was under several feet of water near the Neuse River Bridge. Schools closed in the Virginia communities of Chesapeake and Poquoson because many streets were under water. "Northeasters are a fact of life for us, so we don't get too excited about it," said city manager Arthur Barrett in the popular beach resort of Ocean City, Md. === Page 33 of 92 'Classic' snowstorm hits Northeast Associated Press A "classic" snowstorm that in some areas ranked among the worst of the century, piled cubits of The Northeast in snow up to 2 feet deep Sunday, with stiff winds building road-blocking drifts, causing scattered blackouts. Many residents of New England, remembering the Blizzard of 1978, stocked up on food in advance of the storm and stayed home. Even so, police reported many accidents. A Massachusetts man drowned early Sunday at Nantasket beach in the South Shore area of Boston when storm-driven waves swept him from a seawall where he had been walking with a companion, said police officer Richard O'Connell. Snow depths of more than a foot were common from northeastern Pennsylvania to Maine, with some areas getting much more, up to 30 inches in southern Vermont. On the bright side, troubled ski resort operators in New England compared the snow to white gold, worth "a couple of million dollars an inch" to the industry, which until this weekend could offer only man-made snow for downhill skiing and no cross-country skiing at all. By midday Sunday, 23 inches of snow had fallen in Albany, N.Y., the most for any snowstorm there in January since the government started keeping records more than 100 years ago. Except for a monster blizzard in 1888 that dumped 46 1/2 inches of snow on the Empire State's capital, the accumulation was just a few inches short of that left by the half-dozen worst storms ever to hit Albany. Paul Greaves of the National Weather Service in Albany had predicted the storm would be "a classic nor'easter." Winds in Boston gusts up to 45 mph and several Massachusetts communities lost power for a short time as snow-laden branches pulled down power lines. Utility officials in Rhode Island said 4,200 households were without electricity. Homeless people trudged to the Pine Street Inn in Boston, where extra beds were set up for up to 600 people. The storm, which swept east of Boston into Maine during the day, curtailed some operations at Logan International Airport Saturday night. "The snow here is very wet and hard to clear," said Charity Brown, a spokeswoman for the Massachusetts Port Authority, which runs the airport. The heaviest snowfall came in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts, where 2 feet accumulated. Other measurements included 22 inches at Wilmington, Vt., and 17 inches at Montpelier, Vt. Snow was falling as fast as 2 inches an hour at Maine, with 14 inches already on the ground at Kittery. At least 16 inches had fallen at Bangor, Me., with about 15 inches in northern towns of Vermont, 14 inches in northeastern Pennsylvania and northwestern Rhode Island. Inland Connecticut also got more than a foot, with 15 inches reported at Barhamsville and Bakersville and 14 inches at Norwalk. About a foot of snow covered most of central Massachusetts, with Boston getting 3 to 7 inches while Lowell, about 45 miles northwest, received a foot and a half, as did southern Worcester County. As temperatures dropped into the 20s, wet snow turned into ice, making roads treacherous. Rhode Island Gov. J. Joseph Garrahy urged residents to stay off the highways. The largest accumulation in Connecticut occurred in Waterbury, where 16 inches fell. The state's ski resorts reported brisk business Sunday. In Vermont, police said blowing and drifting snow had sent many cars careening off the highway, especially along Route 91. But Massachusetts state police reported only a few fender-bender collisions on state roads. Albany, N.Y., recorded 23 inches of snow, the most for any January snowstorm there since the government started keeping records. Thousands flee floods on Midwest rivers Associated Press Rescuers in boats and helicopters plucked thousands of people to safety Monday as record floods up to the eaves of houses poured through the Mississippi Valley, inundating communities from Illinois to the Gulf Coast. Storms spinning off tornadoes killed about 20 people in the central states late last week and raised rivers that swelled rivers to their highest marks ever in places. In Missouri, communities just southwest of St. Louis, more than 18,000 people scrambled out of their homes as the Meramec and Mississippi rivers crested 13 feet above flood stage at Camden. In Arkansas, the Ouachita River was expected to crest 13 feet above flood stage at Camden. In southeastern Missouri, Wayne County officials said the flooding had knocked out about 90 percent of the county's 700 miles of roads and two-thirds of the bridges. About 1,900 families had fled in Illinois and officials said "the worst is yet to come." Gov. James R. Thompson was considering declaring the entire state a disaster area after the worst flooding of the century in some areas. "We've got a lot of water coming down the White," said Don Schwartz, a hydrologist for the National Weather Service. "We can't overstate the seriousness of it. Our main concern is getting the lives out of there." In many cities such as Peoria, Ill., where the river had not yet crested, thousands of residents were sandbagging their homes. The storms "seemed to miss almost no part of the state, so it's probably the most devastating damage we've ever had," Arkansas Gov. Frank White said Monday as he toured storm-damaged areas.

Up to 5 inches of snow fell in Ohio, where five people died in traffic accidents on snow-slick roads. Illinois Gov. James Thompson, who already has designated 27 counties state disaster areas, on Saturday asked President Reagan to declare 22 of them federal disaster areas. "This is a request for help on behalf of thousands of Illinois citizens whose lives have been disrupted," he said. An estimated 4,500 people remained homeless in Illinois. The week-long flooding caused an estimated $600 million damage in Illinois, Missouri and Arkansas. At one point, up to 35,000 people were homeless. The storms killed 20 people and left three missing. About 80 miles of the Illinois River, from Grafton to Beardstown, will be closed to navigation indefinitely because of high water, Thompson said. He also said 30 levees had been destroyed. Late Friday, President Reagan declared 15 Missouri counties federal disaster areas, making merchants and homeowners eligible for low-interest loans. Twenty-two Missouri counties already had been declared state disaster areas. In Arkansas, a National Weather Service spokesman said Saturday's 1 to 2 inches of rainfall would only slow the receding of the Black and the White rivers, which had forced hundreds of people from their homes. In Clinton, Ark., population 1,284, merchants made the best of the situation by holding flood sales Friday. "Almost every store has a sale," said Thomas Love, Van Buren County sheriff's dispatcher in Clinton. Merchants were cutting prices on "everything that was in town that didn't get washed away," he said. Muddied stereos and shotguns were going for half price, and jeans that normally go for up to $18 were on sale at $10. "Clothes ... have been going pretty good," he said. "People can wash them." On the western edge of Saturday's storm, Texas reported widespread rain and snow, and travelers' advisories were posted in the Panhandle, the southern Plains and north-central part of the state. Snow fell across the upper Ohio Valley and northern Atlantic Coast states, with 5 inches in northern and central Ohio, and 3 inches in Canton and Youngstown, Ohio. Five inches fell in Pittsburgh, Pa. Winter storm watches were posted for Saturday night in southern Delaware, southern Maryland, southeastern Virginia and the northern mountains of North Carolina. # New storm strikes Midwest; thousands remain homeless Associated Press A new storm drove freezing rain into the Midwest Friday just as riverbank cities were drying out from a week of flooding that inflicted $600 million in damage to the recession-burdened economies of three states. Thousands of people were still homeless in Illinois and Gov. James R. Thompson declared 20 more counties disaster areas Friday, bringing the total to 27, as the Illinois River receded from soggy towns and cities all along its route. The Mississippi River flooded eight businesses and forced 60 families out of their houses in Cape Girardeau, Mo., before cresting Friday. Dozens of evacuees stayed at a church and City Hall overnight and were expected to be out of their homes until next week. In many places the water that forced evacuations of as many as 35,000 people during a week of destruction was still high enough to threaten homes and jobs. "We're all pitching in, because if the water comes in, we'll be out of a job," said Jim Bomhold, 22, a cook at the River Station restaurant near the Illinois River in Peoria, Ill. The restaurant was sandbagged and surrounded by water, and pumps were keeping it dry. "I don't want to be looking for a job in this unemployment situation," he said. The Southern California desert town of Ocotillo was flooded Thursday by mountain runoff after a heavy rain, but floodwaters had subsided by Friday. Most of the residents of the tiny community returned to their homes during the night. "We haven't had anymore rain all evening and the waters have gone down," said Imperial County Sheriff's dispatcher Linda Valenzuela. In Illinois, about 1,600 homes were affected by floods in a 70-mile stretch from Henry, north of Peoria, south to Liverpool. Eighty-six homes had major damage and 568 families were evacuated, officials said. The hamlet of Liverpool was submerged, leaving virtually all of its 243 inhabitants homeless. The new storm dumped a foot of snow in Flagstaff, Ariz., and covered the Arizona mountains with a heavy coating of snow before advancing eastward on the Midwest. Rain, freezing rain and snow fell on central Illinois and Ohio. Waters were still rising in a few areas. The Army Corps of Engineers in Peoria said the river reached 27.5 feet Thursday night and had dropped a half-foot by morning. The flood-swollen Mississippi River leveled off at Cape Girardeau several feet below predictions and 10 feet below the record crest during the floods of 1973. === Page 35 of 92 UFOs Sun Attack Sp Rev 1/21/83 Spokane, Wash., Fri # Freezing rain, high winds batter South Associated Press A winter storm iced Dixie from Mississippi to the Carolinas on Thursday, closing schools, knocking out power and glazing highways, while hurricane-force winds buffeted the Gulf Coast. The fierce winds boiling 25-foot seas swamped boats, tore an oil rig loose from its mooring, and killed one man and injured three others when a boat capsized near the mouth of the Mississippi River. The winds contributed to coastal flooding from Louisiana to Florida. Schools closed in many Deep South cities, including Atlanta and Birmingham, Ala., as roads were glazed with treacherous freezing rain, sleet and snow. The homes and businesses of about 250,000 people across Alabama lost power and Birmingham Mayor Richard Arrington signed an emergency disaster order. Gov. George Wallace called off a special session of the Legislature. Many cities of the Northeast were numbed by record cold and the crowds grew at shelters for the homeless. In the Southwest, a foot and a half of snow fell in places as a new storm swept out of the Sierra Nevada. Record low temperatures for the date were posted in cities such as Elkins, W.Va., 14 below zero; Muskegon, Mich., 10 below; Syracuse, N.Y., 9 below, Traverse City, Mich., 8 below, and Buffalo, N.Y., 5 below. During the cold snap in New York City this week, officials reported more than 4,600 people had turned out at 11 shelters for the homeless, more than at any time since the Great Depression. A gymnasium was opened at Boston City Hospital to shelter the homeless there. Coast Guard Petty Officer Doug Bandos in New Orleans said some vessels were in trouble in the Gulf of Mexico from Texas to Florida with winds of 80 mph producing 25-foot waves. "We have lots of things going on," he said. "Barges hither and thither, lots of boats ashore, lots aground, high water, rigs taking on water. You name it, we got it. Except for casualties. No casualties." The first casualty was reported later Thursday, after the vessel Jennifer Lindsay capsized about 5 miles from Northeast Pass at the mouth of the Mississippi River. An unidentified man died before dawn, said Coast Guard spokesman James Koch, while one man was rescued and three others were missing. The Coast Guard did not know what kind of vessel the Jennifer Lindsay was, Koch said. An offshore oil rig with 51 people on board tore loose from its anchors and went adrift 50 miles off Louisiana. Most of the crewmen were evacuated but a standby crew was left on board. On Florida's Gulf Coast, officials reported sunk, adrift or damaged vessels, including a 610-foot oil tanker and a 145-foot tugboat, said Coast Guard spokesman James Koch. No injuries were reported, but the eight-man crew of the tanker Phosphorus rocked in the waves in the Gulf. In Alabama, about 250,000 homes and businesses lost power, including 90,000 in Birmingham. Power lines and tree limbs snapped as freezing rain glazed the state. UFOs Sun Attack Sp Rev 1/27/83 # High wind, heavy rain lash California; 6 killed Associated Press The third big blow of the week flogged California with tree-topping wind, booming surf and driving rain Wednesday, washing away beaches, wrecking property and closing harbors with mudslides and shifting sand. The California storms that began over the weekend had killed at least six people and including a highway worker swept away leading a road crew by a mudslide Tuesday and another killed Wednesday when a mountain road collapsed. As Wednesday's downpour arrived, a foot of rain was forecast in the Santa Cruz Mountains, about 90 miles south of San Francisco, where 18 people died when mudslides crushed several homes last January. Officials in Fresno, Calif., were making plans to convert three miles of freeway into a giant storm sewer. Beachfront residents in coastal cities stacked tons of sandbags to protect their homes against a high tide coupled with 15-foot waves, which tore boats loose from moorings. High wind warnings were posted along the coast of Oregon and the weather service said still more Pacific storms were headed toward the West Coast. In Point Arena, Calif., 150 miles north of San Francisco, the heavy surf, pounding rain and gusty wind smashed a wooden pier, toppling two restaurants and a fish packing company into the sea. One man was trapped briefly inside the wreckage of Charlie's Fish House, but the breakfast crowd at Arena Cove Cafe fled safely before the building collapsed. No one was inside the Wharf Restaurant when the pier gave way, said Anita Cranmer, a clerk at the Mendocino County Sheriff's Department. Tides rose to a record 9.93 feet at the Rio Vista Bridge on the Sacramento River, said state flood emergency coordinator Bill Helms. In southern California, piers were closed in San Diego and Los Angeles counties. === Page 36 of 92 UFOs Sun Attack # wo women killed in West Side windstorm SEATTLE (AP) - Utility crews worked Wednesday to finish restoring power to more than 50,000 Western Washington homes cut off from electricity by a fierce windstorm that left two women dead. Tuesday night's winds, which gusted between 70 and 80 miles per hour at times, were sparked by a small but intense low-pressure area over southwestern Washington, the National Weather Service reported. It was expected to strike south of Washington, but took an unexpected turn north, then weakened as it moved into British Columbia, said Weather Service spokesman Paul Goree. The worst of the winds had calmed by early Wednesday. Power crews busily restored service throughout the length of Western Washington. Charlotte Simpson, 39, of Ocean Shores, died instantly Tuesday night of head and chest injuries she suffered when a 100-foot spruce crashed into her mobile home, said Grays Harbor County Coroner John Bebich. Authorities said the tree fell in 70 mph winds as Mrs. Simpson lay reading in bed with her husband Howard. He suffered an ankle injury. Authorities said Simpson was pinned in bed until neighbors heard his cries for help. In a separate accident, Charlette Farquharson, 48, Roy, a community near Tacoma, was killed Tuesday night near Tacoma when a tree fell on the car in which she was riding, the State Patrol reported. Allen L. Hansen, 52, Graham, the driver, suffered a broken hip and other injuries and was reported in stable condition in Tacoma General Hospital. One of two floating bridges linking Seattle with suburban communities east of Lake Washington was closed temporarily because of the high winds, as was the Hood Canal Floating Bridge linking the Kitsap and Olympic Peninsulas. At the height of the storm Tuesday night, about 25,000 Puget Power customers were out of service in King County, about 20,000 of them in north King County, Puget Power spokesman Chris Curtis said.

Meanwhile, gale warnings were posted on the coast of the Pacific Northwest, and damage estimates ran as high as $10 million in Washington state from last week's high winds, pounding surf and overflow tides. In Connecticut, dozens of people were left stranded on snow- and ice-covered highways and many schools canceled or delayed classes. Up to 4 inches of snow fell in some parts of Massachusetts, including the Boston area, where several schools canceled classes. In many areas, the storm began Sunday as freezing rain that turned to snow. A Connecticut man was killed Sunday night in Ashford when his car slid on an ice-covered road and collided with another vehicle, state police said. Jeffrey Hartman, 30, died, and his passenger, his wife Denise, was injured and hospitalized in serious condition Monday. In Massachusetts, Deborah M. Dempsey, 22, of Watertown, died Sunday night when her vehicle slammed into the back of a snow plow as she exited a highway. Also Sunday, Alice Graves, 79, of Springfield, Mass., was killed when her car and a tractor-trailer truck collided in Sturbridge. "The roads were icy and they weren't sandy at the time," said state Trooper William Apgar. Two other people were injured. Eight inches of snow was reported in the mountains of West Virginia at the Snowshoe ski resort and the town of Pickens. Six inches accumulated in the town Sinks of Gandy, 5 inches in Flat Top and Glady, and 4 inches in Beckley, Thomas and Mount Storm. "The roads are snow-covered and slick," West Virginia state police dispatcher Linda Moates said Monday. "We're expecting 2 to 4 more inches today. We've had some fender-benders, but nothing serious." Schools in two West Virginia counties, Raleigh and Preston, were closed. In Vermont, snow fell statewide Monday but motorists and road crews seemed to be handling the situation well. # Storm----------(Continued from page 6)---------- In addition, between 400 and 500 Poulsbo and Port Townsend residents serviced by Puget Power lost electricity, she said. The storm caused the loss of power to 6,000 Seattle City Light customers, company spokesman John Graham reported. In Pierce County, Peninsula Light Co. and Puget Sound Power & Light Co. each reported power losses to about 5,000 customers, while Tacoma City Light lost power to 2,100 customers. Approximately 8,000-10,000 customers were without power in Grays Harbor County Tuesday night, said Grays Harbor Public Utility District spokesman Larry Hurlbert. Ocean Shores was the area hardest hit. In Snohomish County, more than 10,000 people lost their power, county PUD spokesman Kerry Edwards said. The PUD services 152,000 customers. Outages also were reported in Olympia and Chehalis. The State Patrol reported the Evergreen Point Floating Bridge across Lake Washington was closed late Tuesday night after 80 mph winds were reported. The bridge reopened early Wednesday. The Hood Canal Floating Bridge was closed about 11:30 p.m. (PST) by high wind and waves, the state Department of Transportation said. It reopened about 2:50 a.m. Sun Attack # France hit by floods PARIS (AP) - The southwestern city of Poitiers was almost floodbound and water supplies to 30,000 people in the Cognac region were being cut Wednesday as floods swept many parts of the country. Only three roads remained open into Poitiers, 210 miles from Paris, as the Clain River overflowed its banks. Police asked that motorists not try to reach the town and that its 85,000 inhabitants not use their cars. === Page 37 of 92 UFOs Sun Attack SF. Rev 12/26/82 # Christmas is a sad day in flooded French city of Macon MACON, France (AP) -- Flooding, merged the downtown area of this central French city with 20 inches of water Saturday, disrupting Christmas festivities for the second consecutive year. But in the rest of the country, rain-swollen rivers subsided. "Without trying to be dramatic, the situation is very sad," said a red-and-white clad Santa Claus in a Macon photo shop where few children had stopped to pose for a $4.40 photograph with Father Christmas. "People are being financially conservative," he said. "They don't want to buy anything unnecessary, in case the situation gets worse." The flooding of the Saone River forced many Macon families to find shelter with neighbors on Christmas. The city of 40,000 people is about 210 miles southeast of Paris. Other rain-swollen rivers throughout France continued to subside after a week of flooding that had forced thousands of families to evacuate their homes for several days or live amid several inches of water. In Paris, the Seine River rose above its banks last week, forcing the closure of riverside expressways. No homes were threatened in the capital, however, and only a handful of families living in houseboats along the Seine had to evacuate. The rising Seine River apparently did not dissuade Parisian Christmas shoppers even though the closure of the riverbank expressways caused traffic jams. Paris stores reported Christmas sales about 10 percent higher this year. # Denver digs out of snow -- slowly UFOs Sun Attack SF. Rev 12/27/82 By JENNIFER PARMELEE Associated Press DENVER -- City buses and taxis were left in their garages and the airport operated at a sluggish pace Sunday as Denver slowly dug out from a blizzard that killed three people and left one missing. Thousands of people here are sick, tired and frustrated, said Dr. Bruce Malone, a surgeon from Austin, Texas, who has been stranded at Stapleton International Airport for two days with his family of four. "We have some peanut butter with us, but that's about all the food we can get," said Malone, whose flight Sunday was canceled. "I want to get my family out of here." The storm that began Christmas Eve left up to 3 feet of snow in the city. Transportation for the area's 2 million residents was limited mostly to four-wheel drive vehicles, cross-country skis and foot. Lt. Gov. Nancy Dick said most state offices in the metropolitan area would be closed today, with the exception of "critical" employees dealing with some areas of health care, public safety and highway maintenance. ## Ice chunk grounds plane -- Page 2 There were only 12 takeoffs and landings an hour at Stapleton, one-fourth of normal. Food was in short supply at airport restaurants, diapers and baby formula were nowhere to be found and trash was piled high. Legions of weary travelers settled in for another night at the airport, using coats for blankets and gift packages as pillows. An unsuccessful search was conducted Sunday in Huerfano County for contract mailman Howard Hubbs who vanished during the peak of the blizzard. Undersheriff Leo said 30 people on foot, snowmobile and no traces whatsoever" of Hubbs, but the search today. t Service said Sunday that a man identi- ldon was cross-country skiing in the y near Montezuma when he set off an ied and killed him. roner Paul Stoddard said Anna Mais, went outside during Christmas Eve, got snow and died. of Adams County, was found dead by is from his car, which apparently de- al problems during a whiteout.

Rev 2/3/83 # Tornadoes slap Florida; Midwest buried by snow Associated Press A half-dozen tornadoes howled across Florida on Wednesday, killing one person and blacking out thousands of homes, while a snowstorm billed as the worst of the winter in parts of the Midwest piled up more drifts in a three-day onslaught that has claimed 16 lives. In Pennsylvania, where Punxsutawney's groundhog failed to see his shadow and thus forecast an early spring, winds gusting to 74 mph toppled trees and flipped over two tractor-trailers in Erie. The National Weather Service urged residents of the area to stay indoors. Meanwhile, a new Pacific storm hit water-logged Southern California with moderate rain and gusty winds. Forecasters warned of rock and mudslides in coastal areas battered by devastating storms last week. However, the storm -- the fifth to hit California -- was not expected to generate the powerful waves that destroyed or damaged thousands of beach homes and piers last Thursday and Friday. A line of heavy thunderstorms and tornadoes moved into northeastern Florida before dawn, overturning cars and house trailers, tearing off roofs and uprooting trees. Eight people were injured when a twister slammed into an apartment complex in Orlando, where about 100 homes were reported damaged. A church and a country store 14 miles east of Gainesville were toppled by high winds. A 60-year-old man was killed in Hawthorne when his house collapsed during a tornado. In Dover, a tornado tore homes from their foundations, injuring two women, and a man was hospitalized in New Harmony for injuries suffered when a twister flipped over his trailer and left him pinned beneath a refrigerator. At least 10,000 homes in the Orlando area were left without power. The storm, which has been moving eastward across the South since Monday, flooded streets in Mobile, Ala., and western North Carolina. In the Midwest, winter storm warnings were posted in Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin on Wednesday as a winter storm which left drifts of up to 10 feet in Amarillo, Texas, moved toward the northeast and Canada. The storm had been blamed for 16 deaths since Monday. Kansas, Missouri, Michigan and Iowa each reported two deaths in traffic accidents, while five people died in accidents in Texas, two people died of heart attacks while shoveling snow in Kansas and an 82-year-old === Page 38 of 92 UFOs Sun Attack # Deadly ice storm sweeps across East Associated Press Sp. Rev. 1/24/83 An ice storm blamed for 23 deaths sent cars and trucks spinning into ditches across the Northeast on Sunday and another big blow produced warnings of fresh snow a yard deep in parts of the West. Freezing rain and sleet across northeastern Pennsylvania, eastern New York and much of New England caused many accidents, some fatal. Even the salt trucks had problems. "Just about all over the whole state there are cars off the road," said New Hampshire Highway Department dispatcher Joseph Hickey. "Everybody's out and doing their best, but it's just something terrible. You put salt on it and it melts and refreezes. It's one good mess." Hickey said salt trucks in many areas had to back up hills, driving over their own covering of salt for traction. "They can't even go up themselves," he said. State police in West Virginia said two teenagers were killed early Sunday when their car slid off icy U.S. 522 near their hometown of Berkeley Springs. Freezing rain forced President Reagan to use a car rather than a helicopter to return to the White House Sunday, after a weekend at the Camp David, Md., presidential retreat. In Poughkeepsie, N.Y., police said icy roads caused an early morning two-car accident that killed a 15-year-old Millbrook girl and injured three other people, two of them teenagers. In Troy, N.Y., authorities said five firemen were injured in two accidents. A fire truck skidded and struck a telephone pole and another emergency vehicle on its way to the accident was hit by a truck. The storm had frosted the Deep South and parts of the Midwest late last week, contributing to 15 deaths in the Carolinas, Alabama, Georgia, Texas, and five in Illinois, Wisconsin and Kansas. In the West, another powerful storm out of Alaska was expected to dump 1 to 3 feet of snow in the Sierra Nevada. Winter storm warnings also were in effect in western Nevada and Southern Idaho. UFOs Sun Attack # Alaska and Italy shaken by moderate earthquakes Associated Press Sp. Rev. 8/16/82 Two moderate earthquakes struck in widely separated areas of the world 38 minutes apart Sunday. A quake registering 4.6 on the Richter scale was felt Sunday along much of the Seward Peninsula in Alaska. No damage was reported according to the Tsunami Warning Center in Palmer. The quake was reported at 6:48 a.m., Alaska time (8:48 a.m., PDT) and was centered about 100 miles east of Nome, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration observatory said. The tremor was felt from Nome to Elim, about 100 miles to the east, the observatory said. On the Richter scale, each increase of one number which killed 131, registered 8.4 on the Richter scale. Another earthquake Sunday caused more concern when it shook the mountain towns east of Naples, Italy, causing panic and damaging a few buildings slightly, police said. There were no immediate reports of injuries. The earthquake, measuring about 4 on the Richter scale, struck at 5:10 p.m. (8:10 a.m. PDT) and its epicenter was in Monte Vulture, near the epicenter of the devastating earthquake of Nov. 23, 1980, which killed nearly 3,000 people. Hundreds of frightened people ran into the streets in several towns, including the tourist resorts of Salerno and Cava dei Tirreni on Naples. The UFOs Sun Attack # South braces for flooding Associated Press Sp. Rev. 1/1/83 With more rain on the way and "no place for any more water," volunteers stacked thousands of sandbags Friday to try to hold back floodwaters that have driven more than 10,000 people from their homes in Louisiana and Mississippi. In Texas, a snowstorm piled up foot-deep drifts in El Paso, prompting police to urge the 450,000 residents to stay home and closing the airport to inbound flights. The National Weather Service predicted ankle-deep snow would greet visitors to the Cotton Bowl football game in Dallas on Saturday. "The worst area now is out in El Paso," said Bob Neely, a spokesman for the Texas highway department. "We're reporting snow and ice accumulations up to 8 inches, with significant visibility problems from blowing snow." Louisiana Gov. Dave Treen, taking a flying look at flooded areas from Monroe in the northeast to Lake Charles in the southwest, said a statewide survey showed the flooding from up to 17 inches of rain earlier in the week had forced 9,700 people out of their homes. "What seems ominous is that there's no place for any more water, and they think they're going to get rain," Treen said Friday during a stop in Monroe. "I don't want to be an alarmist, but we've got to be ready. There seems to be water everywhere." Storms and floods since Christmas have killed six people in Louisiana, one in Mississippi and four in Arkansas. Before leaving Baton Rouge, Treen said he sent a telegram to President Reagan advising him that when survey results are in, Louisiana will ask for federal disaster declarations for 19 counties so flood victims can get low-cost federal loans. In Mississippi, where an estimated 1,000 homes have been evacuated since the Christmas holiday rains, Gov. William Winter toured Greenwood, Greenville and Moorhead in the Delta area where water covered 600,000 acres. Officials in Grenada, Leflore and Washington counties have asked for disaster aid. Winter said the purpose of his visit was to give additional credibility to the counties' disaster declarations prepared for federal review. However, the Tombigbee River crested Thursday at Columbus about 2 feet below expected levels and several hundred families that had fled began returning home. Almost half a foot of snow blanketed much of Texas north of a line stretching from Corsicana to Tyler. Snow also fell over much of New Mexico and a mixture of snow and rain spread over Oklahoma. === Page 39 of 92 UFOs 100x Attacks # Fierce thunderstorm blasts through Boise 8/12/82 By JOHN HARRINGTON Associated Press BOISE, Idaho -- A fierce, sudden thunderstorm rampaged through the Boise area Wednesday, with 60 mph winds toppling trees and snapping power lines, authorities said. Boise firefighters pulled eight people on innertubes and rubber rafts from the Boise River, said Batallion Chief Burl Smith. He said the current sent them into a tree which had fallen into the river. "It was the worst wind I've ever seen since I've been in this valley and that's been 40 years," Smith said. "I consider us awful lucky. I don't know how we got off without having anyone killed or seriously injured," he said. He said damage would be in the millions of dollars. Garden City police said two people were injured in a collision after traffic signals were knocked out, and a 22-vehicle pileup was reported near Mountain Home. Two people were killed in another accident in the Garden City area that an Ada County dispatcher said was storm-caused, but Sheriff's Sgt. Lonnie Sanborn said investigators found the accident was not related to the storm. her husband told her by telephone that a neighbor's roof had landed on the front lawn of her house on the city's outskirts. Paul Rausch, a forecaster for the National Weather Service, said winds were clocked at 60 mph at Boise Airport on the city's south side. He said winds were probably stronger on the north side, where the brunt of the storm hit. Wind-driven soot from a burned out field reduced visibility to zero, causing a pileup involving about 22 vehicles about five miles south of Mountain Home, police said. Detective Bob George, of the Mountain Home Police Department, said high winds carried the soot across Idaho 67 from an area burned by a range fire earlier this week. He said three people were seriously injured, with one being transported by ambulance to St. Alphonsus. "Just like a big dense fog was what it was -- but worse," George said. George said traffic was halted for two hours. Garden City Police Officer Daniel Hatch said a car and pickup truck collided when traffic lights at Chinden Boulevard and 44th Street were knocked out. The car driver and her 13-year-old daughter were taken to Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center and St. Luke's Regional Medical Center. Their condition was not immediately known. Hatch said power had been lost in the area for about an hour. Traffic lights had been switched to flashing red, said a Boise police supervisor at St. Luke's. UFOs 100x Attack Spok Rev 10/26/82 # Strong quake jolts central California COALINGA, Calif. (AP) -- A strong earthquake that caused seismographs to go "bananas" rocked at least a 14-county area of central California on Monday, but there were no reports of injury or major damage, officials said. "It was a real good shaker," said Lt. Eugene McDaniel of the California Highway Patrol office in Coalinga. "I was just sitting in my office and felt trembling. You feel like vertigo ... We got out of the building ... Telephone poles and wires were swaying." Magnitude of the jolt was rated by seismographs from California to Colorado at between 5 and 6 on the Richter scale -- large enough to cause serious damage in a populated area. The quake at 3:26 p.m. was centered about 10 miles north of the tiny town of Coalinga, about 35 miles southwest of Fresno in the sparsely populated western edge of the San Joaquin Valley, said Dolores Page of the seismology lab at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena. The epicenter was placed near the Pinnacles National Monument. McDaniel said merchandise tumbled from shelves in several stores in the rural community and two establishments had to close because their aisles were clogged with broken goods. Roy Manning, director of emergency services for Fresno County, said there did not appear to be any major damage or injuries in the epicenter area. "Our equipment just went bananas," a woman at the University of California seismology center at Berkeley said of the initial quake. "It's a biggie." A major aftershock measuring 4.3 on the Richter scale was recorded at 4:13 p.m., said Caltech spokesman Dennis Meredith. PD Sun Attack # Violent Pacific storm slams into California Associated Press Spok Rev 12/1/82 The worst Pacific storm of the season crashed into California with 78-mph winds and driving rain Tuesday, triggering mudslides, felling trees, sinking boats and cutting electricity to a half-million people. At least five people were killed and three others were reported missing as the storm pounded the coast from San Francisco to San Diego. The storm dumped up to 4 feet of snow in the Sierra Nevada range in northern California, coming down at the rate of 2 inches an hour. About 29 inches was on the ground at Blue Canyon, Calif., 40 inches around the Lake Tahoe Basin, and about 12 inches in the Wasatch mountains of Utah. A number of roads were closed. A winter storm warning calling for heavy snow also was posted in the northern half of Arizona. A blizzard on 14,162-foot Mount Shasta trapped six skiers for 10 hours before they were rescued, officials said. In Hawaii, meanwhile, estimates of the damage from Hurricane Iwa had reached $181.5 million, with 480 dwellings destroyed and hundreds of others damaged. The Red Cross was still feeding about 5,000 people. Forecasters in Honolulu, who had worried earlier in the day about a new storm near Midway Island, said the threat of that disturbance had diminished. But the storm on the mainland hit full steam. A Los Angeles utility worker was killed when a 110-ton crane toppled in the high wind. === Page 40 of 92 Spok Rev 1/9/83 # Volcano's eruptions slow down VOLCANO, Hawaii (AP) -- Residents who were evacuated from the lower slopes of the volcano Kilauea were allowed to return home Saturday, and scientists said the eruptions may be ending after a week of activity. Sixty people were evacuated Friday from the Royal Gardens subdivision as a river of lava approached the area at a speed of one kilometer an hour, said scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey's Volcano Observatory on the island of Hawaii. People were allowed to return home and roadblocks to the area were removed at 9 a.m. Saturday, said Harry Kim, the head of Hawaii County Civil Defense. Authorities could mount another evacuation on an hour's notice if needed, Kim said. Spok Rev 1/25/83 # Pacific storms bring waves, slides, snow Associated Press A train of Pacific storms rumbling across California with 70 mph winds and heavy rains sent mudslides tumbling across highways Monday as thousands of people lost power and many fled their flooded homes. Fresh snow waist deep in the Sierra Nevada blocked mountain routes and 15-foot waves pounded the beaches of Southern California. On the other side of the country, a coat of ice and heavy fog hampered travel in much of New England and upstate New York. Down South, residents of Key West, Fla., were drying out from a weekend deluge of 12 inches of rain that one police dispatcher described as "like a hurricane." At least 28 deaths have been blamed on the violent weather that began last Thursday with an ice storm that turned out the lights in more than 170,000 homes in the South. Al Arey, a spokesman for the Vermont highway department, said Monday the state's heavy highway trucks were sliding off the road even with chains on the tires. "It's been a real merry-go-round," he said. "We get a route done and we have to start all over again." Elsewhere in the Northeast, warming weather forced the cancellation of the nation's richest sled dog race scheduled this weekend in Saranac Lake, N.Y. The Alpo International Sled Dog Championships would have paid prize money totaling $30,000 to racers from as far away as Alaska. The snow, however, was falling in other places. Winter storm warnings were posted in northeastern California and the Lake Tahoe basin of western Nevada. Snow also was scattered from northeast Montana across North Dakota, northern Minnesota and the upper Great Lakes region. Up to three feet of fresh snow was expected in the Sierra Nevada. About 16 inches of snow fell during the night on Interstate 80 at Donner Pass in California and three other major roads across the Sierra were closed, including California Highway 70 through Feather River Canyon, which was blocked by a mudslide. Forecasters in California said the storm was the second of four expected to hit the coast before the week is out. "There are two storms headed toward us," said John Quadros, a meteorologist with the weather service in Redwood City, Calif. "The first is due Tuesday afternoon and the next one Friday." Mud began sliding down the hillsides in Southern California on Monday morning. Highway crews worked to keep the Pacific Coast Highway open between Malibu and Santa Monica, just up the coast from Los Angeles, but the slides closed the Malibu Canyon-Los Virgenes Road which connects with the Ventura Freeway. "When we get a rain following a saturation ... the mountains start tumbling down," said Sgt. Charles Putnam of the Los Angeles County sheriff's department. More than 80 people evacuated their homes in Northern California, including 50 from an apartment complex near San Jose. One vacant house tumbled down a hillside at Oakland, and 5,000 commuters were without a train ride because of washouts on the Southern Pacific Railroad between San Jose and San Francisco. Power failed briefly late Sunday in about 4,100 homes and businesses in San Jose, with other scattered blackouts in Oakland, San Francisco, Pacifica and Walnut Creek. A mudslide closed California's scenic Highway 1 about 20 miles south of Big Sur. In Southern California, heavy rain Saturday collapsed roofs on a shop in Manhattan Beach and a small factory in Gardena. The storm that iced the Northeast was moving out of the country but roads were still a mess in many areas. "Sanders and salters have been out all night but the roads are pretty slick," said Trooper Gred Haberstro in Plattsburgh, N.Y. "That's what people are calling." In Vermont on Sunday, the northbound lanes of Interstate 91 were closed for nearly four hours after about 50 vehicles, including five buses, skidded off the road in a two-mile stretch. Spok Rev 5/30/82 # Tornado kills 2 in Illinois MARION, Ill.

A spokeswoman in the emergency room of Marion Memorial Hospital said as many as 100 people were being treated there. The director of the Veterans Administration Hospital in Marion said the hospital had treated several tornado victims and that three of those suffered "severe" injuries. He said more victims were expected. The tornado "went right through the center of town," said John Abrams of WDDD-AM. "It hovered in the clouds for about 15 minutes and hopped to the ground several times." State troopers said twisters also ripped through Carterville and Crainville in Williamson County and Perry and Conant in neighboring Perry County. === Page 41 of 92 Holiday travelers stranded Associated Press A Christmas Eve blizzard howled across Colorado and Wyoming, leaving behind up to 2 feet of snow and stranding thousands of holiday travelers, while flood-ravaged towns in the Midwest watched rivers rise and began evacuating low-lying areas. Two tornadoes skipped across eastern Oklahoma on Friday, injuring at least six people and causing extensive damage. Less than 24 hours earlier, more than a dozen tornadoes leveled homes and businesses and injured more than three dozen people in Arkansas and Missouri. Damage was estimated at $10.6 million. The first big storm of the winter, which contributed to 14 deaths when it blasted the West Coast earlier this week, was "a real doozy," said Ryan Tilley of the National Weather Service in Kansas City, Mo. More than 40 inches of snow smothered parts of Yellowstone National Park. Two feet of snow covered Casper, Wyo., and Wondervu, Colo., southwest of Boulder, received a foot of snow in four hours overnight. The wind chill factor in Wyoming dipped to 40 below. Maintenance crews at Denver's Stapleton International Airport gave up trying to keep even one runway clear, and the airport, the seventh busiest in the world, was closed. "We can't even see to get out the plow," said airport spokesman Dave Scherer. Thousands of travelers milled around the complex, waiting for the swirling whiteness to clear. In Atlantic City, Wyo., 80 miners at a U.S. Steel plant were stranded at work because of blowing snow. But spirits were high and food freezers full, a security guard reported. Few traffic accidents were reported, apparently because the holiday kept many people at home, but snow plows were sent out to reach up to 10 vehicles trapped by snowdrifts on Interstate 15 in eastern Idaho. The storm, packing winds up to 50 mph, had stretched into Nebraska by afternoon and was drifting slowly toward the Great Lakes. "We're looking at a very dynamic winter storm system with a lot of moisture in the atmosphere for it to work with," said Tilley. "There's likely to be much more precipitation." "If people get stranded, it's a life-threatening storm," said Jim Schultz of the Weather Service office in Denver. In the lower Midwest, flash flood watches were posted for parts of Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Texas and Kentucky. Rivers and creeks in southeastern Missouri, inundated three weeks ago by record floods, were engorged by up to 3 inches of rain and began creeping over their banks. People living in low-lying areas of Marble Hill, Mo., were evacuated. "We're not taking any chances this time," said Marble Hill Fire Chief Jim Bollinger. "The creeks (Continued on page 2) 12/25/82 Stranded-- (Continued from page 1) are bank-full now. It's just a repeat of three weeks ago." "Everyone's moving out or sandbagging again. It's a frantic, day-before-Christmas effort," said a volunteer answering the phones at the Bollinger County Sheriff's office. Water was reported three feet deep in some sections of Piedmont, where residents had been cleaning up from the last flooding. Tornadoes and high winds ripped through southern Tulsa, Ketchum and Wright City, Okla., on Friday. In southwestern Arkansas, battered Thursday by tornadoes that caused more than $5 million damage to Texarkana alone, the mayor of Malvern imposed a 9 p.m. curfew to keep looters and sightseers out of damaged neighborhoods. More than three dozen people were injured, 11 homes and businesses destroyed and 49 homes damaged in the string of twisters. === Page 42 of 92 UFOs 100X Attack # Montana hail damage in $millions HELENA, Mont. -- Damage was estimated in the millions of dollars Tuesday in the wake of a storm that dumped huge hail stones on Montana's capital, shattering hundreds of windows, denting cars and leaving Swiss cheese patterns in roofs. County Disaster Coordinator Paul Spengler said damage from Monday night's storm was in the millions of dollars. Hail the size of golf balls and larger pelted the city about 7 p.m., rolling in on inky black clouds from the Continental Divide to the west. Winds of 56 mph propelled the hailstones that pelted Helena for almost half an hour. "Instead of looking like Helena last night it looked more like Beirut," said Grayson Cordell of the National Weather Service. Cordell said he measured a 3-inch hailstone at his home and saw grapefruit-sized hailstones that shattered as they hit the ground. In Great Falls, 90 miles north of Helena, an inch and a half of rain collapsed a 40-foot section of roof at a shopping mall early Tuesday. No one was in the Westgate Mall when the roof caved in. The falling roof broke water pipes and the 21-store mall was closed because of water damage. Bumper wheat crops in the Helena and Great Falls areas were flattened. An estimated 6,000 acres of alfalfa and grain crops were reported to have been damaged and perhaps destroyed in the hardest-hit areas of the Helena Valley. Hay and grain crops around Helena were beaten to the ground, some by accumulations of four feet of hail. Gardens in Helena were pulverized, trees had branches ripped off and cars had dented bodies and cracked windshields. In Helena, State Farm Insurance Agent Stan Henderer and other agents said that extra adjusters were being flown into the city to help process a flood of claims. "There's a rare person in Helena without damage," Henderer said. "Windows are broken, paint is peeled off sides of houses. Cars are unbelievably bent up." An automobile dealer said windows on nearly every car in his lot were broken. Skylights in the state Capitol were shattered and rain poured into the state law library, damaging law books. Damage to state buildings was estimated at up to $500,000. All but two of the 66 plate-glass windows in the state Mitchell Building across the street from the Capitol were smashed. Thirty-seven Montana National Guard helicopters were damaged at the Helena airport, some beyond repair, as hail penetrated the light aluminum skins and wrecked rotor blades. The state plane assigned to Gov. Ted Schwinden escaped damage. The streets of Helena were paved with slippery tree limbs and leaves. Even the Weather Service didn't have time to ready its defenses. The observation tower at the Helena airport had two double-paned windows broken and holes in a plastic roof. Roofing and glass suppliers in Helena said their phones wouldn't stop ringing.

The storm killed one person. Wind, high tides and flooding may have caused between $5 million and $10 million damage, said Larry Voshall, state Department of Emergency Services assistant director. Firm assessments weren't expected before Monday. Whatcom County, near the Canadian border, reported $3 million in damage. THE STORM WHIRLED out of the Pacific Wednesday night and lashed Western Washington for three days, prompting Gov. John Spellman to issue an emergency declaration for the entire area. The declaration clears the way for state aid. Winds gusting as high as 80 miles per hour raked the coast Saturday. Winds as high as 50 mph were reported Sunday morning on the northwest Washington coast, but the National Weather Service reported the winds calmed by mid-day to 15-35 mph. Forecasts called for brief periods of clearing Monday. Hardest hit by the brunt of the storm were low-lying inland areas from Seattle north to the Canadian border, where winds carried high tides over breakwaters and dikes into backyards and basements.

(AP) -- A storm packing winds up to 90 mph heavily damaged 19 mobile homes and camping trailers, injured eight people and left piles of hail along roads near Lake Sakakawea, authorities said. The storm Friday night lasted about 15 minutes, but the winds and marble-size hail destroyed crops and rolled 750-pound hay bales out of the fields. Clayton Folden, manager of the Frank Traynor Park at Van Hook, said area residents are unsure if the storm included a tornado. Folden said several of the mobile homes destroyed in the storm exploded from the force of the winds. At least four mobile homes, used as summer lakeside dwellings, were overturned and about 11 others were damaged, Folden said. Several boats and "a few vehicles" were also demolished in the storm, Folden said. === Page 43 of 92 WFD 100% Attack # 383 feared dead in floods TOKYO (AP) -- Weather cleared in the Nagasaki area of southwestern Japan Sunday, helping rescue workers in their grim search for bodies from the devastating floods and landslides that police fear killed up to 383 people. Fifty bodies were recovered Sunday from under tons of mud and debris, raising the number of bodies found to 176. Police said 207 people are still missing and presumed dead from the havoc created by torrential downpours Friday and Saturday. Rains dumped more from 16-22 inches of water on the mountainous terrain over a 24-hour period. About 1,200 landslides were reported in the Nagasaki area on the main island of Kyushu, burying hundreds of homes and blocking highways and railroads. Rescue workers drove bulldozers, soldiers wielded shovels and distraught relatives of the missing used their bare hands in the search for survivors, but a policeman said, "because of the tremendous amount of mud, rescue operations are not going as well as expected." More than 116 express and local trains were canceled in the region because railroads were swept away at three points, Japan National Railways officials said. They said more than 80,000 travelers were affected. For Nagasaki, called the San Francisco of Japan because of its scenic harbor and hilly neighborhoods, it was the worst flood in 25 years. Violent storms in 1957 claimed 992 lives in the area. Nagasaki, located on the East China Sea near the entrance to the Korean Strait, was the second -- and last -- Japanese city to be the target of an American atomic bomb in 1945. Spok. Rev. 7/82 More than 10 inches of rain fell on the Lake Michigan town of Holland, Mich., and lighting sparked several fires in the region, although no injuries were reported. "Some people tried to drive through the water, and they got flooded," Ottawa County Sheriff's Deputy John Overway said of the flooding near Holland. "Their cars are sitting there in the water. The problem is there's no place for the water to go at this point." Holland Police Chief Charles Lindstrom declared a state of emergency Saturday morning, and he said the rainwater caved in the roof of a Montgomery Ward store in downtown Holland, causing several thousand dollars' worth of damage. The mayor of Ottumwa, Jerry Parker, rounded up volunteers to fill 1,200 sandbags and shore up flood levees Friday when officials feared the river would crest that night at 18 feet. But Army Corps of Engineers spokesman Bill Koellner said later the river was expected to crest at 13½ feet. The U.S. Geological Survey said Saturday that along Cedar Creek, a tributary of the Des Moines River near Bussey, Friday's flooding reached the highest level in more than 40 years of available records. Authorities said measuring the flooding was difficult because some gauge stations couldn't be reached. The 69 mph winds early Saturday at Hector Field in Fargo, N.D., set an empty, parked Northwest Airlines 727 on its tail. July, '82 # Bad weather plagues Midwest Associated Press Rain from a barrage of summer storms in the upper Midwest caved in a department store roof and flooded roads in Michigan on Saturday, while winds upended a parked jetliner and inflicted an estimated $1 million in damage to a grain elevator in North Dakota. The temperature plummeted as much as 47 degrees overnight, and winds gusted up to 69 mph when the storms struck North Dakota early in the day. Two people were hurt as high winds tore a camper from a truck on Interstate 94 in northern Minnesota, and trees were toppled in northwestern Wisconsin. And 600 people who evacuated their mobile homes Friday in Ottumwa, Iowa, because of record flooding waited Saturday for the Des Moines River to crest, officials said. 7-14-82 # John Day Valley hit by wind, hail storm JOHN DAY (UPI) -- A freak storm with winds of more than 100 miles per hour and hail a half-inch in diameter cut through the John Day Valley Tuesday afternoon, knocking out electricity and damaging small buildings, aircraft and at least one car. There were no reports of injuries in the windstorm that started at 4:50 p.m. and lasted about 15 minutes. The storm hit hardest in John Day and Mount Vernon, eight miles to the west, and brushed the northern part of Prairie City to the east. Utility crews from CP National were working Tuesday night to restore electricity lines that were reported down throughout John Day and Mount Vernon. Radio station KJDY also was cut off the air and telephone service was disrupted. A helicopter at the John Day Airport received some damage when it was blown over on its side, and there also was some damage to the wings of a couple of small planes. A car in Mount Vernon was smashed when two trees fell on it. A number of small storage sheds and barns in the area were either crushed by falling trees and branches or damaged when blown off their sites. Falling trees also cut a number of power lines in the area. Two trailer houses were tipped over and completely demolished. Occupants were not at home during the storm. Dave Maxwell, a newsman at KJDY, said no one remembered having such a "freaky" summer storm in the area. === Page 44 of 92 More storms hit Midwest Associated Press The violent spring of '82 flogged the Midwest on Tuesday with punishing 70 mph winds and stinging rain that sent floods 8 feet deep through cities and wrecked a passenger train highballing through Iowa. At least two people were killed and dozens were injured. Hundreds of people abandoned their homes as thunderstorms again crashed into Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, and parts of Illinois, cutting down trees and power lines and smashing buildings. Communities were awash in floodwater over doorways in southwestern Iowa. Kansas got hit with 70 mph winds and four tornadoes that splintered homes, bent trees to the ground, and knocked out the lights for 30,000 residents of Wichita, plus many others elsewhere. Meanwhile, President Reagan on Tuesday declared Connecticut a disaster area and federal emergency officials were on their way to that state where floods on June 4-7 left at least $277 million in damage. The town of Sherman, Texas, was cleaning up from a Monday night tornado that wrecked at least four mobile homes and injured 10 people. Residents of Fort Morgan, Colo., were cleaning up from a 20-minute pounding by hail the size of baseballs that smashed hundreds of windows, battered automobiles and ruined corn crops Monday. "I have a lot of cars that look like their body work had been done with ball peen hammers," one insurance agent said Tuesday. In Emerson, Iowa, about 100 families of the town's 484 residents were evacuated by boat as Indian Creek, normally a placid stream 10 feet across, became a raging torrent 400 feet wide that left water marks 8 feet high in the business district. About 300 families were evacuated in neighboring Glenwood, population 4,421, and many others fled in Malvern, which has 1,150 residents. In the 12 hours ending at 7 a.m. Tuesday, almost 9 inches of rain fell at Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Wind tore the roof off the Douglas Elementary School in Des Moines. Iowa Gov. Robert Ray declared the Emerson region a disaster area and Gov. Charles Thorne in nearby Nebraska offered National Guard aid. Summer storms west with 100 mph winds, tornadoes and drenching rains built floods that washed deep into Oklahoma homes and closed roads and bridges in Illinois. Scores of people have been injured and dozens of homes and buildings have been wrecked since Tuesday in a line of thunderstorms stretching from the southern Plains to the Great Lakes. Oklahoma drenched with 8 inches of rain Associated Press Storms deluged Oklahoma with up to 8 inches of rain Thursday while crews worked to restore power in the suburbs of Philadelphia where floodwaters up to 8 feet deep routed 300 people from their homes. At least two people were killed Wednesday afternoon as a thunderstorm in northeast Philadelphia and suburban Bucks County dropped 5 inches of rain and knocked out the power to 60,000 residents. Ron Harper, a spokesman for the Philadelphia Electric Co., said power had been restored to most customers Thursday. He said the utility was providing dry ice to those without power. A power company lineman and a boy he was trying to rescue were electrocuted by a downed power line that had fallen into a puddle of water. Harper said lineman Frederick Worthington, 55, was out repairing fallen power lines when he saw William Miller, 11, fall off his bicycle into the puddle. Dave Butcher, a Red Cross spokesman, said the storm flooded 38 first-floor apartments in an apartment complex with 8 feet of water and damaged another 12 units, forcing 220 people from their homes. "It was total flood destruction," he said. Police in Bensalem Township evacuated 60 families from an apartment complex near creeks that feed the Delaware River. John Brady, a spokesman for Bell Telephone, said 10,000 customers lost service because the storm caused the roof to leak in a central office, short-circuiting equipment. Pennsylvania Route 132, a major thoroughfare in Bensalem Township, was covered with 4 feet of water. Dozens of stalled cars and trucks were left along the road, which parallels the Delaware River. In Oklahoma, the Cimarron River inched toward flood stage Thursday as a storm swept across the state. Lightning started several fires in Oklahoma City, and minor flooding closed a highway near Hennessey, authorities said. The North Canadian River overflowed its banks, sending water into some southeast Oklahoma City homes. Three Oklahoma City firemen braved lightning and driving rain for about an hour to recover the body of an unidentified man who drowned in a sandpit where he had been fishing. Investigators were uncertain what caused the man to fall into the water. Boy, 11, swept out to sea AGANA, Guam (AP) -- Thirty-foot waves churned up by a passing typhoon battered the southern coast of Guam, carrying an 11-year-old boy out to sea and leaving at least 12 families homeless, officials said. "We've had typhoons and big waves before, but never like this," said Albert Topasna, commissioner of Umatac, a village on the island's south shore. The boy, identified as Michael Baker of Naval Station, Guam, was watching the 25-30 foot waves with a friend when one of the waves swept across the rocks Saturday and carried him out to sea. === Page 45 of 92 UFOs Sun Attack # Killer storm wrecks coastal homes, roads Spokane, Wash., Fri., J Associated Press SPRW 1/28/83 The third storm in a chain blamed for nine deaths this week pounded California with hurricane-force winds, driving rains and 30-foot waves again on Thursday, toppling houses into the sea, washing out roads and forcing hundreds to flee flooded homes. "I knew it was all over when I saw the hot tub sail by into the ocean," said Becky Ilagan, who fled from her Malibu home just before it broke up in the boiling high tide. At least 100,000 homes lost power as the storm, which first hit the coast Wednesday, pushed across the Golden Gate state to the Rockies. The pounding surf destroyed beachfront buildings, collapsed piers and wrecked boats from the Oregon border to Mexico. Water was waist deep in many homes. Mudslides tumbled off hills and rivers rose out of their banks. "It's a nasty one," said Harry Gordon of the government's Severe Storms Forecast Center in Kansas City, Mo., and forecasters offered little respite. Another potent storm, part of the same system, will hit Friday "like the crack of a whip," said meteorologist Dick Vander, and there are two more behind that one. The latest of the three slow-moving storms whipped up 90-mph winds, dropped 3 or more inches of rain on some towns in a day and sent 20-foot breakers crashing over coastal roads. It plastered parts of the Sierra Nevada with 4 inches of snow an hour as it moved inland toward the Rockies. Some areas get several feet of fresh snow. About 200 families were evacuated from their flooded homes in Southern California coastal communities of Seal Beach and Surfside in Orange County. Police moved out residents of beachfront homes in Oceanside in San Diego County. About 150 people were evacuated by National Guardsmen and volunteers in Tehama City, a tiny community 140 miles north of Sacramento. A family of five in the Marin County town of Novato, about 20 miles north of San Francisco, escaped being buried alive when a mudslide crashed into a bedroom of their $300,000 home before dawn Thursday. Two homes slid down Fitch Mountain in the wine country of Sonoma County, north of San Francisco on Wednesday night. The landmark Crystal Pier in Pacific Beach fell apart and sagged, as did several others across California. geles, waves crashed through windows and flooded a dozen businesses and four restaurants. As many as 100 beachfront homes in Aptos, about 90 miles south of San Francisco, were under siege with the surf knocking out windows and eroding underpinnings. Richard Denny, a mining engineer whose home was smashed by the Novato mudslide, said the hillside "just got liquefied and came down." "There was a tremendous hissing sound and then... I jumped out of bed and there was mud coming in," said his wife, Jacqueline. No one was injured.

There was new snow in Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri and northeastern Oklahoma, but not in the amounts first forecast by the National Weather Service. Snow also was forecast for parts of the Northeast on Sunday, the fifth anniversary of the huge Blizzard of '78, a once-in-a-century storm that crippled the region for a week. And the unusually mild temperatures for the Northeast disappeared Saturday. The high temperature in New York City on Saturday afternoon was 32 degrees. It had reached 59 on Thursday. Residents of the Texas Panhandle had to contend with high winds that blew 14 inches of snow into drifts Saturday, and authorities said the few roads that remained passable again could be covered. The Texas Department of Public Safety reported that most roads were "snowpacked and hazardous" after the second in a series of winter storms dumped snow at rates of up to an inch an hour on the area Friday. In Kansas, winter storm warnings posted for the state were lifted after a storm that began Friday night moved quickly through the state and was not as serious as forecasters had expected. Knee-deep mud was the enemy in the Southwest, where Navajo families in New Mexico and Arizona remained marooned in isolated spots of their giant reservation. In New Mexico, trucks were delivering supplies to families that could be reached. === Page 46 of 92 Sun Attack # 4th storm pummels California coastline 1/29/83 LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The week's fourth and potentially fiercest storm walloped the battered California coastline Friday as people tried to dig out of more than 1,000 smashed homes and braced for more of the worst flooding in years. The storm, packing wind gusts of up to 60 mph, hit first in central California and into areas still reeling from heavy rains that sliced through piers and levees, damaged more than 1,000 homes and threw tons of sand and debris onto the shore. Picture on page 3 THE NEW STORM came from the Gulf of Alaska and the brunt of it made a loop, missing the Pacific Northwest and Northern California but plunging full steam into the central and southern part of the Golden State. Electrical power outages were reported in the Grapevine area 70 miles northwest of Los Angeles. The National Weather Service issued gale warnings for the Southern California coastline and posted flash flood watches. At least 11 people have died statewide in the storms and high tides this week, according to updated figures released by the state Friday. The state said 1,964 people have been forced to leave their homes. The storms have damaged 2,660 homes -- destroying 24 of them -- and have damaged 496 businesses, the state said. Preliminary damage figures from several hard-hit areas Friday neared $60 million, and authorities said the total could rise much higher. AFTER THURSDAY'S onslaught from the Pacific Ocean, Gov. George Deukmejian declared the counties of Los Angeles, San Diego, Marin and San Mateo disaster areas. "The potential for additional flooding this Friday, Saturday and Sunday is great," said forecasters for the National Weather Service, who expected the new storm to be the most intense of the series. Sun Attack # Snow hits Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas Associated Press 2/2/83 Blinding snow and gusting winds left drifts up to 10 feet deep in places across the Texas Panhandle, Oklahoma and Kansas on Tuesday, blocking roads, shutting schools and halting industry. The storm system also spread snow in Colorado and rain and tornadoes that damaged property and flooded streets in Mobile, Ala. and Florida. No deaths or injuries were reported from the weather Tuesday, but on Monday the storms claimed seven lives -- five on Texas highways and two in Louisiana tornadoes. "IT'S JUST REAL BAD," said Lynne Holt of the Dalhart Police Department in the Texas Panhandle. "People's cattle have been walking over fences and getting out, and several were killed by the train before snow shut it down." Typical of the snowbound communities was Liberal, Kan., a city of 14,000 people on the Oklahoma border where more than a foot of snow fell Tuesday and gusty winds up to 35 mph blew snowdrifts 6 feet deep across the roads. "We took a city plow into a residential area this morning with an ambulance behind it to get a woman out who was going to deliver," said Liberal Police Chief Rich Kistner. "We got her to the hospital in time." Kistner, who said visibility was "down to about zero" and that most businesses had closed at his request, did not know the woman's name. The hospital refused comment. Snow depths around Kansas included 12 inches in Concordia, 11 inches at Russell and Salina, and 9 inches in Topeka, where Kansas Gov. John Carlin sent state workers home before noon and the Legislature halted work. IN WICHITA, UP TO 8 INCHES of snow fell, and the transit authority in Wichita suspended bus service after 28 of its 48 buses got stuck. The three major aircraft plants told workers to stay home, and mail delivery was cancelled. Several colleges called off classes. Schools were closed in many communities across Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Nebraska and Texas. Highway conditions were hazardous in parts of Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and in the Oklahoma and Texas panhandles. "We have drifts 8 to 10 feet deep in some places, and 10 inches of snow on the level," said sheriff's dispatcher Merrill Buckles in Potter County, Texas, just north of Amarillo, where accumulations reached 10 inches Tuesday. "The roads and highways are open, but we're having a lot of accidents." Amarillo International Airport was closed because of the storm, and there was no mail delivery scheduled in the city of 150,000. Pantex, a huge nuclear weapons assembly plant near Amarillo, was shut down for the first time in nine years because of the weather. SNOWDRIFTS UP TO 10 FEET deep were reported in Amarillo, where volunteers used four-wheel-drive vehicles to take nurses and other workers to hospitals. Drifts 5 feet deep were reported in the Oklahoma Panhandle, and snow and rain spread across the rest of the state. Most panhandle roads were closed. Despite the hazardous driving conditions, no major problems were reported, Oklahoma Highway Patrol Lt. Frank Hoff said, "because no one is moving." "We saw what was coming... so we shut traffic down early enough to prevent too many motorists from being stranded," said Marvin Noyes, a highway patrol dispatcher in Guymon, Okla. He said several people were rescued from stalled cars after drifts closed roads overnight. In Missouri, forecasters said another 4 to 8 inches of snow would fall before the storm ended, bringing accumulations over a foot. Nebraska was hit by the edge of the storm system, with up to 8 inches of snow and drifts up to 3 feet deep in Pawnee City and Tecumseh. THE STORM SYSTEM STRETCHED as far as northwestern Florida, bringing two tornadoes, high winds and heavy rain. No injuries or serious damage was reported. "We heard the roar and then all of a sudden we saw roofs and sheds and buildings flying," said Douglas Long of Pensacola. "Somebody's boat came flying through the air from I don't know where and went through the side of my barn." In Mobile, Ala., officials said a tornado touched down several times along a 5-mile path early Tuesday, damaging several homes and businesses and briefly knocking out power to 3,500 customers. More than 4 inches of rain fell, causing minor street flooding. === Page 47 of 92 7-14-82 Oreg Journal # Communications hit by major solar flare BOULDER, Colo. (UPI) -- A major solar flare and the most intense proton shower in the past decade is disrupting long-range communications worldwide and lighting up skies from coast to coast with "vivid red" Northern Lights. Pat McIntosh, solar forecaster with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Tuesday said high-energy protons from the X-7 flare would disrupt long-range communications on Earth for the next several days. Meteorologists in Detroit said the brilliant spectacle was visible from there as far east as Cleveland. The lights prompted calls by alarmed observers to radio stations. "It's so bright, a vivid red, we thought it was a forest fire," one caller told a Chicago radio station late Tuesday. McIntosh said the flare occurred at 2:14 a.m. (PDT) Monday. The proton event started almost immediately and caused a geomagnetic storm that began at 9:18 a.m. (PDT) Tuesday. The proton event, the largest since 1972, was expected to last about three days. The official said more flares Wednesday or Thursday could make the storm's impact on Earth more intense. He said the storm was affecting high-frequency communications and low-frequency navigational systems operating in or through the polar cap, as well as amateur radio activities.

(UPI) -- The largest solar flare since July 1978 may create an aurora borealis over northern Colorado Monday night, officials at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said Sunday. Patrick S. McIntosh, a solar astronomer with the NOAA Air Force Space and Environments Service, said the flare "went off the scale and was interpolated as an X-12." The flare occurred at 16:37 universal time, 10:37 a.m. MDT, in the southeast quadrant of the sun. Forecasters expected magnetic disturbances to reach the Earth by Monday afternoon. NOAA astronomers say there is a 60 percent chance of an aurora borealis in the Boulder area Monday evening. Solar flares are rated partly by their release of X-radiation, measured on a scale from 1 to 10. 6-7-82 6-17-82 # Northern lights may be seen The aurora borealis may be visible from Oregon beginning Thursday as the result of a huge flare on the sun Tuesday. When the protons from the flare reach Earth Thursday, they also may disrupt communications, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in Boulder, Colo. For best viewing of the northern lights, "go to some place where there's a dark northeastern sky," Dwight Gruber, Oregon Museum of Science and Industry planetarium program producer, advised Wednesday. "As soon as it's dark," he said, "simply start looking. There's no way to tag the time the show begins." The lights, he explained, "are visible all the time, if you go far enough north." # Flood toll climbs to 275 TOKYO (AP) -- The death toll from flooding and landslides in southwestern Japan reached 275 Tuesday and rescue workers searched through mud and rubble for 87 other people missing and presumed dead. Seven bodies washed up to the waterfront at Nagasaki harbor. They apparently had been carried out to sea by rivers swollen by rain that fell at a rate of 4.6 inches an hour Saturday. A total of 16-22 inches of rain fell on Kyushu from Friday night to early Saturday, ending a 40-day drought with lightning quick flash flooding and mud slides throughout the hilly area. # China UFO Sun Attack # Horse dies on street NEW YORK (AP) -- A carriage horse that collapsed and died on a Manhattan street near the entrance to Central Park apparently had not been mistreated.

Snow and ice stalled travelers on glazed highways from New Mexico to Nebraska. At least seven people were killed in weather-related accidents as almost 15 inches of rain in two days sent rivers washing out of their banks in Louisiana, Texas and Mississippi. A Greyhound bus skidded off icy Interstate 80 near Kearney, Neb., injuring 25 people, and snow, freezing rain, sleet and drizzle caused hundreds of accidents from El Paso, Texas, to Omaha, Neb. "We've had just a tremendous number of accidents," said deputy police chief Gary Crinklaw in Omaha. "We're asking everybody to stay home unless they absolutely have to go out." The 3,900 residents of Broken Bow, Neb., were left virtually isolated when 8 inches of snow fell on top of 15 inches deposited over the weekend. The snow driven by 30-mph winds blocked all of the roads into town. "Normal Nebraska winter blizzard," said Ron Baker, a police dispatcher in Broken Bow. A blizzard warning was issued for southwest and north-central Nebraska and ramps along Interstate 80 were closed by snowdrifts. Residents of snowbound Denver were urged to stay home until the snow could be cleared from a record Christmas Eve blizzard that left 6-foot drifts. Massive traffic jams developed and delays continued at Stapleton International Airport where only two runways were open and hundreds of travelers were stranded. About 200 travelers spent the night in churches and the courthouse in Dalhart, Texas, as up to 7 inches of snow fell on West Texas and the Panhandle, with Lubbock getting 7 inches and El Paso 5 inches. Eastern New Mexico got up to 8 inches. At least 1,000 people were evacuated from their homes in Louisiana, mainly in the Monroe and Alexandria areas, and at least 50 roads were blocked by high water. In northern Louisiana, flood warnings were posted in 11 parishes along the Tensas River. Hundreds of others fled in northern Mississippi and southeastern Texas. Forecasters promised no sunshine soon. "There's no relief in sight for Louisiana for at least another day," said Nolan Duke, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Kansas City.

Flash flood watches were posted for all of Arkansas and Illinois and the southern and eastern sections of Missouri, the states which suffered more than half a billion dollars in damage from high water earlier this month. Tornadoes were sighted Monday afternoon in central Mississippi near Hazlehurst and in Jackson, and the Weather Service warned of more possible tornadoes and severe thunderstorms. Tornadoes also were reported in Louisiana, causing damage at Gilbert, about 10 miles south of Winnsboro, Cottonport and Mansura in Avoyelles Parish; and Pine Prairie in Evangeline Parish. A tornado watch was issued for 25 counties in central and western Tennessee, along with a flash flood watch. Some roads in central Tennessee and west of Nashville were closed by flooding but no injuries were reported. In the Beaumont and Port Arthur areas of Texas, the storm dropped 13 inches of rain and the Hildebrandt Acres residential area was evacuated. The southeastern Texas town of Bridge City near the Louisiana border was cut off by flooding on Texas 87. In northern Mississippi, rescuers used boats and four-wheel drive vehicles to evacuate flood victims. Civil Defense officials said about 70 families had left their homes in Grenada, about 15 homes were evacuated in Calhoun City and other evacuations were under way in Greenwood, Tupelo and other communities. "This has been the wettest December ever," said Bill Knight of the weather service in Jackson, Miss. The Mississippi Highway Patrol said high water had closed highways near Batesville, Tupelo, Coffeeville, Ripley and Corinth. Myrna Tilghman, who on Sunday fled her home in a Grenada subdivision near Bogue Creek - along with her husband, three children, and 49 neighbors - said, "By Sunday afternoon the water was in the attic." About 14½ inches of rain had fallen in Alexandria in central Louisiana since late Saturday and parts of southwest Louisiana had received about 10 inches, with forecasters predicting another 3 to 6 inches. Joe Colson, head of Louisiana's Office of Emergency Preparedness, said about 250 people had to leave their homes in Alexandria, some taken out in city buses equipped with makeshift snorkels for their exhaust pipes. "I saw well over 200 houses with their floors under water," Colson said. National Guardsmen went into lower Allen Parish late Monday to evacuate about 400 residents from small communities along the Calcasieu River. National Guardsmen and deputies patrolled neighborhoods to guard against looting and vandalism. About 800 people in Monroe, La., were evacuated Sunday, including 180 elderly residents of the West Monroe Guest House. === Page 49 of 92 UFOs Sun Attack Spokane, Wash., Sa.

In a statement broadcast Monday night, President Ali Abdullah Saleh of North Yemen said he personally was following relief efforts of emergency rescue teams drawn from the army and police, and appealed to citizens to "help the hundreds hurt and buried under the debris." Hospitals in San'a, the capital, and other major cities were reported crowded with casualties brought in from outlying areas. Most homes in North Yemen, a mountainous country of about 8 million people on the Arabian Peninsula, are built of sun-baked bricks. The Bahrain-based news service, quoting an unidentified source in a hastily formed rescue committee in North Yemen, said there were 335 people killed in the city of Jahran. It said 300 casualties were taken to one hospital at another unnamed locality, including at least 13 dead. The report said at least 79 villages suffered "gross damages" when the quake struck at around noon local time. Neighboring South Yemen announced a three-day period of official mourning for the quake victims and said it was sending an emergency medical relief team, headed by Health Minister Abdullah Bukeir, to help in rescue efforts. The tremor was said to have caused "a major rift" in one mountain, and further shocks could not be ruled out, the news agency said. The Saudi press agency quoted a North Yemen meteorological agency spokesman as saying the quake registered between 3 and 4 on the Richter scale, a quake with the capacity of causing slight to moderate damage. But the U.S. Geological Survey's Earthquake Information Center at Golden, Colo., recorded the quake at 6.0 on the scale, capable of causing severe damage.

But C. Dan Miller and other scientists stressed at a news conference that no one is predicting an eruption in this community along the eastern slopes of the Sierra Nevada, across the mountains from Yosemite National Park. "Our level of concern (about volcanoes) is above our level before this... earthquake swarm," Miller said. "That's a very general statement." Small quakes continued to jolt the region 200 miles east of San Francisco and 250 miles north of Los Angeles for the third straight day Saturday. "We're all wondering just what's going on at depth (several miles beneath the surface) and just what the mechanisms are" that produced the quakes that began Thursday afternoon, said geologist Roger Martin of the California Department of Mines and Geology. "The low-level seismic activity is persisting, with frequent small magnitude earthquakes," said geophysicist Mark Zoback at the U.S. Geological Survey offices in Menlo Park. "There have been several felt earthquakes, approximate magnitude 3 to 3.5 (on the Richter scale), in the last 24 hours, but there have no been larger events such as those which occurred Thursday night," he said, referring to quakes measured at 5.5 and 5.6. Zoback said scientists expect the low-level activity to continue, but don't see that as a danger sign. "These things persist for a few days," he said. "We imagine it will go on for a while. But we have no information that indicates the situation is becoming more hazardous." Scientists had been concerned that similar previous earthquake swarms and other geologic changes might reflect molten rock moving several miles beneath the ground. Most agree that an impending volcanic eruption is possible, but no one has predicted one. "Nothing has changed. We have no way of forecasting whether anything might happen," Miller said. The latest swarm of quakes began Thursday afternoon and continued well into Friday, hitting at a rate of more than one a minute. While most were too small to be felt, two moderate tremors late Thursday did minor damage at Mammoth Lakes and caused the collapse of a hangar on a private plane at the nearby airport. Miller, who was coordinating the scientific research on the snowy slopes from a communications center at the Mammoth Lakes Fire Department, said crews were trudging through the deep snow to remeasure survey lines, check for bulges in the earth, and look for new hot springs and steam vents. One crew, heading out in an enclosed vehicle with steel tracks like an Army tank, was from the University of California at Santa Barbara. Led by geologist Art Sylvester, the team went into the "epicentral area" about two miles east of Mammoth Lakes where much seismic activity has been located. The latest swarm was also near the area. Team member Ken Gester said the group, which also includes Michael Bunis and Elizabeth Nixon, will be "looking for relative elevational differences - tilts in the surface." He said UCSB students planted benchmarks, steel rods anchored in bedrock, last year. Wearing snowshoes, the crew will dig away the snow, and use surveyors' gear to seek minute changes in the elevation. Gester said the assumption has been that such tilts indicate molten rock is moving beneath the surface, "but no one really knows." Week's news in review Local/regional The first blizzard of the season dumped 16 1/2 inches of snow on the Twin Cities Tuesday and winds gusting to 40 mph created drifts 6 to 8 feet deep, halting car, bus, train, and air traffic. At least 16 people died in Minnesota as a result of the snow, 11 them heart attacks in the metropolitan area and others in traffic accidents. Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport not only had to close because its aircraft taxi lanes were blocked but lightning knocked out electricity until auxiliary generators could take over hours later. Quake toll hits 1,448 MANAMA, Bahrain (AP) - Search parties found the bodies of 108 more earthquake victims Thursday in North Yemen, raising the confirmed death toll to 1,448. They also rescued 57 injured survivors more than 72 hours after the killer quake wrecked more than 200 villages, the official Yemeni radio reported. Radio San'a, broadcasting from the Yemeni capital, reported Prime Minister Abdul-Karim el-Iriani informed President Ali Abdullah Saleh that 1,489 of the injured were hospitalized, many in serious condition. Health Minister Mohamed al-Kibab warned of a growing danger of epidemics "because an undetermined number of people are still under the rubble." Diplomats in San'a predicted the death toll would be more than 2,000. Radio San'a said rescue parties "at many points could not proceed with the search for survivors because of the moving the stench of death." With some areas still isolated because of quake damage to the desert country's primitive roads and communication facilities, Iriani said 66 more villages were found to have suffered extensive damage, bringing the total in that category to 253. Medical teams, medicine and other supplies poured in from abroad. Saudi Arabia has sent in 45 flights, most of them giant C-130 transport planes, loaded with supplies. King Fahd pledged $35 million in aid. A medical staff of 72 arrived from West Germany, and 40 came from Switzerland. They brought search dogs that found 12 bodies in their first day of operations, the health minister said. Two U.N. planes arrived with provisions Thursday, two each came from Jordan and the United Arab Emirates, and one from Libya. The country was jolted early Thursday by four tremors of "medium intensity." === Page 51 of 92 UFOs Sun Attack # Hundreds flee as rains break dams, flooding some towns Associated Press Spok Rev 12/6/82 Days of rain sent rivers surging to record levels Sunday in the Mississippi Valley from Illinois to Louisiana, forcing hundreds to flee as dams broke and water poured chest-deep through some towns. A week of stormy weather punctuated by rare late fall tornadoes claimed about 40 lives in the nation, including 18 who died when hurricane-force winds and snowstorms hit the West. It was another day of shirt-sleeve weather in December in many northern cities, with record high temperatures in the mid-60s in Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and Buffalo, N.Y. It was 73 in Atlantic City, N.J., and 75 at Richmond, Va. Bloated rivers climbed as much as 12 feet above flood stage in the central states, reaching the highest mark ever in Illinois cities such as La Salle in the northern part of the state and Green Valley south of Peoria. Residents of several communities were filling sandbags to try to hold back the water. Some hired rental trucks, getting ready to flee. In Calumet City, Ill., where about 60 people were evacuated, people blamed their chest-deep water on the residents of adjacent Ham- (Continued on page 2) UFO Sun Attack # Boy dies in West Side storm Associated Press Spok Rev 12/17/82 A 5-year-old boy was swept away and drowned Thursday in a creek swollen by a storm that raked Western Washington, toppling trees and knocking out power to thousands of people. Wyatt Thompson of Joyce, west of Port Angeles, Wash., drowned Thursday morning in Whiskey Creek, said Clallam County Sheriff Steven Kernes. The boy and two other youngsters were walking across a log over the creek when he slipped and fell "into what usually is just a very shallow stream," Kernes said. "He was washed away." About 25 volunteer firefighters and residents of the area west of Port Angeles joined several sheriff's deputies in the search. Within 45 minutes they found the boy wedged under-water about 200 yards downstream, Kernes said. A Coast Guard helicopter took the child to Olympic Memorial Hospital in Port Angeles, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. Repair crews throughout Western Washington spent the day repairing downed lines. Chain saws cut toppled trees into fireplace logs. Another rain and wind storm stood just off the coast Thursday evening, ready to batter the area again, said the National Weather Service. Though it was not expected to be as fierce as the previous night's blow, the new storm packed heavy rain and winds up about 39 mph, said Freeman Stickney, a Weather Service spokesman in Seattle. The new storm ## Boy rescued from Oregon flood -- Page 17 also carried high tides, which caused much of Thursday's flooding, including waterfront homes on Puget Sound in West Seattle. At the Grays Harbor bar, waves 20 to 25 feet high were forecast Thursday night, decreasing to 12 to 17 feet by Friday night. Turbulent seas and low pressure were creating tides a foot to 1½ feet higher than tide books predicted, raising another threat to property along beaches and banks. At least 40 homes were flooded along coastal areas of Whatcom County, said Larry Voshall, state Department of Emergency Services assistant director. Most damage was caused by high tides rather than flooding rivers, he said. The Chehalis River was expected to crest at 4 a.m. Friday at one foot above flood stage at Centralia, which will flood only pastures, Voshall said. About 1,350 customers remained without electricity at Thursday evening, from the Canadian border to Olympia, said Dave Adams of Puget Sound Power & Light Co. He said power was restored to about 400 customers in the suburbs east of Seattle about nightfall, but 1,200 others in north Kitsap County were unlikely to get their lights turned back on before midnight. At the height of the storm, as many as 100,000 customers were without electricity, he said. Puget Power serves about 560,000 customers in nine Western Washington Counties. Crews throughout Western Washington cleared logs and fallen trees from roads and untangled branches from power lines. Cars crept through floorboard-high water in some underpasses. The Hoh River on the Olympic Peninsula washed out Jefferson County Road 216 Thursday morning before receding. Pieces of "Pac Man" and other video games littered a large area in Birch Bay near the Canadian border, where overnight winds up to 80 mph tore up a video game arcade. === Page 52 of 92 UFOs "Sun" Attack Spokane, Wash., Sat., Dec. 4, 1982. THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW # Storms leave 10 dead Associated Press Three more tornadoes slammed into Arkansas on Friday and a child drowned in swirling floodwaters on the second day of storms that have killed at least 10 people in the Mississippi River Valley. As many as four people were reported missing in Illinois. Temperature records toppled in Michigan and Florida as a heat wave reached from the Gulf of Mexico to Canadian border states that are more used to snow this time of year. The weather set wetness records, too - Michigan got more than 3 inches of rain in a 24-hour period, breaking a record for December. High winds knocked an 80-foot hole in the wall of a company in Lowell, Ind., that makes storm doors and windows and a tornado tore the roofs from several houses Friday morning in Eunice, La. "Get to the high ground," Arkansas Gov. Frank White exhorted state residents Friday as parts of 15 towns in the state were evacuated because of flooding. Torrential rains submerged the downtown section of Clinton, Ark., under 7 feet of water, the governor said. Damage was severe, but no monetary estimates had been made. "I don't know of any time we've seen so much devastation so fast," White said. One child drowned Friday as a family was flooded out near the Arkansas town of Deberry, Perry County sheriff's dispatcher Stan Wallace said four other members of the unidentified family had hung onto trees while rescuers in three boats tried to reach them. The family was rescued later in the day, officials said. Gov. James Thompson of Illinois declared a disaster area in a county where a tornado making a freak late-autumn appearance killed two people and injured scores more Thursday night. A 3-day-old heat wave broke new records Friday. The city of Buffalo, N.Y., often buried under snow in December, had a temperature of 72 degrees Friday, breaking a 61-degree record for the date set in 1951. The temperature reached 67 degrees Friday at Jackson, Mich., breaking the record for the date of 62 degrees, set in 1973. It was 87 degrees Friday in Orlando, Fla., breaking an 85-degree mark set for the date in 1968. More than 3 inches of rain fell on Muskegon in the 24-hour period ending at 5 a.m. Friday, breaking the old 24-hour record for December of 1.82 inches set Dec. 10, 1971. High winds in Oregon knocked out power to about 350 homes in Clatsop County, and felled trees blocked some roads. Tornadoes swept up the Mississippi Valley on Thursday night, killing five people, splintering more than 100 mobile homes and damaging other buildings in Illinois, Arkansas and Missouri. "I hit the floor and curled up," said Air Force Sgt. Steve Tordson of New Baden, Ill., who had just checked to see if rain was coming in the windows on his mobile home when the glass was shattered by a tornado Thursday night. "I didn't move until the pulling and tugging and everything else was over. "From what I could see by the lightning flashes, there were only two walls left standing," Tordson spoke as he huddled in a blanket at a school gym where a dozen homeless people spent the night. ## 15 towns are evacuated in Arkansas. UFOs Sun Attack # High winds hit state Associated Press A fast moving unseasonably warm storm front caused widespread minor damage to Western Washington Friday, knocking down power lines and pushing rivers over their banks. Brief power outages were reported in many areas and several rivers went over flood stage. In King County, homeowners complaining of flooding in yards and driveways were told to clear out their storm drains, many of which were clogged by leaves. The National Weather Service said a cold front entering the western side of the state in the evening would force the snow level down to 3,000 feet Saturday, and quench the storm's effects. Winds gusted to 60 mph in some locations west of the Cascades, and one to three inches of rain were reported in lowland areas by the weather service. In the mountains, the freezing level soared to 8,000 feet Friday, with up to five inches of rain. The storm swept into Eastern Washington Friday afternoon, although the immediate effects were limited to high winds. Wind warnings were in effect Friday evening for coastal counties, and for the counties of Benton, Franklin, Yakima, Kittitas, Grant and Douglas in Eastern Washington.

But December turned to spring in many Northern cities. The 40,000 residents of Casper, Wyo., awoke to find 22.5 inches of snow on the ground, just 4 inches short of the record for the month of December in that city. Highways and schools were closed and schools shut down in many areas across the state. Tornadoes hit southern Missouri, destroying or damaging 25 to 30 homes in Mountain Grove and at least two homes in rural Crawford County. At least 10 people were injured. In Arkansas, twisters hit western Little Rock, Alexandria, North Little Rock, Arkadelphia, Hopewell and the town of Alma near Fort Smith. One person was killed in a mobile home park near Alexandria, and another person died on the western side of Little Rock when a piece of metal ripped through the windshield of the car he was driving. Winds damaged homes, businesses and schools. Tornadoes in Little Rock damaged Parkview High School and hit near the Williamsburg Nursing Home, knocking out most of the windows in the three-story building as nurses rolled patients into the hallways. Two cars near the nursing home caught fire. Another twister destroyed one home and damaged three others in Alma, Ark., as a storm roared through on Thursday, downing power lines and washing out at least three bridges. The storm that swept out of the Pacific across California on Tuesday, dumping snow neck deep in the mountains, also spread heavy snow Thursday across the northern high plains into eastern Montana and western South Dakota. But it was like squirting whipped cream on a warm and moist pie. Christmas shoppers in cities such as Chicago, Minneapolis and Cleveland shed their coats and sweaters as the mercury climbed toward the 70-degree mark, setting records for this time of year. In Ohio, record temperatures were set in Toledo, where it was 68 degrees; Zanesville, 69; Cleveland, 70; Columbus, 71; and Marietta, 67. Before noon it was already 69 in the Windy City, seven degrees warmer than the record for Dec. 2. It also was wet. Heavy rains caused power outages affecting 3,000 homes and businesses in the northern suburbs. Golfers in Des Moines, Iowa, were out in their shirt sleeves on courses that are usually closed by this time of year. # Good Morning. UFO Sun Attack Today is SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1982.

Up to 5 inches of rain pushed streams out of their banks in parts of eastern Texas, southern Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana. Snow, sleet and freezing rain made driving treacherous in much of eastern New Mexico, the Texas Panhandle, eastern Oklahoma and most of Kansas. The Sulphur River at Hagansport, Texas, about 80 miles northeast of Dallas, was about 4 feet above flood stage and still climbing and a tornado touched down in the central Louisiana. (Continued on page 17) 11/26/82 # Hawaii declared a disaster area HONOLULU (AP) -- President Reagan declared Hawaii a disaster area Saturday as a nuclear-powered submarine docked to help restore power to one island blacked out by the worst hurricane on record to hit the Pacific paradise. The attack submarine USS Indianapolis was pressed into service as a floating electric generator for the island of Kauai, where 39,000 residents had been without power since Tuesday night when Hawaii's first major hurricane in 23 years left almost $200 million in damage. But even with the sub plugged into one of the island's three generating plants, utility officials said it probably would be two to three weeks before full service was restored. "We'd like to try to get 90 percent of the system up in two weeks," said Kelvin Kai, transmission and distribution manager of Kauai Electric Co. Damages to private and public property on Kauai and on the more populous island of Oahu have been estimated by disaster officials at about $160 million, and military officials say Army facilities may have sustained an additional $30 million in damage. The Red Cross said Iwa's 110-mph winds destroyed 180 homes on Oahu and Kauai, and an additional 934 sustained major damage. Nearly 1,500 had minor damage. Dick Sasaki of the National Weather Service in Honolulu said damage was "much, much worse" than that left by Hurricane Dot in 1959. # Snow storm -- (Continued from page 1) town of Alexandria. There were no immediate reports of damage. In New Mexico, the bodies of two people who apparently died of exposure were found Saturday, officials said. Esther Redwine, 56 was found dead near her house in Lea County, near the New Mexico-Texas border, by her son-in-law, according to Capt. Paul Mallory of the Lea County sheriff's office. "It appears this lady was on her way to the house and apparently fell ... and froze to death," he said. State police said a man who was looking for aluminum cans found the body of an unidentified man along U.S. highway 666 about five miles north of Gallup. The body of another unidentified man was found during rough weather along the highway three days earlier, on Thanksgiving Day. The freezing rain that swept across central and southeast Kansas turned roads into icy ribbons, causing numerous accidents. Sleet accumulated a quarter of an inch deep at Coldwater, Kan. Three people were killed and three others were injured about 11 a.m. in an accident southeast of Emporia, the Kansas Highway Patrol said. The crash occurred on the icy Kansas 130 bridge over the Neosho River just north of Hartford, but no other details were immediately available. Three people injured in another accident on Interstate 135 in Salina, Kan., were listed in critical condition at St. John's Hospital. New Mexico state police were discouraged travel in most areas of the southern and in the northeastern parts of the state. UFO's in "Attack" # Hawaii sunny again, but hurricane damage put at $160 million 11/26/82 HONOLULU (AP) -- Tourists packed sunny beaches Thursday, but many Hawaii residents returned to homes and businesses ruined by the punishing winds of Hurricane Iwa. Damage was estimated at $160 million and a civil defense spokesman said it was "probably the worst disaster we've had short of war." Most of the hard-hit island of Kauai was still without electricity, water and telephone service, and authorities sought help from the Navy. Parts of Oahu, the most populous island, also were without water. Tanker trucks rolled in to help replenish the supply, and Honolulu Mayor Eileen Anderson urged residents to conserve water because of limited power to pumping stations. The brunt of the first hurricane to hit Hawaii in 23 years struck Kauai, Oahu and the tiny, privately owned island of Niihau on Tuesday night with winds up to 110 mph. High waves wiped out cottages and pounded luxury condominiums along the shore at Poipu, on Kauai. A 40-foot Coast Guard utility boat and 14 other vessels were sunk in the island's Nawiliwili Harbor. The Navy lost several vessels at Port Allen, part of the world's largest submarine tracking station. More than 100 people were treated for minor injuries, but the only reported death was a sailor washed off the 4,500-ton guided missile destroyer USS Goldsborough by a 30-foot wave. Flattened trees, toppled utility poles and debris stripped from houses littered the streets as more than 7,000 people evacuated on Oahu and Kauai returned to begin cleaning up. Hotels struggled with flooded garages and sporadic power blackouts. === Page 55 of 92 UFO Sun Attack Spokane, Wash., Wed., Dec. 8, 1982. THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW # Floods continue; volunteers hustle to shore up levees Associated Press Devastating floods that have driven 26,000 people from their homes in the Mississippi Valley surged downstream Tuesday as National Guardsmen and volunteers hustled to shore up river levees. Damage estimates from the flooding touched off by storms in the region late last week approached the half-billion dollar mark. At least 20 people had been killed by tornadoes and floods and four were missing. About 20,000 residents remained in evacuation shelters Tuesday in Missouri as rivers crested at levels reached only about once every hundred years, officials said. National Guardsmen patrolled the St. Louis suburbs of Arnold, Times Beach and St. Charles to guard against looting. More evacuations were ordered in Arkansas. Illinois Gov. James R. Thompson declared six counties -- mainly in the northern part of the state -- disaster areas Tuesday and warned that "the worst is not over." Missouri Gov. Christopher Bond, estimating damage in his state at $150 million, said he would ask President Reagan for federal assistance to 22 counties declared disaster areas. Arkansas Gov. Frank White has asked for disaster aid for 37 counties since Friday. Jack Dubose of the state Office of Emergency Services said a preliminary estimate of damage in his state totaled about $268 million and added, "This is just a start. We expect that to continue to climb." In Missouri, the Meramec River crested Tuesday at about 20 feet above flood stage at Arnold, just south of St. Louis, driving families out of about 300 more homes. National Guard troops and equipment were sent to Herculaneum and Ste. Genevieve to reinforce levees along the Mississippi. About 140 Guardsmen were on duty with others held in reserve. Still others were on alert for possible duty in southern Missouri. The water was receding in some areas, but was rising downstream. In east-central Arkansas, officials were evacuating 300 to 400 people from the rural areas of Maddox Bay, Indian Bay, East Lake and Green Lake, all about 20 miles south of Clarendon. Emergency centers were set up in Holly Grove to house about 1,250 people. Charlie Koltz, who was evacuated from his farmhouse near Times Beach, Mo., about midnight Sunday said, "My most dramatic moment was hearing a man screaming for help as he was swept by at about 30 mph, clinging to a log in the river. We never did learn what happened to him." Chuck Jones of the state Emergency and Disaster Agency in Illinois said the Illinois River was expected to go over retaining walls when it crests Wednesday at Peoria. === Page 56 of 92 10 THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW Thurs., Dec. 9, 1982, Spokane, Wash. # Mississippi Valley towns buried in mud Associated Press Floods that have chased more than 35,000 people from their homes in the Mississippi Valley gushed into new territory Wednesday while receding waters in some areas left entire towns a muddy mess with cars and debris piled against houses and trees. TORRENTIAL RAINS late last week caused flooding that has left at least 20 dead and four missing in Illinois, Missouri and Arkansas, with preliminary damage estimates topping half a billion dollars. Winds gusting to hurricane force Wednesday knocked out the power to 143,000 households in Southern California and blew cars off icy Interstate 80 in Utah, where up to 15 inches of snow fell in places. A blast of Arctic air plunged temperatures below zero across much of Montana, North Dakota and northern Minnesota, and below freezing across the most of the other northern states from New England to the Pacific Northwest. FREEZING DRIZZLE glazed broad areas from eastern New Mexico to northwest Illinois. Roads "like a sheet of ice" in the Oklahoma Panhandle caused many accidents. The Mississippi River on Wednesday lapped within inches of the top of a levee ringed with 3 feet of sandbags near St. Louis, and the Illinois River was expected to crest Thursday at 10.5 feet above flood stage in Peoria, Ill., just inches short of the level in record flooding in 1943. "If we get any more rain, we can just forget it," said Roger Pritchett, inspecting the Mississippi levee in a light drizzle just above the confluence of the Missouri River near St. Louis. THE NATION'S MIGHTIEST river is expected to crest about 14 feet over flood stage below St. Louis on Friday. Although many have since returned home while others are getting out, officials estimated that so far 25,000 people had been displaced in Missouri, 8,500 in Illinois and about 2,000 in Arkansas. Some of the 2,200 residents of Times Beach, Mo., near St. Louis started returning home Wednesday, but they left their children in emergency shelters. "We don't want people going in with little children and finding a living room full of snakes," said Susan Van Almsick, a spokeswoman for the county. Little was left to salvage in some of the homes. "This was all I was able to find," said Ron Wilson, holding up a jar of pennies." As he spoke, the jar slipped from his grasp and shattered on the pavement. ABOUT 150 STUDENTS from Southern Illinois University were helping fill 60,000 sandbags to try to protect Kaskia Island near Peoria, Ill. Officials said almost 300,000 sandbags had been placed along Illinois rivers. "This kind of storm, the worst in a century, just overwhelms what man can do," said Illinois Gov. James R. Thompson. The Arkansas flooding is "far and away beyond anything that has hit the state," said Jack DuBose, a spokesman for the state Office of Emergency Services. Arkansas officials estimate the flood has caused about $323 million in property damages so far. The National Weather Service said the White River in Monroe County in eastern Arkansas would crest at about 33 feet Saturday -- 6 feet above flood stage. Another 300 to 400 country residents were being evacuated, Deputy Sheriff Frank Newby said. MISSOURI VOLUNTEERS worked through the night to reinforce levees in Herculaneum and Ste. Genevieve. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers closed St. Louis harbor and a 43-mile stretch of the Mississippi to barge traffic because wakes from tows might damage flood levees. About 4,500 people in Illinois remained homeless, mostly in the Peoria area and southward, said E. Erie Jones, director of the Illinois Emergency Services and Disaster Agency. The flooding has affected southeastern Missouri and the eastern two-thirds of Arkansas. There has been only minor flooding so far in Mississippi and in Louisiana, where the river reaches the Gulf of Mexico. === Page 57 of 92 SPRING? - Not yet, but even the wildlife in Lincoln County enjoy the unseasonably warm weather that has descended on the Northwest.

Strains within the Reagan White House are growing prolifically. In the last several days, the president has lost two more members of his Cabinet. First it was Transportation Secretary Drew Lewis, who headed off for Warner Amex Cable Communications Inc., where he will be chairman of the board. Now Health and Human Services Secretary Richard Schweiker has left for a six-figure salary in the insurance business. Their departures bring to five the number of Cabinet and Cabinet-level losses the president has suffered in the past year. Earlier, national security adviser Richard Allen left amidst a storm of controversy, followed by an equally embattled Secretary of State Alexander Haig. Neither loss was mourned. The other Cabinet official choosing to walk down the road was Energy Secretary James Edwards. Now he is president of the Medical University of South Carolina and a member of the board of directors of Phillips Petroleum Co. The shake-up probably is not over. We hope it is not because of the officials most deserving expulsion, all are till around. In the three most recent cases, it's the wrong people who have left. No one is more deserving of early retirement than Interior Secretary James Watt. Watt is more suited to employment aboard a seal boat off the coast of Newfoundland than to a job involving wilderness protection. If he hurries, he can make it in time for the spring harvest of furry seal pups. CIA Director William Casey is another character we could do without in government service. The only time we hear of Casey is when some government agency investigates his shady business dealings (of which there have been many). His tarnished reputation has so damaged his credibility that he should have been dismissed early in the Reagan presidency. Last, but by no means least, there is Labor Secretary Ray Donovan, a man even more discredited than Casey. Donovan was cleared of allegations that he had ties to organized crime, but the long, drawn-out controversy permanently impaired his political effectiveness. We concur with the sentiments of White House chief of staff James Baker III that Donovan, as a service to the president, should pack his bags and leave. It will be interesting to see what repercussions, if any, spring from Baker's bold pronouncement. Baker, it generally is accepted, is not the darling of the White House staff. As a refugee of the Gerald Ford and George Bush camps, Baker is not altogether trusted by the president's cronies from California. He still is considered an outsider. Baker's comments could intensify the antagonism between White House moderates and conservatives, the newcomers and the old Reagan loyalists. All that's certain is that the higher the body count goes, the more chaotic and divided the White House will become. The cracks showing in the White House political foundation may be a mere prelude to a cataclysmic explosion which could seal the fate of the Reagan presidency. # EPA chief facing charges of lying resigns her post WASHINGTON (AP) -- Rita M. Lavelle, a top official at the Environmental Protection Agency who was accused of lying under oath to Congress, abruptly resigned Friday. Lavelle, one of the agency's assistant administrators, was facing a possible investigation into her testimony concerning an EPA whistleblower, Hugh Kaufman. She had denied under oath to a House Science and Technology subcommittee that she had ordered an investigation of Kaufman or that she had said she would like to fire him. However, the committee produced an affidavit from Richard M. Campbell, EPA's former assistant inspector general, in which he said Lavelle had requested his office to investigate Kaufman. "Lavelle advised both myself and (Inspector General Matthew) Novick that she wished to fire Mr. Kaufman and she hoped that we could accommodate her request for an investigation," Campbell said in his affidavit. Subcommittee Chairman James Scheuer, D-N.Y., said later that he was "leaning heavily" toward asking the Justice Department to prosecute Lavelle on perjury charges. In a short statement announcing her resignation, Lavelle made no reference to the Kaufman case. "I have accomplished what I set out to do -- get the agency's hazardous waste and Superfund programs started and on good footing," she said. "Having met this goal, I am ready to get back to California." Scheuer said in a statement he believed his subcommittee had prepared a "strong case for perjury."

The leaders privately expressed the fear that the president's remarks could jeopardize a new round of spending cuts being debated in the Congress, as well as a series of fiscally austere domestic spending bills soon to reach the floor of the House and Senate. Sen. Howard H. Baker Jr., R-Tenn., the majority leader, told reporters that he was "disturbed" by the president's statement, adding "It hardly seems the right time, with everything going on here." Baker expressed his misgivings in a telephone conversation with James A. Baker 3d, the White House chief-of-staff, but was unable to reach the president by telephone, according to an aide to the Senate leader. See 'Defense' -- Page 6 Rep. Robert H. Michel, R-Ill., the minority leader, told a closed meeting of the 192-member Republican caucus that "The fact remains that he isn't going to spend one dime more than is authorized and appropriated by the Congress." Michel also tried to reach the president by telephone, and finally expressed his misgivings in a letter to Reagan, according to an aide to the House leader.

"I don't know just how to approach this and tell you why we are late," the president said, a little sheepishly, to representatives of the National Health Fair programs. "In 18 months it never happened," he said. "What really scared me was when the gentleman who's been here for many many years, who was with us, said it never happened (before). We've been (between) here and the floor below in the elevator. We had plenty of time to get acquainted." The "we" were Secretary of Health and Human Services Richard Schweiker, Secretary of Education T.H. Bell, the president, elevator operator Freddy Mayfield and a Secret Service agent. Mayfield said the elevator actually had gotten stuck before between the ground floor and main first floor where the state dining room is. But never with a president aboard. The quintet spent a cozy five minutes in the elevator. "I asked the president what happened when the elevator stopped," said deputy press secretary Larry Speakes. "He said we looked at each other for a while and looked at the ceiling for while." The 200 or so people waiting for the president in the ornate dining room noticed only that the lights flickered for short periods. Later it was learned that a fire in a power station nearby had caused similar momentary problems in a wide area of Washington.

Mrs. Reagan's press secretary, Sheila Tate, said that the growth above the first lady's upper lip had been "adequately excised" and that no further treatment was required. The operation was performed Monday, about two months after Mrs. Reagan first discovered the problem and "kept thinking it would go away," according to Tate.

As a matter of practice, first ladies rarely use helicopters when they are traveling solo, even on official trips. Instead of making the journey by car, which takes about 90 minutes, the first lady took a helicopter round trip to inspect the presidential retreat in the Catoctin Mountains for the first time on Jan. 29, 1981. She was accompanied by her Los Angeles decorator, Ted Graber. A one-way helicopter trip to the isolated camp, about 60 miles from the nation's capital, takes 35 minutes and costs taxpayers $777.72. NANCY REAGAN That figure is based on an operating cost, provided by the White House, of $1,334 per hour for the VIP Marine helicopters that feature two airline-style upholstered chairs facing each other, sofa-like banks of seats on either side, and a bar. Mrs. Reagan made one-way helicopter trips last Sept. 10 and Oct. 29. Both times she was meeting her husband, who had flown a separate VIP helicopter to Camp David from Andrews Air Force Base following out-of-town trips. ON ALL THREE occasions, the president's wife boarded the helicopter at the Pentagon, rather than the White House South Lawn. Only the president -- or special guests on rare occasions -- depart from the White House. There is some question as to whether a first lady, who is not elected and has no constitutional duties, is entitled to taxpayer-subsidized helicopters for solo journeys, especially for purely personal, non-official trips. Mrs. Reagan's press secretary, Sheila Tate, said the first lady did not conduct official business at Camp David on the three occasions she flew there alone. But Mrs. Tate sought to extend to the first lady the presumption that all of her activities, even spending a relaxing weekend at Camp David with her husband, were somehow official. THAT IS TRUE for the president. The Justice Department considers all of his activities to be either official or political since he is commander-in-chief and responsible for national affairs 24 hours a day and so never really is "off-duty." Richard Hauser, a lawyer in the White House counsel's office, told The Associated Press that Mr. Reagan would be expected to reimburse the government for the cost of her helicopter travel if her activities were deemed "clearly personal or political." 11/15/82 UFOs attack "higher ups" Spok Rev 10/18/82 House panel looking at Watt's plane trips WASHINGTON (AP) -- A House committee is looking into Interior Secretary James Watt's alleged use of government airplanes for personal and political purposes, according to government sources. At the request of the House Government Operations Committee, the General Accounting Office is examining a number of trips taken by Watt on a King Air 200 plane assigned to an Interior Department firefighting unit in Idaho. On one trip to pick up Watt's son at Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Okla., over Memorial Day, 1981, one source said, the Interior Department was underbilled by $40,000. The Chicago Tribune reported over the weekend that Watt also used government planes to make political fund-raising trips to Western states, as well as to fly to a now-controversial "One Shot Antelope Hunt" in Wyoming. A GAO report now being drafted is expected to criticize the lack of specific regulations covering travel by Cabinet secretaries. Virtually no limits are now placed on their travel. In Watt's case, the secretary used a plane assigned to the Boise Interagency Fire Center for many trips, according to the forthcoming GAO report and testimony by GAO officials before the committee.

Federal prosecutors, who asked that their names not be used, said the shooting incident occurred Monday night and the charge was dismissed Wednesday after a conference with the State Department. Law enforcement sources described police and prosecutors involved as outraged that the law permits the ambassador's son to go free. Antonio da Silveira Jr. was arrested on a charge of assault with a dangerous weapon, which carries a maximum penalty of a 10-year prison term. According to a report filed by Washington police officer James P. Vines in city's Superior Court, da Silveira was in a bar called The Godfather, which features topless dancers, when he got into an argument Monday night with the manager. The ambassador's son pulled out two pistols and pulled the trigger on one, but it misfired, Vines continued. Bar employees chased da Silveira outside and he fired several shots, hitting an employee, Kenneth Skeen, in the hand, leg and abdomen, according to the police officer's report.

UFOs attack "higher ups" Spanish Communist boss quits Washington Post MADRID - Veteran Spanish Communist Santiago Carrillo, who was overwhelmingly rejected by voters in the Oct. 28 national elections, Saturday stepped down from the leadership of the party that he has run with iron discipline for 22 years. He resigned as party secretary general at a stormy executive committee meeting that was holding a post-mortem into the election rout. The Communist Party representation in the congress shrunk from the 23 seats it held after elections in 1979 to just four seats, and its percentage share of the national vote dropped from 10 to 3.8 percent. Carrillo proposed as his successor Gerardo Iglesias, 37, Communist leader of the coal mining Asturias region in northern Spain. Iglesias, who is largely unknown in national politics, served a five-year prison term under the late dictator Francisco Franco. He joined the party at the age of 15 when he was already a miner and has a long record as a party organizer in the pits. Carrillo, 67, had been under attack by hard-liners for veering too far from Moscow and by dovish dissidents who accused him of not practicing the internal democracy he preached. His total grip on the Spanish party has been sharply eroded and the party has become a drastically reduced power base. Last year, dozens of well known Communists, mostly lawyers, economists and members of other professions, left the party charging that Carrillo impeded the growth of a broad-based, moderate communist movement.

Friends and relatives of 33-year-old Dr. Judith Xiomara Suazo Estrada refused to say what her family was doing to obtain her release or if any contact had been made with the kidnappers. Her father, Honduran President Dr. Roberto Suazo Cordova, through a spokesman, respectfully asked reporters "not to speculate" on the case, and verify their information first before publishing it. A few minutes before Friday's 8 p.m. PST deadline set by the kidnappers for saving Mrs. Suazo Estrada, the government announced it was holding to its policy of "not negotiating with subversives." The terrorists, who did not identify themselves "for tactical reasons," kidnapped her on Dec. 13 as she was leaving the Guatemalan capital's San Juan De Dios General Hospital where she worked in the radiology department. Guatemalan security officials said they believed the kidnappers belonged to one of four leftist guerrilla organizations fighting for power in this Central American country but refused to disclose details of the kidnapping. In clandestine communiques to news media, the kidnappers demanded publication of a political manifesto in Central American and Mexican newspapers in exchange for her release, warning her life "will be in danger" if this was not done. Both Suazo Cordova and Guatemalan President Gen. Efrain Rios Montt made it known they were standing by their governments' policies of not negotiating with terrorists. However, the Guatemalan government authorized the family to use national television to ask the kidnappers for proof she was alive and to request a copy of the manifesto. A statement from the family read during a television newscast shortly before the deadline appealed to the kidnappers to send over a copy of the manifesto so they could try to have "its publication authorized by the governments of Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala." Under emergency regulations in force in Guatemala and El Salvador to deal with leftist rebellions, newspapers are forbidden from publishing guerrilla statements without government approval. The Guatemalan government did not say if the government would permit the manifesto's publication but promised that authorities will "support the efforts of the family to free the captive." The communique also called on international human rights organizations to urge "the terrorists not to assassinate but to free the captive." The government's decision was seen as an effort to avoid negotiating directly with leftist rebels while providing a way to save the daughter's life. In a similar communique from Tegucigalpa, the Honduran government said it too was not negotiating with the terrorists. The Honduran communique Friday night described Suazo Cordova's daughter as "an innocent victim of a terrorist act" who has no connections to the government.

UFDe attack "higher ups" # Energy Dept. fires top conservation expert By MILTON R. BENJAMIN Washington Post WASHINGTON -- Two years after she received a presidential merit award, the government's top expert on energy conservation says she is being forced out of her job as part of the Reagan administration's effort to "do away with all federal conservation programs." Dr. Maxine Savitz, who has been deputy assistant secretary of energy for conservation since January 1979, was fired Wednesday because she didn't report Monday to a new job in Golden, Colo. "This was nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to force me off the rolls," Savitz said. "I have two children in high school, and my husband, Alan, has just signed a three-year contract to head psychiatry at Greater Southeast Community Hospital (in Washington). They knew perfectly well I could not accept this transfer." Savitz, who joined the federal government at the time of the 1973 Arab oil embargo after doing conservation research for the National Science Foundation, said she felt Assistant Energy Secretary Joseph J. Tribble was making her the scapegoat for his failure to "kill conservation programs." "I REALLY believe he came here to do away with all the conservation programs except for a small amount of long-term research and development, and he hasn't been successful," Savitz said. "And I think he blames me for that instead of recognizing that many people in the Congress and private sector think there is a proper role for the federal government in conservation." Tribble, who summoned Savitz to his office at 3 p.m. Wednesday and gave her the required 30 days' advance notice of dismissal, did not return a reporter's telephone calls. Savitz's dismissal is the latest turn in the battle between the administration and Congress over the government's role in promoting energy conservation. THE ADMINISTRATION'S position, according to the energy secretary's annual report to Congress in August 1982, is that "the very nature of conservation implies that it be undertaken voluntarily out of the self-interest of individuals and businesses," and that there is "little need for federal participation." In line with this, the administration cut the amount requested for energy conservation in its fiscal 1983 budget to $326 million -- less than half the $757 million spent under President Carter's fiscal 1981 budget the final full year of his administration -- and indicated it planned to get the conservation quest down to only $11 million in fiscal 1985.

The 9-2 vote by the House Public Works investigations subcommittee came after Mrs. Gorsuch invoked executive privilege in withholding the documents dealing with EPA's toxic waste cleanup program. Mrs. Gorsuch, appearing before the panel in response to the subpoena, said the "vast majority" of documents would be duplicated and shipped to the subcommittee, though it will cost EPA at least $145,000 and could take six months. But she said that "sensitive documents found in open law enforcement files" -- such as legal strategies and case analyses -- would be withheld on the president's orders. She submitted a letter signed by Reagan in which the president said: "Because dissemination of such documents outside the executive branch would impair my solemn responsibility to enforce the law, I instruct you and your agency not to furnish copies of this category of documents."

The officers said a blood-stained green Datsun sports car found a block from the house was the assailants' vehicle.

Similar packages were sent to the House of Commons, the police said, bearing the names of Michael Foot, leader of the opposition Labor Party; David Steel, the Liberal leader; Roy Jenkins, the Social Democratic leader, and Timothy Raison, a junior minister at the Home Office whose responsibilities include legislation concerning animals. None of them ignited. According to Scotland Yard, the package received at Number 10 contained a note saying it had been sent by a group called the "Animal Rights Militia." Established animal rights organizations said they had never heard of the group, and a spokesman for the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said the incident represented a new peak of utter lunacy in the name of animal welfare. Several animal-protection organizations in Britain have taken more militant stands in recent months, encouraging non-violent civil disobedience. One of them, the Animal Liberation Front, has staged raids on research laboratories to free animals held captive there. Mrs. Thatcher was never in danger from the letter-bomb. It was opened in a mail room on the ground floor by Peter Taylor, a security official, while the prime minister was on an upper floor preparing for an appearance later at the House of Commons. Officials there said no incendiary or explosive device had ever before gone off inside the building. They had been confident that sophisticated mechanical and electronic screening devices guaranteed that none could get through. Taylor was said to be in good spirits and to have received only superficial facial burns. Because he wears glasses, his eyes were shielded from the flames that burst from the package as he opened it. In the Commons, Mrs. Thatcher said that more rigorous security measures were needed to deal with the threat posed by letter bombs, which have been mailed to dozens of senior officials by various groups over the last five years.

"Reagan ranches" had been set up already in more than a dozen cities, and organizers said they hoped to have about 30 of the encampments by Election Day. The demonstrations, designed to recall the "Hoovervilles" of the Depression, were part of a nationwide effort by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now and other groups that want to bring attention to what ACORN calls the "new depression" caused by Reagan's budget cuts. In Sioux Falls, S.D., Jim Brown, a Dell Rapids farmer and National Farmers Organization member, said Reagan's policies are "killing farmers" economically. Members of the administration "have to listen to the people," said Wanda Wyant, one of the tent city organizers. "They can no longer listen to big business and to their advisers. They have to begin to listen to the people." About 50 demonstrators marched through downtown Austin, Texas, passing out "Reagan Dollars" -- slips of brightly colored paper depicting Reagan and Republican Gov. Bill Clements with the words: "Reagan Dollar, 10.1 percent unemployment, the united states of unemployment."

Eighty-nine persons -- 75 Israelis and 14 Arabs -- died in the blast. Two hours later, a grieving Prime Minister Menachem Begin, buried his wife of 43 years, Aliza, in a plot on the Mount of Olives overlooking the walled old city of Jerusalem in a simple, brief ceremony held in brilliant sunshine. Several hundred invited guests -- family friends, relatives, and Israeli officials -- attended the funeral for Mrs. Begin, who died early Sunday morning after a long illness. Other funerals for the victims of the Tyre explosion were taking place at the same time at cemeteries all over the country. Mrs. Begin was interred in a Jewish burial ground between a Russian Orthodox church and a Moslem mosque on the Mount of Olives. The kaddish, the Jewish prayer for the dead, was read by the Begin's son, Benyamin Ze'ev. Other members of the family, including the couple's two daughters, Leah and Hasia, stood by. Local policemen, soldiers and border police kept onlookers at the cemetery at a distance. Clutches of Israelis were threaded about the hillside burial ground, which affords a spectacular view of both old and new Jerusalem and the glinting mosques, churches and synagogues. As the guests left the grave site, a tiny recording of a muezzin sounded prayers in Arabic from the mosque. As the Jewish mourners boarded chartered buses, they were watched by curious Arab onlookers, mostly children of school age. The Begins were known to have been very close and the prime minister had been distraught and distressed lately because of the severity of his wife's illness. The prime minister was in the United States when he received word of his wife's death. === Page 65 of 92 NFOs attack "higher ups" # Arens to head Israeli defense JERUSALEM (AP) -- Moshe Arens, Israel's hawkish ambassador to Washington, accepted the post of defense minister Monday in place of the ousted Ariel Sharon, who quit the ministry saying, "I am not leaving a beaten man." Prime Minister Menachem Begin won the approval of the Knesset, Israel's Parliament, for Sharon's removal from the Defense Ministry. Begin will hold the defense portfolio until Arens is confirmed. Sharon, who ran the Defense Ministry for 18 months, remains in the Cabinet as a minister without portfolio. He resigned the defense post after the Cabinet approved findings of an Israeli judicial commission that Sharon bore responsibility for allowing the Beirut massacre of Palestinians by Lebanese Christian militiamen Sept. 16-18. The commission said Sharon should have stopped Christian militiamen from committing the atrocity inside the Israeli-ringed Sabra and Chatilla camps. It also said Begin and other top officials bore partial responsibility. In a debate on Begin's request, opposition Labor Party leader Shimon Peres denounced him for keeping Sharon in the Cabinet and said the prime minister should have resigned. He accused Begin's government of "deciding on a partial pardon for itself" by retaining Sharon in the Cabinet. ARENS In Washington, Arens told Israel Radio's correspondent: "The portfolio was offered by the prime minister... I accepted it immediately." He said he supported Begin's policies "without reservations." Asked if his year as ambassador in Washington had affected his outlook, Arens replied, "I wouldn't say that I didn't learn anything in the year here. But my basic ideas about Israeli security and political matters have not changed." In another interview with Israel Television, he said there is "a substantial basis for cooperation" between Israel and the United States, but he indicated he would not follow a softer line with the Americans than Sharon did. "I know them over the course of the year, and they know me," he said. "I believe it cannot be said that I am lenient. I did not make concessions while I was here." Begin's secretary, Yehiel Kadishai, said Arens would fly to Israel in a few days to go through confirmation proceedings. Arens, 57, is a softspoken, practical diplomat with hardline views on making peace with the Arabs. He grew up in the United States, began his career as an aeronautical engineer and moved to Israel in 1950. Despite his hawkish views, Arens' style contrasts sharply with that of the flamboyant Sharon. Arens also has said he does not share Sharon's desire to become prime minister. Though Arens opposed the 1979 peace treaty with Egypt, he now accepts it as an accomplished fact. Sharon, in a defiant farewell speech to defense ministry workers, served notice that he would continue to press his tough line in the Cabinet, even without a portfolio. === Page 66 of 92 UFO attack "higher ups" # New version of palace break-in credits maid Spok Rev 7/14/82 LONDON (AP) -- The lawyer of the man who sneaked into Queen Elizabeth II's bedroom said Tuesday the prowler spent "just over 10 minutes" talking with the monarch about the royal family before a chambermaid led him away. After visiting his client at Brixton Prison, attorney Maurice Nadeem said in a TV interview that 31-year-old Michael Fagan had been to Buckingham Palace "twice -- no more," despite press reports he broke into the royal residence as many as 12 times. Asked by Independent Television News if Fagan had explained why he did it, the lawyer said: "Yes, he wished to see Her Majesty the Queen." He said Fagan and the monarch talked about her family, and the queen mentioned her eldest son, Prince Charles. The conversation ended when a maid came into the room and Fagan was taken away, Nadeem said. The Standard newspaper, in its final afternoon edition, offered a new version of the palace security blunder, which has caused a furor in Parliament, the press and among the public. The paper said the 56-year-old monarch used her bedside telephone to raise the alarm when awakened by the intruder at about 7 a.m. Friday, but the palace police officer failed to realize the urgency of her message because she was so calm. "The first person to enter her room was a chambermaid 10 minutes after the intruder got in. Police arrived another eight minutes after that -- when the chambermaid had already led the man away. The chambermaid handed the man over to a footman..." the Standard said. The Standard explained the security lapse by saying an armed policeman had gone off duty outside the royal bedroom at 6 a.m., when members of the queen's personal staff arrive for work. The British Broadcasting Corp. reported that the queen tried to push a "panic" button in her room but it failed to go off. Asked about the two reports, a Scotland Yard spokesman said: "We are not prepared to discuss either of them." The original Daily Express account put the incident at 3 a.m. and said the queen chatted quietly with the man for 10 minutes before using his request for a cigarette as an excuse for summoning a footman who detained him. With Britain in an official flap over what one front page story termed a "national crisis," Fagan's mother was quoted as saying she would write to the queen to apologize. "I'm not saying my son would have hurt her. But if the queen had cried out and people burst in, what would have happened?" Ivy Fagan was quoted as telling the London Standard newspaper. "The way she handled it, to talk to him and keep calm, was absolutely marvelous. Now I plan to write to her to apologize. It's not very much, given what has happened, but what else can I do? I am deeply sorry," Mrs. Fagan was quoted as saying. Fagan's father, Michael Sr., said later Tuesday he was "shocked" when told his son had entered the queen's bedroom. Speaking from the family's state-subsidized apartment at Highbury, a London suburb five miles north of the palace, he told Independent Television News: "He's the kind of lad where, if someone came into his Mum's room and did the same thing, he'd go stark raving mad.

The Foreign Ministry summoned Surinamese ambassador Henk Herrenberg to express its "horror" at the reported executions on Wednesday. The opposition leaders were rounded up Tuesday night -- to avert "an imminent bloodbath," Bouterse said Wednesday on the state radio in the former Dutch colony on South America's north coast. "The message we got is that a number of people were executed. We have no numbers," said a Dutch Foreign Ministry source who declined to be identified. Identities of those reported executed were not available. During the Tuesday night roundup, the headquarters of Surinam's major union group, a newspaper and two radio stations were burned down.

Spok Rev 11/5/82 UFO attack "higher ups" # Irish government tossed out DUBLIN, Ireland (AP) -- Prime Minister Charles Haughey's minority government fell Thursday after eight months in office, and President Patrick Hillery scheduled the third general election in 17 months for Nov. 24. Haughey lost a vote of confidence 82-80 in the Dail, the lower house of Parliament, after a heated two-day debate on a controversial austerity plan to rescue the economy. Most political commentators believe the results of elections in June 1981, last Feb. 18 were both inconclusive, with the major factions dependent on small left-wing independent parties to keep them in office. An opinion poll published last week in the authoritarian Irish Times put Haughey's party, Fianna Fail (Soldiers of Destiny), even with Fine Gael (United Ireland), with 42 percent each. But former Prime Minister Garret FitzGerald's Fine Gael was 22 percent more popular than Haughey. Fine Gael and the small Labor Party, which governed in coalition after the 1981 elections, are certain to form a new alliance in the coming poll. But together they had only 78 of the 166 seats in the outgoing Dail, compared to Fianna Fail's 81, and would have to pick up seven to win a majority. Haughey's administration has been bedeviled by political scandal, and the country's worst economic crisis since independence in 1922. The government fell only eight days after Parliament reconvened following a summer recess. Haughey was left vulnerable after one deputy from his party died two weeks ago, and another was hospitalized by heart attacks. The support of maverick right-winger Neil Blaney gave the government 80 votes, but three deputies of the Marxist Workers Party who had voted with the opposition since February voted with the opposition to protest proposed hefty cuts in the health services. 11/14/82 A4 THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW Sun., Nov. 1 # Italian regime collapses after only 2 months Los Angeles Times UFO attack "higher ups" ROME -- Italy's 42nd government since World War II collapsed Saturday, after only two months in office, when President Sandro Pertini accepted the resignation of Prime Minister Giovanni Spadolini.

But when parliamentary debate Friday night made it clear that Spadolini could not gain Socialist Party support for a vote of confidence in his five-party coalition he called a final Cabinet meeting Saturday and resubmitted his resignation to Pertini. === Page 68 of 92 UFO allack "higher w/es" Moscow draped in black as Soviets mourn leader Crop Pas 11/12/8h MOSCOW (AP) -/Soviet workers draped Mos ow with red and black flags of mourning for Leonid I.

The government said Guzman's pistol had accidentally discharged, fatally wounding him. Privately, high government officials said the 71-year-old president had committed suicide in the bathroom of his office, but they offered no explanation of why he might have done so. Vice President Jacobo Majluta Azar was sworn in as president by the chief justice shortly after dawn. He immediately issued a statement reaffirming that his government will transfer power to president-elect Salvador Jorge Blanco, the winner of the May 16 elections, as scheduled Aug. 16. On hand to back Majluta's statement were all the country's generals, who had assembled at the National Palace shortly after the shooting. Guzman, who was elected president in 1978, received a single bullet in the head while he was in his office in the National Palace an hour before midnight. He was taken to a military hospital, where he died about 5:30 a.m. When news of his death reached the palace, one of the generals asked Majluta to join them, and less than an hour later he was sworn into office while a dozen generals and journalists watched the ceremony.

Vicki Morgan, 29, whose suit was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court by celebrity lawyer Marvin Mitchelson, said she had been "traveling companion, confidante and business partner" to Bloomingdale since she was 17 years old. Bloomingdale, 66, founder of the Diners Club Corp. and heir to the Bloomingdale's department store fortune, is a member of Reagan's so-called "kitchen cabinet" of advisors. He and his wife, Betsy, prominent in Los Angeles society, have hosted many parties for Reagan and his wife, Nancy, on their trips to the West Coast. The Bloomingdales have three children. Bloomingdale could not immediately be located for comment. Ms. Morgan's suit said Bloomingdale paid her support, sometimes as much as $18,000 a month, and made her a partner in profitable businesses including a firm called Show Biz Pizza. Mitchelson, best known for the landmark palimony case of Michelle Triola Marvin against actor Lee Marvin, said Ms. Morgan was cut off financially by Bloomingdale last month. "Unlike in the Marvin case, Ms. Morgan has some signed agreements with Bloomingdale," Mitchelson said. The documents, he said, include an agreement to pay her support of as much as $10,000 a month. Mitchelson said Ms. Morgan was hesitant to file her suit because Bloomingdale has been hospitalized recently, although he did not say what Bloomingdale was suffering from. "She hates to do this because she loves him, but she has no choice," Mitchelson said. He said Ms. Morgan had given up chances for employment over the years because of her agreement with Bloomingdale. In the past, he said, she has worked as a model and actress with some roles in Hollywood movies. The suit said that although Bloomingdale and Ms. Morgan never had a live-in relationship, Bloomingdale had a "second home" with her in Beverly Hills and served as a "second father" to her son by another man.

Danny Bundrick, the 1981 Jaycee Outstanding Young Farmer in the Nation, agreed Monday to plead guilty to defrauding the government on farm loans and crop disaster relief, U.S. Attorney Henry Dargan McMaster said. The Orangeburg Democrat also agreed to pay back more than $700,000 he received fraudulently from government programs, plus interest. Bundrick, who lost a re-election bid in the June 8 primary, also agreed to place his farm, farm equipment and his personal vehicles under lien to the federal government. The government would take over the property, estimated to be worth more than $500,000, if he fails to pay back the money in five years. House Speaker Ramon Schwartz Jr. said he received a resignation letter from Bundrick early Monday. McMaster said papers he filed in federal court charged Bundrick with, among other things, lying on crop disaster relief applications and making false statements on an indemnity claim for a corn crop he had said was smaller than it actually was. Bundrick faces up to 15 years in prison and a fine of $25,000. He will be sentenced later, McMaster said in a three-page statement. Spok Rev 7/13/82 === Page 70 of 92 PO+ attack "higheruf" anama's Rovo resigns, Washington Post Spoke Rev 7/31/82 MEXICO CITY - Panamanian President Aristides Royo resigned unexpectedly Fri- day, citing health reasons. Vice President Ri- cardo de la Espriella was sworn in as chief executive by the speaker of the national leg- islature, to whom Royo submitted his resig- nation. Although there was no immediate indica- tion of political motivation for the 42-year- old Royo's "irrevocable resignation," his de- parture can be expected to affect internal tensions that have built up recently and it could influence regional efforts to negotiate an end to conflicts in Central America. In the letter to the legislature, Royo said: "I present my irrevocable resignation as president of the republic due to health prob- lemas that make a medical checkup necessary and prevent me from continuing in this posi- tion with all the responsibilities it entails." Friends ot itoyo said he had trouble with his throat and was expected to seek treatment in the United States. Royo's declaration came one day short of a year after the death in an air crash of the strongman who effectively put him in office, general Omar Torrijos. The then newly elected legislature had des- ignated Royo and de la Espriella president and vice president for six-year terms in 1978 following Torrijos' decision to retire as head of state. However, he kept his job as com- mander of the National Guard, which is the only military force in the nation of 2 million people. Command of the guard is still widely considered to be the most powerful post in Panama. Torrijos, who ran this country with a blend of social conscience, questionable practices and Machiavellian pragmatism for 13 years, had been widely expected to run in presiden- blames health tial elections scheduled for 1984. Royo, meanwhile, came to be considered the leader of leftist elements in Panama's government. He was a constant critic of U.S. implementation of the canal treaties, often accusing Washington of hundreds of techni- cal violations. Internationally, he was re. garded as a key link with Cuba in efforts to talk out the worsening regional confronta- tions. But Royo, a Panama City lawyer and for- mer education minister, was also seen by many of his countrymen as a frequently inef- fectual administrator who had no strong con- stituency of his own. De la Espriella, on the other hand, has extensive backing both among business interests and the National Guard. Frictions between Royo and the current commanders of the guard have been report- ed and rumored since Torrijos was killed. Royo was reported to have tendered his res- ignation the day after Torrijos's death but the commanders of the Guard declined to ac. cept it at the time. In the vacuum created by Torrijos's disap- pearance from the scene, two men have em- erged with their hands on the reins of power that the 10,000 troops of the guard represent: Gen. Ruben Dario Paredes, commander-in- chief since March, and Col. Manuel Antonio Noriega, head of the guard's intelligence aparatus. Paredes has been edging toward a bid for the presidency in recent months, and two weeks ago he openly undercut Royo's admin- istration by saying that the people should have a chance to vote before 1984. The somewhat mysterious and widely feared Noriega, meanwhile, is generally ex- pected to succeed Paredes as head of the Na- tional Guard.

There were no other Injuries in the bombing, the latest in a series of at- tacks against Palestinian officials in France in the past 10 years. Details of the explosion were unclear.

There were conflicting claiming three men threw a boinb into reports from witnesses, with some Dani had not requested that police Ibrahim Souss, director of the PLO office, said Dani recently had told French police he no longer wanted them to guard him. Souss did not say when the protection stopped. "He thought that only the director of the PLO's office would be in danger," said Souss, who has police protection. Souss' predecessor, Ezzedine Kalak, was killed along with an aide Auges, 1978 in his office by two Jordanians of Palestinian origia. Residents in the quiet working class neighborhood here Dani lived and died said the PLO representative had 24- hour armes police guards at his home until this spring.

Kamal Hussein, deputy director of the PLO office in Rome, was killed June 17 when a car he was driving blew up five minutes after he pulled it out of his garage on his way to his downtown office.

The attack took place an hour after Pope John Paul II left the capital. Gen. Victor Lago Roman, 63-year-old commander of the elite Brunete First Armored Division who spurned bodyguards, was killed outright, the Madrid civilian governor's office said. His soldier-driver suffered slight wounds. POLICE SAID THEY believed the assassins were Basque terrorists, but there was no immediate claim of responsibility. Investigators said they found 16 9mm parabellum shell casings lying near the general's black sedan. The ammunition is the type used in the past by ETA-M, the radical military wing of the Basque separatist organization. The gunmen sped away through traffic, witnesses told police. Socialist Premier-elect Felipe Gonzalez called the killing "a provocation." He said that if the attackers were trying to challenge "the new majority chosen by the Spanish people," his government would "use all means at the disposal of the democratic state to do away with the scourge of terrorism." Gonzalez and his Socialist Workers' Party won an overwhelming victory a week ago in general elections that guaranteed them a majority in Parliament for the first time in Spanish history. GONZALEZ SAID after the victory that "pacification" of the Basque region and banishing Spain's "coup mentality" would be Socialist priorities. The victory was officially certified Thursday. The Socialists are scheduled to take power after King Juan Carlos convenes the new Parliament at the end of November. The pope, on a 10-day visit to Spain, departed from a prepared text during a Mass in Toledo to pray for "the latest victim -- all the victims of terrorism in Spain." He said he prayed Spain would be freed from "the phenomenon of terrorism." The pontiff, who had left Madrid by plane for Guadalupe an hour before the 8:35 a.m. attack, was informed of the killing in Guadalupe during his first stop of the day. POLICE SAID LAGO Roman, a career officer who enlisted in the Spanish army at the outset of the 1936-39 civil war and fought with the famous Blue Division on the Russian Front, drove the same route to work every day, flying his commander's flag. They said he spurned armed escorts. His hat, folded gloves and swagger stick lay neatly in the back seat of his bullet-punctured car as it was towed away. Gen. Prudencio Pedrosa Sobrado, who succeeds Lago Roman as commander of the Brunete division, said the army hoped the government would "take the necessary measures to finish once and for all with this situation." "The role of the armed forces is to defend the integrity of the fatherland, and we shall respect the established constitutional order," he said. **Gen.

The panel's explosive report, which also rebuked Prime Minister Menachem Begin, rocked Israel's political structure and touched off speculation about early elections at a time when U.S. pressure is mounting for new Israeli concessions toward a Middle East peace. Begin and his Cabinet met for two hours without a decision on Sharon's status, and scheduled another meeting for today. The three-man commission of inquiry said Israeli leaders should have foreseen that allowing Lebanese Christian militiamen into two Beirut refugee camps last September was an invitation to tragedy. Hundreds of Palestinians subsequently were slain by the militiamen. An official Lebanese investigation has yet to bring any of the killers to justice. "No prophetic powers were required to know that concrete danger of acts of slaughter existed," said the commission report. It also called for the resignation of the head of Israel's military intelligence, and condemned the military chief of staff. It accused Begin of showing "indifference" to the threat of a massacre in Beirut, but recommended no action against him. Political uncertainty threatened to linger for days here as the Cabinet grappled with the devastating report. Israel radio broadcast reports that Sharon was refusing to quit or accept an alternative Cabinet post. But a Cabinet source said almost all the 20 ministers, including Sharon, favored endorsing the findings. The chairman of Begin's ruling coalition, Avraham Shapira, said after meeting with Begin, however, that the prime minister would not demand Sharon's resignation.

The victims were identified as Courtlandt S. Gross, 77, his wife, Alexandra, 72, and their live-in housekeeper, Catherine VanderVeur, 69. A roofing contractor who arrived at the four-acre estate Friday morning discovered one of the bodies, said Lt. John Sheenan, commanding officer of the Lower Merion Township detectives. "He noticed that there was a body on the floor near the back door of the house," Sheenan said. When police arrived, they found three bodies, including one near the back door. Salvatore Frustaci, deputy superintendent of the Lower Merion Township Police Department, said, "There was evidence of forced entry to the home. There's no question we are dealing with a triple homicide. As to motive, that's sketchy right now." The three "died as a result of gunshot wounds," Frustaci said, but he declined to say how many times they had been shot. Deputy Montgomery County Coroner Carl Hofheinz said the bodies were taken to Bryn Mawr Hospital for autopsies. The Gross estate, valued at $500,000, is on Philadelphia's suburban Main Line, an area west of the city known for secluded mansions. The two-story, French-style stucco home is located behind the home of Dr. Richard A. Davis, brother of first lady Nancy Reagan, according to Sonia Peltz, a neighbor. "That's what shook everybody up," Ms. Peltz said. "The road is under surveillance." However, Mary Ann Gordon, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Secret Service in Washington, said the house is not under protection of her agency and would not be except during a visit by the president or his immediate family. Another neighbor, who did not want to be identified, said she thought she heard a shot in the middle of the night, but paid no attention because people frequently hunt in the area. During an afternoon news conference, Frustaci refused to discuss whether the house, which is set back from the main road by a 430-foot driveway, had been ransacked. Spok. Rev. July '82 UFOs attack "higher ups" # Palimony suit names Nancy's friend Los Angeles Times -- Spok Rev 7/30/82 LOS ANGELES -- Betsy Bloomingdale, often described as First Lady Nancy Reagan's best friend, was sued Wednesday for $5 million punitive damages for her alleged "malice" and "jealousy" in cutting off financial support to her husband's 29-year-old lover. Bloomingdale was added as a defendant in a palimony suit filed July 8 by Vicki Morgan against Alfred Bloomingdale, Diner's Club founder and a long-time member of President Reagan's "kitchen Cabinet" of political advisers. One of her contractural duties in return for Bloomingdale's support checks, Morgan said in the amended suit, was "to act as therapist to help (Bloomingdale) overcome his Marquis de Sade complex." Sadism, defined as "the getting of sexual pleasure from dominating, mistreating or hurting one's partner" or "the getting of pleasure from inflicting physical or psychological pain on another or others," derives from the Marquis de Sade, who died in 1814. Marvin M. Mitchelson, attorney for Morgan, claimed that Betsy Bloomingdale interfered with oral and written contracts in which her husband had agreed to support Morgan. The interference by her, according to the suit, "was committed by her in jealousy of Alfred Bloomingdale's love and affection for and devotion toward (Morgan) and in resentment of the benefits received and the happiness enjoyed by defendant Alfred Bloomingdale." A spokesman at the Bloomingdales' Beverly Hills home said that Betsy Bloomingdale was unavailable Wednesday and that there will be no comment on the revised lawsuit. The 66-year-old Bloomingdale had faithfully sent Morgan a monthly check for up to $18,000 until June, according to Mitchelson. He said Morgan was then informed that no more checks would be delivered. Mitchelson claimed that Betsy Bloomingdale had halted Morgan's support checks when her husband became ill. After he met Morgan, then a teenager, in 1970, Bloomingdale agreed to support her for life and to provide a house for her, an agreement often repeated verbally and in letters, according to the suit. Early this year, the suit claims, he agreed in writing to split profits of a pizza business with her. The amended suit also claims that Bloomingdale promised in a written contract Feb. 12 to pay Morgan "$10,000 a month for two years beginning March 1982 ... from the proceeds of his profit from Marina Bay," one of Bloomingdale's real estate developments. In exchange, Morgan was to become Bloomingdale's "confidante, traveling companion, and business partner with respect to real estate investments," obligations that she claims to have fulfilled. The therapist duty, which Morgan also claims she fulfilled faithfully, was alleged for the first time Wednesday in the revised suit. The current suit seeks $180,000 for lost income from the Marina Bay contract, $1 million for Morgan's share of Showbiz Pizza and $5 million for her lifetime support. The additional $5 million punitive damages is sought solely from Betsy Bloomingdale. The case is based on California's sanction of "palimony," in which unmarried couples have community property contract rights, a principle originally won by Mitchelson. === Page 74 of 92 Gorsuch expecting the worst By JEFF SHER Spokesman-Review Anne Gorsuch, administrator of the federal Environmental Protection Agency, said Friday in Spokane that she is ready to go to jail if need be to defend her refusal to release documents sought by a congressional committee. "All I can say is that I have a lot of reading I haven't done for the last couple of years and my toothbrush is packed," Gorsuch told a Northwest Mining Association meeting. Minutes before her speech at the Davenport Hotel, Gorsuch learned that the House Public Works Committee had voted 28-11 to cite her for contempt of Congress. (Related story above.) The citation comes as a result of Gorsuch's refusal to release documents subpoenaed by a subcommittee of the Public Works Committee investigating EPA's program to clean up hazardous waste dump sites. If the full House approves the contempt citation, Gorsuch could face criminal prosecution and jail. Gorsuch is expecting the worst. "It is fair to say the Democratic-controlled Congress of the United States will vote to find me in contempt," she said. However, she added, "The President has told me not to release those documents and I intend to stand firm." The documents in question involve cases EPA is investigating or litigating, Gorsuch said. At a press conference following her speech, Gorsuch said one of the documents, entitled "Litigation Strategy at Love Canal," contains information that if known to defendants in the case would "seriously impair our ability to win the case." Gorsuch said the issue is not whether congressmen would act responsibly with the information or whether they would release it to defendants. "The issue is control," or whether the executive branch must reveal all details of its activities to congressional overseers, she said. Gorsuch criticized Congress for being able to find the time to pursue the contempt citation while it hasn't been able to find the time to finish work on the federal budget. "I find it mind-boggling," she said. Only three of 13 major appropriations bills have been passed so far, she said. Gorsuch also ripped Congress for failing to pass amendments to the Clean Air Act that would extend deadlines requiring industries and counties to meet air quality standards. The act expires Dec. 31, 1982, but will remain in effect as is if not amended. Without changes, the act requires the EPA administrator to impose one of several sanctions on industries and counties not meeting the standards by the end of this month. Spokane County faces the sanctions because it will not meet standards for carbon monoxide or total suspended particulate pollution by the deadline, county air pollution control officials told The Spokesman-Review this week. Gorsuch said there are several sanctions she could impose: * A ban on construction of major industrial sources of pollution in the county, or changes at major sources. (Continued on page 2) Contempt vote goes against EPA chief WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Democratic-controlled House Public Works Committee voted 28 to 11 Friday to cite Anne M. Gorsuch, the Environmental Protection Agency administrator who has been withholding 1,000 documents from Congress on President Reagan's orders, for contempt of Congress. If Mrs. Gorsuch and the committee do not work out a compromise, as is usually the case in such tugs-of-war between the congressional and executive branches of the government, the entire House could be asked to vote the administrator in contempt for defying a subpoena for the documents. Conviction on such a charge carries a maximum penalty of $1,000 in fines and a year in jail. The documents are being sought for the panel's investigation into charges that the EPA is not holding major chemical companies liable for their full share of cleanup costs at some major hazardous waste dump sites. The vote came after the committee rejected a last-minute proposal by the administration that would have allowed a task force of administration officials to review the documents dealing with EPA's toxic waste cleanup program to determine if the papers should be turned over. The committee vote was almost entirely along party lines. Man convicted of assaulting Justice White SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- Newton C. Estes, an anti-busing and pornography crusader, was convicted of assault Friday for punching Supreme Court Justice Byron White during a Bar Association meeting here last July. The jury of six men and six women deliberated for just over two hours before returning the verdict. The 57-year-old construction estimator from nearby Kaysville was released on recognizance after U.S. District Judge David K. Winder set sentencing for Jan. 14. Estes could be sentenced to up to three years in jail and fined up to $5,000 on the charge of assault on a justice. Before adjourning the trial, Winder paused a few moments and leveled his gaze at Estes. "You didn't use a weapon, but I think this kind of conduct has no place in our system. It's absolutely ridiculous," Winder said. Record jobless claims WASHINGTON (AP) -- Some 6.27 million Americans were collecting jobless benefits in the week ending Jan. 1, the highest level since the program began in 1935, the government reported on Thursday. The record-level payment of claims by the government, largely to workers recently thrown out of work, however, is due partly to an emergency federal jobless benefit program enacted by Congress last August in response to the year-old recession.

Stock Real 8/7/82 Um attack "higher where" Coalition collapses; Italy again in crisis By DON A. SCHANCHE Spek Aus 8/8/8- Los Angeles Times ROME - Italy's 41st post-World War II government collapsed Saturday following a surprise crisis in which the Socialist Party pulled out of the five-party ruling coalition. Prime Minister Giovanni Spadolini, whose 405 days marked one of the longest periods in office since 1945 submitted his resignation to President Sandro Pertini after an emergency Cabinet meeting, boycotted by the. Socialists, Saturday afternoon. Expressing hope that a new government can be formed soon without calling for general elections, Per- tini said he would begin consultations Monday aimed at patching together another coalition. Political ob- servers expected him to ask Spadolini, who has been a popular and unusually successful prime minister, to head a caretaker government in the meantime. The 57-year-old Spadolini, a member of the small Republican Party, was a victim of a long-running feud between the dominant Christian Democratic Party and the Socialists, the two major partners in the coalition. A power struggle between the two parties brought the government close to collapse twice before this year. The other, smaller coalition parties are the Social Democrats, the Liberals and the Republicans. Pertini's chance of building another non-Communist consensus that will prevent the mainstream Christian Democrats from dominating the government as they have since World War II, will depend on his ability to talk the Socialists into rejoining the coalition, accord- ing to political analysts. If Socialist Party leader Bettino Craxi refuses, the government crisis will continue until the president calls for new elections. This is a step most Italian po- litical leaders have said they would like to avoid. Craxi's position concerning new elections, however, re- mains uncertain. The Socialist leader had indicated in the spring that he might favor early elections because he sensed a chance to increase the roughly 10 percent of the popu- lar vote his party won in the last elections, A strong showing would guarantee not only more than the pres- ent 62 Socialist seats in the 630-member Chamber of Deputies, but would increase Socialist representation in the Cabinet and possibly give Craxi the prime minis- ter's post as well.

(AP) - Angry dem- onstrators pelted Prime Minister PI- erre Trudeau's railroad car with rocks, eggs and tomatoes when it stopped briefly in this failing company town late Thursday as he returned home from a Rocky Mountain vacation. Many in the crowd of an estimated 500 people ran toward the prime minis- ter's train car late Thursday night shouting, "Trudeau must go!" and "Go home!" Trudeau stayed inside his compart- ment during the brief stop in Sudbury, which has 40 percent unemployment the highest jobless rate in metropolitan Canada. They said none of the protesters were arrested and the prime minister was unharmed. Two windows in the train were broken. Trudeau's railroad car also was hit by eggs and tomatoes at several stops in western Canada earlier this week, but the Thursday night protest was the first in which rocks have been thrown. Among the more militant protesters was a man who provided demonstrators with eggs embellished with stamps of a rude hand gesture, similar to the one Trudeau flashed to an angry crowd at Salmon Arm, B.C., last week. Most of Sudbury's jobs come from the Inco Ltd., the world's second-largest nickel refinery. But the factory is in its second month of a three-month shut- down following a strike by the steel- workers union in June. === Page 76 of 92 UFDs attack "higher ups" # Rep. Dornan says 7 implicated ## Heckler urges the speaker of the House to appoint an investigator By JAY PERKINS Associated Press Spok. Rev. 7/9/82 WASHINGTON - Rep. Robert K. Dornan, who allowed his congressional office to be used by an undercover narcotics agent, is saying his sources tell him that six current members of the House and one senator have been implicated by others as users of cocaine. Some of those come from Massachusetts, New York and California. Dornan also contends that allegations of homosexual activities with congressional pages have been made against two of the supposed cocaine users. One congressional source, who declined to be identified, agreed Thursday that the separate investigations of sex and drugs "could mesh" at some point. The California Republican made the allegation in a confidential letter urging a House committee to conduct its own probe of cocaine use by members of Congress, according to syndicated columnist Jack Anderson. DORNAN COULD NOT be reached for comment but his office acknowledged that he had sent such a letter to Rep. Leo Zeferetti, chairman of the House Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control. One House committee - the Committee on Standards of Official Conduct, commonly know as the ethics committee - already has started its own investigation of the allegations that some congressmen have been using cocaine and that others allegedly were involved in homosexual sex with the young pages who carry messages for Congress. The ethics committee already has named Donald A. Purdy Jr., a 31-year-old lawyer, to head those investigations. In addition, Rep. Margaret Heckler, R-Mass., on Thursday called on House Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill, D-Mass., to name an independent investigator. SHE SAID THE charges were "so utterly shocking and bizarre as to pose a serious challenge to public confidence" in Congress. A spokesman for O'Neill's office responded that the speaker felt that the ethics committee was the proper authority to decide on how the investigation should be conducted. Dornan said in his letter that he was urging a separate investigation by the narcotics committee, a panel on which he serves, because he feared federal law enforcement officials would concentrate on the pushers and ignore the users of cocaine in Congress. Dornan, citing what he called investigative sources, told Zeferetti that seven current members of Congress and two former members have been named by at least three separate sources as users of cocaine. Another half-dozen names also have been the subject of similar allegations, he said. HE SAID THREE of the nine members were from California, one was from New York, one from Massachusetts, and one from a state in the District of Columbia metropolitan area. Dornan did not list the state of the senator nor the states of the two former congressmen. "Additionally, I have been told that the names of two members of Congress mentioned above have been brought up in connection with an FBI investigation concerning alleged homosexual activities with congressional pages," Dornan said.

Rev. 7/7/82 # Capitol probe turns to drugs New York Times WASHINGTON - Federal and congressional authorities investigating allegations of sexual misconduct and drug use involving Capitol pages and members of Congress said Tuesday that the sexual charges had not yet been substantiated but that the drug charges appeared more serious. "Where there's smoke there's smoke, as far as the sex charges are concerned," said a congressional official familiar with the investigation. He added, however, that with regard to the drug charges, "there may be a small fire." Rep. Robert D. Dornan, R-Calif., said that his Capitol Hill office had been used earlier this year as a base by an undercover narcotics agent. Dornan said that investigators were probing the alleged use of cocaine by "half a dozen" congressmen. Three separate investigations are being conducted, apparently with little coordination. A federal grand jury here is investigating the drug charges; the Justice Department's public integrity section and Federal Bureau of Investigation agents are focusing on the sex charges; and the House Ethics Committee is investigating the entire range of charges, including allegations that cocaine was used by members of Congress to seduce pages into homosexual relationships. Pages are high school students, 14-18 years old, who are appointed by senators and House members to serve as messengers and to perform a variety of chores. The Senate has 30 pages and the House 71. They earn salaries on the basis of $9,090 annually, but usually work only nine or 10 months a year. The allegations of sexual misconduct were made last month by two former pages, Leroy Williams of Little Rock, and Jeff Opp of Denver. The drug charges stem from an undercover investigation. A task force of federal drug agents and District of Columbia police officers arrested three men in April on charges of possessing cocaine with intent to distribute it. One of the men was a former page, and another has reportedly implicated two members of Congress from California in his testimony before the Grand Jury. Spokesmen for the two representatives have denied the charges. === Page 77 of 92 UFOs attack "higher ups" # Argentina's Falkland commanders removed Washington Post Spok Rev 7/28/82 BUENOS AIRES, Argentina -- Gen. Mario Benjamin Menendez and four other generals who commanded Argentine troops on the Falkland Islands have been removed from their posts in the army in a move the commander-in-chief described as the prelude to a major military shake-up. The commander, Gen. Cristino Nicolaides, who has struggled to control widespread unrest in the army this month, announced the action Monday night. He said the high command had decided to "rapidly restructure the army" in order to stabilize its ranks and "professionalize" its operations. The army command also announced the replacement of two colonels, eight lieutenant colonels and 10 majors. Most were stationed on the Falklands as field commanders after Argentina's April 2 invasion, officials said. The extensive reassignment of commanders comes at a time when Argentina's armed forces remain sharply divided over the invasion and the course of military rule. The continued feuding is regarded as a growing threat to the army government of Gen. Reynaldo Bignone, which has been unable to gain public confidence for its emergency economic program or its planned 18-month transition to civilian government. In the army, according to well-informed sources, field commanders generally have been matched against their staff colleagues and superiors in Buenos Aires in the determination of how Argentina failed. Some brigade generals and many junior officers also are reported to be deeply unhappy with the top rank of military commanders, including Nicolaides. Menendez, the three other brigade generals and two colonels temporarily were assigned to Nicolaides for "review of orders" -- a measure that Nicolaides said did not indicate a judgment of blame against them for Argentina's defeat by Britain in the 11-week conflict. The action was interpreted by military observers here Tuesday as an effort by Nicolaides to cool tensions in the army and consolidate his own command while a special commission continues an investigation of the conduct of Menendez and other officers in the failed campaign, which cost Argentina close to 2,000 casualties.

Ambassador Wang Jichuan was not harmed in the attack Thursday, according to Mozambique Radio and the country's official news agency AIM. The gunman was not identified and details were sketchy. It was not clear whether the killer was arrested or how the incident ended. Police surrounded the embassy after being alerted by a staff member at the mission. AIM was quoted as saying by the Portuguese news agency ANOP. The ANOP dispatch, reaching Lisbon on Friday, was filed from Maputo. Quoting unidentified diplomatic sources in Maputo, the Portuguese agency said the attacker was an attache at the embassy. The report cited speculation in Maputo that the killer had either "gone crazy" or flown into a rage at having been refused a transfer back to China after spending seven years in Mozambique post. Seven of the victims died at the scene, and the other two died Friday morning, ANOP said. One of the victims was reported to be a diplomat.

"The reality is that the National Guard has deposed the president and imposed a program on his successor," said a statement signed by six opposition parties.

Watt met with leaders of the league at its headquarters here. The organization issued a statement in which it quoted Watt as saying that American Jews had "every right to be upset" about the letter. The letter, which came to light last week, was written June 17 and was addressed to Israeli Ambassador Moshe Arens. In it, Watt discussed the Reagan administration's efforts to promote energy development. "If the liberals of the Jewish community join with the other liberals of this nation to oppose these efforts, they will weaken our ability to be a good friend of Israel.

NEW YORK (AP) - Prostitution rings are providing young boys to customers in Washington and then selling information about their clients' sexual preferences to foreign intelligence services, a private investigator testified Monday. Dale Smith, working for the New York Senate's Select Committee on Crime, said he learned that British, Israeli and Soviet agents bought information from several call services in Washington. The witness appeared before the committee at the opening of a two-day hearing on prostitution among young males and on pornography. Smith said an accountant for five call services told him about the information sale to foreign agents. He refused to elaborate on the allegations when questioned by reporters, but committee counsel Jeremiah McKenna said the information concerned "government officials." He declined to be more specific. "They're making more money selling information than on the prostitution itself," McKenna said. Allegations of sex and drug use on Capitol Hill among congressmen, pages and other employees have circulated in Washington recently. Smith also said that "call service operation in Washington have some connection with organized crime in New York." He described how male prostitutes between the ages of 13 and 16 were shuttled between the cities and said the going rate for boys ranges from $50 to $250, with younger boys commanding the most. Spokane, Wash., Thurs., # Plea made for space program funding SPACE CENTER, Houston (AP) - Retiring Johnson Space Center director Christopher C. Kraft Jr. said Wednesday the Reagan administration should spend more money for space research instead of bombers and missiles. Kraft, who played a key role in the U.S. manned space program and in development of the space shuttle, made the comment at a farewell news conference. "I don't understand how this country can spend $222 billion in the next 3½ to 4 years on the B-1 bomber and the MX missile and not be willing to spend another half-billion dollars per year on the space program," he said. Kraft, 58, announced Tuesday he would leave the space agency on Saturday. He announced earlier this year he intended to retire in November and the earlier departure came as a surprise. "It's time for a new leader," he explained. Kraft said the next major challenge is the establishment of a permanent orbiting base, a concept he has been proposing for years. Kraft said he plans to continue to be active in the space program and will become a consultant "very soon" for Rockwell International, the prime contractor for the space program. Asked if there was ever a time when he was concerned about astronauts dying in space, he noted, "Most of the gray hair I have attests to the fact that we came damn close on a couple of occasions." He said two astronauts almost died aboard the Gemini 8 flight in March 1966 when a small rocket engine went out of control and sent the craft into a rapid spin. The other near tragedy was on Apollo 13 in April 1970 when an oxygen tank exploded while three astronauts were halfway to the moon. "We were just damn lucky that it didn't ignite the stored propellants," Kraft said. "The Lord decided that day that those three men should live." Kraft said the Apollo moon exploration program left a legacy showing that America could meet major technical challenges. "We can do anything we set our minds to." Kraft played a key role in developing the techniques and hardware that put American astronauts on the moon in the '60s. # EPA's chief grilled by House members WASHINGTON (AP) - Members of five House subcommittees, engaged at Reagan administration policies, accused the head of the Environmental Protection Agency Thursday of gutting enforcement programs and allowing industry to "call the shots." The five subcommittees, meeting in a rare joint session, grilled EPA Administrator Anne Gorsuch for five hours over her 14-month stewardship at the agency. In a 54-page defense, Mrs. Gorsuch denied the accusations of mismanagement and said she was committed to "environmental results, not environmental rhetoric." She said times had changed from when the EPA was created almost 12 years ago and that the changing circumstances required different ways of operating. "We have proposed changes ... that we have done so in good faith," she said. "At every turn, these changes have been misconstrued, often misinterpreted and even misstated." Democratic members of the committees questioned the agency's enforcement record since Mrs. Gorsuch took office. Rep. Albert Gore Jr., D-Tenn., cited statistics showing that referrals of cases from EPA to the Justice Department had dropped from 252 in 1980 to 78 in 1981. Mrs. Gorsuch said part of the decline resulted from a reorganization of the agency's enforcement branches which was now beginning to show results. She said since March the agency has processed 80 cases received from EPA's regional offices and sent 44 to the Justice Department. Mrs. Gorsuch was asked repeatedly about a meeting she held last December with representatives of Thriftway Co., a small New Mexico oil refiner. Participants at the meeting have given sworn statements that Mrs. Gorsuch promised that the refinery would not be found in violation of a regulation requiring less lead in gasoline because the agency was planning to change the rule. But Mrs. Gorsuch said, "I did not, nor have I ever recommended to anyone that they violate our environmental laws." Ms. Gorsuch said she had acted properly under a 1978 agency rule permitting the EPA to waive assessment of fines if such fines would force a company out of business. But members questioned whether this rule applied since no fine had been levied on the company. === Page 79 of 92 UFOs attack "higher ups" # House cites EPA's chief for contempt WASHINGTON (AP) - The House voted 259-105 Thursday night to cite Environmental Protection Agency chief Anne M. Gorsuch for contempt of Congress because she refused, on presidential orders, to turn over documents. She was the highest official ever charged in such a battle between the executive and legislative branches of governments. The action of the House followed more than two hours of debate and a day of fruitless negotiations between congressional leaders and the White House in search of a compromise. THE RESOLUTION goes to a federal grand jury, which can indict Mrs. Gorsuch for contempt, a criminal misdemeanor. Conviction in U.S. District Court carries a fine of up to $1,000 and a jail term of up to 1 year. The appeals that undoubtedly would follow conviction would ultimately go to the Supreme Court, which could make a binding decision on the rights of the executive and legislative branches in questions of executive privilege. Democrats voted overwhelmingly in favor of the contempt resolution. They were joined by almost one-third of the Republicans voting. Rep. James Howard, D-N.J., saying he was acting "with deep regret," offered the motion to cite Mrs. Gorsuch after the negotiations with President Reagan's aides broke down. "This is not a partisan issue," insisted Rep. Elliott H. Levitas, D-Ga., chairman of the subcommittee that originally subpoenaed the EPA documents. "This issue deals with the Constitution of the United States and the prerogatives of Congress." "WE HAVE GONE every step of the way to avoid a confrontation," said Levitas. But he argued that the investigative powers of Congress "will be crippled and destroyed if the contemptuous acts (in withholding documents) are left unpunished. We must take this grave, regrettable step." House Minority Leader Robert H. Michel, R-Ill., urged the House to reject the contempt resolution, although he said he agreed the issue raised "a very serious constitutional question." But Michel said the issue was being rushed and the subpoena contained technical flaws that threatened Congress' legal position. "This case is not ironclad," Michel said. "It should be put over" until Congress reconvenes. THE DEBATE WAS a rare floor battle over executive privilege - the power of Reagan, or any president, to keep Congress in the dark on certain issues. It followed a day of fruitless negotiations involving the White House, the Justice Department and congressional leaders in an attempt to avoid the unprecedent floor vote. ANNE M.

Rep. Elliott H. Levitas, D-Ga., said in a speech on the House floor that Smith "has failed to faithfully execute the law and is engaging in what in my opinion is an obstruction of justice" in refusing to prosecute contempt of Congress charges against the head of the Environmental Protection Agency. Levitas is chairman of the House Public Works subcommittee on investigations, which issued a subpoena for EPA documents on its enforcement of the $1.6 billion "superfund" program to clean up abandoned chemical waste dumps. EPA Administrator Anne M. Gorsuch, acting on President Reagan's orders, invoked executive privilege to withhold some of the documents. That position led the House last Thursday to vote 259-105 to cite Mrs. Gorsuch for contempt. However, the Justice Department has refused to prosecute the case, calling the contempt citation an unconstitutional intrusion on executive branch action.

(AP) - A state representative who became the object of a nationwide search after he disappeared last month turned himself in to police Friday night and was arraigned on embezzlement charges. Rep. Kevin McCarthy, 31, a Republican lawyer who lost his House seat in a bid for a sixth term in November, was arraigned on four counts of embezzlement and released on $4,000 personal recognizance, authorities said. McCarthy, who disappeared after his car was involved in a minor hit-and-run traffic accident Nov. 7, did not enter any pleas at his arraignment, Cpt. William DeFeo said. He is accused of embezzling $49,000 from four surviving children of Warren Deniston, a former Warwick reserve police officer who died Aug. 5. Deniston's children filed a civil suit last week in Kent County Superior Court alleging McCarthy fraudulently converted all but $5 of $49,500 they had given him as administrator of their father's estate. The money was from a $66,000 life insurance policy. Paul Sprague, the children's lawyer, said McCarthy set up an account in his own name with the money from the estate. The last withdrawal was made Dec. 8, when McCarthy wired the Fleet National Bank for $2,000 to be sent to him at a New York City bank, Sprague said.

WASHINGTON -- Secretary of the Navy John F. Lehman Jr., who pledged on joining the Reagan administration that he would sell his interests in a consulting company that does business with Pentagon contractors, did not sever all his connections with the company, according to public documents. After Lehman took office, a British peer paid him for the right to use the company's name, Abington Corp., in business overseas. But Lehman kept an option to reacquire the overseas business when he left the government, according to him and the peer, Lord Chalfont. Documents show that Lehman was not paid for the overseas operations until nine months after he joined the Reagan administration. The overseas business, using the Abington name, has continued to consult with American military contractors. Some of its client companies had been clients of Lehman, according to the companies. Some officials in Washington are questioning whether Lehman would eventually stand to gain from Abington's success overseas. Lehman retained the rights to operate Abington in the United States, but there is no indication that the company has done business in this country since he took office in January 1981. He said in an interview that he had received no salary or fees from military contractors since then. Since April 1981, Lehman has not disqualified himself from participating in Navy decisions affecting the Northrop Corp. and other former clients. At that time, he said, Abington became a holding company for his personal assets and he no longer had a financial interest in the clients or in Abington. Federal conflict-of-interest laws prohibit government employees from participating in decisions in which they have a personal financial interest. The Office of Government Ethics said it had approved Lehman's financial arrangements but had not reviewed the underlying documents. The office said it was now re-examining Lehman's transactions. Lehman's personal financial disclosure statement, filed this year with the Office of Government Ethics, indicates that he still owns Abington but lists it as a personal holding company. Records filed with the District of Columbia, however, still list Abington as a management consulting company. Asked why he did not sell Abington outright or at least change the name of his new holding company, Lehman, 40, replied that he had "wanted to keep the entity in being." "I had built up a highly respected name in Abington," he explained. "I retain the right to operate a consulting corporation called Abington. I wanted to keep the option of going back into the consulting business when I get out of government." UFO attack "higher ups" # Reagan's old home damaged DIXON, Ill.

There were no injuries in the fire, which was reported just after midnight Sunday. Damage was confined to the rear of the two-story frame house, which is owned by a non-profit organization. The home is a tourist attraction but had been closed for renovations. Police Chief Rich Dusing, Fire Chief John Carlson and the state fire marshal said in a statement that the fire had not been deliberately set and that faulty wiring was the apparent cause.

Chayo's body was found Dec. 11, 1965, in a weedy tract in Metairie. Lee said detectives believed he was killed two or three weeks earlier, after being robbed of about $1,400. Lee said investigators had no clue in Chayo's murder until John Sidote 44, walked up to a New York City policeman in 1977 and said he wanted to confess to some robbery-murders. The sheriff said Sidote said he and Foat -- then going by the name Virginia Galluzo -- had killed a man in New Orleans and the description of the killing matched that of Chayo. Lee said Sidote and Galluzo lived together for a time in New Orleans, later got married and subsequently divorced. He refused to say why they believe Foat is Virginia Galluzo.

His unexpected departure is the second from President Reagan's Cabinet in the last two weeks. Margaret Heckler, a Republican member of Congress from Massachusetts who was defeated in her re-election bid last November, was expected to be nominated to replace Schweiker, said administration sources who declined to be identified. Schweiker told reporters who gathered outside his McLean, Va. home that I have nothing for you tonight, but there will be an announcement tomorrow. That's all I can say for now. There was no answer at Mrs. Heckler's home in Wellesley, Mass. Two administration sources who spoke on the promise of anonymity said Schweiker would head the American Council on Life Insurance and had told the president he would leave about 10 days ago. Offices of that organization in Washington were closed. James A. Baker III, the chief of the White House staff, told reporters on arriving at the White House from a meeting that Schweiker was leaving because he got a wonderful job offer. He declined to elaborate. White House officials said an official announcement was scheduled for today. Reagan has not yet received the official letter of resignation, they said. The White House has been actively seeking to place more women in high positions. Elizabeth Dole last week was nominated to replace Drew Lewis as secretary of transportation. Lewis's resignation was announced Dec. 28. The other Cabinet changes saw Alexander M. Haig Jr. replaced as secretary of state last summer by George P. Shultz and James Edwards succeeded as energy secretary by Donald Hodel in November. Schweiker, 56, served two terms as a U.S. senator from Pennsylvania and did not run again in 1980 to return to the business interests that had made him a millionaire. As senator, Schweiker was Reagan's choice for the Republican vice presidential nomination in his unsuccessful campaign in 1976. Then he left the Senate, Schweiker was considered an expert in health because of his position as ranking member of the Labor and Human Resources Committee and its subcommittee on health. Those panels set policy and budget levels for the Health and Human Services Department. As secretary, Schweiker was generally conceded to have held his own in the administration's drive to cut domestic spending, particularly in social programs. He paid particular attention to health research, and the National Institutes of Health was spared budget cuts. Schweiker did extraordinarily well in resisting cuts in the budget for the 1984 fiscal year to be sent to Congress later this month, particularly in funds for the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control, said a de- (Continued on page 14) HECKLER Nomination expected SCHWEIKER Wonderful job offer Louisiana state senate president is found guilty NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- State Senate President Michael O'Keefe was convicted Saturday of mail fraud by a federal jury that one day earlier found him guilty on two counts of obstructing justice. O'Keefe, 52, said he would take an indefinite leave of absence as president of the Senate but continue to serve as a representative of New Orleans until his appeals have been exhausted. The U.S. District Court jury on Friday found him guilty of hiding $900,000 in the sale of an apartment complex by trying to influence a grand jury witness to change his testimony and by showing the panel a fake promissory note. He was convicted Saturday of causing false reports of the purchase price to be mailed to his partners in the $10.3 million sale. The mail fraud conviction carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $1,000 fine. The other two charges carry a total maximum penalty of $10,000 and 10 years. It was his second trial on the charges. In the first one, last summer, O'Keefe was convicted but a judge overturned the verdict, saying the prosecutor overstepped legal bounds in his closing arguments. O'Keefe, one of the owners of the 179-unit Meairie Towers, was accused of cheating five limited partners by arranging a $900,000 payment in the sale of the complex. U.S. Attorney John Volz said the payment, not reflected in the official purchase price, enabled the senator to avoid having to share the money. Brown resigns MX position New York Times WASHINGTON -- Former Secretary of Defense Harold Brown resigned Friday as a member of the advisory commission that President Reagan appointed to suggest solutions to the deadlocked MX intercontinental missile issue, saying that he did so to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest. Brown, a nuclear physicist and former Pentagon official who headed the Defense Department under President Carter, said in a telephone interview that his resignation did not arise from a substantive disagreement over the issue of how to base the proposed MX missile or other problems the 11-member President's Commission on Strategic Forces had been asked to consider. Brown said the problem arose from a contract for part time consultant services between Brown and the TRW Inc., which does engineering and gives technical advice. In a letter to Reagan Friday, Brown said, While not questioning the objectivity of the commission, some officials have questioned about whether my contract with TRW, Inc. might affect the objectivity of the commission's recommendations. He also disclosed that instead of using statutory authority to waive the conflict of interest law provisions, Reagan had delegated waiver authority to Secretary of Defense W. Weinberger, who in turn delegated authority to Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Richard D. Perle, former executive vice president of TRW. === Page 82 of 92 The 'Boll Weevil' turns into elephant BRYAN, Texas (AP) -- Rep. Phil Gramm, a "Boll Weevil" Democrat whose party ousted him from the House Budget Committee, resigned his seat Wednesday and said he would try to win it back in a special election as a Republican. "I recognize that my political future might, because of this action, go down into oblivion," said Gramm, 40, who was elected to his third term in November. "I do not know whether this is a wise decision but I do believe that it is an honest one." Republican Gov. Bill Clements, who accepted Gramm's resignation, set the special election for Feb. 12. Gramm was kicked off the budget committee by the Democratic leadership in Congress for championing President Reagan's economic programs. "I cannot in good conscience continue to work within a national party that seeks to limit my effectiveness on behalf of those I represent in its effort to perpetuate the spending spree which has crippled our nation, threatened our position of world leadership and robbed workers," said Gramm, a former economics professor. House Republican leaders would recommend Gramm continue on the Committee if he wins the election. Members of Congress to change parties at merely by declaring their allegiance. The last time a congressman switched parties was in 1965 when Rep. Albert W. Watson of South Carolina did. Democrats stripped him of his seniority for endorsing Republican presidential candidate Barry Goldwater over President Lyndon Johnson. Watson won back in a special election more than 2-1 margin. Gramm said he expects Democrats to "make an all-out defeat me." PHIL GRAMM Resigns House seat Bring in the guards after EPA brouhaha WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Reagan fired Rita Lavelle as assistant administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency on Monday, and guards with billy clubs stood outside her offices to bar removal of documents at the heart of a constitutional dispute between Congress and the Executive Branch. The firing was announced by the White House as a battle raged at the agency over whether Lavelle had quit or her resignation had been demanded by EPA Administrator Anne Gorsuch. Two of Lavelle's top aides also were fired. Some of the documents being guarded in her office were among those subpoenaed by a House subcommittee. It was the refusal of Gorsuch to turn over these documents which led to a contempt of Congress citation against the EPA chief. LAVELLE'S dismissal was disclosed in a one-sentence statement from the White House. "The appointment of Rita Lavelle as assistant administrator for solid waste and emergency response of the Environmental Protection Agency was terminated today at the direction of the president," it said. Clay Jones, the chief EPA spokesman, said the agency's chief of staff, John Daniel, ordered the guards outside Lavelle's offices to "safeguard all the materials and government property." "There is a lot of sensitive information in the office, including some of the documents that were withheld by Gorsuch," Jones said. Two of Lavelle's aides -- Warren Wood, her chief of staff, and Susan Baldyga, a special assistant -- also were given dismissal notices Monday. AIDES TO Lavelle, who headed the Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response, said she had not resigned -- as had been announced -- and was appealing her dismissal to the White House, where presidential counsel Edwin Meese III is a longtime friend. EPA spokesman Rusty Brashear said the agency was standing by a press release issued Friday in which Lavelle was quoted as saying she was resigning because she was "ready to get back to California." Neither Lavelle nor Gorsuch returned phone calls asking for comment. (Continued on page 3) Rita Lavelle says she did not resign from EPA job as announced last week Target of revenge, Rep. Wilson says WASHINGTON (AP) -- Rep. Charles Wilson said Friday he is confident of being cleared of allegations he used cocaine, and suggested he is the target of someone seeking revenge, perhaps out of jealousy of his free-wheeling life style. "I have a high profile, I'm single, I date a lot of women," he said. "If these allegations are coming from a staffer trying to get out of trouble himself, I would be a likely target. There might even be a little jealousy involved." A federal law enforcement source who responded to questions about the case only on the condition his name not be used said: "Yes, the grand jury has turned up allegations that Wilson used drugs and we are looking at them. But there is nothing yet substantive enough for an indictment." (Continued on page 2) === Page 83 of 92 UFOs attack "higher ups" # Reagan dismisses arms talks chief New York Times WASHINGTON -- President Reagan forced Eugene V. Rostow to resign as director of the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency Wednesday and said that Secretary of State George P. Shultz would play the principal role in coordinating the administration's arms control policies. As part of an overall shift in the management of arms control matters, Kenneth L. Adelman, the No. 2 official in the United Nations Mission, was chosen to replace Rostow as the head of the disarmament agency. David F. Emery, who had been a Republican congressman from Maine until he lost in the Senate election last year, was picked to be Adelman's deputy. Morton I. Abramowitz, a career foreign service officer, was also chosen to be the new ambassador to the negotiations in Vienna on East-West conventional force reductions. He will replace Richard Staar, whose resignation was demanded by the administration. WHITE HOUSE, State Department and arms control agency officials all said that the dismissal of Rostow and the other changes were not based on ideological or policy reasons, but rather were intended to end the fragmentation and chaos that had existed for months in the arms control bureaucracy. There were also personality clashes that contributed to the dismissal of Rostow. In particular, Rostow, 69, with a long and distinguished career in government and as the Yale Law School dean was openly at odds with the White House for not pursuing vigorously the confirmation in the Senate of his choice as the arms control agency deputy, Robert T. Grey, who had been opposed by conservative Republicans. Several White House and State Department aides complained that Rostow was not a team player and had predicted last week that he would be asked to resign. IN A STATEMENT issued by the White House, Reagan sought to stress his continued commitment to arms control. He said that as president "I have no higher priority or higher purpose than to reduce the risk and the means of conflict and to help bring a true peace with justice to the world we live in." "This administration has undertaken a broad agenda for peace, including special efforts in the Middle East, and a program of arms control more comprehensive and far-reaching than any other in our nation's history," he said. When Larry Speakes, the White House spokesman, was asked why Reagan forced Rostow's resignation, he replied: "I am not saying he did anything wrong. The president made the decision he wanted new people." REAGAN SAID THAT he was accepting Rostow's resignation "with regret," and said he had played "a key role" in launching the administration's arms control proposals. The shifts come at a time when the subject of arms control negotiations with the Soviet Union has moved to the center of East-West relations. Yuri V. Andropov, the new Soviet leader, has proposed several initiatives that American officials have said were aimed at splitting the United States from its Western allies. EUGENE V.

Lewis said he would assume the job of chairman and chief executive officer of troubled Warner-Amex Cable Communications, Inc. The company operates more than 140 cable television systems and is constructing additional systems in major cities. LEWIS, WHO FOR months had been rumored either to be in line for a higher assignment in the administration or to be planning a return to private business, said he was leaving for financial reasons.

Swigert, a former astronaut from Colorado who had circled the moon and was elected to the House of Representatives in November while suffering from cancer, died Monday night at the Lombardi Cancer Research Center of the Georgetown University Hospital in Washington, D.C. He was 51. Swigert, a Republican who was described by one of his chief campaign supporters as "a potent advocate for Ronald Reagan, a certified hero with a brain," had been flown to the cancer center a week earlier from his home in Littleton, Colo. He was to represent the newly designated 6th District, a U-shaped portion of the Denver suburbs. Gov. Richard Lamm of Colorado said he would call a special election to fill the vacancy. John L. Swigert was elected to House in November === Page 84 of 92 UFO Project + "Higher ups" # Government locked in fantasy ## By comparison, the Nixon White House beat this one S/Res 1/10/83 BOSTON -- Two years into the Reagan presidency, Americans are beginning to suspect the awful truth: They have a government incompetent to govern, a president frozen in ideological fantasyland, an administration spotted with fools and rogues. Anthony J. Lewis New York Times The unmistakable symptom of incompetence is the economic disarray in Washington. The United States government faces a deficit approaching $200 billion in the next fiscal year, more than double the previous record. How is the president going to deal with it? One month from his budget deadline, he has no serious idea. On this as on so many economic issues the Reagan administration sends out contradictory signals twice a week. It is going to speed up tax cuts -- no it isn't. It is going to raise taxes -- certainly not. It is going to make drastic cuts in domestic expenditure -- the president has changed his mind, or no he hasn't. Ronald Reagan came to office as the man who would take charge of the economy. Yet today there is a vacuum in executive leadership; the crucial economic policies are coming from Congress and the Federal Reserve. What has gone wrong? Rigidity is a large part of the explanation: an inability to adjust to facts. A president who drove a radical economic program through Congress refuses to see that the program is not working. And the denial of reality immobilizes him. Reagan told us, and believed, that he could create an economic boom, and balance the budget, by cutting taxes while spending more for arms and less for domestic needs. What we have instead is a severe recession, massive unemployment and record deficits. Confronted with the painful economic facts, the president waves them away. He will not face the real sources of fiscal trouble: the uncontrolled growth in military spending and the shrinking of the revenue base. To blame them, he says, is "dipsy-doodle" thinking. And so, reduced to tinkering, he strains to hold the deficit to a mere $175 billion. The pattern of evasion and ineptitude is disastrous to financial confidence. Even the president's natural backers are turning away. A Gallup poll of big business executives published in The Wall Street Journal shows that, in one year, those expressing "a great deal of confidence" in Reagan's economic leadership have fallen from 58 to 27 percent. His appointees share responsibility with the president for the economic mess. White House advisers and the administration's top economic officials have never broken through Reagan's fantasies. His Pentagon civilian appointees actually encourage illusion; the uniformed chiefs are now the realists on arms spending. What George Shultz has done for foreign policy in six months shows that is is possible to move this administration toward realism. But there is no equivalent on the domestic side, in economics or anything else: no voice of quiet reason in the president's councils. Instead we see ideology run riot and a gang of predators getting what they can out of the federal government. The perfect symbol of the administration in domestic affairs outside of economics is the Legal Services Corporation. For ideological reasons Reagan tried to abolish the program of legal help for the poor. When the country's establishment lawyers resisted and Congress said no, he appointed a Legal Services board that he hoped would subvert the program. When some members would not, he dropped them. Then it turned out that the new Legal Services president had negotiated himself a fat-cat contract including membership in a private club of his choice. He negotiated it with the chairman, an old friend of his. All that is supposed to be conservatism. Reading about some of the officials in this administration, you would think the Snopes family had all moved to Washington. A Reagan appointee to the Interstate Commerce Commission, Frederic Andre, said the ICC should do nothing about bribes in the trucking business because they are just "instances of the free market at work." The man Reagan chose to head the Veterans' Administration, Robert P. Nimmo, spent $54,183 redecorating his office and resigned just before an official report criticized him for misusing military aircraft and a government chauffeur. It is not just insensitivity. There is a deeper sense of departure from the standards that have made the federal government work reasonably well under presidents of both parties. The Justice Department which has for so long maintained a professional esprit, is a sad example under the California society lawyer who is now attorney general, William French Smith. A career lawyer at Justice remarks that he and others look back with nostalgia to the days of John Mitchell and Richard Kleindienst. That is where we are, halfway through Reagan's term: nostalgic for the Nixon administration. # New Hampshire governor dies 12/30/82 BOSTON (AP) -- New Hampshire Gov. Hugh Gallen died Wednesday of kidney and liver failure and complications from internal bleeding after being hospitalized for more than a month. Gallen, 58, was to have left office next week. Gallen died at 3:49 p.m. with his wife Irene and other family members at his bedside at Brigham and Women's Hospital, said Jennifer Murray, Gallen's news secretary in Concord. Gallen's fourth bout of internal bleeding Wednesday had been controlled temporarily, "but he succumbed despite intensive supportive therapy," Ms. Murray said. Records dating back to the late 1700s show Gallen was the first New Hampshire governor to die in office. Gallen, a Democrat, won office by defeating maverick Republican Meldrim Thomson in 1978, and defeated Thomson again in 1980. But he lost his bid for a third term in November to Republican John Sununu, whose inauguration is next Thursday. Senate President Vesta Roy, a Republican from Salem, has been acting governor. Gallen had been admitted to the hospital Nov. 20, and was listed in serious condition until Sunday morning. The two-term governor's chief of staff, Dayton Duncan, said Gallen bled twice internally Sunday, causing doctors to downgrade his condition to critical. Democratic Gov. Hugh Gallen, 58, was first N.H. governor to die in office That stomach bleeding was stopped, but the governor suffered bleeding in the back of his throat on Tuesday, then started bleeding in his stomach again Wednesday, aides said. As late as Tuesday evening, Gallen had been conscious and alert, Duncan said. Gallen was a self-made man who was a laborer and a truck driver before he became a car dealer, small-town banker and politician. In January 1979, he became the first Democratic governor of predominantly Republican New Hampshire in a decade. He held office during the state's worst fiscal crisis in years and insisted, during his final campaign, that the state badly needed tax reform. Gallen attributed his defeat in November largely to his refusal to pledge to veto a state sales or income tax if one was passed by the Legislature. In conceding to Sununu, who took "the pledge," Gallen said he had no regrets. === Page 85 of 92 attack "higher ups" THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW Sun., July 25, 1982, Spokane, Wash. # Watt says he's proud of letter By PHILIP SHABECOFF New York Times WASHINGTON - Interior Secretary James G. Watt said Saturday that he is "proud" of the letter he sent to the Israeli ambassador to Washington warning that opposition by Jewish American liberals to his energy program would weaken this country's "ability to be a good friend to Israel." The letter was called "unfortunate" by the White House press office Friday night, which also stated that it did not reflect this administration's policy. But Watt said in a telephone interview Saturday afternoon: "I stand by the letter. Its intentions were right and it was properly worded." Watt said, "The letter does not threaten anyone." He asserted that it was intended to point out that unless the United States reduces its dependence on foreign sources of energy and other minerals, it would not be economically or militarily strong enough to support friends such as Israel. "I am reaching out to every identifiable group in America, whether unions, the black community, East, West, North, South, Catholics, Protestants, Jews, gentiles," he declared, saying, "We need everyone's support to make America strong." BUT ANGRY REACTION to the letter flowed in Saturday from members of Congress, Jewish organizations and other critics. Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, D-N.Y., said, "James Watt should resign immediately for this act of bare-knuckled bigotry," and added: "If he does not, President Reagan should dismiss him immediately." "If he goes, and his departure awakens the country to the fact that ideologues of the radical right have taken over whole areas of American government, there may be some gain from this latest episode of bigotry and bullying," Moynihan said. "For the moment, however, our national honor has been smirched and I feel the shame we all feel," he said. Rep. Toby Moffett, D-Conn., said: "Mr. Watt's remarks were highly inappropriate and inflammatory. They suggest that America's foreign policy is in some way linked to 'Jewish' and 'liberal' support of the administration's energy policy. Although Watt is not secretary of state, he seems in this regard to have enunciated a new American foreign policy requiring supporters of Israel to back Watt's offshore drilling plan in order to win further assurances of United States support for Israel." THE DISCLOSURE of Watt's letter to the Israeli ambassador, Moshe Arens - first published last week in the Washington Times - comes at a time of uneasiness among American supporters of Israel about Reagan administration intentions. This uneasiness stems in part from the replacement of Alexander M. Haig Jr. as secretary of state by George P. Shultz, who comes out the Bechtel Group, a business organization with strong ties to the Arab world. Watt is seeking to build support of his program to accelerate development of the nation's natural resources, particularly his plan, announced earlier this week, to offer 1 billion acres of Outer Continental Shelf for leasing to oil and gas companies over the next five years. The lease offering would encompass virtually the entire coastal area of the United States. WEDNESDAY, Watt sent a letter to 28 members of Congress criticizing them for attacking his offshore program at a time "Israel was embroiled in a war concerning her own survival and a liberated Lebanon." The letter also stated that the offshore plan was crafted to "improve our national security, enhance our quality of life and environment, create jobs, and help America meet her commitments made in the Camp David Accords as well as commitments made to other foreign countries." Bertram H. Gold, executive vice president of the American Jewish Committee, issued a statement Saturday declaring, "Secretary Watt should go back to school for a refresher course on the American political system, for he seems to question the right of Americans that hold opinions different from his." HE ALSO NOTED that the committee has had a task force working for the past 10 years on ways to reduce the U.S. dependence on foreign oil. However, Hyman Bookbinder, the committee's Washington representative, said of Watt's letter to the Israeli ambassador: "I do not think too much should be made of this. It doesn't go to the core of the problems facing the country and the Jewish community." But Bookbinder did say, "I am concerned that Mr. Watt did not realize that if he had a message for the American Jewish community, he could simply have picked up the phone and talked to any of us instead of doing what he did. If he had, we would have been glad to tell him that we share his basic concerns about American energy independence and that we have been working on it for over a decade. This does not mean, of course, that we endorse every part of the administration's program." BOOKBINDER added that Watt's reference to Jewish liberals would be resented by many American Jews because of the "pejorative context" suggesting that American liberals do not care about the strength and economic power of this country. In Saturday's interview, Watt said while he stood by his letter, he could understand why the White House would describe it as "unfortunate." "The White House understands better than I do that there are forces in the United States that would take the letter and distort it for their own purposes." He said, "There still is an attempt by the liberal community to undermine our efforts to reduce our dependence on foreign sources of energy and minerals and we need to show them what the truth is." === Page 86 of 92 Weidenbaum still confident WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Reagan's departing chief economist, although conceding that the administration's latest economic forecast is too optimistic, said Friday he remains convinced that the end to the nation's deep recession "is in sight." Murray L. Weidenbaum, chairman of Reagan's Council of Economic Advisers, acknowledged that Reagan did not always heed his economic advice, but he disputed reports by associates that mounting unhappiness and frustration with his lack of influence lay behind his decision to leave. "When I gave my resignation to the president last week, it was because of my desire to return to Washington University" in St. Louis, where he taught before joining the administration, he told a group of reporters. nation Edwin Meese's son killed WASHINGTON (AP) -- Presidential counselor Edwin Meese III flew home from California on Friday to gather his family and make funeral arrangements for his 19-year-old son, Scott Robert Meese, who was killed late Thursday in an automobile accident. U.S. Park Police said Scott Meese, a sophomore at Princeton University, was fatally injured shortly before midnight when his car "failed to negotiate a turn" on a parkway that runs along the Virginia side of the Potomac River just outside Washington. Officer John Nawrot said the compact car in which young Meese was the only occupant skidded 330 feet and slammed into a tree. Scott Meese was one of three children of Edwin and Ursula Meese. In reply to other questions on the flight home, Reagan said the chairman of his Council of Economic Advisers, Murray Weidenbaum, was not resigning because of policy differences but because, like other academics in the administration, "there was just a limit to how long they could leave their real careers." REAGAN SAID he was "very saddened" by the death of Scott Meese, the 19-year-old son of presidential counselor Edwin Meese III. "He was a fine young man," Reagan said. "This is just a terrible tragedy." The youth was killed Thursday night in an automobile accident on the outskirts of Washington. When the elder Meese returned to the White House from California shortly after Reagan arrived from St. Louis, the president and Mrs. Reagan went immediately to his office to express their condolences. The 'Whizzer' shrugs off critic's two-fisted attack SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- A man screaming about "pornography and busing" ran onto a dais where U.S. Supreme Court Justice Byron White waited to give a speech Thursday and pummeled him with his fists before being subdued by onlookers. The 65-year-old justice, who suffered an abrasion on his cheek, had just been introduced as a speaker at a meeting of the Utah Bar Association at the Marriott Hotel about 11 a.m. Fred Graham, CBS News law correspondent, said White proceeded to give his speech on the relationship between federal and state courts. But before that, Graham said, "He said he got hit harder when he played against Utah in football." That was a reference to White's days as a college football star at the University of Colorado, where he got the nickname "Whizzer." Terry Knowles, FBI special agent in charge, said Newton C. Estes, 57, was charged with assault on a federal justice in a complaint authorized by the U.S. attorney's office. U.S. Magistrate Paul L. Badger set bail at $10,000 and Estes was being held in the Salt Lake City-County Jail. If convicted, he could serve a maximum sentence of three years in prison and be ordered to pay a $5,000 fine. Justice Byron White was pummeled from behind by a man who was unhappy with the Supreme Court's decisions on pornography and busing in recent years. === Page 87 of 92 UFOs attack "higher ups" SPREJ 1/22/83 # Baker sets sights on White House KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Senate Majority Leader Howard H. Baker Jr. of Tennessee announced Friday he will not seek re-election to a fourth term in 1984, freeing himself for a possible full-fledged run at the White House in 1988. Baker, 57, told an afternoon press conference at Knoxville's airport, that after serving in the Senate since 1966 he wants to return to private life for awhile. But he added, "I certainly do not plan to retire from politics." Baker said he has not decided whether he will run for president in 1988 and will not make his plans until after his Senate term ends. "I have made no secret that I would like to be president," he said. Baker urged President Reagan to seek re-election in 1984 and said he would work "actively and enthusiastically" for him. He said he would "maintain an active interest in GOP affairs." "There is no complicated reason for this but there is life after the Senate," he said. "And I intend to live that life. I certainly don't intend to retire from politics." "I have pledged my colleagues in the Senate and President Reagan that I will do my utmost to make sure that 1984 is a very prosperous year for Republicans," he said. Baker, responding to questions from a group of about 50 reporters, said he would not relinquish his majority leader's job or leave the Senate before his term expires. Earlier, in a written statement, Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana, a close friend of Baker's, said he "deeply regretted" his decision not to seek re-election. Lugar is chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee and managed Baker's brief bid for the 1980 presidential nomination. Since that effort, Baker had maintained a political committee capable of financing his travels around the country. Baker's decision to retire was reported more than a week ago, and neither he nor his aides took any steps to dispute the printed accounts. Instead, they sought only to discourage speculation that he was laying the groundwork for a challenge to Reagan for the 1984 GOP nomination. UFOs attack "higher ups" # One dies, seven hurt in Texas Capitol fire SPREJ 2/7/83 AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -- A fire that erupted in a "sea of flames" burned through an apartment in the century-old state Capitol before dawn Sunday, killing a guest of the lieutenant governor and injuring six firemen and a policeman. Kate Hobby, the lieutenant governor's 18-year-old daughter, escaped from the apartment without injury, as did a couple who take care of her show horses. Fire officials said the cause would not be known for days, but they said they suspected it started in an electrical appliance in a den of the apartment. Gov. Mark White, awakened by sirens in the neighborhood, rushed from the governor's mansion to the Capitol across the street and helped carry oxygen bottles to firemen battling the blaze. The dead man was identified as Matt Hansen, 23, a horse trainer from New Caney, Texas. He was one of four people who had been sleeping in the three-bedroom apartment that Lt. Gov Bill Hobby kept on the second floor of the historic domed building, behind the Senate chamber. Fireman dragged Hansen out of the middle bedroom and tried in vain to revive him. Capitol Police Lt. Dale Gentry said there were no visible burns on his body and he apparently died of smoke inhalation. Miss Hobby was asleep in another bedroom, and Hobby said she was saved by patrolman James Mitchell, who banged on her door. Another policeman, Joel Quintanilla, was overcome by smoke when a huge oak door to the apartment exploded because of intense heat and gas buildup. He was hospitalized in stable condition. "Quintanilla was apparently trying to get in because he heard hollering and yelling in the apartment," said Hobby press aide Bob Cargill. Miss Hobby described one room in the apartment as a "sea of flames." A Hobby aide described the den as "an inferno." The other two people in the apartment were James and Joan Waterman of New Caney, who take care of Miss Hobby's horses. They escaped through a back door. Officials did not estimate the dollar amount of damage, but several portraits were destroyed or damaged, and the back section of the apartment, which housed several antiques, was "complete destruction," said Hobby. A corner of the Senate chambers was blackened, but Hobby said the Senate would meet there today as scheduled. The fire, discovered by policemen who guard the building on a 24-hour basis, broke out about 5:30 a.m. === Page 88 of 92 UFOs attack "higher ups" # EPA whistleblower ready to loft more bombshells at White House SP Rev 2/18/83 WASHINGTON (AP) -- In a surprise turnabout, the administration reached a negotiated settlement Monday with a whistleblower at the Environmental Protection Agency, who said afterward he now has evidence that EPA misdeeds go all the way to the White House. Hugh Kaufman, whose allegations have triggered a half-dozen congressional investigations into EPA's $1.6 billion "superfund" program, called the settlement a victory both for him and for other agency employees who will be testifying before Congress in coming weeks. "This should send a signal to all EPA employees that they can get protection if they testify," Kaufman said. In the settlement, the EPA promised to obey all laws protecting employees' rights. The settlement, in a case in which Kaufman had charged the EPA with harassing him because of his accusations, comes amid a burgeoning scandal in which EPA Administrator Anne Gorsuch has been accused of contempt of Congress and a top agency official has been fired. Kaufman had originally said he expected a full-blown hearing Monday -- with as many as 20 EPA officials testifying -- that would provide further evidence of agency mismanagement of the superfund program to clean up the country's worst hazardous waste dumps. Instead, the government and Kaufman reached a settlement, and afterward the EPA employee said he would be turning over to Congress and the Justice Department evidence of a possible "criminal conspiracy" to silence him. Kaufman said his evidence shows that efforts to harass him began after the White House received complaints on his activities from chemical companies. "The White House communicated complaints from polluters about me to the EPA, and the EPA took adverse action against me as a result of those communications," Kaufman said. Kaufman said he did not have a "smoking gun" to prove the White House directed the EPA to harass him illegally, but he said "it was clear to the agency that the White House was unhappy." Kaufman did not name the officials at the White House who transmitted the chemical company complaints, but he said presidential counselor "Ed Meese and his deputy were at Rita Lavelle's swearing-in and held Meese held the Bible." Rita M. Lavelle, the head of the superfund program and Kaufman's (Continued on page 2) boss was fired by President Reagan last week. At the time Meese said he knew Lavelle only slightly. One of the allegations against Lavelle was that she had lied to a House subcommittee when she denied ordering an investigation in an effort to build a case to fire Kaufman. Since Lavelle's own dismissal five House subcommittees and one Senate committee have announced investigations into EPA's hazardous waste program. Some trace to Kaufman's charges of "sweetheart" deals to absolve polluters of liability and political favoritism in handing out superfund cleanup money. Lavelle has denied all charges of wrongdoing. She also told reporters Saturday that she also knew nothing about paper shredders that were brought into the hazardous waste division following the contempt of Congress citation against Gorsuch. The charge resulted because the EPA administrator -- on orders from Reagan -- refused to turn over superfund documents requested by congressional investigators. The office of Rep. Elliott H. Levitas, D-Ga., chairman of a subcommittee that subpoenaed the documents, said Monday it would be two or three days before Levitas decided whether to accept a White House compromise on the issue. Levitas said after the compromise offer this weekend that he wanted to discuss it with congressional leaders before deciding. Meanwhile, Rep. James Howard, D-N.J., chairman of the House Public Works Committee, announced that EPA General Counsel Robert Perry and Chief of Staff John Daniel will testify before his committee Tuesday on allegations that papers involved in the dispute may have been shredded. EPA attorneys refused to comment on their surprise decision to settle with Kaufman. Asked about Kaufman's allegations of criminal conspiracy to deprive Kaufman of his rights, EPA spokesman Chris Rice said, "We have no knowledge of any criminal wrongdoing. However, if Mr. Kaufman has evidence of a criminal act, it is his responsibility to turn that evidence over to the Department of Justice." # Driver claims federal car misused SP Rev 2/11/83 WASHINGTON (AP) -- Nancy Harvey Steorts, chairwoman of the Consumer Product Safety Commission, used an agency car to travel to the hairdresser, go shopping and for other personal errands, it was reported Thursday. Ms. Steorts' former driver, Michael A. Hager, told The Washington Post he had taken her to the hairdresser at least five times, made at least two trips to suburban Rockville, Md., from downtown Washington to deposit money in her bank, picked up dresses and drapery fabric for her and drove her daughter to the White House to visit friends. Hager, who left the agency in January after his temporary appointment expired, did not have a listed telephone number and could not be reached for comment. UFOs attack "higher ups" Anne Scherr, an agency spokeswoman, said she was trying to reach Ms. Steorts for comment. Under the appropriations law that finances the agency, no funds may be spent for transporting agency officials and staff members between home and office. "I would think that it certainly has to be looked at by someone," Donald Vitez, the General Service Administration's deputy assistant inspector general for investigations, said Thursday. "We'll at least follow up on this situation." Lowell Stockdale, acting director of the GSA's fleet management division, said that Ms. Steorts use of the car, as described by the driver, appeared to be improper, in his opinion. "They don't look like official business to me," he said. Vitez said allegations of wrongdoing are usually addressed by the agency involved. But he said he didn't know whether the CPSC had the capability to conduct that kind of investigation. "If it, in fact, involved a GSA car, it may be appropriate for us to" investigate, he said. In the fall of 1981, soon after she assumed the product safety chairmanship, Ms. Steorts ordered her driver to wear a coat and tie. When he said he couldn't afford to buy them, two agency officials bought him a suit. "That suit episode was too bad," agency spokesman Lou Brott said at the time. "It would have been easier if she (Ms. Steorts) had paid for it." === Page 89 of 92 FDR's son focus of investigation WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Social Security Administration said Friday it will ask postal authorities to investigate a fund-raising appeal by the eldest son of Franklin D. Roosevelt for a new "National Committee to Preserve Social Security." The appeal, sent by former Rep. James Roosevelt (left) of California in letters to 400,000 Americans in the past two weeks, dangles the prospect of offering low-cost group insurance against the collapse of the system that President Roosevelt founded in 1935. The letter also offers donors of $10 a free computer printout of their (Continued on page 5) FDR's son--(Continued from page 1)-- Social Security records, which is available at no cost anyway from the government. The four-page fund-raising letter, packaged with a petition to Congress to spare Social Security benefits and an application form for the "free personal confidential computer printout" of Social Security records, was prepared by Butcher Forde Consultants, a Newport Beach, Calif., direct-mail firm that has handled appeals for tax foe Howard Jarvis. Roosevelt, 75, said in a telephone interview from his Newport Beach office Thursday that the letter was not misleading "because I don't think a lot of people realize that they can themselves get it (the Social Security information)." "We're not charging them $10 to perform that service. ... We're charging them $10 if they want to join an organization to do something about Social Security," he said. The instructions for getting the Social Security printout state: "This free service is available only to those joining the National Committee." Paul B. Simmons, deputy commissioner of Social Security, said in a statement: "We intend to refer the letter to the postmaster general because there is a clear implication in the letter that the only way they can get the earning statement is sending $10 to this committee." Simmons said anyone can get the information free by filling out a post card available at local Social Security offices and sending in a name, signature and Social Security number. The agency encourages people to check their Social Security account records every three to four years. Simmons called the fund-raising letter "scurrilous and pathetic." Roosevelt's letter was mailed in an envelope emblazoned with a red headline: "URGENT! IMPORTANT SOCIAL SECURITY INFORMATION ENCLOSED." The letter lists a return address of a "National Administrative Office" at 325 Pennsylvania Avenue here. That is a mail drop in Video Plaza, a small movie rental shop that shares a storefront on Capitol Hill with a health food store. The letter makes no specific suggestions what to do about the system's financial problems. Roosevelt said in the interview that he has some ideas, "but I don't want to frankly talk about it at this stage of the game." Hawaii senator indicted HONOLULU (AP) -- A Hawaii state senator was indicted Friday along with members of his family and a former political aide in an alleged voter fraud case. Sen. Clifford Uwaine, 32, was indicted on two felony charges. An Oahu grand jury also returned indictments against Ross Segawa, a former Uwaine aide; Debbie Kawaoka, Uwaine's legislative secretary; Uwaine's wife, father, sister and brother-in-law; and an undetermined number of others. Segawa and Miss Kawaoka faced felony charges while others were cited for misdemeanor offenses. === Page 90 of 92 UFO Projects Jet fighter crashes AVON PARK, Fla. (AP) -- An F-16 jet fighter on a training mission crashed on a bombing range northeast of here Monday night, but it was not known if the pilot was injured, Air Force officials said. The single-seat Fighting Falcon crashed at Avon Park Air Force Range during a surface attack training mission, said Staff Sgt. James Weslowski of MacDill Air Force Base. ONE-DAY SPECIAL UFO Project Air Force maint. OFFUTT AIR FORCE BASE, Neb. (AP) -- Air Force B-52 bombers are safe aircraft, despite two recent crashes and do not carry nuclear weapons over American rooftops during routine training flights, the Strategic Air Command said Friday. Concern about whether the B-52 is safe enough to be armed with nuclear weapons has been revived since Thursday's crash of one of the aging, eight-engined bombers at Mather Air Force Base in California killed all nine crew members. There were no nuclear weapons aboard that plane, SAC said. faith in B-52 Nevertheless, the crash prompted Rep. Robert T. Matsui, D-Calif., whose district includes the base, to call for an inquiry into B-52 maintenance. Two weeks ago, a B-52 was destroyed by fire just after landing at Castle Air Force Base near Merced, 100 miles to the south. The crew escaped safely. "The flight safety rate of approximately one destroyed B-52 per 100,000 flying hours reflects very favorably on the aircraft's safety," said Col. Richard A. Patrick, SAC director of safety. He said an Air Force team has begun an inquiry into the cause of the crash that will take about two weeks. The right wing of the 450,000-pound bomber, the kind used in the Vietnam War, dipped shortly after takeoff at 8:45 a.m. PST from Mather, a base about 10 miles east of downtown Sacramento. James said the bomber and another just like it were on a "routine training mission," practicing what the Air Force calls "minimal interval takeoffs" or MITO. That means two bombers take off from the same runway seconds apart, as they would in a war alert. The bomber that crashed was the second of the pair, said Lt. Col. Mike Edwards of Mather. James said the plane and crew had made a similar flight the day before without incident. The five trainees aboard the plane were experienced pilots and navigators who were learning specific maneuvers with the B-52, said Clarence Fagan, a Mather spokesman. Names of the dead -- four instructors and five trainees -- were being withheld until relatives could be notified. "I saw the thing coming," said Mike Koewler, president of Sacramento Rendering Company, which is near the scene. "It was level. It looked to me like a normal takeoff, then it took a substantial drop in altitude to the point where you knew the guy was in deep trouble. "At the point of impact, it looked to me like the first thing to go was the tip of the right wing," he said. "Then the earth just shook like an earthquake, and then there was the explosion." Doomed B-52 pilot steers plane away from civilians SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) -- An Air Force B-52 bomber crashed in a muddy field and exploded just after taking off on a training flight Thursday, killing all nine crewmen. Witnesses said the pilot steered the plane away from buildings where more people might have died. No one was injured on the ground, although several farm animals were killed. The bomber carried no nuclear weapons nor ammunition, said Col. Gobel James, commander of Mather Air Force Base, where the plane took off, although other B-52s at the base are so armed. James said there was no communication between the pilot and the ground that he had any problem in the 45 seconds between the takeoff and the crash. FBI-chartered plane crashes, killing six MONTGOMERY, Ohio (AP) -- A plane chartered by the FBI crashed into a bookstore Thursday, killing all six men aboard, including a suspected embezzler who surfaced after being declared legally dead and was leading agents to the site of his buried loot. At least four people who were in the bookstore in this Cincinnati suburb were injured, including two in critical condition, authorities said. The FBI identified the dead as agents Terry B. Hereford, 34, Wheaton, Ill.; Robert W. Conners, 36, Naperville, Ill.; Michael J. Lynch, 35, Woodridge, Ill.; and Charles L. Ellington, 36, Naperville, Ill. Also killed were Patrick Daly, 68, a former Chicago policeman from Evergreen Park, Ill., and Carl H. Johnson, 48, a former bank executive accused of embezzling $615,000 from a Chicago bank in 1975. Alfred E. Smith, special agent in charge of the Cincinnati FBI office, said Conners and Hereford were qualified FBI pilots and were flying the twin-engine Cessna 411 when it crashed into the Sheppard Bookstore, a converted three-story frame home. Smith said Johnson, who had been declared legally dead just before surrendering to the FBI in Chicago earlier this month, had said he buried $50,000 of the stolen money in the Cincinnati area. He was leading agents to that site. "The object of our investigation today was for our agents to hook up with the agents coming in from Chicago and to be led to the site where this money was allegedly buried," Smith said. The crash occurred in a residential area about 10 miles from the Lunken Field airport. The plane was in the approach pattern to Lunken Field, officials said. It dropped so abruptly that it avoided hitting a house across the street from the bookstore, yet went under a 20-foot-high power line along the street slammed into the store near its foundation. Four charred cars remained in the bookstore parking lot, along with an aircraft engine, the only evidence of the craft that was visible as firemen battled the blaze for more than two hours. Witnesses said there was a whining sound before the plane crashed. "It was making a real funny noise and then a part fell off. He made a real hard bank, and we thought it was going to try to land here in the lot, or the Blue Ash airport, which is nearby," said Tom Jones, employee of a nearby auto dealer. "But he lost all power and went down, hitting some cars, and slid into the bookstore. The whole place immediately went up in flames," Jones said. National Transportation Safety Board investigators were at the scene Thursday afternoon. === Page 91 of 92 UFO Project (Rynke) # B-52 safety an issue after 3rd accident Staff and wire reports S.F. Rev. 1/29/83 The third accident involving a B-52G bomber in two months will not force any immediate changes at Fairchild Air Force Base or any other Strategic Air Command base, Air Force officials said Friday. A California congressman has called for an investigation into the safety of the 25-year-old bombers, but the Air Force said the plane has one of the best safety records of planes in service and that the three incidents were not similar. At Grand Forks Air Force Base in North Dakota, authorities said they recovered the bodies of five Air Force men from the wreckage of the bomber which exploded and burned Thursday morning. Lt. James Stratford, information officer at the base, said there were no classified documents on the plane and an earlier statement to that effect attributed to him was wrong. The report said the information was recovered from an ejection seat. The explosion was the third fiery accident involving a B-52G since early December. On Dec. 15, a bomber crashed on takeoff from Mather Air Force Base in California, killing all nine crew members. Two weeks earlier, a B-52 was destroyed by fire just after landing at Castle Air Force Base near Merced, Calif. The crew escaped safely. Rep. Robert Matsui, D-Calif., said he would call for an investigation into the safety of the B-52. Those bombers -- the G model, which was produced in the late 1950s, and the H model, produced in the early 1960s -- comprise the main body of the SAC fleet. There are 15 B-52Gs based at Fairchild. "We owe this to military personnel, whose safety and lives may be jeopardized by the aircraft, and we must assure ourselves that the B-52 fleet is still capable of its mission," Matsui said in Washington, D.C. A formal request for such an inquest has not been made, and Air Force officials at the Pentagon said they had no comment on Matsui's statements. But Capt. Virginia Pribyla, a Pentagon spokeswoman, said the B-52's record since the mid-1970s was above average for Air Force planes. The bombers averaged 1.6 accidents per 100,000 hours of flying time. Overall, Air Force planes averaged 2.3 accidents per 100,000 hours. "One shouldn't jump to the conclusion that because we've lost three in dissimilar accidents that there's something wrong with the B-52," she said. The only similarity between the accidents -- one landing, one taking off and one parked on the ground -- is that all three planes have burned, Pribyla said. "When you have that much fuel, and an ignition point, it's going to burn." Until December, the Air Force lost an average of one B-52 a year to accidents, Pribyla said. The Air Force is investigating all three accidents, but has ordered no changes at SAC bases. If procedural flaws are discovered, changes will be ordered. Investigations usually take several months, Pribyla said. There were no thoughts of grounding all B-52s while the inquiries are conducted, Pribyla said "We're talking about the strategic fleet of the country," she said. Officers from Fairchild will be on inquiry boards for each accident, said Lt. Jim O'Brien, base information officer. Thursday's explosion occurred as maintenance workers checked valves and other parts of the fuel system. It was under control in 15 minutes, but only the tail of the bomber was left intact, civilian fire officials said. The plane had flown a training mission Wednesday night and was undergoing routine maintenance when its fuel exploded, Grand Forks Air Force Base officials said. The plane was not carrying nuclear weapons. Damage was estimated at $38 million, the plane's replacement cost. Flags were flown at half-staff in the nearby communities of Grand Forks and East Grand Forks, Minn., in honor of the five fire victims. Eight people, including four firefighters, were injured in the blast. === Page 92 of 92 Sadat's wife rejected my offer # Relatives of Anwar Sadat jailed on corruption counts Sp News 2/13/83 CAIRO, Egypt (AP) -- Esmat Sadat, the half-brother of assassinated President Anwar Sadat, was sentenced Saturday to a year in jail after he and three of his sons were convicted of building a fortune through corruption. The ethics court also ordered one-year prison terms for the sons and the indefinite confiscation of wealth that the prosecution alleged was amassed through peddling, black marketeering, bribery and other offenses. "Authority has trespassed on justice," Sadat shouted when the court upheld the prosecutor's indictment following a three-month trial. He tried to calm sobbing female relatives. Male members of the family screamed as court president Ahmed Rifaat Khafagy read the verdict. Some of the estimated 300 spectators who packed the courtroom applauded. Sadat and his attorney said the ruling would be appealed. Prosecutor General Abdel-Kader Ahmed Aly had charged that Sadat, 59, and members of his immediate family had built a vast fortune "by illegitimate means" and had "committed acts harmful to the economic interests of the country." Aly's 24-count indictment was issued Dec. 15. It was based on legislation that had been introduced by President Sadat, who was slain in October 1981. The court declared that Esmat Sadat and his sons Galal, 37, Talaat, 29, and Mohammed Anwar, 27, be imprisoned for one year subject to renewal for similar periods up to five years depending on their behavior. But it ruled that the sentences for Esmat, Galal and Talaat began Oct. 28, when Aly ordered them detained. For Mohammed Anwar, the start of the sentence was Saturday. The court set no time-limit for the confiscation of property, which includes the assets of Sadat and his three jailed sons, Esmat's wife and three other sons, one daughter and two in-laws. During the trial, the prosecution said the Sadat family had gained a fortune worth about $150 million. Esmat Sadat once drove a bus and then turned to business when his brother became president. He insisted during the trial that his total wealth was no more than than $180,000. "It's a shame," he told reporters after hearing the verdict. NOTE: SEVERAL YEARS AGO I WROTE MRS.

The Earthquake Studies Office at Montana Tech said the strongest quake, measuring 4.4 on the Richter scale, was felt at 11:22 p.m. Tuesday in the Shelby, Cut Bank and Conrad areas. The smaller quake, measuring 3.6 on the Richter, was felt at 12:14 a.m. in the Three Forks and Manhattan areas. No damage was reported from either tremor. Dave Snyder of Manhattan said he was watching television when he heard a rumbling in the ground beneath his wood frame farmhouse. "I was sitting in the chair and it felt like a big boulder had rolled under the house," Snyder said. "I felt the house being shook and I rattled the dishes." The largest earthquake was one of the biggest recorded so far this year in Montana, said Michael Stickney, director of the Earthquake Studies Office in Butte. "We've recorded something like 150 earthquakes in the western part of Montana in January and most of them are small, less than 2 1/2," Stickney said.

His birth year was about 1920 and he would live as a physical person until 1987, a total of about 67 years. It is obvious that Ted had a very adequate diet of food and plenty play, exercise and work as a child. Later in life his physical stature was about six foot six inches (200cm) in height and about 250 pounds (115kg) in weight with plenty muscle and good bone structure. (Since Ted was living in a EuroRussian society in North America, among human baboons, it is possible that his physical size was predestined, a great advantage in persuading human baboons to have extra regard and respect for himself and his Higher Being friends.) Ted was probably quite healthy early in life and had above average intelligence with few if any psychological problems. Unfortunately Ted, like many other children of EuroRussian culture, never developed enough caution towards the use of drugs like alcohol. Also he was probably ignorant of the fact that people like many other mammals, have a vegetarian digestive system. Because of a lack of good childhood health education Ted's life was shortened by use of alcohol, eating meat and other unhealthy practices. It is possible that Ted was an Advanced Being (AB) before his birth on Earth and that SI's specially planted, monitored and guided part of his childhood. Sometimes children know they are special in certain ways related to AB's or have gifted talents. As a child Ted might have known he was to become one of the most unusual people to ever live on Earth. Ted rarely mentioned religious doctrine or dogma. He perhaps had an exposure to Christian Judaism as a child and knew about the historical characters such as Moses and Christ. (He would later claim to be a modern day Moses and that Christ was possibly one of the SI's). He probably went through the usual schooling for 12 years. However something terrible yet secretly necessary happened to Ted. He suffered horrific head injuries on several occasions. In one of these incidents Ted was the victim of violence perpetrated by other youths. Despite these extreme injuries Ted developed a very active, strong and healthy mind and brain. Ted probably never had severe mental or emotional illness due to the injuries. In summary Ted inherited a physical body with excellent genetic heritage, had a healthy childhood and enjoyed a fully functional physical, emotional, mental and Soulful start to life. At the boundary between childhood and adulthood Ted was like a worker or soldier fresh and ready for the fields of toil or battle. |Home| |Contents| |Search| |GuestBook| |DownLoad| Please Send Nature-Friendly Recycled Paper Mail to: Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

S. Geological Survey reported Saturday. The Survey's Water Resources Division said both streamflow in the river and ground-water reserves had increased in recent weeks. The quality of the water in the Delaware improved, too. **99 PCT. OF NORMAL** The average rainfall for October in the basin was 3.17 inches, or 99 percent of normal, the report said. But the fall ranged from 2.8 inches in the headwaters to 5 inches in the lower part of the basin. During the first half of November, an additional inch to an inch and a half of rain fell in most areas and brought surface moisture conditions up to normal, the division said. The increased flow in the Delaware caused the salt line--the point at which the tidal water is too salty for drinking--to recede 10 miles downstream from Paulsboro, N. J., to the Pennsylvania-Delaware state line. The dissolved-oxygen content of the river water--a pollution indicator--improved significantly, the report said. In the upper reaches of the river during the report period it had not changed significantly south of the Torresdale section of Philadelphia as of Nov. 14, the Water Resources office said. # Wet September 'Dented' Penna. Drought Pattern Bulletin Washington Bureau Washington, Oct. 11--Heavy rains during September have "severely dented" the water supply problem in Pennsylvania and the Northeastern United States, a government official reported Monday. The official, Henry Barksdale, a staff hydrologist for the U. S. Geological Survey, said the rain last month "provided a refreshing respite" to more than five years of lowering streamflows and ground water supplies. "If not broken," he explained, "the water supply problem has at least been severely dented." While warning that it is "too early to tell what the final outcome might be," Barksdale said that with the approaching end of the growing season, the water supply problem has "decreased substantially." "Even moderate precipitation would probably enable most threatened public water supplies to weather the remaining growing season, and probably the coming winter without serious problems," he added. In Pennsylvania, Barksdale said, "water supply conditions improved considerably, even though streamflows were still well below normal for the month of September." Most of the rain that fell in the state, he said, "was used in satisfying soil moisture deficiencies, and there was relatively little direct runoff into streams or recharge to ground water." "However, the seasonal decline of ground-water levels was reversed in several wells in the southeastern part of the state." Barksdale said water levels in most observation wells in the southeastern part of Pennsylvania "were still below average, and levels in two of these wells were at record low levels." He did not say where the two wells are located. He said that the "relatively minor recovery of the water table" indicates that an above-average rainfall is needed during the next several months "if we are to enter the next growing season with substantial reserves in storage beneath the water table." # '66 PRECIPITATION UP IN NORTHEAST ## But a 37-Inch Average Was Still 18% Below Normal WASHINGTON, Jan. 22 (AP)--More rain and snow fell in the Northeast last year than in any of the three preceding years, but the total sum was 18 per cent below normal, the Weather Bureau reported tonight. There is sufficient water to carry the area at least through this spring, but it is too early to tell whether the drought in the Northeast for more than five years will recur this summer, the bureau said. The bureau said the Northeast had 37 inches of precipitation during 1966, compared with its 44-inch norm. During 1965, rain and the water equivalent of snow totaled only 31 inches. Precipitation was near normal last year until mid-June, when there was a recurrence of the scant summer rainfall that has parched cropland. The dry spell was broken last year by heavy rains in September, the bureau said, but it observed that heavy rain in previous years offered short respite from the prolonged drought. "Thus, any conclusions on the termination of the drought must be made with caution," the bureau said. # Fall Rains Ease Drought in Northeast The drought-plagued Northeast now has enough moisture to hold it at least through the coming spring. But the Weather Bureau cautioned against any conclusion that the region's five-year drought is at long last over. "While 1966's dry spell was broken by heavy September rains," the bureau said, "it is too early to predict whether there could be a recurrence of the drought next summer." 1/22/67 # Forecaster Sees End Of Drought By WILLIAM A. GARRETT Courier-Post Bureau WASHINGTON--A break in the weather cycle that for four years has had the Northeast in the grip of a drought is regarded as "likely" by one of the nation's top forecasters. But Dr. Jerome Namias of the extended forecast division at the U.S. Weather Bureau says that meteorologists "do not understand sufficiently the complex phenomena" responsible for the drought to foretell just when it will pass into history. The bureau observed recently, after rains had drenched the Northeast several times, that the drought was at least bent, if not broken. Namias reports, in a bureau publication, that much more work will be necessary to verify scientific findings as to the drought's cause and this now is being helped by high-speed electronic computers. Vast upper-air currents, Namias theorizes, influenced the drying up of the Northeast in 1962-65, largely in spring and summer, and the wetting down of other regions. Most persistent feature of these winds was a southward dip in the so-called westerlies. Over the four-year period, Namias says, there was a deep, tropospheric trough off the Atlantic Coast. Below this, along the continental shelf, water was colder than normal. This, Namias ventures, may have resulted from a strengthened flow from Labrador. Air masses which draw heat # 2d Blizzard Strikes Through Plains States Chicago, March 23--(UPI)--The second blizzard to sweep the plains in three weeks paralyzed cities, closed schools and industries, and stranded hundreds of travelers today. At least seven deaths were blamed on the full-blown storm which swept out of the rockies and spread across Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska and Minnesota. Blizzard warnings were up for most of Iowa, Minnesota and western Wisconsin. A blustery cold wave was moving into Missouri and east Kansas. # Storm Lashes New England; Damage Heavy Boston, May 26--Hundreds of persons were evacuated from homes today when 14-foot tides flooded the New England coast as winds up to 75 miles an hour and rain lashed the region. Up to nine inches of snow fell inland. The sixth highest recorded tide since 1722 hit Massachusetts Bay, forcing hundreds of people to evacuate shore-front homes. Some roads, under two-feet of water, were closed to traffic. Nantucket received 7.07 inches of rain. About 100 expensive pleasure boats were wrecked in the Marblehead, Mass., harbor. Harbormaster Philip Clark described the storm "as bad as we've ever had and worse than the 1938 hurricane," which caused widespread destruction along the New England coast. On one large stone jetty, the storm left a pile of debris 50 feet across, pieces of wood no larger than a desk top, of what were once 20- to 30-foot boats. The Connecticut valley's lucrative tobacco crop was dealt a multi-million-dollar blow as the fast-moving storm swept through the fields like a scythe. Protective cheesecloth netting collapsed beneath the weight of snow, crushing the tender tobacco. # New England Hit By Snow, Gales BOSTON, May 25 (AP)--A late season gale with northeast winds gusting to 75 miles an hour buffeted the New England coast Thursday, bringing record cold temperatures, snow and a threat to property on Cape Cod and other coastal areas. Rangers at the Cape Cod National Seashore said winds of 75 miles an hour were clocked at Provincetown and 20-foot seas posed a threat to 30 miles of beaches and bluffs from Provincetown to Chatham. **ROADS FLOODED** Police reported only minor flooding. Some roads were underwater in low sections. The Coast Guard said one boat anchored in Chatham harbor had broken loose and run aground. Part of the town pier in North Dennis was washed away. Provincetown reported more than two inches of rain in 24 hours. Nantucket Island, south of the Cape, reported 2 1/4 inches in 18 hours. Cape Cod was faced with the threat of flooding and erosion when early morning high tides rolled in Friday with the thrust of the full moon. Ranger William C. Brown said the full moon would bring tides of about 2 to 3 feet above normal. **RECORD LOW** A temperature of 40, record low for the date, was noted in Boston at 7 P.M. The previous low was 41 in 1956. Montpelier, Vt., reported six inches of new snow on the ground at 8 P.M. Thursday. Record low temperatures were recorded as far south as Miami Beach, Fla. Sleet and hail were reported in the Boston area and a college baseball game in New Hampshire was snowed out. Snow plows plied the Mohawk Trail in the Massachusetts Berkshire Mountains on a section of scenic Route 2 between Greenfield and North Adams. Prof. Richard Southwick, a tobacco expert at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, said snow broke poles and nets used to protect the tobacco from the sun. The damage to the poles and nets, the costs of replacements and labor will run to $1 million, Southwick said. # Wind and Rain Push Mercury Down to 29° Summer-type thundershowers, coming in the midst of balmy spring weather, brought a touch of winter back to Greater Philadelphia today. The Weather Bureau's thermometer at International Airport registered a subfreezing low of 29 degrees at 4.40 this morning. This represented a 41-degree drop from a high of 70 at 1.15 P. M. yesterday. Light rain began falling here at 1.14 P. M. yesterday. The rain became heavier between 3.12 and 3.20 P. M. Another heavy shower between 4.16 and 4.23. **Gusts Up to 33 MPH** The rain was accompanied by thunder and lightning, and by winds gusting at 33 miles an hour. The rain ended at 7.05 P. M. The Weather Bureau measured the total precipitation at .51 of an inch. The rainstorm preceded a cold front which went through at 4.30 P. M., triggering the rapid drop in temperatures. At 3 P. M. the mercury was down to 64; at 4 to 58 and at 5 to 45. The drop to the low of 29 took place in a little more than 15 hours. **Power Failure** The storm was blamed for a short circuit which darkened more than 900 homes and business establishments in Pilgrim Gardens, Delaware County, for a half-hour beginning at 4.23 P. M. A signal on the Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines at Vernon Tower at Ashland, south of Haddonfield, was knocked out. A child's kite fell across some power lines in Cherry Hill. Power was cut off until workmen removed the kite. This caused a blackout at Kingston Estates for about half an hour, starting at 4.30 P. M. A snowstorm in Western Pennsylvania dumped nine inches in some areas yesterday. Pittsburgh measured a four-inch fall. # Water Reserves Boosted by Storm WASHINGTON, Feb. 7 (AP).--Tuesday's snowstorm deposited an equivalent of about 150 billion gallons of water on the Potomac River Basin above Washington, according to hydrologists of the U. S. Geological Survey. This is equal to about 10 percent of the Potomac's flow past Washington during all of 1966. Ewell Mohler, agency hydrologist, said that "a great benefit will result if there is an orderly and gradual melting of the snow" and that "if much of this precipitation percolates into the ground, a significant improvement will be made to the Potomac Basin's ground water reserves..."

Air masses which draw heat ## Wet September 'Dented' Penna. Drought Pattern Bulletin Washington Bureau WASHINGTON, Oct. 11-Heavy rains falling in September "definitely dented" the drought problem in Pennsylvania, the Northeastern United States, government officials reported today. The official, Henry Barkisdale, a staff hydrologist for the U. S. Geological Survey, said the rain last month "provided a refreshing respite" to many areas and helped to lower streamflows and ground water supplies. "If not broken," he explained, "the drought has been severely dented." While warning that it is too early to tell what the final outcome will be, Barkisdale said that with the approaching of the growing season, the water supply problem has "eased substantially." "Even moderate precipitation would probably enable most communities to get along without having to weather the remaining growing season, and probably the coming summer, without serious problems," he added. In Pennsylvania, Barkisdale said, water supply conditions improved considerably, even though streamflows were still well below normal for the month of September. Most of the rain that fell in the state, he said, "was used in ## Storm Lashes New England; Damage Heavy BOSTON, May 26-Hundreds of homes today when 14-foot tide flooded the New England coast and six inches of snow fell in land.

The bureau said, however, that heavy precipitation in some areas, particularly in the Middle Atlantic states, was limited to the fall months. A report on the Pennsylvania- Maryland-New Jersey-New York drought, which has been easing since last fall, said that in some areas, particularly in the Middle Atlantic states, precipitation was limited to the fall months. ## New England Hit By Snow, Gales By SR BOSTON, Jan. 22 (AP)-A late season gale with northeast winds gusting to 75 miles an hour buffeted the New England coast yesterday, bringing record cold temperatures, snow and rain to parts of Cape Cod and other coastal areas. Rangers at the Cape Cod National Seashore said winds of 50 miles an hour hit at Provincetown and 30-foot seas posed a threat to 50 miles of shoreline and the new Provincetown causeway.

They will also deal our seat of Government (The White House and Capitol Hill) a serious blow in the near future. The above to take place not later than September, 1966. (Only the time element was off a bit) Sept. 15, 1966, the West German submarine Hai suddenly sunk with its crew. Oct. 26, 1966, the J.S.S.

Also, on Nov. 5, 1966, President Johnson of the United States announced that he must have two operations performed at once; surgery. This was certainly a blow to our seat of government. Therefore it is my conviction that this 3-point prediction by Ted Owens has come about (although a few weeks late) in the exact order that he predicted it.

The Navy said the mishap occurred during a maneuvering exercise. The Nautilus, commissioned Sept. 30, 1954, suffered heavy damage on its sail, or tower, which was bent and twisted. It surfaced, it struck out for the Norfolk Naval Shipyard and has been put in underwater drydock for repairs. CARRIER DAMAGED The Oriskany, sister to the Essex, suffered a disastrous fire off Vietnam last month, killing 44 men. The Essex, a 27,100-ton carrier, was commissioned in 1942. It has been in the Atlantic Fleet since 1960. The Navy said the Essex was headed for "Yankee Station" off the coast of North Vietnam. Officials said the damage to the Essex was minor. Officials said the collision happened at 1:15 p.m. about 10 miles off the Virginia Capes. OCCURRED IN MORNING The Essex is based at Quonset Point, R.I. Officials said the collision happened at 1:15 p.m. about 10 miles off the Virginia Capes, N.C. A Navy spokesman said members of the submarine's crew were "shaken up" but not injured. Background Navy Has Rough Sailing! WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 (AP) - The U.S. Navy has had rough time in the way of accidents and collisions in the past few weeks. Thursday's collision of a nuclear submarine with an aircraft carrier off the Virginia Capes was at least the sixth accident involving Navy vessels since Oct. 26. Off the Vietnam coast, the attack aircraft carrier Oriskany caught fire and burned, killing 44 officers and pilots and 9 enlisted men. You have several hundred ships operating at sea, three big ones are supposed to happen, one high official said. The best you can hope is to take steps toward lessening the risk. Here are recent accidents: Oct. 26-Fire that broke out in a locker containing flares swept the Oriskany off Vietnam. The flames, from which U.S. gets flares in North Vietnam, had to be pulled off the "Yankee Station" and sent home for repairs. Nov. 2 - The submarine Tiru ran aground off a reef off the Coast of Australia and was stuck four days before it could be pulled away. None of the 60 men aboard was injured. Nov. 4 - The LST (Landing Ship, Transport) Chochutaw County rammed the top of the Bay Tunnel at Norfolk, Va., and had to be pulled away by two tugs. No injuries. Nov. 5 - The carrier Franklin D. Roosevelt operating in South China Seas, was hit by a fire which killed eight men. The carrier remained on station. Nov. 8 - Fire erupted in a storage room of the 24,000 ton aircraft transport, the Palo Alto, stationed at Pearl Harbor. No one was injured. The blaze was brought under control in three hours. Nov. 10 - The submarine Nautilus rammed the carrier Essex during a maneuver off the Virginia Capes. The sail, or periscope, of the atomic sub suffered extensive damage to a superstructure and surfacing was only one injury, possible a broken arm sustained by one of the crewmen. The Essex was not damaged. One of the Navy's more embarrassing incidents of recent months occurred in June, 1965, when a radar picket destroyer, the Frank Knox, ran aground off the coast of a reef in the South China Sea. The Navy later reprimanded the commander of the destroyer after a Coast Guard investigation. He was charged of negligence by failing to keep himself informed of the ship's position. Burned Carrier Is Home to Prepare for Next Round San Diego, Calif., Nov. 18 - The burned-out attack carrier Viet Nam Oriskany and her proud, weary men returned from war today to their homeport of San Diego, deemed by the loss of 51 men. Hand clapping and an estimated 2,000 wives, children and friends greeted the huge 42,000-ton carrier as it docked under gray skies. Forty-four men, including 25 officers, were victims of the tragic fire of Oct. 26. The Oriskany's fire still lingers on scorched walls of the hangar bay and living quarters. Ten other Oriskany pilots were lost on strike missions over a short period of time, said the skipper of the 21-year-old carrier, Capt. J. P. Iarrobino of Coronado, Calif., praising his ship's crew and ship's speed. The ship would not make its third, trip, ship goes to San Francisco for repairs, back to the Viet Nam war is gone. "The morale of the men is terrific," the skipper said. "This ship's performance was outstanding - not just outstanding, but great. "We were in a state of shock," Iarrobino said. "But we're digging." "We don't know whether I answer the bell for the next round." Inquiry Under Way After a week in San Diego the ship goes to San Francisco for three or four months of repair and overhaul, followed by another tour of war duty. Meanwhile, a board of inquiry investigating the Oriskany fire will take "roughly another two weeks to finish," Iarrobino said. was a malfunction of a flare or ourselves out now.

Therefore it is my conviction that this 3-point prediction by Ted Owens has come about (although a few weeks late) in the exact order that he predicted it. Sworn to and subscribed before me this 30th day of November, 1966 Zelda S. Hansell 29 S. Wyoming Ave. Ardmore, Pa. 19003 Notary Public, Ardmore, Montgomery County My Commission Expires April 2, 1969 Carrier Hit By Nautilus Under Sea Crewman Hurt, A-Sub's Tower Badly Damaged NORFOLK, Va., Nov. 10 (UPI) -- The world's first nuclear submarine, the Nautilus, rammed the aircraft carrier Essex while running submerged off the North Carolina coast Thursday, slightly injuring one crewman. The Nautilus, commissioned Sept. 21, 1954, suffered heavy damage to its conning tower, the Navy said, and immediately surfaced. It struck out for the New London, Conn., submarine base with an unidentified destroyer as its escort. CARRIER DAMAGED The 27,100-ton carrier, a 24-year-old antisubmarine warfare ship, was also damaged by the collision, the Navy reported. Reports from the carrier, commanded by Capt. E. W. Fly, said it took some water, but that it was under control. The Navy said the Essex was heading for the Naval Air Station at Norfolk. 20 The Evening Bulletin PHILADELPHIA, Friday, November 11, 1966 Johnson's Doctors Negotiate On a Site, Time for Surgery By LAWRENCE M. O'ROURKE Of The Bulletin Staff Johnson City, Tex., Nov. 11 -- Getting seven busy doctors to agree on a single time and place for surgery is a difficult task, even when the patient is President Johnson. Mr. Johnson apparently doesn't know when or in what hospital his abdomen and throat will be operated on. He hopes it will be early next week in the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio. That is only a half hour helicopter flight from his LBJ ranch. A high official in the Johnson Administration asserted that Mr. Johnson could fix the time and place if he wanted to. He could call the doctors on the phone and say 'be here at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning' and they'd come. But the President doesn't want to impose his will on the physicians. He wants them to decide, it was made clear through Dr. George G. Burkley of the White House staff. The complication arises from the schedules of the various doctors involved. Four are at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, one is in New York City, another is in Atlanta, and Dr. Burkley is with the President. Sources say that the operation will most likely take place at the U.S. Naval Hospital at Bethesda, Md., outside of Washington. Shoulder Soreness The President, resting more than normal and making up for lost sleep on his LBJ Ranch, feels fine despite a number of ailments. In addition to the abdominal and throat conditions which will be corrected by surgery, the President has felt soreness in his upper arms and shoulders. The White House said today that it is nothing serious, although it is unpleasant. Mr. Johnson has reportedly had rudeness to ease the discomfort. The doctors have checked out the soreness, White House assistant press secretary George C. Christian said, and found nothing serious. Christian said the President himself is at a loss to explain the soreness, which he first felt during his cutting wood. Sometime Next Week At a press conference yesterday on his front lawn on the LBJ ranch, the President said the surgery would be sometime next week. Surgeons will repair an abdominal defect at the lower end of a scar left in the lower abdomen left by gall bladder and kidney stone surgery a year ago. The surgery will involve the closing of an incisional hernia, which is a flaw in the abdominal wall. There is a lump at the site about the size of a golf ball. While Mr. Johnson is under anesthesia, a throat specialist will thin a soft tissue called a polyp from near the President's right vocal cord. The polyp will be examined immediately to determine if there is malignancy. The doctors say that nearly all polyps are non-malignant. Background Navy Has Rough Sailing WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 (AP). -- The Navy has had a tough time in the way of ocean safety in the past 16 days. Thursday's collision of a submerged submarine with a carrier in the Atlantic marked at least the sixth accident involving Navy vessels since Oct. 26, when a flash fire swept the aircraft carrier Oriskany off Vietnam. That fire claimed 44 men. "When you have several hundred ships operating at sea, these things are bound to happen," one high officer said. "The best you can hope to do is take steps toward preventing them." Here are recent accidents: Oct. 26 -- Fire that broke out in a locker containing flares swept the Oriskany off Vietnam. The flattop, from which U.S. jets strike at North Vietnam, had to be pulled off its "Yankee Station" and sent home for repairs. Nov. 2 -- The submarine Tiru ran aground on a reef in the Coral Sea off Australia and was stuck four days before it could be towed away. None of the 80 men aboard was injured. Nov. 5 -- The LST (Landing ship, transport) Churchill County rammed the top of the Bay Tunnel at Norfolk, Va., and had to be pulled away by two tugs. No injuries. Nov. 6 -- The carrier Franklin D. Roosevelt, operating in South China seas, was hit by a fire which killed eight men. The carrier remained on station. Nov. 7 -- Fire erupted in a storage room of the 24,000-ton aircraft transport ship Kula Gulf stationed at Pearl Harbor. No one was injured; the blaze was brought under control in three hours. Nov. 10 -- The submarine Nautilus rammed the carrier Essex during a maneuver 350 miles east of Wilmington, Del. The atomic sub suffered extensive damage to a super-structure but surfaced with only one injury, a possible broken arm sustained by one of the crewmen. The Essex was not seriously damaged. One of the Navy's more embarrassing incidents of recent months occurred in July, 1965, when a radar picket destroyer, the Frank Knox, was hung up for five weeks on a reef in the South China Sea. The Navy later reprimanded the commander of the destroyer after a court martial on charges of "negligently failing to keep himself informed of the ship's position." Burned Carrier Is Home to Prepare for Next Round San Diego, Calif., Nov. 16 -- (AP) -- The fire-scathed aircraft carrier Oriskany and her proud, weary men returned from war today, their home-coming saddened by the loss of 34 men. Band played and an estimated 2,000 wives, children and friends greeted the huge 42,000-ton carrier as it docked under gray skies. Forty-four men, including 25 pilots, were victims of the tragic Oct. 26 fire, evidence of which still lingers on scorched walls of the hangar bay and living quarters. Ten other Oriskany pilots were lost on strike missions over Viet Nam. Morale 'Terrific' The skipper of the 21-year-old carrier, Capt. J. H. Iarrobino of Coronado, Calif., praised his 3,500-man crew and said he hoped the ship would not miss its third rotation back to the Viet Nam war zone. "The morale of the men is terrific," the skipper said. "This ship's performance was really outstanding -- not just outstanding, but great. "We were in a state of shock for a short period of time," Iarrobino said. "But we're digging ourselves out now. This ship will answer the bell for the next round." Inquiry Under Way After a week in San Diego the ship goes to San Francisco for three or four months of repair and overhaul, followed by another tour of war duty. Meanwhile, a board of inquiry investigating all aspects of the fire will take "roughly another two weeks to finish," Iarrobino said. "We don't know whether it was a malfunction of a flare or personnel fault that caused the fire," the captain said. He said that as yet no disciplinary action has been taken against two men who were handling the magnesium illumination flares that triggered the three explosions.

For several years...I have been communicating with UFO intelligences, and can prove it absolutely. It is documented. Call Mr. Ed Ames, realtor in Brewer, Maine, and ask him if, when he invited me up there for two weeks (along with two other businessmen of that area, as my hosts) I didn't inform him that I would call down a UFO over the Brewer-Bangor area during that period of time, to be seen and reported in the newspapers...and one week later a flying saucer did in fact appear and scared a man and his wife...and was reported on the front page of the local newspaper there. Call Mr. Murray Zatman, a lawyer, 2441 Grahn Drive, Santa Rosa, California...for whom I worked for several years...and ask him if I didn't tell him that by communicating with my UFO contacts I would cause a massive east coast power blackout by June 21, 1967...and the 5-state blackout did in fact then appear on June 5, 1967. For him I also demonstrated the UFO intelligences' powers by producing a hurricane within a week, and guiding it, and other things as well. Mr. Lawrence Maddry, reporter for the Virginian-Pilot newspaper here in Virginia Beach just did an article on my work with UFO's (I've been desperately trying to get through the wall of governmental silence to the public, or somebody) -- and he confirmed that: (1) I actually stated on a TV program in Miami last summer that President Nixon was in danger of being kidnapped at his Key Biscayne home by Cubans (information given me by UFO intelligences)...and several weeks after that Cuban frogmen were in fact discovered placing Nixon's home under surveillance and a Cuban ambassador was thrown out of the United Nations for the plot. (2) I informed three responsible persons here in Norfolk that the UFO's would strike the last Apollo shot with lightning, in an effort to make the astronauts abort the trip...and lightning did in fact then strike the vehicle. (3) I gave a demonstration of how the UFO intelligences could control groups of men...by causing one certain football star to be thrown out of a pro football game in progress, while in the company of two top sports writers who asked to see it happen. As I say...Maddry called these people and checked it out for validity Mr. Jim Moseley, Box 163, Fort Lee, New Jersey, and Mr. Tim Beckley, 3 Courtland Street, New Brunswick, New Jersey...both of them UFO investigators and authors, will tell you that I have given documented demonstrations for them...requesting the UFO intelligences I am in contact with to produce certain results, miraculous results...which then came about. === **Filename: 7003.pdf** === Page 2 of 4 2 This all began (I have 200 confirmed, documented cases at this date...where I have informed responsible persons such as lawyers, govt. agencies, scientists, etc. in advance, in writing...that I would cause certain things to happen...such as end the 6-year drought that existed on the east coast several years ago, and end the killer-drought that was supposed to kill 4 million people in India several years ago... (which ended after I began documentation, and contacted the UFO intelligences am in contact with)...and many other things of like scope) ...it all began when my daughter, Lornie, and I were driving at dusk outside Dallas, Texas, and a cigar-shaped UFO came towards our car across a field...streaming brilliant colors behind it, silent as a shadow. It came toward our car, got close, then just vanished...as a light would turn off. We thought it took about 2 minutes. But when I checked my watch... we had lost an hour. An hour that can't be accounted for. It was a lonely road...and to my knowledge no other cars passed. Anyway...after that...all this phenomena began to happen. I've written two books about it: "How To Contact UFO's" Box 2228, Clarksburg, West Virginia, and "I Work For UFO Intelligences" at PK Enter. Inc., 600 Biscayne Boulevard, 9th Floor, Miami, Florida. These books would give you pretty much the entire story of it. All true, and can be checked out. Point is...I have been, and am now, working with greater power the world has ever witnessed...through my contact with these creatures...yet can do nothing about it. That is, I go on working at my mundane job in an office...keep on giving demonstrations of miraculous things...but the government pays no attention seemingly...

I certainly have no wish to throw away the letter and am glad to respond to your comments. Of course, I have no way at this time of knowing how to regard your claims, since I am not aware of the background you described and your part in the events which have occurred. But, I am interested in the possibilities. Enclosed you will find references which indicate my interest in ESP, hypnosis, and UFO research. I certainly am interested in corresponding with persons who experience UFO sightings and, particularly, persons who experience apparent communication with UFO occupants. Under separate cover, I am sending you copies of two short manuscripts which indicate my interest in the use of hypnosis in UFO research and which describe a study I have conducted with the cooperation of 63 persons who claim to receive "psychic impressions" of UFO phenomena. I hope the manuscripts are of interest to you and indicate that I am serious in my wish to cooperate with persons who experience these events and try to learn more about the meaning of the earth's surveillance by UFO occupants. I believe that some of the events which you describe might be an indication of precognition, that is, an awareness of future events before the actual occurrence. However, other experiences which you describe would certainly seem to be "something more" than precognition or psychic phenomena. I am interested in the two books which you have written and I plan to get copies of them. === **Filename: 7003.pdf** === Page 4 of 4 Mr. Ted Owens March 24, 1970 Page 2 Thus, without trying to reject or to accept your claims at this time, may I indicate to you that I am interested in the information which you present and I hope that you are able to continue your work and that someday the scientific community, as well ad the public, may show a greater interest in the possible relationship of ESP abilities and UFO phenomena.

Leo Sprinkle, Professor of Psychology University of Wyoming Box 3708, University Station Laramie, Wyoming 82070 Dear Dr. Sprinkle: Thank you for the courtesy of your answer...to MY most unbelievable letter. The facts are these...I'm the only human in the world...that can communicate with UFO intelligences and prove it, year in and year out...consistently. Documented. I actually amount to what could be called a "national treasure". I know that sounds bad, but it is true, nonetheless. Am currently giving a demonstration...it began several months ago and is a world-wide weather demonstration. It will be documented by most respected and responsible people. And the results already have been scary enough to make your hair stand on end. Trouble is...you are there and I am here. You can't see my records or documentation, or check with my contacts. Awkward. I have, for the past several years, approached this whole matter in a strictly scientific vein. No "mystical" approach to it. My proof is proof, and can be checked out. Have you heard of Otto Binder, the author? He is doing a two-part story on my work in Saga Magazine...will come out in July and August. Then you can really find out all about it. He puts it much better than I can...he's checked me out thoroughly (his credentials for this sort of thing are awesome) and am sure when you read his articles, you will gain a better understanding. Perhaps then...you might be more activated, or motivated, to do something about the situation. If you will just lightly consider...I have more power at my command, through my contact with UFO intelligences...than all the power of all the world's armed forces. Easily. Sounds like a mental case? True. Unfortunately for scientists, it is all documented. The power has been seen already, and confirmed by reputable people. Lawyers, etc. Precognition is out...otherwise how could I tell where and when a UFO would appear...as I have done on numerous occasions? More important...what the UFO would do, its actions. I don't care whether you accept or reject my claims.* I just hope that you are a good scientist...good enough to dig into the matter, someday *backed up by a logjam of documented proof Best wishes to you....

I am interested in your work and I would be pleased if, someday, I have the opportunity of investigating your abilities and powers. Yes, I have heard of Otto Binder, and I am very much interested in his writings. I have some of his books regarding UFO phenomena. I will look forward to reading his article in SAGA concerning his work with you. I have now received and read your book, "How to Contact Space People." I have ordered a copy of your other book, and I look forward to reading it when I have received it. I find your experiences to be most interesting and I can see that you wish to provide other people with information, not only to back up your claims, but also to encourage the interested person to try similar methods. At this point, I can neither accept nor reject the proof of your claims, but I can say that I am interested in learning more about the methods by which you communicate with the space people. I certainly am prepared to believe the possibility that the proof is sufficiently an indication of your ability to communicate and to cooperate with space people. Perhaps, there may come a time when financial support will be provided for those persons who wish to investigate the possible relationships of ESP, hypnosis, and UFO phenomena. I certainly am interested in these investigations and will be pleased to continue correspondence with you.

I like your style. Thanks for your letter of the 20th... I think there is some hope for you, as a scientist, Leo. Most of the scientists I have known, Leo...are prisoners of politics, of government agencies, of monies available to them...and so on...which has placed them in such a situation or situations that truth is almost a stranger to them. This is unfortunate, but it is true. One of the best known scientists in the world...whom I know personally...has been a victim of that situation. And of course...truth as such is all there is, to a true scientist. He or she can't afford to be a prisoner of anything...which might be a wall between he or she and the truth. Is it not so? I was deliberately sassy in my last letter, Leo, to find out what sort of metal you're made of. Long years ago I studied kodokwan judo from Johnny Osako in Chicago...he's one of the world's greats...and in my first teaching session he threw me around unmercifully and deliberately sprained my larynx. I couldn't talk for a week. But I was back the next day for my regular lesson, after being so injured. That's what he wanted to find out. He told me quite frankly that he did that with everyone...hurt them painfully during the first teaching sessions...to see if they would come back. When they did...then there was some hope that they might learn proper judo methods (which is a religion with the Japanese, not just a sport). Of course...the book in your possession now...is just a tiny portion of the miracles that have occurred. 200 have occurred by now. Most of them documented; checkable. And they've all been done while I've been broke, fighting just to make a living for my family. Without a "base" to work from. Sometimes I wonder just how much more I could have done...if I'd had a base (home and financial support from some source) from which to maneuver this UFO-power lever! Let's be friends. I'm happy to know you. We certainly have a rapport. I've been waiting...for several years...for some honest-to-god scientist to realize what it is that I have, and set the entire thing up for a study. When SAGA comes out in July and August, read the articles...then if you're interested perhaps you can find a rich rancher or donor (such as supported Dr. Rhine's parapsych lab at Duke for so long) who will bring me out there to live with my wife and child. Who'll perhaps fund me in the starting of my own church, so that I can use these tremendous powers to help people (who will come from all over the world)...and you and your fellow scientists will then be welcome to put me through every test imaginable; and I'll bring UFO's over...and perform miracles for you and your group regularly...just as I have been doing the past 7 years, approximating 30 miracles a year. Owens 209 75th Va Beach, Va. === **Filename: 7004.pdf** === Page 4 of 4 April 29, 1970 Dear Leo: I wrote you yesterday...but now can write you in a different vein. We leased our house here for a limited time...and in a few weeks we must move. I have no deeply-rooted job here at all. Just a temporary thing I picked up. Here is what I suggest. I would like to come to Laramie; rent a small, inexpensive apartment or house; get a job there...and live there with my wife and 7-year-old child. Then you could test me to your heart's content...my regular ESP abilities (PK demonstrations, etc.)...my ability with hypnosis and autohypnosis...but most of all, my ability to communicate with the UFO intelligences and PRODUCE PHENOMENA FOR YOU. I could show you how to control weather and end droughts, wherever you might designate; how to control and guide hurricanes...and on and on through dozens of major phenomena. Which I have already done and documented, I might add. But you would have it all right there...where you could observe, test, and so forth. Of course, this would be priceless for you. What I would need, within the next week, would be $500 from you...to buy an old used car, and make the move. That would be enough to also find a place there and get started. I know professors do not have that much money on hand...but professors sometimes know people who do have it, who will provide it, if the situation warrants it. But time is of the essence, since I have to decide what I am going to do next. If you would like this to happen, send the money as soon as possible...and we will be in Laramie shortly.

Leo Sprinkle, Professor of Psychology University of Wyoming Box 3708, University Station Laramie, Wyoming 82070 Dear Dr. Sprinkle: Thank you for the courtesy of your answer...to my most unbelievable letter. The facts are these...I'm the only human in the world...that can communicate with UFO intelligences and prove it, year in and year out...consistently. Documented. I actually amount to what could be called a "national treasure". I know that sounds bad, but it is true, nonetheless. Am currently giving a demonstration...it began several months ago and is a world-wide weather demonstration. It will be documented by most respected and responsible people. And the results already have been scary enough to make your hair stand on end. Trouble is...you are there and I am here. You can't see my records or documentation, or check with my contacts. Awkward. I have, for the past several years, approached this whole matter in a strictly scientific vein. No "mystical" approach to it. My proof is proof, and can be checked out. Have you heard of Otto Binder, the author? He is doing a two-part story on my work in Saga Magazine...will come out in July and August. Then you can really find out all about it. He puts it much better than I can...he's checked me out thoroughly (his credentials for this sort of thing are awesome) and am sure when you read his articles, you will gain a better understanding. Perhaps then...you might be more activated, or motivated, to do something about the situation. If you will just lightly consider...I have more power at my command, through my contact with UFO intelligences...than all the power of all the world's armed forces. Easily. Sounds like a mental case? True. Unfortunately for scientists, it is all documented. The power has been seen already, and confirmed by reputable people. Lawyers, etc. Precognition is out...otherwise how could I tell where and when a UFO would appear...as I have done on numerous occasions? More important...what the UFO would do, its actions. I don't care whether you accept or reject my claims.* I just hope that you are a good scientist...good enough to dig into the matter, someday *backed up by a logjam of documented proof Best wishes to you....

I am interested in your work and I would be pleased if, someday, I have the opportunity of investigating your abilities and powers. Yes, I have heard of Otto Binder, and I am very much interested in his writings. I have some of his books regarding UFO phenomena. I will look forward to reading his article in SAGA concerning his work with you. I have now received and read your book, "How to Contact Space People." I have ordered a copy of your other book, and I look forward to reading it when I have received it. I find your experiences to be most interesting and I can see that you wish to provide other people with information, not only to back up your claims, but also to encourage the interested person to try similar methods. At this point, I can neither accept nor reject the proof of your claims, but I can say that I am interested in learning more about the methods by which you communicate with the space people. I certainly am prepared to believe the possibility that the proof is sufficient of your ability to communicate and to cooperate with space people. Perhaps, there may come a time when financial support will be provided for those persons who wish to investigate the possible relationships of ESP, hypnosis, and UFO phenomena. I certainly am interested in these investigations and will be pleased to continue correspondence with you. Best wishes to you in your work and your attempts to provide evidence for interested persons. Sincerely, R.

I think there is some hope for you, as a scientist, Leo. Most of the scientists I have known, Leo...are prisoners of politics, of government agencies, of monies available and so on...which has placed them in such a situation or situations that truth is almost a stranger to them. This is unfortunate, but it is true. One of the best known scientists in the world...whom I know personally...has been a victim of that situation. And of course...truth as such is all there is, to a true scientist. He or she can't afford to be a prisoner of anything...which might be a wall between he or she and the truth. Is it not so? I was deliberately sassy in my last letter, Leo, to find out what sort of metal you're made of. Long years ago I studied kodokwan judo from Johnny Osako in Chicago...he's one of the world's greats...and in my first teaching session he threw me around unmercifully and deliberately sprained my larynx. I couldn't talk for a week. But I was back the next day for my regular lesson, after being so injured. That's what he wanted to find out.

Since I wrote to you...my files are crammed with articles of floods and earthquakes and so on...and in the newsclips of most of them are the description "unprecedented floods" or "worst earthquake in 100 years" and so on. Over and over for different catastrophes. The latest demonstration, of course, was in Peru. Today the Si's communicated with me...and said that they want to do something unusual to get the U.S. Government's attention and interest...so they are going to do something in or around the area of Washington, D.C., in the near future. They will not tell me what. My guess...would be the appearances of many UFO's in that area. But that's only a guess. They also said to tell you...that they are going to make an object lesson of the lower, (Miami) Florida area in the near future, for reasons of their own. My guess is...they will strike it with a hurricane this season, or a bunch of tornados like recently in Lubbock, Texas. Something like that. They are trying to show us humans their "muscle" just as we have been trying to impress North Vietnam, and the rest of the world...with our "muscle" or military power. Of course, we have no powers that even begin to compare with the depth and scope of the Si powers. I don't know if I sent you my recent predictions of what is going to happen to the United States in the future, or not. If not, and you want the manuscript, let me know and will send it to you. I did it once before in 1967...and was very accurate in predicting what has since occurred, since that time.

I agree with you that a true scientist is one who searches for truth, and other considerations should be secondary. I can appreciate your "testing" in your other letter, and your wish to learn if I can respond appropriately to your comments. I can note from your letter that you are sophisticated and experienced in many ways, as well as those events described in your book. I look forward to reading the articles about you in the July and August issues of SAGA. I appreciate your wish to find some stable financial resources, so that you can continue your work and can offer assistance and information to interested persons. I regret that I am unable to provide the kind of financial assistance which would be helpful to you at the present time. This is not only because I do not have the available funds, but also because of the same kind of consideration which you mentioned in regard to the search for truth. I face the same kind of situation as you do; the wish to provide other people with knowledge and information which might lead to a better understanding of UFO phenomena. My own situation is complicated because I recognize the implications in ESP, hypnosis, and UFO phenomena. The difficulty, of course, is that these related phenomena are gaining some acceptance in the traditional approaches of science, and yet they do not have the general acceptance that I believe they will in a few years. Thus, anyone who wishes to achieve recognition of these kinds of knowledge must be ready to recognize that the time is not yet ripe for such acceptance (just as you recognize that in Judo, "going with" the force of the opponent is sometime more advisable than trying to "stop" the oncoming blow). === **Page: 2 of 2** Mr. Ted Owens May 5, 1970 Page 2 I do believe that some day there will be financial support available to interested persons, and I hope that this will provide an ongoing research center to study the relationships of psychical and UFO phenomena.

Haven't facilities for copying. Ted. I have just concluded putting on an absolutely air-tight demonstration, proof-wise, of my ability to communicate with UFO entities and bring about an effect. It could not conceivably be labeled a "coincidence" or anything else. As I say, it is as air-tight as a genuine scientific experiment could be, were it one, which of course it is not, since I am a layman. What would your reaction be...if you were the Editor of a very large newspaper...there was a local drought...crops were in danger of dying...and a man wrote in and said that he would deliberately make a storm for the area, within a week's time...and as proof that it was caused by him, the storm would be marked by a savage lightning attack? Then it follows...that in 5 days, on the 5th day thereafter...a devastating storm strikes this area, specified....it is marked by an absolutely savage lightning attack, lighting striking houses, striking powerlines and knocking out power in 10,000 homes...lightning striking a huge oil building and sending up a "fireball" when it explodes. And...the corn crop which was in great danger, is now "saved" according to the newspapers from the 4 inch rainfall ensuing from the storm. I'll tell you what the Editor's reaction was, here in Norfolk/Virginia Beach. Absolutely nothing. Not a word of it to the public. That is how completely my "miracles" are kept a secret. Following is a copy of my letter to the Editor of the Ledger-Star (4565 Virginia Beach Blvd., Virginia Beach, Virginia, Phone 625-1431) before, 5 days before, the storm struck: Dear Sir: Maddry and Bonko have both mentioned me previously in their columns. Tonight I read in your paper that this area is in a serious drought condition...that within two weeks the corn crop can be a disaster, as well as other crops, etc. Not much rain in months. All right. I was quite successful in Phila. in causing it to rain...and Maddry saw the articles in the papers on it. I notified the papers by letters, like this one...and then brought the rain in...and this during the 6-year drought then on at that time. I'm going to do this: (1) Try to make it rain her substantially within one week from now. (2) Try to keep it raining here in the Norfolk/Virginia Beach area all the summer long. (3) Try to give this area such a drenching, soaking and pouring-down as to be almost beyond belief...the wettest summer on record here...more rain...etc. (4) It will be marked (the storms, that is) with my own personal trademark...heavy lightning attacks. (5) I will try to bring up a hurricane from lower Florida to this area, or near this area...and draw more rain from it to here. Am not writing you this letter...to get any publicity...but to let you know, when it happens, what caused it. Maddry was skeptical of my work, I'm afraid, and would like to give him a sort of demonstration." Am enclosing the newsclips showing the terrific scope of the storm, as well as the documentation of confirmation from the court reporter, Mrs. Dyer, here in Rm. 401, Plaza One Bldg., Norfolk, Va., phone 625-5848. A cleaner, more powerful demonstration of my link with the Si's...you couldn't find. Ted Owens, (PK Man) === **Filename: 7006.pdf** === Page 2 of 21 June 22, 1970, Monday TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN Last Tuesday, June 16, 1970, Mr. Ted Owens, known as "PK Man", gave me in writing a prediction that he would bring about, within one week's time, a substantial rainstorm. Furthermore, he additionally promised that the rainstorm would be marked by spectacular lightning display... which he terms his "trademark." The foundation for all of this...was an article which appeared in the Ledger-Star newspaper of Norfolk to the effect that there had been no rainfall for two months and that unless rainfall occurred...there would be a disaster for the crops in this area. Mr. Owens decided, he said, to save the crops for the farmers here. Yesterday, Sunday, June 21, 1970, there was a devastating storm in this Norfolk area...more than a half-inch of rain fell...winds of over 65 miles per hour...boats were grounded...roofs were blown off of buildings...cars were blown off roads...and lightning struck everywhere at houses, power lines, etc. Lightning in fact knocked out the power in various portions of Norfolk. Lightning also struck a huge oil tank and the resulting explosion sent up a "fireball". Therefore I do confirm herein that Mr. Owens' prediction last week was entirely accurate, and has come to pass within the one-week time limit that he imposed. I certify this to be a true and accurate statement of fact. NIKI DYER, Court Reporter Plaza One Building Norfolk, Virginia. # Rain Saves Tri-County Corn Crop 6/23/70 SUFFOLK -- Farm authorities said Monday that while Sunday's rain played favorites in the Tri-County area, it played an important part in saving the year's corn crop. Rainfall ranged from 1.5 inches in Isle of Wight County, to .4 inches in Holland, and to a low of .18 inches in Suffolk. Robert Goerger, assistant agricultural agent in Isle of Wight County, said the rain did "a lot of good. It saved the corn crop, for it was about gone." While Sunday's rain was a good start, Goerger added, "we'll need more to keep the corn going. We could use a couple more inches of a gentle rain." Weather recorders at the Tidewater Research Station in Holland said the 4-inch rainfall helped Nansemond County crops a little "but not a great deal." === **Filename: 7006.pdf** === Page 3 of 21 June 20, 1970..........TO ALL CONTACTS Dr. Sprinkle I bring you very good news. Through the past few years you've seen me write in advance...that I would cause this major power blackout, produce multiple hurricanes for the season, end the drought on the East Coast, end the killer-drought in India...and so on and on and on. Now, at long last, two top scientists have checked me out, my work out...and I have letters from them stating that they are willing to be one of my regular Contacts and observe this continuing "PK"/Si phenomena as it occurs. I deeply regret that they were not in on all the earlier miracles...but, better late than never, as the saying goes. They will now watch, objectively...not disbelieving, not believing...but being the top scientists that they are, in the U.S., constantly observing what the Si's are doing to prove their (Si) reality and their communication with me as their human observer. These two scientists are: Dr. Leo Sprinkle University of Wyoming Dr. J. Allen Hynek Northwestern University It is entirely possible...that with these two eminent gentlemen coming into this action as observers...that in the near time ahead...we may be communicating with the Si's face to face, somehow, somewhere. Which, of course, has been my goal all along. (2) On June 16, 1970, an article appeared in the Ledger-Star newspaper here...to the effect that this area is in a terrible drought. Naturally, seeing this, I contacted the Si's, and they gave the go-ahead. (Remember the chain of storms I made in Phila. and it was confirmed in the newspaper story there? As well as other places; Miami, Florida, more recently.) So I gave Mrs. Niki Dyer, a court-reporter in this office, a document stating (1) I would make it rain substantially here in this area within one week from 6/16; (2) I would keep it raining here in this area all the summer long; (3) I would give this area such a soaking as to be almost beyond belief; (4) It would all be marked, the storms, with my own personal trademark...heavy lightning attacks; (5) I will try to bring a hurricane up from lower Florida this season...to shed more rain on this area. Now: I also sent this notice to the Editor of the Ledger-Star. Since that time...this area has had two night-storms, and today a rocking-socking rainstorm accompanied by spectacular lightning! I want to quote you from that news article: "Let's see, the last time it rained was uhhh...June 6. But that was hardly worth remembering...only .28 inches. June 5 was worse. Only .01 inch fell - not enough to justify even one bar of "Singing in the Rain." The dry weather is having a serious effect on area crops lawns and shrubbery. If it (corn) receives no meaningful rainfall within two weeks, the corn crop will be a disaster."..... Well, Contacts, I've helped that situation already, within the week, as I specified in writing. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134, CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. If you think it is easy to bring this about....consider that the various elements of weather combinations along the eastern seaboard and elsewhere must be put together like a jig-saw puzzle to bring about this desired effect! === **Filename: 7006.pdf** === Page 4 of 21 Dr Sprinkle June 13, 1970..........TO ALL CONTACTS The Si's have just successfully completed another "miracle", which I have dutifully reported, for them and from them, to you. As you know, I sent you, some time ago, a message from the Si's...saying that they would give a world-wide demonstration of violent, savage weather phenomena...earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tornados, hurricanes and so on. This has come about in dramatic fashion...Worst avalanches in 30 years in Europe; worst floods in history in Roumania and Germany; worst tornado to ever hit Texas (clobbered Lubbock recently); worst earthquake in 20 years to strike Peru (last week); and the list goes on and on, long long list... since I sent you that letter. Now...also in that letter I told you that the Si's would appear and be reported in the newspapers...as their "signature" to the reality of the whole situation, of them, and their link with me. This morning this "signature" appeared in the newspaper here in Norfolk, The Virginian Pilot, as follows: "RA 2 CREW SIGHTS UFO IN ATLANTIC. Clearwater, Fla. (UPI)---A radio message Friday from explorer Thor Heyerdahl's papyrus boat Ra 2 said crewmen sighted an unidentified flying object (UFO) on their voyage across the Atlantic Ocean toward Mexico. The message, by shortwave radio from navigator Norman Baker, said the UFO moved across the horizon for several minutes and disappeared in "a bright orange flash." The North American Air Defense Command, headquartered at Colorado Springs, Colorado, doubted that the UFO could have been connected with any space shot. An officer at NORAD suggested, "It might have been a meteor." Baker said the sighting was made Thursday morning as the Ra 2 made good headway in a voyage that started last month from the Moroccan port of Safi. Heyerdahl is trying to prove that ancient Egyptians could have used papyrus boats to bring their culture to the Western Hemisphere centuries before Columbus landed. At last report, Ra 2 was 750 miles west of the African coast in the mid-Atlantic. One member of the crew, Ait Madani, spotted the UFO as he was at the helm of the Ra 2." I am very excited about this...it has been a beautiful, perfectly executed demonstration by the Si's, for you. Now I believe, I hope, they will stop the earthquakes and other savage destructive weather phenomena...I asked them to last week, when Peru was devastated. They produced the weather phenomena and "signed" the demonstration with this nationally-reported UPI newspaper write-up of their dramatic appearance to the Ra 2. Perhaps it is the end of the demonstration. I hope so. But...I don't know for sure, either. At any rate they've told you, as plainly as can be, that they are responsible for the world-wide floods, quakes, etc., that have taken place. THIS HAS ENORMOUS IMPLICATIONS, as is quite obvious to you. Now, I'd like a confirmation on this, if any of you would care to give me one, for my files. Because remember...it is only by this means that I have been able to prove my link with the Si's this far.; It is vital to my work. So...any volunteers? (Of course the new "members" of the Contacts will not have this letter I sent which set up the world-wide weather demonstration followed by the Si "signature," so they couldn't confirm anything if they wanted to.) === **Filename: 7006.pdf** === Page 5 of 21 NOW, since some of you are new members of my Contact group (and I must apologize for using that term to Brinsley in London, since my contacts are a relative handful of people and Brinsley's CONTACT is a world-wide organization...but how else to put it?) so at this point I'll fill you in on what the Si's (UFO intelligences) are doing. Because a friend in London asked me to have the Si's demonstrate in England, currently...I have contacted "Control" (top Si intelligence) and requested that the Si's (1) appear over England in numbers, (2) cause weather aberrations around the area of England, and (3) cause the wide appearance of "ghosts" and "poltergeists" in the area of England. I specified for a time-frame the month of June. Of course, I do not know whether they will comply or not. They do not like other humans to suggest experiments...practically all of the "miracles" I've demonstrated through the Si's have been thought up by the Si's and dictated to me...by the Si's. But...I'm trying, with this. And let me explain another problem: the Si's have a different "time" than our time. They have to work from their dimension into our dimension through "time windows". I.e., instead of the above phenomena happening in June...it could take place in July or August. This has occurred before. The phenomena does in fact occur...but out of the time-frame I try to force it into. A friend in New York and a friend in New Jersey...have requested I ask the Si's to appear and thus create more interest in UFO's than is currently being shown by the layman on the street. I have taken this request to "Control" who has promised me that they will appear (as they just have) and be written up in newspapers and mags, to stir up more interest in them. The Si's had promised my Contacts "an earthquake summer"...i.e., violent, savage weather phenomena around the world...to continue through the summer into the fall season. Peru was the latest country to be struck. And day before yesterday 12 towns in Oklahoma, I believe it was, were chewed up by tornados. These are the most recent events. I have a hunch the Si's will strike our east or west coast with a big earthquake during the summer; and I have sound reasons behind that hunch. The Si's some time ago...stated they would harass the Pan-Am (and now other airlines) Jumbo Jet 747's. They have done so very much; their latest actions being the Pan-Am 747 that went off the runway at NY last week; and the shooting on board the Pan-Am 747 last week. You can watch this harassment with interest, knowing it is Si-caused. This coming fall...the Si's are going to "PK" all football stadiums where pro football teams will play...which will cause freak accidents and injuries...and have the effect of causing pro football teams to be regular traveling hospital wards. After the appearance...of some articles coming out in July and August about them...the Si's will reward humans for it...(because it is of the utmost importance to them to have their work known around the world)...by not touching or interfering with the next Apollo shot (they certainly "touched and interfered" with the last two Apollo shots!) === **Filename: 7006.pdf** === Page 6 of 21 3 The Si's are going to cause something strange and unusual...to happen in the Washington, D.C. area, as you know from a recent communication from me; and they are going to "spank" the Miami, Florida area in some way, for reasons of their own. I believe that's the extent, right now...of what they are working on, and reporting to you through me. Before I forget it...let me explain an interesting point. The term "SI" as you know...stands for Space Intelligence, or "Saucer" Intelligence, if you will. However, just recently...the Si's have added to my education from them...by adding sound to the symbols which they've given me to use with them for purposes of communication. This for the first time...and I've been communicating with them for five years now just with symbols. So they've just taught me how to combine sound with the symbols. All right. So now I'm using Sound and Images, right? Which also, if you put that together, comes to "SI". Interesting coincidence. Why the sound with the mental images I use? The best I can explain, from the little explanation they've given me...is that the sound acts as a carrier of the image, giving the mental image more force and carries it truer...they gave me the example of my throwing a light knife (remember I'm a pro knife-thrower) which can wobble and waver in flight and drop off-target. But by adding an amount of tape to the handle...enough weight is given to the knife to throw it hard and true. And so it is with the different and varied sounds they give me to go along with the mental images I'm supposed to use in various assignments they give me. That's it for now. I won't be able to write you very often, because of no postage and no money and very little time to write. But I'll try to keep you abreast of the Si's actions as often as I can, because it is of prime importance to them, and to you, that I do so. For those of you who are new, and might be puzzled by some of the things written herein...get Otto Binder's excellently-written articles re the Si's coming out in SAGA Magazine on the stands in July and August.

Dyer, Court Reporter So...you do not even blink with astonishment...when a man calls in lightning, tornadic winds, and rain...on a certain relatively small geographical area...within a relatively short space of time, specified. And documented in advance in writing. Well, well. I reckon then that some more demonstrations will have to be made. I am setting up an unusual apparatus to cover this area... from the Si's (UFO's) tool-kit of ODE forces and effects (ODE is other-dimensional...which is where the Si's originate... from another dimension). This mechanism will have the effect of highly-charging the Norfolk/Virginia Beach, etc. (Tidewater area) with magnetic and electro-magnetic force. An ODE "grid" has been placed over this area, and is now in operation. The grid acts just like the gimmick that charges a car battery....and this will also draw water from the nearby ocean to this area, besides drawing lightning to this area... So, in the near future things will get lively here. All sorts of weird unusual magnetic and electro-magnetic effects. Lots of lightning...could be even on nice days in the daytime... lots of electrical storms. And so on. I've done this before, using the Si power, and it was fantastic...the results....over the area it was used on. Watch, and see.

STEADMAN Virginian-Pilot Staff Writer A storm punctuated by severe lightning dumped more than 2 1/2 inches of rain on Tidewater Thursday. Better than an inch of precipitation was recorded at Norfolk Regional Airport between 6 and 7 p.m., the Weather Bureau reported. Thunderstorms covered 75 per cent of the state Thursday, according to the Weather Bureau. This was unusual, even if not phenomenal. Two men from the Tidewater area were the object of a Coast Guard search in the Atlantic off Cape Hatteras Thursday night after their 18-foot outboard was reported overdue about 7 p.m. Air surveillance will resume today at first light. A spokesman at 5th District headquarters in Portsmouth said the outboard departed Hatteras about 7:30 a.m. Thursday, and was expected to return well before night. Seas were rough and winds of 25 knots, gusting higher, were reported off the cape during the afternoon, the Coast Guard said. A Coast Guard plane and 44-foot cutter probed the ocean for the tiny boat until high winds and poor visibility forced them to suspend operations about 11 p.m. The men were not identified. The intensity of the rainfall flooded streets and low-lying sections, creating instant lakes and headaches throughout the four South Hampton Roads cities. A mudslide inundated the eastbound lanes of Granby Street at Taussing Boulevard, where the rain washed out dirt from the Interstate 64 overpass under construction, Norfolk police said. Street crews were scraping away the muck, which some reports said was 6 feet deep, late Thursday. Residents of a three-story brick apartment house in the 900 block of Brandon Avenue, Norfolk, were told by firemen to evacuate the building after an accumulation of water caused the roof to collapse. Water seeped through to the ground floor and presented a potential hazard in combination with the electrical system, the residents were informed. Lightning set off a multitude of small fires in Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesapeake, and Virginia Beach. Authorities said none of the fires was extensive. A freak bolt of lightning caused damage in three widely separate spots at the home of Hubert Bass on Pefley Drive in Norfolk. Bass said the bolt knocked a hole through a garage wall at one end of the five-bedroom brick house, damaged another wall at the opposite end, and shattered a low brick wall he had been building around a tree about 6 feet away from the house. In Virginia Beach, fire officials reported that lightning hit the Lakeville Estates apartments at Indian River Road near Military Highway and struck several residences. Power failures were widespread, mostly the result of lightning striking transformers, authorities reported. Norfolk police reported heavy flooding at all underpasses. The water was 4 1/2 feet deep in places, they said. The deluge left eight automobiles stranded in the underpass on Tidewater Drive at Virginia Beach Boulevard and water was over the top of car wheels on Tidewater Drive around the 2nd Precinct, police said. Brambleton Avenue becomes a running river between Tidewater Drive and Chapel Street. Virginian-Pilot Photo by Neal V. Clark Jr. All right. So far, so good. Within ten days time I've made two knock-down drag-out storms... "signatured" by my trademark, lightning attacks. And I think surely that the crops must be safe by now... my primary goal. Secondary goal, to give a real demonstration to this area, Mattry et al of the Si's power, when called in by me to do a job.

Thursday night's sharp series of storms, some with pea-sized hail downtown, left 2.65 inches of rain in Norfolk to 11:15 p.m. and raised June's total to 3.49 inches. Downtown streets were like running rivers at the peak of the downpours. Winds gusted to 40 m.p.h. at Norfolk Airport. More drought-breaking rains are likely. The forecast is for partly cloudy weather tonight and Saturday, but with a continuing (50 per cent) chance of thundershowers. The high today is to be in the 80s; the low tonight in the 60s; and high Saturday again in the 80s. Strong and gusty winds are likely in some thunderstorms. Otherwise, between showers, winds are to be variable at 10 to 15 m.p.h. through Saturday. Heavy thunderstorms rumbled along and south of a stationary front that extended Thursday night from the Atlantic across Southern Maryland to a storm center over north-central Virginia. A particularly severe squall truck the Newport News (Denbigh) area between 5 and 6 p.m. Wind gusts were estimated up to 70 m.p.h. in Norfolk, one end of the five-bedroom brick house, damaged another wall at the opposite end, and shattered a low brick wall he had been building around a tree about 6 feet away from the house...In Virginia Beach fire officials reported that lightning hit the Lakeville Estates apartments at Indian River Road near Military Highway and struck several residences....Power failures were widespread, mostly the result of lightning striking transformers....Norfolk police reported heavy flooding at all underpasses.

A definite cause for the astral light was not assigned but United Press International reported that, "The Navy's Poseidon roared into the night from Cape Kennedy at 9:31 p.m. in the 20th test of the new weapons system Monday." The Bureau said cirrus clouds at 30,000 feet would normally reflect a light into a halo effect. But the bureau spokesman knew of no light, such as the moon, specifically situated Monday night. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's rocket installation at Wallops Island reported no firings Monday. 6/30/70 30, 1970 Dr Sprinkle Virginian-Pilot Newspaper Ledger-Star Newspaper Naddzy Dyer, Court Reporter act your attention to my letter to you of June 24, 1970. is letter...I told you that I was employing an effect another dimension...an unusual apparatus to cover this a "grid"...and I said: "So, in the near future things get lively here. All sorts of weird and unusual magnetic lectro-magnetic effects...." ight. So last night I was watching the 11 o'clock news the announcer said "Strange object seen in the sky..." ered all three stations on the subject...hundreds of had phone in to the police that they'd seen a oom cloud which changed into a giant multi-colored over the Chesapeake area of Norfolk (where I live, entally)...and the different announcers were all trying ess what it could be, and said frankly that nobody knew what it was. They'd contacted Wallops Island, but nothing was being done there. They all carefully and cautiously and painfully endeavored to not say the word "UFO". But one man, of them all, was at least honest: "There was a time," he said, "when I didn't believe in THOSE THINGS, but then I saw one, and now I'm a believer." In the paper this morning there was just a small blurb...and it tried to give it the old "marsh gas" treatment. No mention of a "UFO". They called it a "halo". I just looked at the Ledger-Star and they don't even mention it. At least I could find no mention of it.

Dyer, Court Reporter I direct your attention to my letter to you of June 24, 1970. In this letter...I told you that I was employing an effect from another dimension...an unusual apparatus to cover this area...a "grid"...and I said: "So, in the near future things will get lively here. All sorts of weird and unusual magnetic and electro-magnetic effects...." All right. So last night I was watching the 11 o'clock news and the announcer said "Strange object seen in the sky..." I covered all three stations on the subject...hundreds of people had phone in to the police that they'd seen a mushroom cloud which changed into a giant multi-colored circle over the Chesapeake area of Norfolk (where I live, incidentally)...and the different announcers were all trying to guess what it could be, and said frankly that nobody knew what it was. They'd contacted Wallops Island, but nothing was being done there. They all carefully and cautiously and painfully endeavored to not say the word "UFO". But one man, of them all, was at least honest: "There was a time," he said, "when I didn't believe in THOSE THINGS, but then I saw one, and now I'm a believer." In the paper this morning there was just a small blurb...and it tried to give it the old "marsh gas" treatment. No mention of a "UFO". They called it a "halo". I just looked at the Ledger-Star and they don't even mention it. At least I could find no mention of it. So...in the space of two weeks I called in my UFO's to give this area a flood of rain and storm...and they did, certainly did. Then a genuine UFO appears over Norfolk last night. If that all doesn't fit into the "lively" pattern, I don't know what would. But Ill say one thing. The radio and press and TV here...do a marvelous job...of covering up. But it is going to be increasingly harder to do...as the UFO's I'm connected with...get livelier here.

Presumably light reflected off circus clouds which were made up of ice particles. The clouds were at 30,000 feet. What was the source of the light? The Norfolk Weather Bureau could not say today. Willie Pegram of 4 Lawrence Circle, Portsmouth, said he observed the halo at 9:20 p.m. from a position near the Elizabeth Manor Golf and Country Club. The halo was south to southwest from that position Pegram said, and as it enlarged it became fainter. Miss Jean Chapman of the weather bureau said that the moon reflecting off cirrus clouds can cause the phenomenon, but the moon did not rise last night until after midnight. Miss Chapman checked with the Richmond and Hatteras, N.C. weather stations and the halo was not reported seen by either. However, an unidentified caller reported seeing the halo at Hatteras, Miss Chapman said. She said Hatteras advised that Cape Kennedy reported that reflected light from a high altitude research rocket fired there was visible as far north as South Carolina. The rocket was fired at 9:31 p.m. With Pegram seeing the halo at 9:20 p.m. the firing and the halo appear unrelated. Persons in Norfolk and Virginia Beach reported seeing the light between 9:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. ter clipping that I found in tonight's , to the letter-copy I sent you from ors of Norfolk on June 24. losely, you will see that by now...I ns this past week here, in advance in ow called this phenomena which occurred which puzzles everyone including the dvance in writing...re my "grid" which ectro-magnetic effects, other-dimensional.

Firemen were still at the scene at midnight. The intense blaze started about 7:30 p.m. Saturday during a thunderstorm in which a lightning bolt struck the 48-foot-high tank at the district plant of the Humble Oil & Refining Co. Only moments before the fire started, the Humble tanker Esso San Francisco at the plant piers had suspended unloading operations because of the storm danger. Several persons on the pier saw the tank hit by the lightning. The ship was then moved from the pier. Firemen battled the blaze throughout the night and into Sunday evening in an effort to keep it from igniting other gasoline storage tanks nearby. The flames lit the sky by night and trailed a thick fog of black smoke in a southwesterly direction Sunday afternoon. Residents of a nearby trailer court left their homes Saturday night as huge fireballs leaped from the blazing tank. Spectators lined Hampton Boulevard, even in intermittent July 4 rain, to watch the brilliant flames. The spectators were still there Sunday although the intensity of the fire had abated somewhat. No firemen were reported injured during the blaze. Murray A. Roberts, regional operations (See Fire, Page A4) Photo by Ben Pulliam The tank blazes in a melted ruin amid other tanks filled with gasoline. === **Filename: 7006.pdf** === Page 16 of 21 # Fire Under Control From Page 1 manager for Humble, said that the damage caused by the blaze would have to be estimated by professional assessors. The 55,000 barrel tank (42 gallons to a barrel) contained "just under 20,000 barrels" of Esso Plus gasoline Roberts said. The tank wall melted down to 18 feet from its original 48 feet. Firemen tried throughout the night to smother the blaze with foam, but without success. "The tremendous updraft from the heat carried the light foam up in the air," said Norfolk Fire Chief Lawrence B. Wilson. "About 8 a.m. we stopped the foaming effort because it just wasn't doing any good. Then we concentrated just on keeping the other exposures (tanks) cool." Wilson said fire fighters got a favorable break in controlling the blaze about 10 a.m. Sunday when the wind died down and shifted to the northeast, blowing the heat and flames away from the other storage tanks. During the darkness hours of Saturday night and Sunday morning the wind sometimes whipped the intense heat and flames sideways so that firemen had to douse one another's clothes and their equipment with water to keep them from igniting. Norfolk sent nine engine companies, two ladder trucks, and one salvage unit to the scene and kept 150 firemen working at the blaze in five and six-hour shifts. The Navy sent two crash trucks from the Norfolk Naval Air Station, a pumping engine from the Naval Station, two fire boats and a tug. The fireboats were later withdrawn. The Coast Guard sent the cutters Mochican, Point Brown, and Cherokee, but later reduced the standby to just the Cherokee. Civil Defense volunteers also aided the fight. Red Cross volunteers and women's auxiliary of the Fire Department served food to the fire fighters. Chesapeake and Virginia Beach fire departments and the Norfolk Naval Station Fire Department sent units to stand duty in Norfolk stations left unmanned because of the fire. === **Filename: 7006.pdf** === Page 17 of 21 # Tides Rained Out 7/6/70 NORFOLK--Rain has claimed another Sunday on the Tide home schedule, the third in the last four as a matter of fact. The game with Rochester at Metropolitan Park was called before noon by Dave Rosenfield, the Tide general manager. "It rained last night and all morning. Even with the infield covered there was no way," Rosenfield said with more than a trace of sorrow. "We've had six Sundays at home and only one really good day, when our Kid's Day promotion drew 3,063. Two others were played in bad weather and three we have lost. We've drawn 82,000 people, almost 50,000 ahead of last year's pace, but with those three Sundays we'd be close to 90,000." The game, the last of a set of three with the Red Wings, will be made up as part of a doubleheader when Rochester returns Aug. 17-20. The Tides have a makeup doubleheader with Syracuse set Tuesday night and another in August with Louisville. On the road games must be made up at Rochester (Friday as part of a twinighter) and Winnipeg. Jesse Hudson (5-2), who was to have pitched Sunday, will now work Tuesday in the doubleheader with the league-leading Chiefs. Bill Denehy (3-1) probably will work the other game because Jon (See Sundays, Page B9) # is Battle; Bucs Win words and within moments, both dugouts emptied. No ejections were made and play was resumed after a few minutes. Hebner's third home run of the season, following a leadoff single by Matty Alou, was the 11th for the Pirates in the four-game series and 12th of the month, one more than they had in all of June. The Pirates, who've won 10 of the last 13, added an unearned run in the first on an error by Ron Santo and Gene Alley's run-scoring single and picked up two more in the fifth on singles by Alou and Roberto Clemente. | PITTSBURGH | | | | | CHICAGO | | | | | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | | ab | r | h | bi | | ab | r | h | bi | | MAlou cf | 5 | 2 | 3 | 0 | Kessinger ss | 4 | 1 | 2 | 0 | | Hebner 3b | 5 | 1 | 1 | 2 | Popovich 2b | 4 | 0 | 2 | 2 | | Clemente rf | 4 | 1 | 1 | 0 | BWilliams lf | 4 | 0 | 1 | 0 | | AOliver 1b | 3 | 0 | 0 | 1 | Hickman cf | 3 | 0 | 1 | 0 | | Stargell lf | 3 | 1 | 1 | 0 | WSmith 1b | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | Jeter lf | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Santo 3b | 4 | 0 | 1 | 0 | | Sanguillin c | 4 | 0 | 2 | 1 | Callison rf | 4 | 0 | 2 | 0 | | Alley ss | 4 | 0 | 1 | 1 | Hiatt c | 3 | 0 | 1 | 0 | | Mazroski 2b | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | CJames pr | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | | Ellis p | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Rudolph c | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | | | | | | Jenkins p | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | | | | | | Spangler ph | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | | | | | | Colborn p | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | | | | | | Martin ph | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | Total | 36 | 5 | 9 | 5 | Total | 35 | 2 | 10 | 2 | | | | | | | | | | | | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | Pittsburgh | 3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0--5 | | Chicago | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0--2 | E--Santo 3.

BAYER Tidewater cleaned up today after a hit-and-run squall Sunday that swept across the area, disrupting power, playing havoc on the waterways and damaging waterfront property. The biggest cleanup operation was at the Portsmouth Marine Terminal where wind that gusted up to 58 miles per hour blew the boom of a giant cargo crane across a container ship. John T. Nix, executive director of the Portsmouth Port and Industrial Commission, said the boom fell on The Baltimore, owned by Sealand Lines, about 1:30 p.m. Sunday at the peak of the storm. Nix said, while waiting for the boom to be raised early today, that there were no injuries. Damage to the boom, he said, appeared extensive, but the ship, he added, did not appear to be badly damaged. The Weather Bureau had ample warning that a squall line was moving rapidly in from the west accompanied by wild thunderstorms. It mounted a severe thunderstorm watch at 8:55 a.m. Sunday and shortly thereafter began issuing small craft warnings. Despite these warnings, there were many small boats in Hampton Roads and on Chesapeake Bay when the storm rolled in about 1 p.m. The Weather Bureau at Norfolk Regional Airport said the temperature dropped from 95 to 73 in about an hour while heavy winds buffeted the area. The peak of the storm, the bureau said, was about 1:38 p.m., but scattered thunderstorms were reported in the area as late as 3:43 p.m. The Coast Guard received dozens of calls and had virtually every piece of rescue equipment in action. There was one possible death. A man identified by the Coast Guard as Leon Hodge, 35, of Hampton was reportedly washed off a sailboat in the bay four miles north of the Thimble Shoals light. The Coast Guard said a 40-foot boat, aircraft and the cutter Point Huron searched for Hodge several hours before suspending the search after nightfall. About 1:30 p.m. Sunday one of the Coast Guard's own, the cutter Sebago, went aground on Willoughby Shoals about three quarters of a mile southwest of the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel. A Coast Guard spokesman in Portsmouth said a hawser became entangled in the cutter's propeller and divers were sent over the side before Navy tugs pulled the cutter free at high tide. The Virginia Power and Electric Co. said some 10,000 Tidewater homes were without power for varying periods of time because of the storm. A power company spokesman said crews were still out today restoring service to a few homes in outlying areas. Trouble calls began pouring in at 1:30 p.m. Sunday and most service was restored by 11 p.m., the VEPCO spokesman said. The heavy wind pealed part of the roofing from atop the Quality Courts Motel, which sits at the end of Willoughby Spit between Willoughby Bay and Chesapeake Bay. Mrs. Mary Griffith, a desk clerk at the motel, said: "I told my husband it looked like a tornado. There was so much noise because of the wind. You couldn't believe it." John C. McCaw, the motel's manager, was surveying the damage today. He said water came through the roof and damaged about 60 rooms on two levels. The motel has 120 rooms. Firemen were able to extinguish a gasoline storage tank fire caused by lightening in Chesapeake. No one was injured in the fire, which burned for more than an hour. The storm also blew out 145 feet of freshly erected cinder block in the north walls of the new Rena B. Wright school in Chesapeake. The wall was 12 feet high and was ready to receive steel joists. === **Filename: 7006.pdf** === Page 19 of 21 Storm Knocks Out Electricity to Some From Page 1 of Virginia Beach, rescued two men who were floating on life cushions after their 19-foot outboard overturned near the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. Billy T. Cooper, a passenger on Loziato's boat, estimated the seas at 10 to 15 feet and winds at 60 to 65 m.p.h. They rode out the storm, which lasted nearly an hour, northeast of the Bridge-Tunnel's fourth island. The Coast Guard cutters reported making numerous rescues, including a father and son in Chesapeake Bay. Hardest hit by the storm was the Quality Courts Motel in the 1500 block of West Ocean View Avenue. The winds knocked half the roof off the 120-room motel. John C. McCaw, motel manager, estimated the damage to the roof and furniture in the rooms at about $100,000. Although about 30 of the rooms were occupied, he said, no one was injured. He said the motel will remain open while repairs are made to the roof. The Weather Bureau said the storm was caused by a squall line ahead of a low-pressure area moving west to east. The high winds were not unexpected as a severe thunderstorm watch had been in affect from 8:55 a.m. and a tornado watch from 1:15 p.m. Both were lifted at 6 p.m. Wing gusts up to 80 m.p.h. whipped Blackstone in eastern Virginia and small hail was reported near Raleigh-Durham, N.C. The tornado watch was issued for portions of the Carolinas as well as southeast Virginia. Scattered damage was caused by the storm as the winds felled trees and knocked limbs across power lines. Power was lost for more than seven hours in scattered parts of Norfolk, said J. T. Mason, Virginia Electric Power Co.'s district superintendent. He said that more than 10,000 homes in Norfolk, Portsmouth, Virginia Beach, and Chesapeake were without power during the storm. The storm also damaged power lines throughout Suffolk and the Tri-County Area, leaving hundreds of homes without electricity for several hours. Vepco crews were kept busy until late Sunday night clearing limbs from high-voltage lines and repairing downed lines. In Virginia Beach, the most serious problem was a massive traffic jam on Shore Drive at Pleasure House Road and at Northampton Boulevard created by a power failure in the Bayside area of the city. At one time, westbound traffic on Shore drive was backed up, bumper to bumper in two lanes, for more than three miles from the intersection at Pleasure House Road. Thousands of people on the beach at Sandbridge, south to the North Carolina state line, were warned of the storm by city police to clear the beaches. Lt. Carl Weast of the 1st Precinct said some paid no attention to the warnings and "wished they had," but no problems were reported. A report that two people were aboard an airfloat being blown to sea off the beach at 53rd Street was apparently false, a spokesman for the Fire Department said. The search was called off about 30 minutes after it began. During the peak of the storm, many small boats sought safety inside the Lynnhaven and Rudee inlets, and one sailboat that overturned was finally brought ashore at Chesapeake Beach without injury to its occupants, police said. In the South Norfolk section of Chesapeake, a wall of the new Rena B. Wright Elementary School collapsed. Officials at the school, under construction at Park Avenue and Perry Street, were unable to estimate damage or say how much delay can be expected in completion of the building. State Trooper E. H. Davis Jr. said an automobile on U.S. 58-460 seven miles east of Suffolk was blown off the highway and hit a tree. The victims were identified as Mrs. Phyllis Crumble, of the 100 block of Ackiss Avenue, Virginia Beach, and her two sons, James, 5, and Darrell, 4. Mrs. Crumble and James were treated and released and Darrell was admitted to Maryview Hospital for a possible head injury. A home on U.S. 460 north of Suffolk was heavily damaged with it was apparently struck by lightning, firemen said. === **Filename: 7006.pdf** === Page 20 of 21 Wind Victims Children inspect what would have been a wall of the new Rena B.

The Virginian-Pilot M Monday, June 22, 1970 Section B Lightning Sparks Tank Fire Fireball Seen Over Chesapeake By DAVE LEONARD Virginian-Pilot Staff Writer CHESAPEAKE -- Lightning struck a 35-foot tall gasoline storage tank early Sunday causing a fire that burned more than an hour, fire fighters reported. Witnesses said flames roared skyward in a fireball visible for miles about 2:25 a.m. when lightning struck a 30,000-barrel Texaco tank near Bank and Maulden streets, South Hill. Acting Fire Chief D. S. Keay said the flames died suddenly about 3:30 a.m. while two huge streams of water cooled the tank. Two Navy foam trucks arrived as the flames died. No one was hurt by the blaze. Fire fighters admitted they were concerned, especially after reports of fatalities in an oil fire in a Franklin, Pa., storage area Friday and Saturday. The lightning and fire ruptured the tank top. Fire fighters said the tank was about half full and no flaming liquid reached the ground. Two deluge water guns, one atop an aerial ladder, continued to pour water on the tank until about 6 a.m. when Texaco officials said the tank's internal temperature was back to a normal 79 degrees. Many residents reported seeing the fireball erupt during the lightning-punctuated storm. Scott Sherman, occupant of a home less than 100 yards from the tank, said he saw the lightning hit. "I saw so much light," he said, "and I thought the house was on fire." Sherman said a three-pronged bolt hit, and fire erupted from the top rear of the tank. Sherman said he and his wife ran from the house into the rain. Moments earlier he had closed windows as the rain began. Acting Battalion Chief James Doughtie said the strategy used to fight the fire involved handheld lines to cool the fire as soon as the first four pumpers arrived. Four 2½-inch lines were attached to an unmanned deluge gun and fire fighters retreated to a safer distance to await foam units from Norfolk Naval Base and Air Station. A Norfolk aerial ladder, called when Chesapeake's ladder failed to operate, projected a second large stream atop the tank from Bank Street.

Virginian-Pilot Photos by Bill Randolph Tidewater Storm Hits Buildings and Boats By DON HUNT Virginian-Pilot Staff Writer Winds gusting to 58 miles per hour in the midst of a severe thunderstorm Sunday afternoon quickly cooled off one of the hottest days of the year. The high winds apparently forced the Coast Guard cutter Mohican to go aground in Sewells Point Spit, knocked half the roof off an Ocean View motel in Norfolk, left more than 12,000 homes without electricity for several hours, and capsized numerous small boats. The 5th Coast Guard District headquarters in Portsmouth received more than 65 distress calls during the storm, and a Coast Guard spokesman said that one man apparently drowned. Leon Hadge, 35, believed to be from Hampton, was washed off the sailboat Totem H. near Buckroe Beach. He had not been found when a search was called off at dusk. A high of 95 was recorded at 1 p.m. The mercury dropped to 73 shortly after 2 p.m., during the peak of the storm. The Weather Bureau said about half an inch of rain fell during the storm. A Coast Guard spokesman said the Sebago, a Pensacola, Fla.-based cutter, went aground at 1:30 p.m. about three-fourths of a mile southwest of Ft. Wool. The 255-foot former gunboat was freed at high tide about 8:30 p.m. Three Navy tugboats were unable to free the cutter Sunday afternoon. The cutter, en route to Pensacola from Curtis Bay, Md., was headed to a Hampton Roads anchorage to load explosives, the spokesman said. Many pleasure boats, from small outboards to luxury sport fishermen, were caught in the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean by the blow. The Coast Guard reported picking up boaters throughout the area. Other rescues were reported by private boats. A Coast Guard airplane from Elizabeth City, N.C., five cutters, and four utility boats searched the James River, Chesapeake Bay and Virginia Beach and North Carolina coasts. The Touche II, a 36-foot sport fishing boat owned by Al Loziato (See Storm, Page A4) Workmen begin repairs to the roof of the motel.

As you know, I sent you, some time ago, a message from the Si's...saying that they would give a world-wide demonstration of violent savage weather phenomena...earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tornados, hurricanes and so on. This has come about in dramatic fashion...Worst avalanches in 30 years in Europe; worst floods in history in Romania and Germany; worst tornado to ever hit Texas (clobbered Lubbock recently); worst earthquake in 20 years to strike Peru (last week); and the list goes on and on, long long list...since I sent you that letter. Now...also in that letter I told you that the Si's would appear and be reported in the newspapers...as their "signature" to the reality of the whole situation, of them, and their link with me. This morning this "signature" appeared in the newspaper here in Norfolk, The Virginian Pilot, as follows: "RA 2 CREW SIGHTS UFO IN ATLANTIC. Clearwater, Fla. (UPI)--A radio message Friday from explorer Thor Heyerdahl's papyrus boat Ra 2 said crewmen sighted an unidentified flying object (UFO) on their voyage across the Atlantic Ocean toward Mexico. The message, by shortwave radio from navigator Norman Baker, said the UFO moved across the horizon for several minutes and disappeared in "a bright orange flash." The North American Air Defense Command, headquartered at Colorado Springs, Colorado, doubted that the UFO could have been connected with any space shot. An officer at NORAD suggested, "It might have been a meteor." Baker said the sighting was made Thursday morning as the Ra 2 made good headway in a voyage that started last month from the Moroccan port of Safi. Heyerdahl is trying to prove that ancient Egyptians could have used papyrus boats to bring their culture to the Western Hemisphere centuries before Columbus landed. At last report, Ra 2 was 750 miles west of the African coast in the mid-Atlantic. One member of the crew, Ait Madani, spotted the UFO as he was at the helm of the Ra 2." I am very excited about this...it has been a beautiful, perfectly executed demonstration by the Si's, for you. Now I believe, I hope, they will stop the earthquakes and other savage destructive weather phenomena...I asked them to last week, when Peru was devastated. They produced the weather phenomena and "signed" the demonstration with this nationally-reported UPI newspaper write-up of their dramatic appearance to the Ra 2. Perhaps it is the end of the demonstration. I hope so. But...I don't know for sure, either. At any rate they've told you, as plainly as can be, that they are responsible for the world-wide floods, quakes, etc., that have taken place. THIS HAS ENORMOUS IMPLICATIONS, as is quite obvious to you. Now, I'd like a confirmation on this, if any of you would care to give me one, for my files. Because remember...it is only by this means that I have been able to prove my link with the Si's this far.; It is vital to my work. So...any volunteers? (Of course the new "members" of the Contacts will not have this letter I sent which set up the world-wide weather demonstration followed by the Si "signature," so they couldn't confirm anything if they wanted to.) === **Page: 2 of 3** Now, since some of you are new members of my Contact group (and I must apologize for using that term to Brinsley in London, since my contacts are a relative handful of people and Brinsley's CONTACT is a world-wide organization...but how else to put it?) so at this point I'll fill you in on what the SI's (UFO intelligences) are doing. Because a friend in London asked me to have the SI's demonstrate in England, currently...I have contacted Control (top SI intelligence) and requested that the SI's (1) appear over England in numbers, (2) cause weather aberrations around the area of England, and (3) cause the wide appearance of "ghosts" and "poltergeists" in the area of England. I specified for a time-frame the month of June. Of course, I do not know whether they will comply or not. They do not like other humans to suggest experiments...practically all of the "miracles" I've demonstrated through the SI's have been thought up by the SI's and dictated to me...by the SI's. But...I'm trying, with this. And let me explain another problem: the SI's have a different "time" than our time. They have to work from their dimension into our dimension through "time windows". I.e., instead of the above phenomena happening in June...it could take place in July or August. This has occurred before. The phenomena does in fact occur...but out of the time-frame I try to force it into. A friend in New York and a friend in New Jersey...have requested I ask the SI's to appear and thus create more interest in UFO's than is currently being shown by the layman on the street. I have taken this request to "Control" who has promised me that they will appear (as they just have) and be written up in newspapers and mags, to stir up more interest in them. The SI's had promised my Contacts "an earthquake summer"...i.e., violent, savage weather phenomena around the world...to continue through the summer into the fall season. Peru was the latest country to be struck. And day before yesterday 12 towns in Oklahoma, I believe it was, were chewed up by tornados. These are the most recent events. I have a hunch the SI's will strike our east or west coast with a big earthquake during the summer; and I have sound reasons behind that hunch. The SI's some time ago...stated they would harass the Pan-Am (and now other airlines) Jumbo Jet 747's. They have done so very much; their latest actions being the Pan-Am 747 that went off the runway at NY last week; and the shooting on board the Pan-Am 747 last week. You can watch this harassment with interest, knowing it is SI-caused. This coming fall...the SI's are going to "PK" all football stadiums where pro football teams will play...which will cause freak accidents and injuries...and have the effect of causing pro football teams to be regular traveling hospital wards. After the appearance...of some articles coming out in July and August about them...the SI's will reward humans for it...(because it is of the utmost importance to them to have their work known around the world)...by not touching or interfering with the next Apollo shot (they certainly "touched and interfered" with the last two Apollo shots!) === **Page: 3 of 3** 3 The SI's are going to cause something strange and unusual...to happen in the Washington, D.C. area, as you know from a recent communication from me; and they are going to "spank" the Miami, Florida area in some way, for reasons of their own. I believe that's the extent, right now...of what they are working on, and reporting to you through me. Before I forget it...let me explain an interesting point. The term "SI" as you know...stands for Space Intelligence, or "Saucer" Intelligence, if you will. However, just recently...the SI's have added to my education from them...by adding sound to the symbols which they've given me to use with them for purposes of communication. This for the first time...and I've been communicating with them for five years now just with symbols. So they've just taught me how to combine sound with the symbols. All right. So now I'm using Sound and Images, right? Which also, if you put that together, comes to "SI". Interesting coincidence. Why the sound with the mental images I use? The best I can explain, from the little explanation they've given me...is that the sound acts as a carrier of the image, giving the mental image more force and carries it truer...they gave me the example of my throwing a light knife (remember I'm a pro knife-thrower) which can wobble and waver in flight and drop off-target. But by adding an amount of tape to the handle... enough weight is given to the knife to throw it hard and true. And so it is with the different and varied sounds they give me to go along with the mental images I'm supposed to use in various assignments they give me. That's it for now. I won't be able to write you very often, because of no postage and no money and very little time to write. But I'll try to keep you abreast of the SI's actions as often as I can, because it is of prime importance to them, and to you, that I do so. For those of you who are new, and might be puzzled by some of the things written herein...get Otto Binder's excellently-written articles re the SI's coming out in SAGA Magazine on the stands in July and August.

Through the past few years you've seen me write in advance...that I would cause this major power blackout, produce multiple hurricanes for the season, end the drought on the East Coast, end the killer-drought in India...and so on and on. Now, at long last, two top scientists have checked me out, my work out...and I have letters from them stating that they are willing to be one of my regular Contacts and observe this continuing "PK"/Si phenomena as it occurs. I deeply regret that they were not in on all the earlier miracles...but, better late than never, as the saying goes. They will now watch, objectively...not disbelieving, not believing...but being the top scientists that they are, in the U.S., constantly observing what the Si's are doing to prove their (Si) reality and their communication with me as their human observer. These two scientists are: Dr. Leo Sprinkle University of Wyoming Dr. J. Allen Hynek Northwestern University It is entirely possible...that with these two eminent gentlemen coming into this action as observers...that in the near time ahead...we may be communicating with the Si's face to face, somehow, somewhere. Which, of course, has been my goal all along. (2) On June 16, 1970, an article appeared in the Ledger-Star newspaper here...to the effect that this area is in a terrible drought. Naturally, seeing this, I contacted the Si's, and they gave the go-ahead. (Remember the chain of storms I made in Phila. and it was confirmed in the newspaper story there? As well as other places; Miami, Florida, more recently.) So I gave Mrs. Niki Dyer, a court-reporter in this office, a document stating (1) I would make it rain substantially here in this area within one week from 6/16; (2) I would keep it raining in this area all the summer long; (3) I would give this area such a soaking as to be almost beyond belief; (4) It would all be marked, the storms, with my own personal trademark...heavy lightning attacks; (5) I will try to bring a hurricane up from lower Florida this season...to shed more rain on this area. Now: I also sent this notice to the Editor of the Ledger-Star. Since that time...this area has had two night-storms, and today a rocking-socking rainstorm accompanied by spectacular lightning! I want to quote you from that news article: "Let's see, the last time it rained was uhhh...June 6. But that was hardly worth remembering...only .28 inches. June 5 was worse. Only .01 inch fell - not enough to justify even one bar of "Singing in the Rain." The dry weather is having a serious effect on area crops lawns and shrubbery. If it (corn) receives no meaningful rainfall within two weeks, the corn crop will be a disaster."..... Well, Contacts, I've helped that situation already, within the week, as I specified in writing. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134, CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. If you think it is easy to bring this about...consider that the various elements of weather combinations along the eastern seaboard and elsewhere must be put together like a jig-saw puzzle to bring about this desired effect!

The Virginian-Pilot M Monday, June 22, 1970 Lightning Sparks Tank Fire Fireball Seen Over Chesapeake By DAVE LEONARD Virginian-Pilot Staff Writer CHESAPEAKE - Lightning struck a 35-foot tall gasoline storage tank early Sunday causing a fire that burned more than an hour, fire fighters reported. Witnesses said flames roared skyward in a fireball viable for miles about 2:25 a.m. when lightning struck a 30,000-barrel Texaco tank near Bank and Maulden streets, South Hill. Acting Fire Chief D. S. Keay said the flames died suddenly about 3:30 a.m. while two huge streams of water cooled the tank. Two Navy foam trucks arrived as the flames died. No one was hurt by the blaze. Fire fighters admitted they were concerned, especially after reports of fatalities in an oil fire in a Franklin, Pa., storage area Friday and Saturday. The lightning and fire ruptured the tank top. Fire fighters said the tank was about half full and no flaming liquid reached the ground. Two deluge water guns, one atop an aerial ladder, continued to pour water on the tank until about 6 a.m. when Texaco officials said the tank's internal temperature was back to a normal 79 degrees. Many residents reported seeing the fireball erupt during the lightning-punctured storm. Scott Sherman, occupant of a home less than 100 yards from the tank, said he saw the lightning hit. "I saw so much light," he said, "and I thought the house was on fire." Sherman said a three-pronged bolt hit, and fire erupted from the top rear of the tank. Sherman said he and his wife ran from the house into the rain. Moments earlier he had closed windows as the rain began. Acting Battalion Chief James Doughtie said the strategy used to fight the fire involved hand held lines to cool the fire as soon as the first four pumpers arrived. Four 2 1/2-inch lines were attached to an unmanned deluge gun and fire fighters retreated to a safer distance to await foam units from Norfolk Naval Base and Air Station. A Norfolk aerial ladder, called to operate, projected a second large stream atop the tank from Bank Street. Flames erupt from burning storage tank.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 2** June 23, 1970 Dr. J. Nynek Dr. Sprinkle Gentlemen: I have just concluded putting on an absolutely air-tight demonstration, proof-wise, of my ability to communicate with UFO entities and bring about an effect. It could not conceivably be labeled a "coincidence" or anything else. As I say, it is as air-tight as a genuine scientific experiment could be, were it one, which of course it is not, since I am a layman. What would your reaction be...if you were the Editor of a very large newspaper...there was a local drought...crops were in danger of dying... and a man wrote in and said that he would deliberately make a storm for the area, within a week's time...and as proof that it was caused by him, the storm would be marked by a savage lightning attack? Then it follows...that in 5 days, on the 5th day thereafter...a devastating storm strikes this area, specified....it is marked by an absolutely savage lightning attack, lightning striking houses, striking powerlines and knocking out power in 10,000 homes...lightning striking a huge oil building and sending up a "fireball" when it explodes. And...the corn crop which was in great danger, is now "saved" according to the newspapers from the 4 inch rainfall ensuing from the storm. I'll tell you what the Editor's reaction was, here in Norfolk/Virginia Beach. Absolutely nothing. Not a word of it to the public. That is how completely my "miracles" are kept a secret. Following is a copy of my letter to the Editor of the Ledger-Star (4565 Virginia Beach Blvd., Virginia Beach, Virginia, Phone 625-1431) before, 5 days before, the storm struck: Dear Sir: Maddry and Bonko have both mentioned me previously in their columns. Tonight I read in your paper that this area is in a serious drought condition...that within two weeks the corn crop can be a disaster, as well as other crops, etc. Not much rain in months. All right. I was quite successful in Phila. in causing it to rain...and Maddry saw the articles in the papers on it. I notified the papers by letters, like this one...and then brought the rain in...and this during the 6-year drought then on at that time. I'm going to do this: (1) Try to make it rain her substantially within one week from now. (2) Try to keep it raining here in the Norfolk/ Virginia Beach area all the summer long. (3) Try to give this area such a drenching, soaking and pouring-down as to be almost beyond belief... the wettest summer on record here...more rain...etc. (4) It will be marked (the storms, that is) with my own personal trademark...heavy lightning attacks. (5) I will try to bring up a hurricane from lower Florida to this area, or near this area...and draw more rain from it to you this letter...to get any publicity...but to let you know, when it happens, what caused it. Maddry was skeptical of my work, I'm afraid, and would like to give him a sort of demonstration." Am enclosing the newsclips showing the terrific scope of the storm, as well as the documentation of confirmation from the court reporter, Mrs. Dyer, here in Rm. 401, Plaza One Bldg., Norfolk, Va., phone 625-5848. A cleaner, more powerful demonstration of my link with the Si's...you couldn't find. Ted Owens, (PK Man) Dr. Nynek - please forward to Dr. Sprinkle. Have'nt facilities for copying. Ted. === **Page: 2 of 2** June 22, 1970, Monday TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN Last Tuesday, June 16, 1970, Mr. Ted Owens, known as "PK Man", gave me in writing a prediction that he would bring about, within one week's time, a substantial rainstorm. Furthermore, he additionally promised that the rainstorm would be marked by spectacular lightning display... which he terms his "trademark". The foundation for all of this...was an article which appeared in the Ledger-Star newspaper of Norfolk to the effect that there had been no rainfall for two months and that unless rainfall occurred...there would be a disaster for the crops in this area. Mr. Owens decided, he said, to save the crops for the farmers here. Yesterday, Sunday, June 21, 1970, there was a devastating storm in this Norfolk area...more than a half-inch of rain fell...winds of over 65 miles per hour...boats were grounded...roofs were blown off of buildings...cars were blown off roads...and lightning struck everywhere at houses, power lines, etc. Lightning in fact knocked out the power in various portions of Norfolk. Lightning also struck a huge oil tank and the resulting explosion sent up a "fireball". Therefore I do confirm herein that Mr. Owens' prediction last week was entirely accurate, and has come to pass within the one-week time limit that he imposed. I certify this to be a true and accurate statement of fact. NIKI DYER, Court Reporter Plaza One Building Norfolk, Virginia. --- Rain Saves Tri-County Corn Crop 6/23/70 SUFFOLK - Farm authorities said Monday that while Sunday's rain played favorites in the Tri-County area, it played an important part in saving the year's corn crop. Rainfall ranged from 1.5 inches in Isle of Wight County, to .4 inches in Holland, and to a low of .18 inches in Suffolk. Robert Goerger, assistant agricultural agent in Isle of Wight County, said the rain did "a lot of good. It saved the corn crop, for it was about gone." While Sunday's rain was a good start, Goerger added, "we'll need more to keep the corn going. We could use a couple more inches of a gentle rain." Weather recorders at the Tidewater Research Station in Holland said the .4 inch rainfall helped Nansemond County crops a little "but not a great deal."

Dyer, Court Reporter About ten days ago...when it was hot, and hadn't rained for two months...and the crops hereabouts were in danger of being lost...I wrote you and informed you I would save the crops by bringing rain...not just rain...but I would "inundate and soak the area", drown it out, so to speak...and my proof of this, that the storms would be my own "Ted Owens Specials" would be powerful lightning attacks. Last night you had your second "Ted Owens Special" storm. About 3 inches of rain flooded down. Does it follow the pattern I specified in my "prediction" letter to you of ten days ago? It certainly does. I'll now quote from the newspaper, Virginian-Pilot: "A storm punctuated by severe lightning dumped more than 2 1/2 inches of rain on Tidewater Thursday....Thunderstorms covered 75 percent of the state Thursday....this was unusual, even if not phenomenal....The intensity of the rainfall flooded streets and low-lying sections, creating instant lakes and headaches throughout the four South Hampton Roads cities....Lightning set off a multitude of small fires in Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesapeake, and Virginia Beach....A freak bolt of lightning caused damage in three widely separate spots at the home of Hubert Bass on Pelley Drive in Norfolk. Bass said the bolt knocked a hoke through a garage wall at one end of the five-bedroom brick house, damaged another wall at the opposite end, and shattered a low brick wall he had been building around a tree about 6 feet away from the house...In Virginia Beach fire officials reported that lightning hit the Lakeville Estates apartments at Indian River Road near Military Highway and struck several residences....Power failures were widespread, mostly the result of lightning striking transformers....Norfolk police reported heavy flooding at all underpasses. The water was 4 1/2 feet deep in places, they said....the deluge left eight automobiles stranded in the underpass on Tidwater Drive at Virginia Beach Boulevard and water was over the top of car wheels on Tidewater Drive around the 2nd Precinct, police said." All right. So far, so good. Within ten days time I've made two knock-down drag-out storms..."signatured" by my trademark, lightning attacks. And I think surely that the crops must be safe by now...my primary goal. Secondary goal, to give a real demonstration to this area, Mattry et al of the SI's power, when called in by me to do a job.

A definite cause for the astral light was not assigned but United Press International reported that, "The Navy's Poseidon roared into the night from Cape Kennedy at 9:31 p.m. in the 29th test of the new weapons system Monday." The Bureau said cirrus clouds at 30,000 feet would normally reflect a light into a halo effect. But the bureau spokesman knew of no light, such as the moon, specifically situated Monday night. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's rocket installation at Wallops Island reported no firings Monday. Dear Mr. Dyer, Let your attention to my letter to you of June 24, 1970. In this letter...I told you that I was employing an effect...another dimension...an unusual apparatus to cover this "grid"...and I said..."So, in the near future things get lively here. All sorts of weird and unusual magnetic electro-magnetic effects...." So last night I was watching the 11 o'clock news announcer said "Strange object seen in the sky"...and I called all three stations on the subject...hundreds of people had phone in to the police that they'd seen a giant mushroom cloud which changed into a giant multi-colored mushroom cloud which changed into a giant multi-colored mushroom cloud over the Chesapeake area of Norfolk (where I live, incidentally)...and the different announcers were all trying to guess what it could be, and said frankly that nobody knew what it was. They'd contacted Wallops Island, but nothing was being done there. They all carefully and cautiously endeavored to not say the word "UFO". But one man, of them all, was at least honest: "There was a time, he said, "when I didn't believe in THOSE THINGS, but then I saw one, and now I'm a believer." In the paper this morning there was just a small blurb...and it tried to give it the old "marsh gas" treatment. No mention of a "UFO". They called it a "halo". I just looked at the Ledger-Star and they don't even mention it. At least I could find no mention of it. So...in the space of two weeks I called in my UFO's to give this area a flood of rain and storm...and they did, certainly did. Then a genuine UFO appears over Norfolk last night. If that all doesn't fit into the "lively" pattern, I don't know what would. But Ill say one thing. The radio and press and TV here...do a marvelous job...of covering up. But it is going to be increasingly harder to do...as the UFO's I'm connected with...get livelier here.

BAYER Tidewater cleaned up today after a hit-and-run squall Sunday that swept across the area, disrupting power, playing havoc on the waterways and damaging waterfront property. The biggest cleanup operation was at the Portsmouth Marine Terminal where wind that gusted up to 58 miles per hour blew the boom of a giant cargo crane across a container ship. John T. Nix, executive director of the Portsmouth Port and In- dustrial Commission, said the boom fell on The Baltimore, owned by Sealand Lines, about 1:30 p.m. Sunday at the peak of the storm. Nix said, while waiting for the boom to be raised early today, pear- ed extensive, but the ship, he added, did not appear to be badly damaged. The Weather Bureau had am- ple warning that a squall line was moving rapidly in from the west accompanied by wild thun- derstorms. It mounted a severe thunder- storm watch at 8:55 a.m. Sunday and shortly thereafter began issuing small craft warnings. Despite these warnings, there were many small boats in Hamp- ton Roads and on Chesapeake Bay when the storm rolled in about 1 p.m. The Weather Bureau at Norfolk Regional Airport said the tem- perature dropped from 95 to 73 in about an hour while heavy winds buffeted the area. The peak of the storm, the bu- reau said, was about 1:38 p.m., but scattered thunderstorms were reported in the area as late as 3:43 p.m. The Coast Guard received doz- ens of calls and had virtually ev- ery piece of rescue equipment in action. There was one possible death. A man identified by the Coast Guard as Leon Hodge, 85, of Hampton was reportedly washed off a sailboat in the bay four miles north of the Thimble Shoals light. The Coast Guard said a 40-foot boat, aircraft and the cutter Point Huron searched for Hodge several hours before suspending the search after nightfall. About 1:30 p.m. Sunday one of the Coast Guard's own, the cutter Sebago, went aground on Wil- loughby Shoals about three quar- ters of a mile southwest of the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel. A Coast Guard spokesman in Portsmouth sais a hawser be- came entangled in the cutter's propeller and divers were sent over the side before Navy tugs pulled the cutter free at high tide. The Virginia Power and Elec- tric Co. said some 10,000 Tide- water homes were without power for varying periods of time be- cause of the storm. A power company spokesman said crews were still out today restoring service to a few homes in outlying areas. Trouble calls began pouring in at 1:30 p.m. Sunday and most service was restored by 11 p.m., the VEPCO spokesman said. The heavy wind realed part of the roofing from atop the Quality Courts Motel, which sits at the end of Willoughby Spit between Willoughby Bay and Chesapeake Bay. Mrs. Mary Griffith, a desk clerk at the motel, said: "I told my husband it looked like a tornado. There was so much noise because of the wind. You couldn't believe it." John C. McCaw, the motel's m a n a g e r, was surveying the damage today. He said water came through the roof and dam- aged about 60 rooms on two lev- els. The motel has 120 rooms. Firemen were able to extin- guish a gasoline storage tank fire caused by lightening in Chesa- peake. No one was injured in the fire, which burned for more than an hour. The storm also blew out 145 feet of freshly erected cinder block in the north walls of the new Rena B. Wright school in Chesapeake.

The Virginian Monday, June 22, 1970 # Lightning Sparks Tank Fire Fireball Seen Over Chesapeake By DAVE LEONARD Virginian-Pilot Staff Writer CHESAPEAKE - Lightning struck a 35-foot tall gasoline storage tank early Sunday causing a fire that burned more than an hour, fire fighters reported. Witnesses said flames roared skyward in a fireball visible for miles about 2:25 a.m. when lightning struck a 30,000-barrel Texaco tank near Bank and Maulden streets, South Hill. Acting Fire Chief D. S. Keay said the flames died suddenly about 3:36 a.m. while two huge streams of water cooled the tank. Two Navy foam trucks arrived as the flames died. No one was hurt by the blaze. Fire fighters admitted they were concerned, especially after reports of fatalities in an oil fire in Franklin, Pa., storage area Friday and Saturday. The lightning and fire ruptured the tank top. Fire fighters said the tank was about half full and no flaming liquid reached the ground. Two deluge water guns, one atop an aerial ladder, continued to pour water on the tank until about 6 a.m. when Texaco officials said the tank's internal temperature was back to a normal 79 degrees. Many residents reported seeing the fireball erupt during the lightning-punctuated storm. Scott Sherman, occupant of a home less than 100 yards from the tank, said he saw the lightning hit. Flames erupt from burning storage tank. Photo by Clinton Hirdlinger "I saw so much light," he said, "and I thought the house was on fire." Sherman said a three-pronged bolt hit, and fire erupted from the top rear of the tank. Sherman said he and his wife ran from the house into the rain. Moments earlier he had closed windows as the rain began. Acting Battalion Chief James Doughtie said the strategy used to fight the fire involved handheld lines to cool the fire as soon as the first four pumpers arrived. Four 2 1/2-inch lines were attached to an unmanned deluge gun and fire fighters retreated to a safer distance to await foam units from Norfolk Naval Base and Air Station. A Norfolk aerial ladder, called when Chesapeake's ladder failed to operate, projected a second large stream atop the tank from Bank Street. === **Page: 5 of 10** Storm Knocks Out Electricity to Some From Page 1 of Virginia Beach, rescued two men who were floating on life cushions after their 13-foot outboard overturned near the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. Billy T. Cooper, a passenger on Loziato's boat estimated the seas at 10 to 15 feet and winds at 60 to 65 m.p.h. They rode out the storm, which lasted nearly an hour, northeast of the Bridge-Tunnel's fourth island. The Coast Guard cutters reported making numerous rescues, including a father and son in Chesapeake Bay. Hardest hit by the storm was the Quality Courts Motel in the 1500 block of West Ocean View Avenue. The winds knocked half the roof off the 120-room motel. John C. McCaw, motel manag- roof and furniture in the rooms at about $100,000. Although about 30 of the rooms were occupied, he said, no one was injured. He said the motel will remain open while repairs are made to the roof. The Weather Bureau said the storm was caused by a squall line ahead of a low-pressure area moving west to east. The high winds were not unexpected as a severe thunderstorm watch had been in effect from 8:55 a.m. and a tornado watch from 1:15 p.m. Both were lifted at 6 p.m. Wing gusts up to 80 m.p.h. whipped Blackstone in eastern Virginia and small hail was reported near Raleigh-Durham, N.C. The tornado watch was issued for portions of the Carolinas as well as southeast Virginia. Scattered damage was caused by the storm as the winds felled trees and knocked limbs across power lines. bumper to bumper in two lanes, for more than three miles from the intersection at Pleasure House Road. Thousands of people on the beach at Sandbridge, south to the North Carolina state line, were warned of the storm by city police to clear the beaches. Lt. Carl Weast of the 1st Precinct said some paid no attention to the warnings and "wished they had," but no problems were reported. A report that two people were aboard an airfloat being blown to sea off the beach at 53rd Street was apparently false, a spokesman for the Fire Department said. The search was called off about 30 minutes after it began. During the peak of the storm, many small boats sought safety inside the Lynnhaven and Rudee inlets, and one sailboat that overturned was finally brought ashore at Chesapeake Beach without injury to its occupants, police said. Power was lost for more than seven hours in scattered parts of Norfolk, said J. T. Mason, Virginia Electric Power Co.'s district superintendent. He said that more than 10,000 homes in Norfolk, Portsmouth, Virginia Beach, and Chesapeake were without power during the storm. The storm also damaged power lines throughout Suffolk and the Tri-County Area, leaving hundreds of homes without electricity for several hours. Vepco crews were kept busy until late Sunday night clearing limbs from high-voltage lines and repairing downed lines. In Virginia Beach, the most serious problem was a massive traffic jam on Shore Drive at Pleasure House Road and at Northampton Boulevard created by power failure in the Bayside area of the city. At one time, westbound traffic on Shore Drive was backed up, In the South Norfolk section of Chesapeake, a wall of the new Rena B. Wright Elementary School collapsed. Officials at the school, under construction at Park Avenue and Perry Street, were unable to estimate damage or say how much delay can be expected in completion of the building. State Trooper E. H. Davis Jr. said an automobile on U.S. 58-460 seven miles east of Suffolk was blown off the highway and hit a tree. The victims were identified as Mrs. Phyllis Crumble, of the 100 block of Ackiss Avenue, Virginia Beach, and her two sons, James, 5, and Darrell, 4. Mrs. Crumble and James were treated and released and Darrell was admitted to Maryview Hospital for a possible head injury. A home on U.S. 460 north of Suffolk was heavily damaged with it was apparently struck by lightning, firemen said. The storm also blew out 145 feet of freshly erected cinder block in the north walls of the new Rena B. Wright school in Chesapeake. The wall was 12 feet high and was ready to receive steel joists. The Coast Guard's own, the cutter Sebago, went aground on Willoughby Shoals about three quarters of a mile southwest of the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel.

Firemen were still at the scene at midnight. The intense blaze started about 7:30 p.m. Saturday during a thunderstorm in which a lightning bolt struck the 48-foot-high tank at the district plant of the Humble Oil & Refining Co. Only moments before the fire started, the Humble tanker Esso San Francisco at the plant pier had suspended unloading operations because of the storm danger. Several persons on the pier saw the tank hit by the lightning. The ship was then moved from the pier. Firemen battled the blaze throughout the night and into Sunday evening in an effort to keep it from igniting other gasoline storage tanks nearby. The flames lit the sky by night and trailed a thick fog of black smoke in a southwesterly direction Sunday afternoon. Residents of a nearby trailer court left their homes Saturday night as huge fireballs leaped from the blazing tank. Spectators lined Hampton Boulevard, even in intermittent July 4 rain, to watch the brilliant flames. The spectators were still there Sunday although the intensity of the fire had abated somewhat. No firemen were reported injured during the blaze, Murray A. Roberts, regional operation. Photo by Ben Pulliam The tank blazes in a melted ruin amid other tanks filled with gasoline. (See Fire, Page A4) === **Page: 9 of 10** Under Control Out From Page 1 manager for Humble, said that the damage caused by the blaze would have to be estimated by professional assessors. The 55,000 barrel tank (42 gallons to a barrel) contained "just under 29,000 barrels" of Esso Plus gasoline Roberts said. The tank wall melted down to 18 feet from its original 48 feet. Firemen tried throughout the night to smother the blaze with foam, but without success. "The tremendous updraft from the heat carried the light foam up in the air," said Norfolk Fire Chief Lawrence B. Wilson. Wilson said fire fighters got a favorable break in controlling the blaze about 10 a.m. Sunday when the wind died down and shifted to the northeast, blowing the heat and flames away from the other storage tanks. During the darkness hours of Saturday night and Sunday morning the wind sometimes whipped the intense heat and flames sideways so that firemen had to douse one another's clothes and their equipment with water to keep them from igniting. Norfolk sent nine engine companies, two ladder trucks, and one salvage unit to the scene and kept 150 firemen working at the blaze in five and six-hour shifts. The Navy sent two crash trucks from the Norfolk Naval Air Station, a pumping engine from the Naval Station, two fire boats and a tug. The fireboats were later withdrawn. The Coast Guard sent the cutters Mochican, Point Brown, and Cherokee, but later reduced the standby to just the Cherokee. Civil Defense volunteers also aided the fight. Red Cross volunteers and women's auxiliary of the Fire Department served food to the fire fighters. Chesapeake and Virginia Beach fire departments and the Norfolk Naval Station Fire Department sent units to stand duty in Norfolk stations left under-manned because of the fire. senfield said with more than a trace of sorrow. "We've had six Sundays at home and only one really good day, when our Kid's Day promotion drew 3,083. Two others were played in bad weather and three we have lost. We've drawn 82,000 people, almost 50,000 ahead of last year's pace, but with those three Sundays we'd be close to 90,000."

To the Si's we are a most valuable animal species which they are studying and trying to perfect, through the ages. The OI's try to get rid of us...the Si's try to help us and perfect us. It was the OI's who "planted" the idea for nuclear and atomic warfare in the human brain, which then came into fruition. They then speeded up our technological abilities, knowing full well they were implanting ideas into our human brains faster than our human souls and human psychologies could absorb them...they were, in effect, building a time-bomb into the human race. The OI's have done such a good job...of helping us eliminate ourselves...that the Si's have been desperate enough to actually request a base on earth, in the U.S., for purposes of trying to avert the nuclear holocaust they know is on its way. Are you familiar with...if the right note is struck, it can break a glass vessel? Are you familiar with the mysterious number of deaths of hillbilly singers these past ten years? Dozens of them killed in a weird, mystifying number of ways? It's true, if you'll check. Well, their own music killed them. Their wailing, sad, crying music...created conditions around them to destroy them. Mass music can accomplish that, say the Si's. They say the OI's deliberately implanted the "rock" and "go-go" music now sweeping the country...and this music, mass music, creates destructive conditions on a far greater scale even than hillbilly music. Instead of one note breaking a glass...multiply that same note by a million, and what do you get? You see? The Si's say that music is not just sound that fades away quickly...but it actually causes conditions around it. They say this music will wreck this country in this manner faster than a previous-type war could. One by-product of this rock music is to drive listeners to use dope...which is what the OI's want...because while the rock listener is on dope, the OI's can somehow insert their intelligence and plant powerful suggestions into the mind and soul of the one on dope, which will then effect humans around that dope person later...effect, and infect. Yes, mass music can cause mass vibrations, which will effect humans en masse, say the Si's. Something to think about. Of course, what I am saying here is nothing of my usual work...no documented material. Just file it. But...you might think about it.

Let's recap. You brought Pincon over to see me. He was insulting. I wrote you and told you the Si's would give him a spanking for that. (He got off lightly compared to what has happened to others who insulted me.) In the newspapers a few days ago I read that Pincon's house... which is a haven for hippies... was raided by the police, who caught one of the men in the house with hashish in his pockets. Now, what will be the result of that? From now on you may rest assured that all mail going to and going from that house will be intercepted and scanned. Mail cover. The phone(s) may be tapped. Probably. The doctors and respectable professional men who have been dealing with that house... now will have sober second thoughts, certainly not wishing to be embarrassed by having their connection with a "haven" which shelters dope addicts with dope in their pockets, and police running in and out, known. They will probably drop away their professional support. Pincon himself will no doubt have his past scrutinized as it has never been scrutinized before. And if I read him right, it will not stand scrutinizing. In short... nice spanking. Ted Owens (PK Man) P.S. And of course it will be much more difficult for him now to get financial backing for the "haven". Or cult, as the case may be. Owens === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 3 of 52 Dr Sprinkle Saturday, July 18, 1970 President Nixon: At 2:15 P.M., as I was having lunch at the Puritan Cafe in Norfolk, the top intelligence of the Si's appeared on the empty seat opposite me...it has a black, shapeless head with blazing eyes...that's all I could see...and this is the first time it has ever done this. As I looked at it in astonishment...it seemed to fumble for words...as I would in Mexico City trying to order something in Spanish...and slowly, very slowly, the following message appeared: "TELL PRESIDENT DANGER SOON!" And then it vanished. And that was all I could get. I tried to figure out...if it meant danger for you, personally.. such as an attempted assassination by some nut, or danger for the U.S. About the only way I could get a clue...would be to go by my "feeling" that went with the message...and the "feeling" is that it is personal danger to you, in the immediate future. Say, for the next 90 days your life might be in the greatest danger from some unexpected source. (That 90 days is my guess.) I called the Secret Service here in Norfolk at 2:30, but no answer; guess they don't work on Saturday here. There's no quick pipeline to you for info the Si's give me, which is a pity. If they warn me of some disaster on Saturday or Sunday...and it strikes on Saturday or Sunday...there's no way to get it topside, the message, that is. I.e., "soon" as the Si's say...might mean today or tomorrow... in which case this message would be too late. You see? No way to get it to you at all from Norfolk. So, seeing as how the Si's used a "first" to get this message across...not relying on their usual method of communication... I would guess that something really big is up, aimed at you personally...and it might be a good idea to avoid the White House for a bit. Or tip off just where you'll be for a bit. And be careful, very careful, at this point of time...keep well guarded. Trusted guards, even. Ted Owens, (PK Man) Box 3141 CHS, Norfolk, Va. Owens P.S. I think the danger may stem from a Senator or Congressman or perhaps official, high official, willing to pay the price of an attempt on your life. === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 4 of 52 July 11, 1970 Dr. Sprinkle PM July 11, 1970 Dr. Hynek; I am going to perform an experiment...just for you along. That is, in your honor. Since you live, I suppose, in Evanston, and are a scientist at Northwestern University...this gives us, you and me, an excellent opportunity for a full-blown experiment utilizing not only my own PK powers...but Si powers as well. When the Jets played the All-Stars last year...I used PK on the game to beat the world champions...and almost did. Game ended 27-29, or something like that. The All Stars came from way behind...and given just a few more minutes, with My PK, would have beaten Namath and the Jets. (You have to understand that I do not win each and every game with my PK powers...I take a certain team and pursue it through the season... and tell the coach of that pro team in advance of the season that he will not be able to win the World Championship, because my PK will block the team. Last year I told Weeb Eubank before the season, coach of the Jets; also the Eagles; and the Miami Dolphins, who had a poor chance, but they told me they had a good chance, so I made sure they didn't. So this year I'll pursue the Kansas City Chiefs...World Champions...with my PK...to block them from winning the Championship. And I'll start with their first game against the All-Stars on July 31 at the stadium at Northwestern. Now, here is what I'll do: Am going to set up an EM grid (electromagnetic grid) over the stadium that night. It will be an ODE grid (other-dimensional, unseen) but it should have powerful effect on the stadium, and on the people in the stadium, since individuals have EM fields of their own. It could effect the power at the stadium, radios, TV broadcasting, etc. Then...I'll personally, using my brain, attack the KC Chiefs on every play...which can cause weird things to happen. Unusual fumbles; unusual breaks in favor of the All Stars. And injuries, because the PK works in a thousand ways...and of course to injure key players would be basic in stopping the Chiefs. Then...I'll go further. I will signal the UFO intelligences that I deal with...and request them to send one or more craft near or over the stadium, to insert their own phenomena into the game. (They can be invisible, other-dimensional, so they probably will not be seen.) So, all in all, it should be a wild, unusual game...and I'll do my utmost to help the All Stars win it. But if they do not, at least I hope to be able to show you a wide range of phenomena during the game directly attributable to the Si's...and my own brain. As I said...I do not depend on one single game to stop a World Championship team from repeating...but will use the All Stars as a hammer against the Chiefs...in this game. But I will do my best to make the Chiefs lose the game. IT IS INFINITELY BETTER IF I CAN BE AT THE GAME MYSELF. As it is, I have to do my work over TV, watching the game that way. But...I have no money to fly to Evanston, stay overnight, and pay my way into the game. Am a financially poor man. It should be fascinating...and am delighted to be able to set up an experiment which you can observe yourself. As you know...am doing wonderfully here in Norfolk right now...bringing in storm after storm, with lightning attacks. There's no question about it. Best... Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 5 of 52 July 12, 1970 Dr. Hynek Dr. Sprinkle Gentlemen: Something startling and new has occurred...in my relationship with the UFO intelligences (Si's) and I thought I should relay it on to you. For years...in causing storms and lightning-attacks on areas... the Si's have had me extend my fingers toward the sky and "see" in my mind bolts of lightning flashing out of my extended fingers toward the sky. There is more to it, but that's enough to tell you about that. Several days ago...standing outside and extending my hand toward the sky and preparing to bring more rain to now-soggy and groggy and inundated Virginia...the Si's stopped me. They communicated that my mind HAD REACHED A NEW PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT. They seemed to be quite pleased about it. As if I had "graduated" from something less to something more. They told me...from now on to just look at the sky, and I would be able to "see" lightning bolts flashing out of my eyes at the sky. They said my brain had new power of some sort, now. That I was "different now." They also warned me...to be sure NOT to ever look at any person or living thing...and "see" the lightning bolts flashing from my eyes. That it would destroy that person or living thing. They told me that I had had so much experience by now...in controlling the various other-dimensional effects...that they felt it was quite safe to trust me in this regard; i.e., not to lose my temper and use the lightning bolts from the eyes on some trivial argument or even fight with some human or humans. Or to use it in any wrong way, for that matter. What impressed me was: their emotion over this development. Ordinarily the Si's do not reflect an emotion. Can't recall their ever having reflected an emotion...and didn't think they were capable of it. But this development seemed to be something very big to them. My own impression: they are leading me, taking me, step by step, upwards on some kind of scale...to see how much power of theirs a human can contain and survive...to see how a human brain which has been modified by them (they did that to me years ago) could grow and progress under that modification. You don't know my mind and mental processes...but I love children; have had many opportunities to kill attackers in combat situations, yet did not do so; I love pets; won't even hunt because I can't conceive of killing God's creatures unless I were starving, just to survive; and I have steel-nerved control over these reflexes. Just thought the above might be interesting to you, to know about. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134, CHS, Norfolk, Va. Owens === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 6 of 52 July 12, 1970 Mr. Hank Stram, Coach Kansas City Chiefs Football Team Liberty, Missouri Dear Mr. Stram: I regret to say...that I must, for the sake of a demonstration...block, and stop, the Kansas City Chiefs Football Team this 1970 season...with my mind...from attaining World Championship status again this year. In other words...from this moment on your team has no chance whatsoever of becoming World Champion. And it might never, from this time on, because "PK" grows, once it is once used...as the Philadelphia Eagles found out. Not only did I wreck their team; get Kuharich fired; put Wolman into bankruptcy...but this has continued...as you know the Eagles have just been "frozen" in a sort of limbo, etc. Of course you won't believe this...that a man's mind...could wreck your fine team. It would only be human to disbelieve it. For nothing like it has ever existed. What you can expect: A season of unprecedented fumbling, bumbling, strange freak accidents and injuries, all causing games to be lost. It will be weird. And that's how you will know...that "PK Man" is doing it with his mind. I could not, of course, put on this demonstration with a weak team. It must of necessity be the toughest and best team in the world...and that happens to be your team. I respectfully suggest...that you do not throw this letter away...file it...and remember it. ********** You might as well know something further...I control pro football. Last season I was instrumental in controlling various pro football teams. This is a plain fact. Check with the owners of the Miami Dolphins; with the coach of the Jets, or Namath; and the Phila. Eagles staff. I told them in advance of the season what to expect. I also control pro basketball; but that's beside the point, and not important here. It will be a strange, weird game when you play the All Stars, because my control will begin in that game. You just might win it, if you are lucky...but it will be at high price. However, power from another dimension...will be working against your team...in that game on July 31st.

Singer Dr. Sprinkle Important Otto: An extraordinary thing has occurred, which I want you to know about immediately. As well as Mr. Singer. Enclosed is a letter which is self-explanatory. It is very valuable to me, and you can return it whenever you are able. Now...you recall some months ago...that I notified you that the Si's would actually "broadcast" all over the U.S., from their craft, in the way that they have...in order to subtly force people to buy Saga when it came out with our story? Matter of fact, Mr. Singer sent me an advance copy so that I could telepathize the cover to the Si's...so that they in turn could telepathize it, with an order to get it, to the American people everywhere. I just received a letter from a man I've never heard of. Mr. Avram Davidson, 2 Wootton Road, Essex Fells, New Jersey, 07021. In the letter Mr. Davidson (1) says that he was mentally forced into going and looking for Saga and buying it...with our story in it, and (2) he was then forced to notify me about it. What this means...is that the Si's actually had him do this...in order to notify me, and you, and Mr. Singer...that they were cooperating with us! He begins by talking about reading my book...then, "Then I started getting a desire to read this months SAGA magazine. I found myself canvasing stores I never went into before looking for this months SAGA. Sort of getting mugged into buying the magazine. Naturally this issue started with an interview with you...I might add that I have been thinking of writing to you for some time but never until now got around to it." He goes on and ends with: "Well sir my question is this, are the SI in some manner desiring me to contact you? I realize that this is virtually stupid of me, as well as damn egotistical, but I was wondering if they were after me to write to you? I'm sorry if I have wasted your time with this letter, but something inside of me was sort of pestering me to do it." And there you have it. One of the most amazing things I've ever encountered! Of course he would have no way of knowing of the arrangement I'd set up...to get an advance copy...to broadcast the suggestion through the Si's, etc. Do you agree on this?

They make you this offer...because you are the only one locally who has given them any exposure at all, even if at times it was not the exact exposure they wanted. If you do not accept their offer herein, then they will make the offer to Bonko and the Ledger-Star. After that they will withdraw the offer completely. Their offer: In your column mention that on a certain day you will print a certain phrase of words in your column, that the SI's have told me to pass on to you. If that certain column containing the certain phrase of words is clipped out and kept on the person of that reader, and underneath their pillow at night, with the reader saying that phrase of words once daily...then tremendous good fortune will come to that reader. It is not necessary at all that the reader believe in it or have any faith in it. And you can express your skepticism as much as you like. All that is necessary is...that the reader follow instructions. And you will ask...readers to send in any odd, unusual results they might get...to be serious about it, no funnies...for you to "file". The SI's state that this will result in a tremendous sale of papers...and bring an enormous amount of attention and "word of mouth" publicity to your paper, which of course is money in the bank to your paper over the long run. I know you've just done a column on the SI's...that's why I didn't want to write this. The SI's, however, do not care about that. Remember, they are not humans. If I don't hear from you on this within a short time, say by next Wednesday, will send the SI offer to Bonko and the Ledger-Star. If they are not interested, then that's it.

Quandary: I proposed a bargain, (for the Si's): I would quit making it rain constantly in this area, if the paper would publish a confirmation of the Multiple-Miracles which I'd just brought about (through the Si's) in this area. You dropped over, said okay, and ran the article. BUT: the article did not mention that I said in writing I'd bring a storm in a week, and got it in five days; that I'd make weird electromagnetic effects happen in this area, and then the "strange object in the sky" appeared; that I'd save the crops, and they were saved; that I'd actually bring a hurricane close enough to water the area down with rain, and Hurricane Becky did just that. And so forth. These were the things you were supposed to publish, to make our agreement valid...yet you did not. Just a vague general mention that I'd written "a month ago" I'd make it rain and storm, and there'd been a "few". Ha. All right. Now, problem. You did publish a confirmation for the Si's, although you confirmed the wrong things. And you seem to be in good faith about the matter; and want the rain stopped. Do I keep it raining all summer long (I can certainly do that) because you didn't give the Si's what they want? Or do I remove the mechanism that's set up...and make it stop raining...because you did produce a confirmation column, albeit the wrong confirmation, in good faith, but just erring? Here is what the Si's have instructed me: I'm to keep on making it rain week after week, until I hear from you on this. If I do not hear from you on this then I'm to assume that you either don't care whether it rains or not, or, since the Si's are allowing you to be the fair judge of the matter...you realize you didn't give them what they wanted, and judge that the rain should continue. In the event that you write and tell me you thought the article was what the Si's wanted, and did it in good faith expecting the rain to end...then and only then will I stop the rainfall. Okay?

The central dispatcher for the Virginia Beach fire and rescue squad said today two radio transmitters were knocked out in his office by surges in power from the storm. Virginia Beach Junior High School, The Cavalier Hotel and at least four residences in scattered areas of the city placed calls to the fire department for assistance between 7:30 and 11 p.m. There were no injuries or major fires. The U.S. Weather Bureau at Norfolk Regional Airport said today the thunderstorm was confined to Virginia Beach and had little effect on other Tidewater area cities. A spokesman at the Weather Bureau said the storm was located north, east and south of the airport and he called it a "typical thunderstorm." He also said there has been a theory advanced lately that the unusually large amount of haze in the area is responsible in part for lightning being grounded more easily. The haze condition might have helped, he said, but this is only a theory that is being studied. Elsewhere in Virginia Beach, the Virginia Electric and Power Co. said it had a "hectic" night. "We had a lot of wind, rain and lightning," said Wallace Faison, district supervisor for the Virginia Beach Vepco office. "There were no widespread power failures." Faison said the affected areas included Thalia Creek, Kings Grant, Kingston, Little Neck and Malibu. The power failures affected only three or four customers in each of the areas, he said. A transformer on a utility pole exploded when struck by the lightning and caught fire, he said. According to the rescue squad dispatcher, the two radios knocked out at the Princess Anne Plaza headquarters were a stand-by remote fire transmitter and the Public Works Department transceiver. Officials at the Cavalier Hotel said today no damage occurred to the building. This lightning attack -- called by me in advance, in writing. (Documented.) Owens === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 12 of 52 August 1, 1970 .......... TO ALL CONTACTS (1) Re my EM and demonstration on this Norfolk/Virginia Beach area, large headline in the newspaper Ledger-Star here last night, 7/31/70: "VIRGINIA BEACH HIT BY SEVERE LIGHTNING" by Jack Dorsey. It points out that a severe lightning attack...caused bolts of lightning to hit more than a dozen places in Virginia Beach...including the Virginia Beach High School, The Cavalier Hotel (famous spot) and "at least" four homes in scattered areas of the city...the "storm" was confined to Virginia Beach.. two radio transmitters were knocked out "by surges in power" (see my earlier correspondence to you re the "grid" that would indeed cause surges in power)...the authorities stated this lightning attack "is being studied" as to its cause...the Virginia Electric and Power Company said it had a "hectic night." And it is interesting that one of the radio transmitters knocked out was a "fire transmitter"..(do you recall that for a joke I stood in front of the fire department and signalled for a lightning attack recently?) (2) The All Star-KC Chiefs Game last night. Score: Chiefs 24, Stars 3. And I told you...that I would use my mind, PK powers, to block and stop the Chiefs, right? Well, you say, obviously it didn't work, right? Wrong. The PK worked amazingly well. Let me show you how it did. The World Champions only made, earned, one touchdown. That's 7 points. And they got a kick. That's 3 points. All together the Chief's champion offensive team...only made 10 points! Not only that, but during the entire second half of the game, and remember they were playing, as it turned out, an impotent, helpless Star team that couldn't run and couldn't pass...during the entire second half the Chiefs could not score. They tried every trick in the book, too. And Dawson, said to be the best quarterback in all the pro teams, played just about the whole game. Now, the extra 14 points...were gift points..."cheap" touchdowns, as the pros put it...not made on purpose by the crack offensive team, but scored by the defensive team when the Star quarterbacks simply threw the ball away to Chief defenders, who took the gifts and ambled over for scores. I think that Hank Stram, the Chiefs coach, would be fair enough to tell you...that the lowly Miami Dolphins, with equal practice time, could have beaten them, the Chiefs, last night. Not only that...the PK stopping the Chiefs very cold...but the PK gave the All Stars opportunites to make touchdowns at least a half a dozen times! But what did they do with the opportunities? Threw the ball away into the arms of the Chiefs, or dropped passes, stumbled and bumbled and tossed away every opportunity the PK attack gave them. As I wrote you previously...the PK cannot carry the ball. All it can do is pave the way for scoring, by blocking the other team and holding back the other team. The favored team must capitalize on the breaks... and this is where the Stars broke down. Without the two cheap gift touchdowns...the score would have been 10-3; and if the Stars had scored even two or three of the splendid chances the PK gave them to make touchdowns...they'd have beaten the Chiefs easily. If you will watch the Chiefs now, as they go further into the season... you'll see them fall apart with key injuries. They'll win some games; but the PK will take them apart...and they won't be World Champions again. You may think this is all poppycock; but I've been attacking with PK for several years - you might say I'm a pro at it - and remember how I dismantled the Eagles! Believe me, it's mighty potent stuff!

Dyer, Court Reporter Dr. Sprinkle Knows any other human who can call the shot on 2 months of rain, at least once a week? (Starting with drought) Well, well, well...you see? You didn't pay attention. And look what happened! As you know, since I first wrote you and put on record that I intended bringing rain to this drought-stricken area...this area has had rain every week for about two months, approx. I haven't missed one single week, have I, in bringing rain to this area since first writing to you? Well, then...all I got from you was silence...so I put up an other-dimensional EM grid...so cause radio and TV and other electrical and EM weird effects in the area. Also, I warned you that Virginia Beach was going to be smarting...as the result of this rain, continued rain, and the loss of tourist dollars. Hokay! You know what happened Thursday, July 16...giant Art Show at the Beach...people there by the thousands...an Annual Art Show. Outside. And the artists gleefully set up their paintings and rubbed their hands, seeing dollar signs in these thousands of onlookers. Swoosh! Down came the rain. People ran in all directions. Oil paintings and other paintings simply vanished as the rain poured down on them...and all those lovely dollar signs vanished, too, in the eyes of the artists...as they watched those lovely thousands of people run for their dry lives. I quote the newspaper: "Rain interrupted the show (art) twice Thursday and cut the volume of sales. Last year the total was about $19,000.00 for the first two days." Based on the last year sales...the artists could have dropped roughly $9,000.00 (which is more than I make in a week). The next day...Friday...without repeated rainstorms...the artists made $13,669.00. So...I warned you in advance they'd drop a bundle at the Beach from the rain...but you didn't listen...and they did. Just as an added phillip...on Thursday nite and Friday nite, June 16 and 17...TV sets went haywire in this area...and across the TV screen flashed the message: "This is not your TV set, but due to co-channel atmospheric interference." There was also loss of sound on programs and other freakish things happening. The "grid" is getting stronger now. But...Hope Is On The Horizon. Possibly the Si's may get their wish, bless their little hearts...and this true miraculous story just might get printed, so that it will be on record...in which case the storms will come to a screeching halt...and all will be Heaven again for those Lovely Tourists, as well as the nail-biting Va. Beach Chamber of Commerce.

The cloudbursts late Thursday snarled rush-hour traffic in the Washington area, knocked out power and telephone lines and flooded numerous low-lying street intersections. Showers persisted from the Rockies to the western Plains. Heavy thunderstorms also swept parts of the Gulf Coast region late Thursday. THE OUTLOOK: Scattered showers and thunderstorms are predicted today from the Central Gulf Coast through the Atlantic Coast states. Showers are also expected over the Northern and Central Rockies and in portions of the Central Plains. weather maps...and you Rain pours down over the weekend....then there's a lull of a few days while the necessary ingredients for the next deluge are rounded up and brought across the country to here...and wham!

The primary duty...of a newspaper...is to keep its public, the people, informed of the truth of things...no matter what. Even UFO's. So yesterday and today...the area has been deluged, and bombarded with more lightning. Matter of fact, the area is now getting quite soggy...floods everywhere; baseball games rained out; racetrack flooded out; rivers flooding over, and so forth. And of course...the tourists, and all those lovely dollars, ain't happy at all. How can they be...dodging lightning bolts and wiping driving rain out of their eyes? It is very interesting...how my UFO friends do this, you know. Unless I've missed count...five weeks in a row, the same thing has occurred. To bring the rain (and lightning) to the Norfolk/Virginia Beach area...the ingredients are rounded up on the west coast and the mid west, and then they are moved to this area, where they are parked long enough to do a fine job on this area of storms and lightning as per my "arrangement." Simply check your weather maps...and you will see that it has been so.

It happened this morning--note time on the clock--when a thundercloud drifted over. Automatic switches turned on the street lights. Motorists had to turn on car lights. And then the rain poured down, drenching pedestrians like these on Brambleton Avenue near Boush Street. Before long, however, the rain let up and the sun struggled to come through.

Flooding 7/23/70 ALEXANDRIA (AP) -- Eastern area headquarters of the American Red Cross said its chapters in Southwest Virginia, Western North Carolina, and Southeastern West Virginia have been alerted to be prepared for possible flash flooding from 6 p.m. Wednesday until noon today. The flood watch covered 12 Virginia counties as Tropical Storm Becky moved northward with rainfall up to 6 inches possible, according to the Weather Bureau. The Virginia counties warned included Wise, Dickenson, Buchanan, Tazewell, Bland, Giles, Montgomery, Pulaski, Wythe, Floyd, Carroll, and Grayson. A Red Cross spokesman said chapter workers and national disaster staffs are standing by to render any assistance that may be necessary. Persons in the affected counties living in low-lying areas or along streams were advised to keep tuned to local radio or television stations for further reports. In event of serious flooding, the spokesman said, instructions will be broadcast for evacuations and places of shelters. ot, Thursday, July 23, 1970 WEATHER BUREAU FORECAST TO 7:00 P.M.

Dyer, Court Reporter Ever been propositioned by a flying saucer? Well, you are being, now. The Si's communicated with me today and directed me to send this message. Their request: that the local newspapers tell the public that they have saved the local crops, which were in disaster-danger from drought. (Have you noticed your third rainstorm is going on this morning outside?) Let the writer explain the letters IN ADVANCE of the rainstorms, saying it would happen. Also they request that the mysterious "halo" that the Weather Bureau could not explain, be connected with the letter stating that this area would be electro-magnetized by an other-dimensional grid...and that weird, strange things WOULD happen, like that halo. In short, they want the people, the public, to know what is transpiring. (And incidentally, if any of your friends start behaving peculiarly...the Si's say that this giant electro-magnetic field WILL AFFECT HUMANS, because each of us has an electrical field of our own.) In return...the Si's will cease with their rainstorms. Now, why should the local newspapers cooperate in this? Very simple. Bundles and bundles of money will be lost...by this resort area, famous resort area...with the rain pouring down every few days, on and on. Mrs. Gotrocks in New York will tell her husband..."dear, let's not go down to Virginia Beach this season, too much rain down there...let's go somewhere else." And they will, too. And the people here in the hotels and motels will have to sit inside the hotels and motels, cussing and chewing on their fingernails in frustration. Lots of tourist money involved. And the Si's say...they will begin to show their craft, their flying saucers and strange UFO's...in this area soon. Incidentally...I work for nobody...part-time typist picking up typing jobs here and there. Need any typing done up there?

Dyer, Court Reporter Dr. Sprinkle In this letter...am going to make you a most interesting...proposition. But first...have a chuckle for the day. You know, of course, that lightning struck and destroyed the Humble Oil tank over the weekend, and the local fire department was on the job the whole weekend trying to contain it. Well at noon today I strolled over and stood right in front of the Fire Department and signalled the Si's to produce lots more lightning and storms. Heh heh. How fiendish can you get? Now, to serious business. IF one of your newspapers will publish this entire matter...my letters, the dates on them...the drought...crops in danger...storms...crops saved...lightning attacks as per my call on it...Electromagnetic "grid" then the sighting of the "strange object in the sky". The whole thing. Publish it. Then I'll tell you what I'll do. For starters...I'll stop making storms and hitting Norfolk with lightning. For a bonus I'll do this: Most people think that Pete Rozelle, Commissioner of Pro Football, controls pro football. Actually, he does not. Owens does. Last year I controlled the Eagles, the Dolphins, and the Jets. They know about it, and so do my contacts. I think Maddry saw enough documentation on my work with pro football and basketball, to know something about this. All right. Now, the Si's have a plan of their own...to attack all pro teams this coming season with the object of creating entire teams of walking-wounded. Well, that's their business. But I'll tell you what I'll do. The paper that prints the above story that the Si's want printed...may choose any five pro football teams they want, for the coming pro season, to be losers. And you can start with the World Champions to be number one losers, if you want to. I'll take those five teams...and beat them with my mind...just my mind...this coming pro season. Freakish things will happen to them...and they will not be able to make a Championship. They'll be losers next season. I can do all that...as easily as I make storms and lightning attacks. Try me, and see. Your readers should be fascinated to see...whether I can do it or not, even if you are not especially interested. Now, you might think it is childish for the Si's to take a special interest in such a trivial thing as pro football. But I happen to know their plan...and it is ultra-brilliant. Not trivial at all. Just looks that way.

Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 23 of 52 Lawrence Maddry HEYWOOD HALE BROUN, CBS News sports-caster, was in Norfolk Tuesday, a Little Orphan Annie in a sportcoat as outrageously flowered as a Tahitian garden. He was here to interview Ted Owens, the city's resident evil eye. Accompanied by a CBS-TV crew, this gentleman of the twinkle-twitch eyes and rakish moustache performed a neat little miracle of television reportage which will explain Owens' hex on football's Baltimore Colts. The scenario, which roams from the cluttered and bizarre apartment where Owens' tuning fork rings the ears, to the clank and thump of cargo loaded onto hulking containerships at Norfolk International Terminals, to the black cat, electric purr of psychedelic lights in the back of The Magic Shop, probably will be viewed nationally over CBS, either this weekend or next. This goblins-will-get-you-if-you-don't-watch-out drama, reported here earlier, has been improved upon by Broun, a master of the lyrical phrase, who arrived in Norfolk after covering the Preakness with its "rhythmic pounding of hoofbeat energy." "I defied all logic by selecting Impetuosity because of a friendship with its owner," he said. He will ride, spiritually, with Preakness winner Canonero II in the Belmont. Even those unfamiliar with Heywood Hale Broun must surely know his father, the crusading giant of American journalism who, like his son, was acutely conscious of "the pore and needy ones 'at clusters all about'" the American landscape. Heywood HALE Broun It was Woody's father (Heywood Hale prefers the nickname) who immortalized Babe Ruth and was fired by his newspaper for his ringing defense of the tormented Sacco and Vanzetti, the shoe-trimmer and fish peddler executed in a haunting miscarriage of justice of the 1920s. To have such a father is a blessing and curse. The sire haunts him like the ghost of Hamlet's father. He knows that he will never wear the crown worn with loveable carelessness by his father. Thus, in the CBS coverage of the Preakness, Broun nasally intones that only one of the horses is weighted with the heavy burden of having to do what his father did. He alternately rejects his father and then speaks lovingly of him. Bud Lamoreaux, the savagely knowledgeable CBS News sports producer, recalled that Broun is really the third member of the family to bear the name "Heywood Broun." The CBS Broun stuck in the name === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 24 of 52 Hale (his mother was a Hale) in a desperate effort to find his own identity. As Lamoreaux explained: "Nothing pleases him more than to find someone who has never heard of his father but has seen Woody on TV. The person will say: 'Ah, Mr. Hale Broun. I enjoy your stuff on CBS.' Woody's eyes light up like candles with the sheer joy of it." TOGETHER, Lamoreaux and Broun have raised sports reportage to a level that closely parallels art. Broun will likely describe a distance runner as a "vaunt-courier jogging with loose-limbed exhaltation through the shadowed arches of the stadium." Broun was for years supporting actor, trying to establish himself in a role alien to his father. He was orphaned, in effect, by his famous parents who were unable to give their offspring the attention of homebodies in more normal circumstances. Only Broun's friends recall the lonely hours he spent in hotels like the Algonquin in New York. These experiences gave him the expression which passes his face occasionally like a small dark cloud before the sun. It is found in his eyes, the tender-sad, glazed eyes of a wounded animal. Broun is making every effort to escape identification with his father. Notice how the moustache disguises the resemblance; and if his father was "an unmade bed" Broun is dapperly rakish, given to loud sportcoats. He is, nevertheless, primarily a sports writer and stylist, as his dad was. He writes with an intense scribble on backs of envelopes while hurrying by car to a filming assignment, pausing to enter a conversation with his own observation about an irreverent and bawdy sultan of the Sahara who tatooed the loins of his mistress in Sanscrit. We were watching the Stanley Cup Hockey series in Broun's motel room. He sat carelessly in a chair, stockinged feet on bed, sucking a corncob pipe. "Yes," he said, "the Algonquin set was powerful as you suggest. I remember Woolcott and Taylor and Parker had been to a play with Marc Connelly .......... Look at Esposito, the goalie, he gets down. That's his only flaw, he lurks too much." HE DRANK BOURBON from a silver flask emblazoned with a black camel and palm tree--something out of the Twenties, perhaps found in an antique shop. There is a simple humanity that attends this longing for the finer things. At the Owens apartment he insisted that the filming begin in the living room after Mrs. Owens had dotted drops to her baby's eyes. "I can go in the other room," she said. "No," he said, emphatically, "We will wait, Mrs. Owens, until you have finished." As Broun pointed to a foul on the ice, several seconds before it was acknowledged by an official, he was asked about the best advice he ever got. "It came from my father," he said. "He had once given me $10 and asked what I did with the money. I gave him an itemized accounting, something he did not seek. "Philosophic advice is no good, no man can tell another how to find love or happiness," he continued. "My father told me that money had no existence of its own. It is, he said, to spend. Oh, put a little aside but spend the rest." He kicked his feet to the rumpled bed again and coined more phrases with his own peculiar dramatic purchase. === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 25 of 52 (Posted AM 29 Jul '70 RPS) July 29, 1970 Dr. Sprinkle Editor, Virginian-Pilot Editor, Ledger-Star Gentlemen: At present there is a very dangerous situation from New York to Atlanta...poisonous air, atmospheric inversion.

Owens === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 26 of 52 WASHINGTON (AP) - America never had such a birthday party before. Superstars gave their talent. Common people and great people gave their prayers, songs, and cheers. Dissenters, claiming their heritage, clamored on the fringe, but the theme of unity clung through thunder, rain, tear gas, and a hail of stones. Bob Hope cracked jokes, keeping his pledge to keep Honor America Day off politics and on fun and country. Billy Graham preached the old-time religion and old-time ideals. President Nixon sent his greeting in the same mood. What America's founding fathers did 194 years ago when they declared this country independent, the President said, "is the greatest political achievement in the history of man and we are the beneficiaries of that achievement." Most of the mixed crowd at the nighttime gala cheered Hope and a host of other entertainers. A few threw pop bottles and litter, but no real harm was done. Scattered skirmishes between police and young war protesters throughout the afternoon failed to scare away a crowd for the Hope show estimated by various police sources from 250,000 to 400,000 on the Monument grounds, the largest rally ever held here, last fall's protest against the war. Tinges of tear gas still hung in the air, but the dissenters who continued to harass the festivities, though largely ignored, never numbered more than 100. "Let us all look back today so that we will be reminded of what great sacrifices have been made to make this the land of the free," Nixon said in a transcribed message sent from the Western White House at San Clemente, Calif. "Then let us turn once more to the future," Nixon added, "inspired by what this day means to us and to all of us that love freedom throughout the world." Hope cracked jokes about Vice President Spiro T. Agnew's golf and tennis but did not mention his politics. The closest thing to current politics was Jeannie C. Riley's singing of "When you're running down our country, you're talking on the fightin' side of me." She drew more cheers than boos. All in all, Honor America Day had been what its sponsors had hoped for - a return to an old-fashioned Fourth of July celebration. There was oratory of the old style, brass band music, fireworks, saluting cannon. And the enthusiasm of the new generation, including nude wading in the fountains. Graham preached to 35,000 at a morning rally and asked Americans to fulfill the dreams of their forefathers. "Their goal must be our goal and we must pursue it," Graham proclaimed. "Their vision (See America, Page A6) Flags and flag wavers get together at Lincoln Memorial. (AP) # Lightning Hits Gasoline Tank ## Norfolk Plant Imperiled, Homes Left, Ship Moved By ETHEL STEADMAN Virginian-Pilot Staff Writer NORFOLK - Lightning struck a huge gasoline storage tank at the Humble Oil & Refining Co.'s district plant on Hampton Boulevard Saturday, setting off a spectacular fire which threatened to spread to several adjacent tanks. The Coast Guard, Navy, and Civil Defense personnel aided Norfolk fire fighters in combatting the blaze, which raged unchecked for hours. Three hours after the tank blazed up, flames appeared to be a series of severe lightning flashes. Service station employees and a nearby trailer court fled their homes as giant fireballs rolled up and out of the tank. A commercial tanker moored only 300 yards from the tank also was imperiled until crewmen moved it out into the channel. The fire started around 7:30 p.m. almost simultaneously with a series of severe lightning flashes. A service station employee near the scene said. The man, who asked not to be identified, said he heard a noise similar to that produced when a transformer is hit by lightning. "There was a big explosion and it shook the ground," the man said. Moments later, he looked out and saw smoke boiling from one of the Humble tanks, the man added. By 11 p.m., the Coast Guard reported that there was a need for additional powdered foam by fire fighters. The foam, employed to smother blazes of this sort, was to be trucked to Norfolk from Elizabeth City, N.C., at last report, a Coast Guard spokesman said. Heavy rainfall drenched the area during the fire's height, but it appeared only to dampen the enthusiasm of spectators and not to douse the flames. As word of the fire spread, people lined up along Hampton Boulevard to watch the show. With the periodic downpours of rain, the sightseers straggled away. Winds whipped the flames sideways from time to time, forcing firemen to turn hoses on one another to keep their clothing from igniting. The Navy had at least two fireboats on the scene. The Coast Guard sent the cutters Mohegan, Point Brown, and Cherokee. No South Hampton Roads city owns a fireboat. By midnight, efforts were being directed at cooling down the adjacent storage tanks, each of which holds 30,000 barrels of high-octane fuel. The storage tank hit Saturday was of the floating-top type and was one of four nestled together inside a low dike to prevent gasoline spillage. In all, there are eight to 10 tanks in the immediate vicinity, by one estimate. The fireboats proved of little use in fighting the tank fire, as they were unable to get close enough to be effective, a fire spokesman said. They stood by in case the flames spread. Shortly after midnight, the Coast Guard reported that its Elizabeth City base was unable to supply powdered foam. Additional supplies of the foam were being borrowed from the Little Creek Naval Amphibious Base, the Naval Station, and the Newport News Fire Department, the Coast Guard said. Norfolk sent nine engines, two (See Bolt, Page A14) Virginian-Pilot Photo by Charles Meads Flames surge from the lightning-struck storage tank. # 5 Killed in Rioting # Belfast Guns, Bombs Seized BELFAST, Northern Ireland (AP) - British troops seized piles of hidden guns, bombs, and ammunition Saturday in the aftermath of rioting that killed five civilians. Military personnel took over the guard at two special courts trying 120 persons on riot charges. The latest disturbances came after the army seized an arms cache and a stone-and-bottle-throwing brawl erupted. Streets were littered with debris and deserted in the riot-scarred Falls Road quarter - a Roman Catholic enclave - as the army ordered a full emergency curfew and began house-to-house searches for the weapons used in rioting Friday night and early Saturday. The night of fighting, with fire bombs, grenades, and gunfire exploding in the streets, raised Northern Ireland's death toll from rioting to 12 in the last two weekends. Two of Friday night's victims were snipers killed by army sharpshooters and another was crushed by an armored car. At least another 80 persons were injured - 19 of them soldiers - and about 300 were arrested. To prevent further bloodshed, the government banned all processions throughout the province for three days, thus canceling Protestant Orange parades set for today outside Belfast. This new outburst in the ancient feud between Catholics and Protestants began after the imprisonment June 26 of Bernadette Devlin, the Catholic civil rights leader and member of Britain's Parliament. She was sentenced to a six-month term in connection with disorders in Londonderry last August. Troops barricaded roads into the town of Armagh and searched cars for arms. In the Catholic Falls Road district of Belfast where the rioting centered, troops ordered 1,500 residents out of their homes to nearby schools while the houses were searched. They turned up 45 pistols, 38 rifles, two submachine guns, 13 shotguns, 15,000 rounds of ammunition, 100 fire bombs, and 45 pounds of explosives. From inside the sealed-off district, nationalist member of Parliament Paddy Devlin declared that the area's Catholics now wanted the troops to stay to protect them against Protestants, who would be "infuriated" at the disclosure of arms caches. Devlin said the weapons had been brought into the district to protect it from Protestant attacks. **Today's Chuckle** Discretion is closing your mouth before somebody else does it for you. # In Today's Pilot **Inside Virginia Politics, Page A12** | | | | | |---|---|---|---| | Amusements | F4-5 | Gardening | G15 | | Ann Landers | G4 | Gov't Worker | B13 | | Books | C6 | Obituaries | B2 | | Bridge | H3 | Sports | E1-11 | | Business | E12-14 | Travel | B14 | | Classified | D1-14 | TV-Radio | F2-3 | | Crossword | F6 | Weather | A2 | | Dr. Thosteson | H3 | Wishing Well | H3 | | Editorials | C4 | Women | G1-16 | **Comics** **Parade** === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 27 of 52 Dr Sprinkle Postmark AM 23 Jul 70 RLS July 22, 1970 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: On June 16, 1970 (while the Norfolk area was in the midst of a months-long drought) Ted Owens handed me a written prediction...that he would bring about a large rainstorm within a week's time (to save the crops in this area, which were in danger of dying from drought); that he would bring a steady stream of rainstorms into this area, to keep it raining all summer; that he would try to bring a hurricane near enough to this area to cause heavy rainfall in this area; and that he would cause lightning attacks in this area, to prove that it was he causing all this. Since June 16, 1970...these things above have occurred; the first heavy rainstorm came within five days after Ted Owens handed me the written prediction, and there have been rainstorms once or twice a week since that time. The newspapers told that the crops have been saved. Hurricane Becky just came into life...and this week the Norfolk area is getting rain from the hurricane, days of it. There have been several tremendous lightning storms in the area...and on two different occasions huge oil tanks were struck by lightning, and blew up in flames. And there was one other thing: Ted Owens handed me a written prediction that he would put over this area an "other-dimensional grid" which would have the function of causing weird, unusual electromagnetic effects in the Norfolk area. Shortly after he gave me this written prediction, a "strange object in the sky" was reported by all of the local TV stations...which told of hundreds of people calling the police and fire department that they had seen a huge, multicolored "halo" up over the city in the night sky. I certify that the above is a true and accurate statement of fact. N. Dyer Mrs. N. Dyer Court Reporter Norfolk, Virginia === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 28 of 52 July 23, 1970..........TO ALL CONTACTS ---------- Multiple Miracle! I have, for the first time, actually brought about a multiple miracle... and needless to say, am tremendously excited about it. It is soundly documented...completely wrapped up. I had a court reporter/notary public keep my letter-predictions in exact chronological order, before each happening. I have also a dozen other responsible people who can testify to it all. Now, here is what happened: On June 16, 1970, an article appeared in the Ledger-Star newspaper in Norfolk that this area was in a terrible drought...flowers and shrubs were dying, and the crops were in danger of disaster! I immediately that date, sat down and sent letters to the editors of both newspapers, Mr. Maddry, columnist, Mrs. Dyer, court reporter, and others...that I would do the following: (1) Try to make it rain here substantially within one week from June 16. (2) Give the area a drenching, soaking and pouring down...more and more rain...not just one rainstorm, etc. (3) The rainstorms would be marked with my own personal trademark... heavy lightning attacks. (4) I'd try to bring up a hurricane from lower Florida to this Norfolk area, or near this area...and draw more rain from it to here. (5) I'd erect a grid, other-dimensional, over this area...and produce weird electromagnetic effects in Norfolk/Virginia Beach area. (This in ltr. a few days later; am just lumping them for you.) (1) Norfolk then had a crash-bang, knockdowndragout storm five days after my letter on June 16...the 21st. It was marked by a tremendous lightning display. (2) For the next five weeks...there was a rainstorm at least once a week, sometimes twice or more a week, and it hasn't stopped raining yet! (3) Lightning in these storms during these five weeks, on two separate occasions, struck oil tanks and blew them up...knocked out power and communications, and generally raised cain. (4) Yesterday Hurricane Becky threw its outer fringes of rainstorms up at the Norfolk area...and for several days, the TV weathermen say, we'll have rain from Becky here. (5) On June 29 in the evening all the TV stations began buzzing with excitement..."strange object in the sky" as announcers put it. Hundreds of people calling in to the police etc. A multi-colored "halo" had appeared over Norfolk. Next day in the paper was this heading: "Halo In Sky Puzzles Even Weather Bureau." It went on to explain...that there simply was no explanation from anybody, any official source, at all. They tried to fit it into any understandable explanation, but could not. It was simply a UFO. About a week later TV sets in the area went haywire and the words were put across the picture-screen: "This is not your set. It is due to atmospheric interference." This occurred several days in a row. So there you have it...Oh, and I almost forgot, the papers announced that the crops were saved...but, just think, the mind boggles...five simultaneous "miracles". Would be enough just to call the hurricane bringing up the rain, right? Then add to that I made lightning strike...add to that I made it crash-bang storm within a week, and weeks thereafter... add to that I created a weird EM effect over Norfolk...and the crops were saved...you see? I'll tell you now...I've accomplished some impossible things before...but this multiple miracle...tops them all, so far. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3141 CHS, Norfolk, Va.

(UPI)-- Thousands of tourists fled inland Tuesday ahead of Hurricane Becky, aiming 75-mile-per-hour winds for a strike this morning at the "Miracle Strip" beaches of the Florida panhandle. Several thousand persons were evacuated from Santa Rosa Island, parts of Destin, and other low-lying areas Tuesday night. Advance gales and heavy rains began lashing the Gulf Coast. Hurricane shelters were set up in Panama City, Fort Walton Beach, Destin, and other cities and towns along the 100-mile stretch of Gulf Coast threatened by Becky. Panama City Beach, an 18-mile stretch of white sand and tourist motels, was in the center of the area Becky was expected to strike around 9 a.m. today. "We've got about 50,000 tourists along the miracle strip now," a Chamber of Commerce spokesman said early Tuesday, "but most of them are bailing out for higher ground." There was a steady stream of traffic on U.S. 98--the main road through this beach area that draws thousands of summer tourists from Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi--but the Highway Patrol reported no serious traffic tieups. "People are buying bread, crackers, canned goods, flashlights and milk like crazy," said Zack Bronson, manager of a food store in Destin. At 10 p.m., Becky was centered about 160 miles south-southwest of Pensacola near latitude 28.0 north and longitude 86.6 west. It was expected to resume its northward movement about 8 to 10 m.p.h. Panhandle residents were told to expect 6 foot tides and up to 8 inches of rain that could cause local flooding of roads, streams, creeks and bayous.

We're talking, of course, about Ted Owens, one of your Norfolk neighbors whose space people have brought more raindrops falling on my head and yours than Burt Bacharach ever thought of. At least that's his story. Now breathe deeply. Your pulse okay?

Opening Saga, you will find Owens standing in a drawing like a great Colossus as Boeing 747s fall mysteriously from the sky and New York is thrown into a blackout and a number of other weird happenings unfold. The writer, Otto O. Binder, finds Owens more fascinating than Jeane Dixon in his ability to predict the future. # The Seer Who Sees Via His SIs We have written about Owens before. A Norfolk woman reported that he had predicted lightning would strike the Apollo 12 spacecraft. It did. During our last interview with this uncanny man, he predicted a power failure. We left his home, turned the ignition switch in the car, and found that the battery was dead. Coincidence? Owens a disarmingly intelligent fellow with the face of a small-town hardware dealer, claims that his ability to predict events and create storms is special knowledge funneled into his head from space people. He calls them SIs, short for space intelligences. What concerned us was the weather. About a month ago Owens began writing us predicting a lot of storms for the Norfolk-Virginia Beach area. We've been getting a few. So we drove out to discuss this with him. He was seated at a kitchen table in his walkup apartment, pulling on a cigar. "You remember that I predicted storms for this area," he said. "Well, it's happening. The SIs are at work. They've placed a kind of weather grid over this area." He tossed clippings from The Virginian-Pilot and the Ledger-Star in my direction. One concerned the lightning bolt that destroyed a Humble Oil tank in Norfolk a couple of weeks ago. Other clippings concerned the loss of revenue at the Boardwalk Art Show because of rain. There was one from the Pilot, dated June 22, 1970, with a banner headline: "Tidewater Storm Hits Buildings and Boats." We asked Owens how the SIs were bringing all this about. "They construct a weather grid inside my head. It's very difficult to describe," he noted. He was sketching now with a pencil, drawing the Atlantic coastline with little marks like weather bars pocking its surface in the Virginia Beach area. "The parts shift back and forth in the grid like in an automobile motor; they shift and slide," he confided. To put this weather pattern into motion, Owens said, the SIs have given him a special gift. "They have now given me special words to say to implement the weather." What are the words? His eyes rolled upward, horrified. "Oh, I can't repeat them. They wouldn't want me to do that," he said. He tossed over a copy of a letter written to the editor of the Ledger-Star. "Tell the girls to put up their bikinis and get out their umbrellas. Ha. Ha.," the letter warned. AND THERE WERE CLIPPINGS from The Miami Herald and a Philadelphia paper reporting unusual rain accompanying Owens' arrival in town. In The Herald, Owens was standing by the shoreline with arms upraised like a latter day swami, beckoning rain. Let us assume Mr. Owens, that the SIs are bringing our rain. What will it make it stop? "They want to make themselves real to us. They want documentation of what they are doing to this area with the weather." He paused. "You actually owe it to the local Chamber of Commerce to write about this," he added. In his files there is a letter written by a Philadelphia attorney who claims that Owens was challenged to make lightning strike a specified place--the bridge to Camden--and that lightning struck the bridge. We have no quarrel to make with a man bearing such credentials. Maybe it's the SIs who need their heads examined by a psychiatrist. === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 32 of 52 Gasoline Tank Fire Controlled 7/6/70 NORFOLK -- A lightning-set fire that consumed nearly 20,000 barrels of gasoline and melted the metal walls of a storage tank off north Hampton Boulevard was reported under control Sunday evening by the Fire Department. Firemen were still at the scene at midnight. The intense blaze started about 7:30 p.m. Saturday during a thunderstorm in which a lightning bolt struck the 48-foot-high tank at the district plant of the Humble Oil & Refining Co. Only moments before the fire started, the Humble tanker Esso San Francisco at the plant piers had suspended unloading operations because of the storm danger. Several persons on the pier saw the tank hit by the lightning. The ship was then moved from the pier. Firemen battled the blaze throughout the night and into Sunday evening in an effort to keep it from igniting other gasoline storage tanks nearby. The flames lit the sky by night and trailed a thick fog of black smoke in a southwesterly direction Sunday afternoon. Residents of a nearby trailer court left their homes Saturday night as huge fireballs leaped from the blazing tank. Spectators lined Hampton Boulevard, even in intermittent July 4 rain, to watch the brilliant flames. The spectators were still there Sunday although the intensity of the fire had abated somewhat. No firemen were reported injured during the blaze. Murray A. Roberts, regional operations (See Fire, Page A4) The tank blazes in a melted ruin amid other tanks filled with gasoline. Photo by Ben Pulliam === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 33 of 52 # Fire Under Control From Page 1 manager for Humble, said that the damage caused by the blaze would have to be estimated by professional assessors. The 55,000 barrel tank (42 gallons to a barrel) contained "just under 20,000 barrels" of Esso Plus gasoline Roberts said. The tank wall melted down to 18 feet from its original 48 feet. Firemen tried throughout the night to smother the blaze with foam, but without success. "The tremendous updraft from the heat carried the light foam up in the air," said Norfolk Fire Chief Lawrence B. Wilson. "About 8 a.m. we stopped the foaming effort because it just wasn't doing any good. Then we concentrated just on keeping the other exposures (tanks) cool." Wilson said fire fighters got a favorable break in controlling the blaze about 10 a.m. Sunday when the wind died down and shifted to the northeast, blowing the heat and flames away from the other storage tanks. During the darkness hours of Saturday night and Sunday morning the wind sometimes whipped the intense heat and flames sideways so that firemen had to douse one another's clothes and their equipment with water to keep them from igniting. Norfolk sent nine engine companies, two ladder trucks, and one salvage unit to the scene and kept 150 firemen working at the blaze in five and six-hour shifts. The Navy sent two crash trucks from the Norfolk Naval Air Station, a pumping engine from the Naval Station, two fire boats and a tug. The fireboats were later withdrawn. The Coast Guard sent the cutters Mochican, Point Brown, and Cherokee, but later reduced the standby to just the Cherokee. Civil Defense volunteers also aided the fight. Red Cross volunteers and women's auxiliary of the Fire Department served food to the fire fighters. Chesapeake and Virginia Beach fire departments and the Norfolk Naval Station Fire Department sent units to stand duty in Norfolk stations left unmanned because of the fire. === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 34 of 52 # Tides Rained Out 7/6/70 NORFOLK--Rain has claimed another Sunday on the Tide home schedule, the third in the last four as a matter of fact. The game with Rochester at Metropolitan Park was called before noon by Dave Rosenfield, the Tide general manager. "It rained last night and all morning. Even with the infield covered there was no way," Rosenfield said with more than a trace of sorrow. "We've had six Sundays at home and only one really good day, when our Kid's Day promotion drew 3,063. Two others were played in bad weather and three we have lost. We've drawn 82,000 people, almost 50,000 ahead of last year's pace, but with those three Sundays we'd be close to 90,000." The game, the last of a set of three with the Red Wings, will be made up as part of a doubleheader when Rochester returns Aug. 17-20. The Tides have a makeup doubleheader with Syracuse set Tuesday night and another in August with Louisville. On the road games must be made up at Rochester (Friday as part of a twinighter) and Winnipeg. Jesse Hudson (5-2), who was to have pitched Sunday, will now work Tuesday in the doubleheader with the league-leading Chiefs. Bill Denehy (3-1) probably will work the other game because Jon (See Sundays, Page B9) # is Battle; Bucs Win words and within moments, both dugouts emptied. No ejections were made and play was resumed after a few minutes. Hebner's third home run of the season, following a leadoff single by Matty Alou, was the 11th for the Pirates in the four-game series and 12th of the month, one more than they had in all of June. The Pirates, who've won 10 of the last 13, added an unearned run in the first on an error by Ron Santo and Gene Alley's run-scoring single and picked up two more in the fifth on singles by Alou and Roberto Clemente. | PITTSBURGH | | | | | CHICAGO | | | | | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | | ab | r | h | bi | | ab | r | h | bi | | MAlou cf | 5 | 2 | 3 | 0 | Kessinger ss | 4 | 1 | 2 | 0 | | Hebner 3b | 5 | 1 | 1 | 2 | Popovich 2b | 4 | 0 | 2 | 2 | | Clemente rf | 4 | 1 | 1 | 0 | BWilliams lf | 4 | 0 | 2 | 0 | | AOliver 1b | 3 | 0 | 0 | 1 | Hickman cf | 3 | 0 | 1 | 0 | | Stargell lf | 3 | 1 | 1 | 0 | WSmith 1b | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | Jeter lf | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Santo 3b | 4 | 0 | 1 | 0 | | Sanguilln c | 4 | 0 | 2 | 1 | Callison rf | 4 | 0 | 2 | 0 | | Alley ss | 4 | 0 | 1 | 1 | Hiatt c | 3 | 0 | 1 | 0 | | Mazroski 2b | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | CJames pr | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | | Ellis p | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Rudolph c | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | | | | | | Jenkins p | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | | | | | | Spangler ph | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | | | | | | Colborn p | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | | | | | | Martin ph | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | Total | 36 | 5 | 9 | 5 | Total | 35 | 2 | 10 | 2 | Pittsburgh .......... 3 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 -- 5 Chicago .......... 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 -- 2 E--Santo 3.

Gentlemen: I have just concluded putting on an absolutely air-tight demonstration, proof-wise, of my ability to communicate with UFO entities and bring about an effect. It could not conceivably be labeled a "coincidence" or anything else. As I say, it is as air-tight as a genuine scientific experiment could be, were it one, which of course it is not, since I am a layman. What would your reaction be...if you were the Editor of a very large newspaper...there was a local drought...crops were in danger of dying... and a man wrote in and said that he would deliberately make a storm for the area, within a week's time...and as proof that it was caused by him, the storm would be marked by a savage lightning attack? Then it follows...that in 5 days, on the 5th day thereafter...a devastating storm strikes this area, specified....it is marked by an absolutely savage lightning attack, lighting striking houses, striking powerlines and knocking out power in 10,000 homes...lightning striking a huge oil building and sending up a "fireball" when it explodes. And...the corn crop which was in great danger, is now "saved" according to the newspapers from the 4 inch rainfall ensuing from the storm. I'll tell you what the Editor's reaction was, here in Norfolk/Virginia Beach. Absolutely nothing. Not a word of it to the public. That is how completely my "miracles" are kept a secret. Following is a copy of my letter to the Editor of the Ledger-Star (4565 Virginia Beach Blvd., Virginia Beach, Virginia, Phone 625-1431) before, 5 days before, the storm struck: Dear Sir: Maddry and Bonko have both mentioned me previously in their columns. Tonight I read in your paper that this area is in a serious drought condition...that within two weeks the corn crop can be a disaster, as well as other crops, etc. Not much rain in months. All right. I was quite successful in Phila. in causing it to rain...and Maddry saw the articles in the papers on it. I notified the papers by letters, like this one...and then brought the rain in...and this during the 6-year drought then on at that time. I'm going to do this: (1) Try to make it rain her substantially within one week from now. (2) Try to keep it raining here in the Norfolk/ Virginia Beach area all the summer long. (3) Try to give this area such a drenching, soaking and pouring-down as to be almost beyond belief... the wettest summer on record here...more rain...etc. (4) It will be marked (the storms, that is) with my own personal trademark...heavy lightning attacks. (5) I will try to bring up a hurricane from lower Florida to this area, or near this area...and draw more rain from it to here. Am not writing you this letter...to get any publicity...but to let you know, when it happens, what caused it. Maddry was skeptical of my work, I'm afraid, and would like to give him a sort of demonstration." Am enclosing the newsclips showing the terrific scope of the storm, as well as the documention of confirmation from the court reporter, Mrs. Dyer, here in Rm. 401, Plaza One Bldg., Norfolk, Va., phone 625-5848. A cleaner, more powerful demonstration of my link with the Si's...you couldn't find. Ted Owens, (PK Man) === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 36 of 52 June 22, 1970, Monday TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN Last Tuesday, June 16, 1970, Mr. Ted Owens, known as "PK Man", gave me in writing a prediction that he would bring about, within one week's time, a substantial rainstorm. Furthermore, he additionally promised that the rainstorm would be marked by spectacular lightning display... which he terms his "trademark." The foundation for all of this...was an article which appeared in the Ledger-Star newspaper of Norfolk to the effect that there had been no rainfall for two months and that unless rainfall occurred...there would be a disaster for the crops in this area. Mr. Owens decided, he said, to save the crops for the farmers here. Yesterday, Sunday, June 21, 1970, there was a devastating storm in this Norfolk area...more than a half-inch of rain fell...winds of over 65 miles per hour...boats were grounded...roofs were blown off of buildings...cars were blown off roads...and lightning struck everywhere at houses, power lines, etc. Lightning in fact knocked out the power in various portions of Norfolk. Lightning also struck a huge oil tank and the resulting explosion sent up a "fireball". Therefore I do confirm herein that Mr. Owens' prediction last week was entirely accurate, and has come to pass within the one-week time limit that he imposed. I certify this to be a true and accurate statement of fact. NIKI DYER, Court Reporter Plaza One Building Norfolk, Virginia. # Rain Saves Tri-County Corn Crop 6/23/70 SUFFOLK -- Farm authorities said Monday that while Sunday's rain played favorites in the Tri-County area, it played an important part in saving the year's corn crop. Rainfall ranged from 1.5 inches in Isle of Wight County, to .4 inches in Holland, and to a low of .18 inches in Suffolk. Robert Goerger, assistant agricultural agent in Isle of Wight County, said the rain did "a lot of good. It saved the corn crop, for it was about gone." While Sunday's rain was a good start, Goerger added, "we'll need more to keep the corn going. We could use a couple more inches of a gentle rain." Weather recorders at the Tidewater Research Station in Holland said the 4-inch rainfall helped Nansemond County crops a little "but not a great deal." === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 37 of 52 LEDGER-STAR Monday afternoon, June 22, 1970 section B Lines, crane downed # Area cleaning up after 'quickie' squall By RICHARD C. BAYER Tidewater cleaned up today after a hit-and-run squall Sunday that swept across the area, disrupting power, playing havoc on the waterways and damaging waterfront property. The biggest cleanup operation was at the Portsmouth Marine Terminal where wind that gusted up to 58 miles per hour blew the boom of a giant cargo crane across a container ship. John T. Nix, executive director of the Portsmouth Port and Industrial Commission, said the boom fell on The Baltimore, owned by Sealand Lines, about 1:30 p.m. Sunday at the peak of the storm. Nix said, while waiting for the boom to be raised early today, that there were no injuries. Damage to the boom, he said, appeared extensive, but the ship, he added, did not appear to be badly damaged. The Weather Bureau had ample warning that a squall line was moving rapidly in from the west accompanied by wild thunderstorms. It mounted a severe thunderstorm watch at 8:55 a.m. Sunday and shortly thereafter began issuing small craft warnings. Despite these warnings, there were many small boats in Hampton Roads and on Chesapeake Bay when the storm rolled in about 1 p.m. The Weather Bureau at Norfolk Regional Airport said the temperature dropped from 95 to 73 in about an hour while heavy winds buffeted the area. The peak of the storm, the bureau said, was about 1:38 p.m., but scattered thunderstorms were reported in the area as late as 3:43 p.m. The Coast Guard received dozens of calls and had virtually every piece of rescue equipment in action. There was one possible death. A man identified by the Coast Guard as Leon Hodge, 35, of Hampton was reportedly washed off a sailboat in the bay four miles north of the Thimble Shoals light. The Coast Guard said a 40-foot boat, aircraft and the cutter Point Huron searched for Hodge several hours before suspending the search after nightfall. About 1:30 p.m. Sunday one of the Coast Guard's own, the cutter Sebago, went aground on Willoughby Shoals about three quarters of a mile southwest of the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel. A Coast Guard spokesman in Portsmouth said a hawser became entangled in the cutter's propeller and divers were sent over the side before Navy tugs pulled the cutter free at high tide. The Virginia Power and Electric Co. said some 10,000 Tidewater homes were without power for varying periods of time because of the storm. A power company spokesman said crews were still out today restoring service to a few homes in outlying areas. Trouble calls began pouring in at 1:30 p.m. Sunday and most service was restored by 11 p.m., the VEPCO spokesman said. The heavy wind peeled part of the roofing from atop the Quality Courts Motel, which sits at the end of Willoughby Spit between Willoughby Bay and Chesapeake Bay. Mrs. Mary Griffith, a desk clerk at the motel, said: "I told my husband it looked like a tornado. There was so much noise because of the wind. You couldn't believe it." John C. McCaw, the motel's manager, was surveying the damage today. He said water came through the roof and damaged about 60 rooms on two levels. The motel has 120 rooms. Firemen were able to extinguish a gasoline storage tank fire caused by lightning in Chesapeake. No one was injured in the fire, which burned for more than an hour. The storm also blew out 145 feet of freshly erected cinder block in the north walls of the new Rena B. Wright school in Chesapeake. The wall was 12 feet high and was ready to receive steel joists. === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 38 of 52 JUMBLE Unscramble these four Jumbles, one letter to each square, to form four ordinary words. DYPUC LUSKK # Storm Knocks Out Electricity to Some **From Page 1** of Virginia Beach, rescued two men who were floating on life cushions after their 19-foot outboard overturned near the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. Billy T. Cooper, a passenger on Loziato's boat, estimated the seas at 10 to 15 feet and winds at 60 to 65 m.p.h. They rode out the storm, which lasted nearly an hour, northeast of the Bridge-Tunnel's fourth island. The Coast Guard cutters reported making numerous rescues, including a father and son in Chesapeake Bay. Hardest hit by the storm was the Quality Courts Motel in the 1500 block of West Ocean View Avenue. The winds knocked half the roof off the 120-room motel. John C. McCaw, motel manager, estimated the damage to the roof and furniture in the rooms at about $100,000. Although about 30 of the rooms were occupied, he said, no one was injured. He said the motel will remain open while repairs are made to the roof. The Weather Bureau said the storm was caused by a squall line ahead of a low-pressure area moving west to east. The high winds were not unexpected as a severe thunderstorm watch had been in affect from 8:55 a.m. and a tornado watch from 1:15 p.m. Both were lifted at 6 p.m. Wing gusts up to 80 m.p.h. whipped Blackstone in eastern Virginia and small hail was reported near Raleigh-Durham, N.C. The tornado watch was issued for portions of the Carolinas as well as southeast Virginia. Scattered damage was caused by the storm as the winds felled trees and knocked limbs across power lines. Power was lost for more than seven hours in scattered parts of Norfolk, said J. T. Mason, Virginia Electric Power Co.'s district superintendent. He said that more than 10,000 homes in Norfolk, Portsmouth, Virginia Beach, and Chesapeake were without power during the storm. The storm also damaged power lines throughout Suffolk and the Tri-County Area, leaving hundreds of homes without electricity for several hours. Vepco crews were kept busy until late Sunday night clearing limbs from high-voltage lines and repairing downed lines. In Virginia Beach, the most serious problem was a massive traffic jam on Shore Drive at Pleasure House Road and at Northampton Boulevard created by a power failure in the Bayside area of the city. At one time, westbound traffic on Shore drive was backed up, bumper to bumper in two lanes, for more than three miles from the intersection at Pleasure House Road. Thousands of people on the beach at Sandbridge, south to the North Carolina state line, were warned of the storm by city police to clear the beaches. Lt. Carl Weast of the 1st Precinct said some paid no attention to the warnings and "wished they had," but no problems were reported. A report that two people were aboard an airfloat being blown to sea off the beach at 53rd Street was apparently false, a spokesman for the Fire Department said. The search was called off about 30 minutes after it began. During the peak of the storm, many small boats sought safety inside the Lynnhaven and Rudee inlets, and one sailboat that overturned was finally brought ashore at Chesapeake Beach without injury to its occupants, police said. In the South Norfolk section of Chesapeake, a wall of the new Rena B. Wright Elementary School collapsed. Officials at the school, under construction at Park Avenue and Perry Street, were unable to estimate damage or say how much delay can be expected in completion of the building. State Trooper E. H. Davis Jr. said an automobile on U.S. 58-460 seven miles east of Suffolk was blown off the highway and hit a tree. The victims were identified as Mrs. Phyllis Crumble, of the 100 block of Ackiss Avenue, Virginia Beach, and her two sons, James, 5, and Darrell, 4. Mrs. Crumble and James were treated and released and Darrell was admitted to Maryview Hospital for a possible head injury. A home on U.S. 460 north of Suffolk was heavily damaged with it was apparently struck by lightning, firemen said. === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 39 of 52 Virginian-Pilot Photos by Dick Bushnell and Bill Randolph # Wind Victims Children inspect what would have been a wall of the new Rena B.

Witnesses said flames roared skyward in a fireball visible for miles about 2:25 a.m. when lightning struck a 30,000-barrel Texaco tank near Bank and Mauden streets, South Hill. Acting Fire Chief D. S. Keay said the flames died suddenly about 3:30 a.m. while two huge streams of water cooled the tank. Two Navy foam trucks arrived as the flames died. No one was hurt by the blaze. Fire fighters admitted they were concerned, especially after reports of fatalities in an oil fire in a Franklin, Pa., storage area Friday and Saturday. The lightning and fire ruptured the tank top. Fire fighters said the tank was about half full and no flaming liquid reached the ground. Two deluge water guns, one atop an aerial ladder, continued to pour water on the tank until about 6 a.m. when Texaco officials said the tank's internal temperature was back to a normal 73 degrees. Many residents reported seeing the fireball erupt during the lightning-punctuated storm. Scott Sherman, occupant of a home less than 100 yards from the tank, said he saw the lightning hit. Photo by Clinton Hirdlinger Flames erupt from burning storage tank. "I saw so much light," he said, "and I thought the house was on fire." Sherman said a three-pronged bolt hit, and fire erupted from the top rear of the tank. Sherman said he and his wife ran from the house into the rain. Moments earlier he had closed windows as the rain began. Acting Battalion Chief James Doughtie said the strategy used to fight the fire involved handheld lines to cool the fire as soon as the first four pumpers arrived. Four 2 1/2-inch lines were attached to an unmanned deluge gun and fire fighters retreated to a safer distance to await foam units from Norfolk Naval Base and Air Station. A Norfolk aerial ladder, called when Chesapeake's ladder failed to operate, projected a second large stream atop the tank from Bank Street. Elizabeth City, N.C., five cutters, and four utility boats searched the James River, Chesapeake Bay and Virginia Beach and North Carolina coasts. === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 40 of 52 Clearing High Today 85 Low Tonight 63 N, 10-20 m.p.h.

Virginian-Pilot Photos by Bill Randolph # Tidewater Storm Hits Buildings and Boats By DON HUNT Virginian-Pilot Staff Writer Winds gusting to 58 miles per hour in the midst of a severe thunderstorm Sunday afternoon quickly cooled off one of the hottest days of the year. The high winds apparently forced the Coast Guard cutter Sebago to go aground in Sewells Point Spit, knocked half the roof off an Ocean View motel in Norfolk, left more than 21,000 homes without electricity for several hours, and capsized numerous small boats. The 5th Coast Guard District headquarters in Portsmouth received more than 65 distress calls during the storm, and a Coast Guard spokesman said that one man apparently drowned. Leon Hodge, 35, believed to be from Hampton, was washed off the sailboat Totem II, near Buckroe Beach. He had not been found when a search was called off at dusk. A high of 95 was recorded at 1 p.m. The mercury dropped to 73 shortly after 2 p.m., during the peak of the storm. The Weather Bureau said about half an inch of rain fell during the storm. A Coast Guard spokesman said the Sebago, a Pensacola, Fla.-based cutter, went aground at 1:30 p.m. about three-fourths of a mile southwest of Ft. Wool. The 255-foot former gunboat was freed at high tide about 8:30 p.m. Three Navy tugboats were unable to free the cutter Sunday afternoon. The cutter, en route to Pensacola from Curtis Bay, Md., was headed to a Hampton Roads anchorage to load explosives, the spokesman said. Many pleasure boats, from small outboards to luxury sport fishermen, were caught in the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean by the blow. The Coast Guard reported picking up boaters throughout the area. Other rescues were reported by private boats. A Coast Guard airplane from Elizabeth City, N.C., five cutters, and four utility boats searched the James River, Chesapeake Bay and Virginia Beach and North Carolina coasts.

Through the past few years you've seen me write in advance...that I would cause this major power blackout, produce multiple hurricanes for the season, end the drought on the East Coast, end the killer-drought in India...and so on and on and on. Now, at long last, two top scientists have checked me out, my work out...and I have letters from them stating that they are willing to be one of my regular Contacts and observe this continuing "PK"/Si phenomena as it occurs. I deeply regret that they were not in on all the earlier miracles...but, better late than never, as the saying goes. They will now watch, objectively...not disbelieving, not believing...but being the top scientists that they are, in the U.S., constantly observing what the Si's are doing to prove their (Si) reality and their communication with me as their human observer. These two scientists are: Dr. Leo Sprinkle University of Wyoming Dr. J. Allen Hynek Northwestern University It is entirely possible...that with these two eminent gentlemen coming into this action as observers...that in the near time ahead...we may be communicating with the Si's face to face, somehow, somewhere. Which, of course, has been my goal all along. (2) On June 16, 1970, an article appeared in the Ledger-Star newspaper here...to the effect that this area is in a terrible drought. Naturally, seeing this, I contacted the Si's, and they gave the go-ahead. (Remember the chain of storms I made in Phila. and it was confirmed in the newspaper story there? As well as other places; Miami, Florida, more recently.) So I gave Mrs. Niki Dyer, a court-reporter in this office, a document stating (1) I would make it rain substantially here in this area within one week from 6/16; (2) I would keep it raining here in this area all the summer long; (3) I would give this area such a soaking as to be almost beyond belief; (4) It would all be marked, the storms, with my own personal trademark...heavy lightning attacks; (5) I will try to bring a hurricane up from lower Florida this season...to shed more rain on this area. Now: I also sent this notice to the Editor of the Ledger-Star. Since that time...this area has had two night-storms, and today a rocking-socking rainstorm accompanied by spectacular lightning! I want to quote you from that news article: "Let's see, the last time it rained was uhhh...June 6. But that was hardly worth remembering... only .28 inches. June 5 was worse. Only .01 inch fell - not enough to justify even one bar of "Singing in the Rain." The dry weather is having a serious effect on area crops lawns and shrubbery. If it (corn) receives no meaningful rainfall within two weeks, the corn crop will be a disaster."..... Well, Contacts, I've helped that situation already, within the week, as I specified in writing. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134, CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. If you think it is easy to bring this about...consider that the various elements of weather combinations along the eastern seaboard and elsewhere must be put together like a jig-saw puzzle to bring about this desired effect! === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 42 of 52 June 13, 1970..........TO ALL CONTACTS Dr Sprinkle The Si's have just successfully completed another "miracle", which I have dutifully reported, for them and from them, to you. As you know, I sent you, some time ago, a message from the Si's...saying that they would give a world-wide demonstration of violent, savage weather phenomena...earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tornados, hurricanes and so on. This has come about in dramatic fashion...Worst avalanches in 30 years in Europe; worst floods in history in Roumania and Germany; worst tornado to ever hit Texas (clobbered Lubbock recently); worst earthquake in 20 years to strike Peru (last week); and the list goes on and on, long long list... since I sent you that letter. Now...also in that letter I told you that the Si's would appear and be reported in the newspapers...as their "signature" to the reality of the whole situation, of them, and their link with me. This morning this "signature" appeared in the newspaper here in Norfolk, The Virginian Pilot, as follows: "RA 2 CREW SIGHTS UFO IN ATLANTIC. Clearwater, Fla. (UPI)---A radio message Friday from explorer Thor Heyerdahl's papyrus boat Ra 2 said crewmen sighted an unidentified flying object (UFO) on their voyage across the Atlantic Ocean toward Mexico. The message, by shortwave radio from navigator Norman Baker, said the UFO moved across the horizon for several minutes and disappeared in "a bright orange flash." The North American Air Defense Command, headquartered at Colorado Springs, Colorado, doubted that the UFO could have been connected with any space shot. An officer at NORAD suggested, "It might have been a meteor." Baker said the sighting was made Thursday morning as the Ra 2 made good headway in a voyage that started last month from the Moroccan port of Safi. Heyerdahl is trying to prove that ancient Egyptians could have used papyrus boats to bring their culture to the Western Hemisphere centuries before Columbus landed. At last report, Ra 2 was 750 miles west of the African coast in the mid-Atlantic. One member of the crew, Ait Madani, spotted the UFO as he was at the helm of the Ra 2." I am very excited about this...it has been a beautiful, perfectly executed demonstration by the Si's, for you. Now I believe, I hope, they will stop the earthquakes and other savage destructive weather phenomena...I asked them to last week, when Peru was devastated. They produced the weather phenomena and "signed" the demonstration with this nationally-reported UPI newspaper write-up of their dramatic appearance to the Ra 2. Perhaps it is the end of the demonstration. I hope so. But...I don't know for sure, either. At any rate they've told you, as plainly as can be, that they are responsible for the world-wide floods, quakes, etc., that have taken place. THIS HAS ENORMOUS IMPLICATIONS, as is quite obvious to you. Now, I'd like a confirmation on this, if any of you would care to give me one, for my files. Because remember...it is only by this means that I have been able to prove my link with the Si's this far.; It is vital to my work. So...any volunteers? (Of course the new "members" of the Contacts will not have this letter I sent which set up the world-wide weather demonstration followed by the Si "signature," so they couldn't confirm anything if they wanted to.) === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 43 of 52 Now, since some of you are new members of my Contact group (and I must apologize for using that term to Brinsley in London, since my contacts are a relative handful of people and Brinsley's CONTACT is a world-wide organization...but how else to put it?) so at this point I'll fill you in on what the Si's (UFO intelligences) are doing. Because a friend in London asked me to have the Si's demonstrate in England, currently...I have contacted "Control" (top Si intelligence) and requested that the Si's (1) appear over England in numbers, (2) cause weather aberrations around the area of England, and (3) cause the wide appearance of "ghosts" and "poltergeists" in the area of England. I specified for a time-frame the month of June. Of course, I do not know whether they will comply or not. They do not like other humans to suggest experiments...practically all of the "miracles" I've demonstrated through the Si's have been thought up by the Si's and dictated to me...by the Si's. But...I'm trying, with this. And let me explain another problem: the Si's have a different "time" than our time. They have to work from their dimension into our dimension through "time windows". I.e., instead of the above phenomena happening in June...it could take place in July or August. This has occurred before. The phenomena does in fact occur...but out of the time-frame I try to force it into. A friend in New York and a friend in New Jersey...have requested I ask the Si's to appear and thus create more interest in UFO's than is currently being shown by the layman on the street. I have taken this request to "Control" who has promised me that they will appear (as they just have) and be written up in newspapers and mags, to stir up more interest in them. The Si's had promised my Contacts "an earthquake summer"...i.e., violent, savage weather phenomena around the world...to continue through the summer into the fall season. Peru was the latest country to be struck. And day before yesterday 12 towns in Oklahoma, I believe it was, were chewed up by tornados. These are the most recent events. I have a hunch the Si's will strike our east or west coast with a big earthquake during the summer; and I have sound reasons behind that hunch. The Si's some time ago...stated they would harass the Pan-Am (and now other airlines) Jumbo Jet 747's. They have done so very much; their latest actions being the Pan-Am 747 that went off the runway at NY last week; and the shooting on board the Pan-Am 747 last week. You can watch this harassment with interest, knowing it is Si-caused. This coming fall...the Si's are going to "PK" all football stadiums where pro football teams will play...which will cause freak accidents and injuries...and have the effect of causing pro football teams to be regular traveling hospital wards. After the appearance...of some articles coming out in July and August about them...the Si's will reward humans for it...(because it is of the utmost importance to them to have their work known around the world)...by not touching or interfering with the next Apollo shot (they certainly "touched and interfered" with the last two Apollo shots!) === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 44 of 52 3 The Si's are going to cause something strange and unusual...to happen in the Washington, D.C. area, as you know from a recent communication from me; and they are going to "spank" the Miami, Florida area in some way, for reasons of their own. I believe that's the extent, right now...of what they are working on, and reporting to you through me. Before I forget it...let me explain an interesting point. The term "SI" as you know...stands for Space Intelligence, or "Saucer" Intelligence, if you will. However, just recently...the Si's have added to my education from them...by adding sound to the symbols which they've given me to use with them for purposes of communication. This for the first time...and I've been communicating with them for five years now just with symbols. So they've just taught me how to combine sound with the symbols. All right. So now I'm using Sound and Images, right? Which also, if you put that together, comes to "SI". Interesting coincidence. Why the sound with the mental images I use? The best I can explain, from the little explanation they've given me...is that the sound acts as a carrier of the image, giving the mental image more force and carries it truer...they gave me the example of my throwing a light knife (remember I'm a pro knife-thrower) which can wobble and waver in flight and drop off-target. But by adding an amount of tape to the handle...enough weight is given to the knife to throw it hard and true. And so it is with the different and varied sounds they give me to go along with the mental images I'm supposed to use in various assignments they give me. That's it for now. I won't be able to write you very often, because of no postage and no money and very little time to write. But I'll try to keep you abreast of the Si's actions as often as I can, because it is of prime importance to them, and to you, that I do so. For those of you who are new, and might be puzzled by some of the things written herein...get Otto Binder's excellently-written articles re the Si's coming out in SAGA Magazine on the stands in July and August.

And documented in advance in writing. Well, well. I reckon then that some more demonstrations will have to be made. I am setting up an unusual apparatus to cover this area... from the Si's (UFO's) tool-kit of ODE forces and effects (ODE is other-dimensional...which is where the Si's originate... from another dimension). This mechanism will have the effect of highly-charging the Norfolk/Virginia Beach, etc. (Tidewater area) with magnetic and electro-magnetic force. An ODE "grid" has been placed over this area, and is now in operation. The grid acts just like the gimmick that charges a car battery....and this will also draw water from the nearby ocean to this area, besides drawing lightning to this area... So, in the near future things will get lively here. All sorts of weird unusual magnetic and electro-magnetic effects. Lots of lightning...could be even on nice days in the daytime... lots of electrical storms. And so on. I've done this before, using the Si power, and it was fantastic...the results....over the area it was used on. Watch, and see.

STEADMAN Virginian-Pilot Staff Writer A storm punctuated by severe lightning dumped more than 2 1/2 inches of rain on Tidewater Thursday. Better than an inch of precipitation was recorded at Norfolk Regional Airport between 6 and 7 p.m., the Weather Bureau reported. Thunderstorms covered 75 per cent of the state Thursday, according to the Weather Bureau. This was unusual, even if not phenomenal. Two men from the Tidewater area were the object of a Coast Guard search in the Atlantic off Cape Hatteras Thursday night after their 18-foot outboard was reported overdue about 7 p.m. Air surveillance will resume today at first light. A spokesman at 5th District headquarters in Portsmouth said the outboard departed Hatteras about 7:30 a.m. Thursday, and was expected to return well before night. Seas were rough and winds of 25 knots, gusting higher, were reported off the cape during the afternoon, the Coast Guard said. A Coast Guard plane and 44-foot cutter probed the ocean for the tiny boat until high winds and poor visibility forced them to suspend operations about 11 p.m. The men were not identified. The intensity of the rainfall flooded streets and low-lying sections, creating instant lakes and headaches throughout the four South Hampton Roads cities. A mudslide inundated the eastbound lanes of Granby Street at Taussing Boulevard, where the rain washed out dirt from the Inter-state 64 overpass under construction, Norfolk police said. Street crews were scraping away the muck, which some reports said was 6 feet deep, late Thursday. Residents of a three-story brick apartment house in the 900 block of Brandon Avenue, Norfolk, were told by firemen to evacuate the building after an accumulation of water caused the roof to collapse. Water seeped through to the ground floor and presented a potential hazard in combination with the electrical system, the residents were informed. Lightning set off a multitude of small fires in Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesapeake, and Virginia Beach. Authorities said none of the fires was extensive. A freak bolt of lightning caused damage in three widely separate spots at the home of Hubert Bass on Pefley Drive in Norfolk. Bass said the bolt knocked a hole through a garage wall at one end of the five-bedroom brick house, damaged another wall at the opposite end, and shattered a low brick wall he had been building around a tree about 6 feet away from the house. In Virginia Beach, fire officials reported that lightning hit the Lakeville Estates apartments at Indian River Road near Military Highway and struck several residences. Power failures were widespread, mostly the result of lightning striking transformers, authorities reported. Norfolk police reported heavy flooding at all underpasses. The water was 4 1/2 feet deep in places, they said. The deluge left eight automobiles stranded in the underpass on Tidewater Drive at Virginia Beach Boulevard and water was over the top of car wheels on Tidewater Drive around the 2nd Precinct, police said. Virginian-Pilot Photo by Neal V. Clark Jr. Brambleton Avenue becomes a running river between Tidewater Drive and Chapel Street. All right. So far, so good.

A definite cause for the astral light was not assigned but United Press International reported that, "The Navy's Poseidon roared into the night from Cape Kennedy at 9:31 p.m. in the 20th test of the new weapons system Monday. The Bureau said cirrus clouds at 30,000 feet would normally reflect a light into a halo effect. But the bureau spokesman knew of no light, such as the moon, specifically situated Monday night. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's rocket installation at Wallops Island reported no firings Monday. 6/30/70 June 30, 1970 Dr. Sprinkle Editor, Virginian-Pilot Newspaper Editor, Ledger-Star Newspaper Guy Friddell George Maddry Joseph Dyer, Court Reporter I direct your attention to my letter to you of June 24, 1970. In this letter...I told you that I was employing an effect from another dimension...an unusual apparatus to cover this area with a "grid"...and I said: "So, in the near future things will get lively here. All sorts of weird and unusual magnetic and electro-magnetic effects...." All right. So last night I was watching the 11 o'clock news and the announcer said "Strange object seen in the sky..." and covered all three stations on the subject...hundreds of people had phoned in to the police that they'd seen a mushroom cloud which changed into a giant multi-colored object over the Chesapeake area of Norfolk (where I live, incidentally)...and the different announcers were all trying to guess what it could be, and said frankly that nobody knew what it was. They'd contacted Wallops Island, but nothing was being done there. They all carefully and cautiously and painfully endeavored to not say the word "UFO". But one man, of them all, was at least honest: "There was a time," he said, "when I didn't believe in THOSE THINGS, but then I saw one, and now I'm a believer." In the paper this morning there was just a small blurb...and it tried to give it the old "marsh gas" treatment. No mention of a "UFO". They called it a "halo". I just looked at the Ledger-Star and they don't even mention it. At least I could find no mention of it. So...in the space of two weeks I called in my UFO's to give this area a flood of rain and storm...and they did, certainly did. Then a genuine UFO appears over Norfolk last night.

Dyer, Court Reporter I direct your attention to my letter to you of June 24, 1970. In this letter...I told you that I was employing an effect from another dimension...an unusual apparatus to cover this area...a "grid"...and I said: "So, in the near future things will get lively here. All sorts of weird and unusual magnetic and electro-magnetic effects...." All right. So last night I was watching the 11 o'clock news and the announcer said "Strange object seen in the sky..." I covered all three stations on the subject...hundreds of people had phone in to the police that they'd seen a mushroom cloud which changed into a giant multi-colored circle over the Chesapeake area of Norfolk (where I live, incidentally)...and the different announcers were all trying to guess what it could be, and said frankly that nobody knew what it was. They'd contacted Wallops Island, but nothing was being done there. They all carefully and cautiously and painfully endeavored to not say the word "UFO". But one man, of them all, was at least honest: "There was a time," he said, "when I didn't believe in THOSE THINGS, but then I saw one, and now I'm a believer." In the paper this morning there was just a small blurb...and it tried to give it the old "marsh gas" treatment. No mention of a "UFO". They called it a "halo". I just looked at the Ledger-Star and they don't even mention it. At least I could find no mention of it. So...in the space of two weeks I called in my UFO's to give this area a flood of rain and storm...and they did, certainly did. Then a genuine UFO appears over Norfolk last night. If that all doesn't fit into the "lively" pattern, I don't know what would. But Ill say one thing. The radio and press and TV here...do a marvelous job...of covering up. But it is going to be increasingly harder to do...as the UFO's I'm connected with...get livelier here. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens === **Filename: 7007.pdf** === Page 51 of 52 Halo in sky puzzles even weather bureau Dr. Sprinkle NORFOLK -- What caused the halo in the sky last night? Presumably light reflected off circus clouds which were made up of ice particles. The clouds were at 30,000 feet. What was the source of the light? The Norfolk Weather Bureau could not say today. Willie Pegram of 4 Lawrence Circle, Portsmouth, said he observed the halo at 9:20 p.m. from a position near the Elizabeth Manor Golf and Country Club. The halo was south to southwest from that position Pegram said, and as it enlarged it became fainter. Miss Jean Chapman of the weather bureau said that the moon reflecting off cirrus clouds can cause the phenomenon, but the moon did not rise last night until after midnight. Miss Chapman checked with the Richmond and Hatteras, N.C. weather stations and the halo was not reported seen by either. However, an unidentified caller reported seeing the halo at Hatteras, Miss Chapman said. She said Hatteras advised that Cape Kennedy reported that reflected light from a high altitude research rocket fired there was visible as far north as South Carolina. The rocket was fired at 9:31 p.m. With Pegram seeing the halo at 9:20 p.m. the firing and the halo appear unrelated. Persons in Norfolk and Virginia Beach reported seeing the light between 9:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. ter clipping that I found in tonight's to the letter-copy I sent you from s of Norfolk on June 24. sely, you will see that by now...I this past week here, in advance in called this phenomena which occurred hich puzzles everyone including the ance in writing...re my "grid" which cro-magnetic effects, other-dimensional.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 1** July 4, 1970 Postmark July 7, 1970 RLS Drs. Hynek and Sprinkle... this letter, as the others, requires no answer. Matter of fact I wasn't even going to write it...but Si's prodded me to do so. You see, being part Si myself...sometimes I catch indications and "shadows" of their thoughts and plans. Lately I caught some interesting information from the "shadow areas", and am passing it along. The Si's and OI's are enemies. But they do not fight and kill each other as we do. They fight each other with ideas. HMM Mental Imagery is one of their key weapons. For instance, us humans...to the OI's (Other Intelligences, not the Si's)...us humans are like roaches or rodents fouling their garden (the earth). To the Si's we are a most valuable animal species which they are studying and trying to perfect, through the ages. The OI's try to get rid of us...the Si's try to help us and perfect us. It was the OI's who "planted" the idea for nuclear and atomic warfare in the human brain, which then came into fruition. They then speeded up our technological abilities, knowing full well they were implanting ideas into our human brains faster than our human souls and human psychologies could absorb them...they were, in effect, building a time-bomb into the human race. The OI's have done such a good job...of helping us eliminate ourselves... that the Si's have been desperate enough to actually request a base on earth, in the U.S., for purposes of trying to avert the nuclear holocaust they know is on its way. Are you familiar with...if the right note is struck, it can break a glass vessel? Are you familiar with the mysterious number of deaths of hillbilly singers threse past ten years? Dozens of them killed in a weird, mystifying number of ways? It's true, if you'll check. Well, their own music killed them. Their wailing, sad, crying music...created conditions around them to destroy them. Mass music can accomplish that, say the Si's. They say the OI's deliberately implanted the "rock" and "go-go" music now sweeping the country...and this music, mass music, creates destructive conditions on a far greater scale even than hillbilly music. Instead of one note breaking a glass...multiply that same note by a million, and what do you get? You see? The Si's say that music is not just sound that fades away quickly...but it actually causes conditions around it. They say this music will wreck this country in this manner faster than a previous-type war could. One by-product of this rock music is to use dope...which is what the OI's want...because while the rock listener is on dope, the OI's can somehow insert their intelligence and plant powerful suggestions into the mind and soul of the one on dope, which will then effect humans around that dope person later...effect, and infect. Yes, mass music can cause mass vibrations, which will effect humans en masse, say the Si's. Something to think about. Of course, what I am saying here is nothing of my usual work...no documented material. Just file it. But...you might think about it.

Since you live, I suppose, in Evanston, and are a scientist at Northwestern University...this gives us, you and me, an excellent opportunity for a full-blown experiment utilizing not only my own PK powers...but SI powers as well. When the Jets played the All-Stars last year...I used PK on the game to beat the world champions...and almost did. Game ended 27-29, or something like that. The All Stars came from way behind...and given just a few more minutes, with my PK, would have beaten Namath and the Jets. (You have to understand that I do not win each and every game with my PK powers...I take a certain team and pursue it through the season...and tell the coach of that pro team in advance of the season that he will not be able to win the World Championship, because my PK will block the team. Last year I told Weeb Eubank before the season, coach of the Jets; also the Eagles; and the Miami Dolphins, who had a poor chance, but they told me they had a good chance, so I made sure they didn't. So this year I'll pursue the Kansas City Chiefs...World Champions...with my PK...to block them from winning the Championship. And I'll start with their first game against the All-Stars on July 31 at the stadium at Northwestern. Now, here is what I'll do: Am going to set up an EM grid (electromagnetic grid) over the stadium that night. It will be an ODE grid (other-dimensional, unseen) but it should have powerful effect on the stadium, and on the people in the stadium, since individuals have EM fields of their own. It could effect the power at the stadium, radios, TV broadcasting, etc. Then...I'll personally, using my brain, attack the KC Chiefs on every play...which can cause weird things to happen. Unusual fumbles; unusual breaks in favor of the All Stars. And injuries, because the PK works in a thousand ways...and of course to injure key players would be basic in stopping the Chiefs. Then...I'll go further. I will signal the UFO intelligences that I want them to send one or more craft near or over the stadium, to insert their own phenomena into the game. (They can be invisible, other-dimensional, so they probably will not be seen.) So, all in all, it should be a wild, unusual game...and I'll do my utmost to help the All Stars win it. But if they do not, at least I hope to be able to show you a wide range of phenomena during the game directly attributable to the SI's...and my own brain. As I said...I do not depend on one single game to stop a World Championship team from repeating...but will use the All Stars as a hammer against the Chiefs...in this game. But I will do my best to make the Chiefs lose the game. IT IS INFINITELY BETTER IF I CAN BE AT THE GAME MYSELF. As it is, I have to do my work over TV, watching the game that way. But...I have no money to fly to Evanston, stay overnight, and pay my way into the game. Am a financially poor man. It should be fascinating...and am delighted to be able to set up an experiment which you can observe yourself. As you know...am doing wonderfully here in Norfolk right now...bringing in storm after storm, with lightning attacks. There's no question about it. Best...

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 2** July 12, 1970 Dr. Hynek Dr. Sprinkle Gentlemen: Something startling and new has occurred...in my relationship with the UFO intelligences (Si's) and I thought I should relay it on to you. For years...in causing storms and lightning-attacks on areas...the Si's have had me extend my fingers toward the sky and "see" in my mind bolts of lightning flashing out of my extended fingers toward the sky. There is more to it, but that's enough to tell you about that. Several days ago...standing outside and extending my hand toward the sky and preparing to bring more rain to now-soggy and groggy and inundated Virginia...the Si's stopped me. They communicated that my mind HAD REACHED A NEW PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT. They seemed to be quite pleased about it. As if I had "graduated" from something less to something more. They told me...from now on to just look at the sky, and I would be able to "see" lightning bolts flashing out of my eyes at the sky. They said my brain had new power of some sort, now. That I was "different now." They also warned me...to be sure NOT to ever look at any person or living thing...and "see" the lightning bolts flashing from my eyes. That it would destroy that person or living thing. They told me that I had had so much experience by now...in controlling the various other-dimensional effects...that they felt it was quite safe to trust me in this regard; i.e., not to lose my temper and use the lightning bolts from the eyes on some trivial argument or even fight with some human or humans. Or to use it in any wrong way, for that matter. What impressed me was: their emotion over this development. Ordinarily the Si's do not reflect an emotion...and didn't think their ever having reflected an emotion...and didn't think they were capable of it. But this development seemed to be something very big to them. My own impression: they are leading me, taking me, step by step, upwards on some kind of scale...to see how much power of theirs a human can contain and survive...to see how a human brain which has been modified by them (they did that to me years ago) could grow and progress under that modification. You don't know my mind and mental processes...but I love children; have had many opportunities to kill attackers in combat situations, yet did not do so; I love pets; won't even hunt because I can't conceive of killing God's creatures unless I were starving, just to survive; and I have steel-nerved control over these reflexes. Just thought the above might be interesting to you, to know about. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134, CHS, Norfolk, Va. Ted Owens === **Page: 2 of 2** July 12, 1970 Mr. Hank Stram, Coach Kansas City Chiefs Football Team Liberty, Missouri Dear Mr. Stram: I regret to say...that I must, for the sake of a demonstration...block, and stop, the Kansas City Chiefs from...this 1970 season...with my mind...from attaining World Championship status again this year. In other words...from this moment on, your team has no chance whatsoever of becoming World Champion. And it might never, from this time on, because "PK" grows, once it is once used...as the Philadelphia Eagles found out. Not only did I wreck their team; get Kuharich fired; put Wolman into bankruptcy...but this has continued...as you know the Eagles have just been "frozen" in a sort of limbo, etc. Of course you won't believe this...that a man's mind...could wreck your fine team. It would only be human to disbelieve it. For nothing like it has ever existed. What you can expect: A season of unprecedented fumbling, bumbling, strange freak accidents and injuries, all causing games to be lost. It will be weird. And that's how you will know...that "PK Man" is doing it with his mind. I could not, of course, put on this demonstration with a weak team. It must of necessity be the toughest and best team in the world...and that happens to be your team. I respectfully suggest...that you do not throw this letter away...file it...and remember it. You might as well know something further...I control pro football. Last season I was instrumental in controlling various pro football teams. This is a plain fact. Check with the owners of the Miami Dolphins; with the coach of the Jets, or Namath; and the Phila. Eagles staff. I told them in advance of the season what to expect. I also control pro basketball; but that's beside the point, and not important here. It will be a strange, weird game when you play the All Stars, because my control will begin in that game. You just might win it, if you are lucky...but it will be at high price. However, power from another dimension...will be working against your team...in that game on July 31st.

As well as Mr. Singer. Enclosed is a letter which is self-explanatory. It is very valuable to me, and you can return it whenever you are able. Now...you recall some months ago...that I notified you that the SI's would actually "broadcast" all over the U.S., from their craft, in the way that they have...in order to subtly force people to buy Saga when it came out with our story? Matter of fact, Mr. Singer sent me an advance copy so that I could telepathize the cover to the SI's...so that they in turn could telepathize it, with an order to get it, to the American people everywhere. I just received a letter from a man I've never heard of. Mr. Avram Davidson, 2 Wootton Road, Essex Fells, New Jersey, 07021. In the letter Mr. Davidson (1) says that he was mentally forced into going and looking for Saga and buying it...with our story in it, and (2) he was then forced to notify me about it. What this means...is that the SI's actually had him do this...in order to notify me, and you, and Mr. Singer...that they were cooperating with us! He begins by talking about reading my book...then, "Then I started getting a desire to read this months SAGA magazine. I found myself canvasing stores I never went into before looking for this months SAGA. Sort of getting mugged into buying the magazine. Naturally this issue started with an interview with you...I might add that I have been thinking of writing to you for some time but never until now got around to it." He goes on and ends with: "Well sir my question is this, are the SI in some manner desiring me to contact you? I realize that this is virtually stupid of me, as well as damn egotistical, but I was wondering if they were after me to write to you? I'm sorry if I have wasted your time with this letter, but something inside of me was sort of pestaring me to do it." And there you have it. One of the most amazing things I've ever encountered! Of course he would have no way of knowing of the arrangement I'd set up...to get an advance copy...to broadcast the suggestion through the SI's, etc. Do you agree on this?

Let's recap. You brought Pincon over to see me. He was insulting. I wrote you and told you the SI's would give him a spanking for that. (He got off lightly compared to what has happened to others who insulted me.) In the newspapers a few days ago I read that Pincon's house...which is a haven for hippies...was raided by the police, who caught one of the men in the house with hashish in his pockets. Now, what will be the result of that? From now on you may rest assured that all mail going to and going from that house will be intercepted and scanned. The phone(s) may be tapped. Probably. The doctors and respectable professional men who have been dealing with that house...now will have sober second thoughts, certainly not wishing to be embarrassed by having their connection with a "haven" which shelters dope addicts with dope in their pockets, and police running in and out, known. They will probably drop away their professional support. Pincon himself will no doubt have his past scrutinized as it has never been scrutinized before. And if I read him right, it will not stand scrutinizing. In short...nice spanking. Ted Owens (PK Man) P.S. And of course it will be much more difficult for him now to get financial backing for the "haven". Or cult, as the case may be. Owens D. Sprinkle Postal APM 19 Jul 70 RGS === **Page: 2 of 2** Dr Sprinkle Saturday, July 18, 1970 President Nixon: At 2:15 P.M., as I was having lunch at the Puritan Cafe in Norfolk, the top intelligence of the SI's appeared on the empty seat opposite me...it has a black, shapeless head with blazing eyes...that's all I could see...and this is the first time it has ever done this. As I looked at it in astonishment...it seemed to fumble for words...as I would in Mexico City trying to order something in Spanish...and slowly, very slowly, the following message appeared: "TELL PRESIDENT DANGER SOON!" And then it vanished. And that was all I could get. I tried to figure out...if it meant danger for you, personally.. such as an attempted assassination by some nut, or danger for the U.S. About the only way I could get a clue...would be to go by my "feeling" that went with the message...and the "feeling" is that it is personal danger to you, in the immediate future. Say, for the next 90 days your life might be in the greatest danger from some unexpected source. (That 90 days is my guess.) I called the Secret Service here in Norfolk at 2:30, but no answer; guess they don't work on Saturday here. There's no quick pipeline to you for info the SI's give me, which is a pity. If they warn me of some danger on Saturday or Sunday...and it strikes on Saturday or Sunday...there's no way to get it topside, the message, that is. I.e., "soon" as the SI's say...might mean today or tomorrow...in which case this message would be too late. You see? No way to get it to you at all from Norfolk. So, seeing as how the SI's used a "first" to get this message across...not relying on their usual method of communication...I would guess that something really big is up, aimed at you personally...and it might be a good idea to avoid the White House for a bit. Or tip off just where you'll be for a bit. And be very careful, very careful, at this point of time...keep well guarded. Trusted guards, even. Ted Owens, (PK Man) Box 3141 CHS, Norfolk, Va. Owens P.S. I think the danger may stem from a Senator or Congressman or perhaps a political might official, willing to pay the price for an attempt on your life.

Flooding 7/23/70 ALEXANDRIA (AP) - Eastern area headquarters of the American Red Cross said its chapters in Southwestern Virginia, Western North Carolina, and Southeastern West Virginia have been alerted to be prepared for possible flash flooding from 6 p.m. Wednesday until noon today. The flood watch covered 12 Virginia counties as Tropical Storm Becky moved northward with rainfall up to 6 inches possible, according to the Weather Bureau. The Virginia counties warned included Wise, Dickenson, Buchanan, Tazewell, Bland, Giles, Montgomery, Pulaski, Wythe, Floyd, Carroll, and Grayson. A Red Cross spokesman said chapter workers and national disaster staffs are standing by to render any assistance that may be necessary. Persons in the affected counties living in low-lying areas or along streams were advised to keep tuned to local radio or television stations for further reports. In event of serious flooding, the spokesman said, instructions will be broadcast for evacuations and places of shelters. Thursday, July 23, 1970 WEATHER BUREAU FORECAST TO 7:00 P.M.

If that certain column containing the certain phrase of words is clipped out and kept on the person of that reader, and underneath their pillow at night, with the reader saying that phrase of words once daily...then tremendous good fortune will come to that reader. It is not necessary at all that the reader believe in it or have any faith in it. And you can express your skepticism as much as you like. All that is necessary is...that the reader follow instructions. And you will ask...readers to send in any odd, unusual results they might get...to be serious about it, no funnies...for you to "file".

Quandary: I proposed a bargain, (for the Si's): I would quit making it rain constantly in this area, if the paper would publish a confirmation of the Multiple-Miracles which I'd just brought about (through the Si's) in this area. You dropped over, said okay, and ran the article. But: the article did not mention that I said in writing I'd bring a storm in a week, and got it in five days; that I'd make weird electromagnetic effects happen in this area, and then the "strange object in the sky" appeared, that I'd save the crops, and they were saved; that I'd actually bring a hurricane close enough to water the area down with rain, and hurricane Becky did just that. And so forth. These were the things you were supposed to publish, to make our agreement valid...yet you did not. Just a vague general mention that I'd written "a month ago" I'd make it rain and storm, and there'd been a "few". Ha. All right. Now, problem. You did publish a confirmation for the Si's, although you confirmed the wrong things. And you seem to be in good faith about the matter, and want the rain stopped. Do I keep it raining all summer long (I can certainly do that) because you didn't give the Si's what they want? Or do I remove the mechanism that's set up...and make it stop raining...because you did produce a confirmation column, albeit the wrong confirmation, in good faith, but just erring? Here is what the Si's have instructed me: I'm to keep on making it rain week after week, until I hear from you on this. If I do not hear from you on this then I'm to assume that you either don't care whether it rains or not, or, since the Si's are allowing you to be the fair judge of the matter...you realize you didn't give them what they wanted, and judge that the rain should continue. In the event that you write and tell me you thought the article was what the Si's wanted, and did it in good faith expecting the rain to end...then and only then will I stop the rainfall. Okay?

Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3141 CHS, Norfolk, Va. === **Page: 2 of 10** Dr. Sprinkle LEDGER-STAR Friday afternoon, July 31, 1970 section B Virginia Beach hit by severe lightning By JACK DORSEY VIRGINIA BEACH — Lightning during a severe thunderstorm Thursday night touched ground at more than a dozen places, causing some damage and knocking out power to 25 or 30 customers. The central dispatcher for the Virginia Beach fire and rescue squad said today two radio transceivers were knocked out in his office by surges in power from the storm. Virginia Beach Junior High School, The Cavalier Hotel and at least four residences in scattered areas of the city placed calls to the fire department for assistance between 7:30 and 11 p.m. There were no injuries or major fires. The U.S. Weather Bureau at Norfolk Regional Airport said today the thunderstorm was confined to Virginia Beach and had little effect on other Tidewater area cities. A spokesman at the Weather Bureau said the storm was located north, east and south of the airport and he called it a "typical thunderstorm." He also said there has been a theory advanced lately that the unusually large amount of haze in the area is responsible in part for lightning being grounded more easily. The haze condition might have helped, he said, but this is only a theory that is being studied. Elsewhere in Virginia Beach, the Virginia Electric and Power Co. said it had a "hectic" night. "We had a lot of wind, rain and lightning," said Wallace Faison, district supervisor for the Virginia Beach Vepco office. "There were no widespread power failures." Faison said the affected areas included Thalia Creek, Kings Grant, Kingston, Little Neck and Malibu. The power failures affected only three or four customers in each of the areas, he said. A transformer on a utility pole exploded when struck by the lightning and caught fire, he said. According to the rescue squad dispatcher, the two radios knocked out at the Princess Anne Plaza headquarters were a stand-by remote fire transmitter and the Public Works Department transceiver. Officials at the Cavalier Hotel said today no damage occurred to the building. This lightning attack - called by me in advance, in writing. (Documented.) Owens === **Page: 3 of 10** August 1, 1970 ..... TO ALL CONTACTS (1) Re my EM and steam demonstration on this Norfolk/Virginia Beach area, large headline in the newspaper Ledger-Star here last night, 7/31/70: "VIRGINIA BEACH HIT BY SEVERE LIGHTNING" by Jack Dorsey. It points out that a severe lightning attack...caused bolts of lightning to hit more than a dozen places in Virginia Beach...including the Virginia Beach High School, The Cavalier Hotel (famous spot) and "at least" four homes in scattered areas of the city...the "storm" was confined to Virginia Beach...two radio transmitters were knocked out "by surges in power" (see my earlier correspondence to you re the "grid" that would indeed cause surges in power)...the authorities stated this lightning attack "is being studied" as to its cause...the Virginia Electric and Power Company said it had a "hectic night." And it is interesting that one of the radio transmitters knocked out was a "fire transmitter"..(do you recall that for a joke I stood in front of the fire department and signalled for a lightning attack recently?) (2) The All Star-KC Chiefs Game last night. Score: Chiefs 24, Stars 3. And I told you...that I would use my mind, PK powers, to block and stop the Chiefs, right? Well, you say, obviously it didn't work, right? Wrong. The PK worked amazingly well. Let me show you how it did. The World Champions only made, earned, one touchdown. That's 7 points. And they got a kick. That's 3 points. All together the Chief's champion offensive team...only made 10 points! Not only that, but during the entire second half of the game, and remember they were playing, as it turned out, an impotent, helpless Star team that couldn't run and couldn't pass...during the entire second half the Chiefs could not score. They tried every trick in the book, too. And Dawson, said to be the best quarterback in all the pro teams, played just about the whole game. Now, the extra 14 points...were gift points..."cheap" touchdowns, as the pros put it...not made on purpose by the crack offensive team, but scored by the defensive team when the Star quarterbacks simply threw the ball away to Chief defenders, who took the gifts and ambled over for scores. I think that Hank Stram, the Chiefs coach, would be fair enough to tell you...that the lowly Miami Dolphins, with equal practice time, could have beaten them, the Chiefs, last night. Not only that...the PK stopping the Chiefs very cold...but the PK gave the All Stars opportunities to make touchdowns at least a half a dozen times! But what did they do with the opportunities? Threw the ball away into the arms of the Chiefs, or dropped passes, stumbled and bumbled and tossed away every opportunity the PK attack gave them. As I wrote you previously...the PK cannot carry the ball. All it can do is pave the way for scoring, by blocking the other team and holding back the other team. The favored team must capitalize on the breaks...and this is where the Stars broke down. Without the two cheap gift touchdowns...the score would have been 10-3; and if the Stars had scored even two or three of the splendid chances the PK gave them to make touchdowns...they'd have beaten the Chiefs easily. If you will watch the Chiefs now, as they go further into the season...you'll see them fall apart with key injuries. They'll win some games; but the PK will take them apart...and they won't be World Champions again. You may think this is all poppycock; but I've been attacking with PK for several years - you might say I'm a pro at it - and remember how I dismantled the Eagles! Believe me, it's mighty potent stuff!

(Starting with drought!) July 18, 1970 Editor, Virginian-Pilot Newspaper Editor, Ledger-Star Newspaper Mr. Larry Maddry Mrs. N. Dyer, Court Reporter Well, well, well...you see? You didn't pay attention. And look what happened! As you know, since I first wrote you and put on record that I intended bringing rain to this drought-stricken area...this area has had rain every week for about two months, approx. I haven't missed one single week, have I, in bringing rain to this area since first writing to you? Well, then...all I got from you was silence...so I put up an other-dimensional EM grid...so cause radio and TV and other electrical and EM weird effects in the area. Also, I warned you that Virginia Beach was going to be smarting...as the result of this rain, continued rain, and the loss of tourist dollars. Hokay! You know what happened Thursday, July 16...giant Art Show at the Beach...people there by the thousands...an Annual Art Show. Outside. And the artists gleefully set up their paintings and rubbed their hands, seeing dollar signs in these thousands of onlookers. Swoosh! Down came the rain. People ran in all directions. Oil paintings and other paintings simply vanished as the rain poured down on them...and all those lovely dollar signs vanished, too, in the eyes of the artists...as they watched those lovely thousands of people run for their dry lives. I quote the newspaper: "Rain interrupted the show (art) twice Thursday and cut the volume of sales. Last year the total was about $19,000.00 for the first two days." Based on the last year sales...the artists could have dropped roughly $9,000.00 (which is more than I make in a week). The next day...Friday...without repeated rainstorms...the artists made $13,669.00. So...I warned you in advance they'd drop a bundle at the Beach from the rain...but you didn't listen...and they did. Just as an added phillip...on Thursday nite and Friday nite, June 16 and 17...TV sets went haywire in this area...and across the TV screen flashed the message: "This is not your TV set, but due to co-channel atmospheric interference." There was also loss of sound on programs and other freakish things happening. The "grid" is getting stronger now. But...Hope Is On The Horizon. Possibly the SI's may get their wish, bless their little hearts...and this true miraculous story just might get printed, so that it will be on record...in which case the storms will come to a screeching halt...and all will be heaven again for those Lovely Tourists, as well as the nail-biting Va. Beach Chamber of Commerce.

Dyer, Court Reporter So you won't tell the people...the true story...of what is happening, eh? Shame on you. The primary duty...of a newspaper...is to keep its public, the people, informed of the truth of things...no matter what. Even UFO's. So yesterday and today...the area has been deluged, and bombarded with more lightning. Matter of fact, the area is now getting quite soggy...floods everywhere; baseball games rained out; racetrack flooded out; rivers flooding over, and so forth. And of course...the tourists, and all those lovely dollars, ain't happy at all. How can they be...dodging lightning bolts and wiping driving rain out of their eyes? It is very interesting...how my UFO friends do this, you know. Unless I've missed count...five weeks in a row, the same thing has occurred. To bring the rain (and lightning) to the Norfolk/Virginia Beach area...the ingredients are rounded up on the west coast and the mid west, and then they are moved to this area, where they are parked long enough to do a fine job on this area of storms and lightning as per my "arrangement." Simply check your weather maps...and you will see that it has been so. Rain pours down over the weekend....then there's a lull of a few days while the necessary ingredients for the next deluge are rounded up and brought across the country to here...and wham! There we go again! 1,2,3,4,5 times now. Consistent, isn't it? This can go on and on, you know. And will. But if you get tired of lightning and rain...and want to help out the Virginia Beach Chamber of Commerce...just run that story the SI's want...and I personally will see to it that this area has beautiful, gorgeous, rainless weather all the rest of this tourist season.

Dyer, Court Reporter Ever been propositioned by a flying saucer? Well, you are being, now. The SI's communicated with me today and directed me to send this message. Their request: that the local newspapers tell the public that they have saved the local crops, which were in disaster- danger from drought. (Have you noticed your third rainstorm is going on this morning outside?) Let the writer explain the letters IN ADVANCE of the rainstorms, saying it would happen. Also they request that the mysterious "halo" that the Weather Bureau could not explain, be connected with the letter stating that this area would be electro-magnetized by an other-dimensional grid...and that weird, strange things WOULD happen, like that halo. In short, they want the people, the public, to know what is transpiring. (And incidentally, if any of your friends start behaving peculiarly...the SI's say that this giant electro- magnetic field WILL AFFECT HUMANS, because each of us has an electrical field of our own.) In return...the SI's will cease with their rainstorms. Now, why should the local newspapers cooperate in this? Very simple. Bundles and bundles of money will be lost...by this resort area, famous resort area...with the rain pouring down every few days, on and on. Mrs. Gotrocks in New York will tell her husband..."dear, let's not go down to Virginia Beach this season, too much rain down there...let's go somewhere else." And they will, too. And the people here in the hotels and motels will have to sit inside the hotels and motels, cussing and chewing on their fingernails in frustration. Lots of tourist money involved. And the SI's say...they will begin to show their craft, their flying saucers and strange UFO's...in this area soon. Incidentally...I work for nobody...part-time typist picking up and there. Need any typing done up there? Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Postmark July 2, 1970 RPS === **Page: 8 of 10** July 6, 1970 Editor, Virginian-Pilot Newspaper Editor, Ledger-Star Newspaper Larry Maddry Mrs. N. Dyer, Court Reporter In this letter...am going to make you a most interesting...proposition. But first...have a chuckle for the day. You know, of course, that lightning struck and destroyed the humble Oil tank over the weekend, and the local fire department was on the job the whole weekend trying to contain it. Well at noon today I strolled over and stood right in front of the Fire Department and signalled the Si's to produce lots more lightning and storms. Heh heh. How fiendish can you get? Now, to serious business. IF one of your newspapers will publish this entire matter...my letters, the dates on them...the drought...the danger...storms...crops saved...lightning attacks as per my call on it... Electromagnetic "grid" then the sighting of the "strange object in the sky". The whole thing. Publish it. Then I'll tell you what I'll do. For starters...I'll stop making storms and hitting Norfolk with lightning. For a bonus I'll do this: Most people think that Pete Rozelle, Commissioner of Pro Football, controls pro football. Actually, he does not. Owens does. Last year I controlled the Eagles, the Dolphins, and the Jets. They know about it, and so do my contacts. I think Maddry saw enough documentation on my work with pro football and basketball, to know something about this. Now, the Si's have a plan of their own...to attack all pro teams this coming season with the object of creating entire teams of walking-wounded. Well, that's their business. But I'll tell you what I'll do. The paper that prints the above story that the Si's want printed...may choose any five pro football teams they want, for the coming pro season, to be losers. And you can start with the World Champions to be number one losers, if you want to. I'll take those five teams...and beat them with my mind...just my mind... this coming pro season. Freakish things will happen to them...and they will not be able to make a Championship. They'll be losers next season. I can do all that...as easily as I make storms and lightning attacks. Try me, and see. Your readers should be fascinated to see...whether I can do it or not, even if you are not especially interested. Now, you might think it is childish for the Si's to take a special interest in such a trivial thing as pro football. But I happen to know their plan... and it is ultra-brilliant. Not trivial at all. Just looks that way.

Featuring, as usual, my trademark...a dandy lightning attack. Matter of fact...the lightning blew up its second oil tank in two weeks...once might be a coincidence (in spite of the fact that I put in writing in advance that lightning would attack) but twice? That's being rather selective you know. Actually...the humor of it is that Humble Oil, in collecting insurance on this huge loss...will call the matter "an act of God"...when actually it was an act of Owens. Ha ha ha. No, I'm not confusing myself with God, now. I'm a lousy bookkeeper, have big feet, am potbellied middleaged loaded with human faults...but I do have this teensy weensy ability to make storms and have lightning strike. What if I were ridden out of town on a rail? Wouldn't do any good. I once flooded India while I lived in Philadelphia...called in advance in writing, of course, as well as broadcast over the radio. Nope, distance doesn't stop this at all. But look at it this way...the crops have been saved, haven't they? You certainly can't say I haven't kept my written promise....Norfolk was a dry, drought-stricken area. You've had downpour after downpour....lightning attack after lightning attack.

At present there is a very dangerous situation from New York to Atlanta...poisonous air, atmospheric inversion. They are predicting deaths from this, any day now. The air pollution in Washington D.C. reached its highest level in history. This poison air covers most of the Southeast. And the weather bureau sees no end to it at present. I can and will remove this dangerous situation...for I can control the atmospheric conditions. (When I broke the 6-year drought on the East Coast, I had to reverse the high-altitude atmospheric conditions which had caused the drought.) But this is a swap, a trade. In return, I want you to publish the June 16, 1970, letter I sent you...and simply state the fact that what I predicted in that letter, all of it, has come to pass...in five weeks' time. (It has.)

Then I'll go into fast action to get rid of all this air poison over such a large area, fast, and I'll take your verbal word over the phone that you'll give me the published confirmation above that I ask for, in swap.

Since June 16, 1970...these things above have occurred; the first heavy rainstorm came within five days after Ted Owens handed me the written prediction, and there have been rainstorms once or twice a week since that time. The newspapers told that the crops have been saved. Hurricane Becky just came into life...and this week the Norfolk area is getting rain from the hurricane, days of it. There have been several tremendous lightning storms in the area...and on two different occasions huge oil tanks were struck by lightning, and blew up in flames. And there was one other thing: Ted Owens handed me a written prediction that he would put over this area an "other-dimensional grid" which would have the function of causing weird, unusual electromagnetic effects in the Norfolk area. Shortly after he gave me this written prediction, a "strange object in the sky" was reported by all of the local TV stations...which told of hundreds of people calling the police and fire department that they had seen a huge, multicolored "halo" up over the city in the night sky. I certify that the above is a true and accurate statement of fact. x Juli Dyer Mrs. N. Dyer, Court Reporter Norfolk, Virginia === **Page: 2 of 8** 23, 1970...TO ALL CONTACTS --- Multiple Miracle! have, for the first time, actually brought about a multiple miracle... and needless to say, am tremendously excited about it. It is soundly documented...completely wrapped up. I had a court reporter/notary public keep my letter-predictions in exact chronological order, before each happening. I have also a dozen other responsible people who can testify to it all. Now, here is what happened: On June 16, 1970, an article appeared in the Ledger-Star newspaper in Norfolk that this area was in a terrible drought...flowers and shrubs were dying, and the crops were in danger of disaster! I immediately that date, sat down and sent letters to the editors of both newspapers, Mr. Maddry, columnist, Mrs. Dyer, court reporter, and others...that I would do the following: (1) Try to make it rain here substantially within one week from June 16. (2) Give the area a drenching, soaking and pouring down...more and more rain...not just one rainstorm, etc. (3) The rainstorms would be marked with my own personal trademark... heavy lightning attacks. (4) I'd try to bring up a hurricane from lower Florida to this Norfolk area, or near this area...and draw more rain from it to here. (5) I'd erect a grid, other-dimensional, over this area...and produce weird electromagnetic effects in Norfolk/Virginia Beach area. (This in ltr. a few days later; am just lumping them for you.) (1) Norfolk then had a crash-bang, knockdown dragout storm five days after my letter on June 16...the 21st. It was marked by a tremendous lightning display. (2) For the next five weeks...there was a rainstorm at least once a week, sometimes twice or more a week, and it hasn't stopped raining yet! (3) Lightning in these storms during these five weeks, on two separate occasions, struck oil tanks and blew them up...knocked out power and communications, and generally raised cain. (4) Yesterday hurricane Becky threw its outer fringes of rainstorms up at the Norfolk area...and for several days, the TV weathermen say, we'll have rain from Becky here. (5) On June 29 in the evening all the TV stations began buzzing with excitement..."strange object in the sky" as announcers put it. Hundreds of people calling in to the police etc. A multi-colored "halo" had appeared over Norfolk. Next day in the paper was this heading: "Halo In Sky Puzzles Even Weather Bureau." It went on to explain...that there simply was no explanation from anybody, any official source, at all. They tried to fit it into any understandable explanation, but could not. It was simply a UFO. About a week later TV sets in the area went haywire and the words were put across the picture-screen: "This is not your set. It is due to atmospheric interference." This occurred several days in a row. So there you have it...Oh, and I almost forgot, the papers announced that the crops were saved...but, just think, the mind boggles...five simultaneous "miracles". Would be enough just to call the hurricane bringing up the rain, right? Then add to that that I made lightning strike...add to that that I created a weird EM effect over Norfolk...and the crops were saved...you see? I'll tell you now...I've accomplished some impossible things before...but this multiple miracle...tops them all, so far. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3141 CHS, Norfolk, Va.

JOE Jacksonville Tampa Miami Key West BECKY HURRICANE WATCH PANAMA CITY, Fla. (UPI) — Thousands of tourists fled inland Tuesday ahead of Hurricane Becky, aiming 75-mile-per-hour winds for a strike this morning at the "Miracle Strip" beaches of the Florida panhandle. Several thousand persons were evacuated from Santa Rosa Island, parts of Destin, and other low-lying areas Tuesday night. Advance gales and heavy rains began lashing the Gulf Coast. Hurricane shelters were set up in Panama City, Fort Walton Beach, Destin, and other cities and towns along the 100-mile stretch of Gulf Coast threatened by Becky. Panama City Beach, an 18-mile stretch of white sand and tourist motels, was in the center of the area Becky was expected to strike around 9 a.m. today. "We've got about 50,000 tourists along the miracle strip now," a Chamber of Commerce spokesman said early Tuesday, "but most of them are bailing out for higher ground." There was a steady stream of traffic on U.S. 98—the main road through this beach area that draws thousands of summer tourists from Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi—but the Highway Patrol reported no serious traffic tieups. "People are buying bread, crackers, canned goods, flashlights and milk like crazy," said Zack Bronson, manager of a food store in Destin. At 10 p.m., Becky was centered about 160 miles south-southwest of Pensacola near latitude 28.0 north and longitude 86.6 west. It was expected to resume its northward movement about 8 to 10 m.p.h. Panhandle residents were told to expect 6 foot tides and up to 8 inches of rain that could cause local flooding of roads, streams, creeks and bayous.

His eyes rolled upward, horrified. "Oh, I can't repeat them. They wouldn't want me to do that," he said. He tossed over a copy of a letter written to the editor of the Ledger-Star. "Tell the girls to put up their bikinis and get out their umbrellas. Ha. Ha. Ha.," the letter warned. AND THERE WERE CLIPPINGS from The Miami Herald and a Philadelphia paper reporting unusual rain accompanying Owens' arrival in town. In The Herald, Owens was standing by the shoreline with arms upraised like a latter day swami, beckoning rain. Let us assume Mr. Owens, that the SIs are bringing our rain. What will make it stop? "They want to make themselves real to us. They want documentation of what they are doing to this area with the weather." He paused. "You actually owe it to the local Chamber of Commerce to write about this," he added. In his files there is a letter written by a Philadelphia attorney who claims that Owens was challenged to make lightning strike a specified place--the bridge to Camden--and that lightning struck the bridge. We have no quarrel to make with a man bearing such credentials. Maybe it's the SIs who need their heads examined by a psychiatrist. === **Page: 6 of 8** Lightning Hits Gasoline Tank Norfolk Plant Imperiled, Homes Left, Ship Moved By ETHEL STEADMAN Virginian-Pilot Staff Writer NORFOLK — Lightning struck a huge gasoline storage tank at the Humble Oil & Refining Co.'s district plant on Hampton Boule- vard Saturday, setting off a spec- tacular fire which threatened to spread to several adjacent tanks. The Coast Guard, Navy, and Civil Defense personnel aided Norfolk fire fighters in combat- ting the blaze, which raged un- checked for hours. Three hours after the tank blazed up, flames appeared to be as intense as ever. Numerous residents of a nearby trailer court fled their homes as giant fireballs rolled up and out of the tank. A commercial tanker moored only 300 yards from the tank also was imperiled until crewmen moved it out into the channel. The fire started around 2:30 p.m. almost simultaneously with a series of severe lightning flash- es. A service station employee near the scene said, "The man who asked not to be identified, said he heard a noise similar to that produced when a transformer is hit by lightning. ("There was a big explosion and it shook the ground," the man said. Moments later, he looked out and saw smoke boiling from one of the Humble tanks, the man added. By 11 p.m., the Coast Guard re- ported that there was a need for additional powdered foam by fire fighters. The foam, employed to smother blazes of this sort, was to be trucked to Norfolk from Elizabeth City, N.C., at last re- port, a Coast Guard spokesman said. Heavy rainfall drenched the area during the fire's height but it appeared only to dampen the enthusiasm of spectators and not to douse the flames. As word of the fire spread, peo- ple lined up along Hampton Bou- levard to watch the show. While the periodic downpours of rain the sightseers straggled away. Winds whipped the flames side- ways from time to time, forcing firemen to turn hoses on one an- other to keep their clothing from igniting. The Navy had at least two fire boats on the scene. The Coast Guard sent the cutters Mochigan, Point Brown, and Cherokee. No South Hampton Roads city owns a fireboat. By midnight, efforts were being directed at cooling down the adjacent sotrage tanks, each of which holds 30,000 barrels of high-octane fuel. The storage tank hit Saturday was of the floating-top type and was one of four nestled together inside a low dike to prevent gaso- line spillage. In all, there are eight to 10 tanks in the immedi- ate vicinity, by one estimate. Humble officials were en route to Norfolk from Baltimore Saturday to assess the damage. The fireboats proved of little use in fighting the tank fire, as they were unable to get close enough to be effective, a Coast Guard spokesman said. They stood by case the flames spread. Shortly after midnight, the Coast Guard reported that the Elizabeth City base was unable to supply powdered foam. Addi- tional supplies of the foam were being borrowed from the Little Creek Naval Amphibious Base, the Naval Station, and the New- port News Fire Department, the Coast Guard said.

I was interested, partly because of my little-boy liking for football and partly because of the questions regarding what might happen to the KC Chiefs. I noted that the KC chief's punt return runner was bothered twice--to the extent of a fumble--but I was not certain if I could see other evidences of fumbles, injuries, and other unusual events. One question which has bothered me and which may have no immediate answer, is this: If the SI's wish to demonstrate their abilities and powers, would it be easier for them to do this in their own way rather than to use your abilities and efforts in these activities? As you indicate, there is a plan for the SI's in regard to professional football, and yet it seems that their goals must be many and varied, since professional football would seem to be rather "low on the list" of their eventual plans. Despite the questions which come to me, I appreciate the effort, time, and money involved in your sending these letters and documents to me. Thank you very much. Best wishes to you. Sincerely, R. Leo Sprinkle, Ph.D. Counselor and Associate Professor of Counseling and Testing dm === **Filename: 7008.pdf** === Page 2 of 13 Dr Sprinkle July 27, 1970..........TO ALL CONTACTS (THE PRO FOOTBALL SEASON) Now that you have all been able to read Otto Binder's masterfully-written account of my activities in SAGA Magazine...showing the depth and scope of my work...you will be better able to appreciate what I am doing now, as well as in the future. (Have just completed demonstrating five miracles in the span of five weeks! Documented.) Before proceeding further...Brad Steiger is doing a book which will be out in October...about the world's psychics...and there'll be some kind of article in it on me and my work. Mention this just in case you want to get a copy. If you want Brad's address to order a copy, just let me know. OKAY. Comming up this week...is the All-Star vs. Kansas City Chiefs game. Believe I told you, or most of you, some time ago...months...that I aimed to try to use PK to beat the KC Chiefs (current world's pro champions) in this one game. This Friday night, when the game is on, will be using my mind...to exert PK force (in a thousand ways) against the Chiefs, to help the All-Stars beat them. (The kids, you know.) Am going to use the Soldier's Field stadium in Chicago...as a "demonstration model". Will try to affect the power there...knock out lights, etc., and affect the TV and radio. My force, from my mind...could also affect the people there and cause them to do strange things. I will give the All-Stars, with my mind...many many opportunities to win the game. If they tail to take advantage of all those opportunities, then, of course, they will not win. The PK cannot pick up the ball and run with it. It can trip up the opponents and make them fumble and goof all over the place. Which is what I'll try to make happen to the Chiefs. And cause minor injuries to the Chiefs...because am going to block them this year from winning the World's Championship. I've already notified Hank Stram of this. (Also I've notified the New York Jets coach; the Dallas Cowboys coach; the Phila. Eagles coach; and the Miami Dolphins coach -- that I will use my mind...to stop them from winning the World's Championship this year.) So you can observe with interest...what happens. The Si's are going to, on their own...place their controls in every stadium this coming pro season...to affect every pro game...to cause countless injuries to players. Make walking hospitals out of all the pro football teams. Now, I am not doing this. They are. They've told me, to pass this on. My job will be to handle and control just five pro teams, with my mind. (Last year I controlled, successfully, three pro teams...one of them the Jets.) Now...you say the Si's must be out of their tree, as my friend Larry Maddry says...to do the above mean things. But I assure you...their plan is absolutely brilliant. I know why they are doing it; they have told me; but they forbid me to tell you the why of it. You can just see the result. Players being carried off the field by the many. Later on, when the time is right, they will allow me to tell you the why of this that they are doing...and then you'll gasp at their infinite cleverness! Guess that is all for now. Be sure and see that game this Friday...and hope that the Si's "time window" is okay for it. If it is okay, you'll see my mind control the game...and you'll probably see freakish things happen; a weird game. Best to you all now...and write in sometime. You might be dead and buried, a lot of you, for all I know. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS, Norfolk, Va. Owens === **Filename: 7008.pdf** === Page 3 of 13 August 7, 1970 Mr. Larry Maddry, Virginian-Pilot. Dr. Sprinkle Posted Aug 8, 1970 Dear Larry: Since my lightning kicked the stuffings out of Virginia Beach last week, I've felt guilty...because you did do a column (though not the correct one the Si's wanted)...and now I feel wrong about it when I signal for rain. So...I've discontinued, days ago, any more signaling for rain and storms. There's bound to be an "echo effect"...that is, for several weeks the mechanism I set up will be in the process of phasing out...it doesn't just happen right now. But after that, it should be very nice here. At any rate I won't be kicking up any more lightning attacks and driving rainstorms. And am taking away the "grid" the same way. That's that, and I feel better about it. I like you and want to keep the faith with you. Interestingly...the Si's told me something new yesterday, in their mysterious and inimical way. It was to the effect that they had trained me for long years...how to use ODE effects in literally hundreds of ways under varying conditions...and they asked me a question: do not lawyers study law for years to become lawyers? Do not doctors study medicine and surgery for years to become MD's? And at that point they withdrew from further communication. That can only have one meaning as I understand the Si's. They've been giving me what amounts to a "college education" in the use of their many powers, and ahead of me lies...some sort of "degree" evidently...i.e., I'll "graduate" and become "something". Of course I don't know what that "something" is. But one thing for sure. I'll be the only, single, graduate from this college, in the human race. If you aren't doing anything next Wednesday at noon...drop by 401, Plaza One, and let me treat you to an old-fashioned, delicious chicken and dumpling meal at the Puritan Restaurant that I told you about...or you could meet me there at noon. Either way. If you can make it, of course. Before closing...Dr. Simpson treated me, and the Si's, badly, when he refused to confirm the absolute fact that I called up a hurricane and guided it straight to target for him. It's documented. All right. Let's teach Dr. Simpson a lesson. Am going to call up two hurricanes to criss-cross lower Florida, making an "x" pattern (not necessarily two at the same time) either this season, or the next season. And guess what "target zero" will be! You've guessed it...the Hurricane Center (and Dr. Simpson's headquarters) at Miami University. Heh heh! Best to you and yours..... Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 cc: Dr. Simpson, Chief Hurricane Center Miami Owens === **Filename: 7008.pdf** === Page 4 of 13 August 10, 1970 Dear Dr. Sprinkle: Thank you for your communication. If you watched the All Star game on TV...then you saw the close-up of the face of the Chief quarterback, Dawson, as he came off the field in the second half...baffled, puzzled, and disgusted. And well he should be. As leader of the greatest pro football team in the world...he'd been unable to score more than a single touchdown against a bunch of kids who had never played against pros in their lives. Moreover, he'd tried every pro trick in the book...including a fake kick...to score in the second half...and was unable to do so. This is PK working; pure and simple, and powerful. The fact that the Stars threw the ball as a gift to the Chiefs a couple of times for a couple of easy scores meant nothing except that the Stars were throwing away their PK advantage. Yes, the fumble by the Chiefs runback expert, was dramatic...almost unbelievable the way it happened. The ball ran back to the eight yard line, I believe...where the Stars took it...and did their thing: threw away another chance they had to score by not scoring. I might add; when the game first came on the announcer on TV apologized for an upset in the TV communications, but said they'd finally gotten it corrected. Do not...judge my PK effectivity...on the basis of a single game which you do not understand fully. That was the fatal mistake made by the owners of the Eagles. I wrote Jerry Wolman that I could make his Eagles champs. His brother, Manny Wolman, who lives in Washington, D.C., came to Philadelphia to meet with me...and gave me a single game to prove my work. I went to the game, involving the Steelers...and blocked the Steelers most effectively -- but the Eagles threw away every PK chance they got, just like the Stars did; i.e., the Steelers would fumble inside their own 20...and the Eagles would fail to score. Time and again. And the Eagles lost. And Wolman laughed at me and dismissed me...so then I went to work in earnest to show Wolman, and the Eagles, just what I could do to them, over a period of time. When you received all my recent letters re lightning attacks, rainstorms, drought, Hurricane Becky's rainfall, and the EM UFO over Norfolk...your secretary should have collated it all in a package...gluing the newsclips in date order...so that you could easily see the absolutely miraculous series of events following my letter to you of June 16th! You ask why the Si's do not "do it themselves". I suppose I understand your question. If you've read my book, then you know that the Si's have told me that they worked with Moses, who, like Ezekial, did approximately the same things I am doing. I.e., the "Lord" would tell them to tell the people, or the Pharoah, something...he would...then the "Lord" would make it happen. All right. Why did not the "Lord" do it himself then? Instead of using Moses...or using Ezekial...as the "Lord" spokesman? You ask a penetrating question...and that is the === **Filename: 7008.pdf** === Page 5 of 13 only answer that comes to my mind, offhand. If the Lord had the tremendous powers that were displayed when he took apart the Pharoah and the Egyptians...the same powers the Si's seem to have...why, it seems logical that the Lord didn't need Moses to go all through that rigamarole of speaking to the Pharoah. Right? Why didn't the Lord just change the Pharoah's mind...i.e., do it the Lord's way with the Lord's power. Why the middleman? Same with Ezekial. I'll give you some food for thought...only by the Pharoah refusing Moses...and rejecting the powers of the "Lord"...was the Lord given opportunity to display the various powers...plagues, rodent and insect infestations, and so on. If the Pharoah had simply given in on Moses' first request then the people of that time, and the world later on, through the bibillical record...would not know anything about the mysterious powers over and beyond the natural laws of humans. In the Si's book of rules...humans must choose to be helped by them...before they are allowed to help humans. It must be human choice Incidentally...I have a complete file put together on my recent "multiple miracle"...can send it to you if you'll return it safely. But you have the same material there, that I have. Mine is just collated. This multiple miracle is perhaps the best thing I've ever done...there is no chance of "coincidence" involved...or precognition, for that matter...involving as it does a staggering variety of actions...rainstorm within a week, lightning attacks on specific areas, electromagnetic effect over Norfolk, hurricane brought into being and its rains used on Norfolk...all within the space of five weeks. Called in writing in advance. Really, no one could argue with that at all. So the football thing bothers you, eh? Heh heh. No doubt. You are like the human playing an ordinary game of chess...the Si's playing with you are, say, 25 to 50 moves ahead of you. The football thing seems trifling...and yet I think I can say, without giving the Si plan away...it's a major ploy with the Si's to obtain a major goal. Really big. Let me show you how they work: I've dealt with CIA and NASA for years...but nothing resulted. Both those agencies are, let's face it, corruptible. They almost have to be...politics to get things they want, like money for many activities and goals...power, etc. The one agency which is not corruptible is the FBI. Now, the Si's told me to write to the head of Pan Am and say they would bedevil the Pan Am 747's (this before they even flew regularly.) What happened? The Pan Am opener was a joke: lots of drum rolling in New York and the first plane...couldn't even get off the ground. So they used a substitute. It got to Europe, then all sorts of things went wrong. Shortly planes (747's still) that took off from France or Puerto Rico, had to turn back because of serious malfunctions. A 747 crashed on the runway on the west coast. So two FBI men came to see me about the matter. I explained, and they shook hands and left. THEN the Si's explained to ME that they had brought this about on purpose so that the FBI would get into the "Si action"...thus true === **Filename: 7008.pdf** === Page 6 of 13 and accurate reports...not biased by power politics or greedy money wants or anything else, as per CIA and NASA, ...would get to the top level of US government. From the FBI. This the Si's wanted. But they didn't tell me the details...until the entire thing had been accomplished, complete with the 747 incidents. They are incredibly clever. To get back to your question...which bothers you, as you say...the Si's ARE doing this in their own way... look at it this way...suppose you wanted to improve the dolphin strain. You isolated a huge herd of dolphins. Through a strange stroke of luck, you got hold of one dolphin which could actually understand you, and communicate back in turn. Now, how much easier to improve ALL the dolphins, if you could pass information on to this one dolphin which, in turn, passed it on in dolphin language to all the other dolphins...which cannot communicate with you, nor you with them? I welcome all questions which come from you, for I know they are intelligent questions...no matter how skeptical you might be...for that is, after all, a scientific approach. Observation and experimentation, skeptically, yet with an open mind. After all...I've walked the lonely road long years, demonstrating all this...with nothing but skeptics around me. But since my paranormal work is valid, solid, concrete.... it makes no difference whatever. It is simply a matter of time...until this fact is realized by humans on a high level of authority...and the paranormal work then put to useful, practical purposes...instead of demonstrations to get attention and prove points. Patience, Leo (call me Ted)....you'll never in your life encounter anything bigger, or more important...to you or the human race...than what I'm trying to show you now and in the future. You won't believe that, but I know it to be quite true. Best wishes to you. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Va. 23514 P.S. Please xerox this and send copy to Dr. HYnek, alias Allen.

Beach, 1 in N.C. 8/17/70 # Riptide Alarm Spans Beaches By MORRIS ROWE and ETHEL STEADMAN Virginian-Pilot Staff Writers A treacherous undertow extending from Cape Hatteras to Ocean City, Md., was blamed for the drowning of two people Sunday, one in Virginia Beach and the other in Buxton, N.C. The Weather Bureau issued a dangerous riptide alarm for the 300-mile stretch of beaches shortly before noon Sunday and warned bathers and surfers to beware of the strong undertow at least through today. Virginia Beach Patrolman C. W. Cover said Julio Fajardo, 19, of Guatemala, disappeared about 11:30 a.m. despite rescue attempts by his brother and two lifeguards. Fajardo was swimming about 50 yards offshore at 34th Street when he got into trouble, Cover said. Fajardo's brother, Juan, of Arlington, grabbed a float and went to Julio's aid. Julio, Cover said, grabbed Juan around the neck and almost drowned him. Two lifeguards, John Havilmand and Joe Shepherd, then went to help the brothers but were able to save only Juan. The body had not been recovered Sunday night. The Fajardos came to Virginia Beach Sunday to spend the day, Cover said. The other drowning victim was a young woman vacationing with her husband on North Carolina's Outer Banks. Mrs. Susan Jones, 23, of Cincinnati, Ohio, drowned in rough surf behind the Cape Hatteras Court Motel in Buxton. A Coast Guard spokesman said she apparently was swimming alone. Witnesses reported seeing her swimming the back stroke before she disappeared. Her body was recovered by a Coast Guard amphibious vehicle beyond the breakers four minutes after rescue personnel arrived. Efforts to revive Mrs. Jones (See Riptide, Page A8) === **Filename: 7008.pdf** === Page 8 of 13 8/17/70 # Riptide ## From Page 1 failed, and she was pronounced dead in Coast Guard sick bay at Cape Hatteras. Two young children of a State Highway Department worker drowned in the James River near Jamestown in an accident unrelated to the killer tides. James City County authorities identified the children as 13-year-old Joyce Piggott and her 9-year-old brother Keith. The children, two of nine children of the Robert Piggott family of Norge, were swimming near the Williamsburg-Jamestown Colonial Parkway when the accident occurred late Sunday afternoon. Witnesses indicated that the children apparently got out too far from shore and into water over their heads. Rescue workers recovered the body of Keith Piggott early in the evening, but had not found the other child's body by late Sunday night. Cover, a retired Navy man, said he had "never seen anything like this" in 20 years in the Navy. He quoted Hugh Kitchin, captain of the Virginia Beach Patrol, the lifeguard service, as saying Sunday's undertow was only the fourth time in 40 years he had seen the water at Virginia Beach so treacherous. Riptides occur when water, piled onto a beach by waves or swells, rushes quickly back into the ocean. Sunday, swells of up to eight feet and tides up to six feet were reported in Virginia Beach. Cover put it this way: "There is a rough surf and strong undertow coming from the south-southeast. The waves come in, crash down on top of the water and immediately go back out, creating a suction effect that carries swimmers out with it. "Normally the waves come in, break and flow up on the beach. They weren't doing that. They'd just come, crash down and move back out." Police tried to close the entire oceanfront from Ft. Story to the North Carolina line at 12:30 p.m., but found that all they could do legally was issue warnings. Police, Coast Guardmen, and National Park Service officials patrolled beaches from Fort Story to Cape Hatteras Sunday. Despite warnings, they reported, some swimmers entered the water. The Coast Guard dispatched the cutter Pt. Huron to cruise the Virginia capes to help boatmen in distress. Hundreds were reportedly experiencing difficulty returning to calm water, but no incidents were recorded. The weekend sea conditions apparently were a spinoff from the tropical disturbance, now dissipated, which Friday caused a delay in the departure of a shipload of nerve gas from Sunny Point, N.C. The Weather Bureau said the trough of low pressure caused squalls and generally rough weather offshore. This turbulence kicked up the waves and swells which produced the riptides. The tide Sunday was extremely low about 12:30 and although not directly related to the undertow situation, it did cause the grounding of the biggest charter fishing boat operating out of Rudee Inlet. Earl Paul, owner of the Sea Robin II, a 65-foot, $70,000 party boat, said he went aground in the Rudee Inlet channel at 12:40 as he tried to make it to dockside. A second boat, the Jo-Dee, owned by policeman J. T. Haley, came in behind Paul, but didn't have enough clearance around the Sea Robin II to make it through the channel. Paul said he was temporarily in danger of cracking up the boat against the rock jetties before he could tie the boat securely. Haley put a line from the Jo-Dee on the Sea Robin to help keep it from going onto the rocks. Paul said he didn't think his boat was damaged, and he was able to make it dockside at 3:30 p.m. Haley followed. The Sea Robin is new and started operating in Rudee in June. Paul said he ran aground every day for the first two weeks he had the boat in operation. Sunday he said he believed a northeaster earlier this week dumped about six inches of sand in the Rudee channel and that was what caused his problem. "That six inches was our margin of safety," he said. Sam Scott, director of the Bureau of Tourism, whose job includes the development of Rudee Inlet, was called to the scene Sunday but declined to comment on the situation. Another spokesman Sunday said dredging probably will begin today to open the channel.

A most interesting situation has arisen now. As a result of the Saga article, I was fired from the office where I worked...because the most stupid boss there (called "Double Ugly" by the employees) has a deathly fear of UFO's... when he found out about the articles. As a result...am now without a car, without money, without proper clothes...and age 50. You figure it out. I could make 20 to 30 thousand a year...you bet...with a bankroll to start it off. But have no bankroll. Anyway...enclosed find some clippings. Couldn't enclosed the second clipping re the 74 mph storm yesterday, because of lack of funds to get downtown, and to get the necessary papers. Anyone else will have to check with you. Now, to business. And it is very, very interesting. As you know, I had signaled the Sis, and they put a "grid" over this area...and per my daily signals as per my training, they sent weekly tough thunderstorms into this Norfolk/Virginia Beach area. Then Larry Maddry wrote me and said, "I give the hell up...let's have an interview..." in order to get this area off the hook. He did the interview, and I stopped signaling the Si's. This per my agreement with Maddry and the newspaper. I explained to Maddry that the mechanism as set up (ODE mechanism) would not instantly go away...that it would have to be slowly phased out...taking some weeks. Sunday a tremendous, and rare, killer undertow hit Virginia Beach...which only two weeks ago was hit by a lightning attack like you've never seen... then Monday, a tremendous thunderstorm which flooded the area, WITH 74 MPH WINDS. (Otto...you've got clippings to cover both...as I explained above, the other contacts will have to do without the "74 mph storm"...reason as explained above.) You see...although the Si's have trained me rigorously...in over a hundred ways to USE ODE methods...PK methods...they haven't given me a single method of REMOVING the PK, or the ODE mechanism! And I thought this would interest you to know it. I had, of course, assumed that if I stopped my daily signals, then the phenomena would cease. But...that might not be the case. If ODE attacks keep on happening into September, then I'll have to contact my "professors" in the other dimension...and get some specialized training in how to remove this thing. In closing...am deeply disappointed that I have been unable to get a written confirmation on my "Multiple Miracle" of recent date from my friendly scientists, who are observing. (This is why the Si's are hostile to scientists.) They were in on it from the beginning. If Dr. S, Dr. H, or Dr. F...would like to give me a detailed written (perhaps notarized) confirmation on my recent "Multiple Miracle"...which am very proud of... it would help me, and the Si's, very very much. Of course, if they do not wish...it is their prerogative. Personally I feel it is a matter of truth over scientific "image". And what I have accomplished is TRUTH. After all...I can only send in my written predictions in advance, before the fact. I cannot be there in the scientists' offices to date-stamp the material, and collate their file for them...so that they can see the miracle that is happening. Ted Owens (PK Man) Owens Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia. === **Filename: 7008.pdf** === Page 10 of 13 August 12, 1970 Dr. Simpson, Chief Hurricane Bureau, Miami Dear Dr. Simpson: Am writing to point out a most inaccurate and really unscientific statement that you made to Maddry, the local reporter, when he called you a while back and talked to you. You told him (approx.) that I'd sent you a whole lot of material...but nothing helpful. Nothing...helpful? I could not believe my ears! First...although I came down there personally and showed you my documented file...your letter to me, my answer to you, followed by the demonstration I promised you...a cane to Cape Kennedy...and you would not admit even this to Maddry. But...let's get to your statement about "nothing helpful" in my info to you. The season before Hurricane Camille...I wrote you and warned you...that the Si's were going to produce the "granddaddy of them all...biggest and most powerful hurricane ever to hit the U.S." It didn't hit that season...it hit the following season. Camille WAS the granddaddy of them all. How was my information helpful? If you'd believed me, as you should have by now...you'd have warned the people of the possibility of this, and they'd have been prepared. Also, in all that "unhelpful material" I carefully explained to you that all hurricanes then, and now, are Si canes...they are different than old, ordinary hurricanes. They are special, with special properties. Why was this information helpful? Because, if you'd have believed me...countless lives would have been saved and that's a fact. Before Camille struck, newspapers printed stories of people who were going to "ride out Camille...because they'd been through hurricanes before." Before Celia just struck people announced they'd ride her out...because they'd been through hurricanes before. Yes, sure, but NOT SI CANES. If they'd KNOWN these were special canes, with special properties, known about the Si's...then they'd played safe and gotten the hell out of there! You, sir, have failed quite badly...in your duty...to the people of this country...to keep them informed, accurately and adequately. Also, in all of that "unhelpful material" I offered to give you the services of my Si mind...the only one of its kind in the world...to AVERT hurricanes as they approached. If you'd believed me...I could have turned Camille back, and the same with Celia. You aren't a dumb man. I enjoyed talking with you. You are very intelligent. So that I KNOW and YOU KNOW that what I am saying is quite true. My documentation is quite powerful and good. And you damn well know that, too. But it isn't fair to the people whom you're supposed to be guarding with YOUR services...to let them keep on thinking the hurricanes that approach are ordinary hurricanes. You know that Celia was the only one of its kind ever; Camille was quite a fooler too, yes? Think about it a while.

(Cushman and Hochman) Gentlemen: As I explained some time ago...my "duty" for the 21's this pro football season...is to control five pro teams...the Jets, the Dolphins, the KC Chiefs, the Eagles and the Cowboys. By control, I mean...stop them from attaining the World Championship, which means taking their team apart as the season progresses, and causing them to lose games. Now, I didn't pick the patsies to control...the Jets, KC Chiefs and Cowboys are just about the best teams around in the world. So far in the season the Eagles have lost 2 (out of 3); the Jets have lost 2 (out of 3); the Cowboys have lost 2 (out of 3), and the Chiefs have lost 1 out of 3. This isn't bad for a PK start. But...the Miami Dolphins so far have eluded the PK. Ha ha ha. So naturally...I'll have to give a special demonstration on the Dolphins. Special PK will now be assigned to get rid of Griese and Waterfield, the two stars holding the team together. And that will be all of that. You can watch it happen, now. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens === **Filename: 7008.pdf** === Page 12 of 13 August 28, 1970 Mr. Allan Dale Avco Broadcasting Corporation Box 2641 San Antonio, Texas 78206 Dear Allan: It was a pleasure spending an hour talking with you over the phone last night. I hope...that it was up to your expectations. If your program last night with me...is like the others I've had...you'll be deluged with mail as a result of it. Please let me know if this is so. Reason. This letter is a letter of confirmation...that as of last night I "hit" San Antonio with various powers from another dimension. The only human being in this world able to do such a thing. The object: to heal the people now sick with diphtheria, in much quicker time than is normally possible (especially the children) and to kill and void the diphtheria germs in San Antonio completely, so that the epidemic which is now in effect there, vanishes quickly. The special powers which I sent...other-dimensional powers from another world than our own...should, besides accomplishing the above, create such a healing atmosphere in San Antonio...that many others who are sick and crippled, will get well (besides the diphtheria patients.) After you hung up last night, I communicated with the Si's instantly...told them the situation, and what was needed, then I released the mental connection and made a cup of coffee...right on schedule came their telepathic "capsule"...a whole lot of information given me telepathically in a split-second. I sat down and wrote it out...my instructions from them on how to proceed...then I proceeded. First, I visualized my "Angel Box"...a mental picture of a box with the lid opening, then out flows rainbow-like "things" I have named angels, because they are so dynamically healing. I sent 100 of them flowing into San Antonio, which I also pictured in my mind's eye. Thus, the darkened city of San Antonio was covered with 100 of these gorgeous rainbow creatures whose sole duty it is...is to heal and make happy. Next...I visualized the darkened area that was San Antonio at night...opened a mentally-pictured box called "Healing PK" and let the strange forms from it flow into San Antonio, and as they did they changed the darkened area from black into an x-ray white. Next in my mind I picked up "Nature's Telephone"...just like a phone booth...except that the phone is a direct line to Nature. And requested that Nature heal the sick in San Antonio and especially heal quickly the diphtheria-sick, and kill the diphtheria germs; and if Nature might not like to kill them, at least take them somewhere else other than San Antonio. Next I used my "disc method" on the hundreds or thousands of sick in San Antonio...simultaneously. I.e., instead of === **Filename: 7008.pdf** === Page 13 of 13 2 charging and coding one disc for an individual..I charged and coded an entire city. Instead of a disc, a city. You see, with these intelligences...they think to infinity...their powers extend to infinity...it is as easy to charge and code an entire city as a small disc. I could charge and code the world, for that matter. But I will not, until some conditions are met. Next I used "time displacement"....by an ODE process I exchanged the year 1970 in San Antonio, for the year 1968 in San Antonio, (when there was no diphtheria, you see?) So that, if that technique works...the diphtheria epidemic that is going on now, will simply vanish and go back in time to the year 1968. Finally, in conclusion...I prayed to God, in the name of Jesus, for Him to heal the sick in San Antonio, and especially the little children. That's a "last but not least" thing, because once I merely prayed to God, and made him a "deal"...and then experienced three consecutive miracles that you'd never believe sworn on a thousand Bibles. I know, and can testify, how very REAL God is and can be. This is the very first time...I've ever broken down and explained the way or the methods I've used...to approach an experiment of this sort, a Si experiment. I have just concluded here in Norfolk...a multiple-miracle, involving rainstorms called down onto a drought area; lightning attacks on a certain area; a UFO over Norfolk; a hurricane produced and its rains brought to Norfolk...all within the span of five weeks, documented. But I didn't bother to explain how I did it, to anybody. Now...I HAVE A FAVOR TO ASK OF YOU. I can't get the San Antonio papers here...and it is absolutely vital for my files to get DAILY CLIPPINGS from the San Antonio papers re the diphtheria epidemic, for the next 2-4 weeks. Will you do me this very great favor? Each day scan the papers for your news, and when you see anything at all about anyone being healed or getting well...anything at all about the diphtheria...clip it out and send it to me. I need these badly, Allan, for my files and my work to help people. Incidentally...I'm sorry I interrupted you last night..you were saying something happened that frightened your wife when she was talking to somebody about the Si's...wasn't that it? Please give me all of the details on that, okay? Your new friend.... Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. Wish you'd get some rich Texan to back me...subsidize my work...so that all year long I could help sick and crippled people, and divert hurricanes.

COAST Have we been sent--and ignored--messages from spacemen? Do the Saucer Intelligences control our weather, our civilization, our very lives with their incredibly advanced science? Has one man, Ted Owens, really been selected to "relay" their warnings and predictions? Do we have in our midst a # "SPOKESMAN" FOR THE UFO'S? By Otto O. Binder A letter to Pres. Richard M. Nixon, dated July 30, 1969, read in part: "The SIs told me that there is a plot already underway . . . has been completely planned . . . to kidnap you at your Key Biscayne residence (Florida). The 'bad guys' (Cubans) know how well protected you are . . . but they are going to strike at night, by water . . . with fast boats . . . with a highly skilled commando group of 50-100 men." The letter was signed, Ted Owens, PK Man. The Miami Herald on August 24, 1969--only three weeks later--carried the headline: SPY PLOT SHATTERS PROSPECTS FOR RENEWING U.S.-CUBA TIES. After revealing that Fidel Castro's U.N. diplomats doubled as spies, the text stated: "The U.S. public is likely to consider the recruitment of spies for a mission relating to Presidential security very much more seriously than guerrilla activities in a faraway land. There was, according to some reports, a James Bond touch to the recruitment plot . . . These reports claimed the plan was to study President Nixon's movements at his Key Biscayne home, using scuba divers as part of the surveillance team." On March 10, 1966, after years of drought in the Northeastern states, Ted Owens wrote to Pres. Lyndon Johnson: "I have some very good news: from the UFO Intelligences . . . to PK man . . . to you. The SIs have decided to end the entire drought on the East Coast. In the days, weeks, and months to come there will be rain, rain, rain . . . not just a little, not just 'above average,' but phenomenal rain . . ." From the Philadelphia Enquirer of July 22, 1967: "We were pleased to note . . . the admission by the United States Weather Bureau . . . that the drought which plagued the northeast corner of the country for the last six years, has ended." After citing that abnormal rains had been reported all through the northeast during the spring and early summer, it was stated that New York's reservoirs "could 22 - [ ] SAGA === Page 3 of 8 747 CRASHES BLACKOUT ASSINATED! 76'ers Lose Play-off INJURY CURSE HITS EAGLES === Page 4 of 8 hardly be fuller." The year 1967 was also called the "year that had no spring" because it rained so much. The sunny days of blossoming flowers and awakening life were rare. The rainy spring led to an even wetter summer, as if nature was making up for the six years of drought all in one year. On October 26, 1965, a telegram sent to George Clark, CIA, Washington, D.C., held this alarming statement: "A rare warning. They (the SIs) will unleash a terrible catastrophe within 10 days." Signed: "PK man" (Owens). A little more than 10 days passed without incident. But on November 9, 1965, the Big Blackout hit seven northeastern states and parts of Canada, plunging 30 million people into darkness. Without electrical power for up to 12 hours, the lights of entire cities flickered out, machines stopped, and TV and radio went off. Emergency measures were required to rescue people trapped in stalled elevators and subway trains. Hospitals switched on their own power generators for critical operations. Was this what the telegram meant? On the morning of November 14, 1969, the Apollo 12 was in the final stages of the countdown, ready for lift-off to man's second moon landing. North of Cape Kennedy, in Virginia Beach, Va., three prominent citizens (their signed and sworn affidavits are on file) heard Ted Owens state that lightning would strike either the pad or the spacecraft. Seconds after the giant rocket roared into the overcast sky, the control crew at Cape Kennedy was alarmed to see a sudden drop-off of telemetered data from the spacecraft. Through an alternate voice-circuit, astronaut Charles Conrad told how lights had gone out within the spacecraft, adding: "I don't know what happened. I'm not sure we didn't get hit by lightning." The PK man had done it again. More tragic was the prediction in a letter of March 4, 1968, sent by Ted Owens to government agencies, relaying a warning from the SIs of the "destruction of one or more highly-placed U.S. Government Officials --by assassination." Within 12 weeks, Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy were killed by assassins' bullets. The above are only a few cases out of more than 200 documented predictions and paranormal phenomena originated by Ted Owens. Now, just who is this Ted Owens, the PK Man? He is a tall, broad-shouldered man of 50, with Illustration by Hal Frenck 24 SAGA === Page 5 of 8 a receding hairline, thin lips, penetrating brown eyes, and an IQ of 150. But that doesn't tell you who or what he really is. Let the man who knows him best do that, Ted Owens himself: "I am the only human being alive able to communicate two ways with the SIs, and prove it. I'm the PK Man." The SIs are Saucer (or Space) Intelligences. PK stands for "psychokinesis," the power to manipulate, move, or otherwise affect physical objects, through mental forces alone. The two are related. Ted Owens claims he gets his PK powers from the SIs. It all began, says Owens, in 1965. In order to support his wife and three children, he had already "mastered 50 professions," a bewildering variety including lecturer, jazz drummer, magician, hypnotist, bodyguard, boxer, private investigator, office manager, fortune teller, teacher of auto suggestion, instructor in knife throwing, designer of jewelry, psychiatric secretary, lifeguard, and last (of this incomplete list) but hardly least--rainmaker. He cheerfully admits he has no academic degree or official standing in the "establishment", yet it's a matter of record that he has an IQ of 150 (genius starts at 140), and for two years worked with Prof. J.B. Rhine at Duke University in various ESP experiments. In a private gathering with Rhine and his wife, Louisa, plus friends, Owens startlingly demonstrated his PK powers by causing a scissors to whisk off a table and fly for several feet without being touched. It all really began on that day in 1965...but let Ted Owens himself describe it (from his book--How to Contact Space People--Saucerian Publications, 1969): "While living in Fort Worth, Tex., my daughter and I were driving in the country one night, when a cigar-shaped UFO suddenly appeared at our left over a field, and came floating toward our car making no noise. It had red, white, blue, and green colors flaming vividly from it. Its nose was tilted down towards the ground. As we watched, it approached close to our car, then instantly vanished, just like a light turned off." At first glance, this seems to merely be one of the many vivid, although common, saucer sightings. But it was far more than that for Ted Owens, as he wrote: "From that day on, my life changed radically...While in Fort Worth I gave my daughter, Lornie, several demonstrations of making lightning strike in certain areas during thundershowers. I was playfully experimenting with a theory I had on the practical application of PK or psychokinetic power, to nature's forces." Notice the word "playfully." Owens was soon shocked to discover that his "playing" was real after his family had moved to Phoenix, Ariz., which at that time was in the midst of a bad drought. The idea to experiment with ESP for weather control came to me again, so I gathered my children together and showed them how I would make it storm. It did, so intensely that the city was declared a disaster area." We can infer that Ted Owens was more amazed at his success than he admits, and a bit dubious of his presumed PK powers. "To make sure that it was I who had brought this about, and not just a coincidence, I announced to my family we would make a series of storms--and I wrote to the local papers to that effect." Owens was certainly gambling, for it would be the first publicized demonstration of his PK powers--if he had them. The results were astounding. (Continued on page 90) Ted Owens's past record--200 documented predictions and paranormal phenomena--is indisputable testimony of the man's unique role as a "go-between" for the Space Intelligences. For instance, in June 1967 he notified the U.S. Hurricane Center that the SI's would produce three simultaneous hurricanes. This had happened only four times before since 1886. In September 1967, Hurricanes Beulah, Chloe, and Doris were all active on the same weekend, something that the weather bureau admitted was "unprecedented" in modern times!

(Continued from page 25) "It produced eight terrible, rocking thun- derstorms complete with tremendous ligh- tning displays, within a period of three weeks." Owens has signed and notorized state- ments from his family that all this is true. Now all of Owens's doubts vanished. "Electrified by my success, and know- ing for certain that I had something, I wrote to government agencies and to many important people, but to no avail. No one would believe me. We moved then to Los Angeles, also in the middle of a drought, and I made some tremendous storms there." This too is fully docu- mented. Owens was careful to document his apparent PK feats by telling various offi- cials or prominent people what he pro- posed to do, then having them sign an affi- davit before or after the event occurred on schedule. Some of these will be quoted later, in connection with more important events. But gradually, there came a great- er revelation to Ted Owens. "Now, I figured that somehow I had managed to contact the essence of the in- telligence behind Nature herself." This seemed to be so, because soon after, when Hurricane Cleo began roaring off the coast of Florida, Owens excitedly drew a rough map and told his family he would "con- trol" the storm. He writes: "To the amazement of my family, the hurricare followed my map to the letter!" Now sure of himself, Owens then stuck his neck way out. In October 1966, he bol- dly announced to the Florida weather bu- reau exactly what he was going to do-"guide" Hurricane Inez north from Cuba instead of west as expected, then make it backtrack and hit the Florida coast when all the "experts" said it would go out to sea. Inez followed Owens's "schedule" to the hilt. Weathermen ad- mitted it was "unorthodox," almost im- possible. Even more "impertinent" was Owens' notice to the Chief of the U.S. Hurricane Center in June 1967, saying that the SI would produce three simultaneous hurri- canes. This had happened only four times before since 1886. In September of 1967, Hurricanes Beulah, Chloe, and Doris were all active on the same weekend, some- thing that the weather bureau admitted was "unprecedented" in modern times. Obviously, if he really had this power to turn and guide hurricanes, Owens could perform a great service for the country. He thereupon bombarded government offi- cials in Washington with letters, telling them what he could do and offering his "anti-disaster" powers. Some men, like Clark of the CIA and Eastwood of NASA saw him in person, and admitted a strong interest in his claims, but the regret was, as Owens puts it-"no action." If they didn't consider him a harmless crackpot (he does not resemble one), they were apparently hamstrung in their attempts to reach their superiors. Another big turn in Ted Owens's per- sonal life came when he discovered that he had not, by himself, created or guided (Continued on page 92) SAGA 90 === Page 7 of 8 (Continued from page 90) storms by some eerie contact with the "essence of the intelligence of Nature." It was some *other* intelligence, and he writes that, after moving to Washington, D.C., in 1965, "I discovered for the first time it was not Nature, but the UFO Intelligences who I had been contacting, and who had been guiding me." Owens had become aware of a "saucer flap" in the area, which was part of the great UFO wave of 1965-66. Then, quite unexpectedly, he received a message from the SIs telling him to inform the CIA that incredible magnetic phenomena would occur at the north and south poles. After sending this "prediction" to CIA man Clark, Owens wrote: "On July 8 (1965) all the newspapers carried a startling story: FLYING SAUCER IS REPORTED OVER TWO SOUTH POLE BASES! This huge disc-shaped UFO was clearly seen and photographed by many scientists of several nations, and they reported that it created powerful electromagnetic (per Owens's prediction) forces on their instruments. A bombshell burst in Ted Owens's mind . . . "I found out, with a jolt, that what I had been dealing with . . . were UFO Intelligences!" From then on, relates the PK Man, he was able to mentally "tune in" these Space Intelligences at any time. They arranged between them a series of phenomena whereby Owens would "predict" something and the SIs would make it come true. In some cases, they did this by beefing up his PK powers and letting him work the deed. In other cases, the SIs would do the job directly, keeping Owens informed. The result has been the 200-plus PK feats and incredible predictions--all apparently documented--that have flowed from Ted Owens during the past six years. Let's establish one thing here and now: Ted Owens is not a wild-eyed "contactee." He has never met an SI face to face nor has he traveled in their ships; he has not been whisked to their far off Utopian world nor has he eaten their exotic foods. Owens makes it quite plain, repeatedly, that he has only a *mental* contact with the SIs, that for some reason unknown even to Owens (as he himself freely admits) his brain is the ideal "receiving station" for SI telepathic messages, and most significantly, that he can "talk" directly to them on a *two-way* hookup. Owens believes that he is the only one on earth today with this remarkable ESP ability, and that in the past, perhaps only Edgar Cayce, Moses, and the wise men from some ancient civilizations had such direct SI contact. Ted Owens variously calls himself a "go-between" for the SIs in their dealings, or attempted dealings, with mankind; their "mouthpiece," their "front," their human "relay station" for messages. Owens constantly reiterates that he is not "responsible" for what the SIs do, even through his own PK powers, as they do all the planning and executing. Their purpose in all their paranormal doings, via Owens, is to *prove their presence* so that the authorities will listen to them (via Owens) and accept help. Whatever seeming "disasters" Ted Owens has been connected with, in the following accounts, the SIs claim they are here on earth to prevent a greater calamity. We will examine the motivations of the SIs more fully later on. Although Ted Owens has never been a UFOlogist or been active in the UFO field in any way, his special and personal relationship with the Saucer Intelligences has shed light on certain UFO phenomena in general. EM-effects. In answer to the question "Why do flying saucers affect cars and electrical instruments when they come close?," Owens says: "I'm glad you asked that, because the SIs just recently explained it to me . . . When they come into an area they want to investigate they throw out a 'net,' just like a fisherman throws his net overboard . . . They extend an electromagnetic net all around them that will trap and stop all power in that area in order to keep anybody from being able to communicate with humans outside the SI net, to radio for help, or to radio for airplane interference (from Air Force bases). . . Why don't Forest Rangers, who take care of our national forests, shoot bears and animals instead of tranquillizing them and tagging them? The SIs could actually destroy all humans in that area if they wanted, instead of throwing out a tranquillizing, power-stopping electromagnetic net." This implies (perhaps the most the SIs have revealed to Owens) that those landings which exhibit EM-effects are for the purpose of "tranquillizing" and "tagging" certain human specimens. This activity of course is not seen or reported in saucer sightings. We actually know little about the strange activities the SIs carry on when they mingle with humans. Falls from the sky. Though not always directly connected with sightings of UFOs, objects falling from the sky have been a riddle all through history. Huge falls of fish, toads, chunks of meat, blood--almost anything. Hundreds of these reports were collected by Charles Fort and these occurrences still continue in modern times. Sometimes they happen just after a UFO has flown over. And one particular substance--angel hair, a mass of odd fibers--has often been directly seen falling from a UFO. In answer to a question about a recent report of flesh and blood falling from the sky, and whether the SIs had anything to do with it, Owens provides a fascinating answer: "I don't think the flesh and blood fell from the sky. I think the flesh and blood fell out of the other dimension (from which the SIs come). In all the cases where I have read of a shower of fish or rocks falling from the sky, I believe it is caused by the SIs opening a crack in their dimension to let their craft in or out." Owens gives a more specific example in which he supposes that a UFO is rising out of the water and "they see people on the bank of the lake or the ocean, so they switch off into another dimension. But as they have come up out of the water, their power (EM field) might draw fish up with them, or rocks, or even people. When they switch on again into this (Earth) dimension (a moment later), in a different area than before, perhaps clear across the world, then those same fish or rocks or people--or parts of people--come back out with them and shower down." A rather gruesome explanation as to how flesh and blood might fall from the sky. Ruthless? Cruel? But if our spacecraft some day land on another world and the scheduled time for take-off comes, would the astronauts turn off their rockets just because a few natives or animals were within the blast area and might get burned to death? "Monster-men" and "Humanoids." Owens admitted he knew very little about these creatures so often seen during saucer landings. But he ventured this concept, which should interest Coral Lorenzen, who in one of her books advanced the same theory. She wrote that people saw humanoids or "hairy dwarfs" step out of saucers to collect plants or rocks. Owens said: "Yes, these are the SIs pets, which collect samples from earth for the SIs. Just as we use chimpanzees or porpoises, cats and dogs and horses, etc., to do the work for us. But for what purpose they want these samples, I don't really know." He says the SIs do not consult him on weighty matters, nor include him in master conferences concerning Earth's fate. His messages from them are strictly limited to the PK duties he is to perform. This should make most of us pause before calling this man a charlatan or self-deluded kook. Kooks and crackpots, as everyone knows, always place themselves one step below God (if they're modest) and share his omniscience. Various reporters, columnists, and other influential people (who will be named below) have said the PK Man's remarkable predictions *might* be coincidence or luck, but not likely. The facts seem to speak for themselves. Let's look at one of Owens's most sensational PK feats. Owens once said to a sports writer: "Sports is a superficial thing. But it's an excellent way to demonstrate the SIs power over a small group of men." Owens demonstrated the truth of his dictum by creating havoc with two Philadelphia sports teams, the Eagles of the National Football League and the 76'ers of pro basketball. Why he chose Philadelphia is a question that remains unanswered. He wrote to a dozen sports writers before the 1968 season opened, that he "would take the Eagles apart with PK," and absolutely crush their chances for the championship. He promised that the Eagles would have at least 20 injuries and would lose more games than they won. The Eagles had 30 injuries that season and lost 11 games in a row. That this was totally unexpected and almost weirdly unbelievable is seen from these expressions and quotes in the columns of sports writers: "Injury curse hits Eagles" . . . "Talk of jinxes and voodoo" . . . "The bewitched Eagles" . . . "Some whammy working on the team." Writer Stan Hochman wrote in the *Philadelphia Daily News*, September 30, 1968, after taking Owens to an Eagles' game, "I figured I'd pin him (Owens) down as to his claims of hexing the team. (Continued on page 94) 92 ☐ SAGA === Page 8 of 8 (Continued from page 92) When the Eagles scored and went ahead 3-0, Owens said, 'The SIs are going to have to get Woodeshick. Get him out of the game.'" Woodeshick was the team's star. A brawl began between two other players and "suddenly there was Woodeshick out there. . . They threw him out of the game for fighting, (italics added). . . The game even got stranger in the third quarter. . ." After a fumble, four Eagles were unable to pick up the ball and the Cowboys took possession. The Eagles lost the game. In another column Stan Hochman wrote: "For a while, Ted Owens was content to cause rainstorms where there had been no rain for six years. He did work up that satisfying power blackout in 1967 (June) when he snuffed out the light for the East Coast. But . . . nobody came clamoring after Ted Owens to buy his cloud-bursting, light-snuffing services." Hochman then recited the incredible roster of injuries, freak plays, and hard-luck breaks that overwhelmed the Eagles during the 1968 exhibition season. (They were to continue throughout the regular season). Without endorsing Ted Owens's claims, Hochman reiterated that everything that had happened to the Eagles was foretold by the PK Man and published. Paid attendance to the Eagles' games naturally fell off and Jerry Wolman the team's owner, filed bankruptcy. Was it all a fluke? Were the Eagles destined to flop on their faces in 1968 without the intervention of the PK Man's alleged powers? Owens tested himself again in pro-basketball. On April 23, 1968, a prominent lawyer signed a statement that Owens had predicted the Philadelphia 76'ers would lose their play-off games with the Boston Celtics, and that the 76'ers would miss their shots to an incredible degree. George Kiseda, sports writer: "76'ers shooting is off . . . They might as well have been trying to put a medicine ball in a teacup." Sam Jones of the Celtics was quoted as saying: "I don't think (our) defense is what's beaten them. They're just missing shots." Again a sports writer: "The 76'ers simply couldn't put the ball in the basket." The strange part was that the 76'ers were famed as a "sharp shooting" team. The payoff, as another sports writer put it: "They went blind from the floor . . . and suffered a 122-104 crushing. Back to Boston Wednesday and the blindness continued . . . They shot a pathetic 18-for-68 and the Celtics had little trouble in slipping away with a 114-106 win that evened it all at 3-3 (games)." The Celtics, the underdogs, went on to win the play-offs, the first team even to come from behind and win. Keeping all the above extraordinary factors in mind, either the laws of chance went completely haywire--or the awesome forces exerted by the PK Man fulfilled his threatening prophecy. Take your pick. Some of his more recent predictions have been startlingly fulfilled according to the available evidence. On February 10, 1970, Owens was interviewed by Lawrence Maddry of the Virginian-Pilot, Virginia Beach, Va. Picking a distant state, Owens predicted that a flying saucer would be sighted over the Brewer-Bangor area of Maine, and that some sort of power failure would occur at the same time. The deadline was two weeks but after only one week headlines from the Bangor area press screamed of a flying saucer sighting; there was also the story of one witnesses's car whose battery went dead. During the interview, Maddry had asked: "Well, Mr. Owens. What do you think will happen while you're here?" "I look for some kind of power failure," he said. When the reporter went out to start his car, he had a dead battery. Maddry's column dryly says--"Informed of this, Owens's eyes rolled slightly in their sockets . . . 'Hmm, they must be very close.'" In early January 1970 Owens handed a letter to a reporter stating that he would make one or more earthquakes for the reporter's paper on January 22nd. . . On that date earthquakes were reported in Berkeley, Calif., and in Japan. In fact, six earthquakes were reported from January 22nd to February 12th, which Owens explains as the SIs being unable to control the "echo" earthquakes that resulted from those of January 22nd. More impressive is Owens's bold statement to Lawrence Maddry and other reporters that the SIs would carry on a "private war" with Pan American Airways and that the Atlantic Ocean would become a "no man's land" for their giant 747 superliners. Two days later a Pan Am-747 left Puerto Rico, became disabled over the Atlantic and had to return to the airfield. The next day a 747 leaving London had to jettison fuel and also return to base. The following day a 747 crashed on the runway at Stockton, California. Is that guessing--or knowing? There is much more to tell about Ted Owens that could not be included here but will be presented in the next issue of SAGA. To be covered will be Owens's cases of PK healing, which are far fewer than those of the renowned Edgar Cayce but no less astounding. Also an intriguing explanation of who and what the SIs are, how many UFOs they have, how they operate, and what the fate of Earth will be if their (SIs) battle against the evil OIs (Other Intelligences) does not succeed. Then, there is the strange way the SIs communicate with Owens, involving "Tweeter and Twitter," two amazing SI creatures. Let us conclude with one more prediction by Ted Owens--which is really a message from the SIs as to their future plans. It should make all true UFOlogists sit up and take notice. The written-out and signed prediction is dated February 13, 1970, and was confirmed to me in another letter a week later. Here it is, verbatim: "This time the experiment (of the SIs) will not be confined to just one country . . . it will be a worldwide demonstration of UFO power! As of this date I am contacting the SIs and asking them to activate a special apparatus they have . . . to control weather . . . on a worldwide scale! The object: to prove the existence of the SIs, and their ability to receive communications from me. The objective: to cause violent weather worldwide, from this day on, throughout the entire summer coming up in 1970. "Not only that. But for the SIs 'signature' to this, they will appear in great numbers, here, there and everywhere. "In short, you are now going to be privy to one of the greatest shows ever put on, on this earth. And it will be put on by the UFO Intelligences, using their great powers. And these powers will issue forth from the Bermuda Triangle and the Devil's Triangle in the Pacific, I am positive." Well, there you have it. Ted Owens has more-or-less staked his reputation on this direct prediction to SAGA. If, when you read this, the world is being plagued by violent storms and disasters, and if there is also the greatest wave of UFO saucer sightings and landings in history, it could be coincidence. Or it could be the word of Ted Owens, PK Man, coming true.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 2** Mr. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CRS Norfolk, Virginia 23501 Dear Ted: Thank you for continuing to send copies of your letters to me. As you indicated in the July 27th letter, you have not heard from some of your leaders. I watched, with interest, the KC Chiefs and College All Stars Game, on last Friday night. I was interested, partly because of my little-boy liking for football and partly because of the questions regarding what might happen to the KC Chiefs. I noted that the KC chief's punt return runner was bothered twice--to the extent of a fumble--but I was not certain if I could see other evidences of fumbles, injuries, and other unusual events. One question which has bothered me and which may have no immediate answer, is this: If the SI's wish to demonstrate their abilities and powers, would it be easier for them to do this in their own way rather than to use your abilities and efforts in these activities? As you indicate, there is a plan for the SI's in regard to professional football, and yet it seems that their goals must be many and varied, since professional football would seem to be rather "low on the list" of their eventual plans. Despite the questions which come to me, I appreciate the effort, time, and money involved in your sending these letters and documents to me. Thank you very much. Best wishes to you. Sincerely, R. Leo Sprinkle, Ph.D. Counselor and Associate Professor of Counseling and Testing dn === **Page: 2 of 2** 27, 1970....TO ALL CONTRACTS (THE PRO FOOTBALL SEASON) that you have all been able to read Otto Binder's masterfully-written account of my activities in SAGA magazine, showing the depth and scope of my work...you will be better able to appreciate what I am doing now, as well as in the future. (Have just completed demonstrating five miracles in the span of five weeks! Documented.) Before proceeding further...Brad Steiger is doing a book which will be out in October...about the world's psychics...and there'll be some kind of article in it on me and my work. Mention this just in case you want to get a copy. If you want Brad's address to order a copy, just let me know. OKAY. Coming up this week...is the All-Star vs. Kansas City Chiefs game. Believe I told you, or most of you, some time ago...months...that I aimed to try to use PK force to beat the KC Chiefs (current world's pro champions) in this one game. This Friday night, when the game is on, I'll be using my mind...to exert PK force (in a thousand ways) against the Chiefs, to help the All-Stars beat them. (The kids, you know.) Am going to use the Soldier's Field stadium in Chicago...as a "demonstration model"! Will try to affect the power there...knock out lights, etc., and radio. My force, from my mind...could also affect the crowd...cause them to do strange things. I will give the All-Stars, with my mind...many, many opportunities to win the game. If they fail to take advantage of all those opportunities, then, of course, they will not win. The PK cannot pick up the ball and run with it. It can trip up the opponents and make them fumble and goof all over the place, which is what I'll try to make happen to the minor injuries to the Chiefs...because am going to block them this year from winning the World's Championship. I've already notified Hank Stram coach; the Phila. Eagles coach; the Dallas Cowboys coach; and the Miami Dolphins coach - that I will use my mind...to stop them from winning the World's Championship this year.) So you can observe with interest...what happens. The SI's coming pro season, to affect their own...place their controls, this coming pro season, to affect every pro game...to cause countless injuries to players, make walking hospitals out of all teams. Now, I am not doing this. They've told me, to pass this on. (Last year I controlled, successfully, just three pro teams, with my mind. My friend Larry Maddry says, to do the above mean things, their plan is absolutely brilliant. I know why they are doing it. You can just have told me, but they told me to tell you the way of it. see, the result. Players being carried off the field by the many. Later on, when the time is right, they will allow me to tell you the why of this that they are doing...and then you'll gasp at their infinite cleverness! Guess that is all for now. Be sure and see that game this Friday...and hope that the SI's "time window" is okay for it. If it happen, a weird game...and you'll probably see freakish things. Best to you all now...and write in sometime. You might be dead and buried, a lot of you, for all I know. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS, Norfolk, Va.

Dr Sprinkle Posted Aug 8, 1970 TJS Dear Larry: Since my lightning kicked the stuffings out of Virginia Beach last week, I've felt guilty...because you did do a column (though not the correct one the Si's wanted)...and now I feel wrong about it when I signal for rain. So...I've discontinued, days ago, any more signaling for rain and storms. There's bound to be an "echo effect"...that is, for several weeks the mechanism I set up will be in the process of phasing out...it doesn't just happen right now. But after that, it should be very nice here. At any rate I won't be kicking up any more lightning attacks and driving away the "grid" the same way. That's that, and I feel better about it. I like you and want to keep the faith with you. Interestingly...the Si's told me something new yesterday, in their mysterious and inimical way. It was to the R effect that they had trained me for long years...how to use ODE effects in literally hundreds of ways under varying conditions...and they asked me a question: do not lawyers study law for years to become lawyers? Do not doctors study medicine and surgery for years to become MD's? And at that point they withdrew from further communication. That can only have one meaning as I understand the Si's. They've been giving me what amounts to a "college education" in the use of their many powers, and ahead of me lies...some sort of "degree" evidently...i.e., I'll "graduate" and become "something". Of course I don't know what that "something" is. But one thing for sure. I'll be the only, single, graduate from this college, in the human race. If you aren't doing anything next Wednesday at noon...drop by 401, Plaza One, and let me treat you to an old-fashioned, delicious chicken and dumpling meal at the Puritan Restaurant that I told you about...or you could meet me there at noon. Either way. If you can make it, of course. Before closing...Dr. Simpson treated me, and the Si's, badly, when he refused to confirm the absolute fact that I called up a hurricane and guided it straight to target for him. It's documented. All right. Let's teach Dr. Simpson a lesson. Am going to call up two hurricanes to criss-cross lower Florida, making an "x" pattern (not necessarily two at the same time) either this season, or the next season. And guess what "target zero" will be! You've guessed it...the Hurricane Center (and Dr. Simpson's headquarters) at Miami University. Heh heh! Best to you and yours....

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 3** August 10, 1970 Dear Dr. Sprinkle: Thank you for your communication. If you watched the All Star game on TV...then you saw the close-up of the face of the Chief quarterback, Dawson, as he came off the field in the second half...baffled, puzzled, and disgusted. And well he should be. As leader of the greatest pro football team in the world...he'd been unable to score more than a single touchdown against a bunch of kids who had never played against pros in their lives. Moreover, he'd tried every pro trick in the book...including a fake kick...to score in the second half...and was unable to do so. This is PK working; pure and simple, and powerful. The fact that the Stars threw the ball to the Chiefs a couple of times for a couple of easy scores meant nothing except that the Stars were throwing away their PK advantage. Yes, the fumble by the Chiefs' runback expert, was dramatic...almost unbelievable the way it happened. The ball ran back to the eight yard line, I believe...where the Stars took it...and did their thing: threw away another chance they had to score by not scoring. I might add; when the game first came on the announcer on TV apologized for an upset in the TV communications, but said they'd finally gotten it corrected. Do not...judge my PK effectivity...on the basis of a single game which you do not understand fully. That was the fatal mistake made by the owners of the Eagles. I wrote Jerry Wolman that I could make his Eagles champs. His brother, Manny Wolman, who lives in Washington, D.C., came to Philadelphia to meet with me...and gave me a single game to prove my work. I went to the game, involving the Steelers...and blocked the Steelers most effectively -- but the Eagles threw away every PK chance like the Stars did; i.e., the Steelers would fumble inside their own 20...and the Eagles would fail to score. Time and again. And the Eagles lost. And Wolman laughed at me and dismissed me...so then I went to work in earnest to show Wolman, and the Eagles, just what I could do for them, over a period of time. When you received all my recent letters re lightning attacks, rainstorms, drought, Hurricane Becky's rainfall, and the EM UFO over Norfolk...your secretary should have collated it all in a package...gluing the newsclips in date order...so that you could easily see the absolutely miraculous series of events following my letter to you of June 16th! You ask why the Si's do not "do it themselves". I suppose I understand your question. If you've read my book, then you know that the Si's have told me that they worked with Moses, who, like Ezekiel, did approximately the same things I am doing. I.e., the "Lord" would tell them to tell the people, or the Pharaoh, something...he would...then the "Lord" would make it happen. All right. Why did not the "Lord" do it himself then? Instead of using Moses...or using Ezekiel...as the "Lord" spokesman? You ask a penetrating question...and that is the === **Page: 2 of 3** only answer that comes to my mind, offhand. If the Lord had the tremendous powers that were displayed when he took apart the Pharaoh and the Egyptians...the same powers the Si's seem to have...why, if that were the case, didn't he need Moses to go all through that rigamarole of speaking to the Pharaoh? Right? Why didn't the Lord just change the Pharaoh's mind...i.e., do it the Lord's way with the Lord's power. Why the middleman? Same with Ezekiel. I'll give you some food for thought...only by the Pharaoh refusing Moses...and rejecting the powers of the "Lord"... was the Lord given opportunity to display the various powers...plagues, rodent and insect infestations, and so on. If the Pharaoh had simply given in on Moses' first request then the people of that time, and the world later on, through the biblical record...would not know anything about the mysterious powers over and beyond the natural laws of humans. In the Si's book of rules...humans must choose to be helped by them...before they are allowed to help humans. It must be human choiceXXXXXXXXXX Incidentally...I have a complete file put together on my recent "multiple miracle"...can send it to you if you'll return it safely. But you have the same material there. Mine is just collated. This multiple miracle is perhaps the best thing I've ever done...there is no chance of "coincidence" involved...or precognition, for that matter...involving as it does a staggering variety of actions...rainstorm within a week, lightning attacks on specific areas, electromagnetic effect over Norfolk, hurricane brought into being and its rains used on Norfolk... all within the space of five weeks. Called in writing in advance. Really, no one could argue with that at all. So the football thing bothers you, eh? Heh heh. No doubt. You are like the human playing an ordinary game of chess... the Si's playing with you are, say, 25 to 50 moves ahead of you. The football thing seems trifling...and yet I think I can say, without giving the Si plan away...it's a major ploy with the Si's to obtain a major goal. Really big. Let me show you how they work: I've dealt with CIA and NASA for years...but nothing resulted. Both those agencies are, let's face it, corruptible. They almost have to be... politics to get things they want, like money for many activities and goals...power, etc. The one agency which is not corruptible is the FBI. Now, the Si's told me to write to the head of Pan Am and say they would bedevil the Pan Am 747's (this before they even flew regularly.) What happened? The Pan Am opener was a joke: lots of drum rolling in New York and the first plane...couldn't even get off the ground. So they used a substitute. It got to Europe, then all sorts of things went wrong. Shortly planes (747's still) that took off from France or Puerto Rico, had to turn back because of serious malfunctions. A 747 crashed on the runway on the west coast. So two FBI men came to see me about the matter. I explained, and they shook hands and left. THEN the Si's explained to ME that they had brought this about on purpose so that the FBI would get into the "Si action"...thus true === **Page: 3 of 3** and accurate reports...not biased by power politics or greedy money wants or anything else, as per CIA and NASA, ...would get to the top level of US government. From the FBI. This the SI's wanted. But they didn't tell me the details...until the entire thing had been accomplished, complete with the 747 incidents. They are incredibly clever. To get back to your question...which bothers you, as you say...the SI's ARE doing this in their own way... look at it this way...suppose you wanted to improve the dolphin strain. You isolated a huge herd of dolphins. Through a strange stroke of IMHO luck, you got hold of one dolphin which could actually understand you, and communicate back in turn. Now, how much easier to improve ALL the dolphins if you could pass information on to this one dolphin which, in turn, passed it on in dolphin language to all the other dolphins...which cannot communicate with you, nor you with them? I welcome all questions which come from you, for I know they are intelligent questions...no matter how skeptical you might be...for that is, after all, a scientific approach. Observation and experimentation, skeptically, yet with an open mind. After all...I've walked the lonely road long years, demonstrating all this...with nothing but skeptics around me. But since my paranormal work is valid, solid, concrete.... it makes no difference whatever. It is simply a matter of time...until this fact is realized by humans on a high level of authority...and the paranormal work then put to useful, practical purposes...instead of demonstrations to get attention and prove points. Patience, Leo (call me Ted)....you'll never in your life encounter anything bigger, or more important...to you or the human race...than what I'm trying to show you now and in the future. You won't believe that, but I know it to be quite true. Best wishes to you. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Va. 23514 P.S. Please xerox this and send copy to Dr. HYNEK, alias Allen.

You told him (approx.) that I'd sent you a whole lot of material...but nothing helpful. Nothing...helpful? I could not believe my ears! First...although I came down there personally and showed you my documented file...your letter to me, my answer to you, followed by the demonstration I promised you...a cane to Cape Kennedy...and you would not admit even this to Maddry. But...let's get to your statement about "nothing helpful" in my info to you. The season before Hurricane Camille...I wrote you and warned you...that the SI's were going to produce the "granddaddy of them all...biggest and most powerful hurricane ever to hit the U.S." It didn't hit that season...it hit the following season. Camille WAS the granddaddy of them all. How was my information helpful? If you'd believed me, as you should have by now...you'd have warned the people of the possibility of this, and they'd have been prepared. Also, in all that "unhelpful material" I carefully explained to you that all hurricanes then, and now, are SI canes...they are different than old, ordinary hurricanes. They are special, with special properties. Why was this information helpful? Because, if you'd have believed me...countless lives would have been saved and that's a fact. Before Camille struck, newspapers printed stories of people who were going to "ride out Camille...people announced they'd ride her out...because they'd been through hurricanes before." Before Celia just struck and people announced they'd ride her out...because they'd been through hurricanes before. Yes, sure, but NOT SI CANES. If they'd KNOWN these were special canes, with special properties, known about the SI's...and gotten the hell out of there! You, sir, have failed quite badly...in your duty...to the people of this country...to keep them informed, accurately and adequately. Also, in all that "unhelpful material" I offered to give you the services of my SI mind...the only one of its kind in the world...to AVERT hurricanes as they approached. If you'd believed me...I could have turned Camille back, and the same with Celia. You aren't a dumb man. I enjoyed talking with you. You are very intelligent. So that I KNOW and YOU KNOW that what I am saying is quite true. My documentation is quite powerful and good. And you damn well know that, too. But it isn't fair to the people whom you're supposed to be guarding with YOUR services...to let them keep on thinking the hurricanes that approach are ordinary hurricanes. You know that Celia was the only one of its kind ever; Camille was quite a fooler too, yes? Think about it a while.

Beach, 1 in N.C. 8/17/70 Riptide Alarm Spans Beaches BY MORRIS ROWE AND ETHEL STEADMAN Virginian-Pilot Staff Writers A treacherous undertow extending from Cape Hatteras to Ocean City, Md., was blamed for the drowning of two people Sunday, one in Virginia Beach and the other in Buxton, N.C. The Weather Bureau issued a dangerous riptide alarm for the 300-mile stretch of beaches shortly before noon Sunday and warned bathers and surfers to beware of the strong undertow at least through today. Virginia Beach Patrolman C. W. Cover said Julio Fajardo, 19, of Guatemala, disappeared about 11:30 a.m. despite rescue attempts by his brother and two lifeguards. Fajardo was swimming about 50 yards offshore at 34th Street when he got into trouble, Cover said. Fajardo's brother, Juan, of Arlington, grabbed a float and went to Julio's aid. Julio, Cover said, grabbed Juan around the neck and almost drowned him. Two lifeguards, John Havilmand and Joe Shepherd, then went to help the brothers but were able to save only Juan. The body had not been recovered Sunday night. The Fajardos came to Virginia Beach Sunday to spend the day, Cover said. The other drowning victim was a young woman vacationing with her husband on North Carolina's Outer Banks. Mrs. Susan Jones, 23, of Cincinnati, Ohio, drowned in rough surf behind the Cape Hatteras Court Motel in Buxton. A Coast Guard spokesman said she apparently was swimming alone. Witnesses reported seeing her swimming the back stroke before she disappeared. Her body was recovered by a Coast Guard amphibious vehicle beyond the breakers four minutes after rescue personnel arrived. Efforts to revive Mrs. Jones (See Riptide, Page A8) Witnesses indicated that the children apparently got out too far from shore and into water over their heads. Rescue workers recovered the body of Keith Piggott early in the evening, but had not found the other child's body by late Sunday night. Cover, a retired Navy man, said he had "never seen anything like this" in 20 years in the Navy. He quoted Hugh Kitchen, captain of the Virginia Beach Patrol, the lifeguard service, as saying Sunday's undertow was only the "fourth time in 40 years he had seen the water at Virginia Beach so treacherous." Riptides occur when water, piled onto a beach by waves or swells, rushes quickly back into the ocean. Sunday, swells of up to eight feet and tides up to six feet were reported in Virginia Beach. Cover put it this way: "There is a rough surf and strong undertow coming from the south-southeast. The waves come in, crash down on top of the water and immediately go back out, creating a suction effect that carries swimmers out with it." "Normally the waves come in, break and flow up on the beach. They weren't doing that. They'd just come, crash down and move back out." Police tried to close the entire oceanfront from Ft. Story to the North Carolina line at 12:30 p.m., but found that all they could do legally was issue warnings. Police, Coast Guardsmen, and National Park Service officials patrolled beaches from Fort Story to Cape Hatteras Sunday. Despite warnings, they reported, some swimmers entered the water. The Coast Guard dispatched the cutter Pt. Huron to cruise the Virginia capes to help boatmen in distress. Hundreds were reportedly experiencing difficulty returning to calm water, but no incidents were recorded. The weekend sea conditions apparently were a spinoff from the tropical disturbance, now dissipated, which Friday caused a delay in the departure of a shipload of nerve gas from Sunny Point, N.C. The Weather Bureau said the trough of low pressure caused squalls and generally rough weather offshore. This turbulence kicked up the waves and swells which produced the riptides. The tide Sunday was extremely low about 12:30 and although not directly related to the undertow situation, it did cause the grounding of the biggest charter fishing boat operating out of Rudee Inlet. Earl Paul, owner of the Sea Robin II, a 65-foot, $70,000 party boat, said he went aground in the Rudee Inlet channel at 12:40 as he tried to make it to dockside. A second boat, the Jo-Dee, owned by policeman J. T. Haley, came in behind Paul, but didn't have enough clearance around the Sea Robin II to make it through the channel. Paul said he was temporarily in danger of cracking up the boat against the rock jetties before he could tie the boat securely. Haley put a line from the Jo-Dee on the Sea Robin to help keep it from going onto the rocks. Paul said he didn't think his boat was damaged, and he was able to make it dockside at 3:30 p.m. Haley followed. The Sea Robin is new and started operating in Rudee in June. Paul said he ran aground every day for the first two weeks he had the boat in operation. Sunday he said he believed a northeaster earlier this week dumped about six inches of sand in the Rudee channel and that "six inches was our margin of safety," he said. Sam Scott, director of the Bureau of Tourism, whose job includes the development of Rudee Inlet, was called to the scene Sunday but declined to comment on the situation. Another spokesman Sunday said dredging probably will begin today to open the channel. confirmation on my "Multiple Miracle" of recent events, scientists, who are observing. (This is why the Si's are hostile to scientists.) They were in on it from the beginning.

After all...I can only send in my written predictions in advance, before in the scientists' offices to date-stamp the material, and collate their file for them...so that they can see the miracle that is happening. Ted Owens (PK Man) Ginena BOX 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia. === **Page: 2 of 2** JULY 18, 1970 D.S. Mr. Otto Binder A most interesting situation has arisen now. As a result of the SAGA article, I was fired from the office where I worked...because the most stupid boss there (called "Double Ugly" by the employees) has a deathly fear of UFO's...when he found out about the articles. As a result...I am now without a car, without money, without proper clothes...and age 50. You figure it out. I could make 20 to 30 thousand a year...you bet...with a bankroll to start it off. But have no bankroll. Anyway...enclosed find some clippings. Couldn't enclose the second clipping re the 74 mph storm yesterday, because of lack of funds to get downtown, and to get the necessary papers. Anyone else will have to check with you. Now, to business. And it is very, very interesting. As you know, I had put a "grid" over this area...and per my daily signals, per my training, they sent weekly tough thunderstorms into this Virginia Beach/Norfolk, Virginia Beach area. Then Larry Maddry wrote me and said, "I give the hell up...let's have an interview..." in order to get this area off the hook. He did the interview, and I stopped signaling the SI's. This per my agreement with Maddry and the newspaper. I explained to Maddry that the mechanism as set up (ODE mechanism) would not instantly go away...that it would have to be slowly phased out...taking some weeks. Sunday a tremendous, and rare, killer undertow hit Virginia Beach...which only two weeks ago was hit by a lightning attack like you've never seen...then Monday, a tremendous thunderstorm which flooded the area, WITH 74 MPH WINDS. (Otto...you've got clippings to cover both...as I explained above, the other contacts will have to do without the "74 mph storm"...reason as explained above.) You see...although the SI's have trained me rigorously...in over a hundred ways to USE ODE methods...PK methods...they haven't given me a single method of REMOVING the PK, or the ODE mechanism! And I thought this would interest you to know it. I had, of course, assumed that if I stopped my daily signals, then the phenomena would cease. But...that might not be the case. If ODE attacks keep on happening into September, then I'll have to contact my "professors" in the other dimension...and get some specialized training in how to remove this thing. In closing...I am deeply disappointed that I have been unable to get a written confirmation on my "Multiple Miracle" of recent date from my friendly scientists, who are observing. (This is why the SI's are hostile to scientists.) They were in on it from the beginning. If Dr. S, Dr. H, or Dr. F...would like to give me a detailed written (perhaps notarized) confirmation on my recent "Multiple Miracle"...which I am very proud of...it would help me, and the SI's, very very much. Of course, if they do not wish...it is their prerogative. Personally I feel it is a matter of truth over scientific "image". And what I have accomplished is TRUTH. After all...I can only send in my written predictions in advance, before the fact. I cannot be there in the scientists' offices to date-stamp the material, and collate their file for them...so that they can see the miracle that is happening.

By control, I mean...stop them from attaining the world Championship, which means taking their team apart as the season progresses, and causing them to lose games. Now, I didn't pick the patsies to control...the Jets, KC Chiefs and Cowboys are just about the best teams around in the world. So far in the season the Eagles have lost 2 (out of 3); the Jets have lost 2 (out of 3); the Cowboys have lost 2 (out of 2); and the Chiefs have lost 1 out of 3. This isn't bad for a PK start. But...the Miami Dolphins so far have eluded the PK. Ha ha ha. So naturally...I'll have to give a special demonstration on the Dolphins. Special PK will now be assigned to get rid of Griese and Waterfield, the two stars holding the team together. And that will be all of that. You can watch it happen, now.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 2** August 28, 1970 Mr. Allan Dale Avco Broadcasting Corporation Box 2641 San Antonio, Texas 78206 Dear Allan: It was a pleasure spending an hour talking with you over the phone last night. I hope...that it was up to your expectations. If your program last night with me...is like the others I've had...you'll be deluged with mail as a result of it. Please let me know if this is so. Reason. This letter is a letter of confirmation...that as of last night I "hit" San Antonio with various powers from another dimension. The only human being in this world able to do such a thing. The object: to heal the people now sick with diphtheria, in much quicker time than is normally possible (especially the children) and to kill and void the diphtheria germs in San Antonio completely, so that the epidemic which is now in effect there, vanishes quickly. The special powers which I sent...other-dimensional powers from another world than our own...should, besides accomplishing the above, create such a healing atmosphere in San Antonio...that many others who are sick and crippled, will get well (besides the diphtheria patients.) After you hung up last night, I communicated with the SI's instantly...told them the situation, and what was needed, then I released the mental connection and made a cup of coffee...right on schedule came their telepathic "capsule"...a whole lot of information given me telepathically in a split-second. I sat down and wrote it out...my instructions from them on how to proceed...then I proceeded. First, I visualized my "Angel Box"...a mental picture of a box with the lid opening, then out flows rainbow-like "things" I have named angels, because they are so dynamically healing. I sent 100 of them flowing into San Antonio, which I also pictured in my mind's eye. Thus, the darkened city of San Antonio was covered with 100 of these gorgeous rainbow creatures whose sole duty it is...is to heal and make happy. Next...I visualized the darkened area that was San Antonio at night...opened a mentally-pictured box called "Healing PK" and let the strange forms from it flow into San Antonio, and as they did they changed the darkened area from black into an x-ray white. Next in my mind I picked up "Nature's Telephone"...just like a phone booth...except that the phone is a direct line to Nature. And requested that Nature heal the sick in San Antonio and especially heal quickly the diphtheria-sick, and kill the diphtheria germs; and if Nature might not like to kill them, at least take them somewhere else other than San Antonio. Next I used my "disc method" on the hundreds or thousands of sick in San Antonio...simultaneously. I.e., instead of === **Page: 2 of 2** 2 charging and coding one disc for an individual...I charged and coded an entire city. Instead of a disc, a city. You see, with these intelligences...they think to infinity...their powers extend to infinity...it is as easy to charge and code an entire city as a small disc. I could charge and code the world, for that matter. But I will not, until some conditions are met. Next I used "time displacement"...by an ODE process I exchanged the year 1970 in San Antonio, for the year 1968 in San Antonio, (when there was no diptheria, you see?) So that, if that technique works...the diptheria epidemic that is going on now, will simply vanish and go back in time to the year 1968. Finally, in conclusion...I prayed to God, in the name of Jesus, for Him to heal the sick in San Antonio, and especially the little children. That's a "last but not least" thing, because once I merely prayed to God, and made Him a "deal"...and then experienced three consecutive miracles that you'd never believe sworn on a thousand Bibles. I know, and can testify, how very REAL God is and can be. This is the very first time...I've ever broken down and explained the way or the methods I've used...to approach an experiement of this sort, a SI experiment. I have just concluded here in Norfolk...a multiple-miracle, involving rainstorms called down onto a drought area; lightning attacks on a certain area; a UFO over Norfolk; a hurricane produced and its rains brought to Norfolk...all within the span of five weeks, documented. But I didn't bother to explain how I did it, to anybody. Now...I HAVE A FAVOR TO ASK OF YOU. I can't get the San Antonio papers here...and it is absolutely vital for my files to get DAILY CLIPPINGS from the San Antonio papers re the diptheria epidemic, for the next 2-4 weeks. Will you do me this very great favor? Each day scan the papers for your news, and when you see anything at all about anyone being healed or getting well...anything at all about the diptheria...clip it out and send it to me. I need these badly, Allan, for my files and my work to help people. Incidentally...I'm sorry I interrupted you last night..you were saying something happened that frightened your wife when she was talking to somebody about the SI's...wasn't that it? Please give me all of the details on that, okay? Your new friend.... Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 7134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. Wish you'd get some rich Texan to back me...subsidize my work...so that all year long I could help sick and crippled people, and divert hurricanes.

Hynek Dr. Leo Sprinkle Otto Binder Gray Barker Gentlemen: Some fascinating intelligence has just been passed on to me, and after reflecting as to who just might be the most interested in it...although you-all are not connected...you four came to mind. Although this is unbelievable...so are the things I've done...and this just might come in handy to you to know, some day. In the past hour...I had two phony phone calls. So obviously phony I had to laugh. But also I was puzzled. In the past four weeks...I've had dozens of "wrong number" phone calls, and obviously phony sales pitches. I know they were phony because I've been a salesman and know every inch of the ground. So...I communicated with Control, top Si, and asked what it was all about. This, following, is what Control told me: It is a crude system used by the OI's, or other intelligences (the bad UFO creatures the Si's have warned of, see my book) to attempt to "program" people... where the Si's can appear and vanish...meanwhile modifying a human brain without using a scalpel...the OI's use the cruder method of "capsule subliminal" suggestion. How it works: the OI's call their target. An entire, long message has been prepared in capsule form, and covered over with sound...an ordinary, short call to a "wrong number"...but long enough so that the suggestion is given through "subliminal sound" to the target. You are of course familiar with subliminal suggestion as sent through a TV set. This is a modification of same, sent through sound, in capsule form. This will explain why some people do strange things after they receive "wrong number" phone calls, or a sales pitch. Or perhaps drop dead from a heart attack. Won't work on me...for I have multiple-protection against the like. Won't tell what the protection is...but just one part of it is, of course, auto-hyp; another is anti-PK the Si's have built in. The less the OI's know, the better. They know that much about me anyway. I was going to include the government agencies in this..but they surely wouldn't grasp it, or understand...so am sending this on to you four, who can understand. Best. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens === **Filename: 7009 Nixon Letters.pdf** === Page 2 of 5 Dr. Sprinkle Sept. 22, 1970 Tom Cushman, Stan Hochman Sports Desk, Phila. Daily News, Philadelphia. Gentlemen: One of the greatest miracles of modern times is taking place... and taking place without anyone knowing about it, relatively speaking. Certainly the population of the U.S. knows nothing about it. But you gentlemen do. I wrote to you...before the pro football season started...and told you that I would "control" five, 5, pro football teams this year to be losers. The Jets, Chiefs, Eagles, Dolphins and Cowboys. Primary target: none of them to be able to win the World Championship later on (which is all of the marbles.) Secondary target: for them to lose as many games as possible. The miracle has developed right in front of your non-seeing eyes. The five teams have now played a total of 35, thirty-five games. (And I might mention that the Chiefs and Jets are two of THE toughest teams to beat in the U.S., both having been World's Champions these past two years.) The five teams have LOST a total of 22 out of 35, games by now. Won only 13. Last week I beat four, 4 of the five, 5. This week I beat four, 4 of the five, 5. This Sunday I beat the Kansas City Chiefs. Yesterday, next day, I beat the Jets. I'll tell you, I have the utmost respect for Namath...he's darn hard to beat. But the PK will do it just about every time. Tell you how good it worked...in the 4th quarter of the Jets game I wanted the Browns to hold on to their lead, and they were going to kick...so I instructed the PK force on the field to take the kick "for an extra long distance" down the field. The kick got off ordinarily. The Jet receiver signaled for a fair catch, and quite mysteriously the ball dipped to one side just as it reached him (you've never seen anything quite like it) and then bounded as if possessed for about 20-30 yards towards the Jets goal line, where it was downed on the 4. And that sank Namath and Company. That's how good the PK worked in last night's game. The announcer kept saying "how could this be? The Jets have 500 yards gained and the Browns only 180...yet the Browns are ahead?" Ha ha. Or "who ever heard of a team being penalized 164 yards, like the Jets are tonight?" (PK causes mistakes of all kinds, including penalties to get the PK'd team pushed back.) It's a downright rotten shame the people of the U.S. can't know what is going on, with this PK attack on five pro teams, and see it develop! One man controlling pro team after pro team with his mind! Owens Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 The PK effect, and game action, have measurable results. === **Filename: 7009 Nixon Letters.pdf** === Page 3 of 5 Dr. Sprinkle Sept. 25, 1970 President Nixon: In 1968...I wrote and warned of two things...and you can find this in the various government agencies' files of my writings: (1) Russia had perfected a long-range missile that could be fired...and would attack the U.S. from the direction of South America. I pointed out...that our missile defenses were set up in Alaska and along our north and eastern coasts... so what would happen if these new Russian missiles came from the direction of the South American countries? (At that time I didn't know anything about "orbital bombs"...which has just now become solid intelligence; just relatively recently now. (2) I warned...that the Russians had set up a dangerous (to the U.S.) missile-launching arrangement behind Cuba, using the body of Cuba as a shield from the U.S. (And not long after I wrote this warning, a U.S. warplane 'accidentally' got lost and went down back, behind Cuba. No doubt, to take a look. On the news tonight, two years later...hard intelligence that the US has just discovered that I was right two years ago. NOW THE REASON FOR THIS LETTER: Shame on you, and the U.S. Government! California has had no rain since April. It is desperate. 100 homes have been burned down. The State is in an emergency situation, the worst in 33 years, according to TV. Fires are breaking out all over. WHY HASN'T GOVERNOR REAGON, OR EVEN YOU OR THE GOVERNMENT, GOTTEN PK MAN OUT THERE...TO UNLEASH RAIN AND ABSOLUTELY DROWN OUT THE AREA? You certainly know enough by now...of my work...to have the utmost confidence in me. The only conceivable conclusion I can come to...is...the U.S. Government has the stupids. I can give California all the rain it can stand. All you have to do is ask me. (But doubtless you'd rather see California go up in smoke. Seriously.)

A sentence reads: "I have a hunch THE SI'S WILL STRIKE our east or west coast WITH A BIG EARTHQUAKE during the summer..." In this morning's Sunday paper: "QUAKES CAUSE BLAST, DAMAGE IN, NEAR L.A." Los Angeles (UPI): Southern California was shaken by a series of earthquakes Saturday that caused damage ranging from an explosion at an aircraft parts plant to broken windows and power failures..........The first quake was recorded at 7:14 a.m. PDT, but was felt by few persons. The more severe shock was felt at 7:31 a.m. Aftershocks followed. Buildings in downtown Los Angeles swayed with the rolling, 30-second quake. Homeowners with swimming pools said water poured over the edges. Power failures were reported over a wide area. A Los Angeles radio station, KMPC....was off the air for eight minutes because of power failure. Other stations in the Riverside-San Bernardino area also were off the air for brief periods of time. (NOTE: THIS HAPPENED EARLY SATURDAY. LAST NIGHT, SATURDAY NIGHT, I WAS WATCHING THE ARKANSAS-STANFORD COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAME ON TV...AND ALL THE POWER BLEW OUT AT THE STADIUM. HAPPENED JUST LIKE I TRIED TO MAKE IT HAPPEN AT THE ALL STAR GAME. FOR TEN MINUTES ALL TV AND RADIO WAS OFF COMPLETELY PLUS LIGHTS AT THE STADIUM. IN ARKANSAS, IT HAPPENED. QUITE A WAY FROM CALIFORNIA. BUT QUITE A COINCIDENCE.) To continue: The National Earthquake Information Center in Rockville, Maryland, placed the magnitude at 5.4 (on the Richter Scale). Now get this: "It felt like the building was coming down," a deputy at the Newhall substation said. "It was the eeriest thing I've ever felt around here." (This is, I think, an odd, strange remark to make concerning an earthquake.) That's one "prediction" come to pass. AND NOW YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO MOVE OFF OF THAT LETTER, OR EVEN THAT PAGE....FOR MY NEXT "PREDICTION" WHICH HAS COME TO PASS! Just drop down a few lines, and: "This coming fall...the Si's are going to "PK" all football stadiums where pro football teams will play...which will cause freak accidents and injuries...and have the effect of causing pro football teams to be regular traveling hospital wards." (Note that I stress THE SI'S are going to do this, not me. This is their idea and their execution. Virginian-Pilot, Tuesday, Sept. 8, 1970, "LIGHTNING KILLS 2 ON GRID TEAM" St. Petersburg, Fla. (AP) Lightning struck a high school football field Monday, killing two players in a huddle and injuring 20 other persons. "We had the offensive team in the huddle," Gibbs High School Coach Al Campbell said. "I heard a loud clapping noise and every body was knocked down -- players, coaches and everybody on the field -- was knocked down." ..........Police Sgt. Hink said the single bolt crashed down at the point where the boys were huddled. "Those that were hurt hurt the worst were in the huddle," he said. Campbell said, "There was no warning. We usually leave the field when it begins to lightning." Well, you say...a coincidence. Could happen anytime. Absolutely not a coincidence...and I can prove it was not a coincidence, but the Si's === **Filename: 7009 Nixon Letters.pdf** === Page 5 of 5 going about their work as I predicted they would in my letter of June 13! THE VERY NEXT DAY..........IN THE VERY SAME NEWSPAPER..........September 9, 1970, "TWO GRIDDERS KILLED BY LIGHTNING." (Is this just another article about the Florida football field hit by lightning? Read on.) Cleveland (AP) Two suburban Beachwood High School football players were killed Tuesday when struck by lightning as they were leaving the school practice field.......... A spokesman at Suburban Community Hospital said several other boys were knocked to the ground but were not injured seriously. Two young gridders were killed when struck by lightning Monday (yesterday) in St. Petersburg, Fla., as their team huddled on the practice field." (That's written right there in the article.) In other words..........two almost impossible, incredible events in two days' time.. both events happening on football fields. (Why high school football fields? Because I think the SI's are giving a second, deadly serious warning..........to the pro football players, and the thousands of people who will be in those football stadiums this year. This may be the reason the SI's knocked out all the power in the football stadium on the nationally-televised game last night between Arkansas and Stanford..........to dramatize their seriousness re their intent. Evidently they couldn't get through their time window for the All Star Game..........last night they could...) All right. This is quite a "scoop"..........to make a "double-hit" with predictions..........on the same page of a three-page letter three months ago. Both covering approx. the same point in time..........roughly a week. Am also including two letters I have received (please put them with my things to be returned much later when you finish reading them.) The one from Oregon..........reports that the writer..........well, "I myself and several others saw a drove of them (UFO's) here less than 1 mo. ago, and one later on." Thus, friend Otto, the SI's are definitely making appearances as they said they would. But we're hearing about it only by accident. Second letter from New York, writer says: "I have encouraged my family, relatives, associates and friends to read this (Saga) article. I don't know why I am doing this but I feel that it is one of those articles that must be read." Here again..........we have the phenomenon of the SI's telepathing people to buy Saga..........then when they buy Saga..........to spread the intelligence out to other people from the articles! Now, Otto, I don't like those football lightning strikes any more than you do. But keep in mind that Moses predicted the SI's/Lord would wipe out all newborn babies in Egypt! Which then occurred. And as it turned out, from the viewpoint of ages later..........it was in a "good cause" since the imprisoned people of Moses escaped from the bad and evil Pharoah.

"Only the top members of the SIs can construct a form with their intelligence and pour themselves into it." Where do they come from? "The SIs are from a different world entirely. They are from another dimension. But they have discovered how to switch from their dimension into ours!" 24 - [ ] SAGA === Page 5 of 9 The Big Blackout of the eastern U.S. on November 9, 1965... Hurricane Inez in 1966 that turned the "wrong way"... Three hurricanes simultaneously hitting the U.S. in 1967... The ending of the northeast's drought in 1967... The mysterious "hex" that in 1968 made the Philadelphia Eagles football team lose 12 out of 14 games... The lightning bolt that struck the Apollo 12 mooncraft in December 1969... These and 200 other headline events (SAGA, August 1970), are claimed as PK (psychokinesis) feats performed by one man--Ted Owens--with the aid of the SI (Space Intelligences). A bold statement, yet Ted Owens has impressive documentation. Signed statements of government officials, lawyers, scientists, radio interviewers, sports writers, and many others all attest that Owens predicted those events. He was able to predict them because, he claims, the SIs had given him enormous PK powers. Whether you believe him or not, it would be difficult to explain all those sworn affidavits. For a man to guess right so many times is equally unbelievable. Keeping a careful account, Ted Owens states that 85 percent of his predictions have been fulfilled. He admits there are misses, for not even the SIs with their uncanny powers can always whip up a hurricane or earthquake on schedule. But the record is remarkable; over 200 fulfilled prophecies in five years, from 1965 to date. The PK Man's predictions have ranged far and wide, covering almost every category of world event--sneak attacks against U.S. aircraft carriers in Vietnam, the loss of three submarines in one year, the series of earthquakes that jolted California in late 1969, the failure of various Ranger moon probes, the unexplained crashes of military planes, a violent lightning storm in 1966... on and on the list goes. These calamitous events--at least those for which Ted and the SIs are responsible--supposedly have a "good purpose," as will be seen later. But first, let's get further insight into the life and mind of Ted Owens. In answer to the question, "Why did the SIs contact you and you only?" Owens replies: "As I have gotten it from them rather spottily, they had worked with me since early childhood, attempting to get through to me. As I grew up they kept trying. I worked for Dr. Rhine at Duke (Univ.) in the ESP experimentation there and was found to be loaded with paranormal ability... But the SIs still hadn't gotten through to me. It seems to have been a combination of the close approach of their UFO to our car in Fort Worth in early 1965 (SAGA, July 1970), and then my work in hypnosis and allied fields... that finally made it possible for them to get through to me." He goes on to explain the actual method of contact. "Now in 1965, when I discovered it was actually UFOs that I was dealing with, and not 'Nature,' the UFOs gave me a system to use to call upon them, just as if I'd pick up a phone and talk. They showed me, in my mind's eye, a small chamber. Inside the chamber were two small creatures, resembling grasshoppers, standing on two legs. These creatures looked down into a large round oval machine. In it they could see me. If I talked, they heard the sound, but the machine quickly turned the sound into symbols, and the symbols into very high-frequency sound that they could understand... For very important communications I was to appear on the screen and ask for 'Control,' and their Higher Intelligence would appear and listen to me." Owens bestowed on the two little creatures his own names--Twitter and Tweeter. But were they the actual physical form of the SIs? "No," says Owens, "the SIs are pure energy and are invisible. Only the top members of the SIs can construct a form with their intelligence and pour themselves into it. Twitter and Tweeter are merely convenient bodies for handling their apparatus." Where do the SIs come from? "The SIs are from a different world entirely. They are from another dimension. But they have discovered how to switch from their dimension into our dimension." Questioned closely, Owens shrugs and confesses he doesn't know anything more about their world. They have revealed very little to him, which is quite different from the all-inclusive knowledge most contactees claim to have. "They don't confide things like that. They just give me (Continued on page 52) Owens' plastic disk has "cured" sick people. SAGA - [ ] 25 === Page 6 of 9 UFO MISSION TO EARTH (Continued from page 25) assignments and training, all pointing at certain objectives." What are those objectives? Owens's voice turns grim and earnest as he gives this brief, chilling answer: "'The SIs will allow Russia and China to destroy us (the U.S.), if we don't cooperate with the SIs. Think of the world as a large field on a farm. If one section of the field won't grow crops, or be productive, then the farmer will just quit planting it and let it go to rot. And that's what will happen to the U.S. if we don't pay attention to the SIs." Owens has reiterated that all the earthquakes, hurricanes, crashing planes, and other events caused by the Owens-SI team via PK, are only spectacular attempts to attract attention to the SIs and prove they exist. And that Owens has been chosen as their sole "emissary" to make formal contact with earth authorities. Their lack of physical form and the handicaps of their alien origin preclude their ever landing and appearing in person on earth. Hence their "training" of Ted Owens and their gift to him of PK power to perform "miracles" of nature is in the hope of getting the U.S. government to accept their presence, and proffered help. So says Ted Owens. When asked why the SIs want to help or "guide" the U.S. in particular, Owens says: "The SIs are trying to put the world in balance by cancelling out wars, hate, killing, upset weather conditions, drought, famine, etc. They can do all these things easily!" And if they can lend Owens the PK powers that created certain hurricanes and earthquakes, caused vast power blackouts, and ended a six-year drought, they can use these powers in reverse without question. What they can unleash, they can also control. "But first," continues Owens, "they want a base to work from, and they chose the United States, perhaps because it is the most influential nation on earth." Another question really stumped Owens: "Just why have the SIs come here to help earth in the first place?" His candid answer: "I don't know. I haven't the foggiest notion of why. I have wondered about that myself." Conversely, a bleak future is painted for the U.S. if it continues to ignore the SIs. "Russia and China will combine to attack America and destroy it with both nuclear and biological weapons. The Asian race will become the main power of the world after the U.S. is destroyed, and the black people (of Africa) will become the second largest power." Eventually, Owens finishes, "the whites will practically be nonexistent." Just how the SIs intend to change this course Owens does not know. His only "job" is to keep performing his sensational PK acts, obtain the ear of the government, introduce them to the Space Intelligences by proxy, and then they will tell the U.S. what to do to avoid the above holocaust. This is the "mission" of Ted Owens. The sincerity of his devotion to this cause is beyond question. He has gained no wealth from his "crusade" and in fact, is today in debt with no possessions or home. "Broke at 50," as he puts it. For six years, since 1965, he has wandered with his family to several temporary locations, taking any job he could find. Any confidence man would have given up this poor-paying "racket" long ago, which has netted Owens nothing. One can only assume that Ted Owens, keeping at it doggedly for six years, has no ulterior motives but means exactly what he says. During his life, affluence and Ted Owens never got together. He has two children from a former marriage--Lornie and Rick--but after a divorce, they went with his ex-wife who offered to finance them through college, where they are today. Owens now lives with his second wife and their son, Beau, age 8. His family is one of his strongest supporters. There are signed and notorized statements from his older children on how he drew a map to "guide" a hurricane, or on how he made a prediction on a given date that later hit the headlines when it materialized. One of his most amazing prophecies came in a letter to Pres. Lyndon B. Johnson on May 10, 1966: "The SIs warn that a man is planning to load a small plane with high-explosives, and send the plane, kamikaze style, into the White House or the Johnson Ranch (in Texas). This man has planned this for a long while . . . put it off once, but now is getting 'worked up' to do it. Of course he'll be killed but he doesn't care. Believe he's an ex-Army flyer . . . service man, anyway." Signed, Ted Owens. One can imagine the reception this got from Presidential aides. Utterly preposterous! No President-hater, no matter how insane, would pull that ridiculous manner of assassination. It couldn't happen in real life. The New York Times, May 4, 1967: "FLIER DENIED BAIL ON THREAT OF CRASHING INTO THE WHITE HOUSE. A former Air Force pilot . . . has been jailed pending sentence because of an alleged threat to plunge a plane into the White House . . ." Somehow, the SIs had read this maniac's innermost mind a year before, and knew that someday he would get up the nerve to commit his spectacular deed. It is doubtful that any other so-called "seer" predicted this unlikely plot, except Ted Owens. Ted Owens still has fascinating revelations about the Space Intelligences: for instance, how they produce earthquakes. Owens reveals that: "There are four great SI craft positioned around our globe. It is these four craft that I signal when I wish to give a demonstration of earthquakes all around the world, as I have done twice for government agencies and scientists." Asking how big those four UFO's are, you get a staggering answer: "These craft are so big, we couldn't even imagine their size. Each one could be bigger than our earth itself." Yet, being from another dimension, they are completely invisible. Owens explains vaguely that the giant UFOs send down much smaller craft, which are the familiar saucers of sighting reports and which have somehow gained visibility. As to just how they create earthquakes: "After I signaled them, they (the four big UFOs) emitted an electromagnetic effect that slightly affected the rate of the earth's spin or movement, causing earthquakes, floods, and unusual weather." Again rather vague, but if true it means the four SI craft must have a colossal storehouse of electromagnetic power, able to grip the whole planet and give it a slight wrench. Ted Owens must feel like a man in a goldfish bowl, or like an insect under a microscope, because for the past six years: "They have used a monitor on me wherever I go. It is like a beam of light which extends from me through metal, rock, or any material, high up into the sky from wherever I happen to be--in a deep cave underground or on top of a skyscraper, it would make no difference." The SIs Owens says, have often, told him his life is "very important" for their purposes and that they are thus keeping constant watch on him and lending him special PK powers when there is danger. Owens then states that his life has been endangered at least 15 times, and recites several cases, some of which cannot be documented. As a young man, Owens was in Durham, N.C., with a girl friend when six toughs approached, with knives. They cornered the pair on a side street with assault and rape in mind. Owens had a .25 automatic in his pocket but merely withdrew it and handed it to the girl as a last-ditch defense. "Then," says Owens, "I walked right down the street at the gang coming toward us. I stared them all in the eyes 52 - [ ] SAGA === Page 7 of 9 and they froze. I grabbed the ringleader by his coat and told him to take his gang and get away from us. And that is just what they did." On other occasions the same thing happened, Owens staring and some mysterious power making a would-be assaulter "freeze" and lose all desire to inflict harm or death. One of the most dramatic cases, and this one fully attested to in writing by his daughter, Lornie, occurred when Owens and Lornie were walking along a street in San Antonio, Tex. Suddenly, a man they had never met rushed at them with a long knife, yelling insanely that he was going to kill them. Owens repeats, rather monotonously: "I stared into his eyes. Suddenly he dropped the knife, got down on his knees, and began to pat Lornie on the head, apologizing for threatening us." Since we have his family's sworn statement that this attack was not a figment of Owens's imagination, how do we explain his extraordinary power to render his assailants helpless without laying a hand on them. If it isn't PK power, *what is it?* If the SIs are keeping watch on him, they are doing a darn good job. Ted Owens also makes the enigmatic statement that he is *part* SI. Then he adds, "Somehow, as time went by, they changed the right lobe of my brain so that I could get to this point (to two-way ESP) with them, because the ordinary human brain will not pick up or send back messages to the SIs." If his brain has been modified or altered to accept SI communications, then technically he is part SI. Furthermore, says Owens, "The ordinary human brain will break down under SI communications . . . The other human beings (they attempted to work with) always had a heart attack or brain hemorrhage or broke down completely in some way. *That is why I am so rare.*" In a sense, Owens is then a "tailor-made" human receiver, deliberately fashioned in the mental sense into the most powerful PK mind living today. This brings us to another amazing facet of Ted Owens's powers--healing. Though he disclaims being another Edgar Cayce, he has to a limited degree been able to perform certain "miracle cures." In one case, a young girl savagely beaten by a street gang suffered a skull fracture and doctors gave her only hours to live. Informed by a friend, Owens went to the hospital and obtained permission to see the patient. Though he does not know just how he did it, Owens believes he "radiated" PK healing power so that the girl survived. The attendant doctors shook their heads and called it a "miracle" beyond medical science. To spread whatever he could of his healing powers among the people, Owens had red plastic medallions made; on them were stamped his private "emblem"--a circle with a line through it and a lightning bolt below. By fingering it before mailing it out, Owens believes he "charges" it with PK power that will work beneficially for the recipient. Owens has sent hundreds of these, *without charge* to whoever requests them. He says, "This is not a commercial enterprise, but an expression of compassion by the SIs for humans, and of their love and affection for us." Do these "charged" disks have any hidden powers? Some of the letters Owens has received may provide the best answer. Mrs. B. C. of Willowdale, Ontario, Canada, writing of her daughter: "Dr. M. (surgeon) had six or seven doctors with him when he operated on Ruth. Cancer was found in tumors which had spread all through her right (side) up into each lung." The doctor added that if she survived the operation, she might live up to six months, no more. Mrs. B. C.'s letter goes on: "Immediately after she'd been operated on, a disk was sent by you (Owens) and placed on Ruth." Almost a year later doctors reviewed her case and "they can't understand how she can still be alive plus the success they are having with her treatments." One item does not prove the case, however. Mrs. E. B. of Lockwood, Mo. "My husband . . . seems almost entirely free of the terrible neck pains he had had for two years. They were driving him insane." Her husband kept his disk with him day and night. G. B., a woman in Cincinnati, Ohio, who has a PK disk: "My doctor told me today that my back seemed straight. He was a bit puzzled because he did say he SAGA - [ ] 53 === Page 8 of 9 could not straighten it." (Italics added.) Mrs. L. W., of Canoga Park, Calif., a lady whose hands were almost completely crippled by painful arthritis: "As you will notice I am able to write this letter with my hands . . . I am even able to use the sewing machine to make clothes for my family. This is how much I have improved . . . Most of the time this past month I have been free of pain also. . ." The PK disk's power is not limited solely to "faith cures." From Kodiak, Alaska, a woman writes about her husband's luck in fishing for queen crabs: "He put his pots out in one spot in Alitak Bay . . . He only had 13 pots that first time and in seven fishing days he brought in a full load of tanner (queen) crabs, which is real good. Here is the oddest part of it; a whole flock of boats moved in on him, had him surrounded with their buoys and pots. They didn't do any good at all and they picked up their pots and left . . . But he (her husband) got another boatload of 7,500 crabs. He went back and got his third load of crabs from the same spot, while these other boats got so few they picked up their pots and left. . ." Her husband had been carrying the PK disk. There is yet another angle to this story that makes it even more fantastic. This same woman had first written to Ted Owens, on October 30, 1967, requesting a PK-disk, with this explanation: "My husband's problem is this: in 1964 we lost two commercial fishing boats . . . in the Alaskan Good Friday earthquake. We had to get an SBA loan and went $82,000 in debt . . . With the high cost of living in Alaska, we are very much afraid we are going to have our (new) boat repossessed, as my husband is a crab fisherman and just can't make it unless he *catches more crabs*." Now reread the woman's first letter and you will see *why* her husband miraculously caught crabs where nobody else could. Fishing luck, of course, is notoriously quixotic, but the kind of luck that fisherman had is incredible! Unless it was more than luck. One more medical case is startling, according to this note from a woman in Pensacola, Fla.: "Concerning my brother . . . being mentally ill and had been for 15 years . . . Don't know what has happened but his mind is OK now and he is home from the hospital." She had left a PK disk with him a month before. In the stack of letters Ted Owens has received from grateful people to whom he sent his PK disk, these phrases appear over and over--"The doctor was amazed," . . . "The doctor couldn't believe it," . . . "The doctor acted stunned." However, Ted Owens is not touting himself as a miracle healer nor usurping the province of doctors. Far from it. He states firmly that: "I warn all that I work with, to work closely with their doctors, dentists, etc., the PK methods certainly do not replace our human medicine and surgery. . . I explain carefully the UFO intelligences cannot pull teeth, or remove an infected appendix . . . OD (Other Dimensional) methods are to be used, with the doctor's permission, only after all regular medicine and surgery have failed." Owens is also careful not to claim godlike powers for the SIs, although he quickly adds that "the SIs are doing God's work." Owens has pondered the past six astounding years of his life and has come to the conclusion that there are certain parallels between him and Biblical people--notably Moses and Ezekiel, who both performed "miracles." How? With the same *PK powers* that were bestowed upon Owens. Certainly the ability to conjure up lightning storms, turn hurricanes, and heal the sick--if Owens really has this ability--is comparable to Moses making water pour from a rock, or Ezekiel summoning a strange mechanical "whirlwind" to carry him away--which was undoubtedly a UFO! Hence the strong linkage Ted Owens finds between God, the Space Intelligences, and his own superhuman PK powers. Not that he knows all the answers, which he readily admits. Another reason the SIs may be here as "watchdogs" of earth is because of the OIs--Other Intelligences. Owens cannot elaborate on them, except to say the OIs are "evil" as compared to the SIs. When asked if the SIs and OIs are using earth as a battleground, Owens says, "I think it's more like a game of chess between the *several* kinds of Space Intelligences, and we are the chess pieces. They (the SIs and OIs) are too advanced to shoot at each other, as we do. They think in such dimensions, and at such depths, that it would be beyond our tiny, limited minds to even imagine." For this reason Ted Owens tried to obtain $5,000 in 1968 to have a free year in which to contact the SIs more closely and find out all those answers. Owens was thwarted in gaining the backing of the U.S. government. He had planned it this way: "The U.S. would send me to Europe with one Special Forces man, as a bodyguard and witness. I would be guided by the SIs to select an old deserted castle in an isolated location. I would live there for one year. Sometime during that time the SIs would appear to me for a face-to-face meeting, and arrange a way to meet with the President (of the U.S.)." Owens is serious about this being his "mission," however, he has given the government an alternative. He recently wrote President Nixon and offered to spend 30 days in the Bermuda Triangle, if they would furnish him with a comfortable boat plus a submarine nearby to observe. He would also spend 30 days in the Devil's Triangle near Japan. Owens said his mission would be to make contact with the SIs. The PK man would not guarantee results but said the SIs might very well come to him in either or both triangles because he is the only human being who can "call" them. This raises the point that the SIs, as Owens believes, have been training him all along. In a letter to me, Owens states: "Yesterday I awoke, and realized that the SIs had been at work on my brain (during sleep). This time they have given me the key to something that has been puzzling me for years. Namely, what has motivated me to learn 50 professions? . . . "Each profession demanded that I learn a 'language'. With Gregg shorthand (my speed was 200 words per minute) I had to learn all the symbols. . ." He goes on to list how typing forced him to learn the keyboard system . . . As a steel mill inspector he had to learn calibration and other measurements . . . In teaching autohypnosis, it was the symbology of the Brain Wave Synchronizer . . . and so on. "So," concludes Owens, "when it came to the SIs getting a breakthrough into my mind . . . teaching me their OD (Other Dimensional) symbols . . . I had already developed a strong 'muscle,' so to speak, with which to receive their information." This reminds one of the rigorous training astronauts go through in order to "think space," which, with its zero-G and third-law-of-motion characteristics is entirely different from "thinking earth." Without intensive training, no man could ever have mastered the semi-computerized thought processes necessary to fly a ship into space. Similarly, no human mind could possibly grasp the intricate symbology of (Continued on page 56) === Page 9 of 9 (Continued from page 54) pure-energy intelligences from another dimension unless it was thoroughly programmed, like the mind of Ted Owens. Logical, understandable, rational, Owens's whole approach to the mystery in which he finds himself is scientific and not mystical as with the contactees. This is clearly seen in Ted Owens' own "SI Glossary" in which he defines various ODEs (Other Dimensional Effects): Nature's Mailbox--A visual-image "mailbox" into which he puts "letters" to be acted upon--as when requesting a storm. Angel Box--ODE container which releases good intelligences which can be assigned to sick or hurt persons (apparently the mechanism by which the PK-disks work). PK Bubble--An ODE force placed around a person, thing, city, or even the U.S., to perform a specific task (which may be one clue to how Owens manipulates his PK powers) White Box, Rainbow Door, Messenger Units, Sound Force PK, Weight PK, Electromagnetic Bubble, Laser PK, (other ODEs based on scientific extrapolations of known forces and energies.) Let us conclude with some more sensational PK feats and fulfilled predictions made by Ted Owens in the past six years, which far exceed the accomplishments of such nationally known psychics as Jean Dixon and Peter Hurkos. On June 1, 1966, in a written notice to the CIA and other agencies, Ted Owens predicted an early hurricane, within days, long before the traditional hurricane season. Loud laughter from the hurricane center must have turned into gasps when on June 7th, Hurricane Alma rose in wrath, the earliest Atlantic hurricane ever to hit the U.S. mainland. One June 18, 1966, Owens' predicted that violent electrical storms would soon strike the Philadelphia area. By the end of June and into July, that city was bombarded by electrical bolts seldom seen before. During this period, with a group of friends, Owens pointed and said a lightning flash would strike over a certain building--this happened within minutes. Owens made it strike there, he claims. It will definitely interest UFOlogists to know that the following "classic" sightings of saucers and occupants were predicted in advance by Ted Owens, and in some cases "ordered" by him. •The "Michigan Monster" case of August 1966, in Monroe County, where Christine Van Acker, a 17-year-old girl and her mother came upon a hairy, black, seven-foot monster. •The "meteor" of August 19, 1966, which was so bright that it cast shadows as it flashed across the skies over Pennsylvania and Ohio. Puzzled astronomers admitted it was too slow for a genuine meteor. It was, says Owens, a spectacular UFO that he had "promised" would manifest itself over Pennsylvania. •The semi-tragic tale of the saucer named "Floyd"--a police code name. In April 1966, State Police officer Dale Spaur and several other troopers pursued a low-flying saucer from the state of Ohio into Pennsylvania, without ever catching up. The sighting came to haunt Dale Spaur to the point where he lost his job and his wife. He became a broken-down hermit because he, or one of the other policemen, had fired at the UFO, which Ted Owens had prophesied would mean the police would be "without one officer." •The "Penninsula Monster" at Erie, Pa., on July 31, 1966, where Betty Jean Klem and three other hysterical teen-age friends in a car were accosted by a hulking gorilla-like creature, which later flew off in a saucer. But of course Ted Owens' most recent and significant prediction, as of February 1970 (SAGA, July 1970) was that the summer of 1970 would usher in the greatest UFO wave in history as saucers would appear in "great numbers everywhere on earth." Is that worldwide saucer flap going on right now? We might also ask that if the flap is going on is it being successfully smothered by the news blackout that has been clamped on all UFO reports since the Condon Report of 1969? If so, Ted Owens today is a frustrated prophet indeed. Finally, here are two more predictions by Ted Owens, which, if they haven't already been fulfilled, will be in a short time. Owens is confident they will. Prediction 1) There is a "terrible threat" to our forces in or near Vietnam. Owens says the SIs showed him the symbolical image of a black triangular mass silently converging there, either through the air or the water. He is not clear as to the exact nature of the threat but it's a "blockbuster force" and will be a major headline about Vietnam. Prediction 2) That Nigeria, because of its inhuman treatment of the conquered Biafrans after their war ceased, will suffer greatly unless they change their policy. "The long unlimited hand of the UFO intelligences," wrote Owens in a letter to President Nixon, "will now reach out and strike at the Nigerian government and teach them a lesson they will never forget. From now on, Nigeria is a marked country, until the present government and all the people responsible for the miseries of the Biafran innocents have been struck down with illness and death and misery themselves." Owens seems to imply that something akin to the "seven plagues" that struck Egypt in Biblical times will scourge the Nigerians. It is a matter of record that as of mid-February, a deadly new virus struck Nigeria only, with a frightful fatality rate of 50 percent. Three out of five medical lab technicians sent by the U.S. died promptly of this Lassa Fever, as it is called, and medical authorities called it an emergency. "The greatest mystery," to quote the The New York Times, "is where the disease came from." An SI warning to the U.S. about trouble in Vietnam (not caused by the SIs), and an SI vengeance on Nigerian cruelty. So says Ted Owens, mouthpiece of the SIs. ★THE END Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Hynek Mr. DiMaggio, SS Dr. Leo Sprinkle Otto Binder Gray Barker Gentlemen: Some fascinating intelligence has just been passed on to me, and after reflecting as to who just might be the most interested in it...although you-all are not connected...you four came to mind. Although this is unbelievable...so are the things I've done...and this just might come in handy to you to know, some day. In the past hour...I had two phony phone calls. So obviously phony I had to laugh. But also I was puzzled. In the past four weeks...I've had dozens of "wrong number" phone calls, and obviously phony sales pitches. I know they were phony because I've been a salesman and know every inch of the ground. So...I communicated with Control, top Si, and asked what it was all about. This, following, is what Control told me: It is a crude system used by the OI's, or other intelligences (the bad UFO creatures the Si's have warned of, see my book) to attempt to "program" people...where the Si's can appear and vanish...meanwhile modifying a human brain without using a scalpel...the OI's use the cruder method of "capsule subliminal" suggestion. How it works: the OI's call their target. An entire, long message has been prepared in capsule form, and covered over with sound...an ordinary, short call to a "wrong number"...but long enough so that the suggestion is given through "subliminal sound" to the target. You are of course familiar with subliminal suggestion as sent through a TV set. This is a modification of same, sent through sound, in capsule form. This will explain why some people do strange things after they receive "wrong number" phone calls, or a sales pitch. Or perhaps drop dead from a heart attack. Won't work on me...for I have multiple-protection against the like. Won't tell what the protection is...but just one part of it is, of course, auto-hyp; another is anti-PK the Si's have builtt.in. The less the OI's know, the better. They know that much about me anyway. I was going to include the government agencies in this...but they surely wouldn't grasp it, or understand...so am sending this on to you four, who can understand. Best.

I wrote to you...before the pro football season started...and told you that I would "control" five, 5, pro football teams this year to be losers. The Jets, Chiefs, Eagles, Dolphins and Cowboys. Primary target: none of them to be able to win the World Championship later on (which is all of the marbles.) Secondary target: for them to lose as many games as possible. The miracle has developed right in front of your non-seeing eyes. The five teams have now played a total of 35, thirty-five games. (And I might mention that the Chiefs and Jets are two of the toughest teams to beat in the U.S., both having been World's Champions these past two years.) The five teams have LOST a total of 22 out of 35, games by now. Won only 13. Last week I beat four, 4 of the five, 5. This week I beat four, 4 of the five, 5. This Sunday I beat the Kansas City Chiefs. Yesterday, next day, I beat the Jets. I'll tell you, I have the utmost respect for Namath...he's darn hard to beat. But the PK will do it just about every time. Tell you how good it worked...in the 4th quarter of the Jets game I wanted the Browns to hold on to their lead, and they were going to kick...so I instructed the PK force on the field to take the kick "for an extra long distance" down the field. The kick got off ordinarily. The Jet receiver signaled for a fair catch, and quite mysteriously the ball dipped to one side just as it reached him (you've never seen anything quite like it) and then bounded as if possessed for about 20-30 yards towards the Jets goal line, where it was downed on the 4. And that sank Namath and Company. That's how good the PK worked in last night's game. The announcer kept saying "how could this be? The Jets have 300 yards gained and the Browns only 180...yet the Browns are ahead?" Ha ha. Or "Who ever heard of a team being penalized 164 yards, like the Jets are tonight?" (PK causes mistakes of all kinds, including penalties to get the PK'd team pushed back.) It's a downright rotten shame the people of the U.S. can't know what is going on, with this PK attack on five pro teams, and see it develop! One man controlling pro team after pro team with his mind! The PK effect, and game action, have measurable results. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 === **Page: 3 of 5** Dr. Sprinkle Sept. 25, 1970 President Nixon: In 1968...I wrote and warned of two things...and you can find this in the various government agencies' files of my writings: (1) Russia had perfected a long-range missile that could be fired...and would attack the U.S. from the direction of South America. I pointed out...that our missile defenses were set up in Alaska and along our north and eastern coasts...so what would happen if these new Russian missiles came from the direction of the South American countries? (At that time I didn't know anything about "orbital bombs"...which has just now become solid intelligence; just relatively recently now. (2) I warned...that the Russians had set up a dangerous (to the U.S.) missile-launching arrangement behind Cuba, using the body of Cuba as a shield from the U.S. (And not long after I wrote this warning, a U.S. warplane 'accidentally' got lost and went down back, behind Cuba. No doubt, to take a look. On the news tonight, two years later...hard intelligence that the US has just discovered that I was right two years ago. NOW THE REASON FOR THIS LETTER: Shame on you, and the U.S. Government! California has had no rain since April. It is desperate. 100 homes have been burned down. The state is in an emergency situation, the worst in 33 years, according to TV. Fires are breaking out all over. WHY HASN'T GOVERNOR REAGON, OR EVEN YOU OR THE GOVERNMENT, GOTTEN PK MAN OUT THERE...TO UNLEASH RAIN AND ABSOLUTELY DRENCH OUT THE AREA? You certainly know enough by now...of my work...to have the utmost confidence in me. The only conceivable conclusion I can come to...is...the U.S. Government has the stupids. I can give California all the rain it can stand. All you have to do is ask me. (But doubtless you'd rather see California go up in smoke. Seriously.) Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens 4 === **Page: 4 of 5** September 13, 1970 Dr. Sprinkle Otto Binder (and other key contacts) Dear Otto: Please get my letter TO ALL CONTACTS, dated June 13, 1970, from your files, and check the second page of the three-page letter. A sentence reads: "I have a hunch the SI'S WILL STRIKE our east or west coast WITH A BIG EARTHQUAKE during the summer..." In this morning's Sunday paper: "QUAKES CAUSE BLAST, DAMAGE IN, NEAR L.A." Los Angeles (UPI): Southern California was shaken by a series of earthquakes Saturday that caused damage ranging from an explosion at an aircraft parts plant to broken windows and power failures.....The first quake was recorded at 7:14 a.m. PDT, but was felt by few persons. The more severe shock was felt at 7:31 a.m. Aftershocks followed. Buildings in downtown Los Angeles swayed with the rolling, 30-second quake. Homeowners with swimming pools said water poured over the edges. Power failures were reported over a wide area. A Los Angeles radio station, KMPC....was off the air for eight minutes because of power failure. Other stations in the Riverside-San Bernardino area also were off the air for brief periods of time. (NOTE: THIS HAPPENED EARLY SATURDAY. LAST NIGHT, SATURDAY NIGHT, I WAS WATCHING THE ARKANSAS-STANFORD COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAME ON TV....AND ALL THE POWER BLEW OUT AT THE STADIUM; HAPPENED JUST LIKE I TRIED TO MAKE IT HAPPEN AT THE ALL STAR GAME. FOR TEN MINUTES ALL TV AND RADIO WAS OFF COMPLETELY PLUS LIGHTS AT THE STADIUM. IN ARKANSAS, IT HAPPENED. QUITE A WAY FROM CALIFORNIA. BUT QUITE A COINCIDENCE.) To continue: The National Earthquake Information Center in Rockville, Maryland, placed the magnitude at 5.4 (on the Richter Scale). Now get this: "It felt like the building was coming down," a deputy at the Newhall substation said. "It was the earliest thing I've ever felt around here." (This is, I think, an odd, strange remark to make concerning an earthquake.) That's one "prediction" come to pass. AND NOW YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO MOVE OFF OF THAT LETTER, OR EVEN THAT PAGE....FOR MY NEXT "PREDICTION" WHICH HAS COME TO PASS! Just drop down a few lines, and: "This coming fall....the SI's are going to "PK" all football stadiums where pro football teams will play....which will cause freak accidents and injuries....and have the effect of causing regular traveling hospital wards." (Note that I stress the SI's are going to do this, not me. This is their idea and their execution. Virginian-Pilot, Tuesday, Sept. 8, 1970, "LIGHTNING KILLS 2 ON GRID TEAM" St. Petersburg, Fla. (AP) Lightning struck a high school football field Monday, killing two players in a huddle and injuring 20 other persons. "We had the offensive team in the huddle," Gibbs High School Coach Al Campbell said. "I heard a loud clapping noise and every body was knocked down -- players, coaches and everybody on the field ....Police Sgt. Mink said the single bolt crashed down at the point where the boys were huddled. "Those that were hurt the worst were in the huddle," he said. Campbell said, "There was no warning. We usually leave the field when it begins to lightning." Well, you say....a coincidence. Could happen anytime. Absolutely not a coincidence....and I can prove it was not a coincidence, but the SI's === **Page: 5 of 5** going about their work as I predicted they would in my letter of June 13! THE VERY NEXT DAY...IN THE VERY SAME NEWSPAPER...September 9, 1970, "TWO GRIDDERS KILLED BY LIGHTNING." (Is this just another article about the Florida football field hit by lightning? Read on.) Cleveland (AP) Two suburban Beachwood High School football players were killed Tuesday when struck by lightning as they were leaving the school practice field... A spokesman at Suburban Community Hospital said several other boys were knocked to the ground but were not injured seriously. Two young gridders were killed when struck by lightning Monday (yesterday) in St. Petersburg, Fla., as their team huddled on the practice field." (That's written right there in the article.) In other words...two almost impossible, incredible events in two days' time...both events happening on football fields. (Why high school football fields? Because I think the SI's are giving a second, deadly serious warning...to the pro football players, and the thousands of people who will be in those football stadiums this year. This may be the reason the SI's knocked out all the power in the football stadium on the nationally-televised game last night between Arkansas and Stanford...to dramatize their seriousness re their intent. Evidently they couldn't get through their time window for the All Star Game...last night they could...) All right. This is quite a "scoop"....to make a "double-hit" with predictions...on the same page of a three-page letter three months ago. Both covering approx. the same point in time...roughly a week. Am also including two letters I have received (please put them with my things to be returned much later when you finish reading them.) The one from Oregon...reports that the writer...well, "I myself and several others saw a drove of them (UFO's) here less than 1 mo. ago, and one later on." Thus, friend Otto, the SI's are definitely making appearances as they said they would. But we're hearing about it only by accident. Second letter from New York, writer says: "I have encouraged my family, relatives, associates and friends to read this (Saga) article. I don't know why I am doing this but I feel that it is one of those articles that must be read. Here again...we have the phenomenon of the SI's telepathing people to buy Saga...then when they buy Saga...to spread the intelligence out to other people from the articles! Now, Otto, I don't like those football lightning strikes any more than you do. But keep in mind that Moses predicted the SI's/Lord would wipe out all newborn babies in Egypt! Which then occurred. And as it turned out, from the viewpoint of ages later...it was in a "good cause" since the imprisoned people of Moses escaped from the bad and evil Pharaoh. Best...(and I apologize for the emotional language I used in a recent letter. It's just that I like you and your wife so much...and want you to get the most out of life. I'm your friend.)

For, while quarterbacks get the greater share of the gold and glory, running backs get the greater share of the black and blue. ### NFL Sick Call Other first-stringers lost for the season or lengthy periods of time: AMERICAN CONFERENCE Baltimore--Defensive back Charlie Stukes, leg. Boston--Defensive end Ike Lassiter, knee; No. 1 draft Phil Olsen, knee. Cleveland--Linebacker John Garlington, hamstring. Denver--Middle linebacker John Huard, leg. Houston--Wide receiver Charlie Joiner, broken arm. Miami--Center Tom Goode, broken thumb; linebacker Ed Weisacosky, shoulder. New York--Defensive end Gerry Philbin, shoulder separation; defensive tackle Steve Thompson, cracked ribs; tackle Roger Finnie, ankle; wide receiver Don Maynard, thigh bruise. Oakland--Middle linebacker Dan Conners, broken forearm; cornerback Willie Brown, shoulder. Pittsburgh--Defensive back John Rowser, shoulder separation. San Diego--Defensive tackle Ron Billingsley, elbow. NATIONAL CONFERENCE Atlanta--Defensive tackle Carlton Dabney, knee; linebacker Greg Brezina, knee; tackle George Kunz, knee; No. 1 draft John Small, knee. Chicago--Wide receivers Bob Wallace, torn knee ligaments; Jim Seymour, leg muscle. Detroit--Wide receiver Johnny Wright, Achilles tendon. Green Bay--Linebacker Dave Robinson, snapped Achilles tendon. Minnesota--Cornerback Earsell Mackbee, hyper-extended knee. New Orleans--Guard John Shinners, dislocated elbow. New York--Guard Pete Case, ankle; cornerback Scott Eaton, hamstring. Philadelphia--Defensive back Al Nelson, infection affecting heart beat; safety Bill Bradley, torn knee ligaments. St. Louis--Linebacker Rocky Rosema, leg. An Associated Press survey showed Thursday that going into the sixth week of the season more than 15 running backs, among them several of considerable magnitude, have been lost for the season or for extended periods with serious injuries. Thirteen of the 26 teams have been plagued by injuries to their running backs with Chicago, Baltimore, Los Angeles and San Diego each losing their two-man first-string tandem either for the season or a lengthy period. The Bears have been particularly hard hit with Sayers and running mate Craig Baynham undergoing surgery Thursday. Sayers, who has a damaged left knee tendon, is out for the year. Baynham, who has a problem with an ankle tendon, may be able to return at the end of the season. George Halas, the Bears' president, said he has been on the phone trying to complete a trade for a running back before the trading deadline next Tuesday, but pointed out "almost everywhere other clubs have the same kind of injury problems." The Colts have been without both Tom Matte and Jerry Hill because of leg injuries, the Rams played their first several games without broken-jawed Les Josephson and hobbled Larry Smith and the Chargers are going without Dick Post and Brad Hubbert, both down with knee injuries. Granger, the Houston Oilers' top rusher, is lost for the season after undergoing surgery for ligament damage to his left knee and so is Matt Snell of the New York Jets, who ruptured an Achilles tendon that required surgery. Others lost for the season include Dave Hampton of Green Bay with a pelvic disorder, Leroy Keyes of Philadelphia with an Achilles tendon; No. 1 draft choice Larry Stegent of St. Louis with a knee injury and Max Anderson of Buffalo with a knee injury. There also have been a number lost for a significant length of time, including Andy Livingston, New Orleans, knee; Jim Nance, Boston, ankle; Willis Crenshaw, Denver, leg, and Tommy Mason, Los Angeles, broken ribs. While running backs have been the hardest hit, quarterbacks also have taken their lumps, particularly Joe Namath of the Jets and Charley Johnson of Houston. Namath has a broken wrist bone and Johnson a fractured collarbone. Both will be lost until the closing weeks of the season, if they return at all. Cincinnati lost Greg Cook with arm problems that required surgery even before the season started and three others have been troubled at various times this year--Len Dawson of Kansas City, Bill Nelsen of Cleveland Roger Staubach of Dallas. === **Filename: 7010 Ted Owens correct on post office prediction.pdf** === Page 2 of 6 Oct. 23, 1970 Mr. Cushman and Mr. Hochman Sports Desk Phila. Daily News Philadelphia, Pa. Dr. Sprinkle Gentlemen: I wrote you at the very beginning of the pro football season... and informed you that the Si's (UFO intelligences) were going to go all out this pro season...and literally tear all pro football teams to pieces! That the Si's would put "attack PK" in all football stadiums where pro teams would play, and make "traveling hospital wards" out of pro football teams. I pointed out that this was the Si's idea and execution...my job for them was to control just five teams, Jets, Chiefs, Cowboys, Eagles and Dolphins. I knew that sooner or later some periodical would publish an extraordinary list of pro football casualties...and this morning it happened. The Virginian-Pilot, Norfolk, Virginia, published an Associated Press article. Am enclosing a copy for you to see. Just like when I hit the Eagles with PK some years ago and your local papers published a "sick call" list of horrendous proportions...so does this one for the entire NFL! Note: "...the number of injuries cutting down running backs at an alarming rate...". And: "An Associated Press survey showed Thursday that going into the sixth week of the season more than 15 running backs, among them several of considerable magnitude, have been lost for the season or for extended periods with serious injuries. Thirteen of the 26 teams have been plagued by injuries to their running backs..." And it goes on to add injuries to other kinds of players, including quarterbacks Len Dawson, Roger Stauback and Joe Namath, who quarterback three of my PK'd teams. You know...you gentlemen and a few of my contacts are the only ones who know what is behind this, what is causing this. I warned when I wrote you before the season...that it was your responsibility to get this out to the players, the word, so that then it would be their choice if they played (and got hurt) or not. I'm afraid you fell down on your job. Too bad. There'll be lots more injuries. Just how the Si's are doing this is quite fascinating (I know how) but there's no use telling you, I guess. Waste of time.

Eagles lost. Dolphins lost. KC Chiefs lost. (All the PK'd teams, except Cowboys who played Chiefs; had to let one win Gentlemen: Ive been slow to take the Miami Dolphins apart...and make them fast losers...because yesterday was the first and only time I've been able to get them on television to do it. I managed to get them on the radio some weeks before...and beat them, for their only loss. Up till yesterday, that is. And yesterday, working on them with my special PK mind...I sopped the Miami Dolphins cold, in their tracks...as you are aware you were stopped. Though no doubt you gave the credit to the other team. Ha You remember me, Dolphins...I came to your offices before the season began, last year...and offered to make your team a world-beater. You said no. That you had a potential world-champion team. Well, with me demonstrating the only power of its kind in the world against your team...you are sunk. As for the KC Chiefs...I warned you also, before this season began (as I warned the Dolphins, the New York Jets, the Phila. Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys) that I'd stop you cold this year, stop you from reaching the World Championship (which is for all the marbles). Look what has happened to your teams, and the other three! I hit the Jets week after week on TV, and wiped out all...not practically all, but all...of their key players. Namath, Boozer, Snell, and so on. I got to the Cowboys several times on TV, and wiped out many of their key players...Staubach and others. Morton is so injured he can hardly stand up. (Yesterday I helped the Cowboys beat the Chiefs with PK, because the Cowboys have so many injured they haven't a chance to get to the Championship...so I attacked the stronger team, the Chiefs, with PK). Of the other teams, the Eagles haven't won a game yet...and are out of the running for the Championship; as are the Jets now. And the Cowboys are so weakened they haven't a chance. That leaves just the Dolphins and Chiefs to finish off with PK in the next few weeks; then my job is done. I PROMISED ALL FIVE TEAMS IN WRITING BEFORE THE SEASON BEGAN THAT I WOULD TAKE THEM APART WITH KEY INJURIES TO KEY PLAYERS AND BLOCK THEM FROM THE PRO CHAMPIONSHIP...and of course it is coming to pass, just like I did with the Eagles some years ago. Woodeshick, The Eagles star, who was torn up in yesterday's game and is out now for the season, said it right for newspaper reporters: "This team is jinxed!" he said. "This team is really, really jinxed!" And he's right, it is. And so are the Jets, the Chiefs, the Cowboys and the Dolphins. You will find this hard to believe...BUT I HAVE THE POWER TO ACTUALLY PICK UP FOOTBALL PLAYERS WITH MY MIND AND FLING THEM AT OTHER PLAYERS! And I can knock the feet out from underneath runners when nobody is near them! I do this time and time and time again in PK'ing games. That's why so many injuries...and why so many weird, freak things are happening.

Mr. Gerald Kvasnicka and his wife were driving in their car in Kansas...and heard the broadcast you and I participated in. He immediately wrote two fast letters to you...saying it was a matter of life or death to contact me...but those letters got hung up because the mail was so heavy, as you know. He then got a copy of Saga magazine...and fired off a special delivery to Saga, which was rushed to me. I called him long distance, and he said his brother had a tiny girl, age 3, dying of leukemia in Los Angeles, and could I help? I told him I didn't know, but that I'd saved others that were dying. The upshot was that he sent me a round-trip plane ticket and I immediately flew to Los Angeles and went to his brother Ken's house there. This girl is a living doll. But...she certainly was dying. The doctor's gave her about a week to live by the time I got there. I used ten choice other-dimensional techniques on her, then returned, to Norfolk. (I put so much energy and "juice" into trying to restore her that I was knocked out for a full week. Couldn't work.) Now, I told Ken Kvasnicka out there in LA that the first thing I had to do with my special ability...was to HALT her downslide. If a car is out of control, going downhill, first thing to do is get the brakes on and stop it. THEN figure out how to turn it around and get it up the hill again, you see? I just received a letter from Gerald Kvasnicka in Kansas that his brother called long distance and reported that Melody (the little girl's name) had improved 100%. The "bad" cells had dropped from 80 to 2; the "good" cells had doubled; and her horribly distended stomach, from the disease, had subsided! And she had begun to eat "with relish." Of course, this startling reversal is terrifically good news, and I wanted to share it with you, since it wouldn't have come about were it not for your radio show. Gerald A.

Mr. Dale I think the time has come...to show off the Si powers and miracle abilities...on a large scale. (Large to me and us, but not to them. I've seen them give world-wide demonstrations of weather control, and a killer drought in India, saving four million people, and so on...this is a larger scale than just a U.S. city). Provided you wish to enter into this hour-long experiment that I've mentioned...I'll carry it one step further. Not only...will people who hear the hour-long broadcast be helped in mysterious ways (through powers activated by my voice, via the Si's, in their behalf) BUT -- when the hour-long program is over, I want the listeners to go out of their houses and apartments and study the sky nearby. I WILL BUILD A MECHANISM INTO THE HOUR-LONG PROGRAM WHICH WILL ACTUALLY CALL THE UFO'S INTO HUMAN SIGHT FOR SOME TIME AFTER THE PROGRAM IS OVER, SO THAT THEY CAN BE SEEN WHERE THE PROGRAM IS HEARD. Thus you should be able to get reports from various places, in the days following the program (or even phone calls just after the program is over) telling of and describing UFO's seen as a result of your program! As I say...this entire thing is an experiment on my part. I haven't done anything like this before. And I intend to carry this even further. Am going to unleash Si powers...certain ones...to INFLUENCE San Antonio, which is a very rough place, as I remember, having been through there several times. This will have the effect of reducing the crime rate of San Antonio, of bringing about miraculous healing cures in San Antonio, in the hospitals and elsewhere. In short...am going to make a test case...experiment...out of the city of San Antonio...make it a better place. The criminal elements there will get very queasy and uneasy and unhappy...and probably move away. Law enforcement agencies, police, etc., will have a much easier time of it, because these powers will help them and be on their side. And the PK will grow and become even more powerful as time goes by. I will not change it or withdraw it. I'm going to make San Antonio my "baby" to overlook and oversee with powers from the other dimension which I know so well. God help the criminals in San Antonio from now on...and those there who would hurt anyone or anything there, for their punishment will be sure and terrible...coming as it will from the Si's and their dimension.

Mr. Gerald Kvasnicka and his wife were driving in their car in Kansas...and heard the broadcast you and I participated in. He immediately wrote two fast letters to you...saying it was a matter of life or death to contact me...but those letters got hung up because the mail was so heavy, as you know. He then got a copy of Saga magazine...and fired off a special delivery to Saga, which was rushed to me. I called him long distance, and he said his brother had a tiny girl, age 3, dying of leukemia in Los Angeles, and could I help? I told him I didn't know, but that I'd saved others that were dying. The upshot was that he sent me a round-trip plane ticket and I immediately flew to Los Angeles and went to his brother Ken's house there. This girl is a living doll. But...she certainly was dying. The doctor's gave her about a week to live by the time I got there. I used ten choice other-dimensional techniques on her, then returned to Norfolk. (I put so much energy and "juice" into trying to restore her that I was knocked out for a full week. Couldn't work.) Now, I told Ken Kvasnicka out there in LA that the first thing I had to do with my special ability...was to HALT her downslide. If a car is out of control, going downhill, first thing to do is get the brakes on and stop it. THEN figure out how to turn it around and get it up the hill again, you see? I just received a letter from Gerald Kvasnicka in Kansas that his brother called long distance and reported that Melody (the little girl's name) had improved 100%. The "bad" cells had dropped from 80 to 2; the "good" cells had doubled, and her horribly distended stomach, from the disease, had subsided! And she had begun to eat "with relish." Of course, this startling reversal is terrifically good news, and I wanted to share it with you, since it wouldn't have come about were it not for your radio show. Gerald A. Kvasnicka, Box 5, Haddam, Kansas 66944. His brother, Ken Kvasnicka, 12949 Panama St., Los Angeles, Calif. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 === **Page: 2 of 5** Dr. Sprinkle PS ..... Mr. Dale I think the time has come...to show off the SI powers and miracle abilities...on a large scale. (Large to me and us, but not to them. I've seen them give world-wide demonstrations of weather control, and a killer drought in India, saving four million people, and so on...this is a larger scale than just a U.S. city). Provided you wish to enter into this hour-long experiment that I've mentioned...I'll carry it one step further. Not only...will people who hear the hour-long broadcast be helped in mysterious ways (through powers activated by my voice, via the SI's, in their behalf) BUT when the hour-long program is over, I want the listeners to go out of their houses and apartments and study the sky nearby. I WILL BUILD A MECHANISM INTO THE HOUR-LONG PROGRAM WHICH WILL ACTUALLY CALL THE UFO'S INTO HUMAN SIGHT FOR SOME TIME AFTER THE PROGRAM IS OVER, SO THAT THEY CAN BE SEEN WHERE THE PROGRAM IS HEARD. Thus you should be able to get reports from various places, in the days following the program (or even phone calls just after the program is over) telling of and describing UFO's seen as a result of your program! As I say...this entire thing is an experiment on my part. I haven't done anything like this before. And I intend to carry this even further. Am going to unleash SI powers...certain ones...to INFLUENCE San Antonio, which is a very rough place, as I remember, having been through there several times. This will have the effect of reducing the crime rate of San Antonio, bringing about miraculous healing cures in San Antonio, in the hospitals and elsewhere. In short...am going to make a test case...experiment...out of the city of San Antonio...and make it a better place. The criminal elements there will get very queasy and uneasy and unhappy...and probably move away. Law enforcement agencies, police, etc., will have a much easier time of it, because these powers will help them and be on their side. And the PK will grow and become even more powerful as time goes by. I will not change it or withdraw it. I'm going to make San Antonio my 'baby' to overlook and oversee with powers from the other dimension which I know so well. God help the criminals in San Antonio from now on...and those there who would hurt anyone or anything there, for their punishment will be sure and terrible...coming as it will from the SI's and their dimension. Ted Owens (PK Man) - Owens === **Page: 3 of 5** Virginian-Pilot 10/23/70 Injuries May Decide Winners By The Associated Press With 1,000-yard rushers Gale Sayers and Hoyle Granger al-ready lost for the season, the number of injuries cutting down running backs at an alarming rate just might be the key fac-tor in the National Football League title races. For, while quarterbacks get the greater share of the gold and glory, running backs get the greater share of the black and blue. An Associated Press survey showed Thursday that going into the sixth week of the season more than 15 running backs, among them several of con-siderable magnitude, have been lost for the season or for extend-ed periods with serious injuries. Thirteen of the 26 teams have been plagued by injuries to their running backs with Chicago, Baltimore, Los Angeles and San Diego each losing their two-man first-string tandem either for the season or a lengthy period. The Bears have been particu-larly hard hit with Sayers and running mate Craig Baynham undergoing surgery Thursday. Sayers, who has a damaged left knee tendon, is out for the year. Baynham, who has a problem with an ankle tendon, may be able to return at the end of the season. George Halas, the Bears' president, said he has been on the phone trying to complete a trade for a running back before the trading deadline next Tues-day, but pointed out "almost everywhere other clubs have problems." The Colts have been without both Tom Matte and Jerry Hill because of leg injuries, the Rams played their first several games without broken-jawed Les Josephson and hobbled Lar-ry Smith and the Chargers are going without Dick Post and Hubbert, both down with knee injuries. Granger, the Houston Oilers' top rusher, is lost for the season after undergoing surgery for lig-ament damage to his left knee and so is Matt Snell of the New York Jets, who ruptured an Ac-hilles tendon that required sur-gery. Others lost for the season in-clude Dave Hampton of Green Bay with a pelvic disorder, Le-roy Keyes of Philadelphia with an Achilles tendon; No. 1 draft choice Larry Stegent of St. Louis with a knee injury and Max Anderson of Buffalo with a knee injury. There also have been a num-ber lost for a significant length of time, including Andy Livings-ton, New Orleans, knee; Jim of Nance, Boston, ankle; Willis Crenshaw, Denver, leg, and Tommy Mason, Los Angeles, broken ribs. While running backs have been the hardest hit, quarter-backs also have taken their lumps, particularly Joe Namath of the Jets and Charley Johnson of Houston. Namath has a brok-en wrist bone and Johnson a fractured collarbone. Both will be lost until the closing weeks of the season, if they return at all. Cincinnati lost Greg Cook with arm problems that required sur-gery even before the season started and three others have been troubled at various times this year--Len Dawson of Kan-sas City, Bill Nelsen of Cleve-land Roger Staubach of Dallas.

That the SI's would put "attack PK" in all football stadiums where pro teams would play, and make "traveling hospital wards" out of pro football teams. I pointed out that this was the SI's idea and execution...my job for them was to control just five teams, Jets, Chiefs, Cowboys, Eagles and Dolphins. I knew that sooner or later some periodical would publish an extraordinary list of pro football casualties...and this morning it happened. The Virginian-Pilot, Norfolk, Virginia, published an Associated Press article. Am enclosing a copy for you to see.

I warned when I wrote you before the season...that it was your responsibility to get this out to the players, the word, so that it would be their choice if they played (and got hurt) or not. I'm afraid you fell down on your job. Too bad. There'll be lots more injuries. Just how the SI's are doing this is quite fascinating (I know how) but there's no use telling you, I guess. Waste of time. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 [Signature] === **Page: 5 of 5** R. Sprinkle Yesterday: Jets lost. Eagles lost. Dolphins lost. KC Chiefs lost. (All the PK'd teams, except Cowboys who played Chiefs; had to let one win) October 26, 1970 The Miami Dolphins The Kansas City Chiefs Gentlemen: Ive been slow to take the Miami Dolphins apart...and make them fast losers...because yesterday was the first and only time Ive been able to get them on television to do it. I managed to get them on the radio some weeks before...and beat them, for their only loss. Up till yesterday, that is. And yesterday, working on them with my special PK mind...I sopped the Miami Dolphins cold, in their tracks...as you are aware you were stopped. Though no doubt you gave the credit to the other team. Ha You remember me, Dolphins...I came to your offices before the season began, last year...and offered to make your team a world-beater. You said no. That you had a potential world-champion team. Well, with me demonstrating the only power of its kind in the world against your team...you are sunk. As for the KC Chiefs...I warned you also, before this season began (as I warned the Dolphins, the New York Jets, the Phila. Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys) that Id stop you cold this year, stop you from reaching the World Championship (which is for all the marbles). Look what has happened to your teams, and the other three! I hit the Jets week after week on TV, and wiped out all...not some, but all...of their key players. Namath, Boozer, Snell, and so on. I got to the Cowboys several times on TV, and wiped out many of their key players...Staubach and others. Morton is so injured he can hardly stand up. (Yesterday I helped the Chiefs with PK, because the Cowboys have so many injured they havent a chance to get to the Championship...so I attacked the stronger team, the Chiefs, with PK). Of the other teams, the Eagles havent won a game yet...and are out of the running for the Championship; as are the Jets now. And the Cowboys are so weakened they havent a chance. That leaves just the Dolphins and Chiefs to finish off with PK in the next few weeks; then my job is done. I PROMISED ALL FIVE TEAMS IN WRITING BEFORE THE SEASON BEGAN THAT I WOULD TAKE THEM APART WITH KEY INJURIES TO KEY PLAYERS AND BLOCK THEM FROM THE PRO CHAMPIONSHIP...and of course it is coming to pass, just like I did with the Eagles some years ago. Woodeshick, the Eagles star, who was torn up in yesterdays game and is out now for the season, said it right for newspaper reporters. "This team is jinxed!" he said. "This team is really, really jinxed!" And hes right, it is. And so are the Jets, the Chiefs, the Cowboys and the Dolphins. You will find this hard to believe...BUT I HAVE THE POWER TO ACTUALLY PICK UP FOOTBALL PLAYERS WITH MY MIND AND FLING THEM AT OTHER PLAYERS! And I can knock the feet out from underneath runners when nobody is near them! I do this time and time and time again in PK'ing games. Thats why so many injuries...and why so many weird, freak things are happening. Box 3134 CHS, Norfolk, Va. Ted Owens (PK Man) T.

Do you Eagles think for a minute... that after losing 16 games straight... you could beat Miami, one of the toughest in the NFL, without PK Man's help? Ha! Fer...git it! Sunday, Nov. 8, 1970 Dr. Sprinkle The Philadelphia Eagles Before your game today with the Miami Dolphins...the TV announcer (I had the game live on TV) said you'd lost 16 games straight...and maybe you'd put it all together today. I'm telling you now...YOU didn't put it all together...I put you all together today...in order to beat the Dolphins...exactly as I outlined it to you and all my contacts in my letter of last week. I used your team as a hammer to beat the Dolphins, who are higher in the ratings than you are. (What team isn't?) Since you are both PK'd teams, one of you had to lose. I chose the Miami Dolphins to lose. Today I also had, simultaneously, the Cowboys and Giants, on radio...and this is most interesting. I beat the Cowboys all right, just as I planned to do. BUT...after the Eagles had gotten 24 points I figured things were safe to beat the Dolphins, so I switched over to the radio to concentrate on the Cowboys for a while. When I switched back to TV, the Dolphins had almost tied you. UP TO THE TIME I SWITCHED TO THE RADIO...THE DOLPHINS COULD NOT DO ANYTHING. As soon as I went away from that game to the Cowboys' game, then the Dolphins began to score against the Eagles. Get the idea? Anyway, I got back onto your game...and "froze" it so that you could win over the Dolphins. I'm not being nice to you at all...just knocking the Dolphins off from getting to that championship. AS A MATTER OF FACT...because your Eagles' secretary called me a "nut" on the phone last week, and because Jim Smart printed that you keep my correspondence in the "junk file"...I am going to put a lot of extra english on my "attack PK" against the Eagles in the weeks to come. I'll teach you to respect PK Man! Today I also beat the Jets, using the Steelers as a hammer. I missed on the Chiefs, because the Oilers were too weak. Here's a true story I tried to give to Larry Bonko last week...but he didn't return my call. So I'll give it to everybody. It's by Robert Sylvester, New York Daily News, November 5, 1970. Seems that Al Woodall, of the Jets, dismayed because of the PK jinx...and playing in place of Namath, who got injured...joined a coven of witches in New York, for protection and for good luck. The witches told him, in order to beat the PK jinx, to yell "kazunt" whenever he passed. But secretly the witches tipped off the Giants (this was last Sunday when the Giants beat the Jets) and whenever Woodall tried to pass, yelling "kazunt!"...the Giants were running at him yelling "kazunt!" Hilarious. It's a true story. Today Woodall got injured in the Steeler's game. Now the Jets are down to no quarterbacks at all. How PK'd can you get? Now if you Eagles think you won a game today, forget it. "That 'ole black magic" will be smiting you in the future weeks...until you play Miami or Dallas or KC Chiefs. Then I might help you out again. In the meantime...the Lord help you. Owens Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Va. 23514 === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 2 of 17 November 10, 1970, Tuesday TO ALL NFL PRO FOOTBALL TEAMS This is Ted Owens (PK Man). In last August and September issues of Saga Magazine it was discussed how I had ruined the Philadelphia Eagles with my mind, and through contact with UFO intelligences. There will be two more articles in Saga this coming March and April. Also, a book has just been published, and you can find it on your drugstore bookstand, a Lancer Book, called "The Seers Predict For 1971", by Brad Steiger. It is a book about "America's greatest psychics." The book discusses my work. Reason for this letter...last night on nationally-televised Colts-Packers game the announcers were discussing the "incredible wave of injuries of pro football players this year"...never before encountered on such a scale. I want to make sincere apologies to all pro teams for these injuries. They are my doing. It was necessary to bring this about...in order to demonstrate for certain scientists and government agencies...what my mind can do. And this was the only way. In my letter to my 30 contacts on June 13, 1970 (scientists, govt. agencies, lawyers and others) I stated the following: "This coming fall...the SI's (UFO intelligences) are going to "PK" all football stadiums where pro football teams will play...which will cause freak accidents and injuries...and have the effect of causing pro football teams to be regular traveling hospital wards." This communication was also sent to the Sports Desk of the Phila. Daily News, 400 N. Broad Street, Phila., Pa., Messrs. Cushman and Hochman. I also informed my contacts at that time that I would single out five NFL teams...Chiefs, Jets, Cowboys, Eagles and Dolphins...and with my mind keep them away from the Pro Championship this year. When the Miami Dolphins won a lot, I wrote Cushman and Hochman once more, and told them I would now take the Dolphins apart and begin their losing...and since I told them that, they've begun losing big. (Last Sunday on TV I used PK on every play to beat the Dolphins, using the Eagles as a "hammer". I succeeded. Obviously, the weak and winless Eagles, after having lost 16 games, were not about to beat the powerful Dolphins, one of the best in the NFL, without my PK entering into it.) And incidentally...that letter referred to above of June 13, 1970, also was given to a court reporter on that day...who swore out an affidavit for it and signed it. So it is on record...that my intent, through the SI's, was to cause "an incredible wave of pro football injuries." But I am sorry to have had to do it, even for a scientific experiment. Sincerely, Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. I used PK to beat the Packers, last night, to shove the Dolphins farther back in the ratings. === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 3 of 17 November 3, 1970 TO ALL CONTACTS Dr. Himminkle You've all just witnessed...a clear-cut, beautiful demonstration of my "PK" attacking several pro football teams this past Sunday. Now I want you to get one thing in mind...remember several years ago when reporters took me to a pro game in Philadelphia, and I had Woodeshick thrown out of the game...by using my mind to do it? It is thoroughly documented. The reporters wrote it up at the time. Now, Woodeshick lost his temper, ran onto the field and hit a player. There was a fight. I.e., the "PK" manipulated several humans into a fight to get the desired result. In yesterday's Ledger-Star was the heading: "Brawls Affect Outcome of Two Pro Games." Yep. Both pro games were my PK'd targets! The Giants were behind and in danger of losing...so lo and behold a fight, which so angered the Giants they scored 16 points in only 2 minutes...to win the game. Here again, a fight...to obtain the desired result. The other game was even more interesting...I had it on TV...and the Chiefs were ahead, with only about a minute to play. I asked the SI's for a miracle to happen so that the Chiefs wouldn't win. But...the Chiefs had the ball. Suddenly Otis Taylor, a Chief, punched a Raider in the nose (here again a fight) and both teams fought for about eight minutes. The referees got all confused and forgot where the ball had been. They got even more confused... first they penalized the Raiders (and the game would have been over) then they reversed the decision and penalized the Chiefs. This gave the Raiders the ball...they kicked a field goal...tied the Chiefs...which cost the Chiefs a vital victory in the Western Division race! The result I was after! The Chief's coach, Stram, then ran into the dressing room of the referees and bawled out Finley, the referee who changed his mind re the penalty...and the referee ran Stram out of the room, yelling at Stram "Don't you call me a crook!" "Get out of here!" So you see...the PK used fights in both games to pull out a win and a tie for my "side". Just like the PK used a fight to get Woodeshick out. This was the second Sunday in a row that I was able to get to Miami first, then to Kansas City. Previous Sunday I had both on TV, and beat them both. Blanked out Miami. This Sunday I got Miami on the radio and blanked them out again. Miami can't understand why it's had a goose egg two games in a row. It's because I handled them personally by TV and radio. The Giants beat the Jets, another PK'd team. Two PK'd teams played each other...Cowboys and Eagles. Now, the PK has grown so strong onto the Eagles...that only my personal presence at an Eagle game could offset the attacking PK. I tried to get the Eagles to get me to Dallas, so I could use the Eagles as a "hammer" on the Cowboys, but they wouldn't, so they got beaten. "Long-distance" or "absent" PK isn't strong enough to help the Eagles; but it sure will wreck the Eagles! My PK attacks make for crazy, weird games...and I guess you really saw that in the Giants-Jets and KC Chiefs-Raiders games, yes? My personal control over these pro football teams...via my mind...is awesome. Ted Owens (PK Man) Owens Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Va. 23514 === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 4 of 17 November 12, 1970 Dr. Sprinkle Dear Otto: The Si's have just given me some startling information...and I will share it with you. When I was a schoolboy, my teachers thought that I was dumb. So did my parents. What they didn't know was...I could read the minds of my teachers, and my schoolmates...I could go out in the streets and "smell" the wind, and tell what was going on in different parts of the small town I lived in...and I could read magazines while in the 1st grade, age 6...at the time my first teacher was trying to get the class to identify letters on small cardboard squares! I can remember it all clearly, and I thought everybody could do what I could do. When Lornie, my daughter, was age 6, she could talk with me, with the authority of a professor of psychology in college, about ESP and its branches and all of its nuances...the word psychokinesis was as common to her as the word table salt. She was an expert on the field of hypnosis and could talk to me for hours on the subject, as equal to equal! (I'd been a pro hypnotist for twenty years!) Yet she did poorly in school in the early grades...just squeaked by...and the same in high school. Now the same thing is occurring...my little boy Beau, age 7, is considered dumb by his teachers. He's restless in class, doesn't follow the teacher, his attention is elsewhere, etc. And I can tell by observing Beau daily...that he is a carbon-copy of me when I was his age! This puzzled me and I was brooding on the strangeness of it recently...when suddenly the Si's communicated, and gave me the entire answer in a lightning-flash! The human thinking apparatus is a complicated maze of "wiring" and "patterns of wiring". The Mensas, M's, have a much larger "pattern of wiring" than the normal person, who has a more simplified, smaller pattern of wiring. And of course, the smaller pattern is easier to activate in the early beginning. The larger pattern, more complicated pattern, takes longer, years longer, to activate! The Si's even gave me mental pictures to show me plainly how it works! They showed me a giant blotter, capable of absorbing water. Beside it was a tiny blotter, capable of absorbing water. Both blotters represented human brains...the giant blotter the more highly-evolved brain...the smaller blotter the simple, uncomplicated brain. If water were poured into the center of the small blotter, then the entire blotter would be saturated quickly. I.e., the child's brain is quickly activated (normal child) and the child functions normally, as the teacher expects the child should. But if water is poured into the center of the giant blotter, representing a child's brain that is highly-evolved, and very complicated pattern...then it takes years longer for that blotter to become entirely saturated (activated) to full operating capacity! (Gee, I hope I'm getting this over. It's so easy for me to see in my mind and understand...but getting Si information into English is tough sometimes.) === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 5 of 17 2 A similar analogy exists in nature. A newborn colt, or puppy, or kitten...etc., having a simple uncomplicated thinking pattern...quickly gets onto its feet, gets its eyes opened, and copes with its environment. Just like the child with a "small mind", or mind that is simple, normal and uncomplicated gets into action re coping with its environment quickly...and does better in 1st grade than the child with a "large mind" that is complicated, and will be unable to cope with its environment so quickly because the total brain pattern has to have more time to become fully activated! Now, just as the colt or puppy gets into action fast in its environment...in contrast the human baby takes a long time to get into action to cope with its environment, comparatively. Right? I.e., with newborn colt compared with newborn human baby, so as to 1st grader child with small mind pattern compared with 1st grader child with large mind pattern to be activated fully. You see? This is tremendously exciting to me, what the Si's have told me. I surely do wish I could show you the mental pictures the Si's have shown me. Because they actually showed me a mind-pattern in a human. It's like pictures I've seen of the cell set-up, you know, the genetic pattern. They also showed me an illness pattern in a human...looks something like a aerial view of a maze below, or one of those puzzles composed of innumerable squares, some with openings, some with none, where you're supposed to draw a pencil line through to the center. (And they showed me how to draw this illness pattern out of a human. haven't tried it yet.) It has to be transferred to some lesser form of living thing...like a tree, etc. I know this sounds fantastic...but the PK has wrecked football teams...why shouldn't this information be correct! All right, switch thought here. In 1965 I went to CIA in Washington D.C. and told them all about Nature. I also told them at that time that Nature said if I died or were killed...then the U.S. would be destroyed. I'd always thought they meant either they would do it, or would allow our enemies Russia and China destroy the U.S. BUT in light of your most recent ms., what they've meant (and they've since reminded the U.S. govt. agencies time and again of this)...is that if I die or am killed...THEN THERE WILL BE NOBODY TO PROTECT THE U.S. FROM THE PSI WAR JUST BEGINNING WITH RUSSIA AND CHINA! I am, after all, due to their seven years of training, the only human in the world with my psi knowledge and uses of practical application of psi powers to the extent that I can use it. If the U.S. loses that...then the U.S. can be destroyed by ESP attacks from Russia and China, as they grow more advanced in how to use it. As primitive as they are with it, and their knowledge, they are getting results in the U.S.! Before closing, Otto...just for your special interest...I'd like to tell you how I "flew" on two different occasions, and how I learned to read in one day at the age of six. === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 6 of 17 Correction... "flaw" On possibly three occasions. The first time was when I was five. My grandmother, "Queenie", drove across town to a neighbor's house. It was at dusk. She left me in the yard outside, while she went inside. Alone, suddenly I was drawn up into the air. I passed up over the downstairs window...up over the roof of the house...then the next thing I knew I was coming down again, slowly, until I reached the ground in a sitting position. How long I was up in the air, or what happened up there, I don't know. No memory of it at all. But I rushed into the house, greatly excited, and told Queenie about it...but of course she thought I was imagining it, and told me to run back outside and play. The second time...was when I was a teenager. I climbed up on top of a ten-foot diving board at the Country Club swimming pool in Bedford, Indiana, and did a swan dive off the high board. But oddly, I didn't come down. I remained in the swan position, arms outstretched, looking down at the people in the pool...and it seemed as if time were frozen! Finally I came down with a splash. BUT THIS TIME SOMEBODY SAW IT AND CONFIRMED IT! Bob Armstrong, a childhood enemy of mine, said to me when I swam to the edge of the pool, "T, what happened up there? Seemed like you were up there forever. Thought you never were coming down!" Only he, of the some 20 people around the pool, had seen it and noticed it...BUT HE HAD! It had not been my imagination. This made me greatly excited. The third time was when I was on the Day Star, a Swedish ship sailing out of Frisco for New Caledonia in 1943. Out in the Pacific I was out on deck, up on a hatch, when suddenly I lifted and moved slowly through the air towards the railing. I could see the amazed faces of sailors below me, looking up at me. I must have traveled about ten feet, when slowly I descended to the deck in front of the rail! I turned and all those guys were staring at me. But just like at the swimming pool...they said nothing. It was almost liked they'd all been hypnotized to forget it. Except for Bob Armstrong. Now for learning to read in one day. When I was 5, almost 6, Queenie (again) drove to Oolitic to her mother's house. Her mother was a famous psychic, worked with a Ouija board. Queenie left me outside (again) on the front porch, where I swung in the porch swing. Suddenly there was a beautiful redhaired girl in the swing with me...in her 20's. She asked me if I'd like to read, and produced a book. I said yes, but said I don't know how. She laughed musically and put her arm around me and opened the book and read to me for a bit, then she said, "You can read now. Go up inside the house into the attic where you will find some old magazines. You can read them." I ran into the house up into the attic and there was a stack of old western magazines, dime novels. I picked up one and began to read about this cowboy on the desert, cooking bacon in his frying pan. It was like a whole new world to me. Queenie finally found me up there pouring over the magazines. From that day on I read avidly every magazine I could get my hands on! Then I started school... and the teacher gave me letters on cardboards to learn to identify, the cardboards to put into words. I told her I didn't need to === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 7 of 17 4 do all that...because I already could read. She sneered and laughed at me...went to the blackboard and wrote "apple" on it and asked me what that meant. Suddenly, and with no reason, I said "cow" although I knew exactly what the word was. IT WAS AS IF SOMETHING WERE TRYING TO HIDE OR SHIELD MY ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE. So she told me to go outside and stand in the hall, as punishment for lying. By age 8 I'd read all the books in the Bedford library on hypnotism and voodoo and ESP. Not only that...I put the knowledge to use. The other kid gangs fought each other with rocks. I taught my gang to take match sticks, split the ends, insert playing card fins, insert a needle into the other end...and blow them through copper tubing at the other gangs! Things like that. I used voodoo on my brother Jack once to make him sick...my mother, Carol Owens (who has always hated me and been my vicious enemy from the beginning) will confirm that! She lives at 855 Hinman Avenue, Evanston, Illinois. But she remembers. I used real voodoo techniques on my brother Jack...and he got sick...and my mother came to me and begged me to stop so that Jack would get well! And I was only 7-8 at the time. This in a tiny country town in Indiana where lots of the kids ran barefooted. By the time I was a teenager I'd read all the books in the large library in Bedford...and was having the librarian send to Indianapolis, the state capitol, for more books! I'd read three full books in an evening. This just to give you an idea of how that redhaired lady got me off to a running start by teaching me "instant reading." Somehow, it's sort of like when Cayce slept with a book under his pillow and when he woke, knew what was in it. Yet different. But somewhere in there...lies the same magic. Sincerely, Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 8 of 17 Monday, November 15, 1970 Dear Otto: Have just made a fascinating discovery! MY ABILITY TO USE PK IS IN DIRECT PROPORTION TO MY PHYSICAL STATUS! Let me explain. The week previously I beat two pro teams simultaneously, one on TV and one on radio...then beat another pro team on TV. The following night I beat the Packers with PK on TV. But then...I got the flu. This last Saturday I was weak with flu, body ached, sneezed constantly, soaked one handkerchief after another with runny nose...the next day, Sunday, I had the Chiefs on TV, followed by the Jets on TV. Sneezing and blowing my nose...I pk'd the Chiefs first, play by play...managed to get two key players out of the game, managed to get the ball time and again to the Steelers, on freak mishaps from the Chiefs...but the Steelers bumbled and fumbled and simply gave the ball back again to the Chiefs time and again. (In this case the PK doesn't help the helped team at all...for they negate it.) And the Chiefs won. By the time the first game was over I was too weak to continue, a rarity for me. I flopped into bed and simply watched the Jets game...without trying to PK it. The Jets beat the hell out of the Rams. An upset. Furthermore, the Miami Dolphins ran all over the Saints, and beat the Saints down in Miami. Another upset. Actually, although three of my five target teams won...which is bad for my average...it was good in one way, because with me sick, and the PK weak and not working much...it could easily be seen what a tremendous job I've been doing in beating these powerhouse teams...because yesterday, relatively unhindered by me, they turned loose their normal games and whopped the daylights out of their opponents! Today, Monday, I feel a little stronger...at least this morning...and tonight am going to try to get up enough power to beat the Cowboys on TV with PK. The flu, for the past seven days, has been putting me to bed about five in the afternoon, weak and sick. But tonight am going to have to have enough moxy to beat the Cowboys, who are high in the ratings. I know you don't understand this pro game stuff, but actually it's one of the clearest and best indicators of how PK works...can be observed and the results evaluated Was horrified by another football team being wiped out...Marshall. Also by the abnormal storm that hit Pakistan. Ugh. Maybe I should throw my signed affidavits away on those. Best to you.......... Ted Owens (PK Man) Owens === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 9 of 17 P.S. Don't know if you know it or not...but the Marshall team being wiped out...wasn't the only football team endangered this weekend. Only a hundred miles away the University of Kentucky football team, on an airplane, was almost wiped out when a smaller plane crashed onto the airfield near their plane! It was a near miss. All those in the smaller plane, a Jet Commander, were killed. I think this occurred the same evening the Marshall thing happened. It was in the papers; both of these occurrences. === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 10 of 17 Dr Sprinkle November 22, 1970 Dear Dr. Pogel, alias Max: Let me report you the action. Last week...for PK purposes...I was knocked out with the flu. Yesterday, Saturday, I was ill again and had to go to bed in the afternoon. But today, Sunday, I arose early and geared up for the afternoon pro football games. And I made a mistake. At 1 p.m. the Cowboys were on Channel 3, the Dolphins on Channel 10. Both "target" teams. So I had to improvise as they say in jazz. I figured I could halve the PK force...half on the Cowboys game, half on the Dolphins. So that's what I did...and worked the Cowboys game for a while, but since the score was 9 to 10 or something like that, I figured it was safe...and went to the Dolphins game. While I'd been PK'ing the Cowboys, the Dolphins had scored twice and were way ahead. That made me reconsider, so I returned to the Cowboys game and removed the PK there and transferred it to the Dolphins game...so that I'd have all the PK force concentrated on that game...since it was more important to stop the Dolphins than the Cowboys. In other words, in trying to control both TV games simultaneously, the Dolphins got out of hand and scored fast (which they are capable of...although I shut them out, blanked them, three weeks straight not long ago). Then matters got worse. The Colts dropped their passes, fumbled the ball time and again...and literally gave the game away. At least three times they could have had touchdowns...and fumbled it away. PK cannot help when that occurs. And the Dolphins won big. I was cussing. I turned to find out how the Cowboys had done since I'd left them early in the game...and found out that, unchecked by PK, they'd scored 45 points and won! So...I lost that round...and turned to the next game, the Kansas City Chiefs. I stopped the Chiefs good. They couldn't make one touchdown in the game. Just kicked a couple of field goals. The Cardinals were on the KC Chiefs 3, and fumbled the ball to the damn Chiefs...giving away a certain touchdown...and the game ended in a tie, 6-6. But of course to me it was a win...because it meant the Chiefs didn't win...thus they didn't advance in the ratings race. (Keep in mind that my goal is not week to week wins or losses...it is to keep the "target 5" from winning the World's Pro Championship this year. And that's what all the teams are after. So a tie to KC Chiefs was as good as a loss; and since the Cardinals did not lose, they kept their lead over the Cowboys! So it worked out great anyway. A great big plus was: I asked the SI's to get out some key Dolphins with injuries...and wham! Believe it or not...they carried four, that is four, key 1st team players off the field (Dolphins), two of which were Kiick, the star runner, and Warfield, their star pass catcher. That will hold those two teams back even more in the race to the championship. I'm not even bothering with the Jets, since they are out of it. I wouldn't bother with the Eagles, either, because they are out of it...but they insulted me recently...so I'll attack them when I get them on TV, just for the hell of it, to do what damage I can to them. I'll hit them tomorrow night (Monday night) when they play the Giants. Best.......... Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CES, Norfolk, Va. 23514 === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 11 of 17 2 P.S. Last Monday night I had the Cowboys on TV, and held them back so that they were beaten 38-0. Now, this coming Thursday I can get them again on TV, on Thanksgiving...and this time I won't do any channel-switching and get the Si's all confused. All my powers of the mind, will be concentrated on either getting the Cowboys beaten...or liquidate some of their key players...or both. (You see, I can win, even if my "target team" doesn't lose... as long as I knock out some of their key players, like I did four of Miami's first team today. Because...that means in the crucial games coming up...in the ratings race to the Pro Championship... they'll be weakened by the loss of their key players, and fold up. Now, here's something to keep in mind. When I notified my five target teams before the season began...I picked three of the toughest teams in pro football (four really, but I didn't know Miami was that tough then). Cowboys, Jets, and KC Chiefs. Remember the Jets and KC Chiefs were very recent World Champs. The Jets, with Namath and Boozer and Snell et al, were a real powerhouse. (Of course, I liquidated Namath and Boozer and Snell so that they are no longer a powerhouse...that's my system I was telling you about. While they were winning a few games early in the season...they were losing key players for the season.) Okay. Now...here's how my five target teams now stand: none of them have won over six games, as of today. That means that none of them are at the top of their particular division. So I've done a damn good job! The Cowboys are third in their division; Miami is second in its division; KC Chiefs second in their division. (Jets and Eagles are out of it. They're just going through the motions now...and taking their lumps.) If I can kick the stuffings out of the Eagles tomorrow night... that will put the Giants farther ahead of the Cowboys...and then if I can polish off the Cowboys on Thursday (a very hard task because the Packers are weak and make too many mistakes) then the Cowboys are out of it completely. I'll be able to get at the KC Chiefs next weekend...and if I can get them to lose, or even tie...then they'll be ruined. Any game the Giants, Cardinals, Colts or Raiders play...I'll try to beat their opponents with PK...in order to knock the Cowboys, Dolphins and Chiefs down farther in the ratings. Larry Bonko, Norfolk columnist, said "Gee, Ted, you really work at this, don't you!" Ah surely do. Ted Owens P.S. The two most easily observable results from my PK work done Sunday...were the four first team injured men removed from the Dolphins, when I called for it; plus I asked the force-field on the field to make Dawson drop the ball when Stenerud tried to kick field goals on two occasions...and Dawson dropped the ball on both occasions. The kicks were both missed; muffed. Thus the Chiefs did not win. === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 12 of 17 Tuesday, November 24, 1970 Dear Max: Just a coincidence, I suppose, but oddly enough the below began...just as it was announced in the papers that government agents were interviewing pro football players from all of the pro teams...and issuing subpoenas to key members of teams, with the whole thing being kept mysterious hush-hush. My apologies to you. I hope that I'm not wasting your valuable time. From the beginning of the pro season up until two weeks ago, I was doing just fine with my PK work. The past two weeks...something odd has taken place. The first of the two weeks I attributed it to my having a severe case of flu. But it's happened again this week. I'll explain it. First, as far as science and the methods of scientific measurement go...the past two weeks have been a failure for me, and a "black mark" on my ESP record. Because for the past two weeks my target teams have been winning, instead of losing. And that's the only thing that counts...as far as your scientific measurement could go. But it is how they've been winning, that puzzles me. No matter which team the target team has played...the un-PK'd team (which we'll call the UPK team from hereon) has beaten itself! The Colts last Sunday had several opportunities to make easy touchdowns...but dropped the ball on passes, and fumbled the ball to Miami on key plays. Happened again last night...I had the Eagles under good PK control, I thought. The PK hit them well, caused them to fumble and make mistakes. But...the Giants did exactly what the Colts did on Sunday (and these are two dam good teams!) The Giants dropped crucial, key passes...where the receivers were wide open for long runs and probable touchdowns. They fumbled the ball over to the Eagles on important, key plays. In short, they gave the game away, just the same way the Colts did on Sunday. And this puzzles me. The Giants could have easily tied the game with a kick at the end...but caused a penalty on themselves that ruined even that. I sent you newsclips yesterday...where the Colts coach himself said that they'd beaten themselves. No doubt that's what the Giant's coach will put into print...because it is true. But what bothers me...is the fact that for the first time since the pro season began...my PK isn't stopping the scoring of the target teams, these past two weeks. This is unnatural. I know my PK is working...because when I've asked it to cause muffed field-goals, then I got muffed field goals, not once but several times. When I asked for injuries to certain players...I got those certain players injured and out. So it is working, and couldn't be due to the SI's "time-window" (an interval of time that happens every once in a while where the SI's can't get through to me...or produce phenomena in this dimension from their dimension. It's like a black spot.) But I'll not rationalize, or alibi. Only results count. And for the first time this pro football season...my PK is missing. IT WOULD HAVE TO HAPPEN JUST AS YOU ARE GETTING INTERESTED, and this bothers me no end! My PK was beating 4 out of the 5 PK'd teams week after week...and you weren't in on it. Then you come in on it...and presto, the UPK teams start beating themselves and giving the games away to the PK'd teams. But please, I beg of you...be patient. I'll show you something really good in the PK line yet. Best..........

I respect your desire to demonstrate your abilities, and your willingness to submit information to a wide variety of persons. As you know, the question of a position at this University is "not in the cards". As you indicate, the hiring of University personnel is based upon a wide variety of criteria: academic, ethical, and experience factors. There are a few Universities which offer specific courses in parapsychology and hypnosis. My own work is primarily that of counseling psychology, although I do conduct an informal course on self-hypnosis and I often give lectures on parapsychology, hypnosis, and UFO research. These activities however, are primarily "for free" and I intend to help others to learn, as well as to increase the total contribution of the University. Also, as you say, the degree is the main requirement. It may be true that there is only "one human in the world with your ability and capacity", if so, I hope that your experiences are available to those persons who want to learn more about them. Of course, I believe that each person is unique and has something to offer to his fellow man. Perhaps a written description of your experiences will help to provide this sense of satisfaction that you would gain from knowing that other people can learn from your abilities and your experiences. Best wishes to you. Sincerely, R. Leo Sprinkle, Ph.D. Counselor and Associate Professor of Psychology RLS/mm === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 14 of 17 Dr. Sprinkle... Wish your university...would sincerely consider...hiring me as a teacher (although I haven't the academic license)... to teach a class. I could do a bang-up job of teaching all of the aspects of ESP and hypnosis and autohypnosis! Because I have had over thirty years of experience in using these parapsychological functions! What I know...and could teach...would be worth more than gold and diamonds. I know techniques to use in hypnosis not known to any other living human. Trained thousands with the techniques. I could teach the students telepathic and psychokinetic experiments they've never seen or heard of. And so on. And I could add to the course...invaluable material that would inspire and motivate the students to go over, under or through all obstacles...to get what they want out of life. (But to first find out what they want out of life.) I know it's ridiculous to suggest it...but I am suggesting it, anyway. For instance while at Duke, as a freshman in 1946 (I was 26) our psychology prof made the statement to the class that the human ear couldn't hear a silent dog whistle. I immediately stood up...and told the prof of an experiment I'd conducted over the summer months...of placing a subject behind a jazz orchestra, where the music was deafening, with a notebook and pencil. And the subject was hypnotized and conditioned to hear a silent dog whistle over the loud music. I stood fifty feet away in front of the band, and blew a silent dog whistle in patterns of longs and shorts...following a script I'd jotted down. At the conclusion of the whistle blowing I went behind the band, wakened the girl...and compared my pre-notebook jottings that I'd followed with her jottings under hypnosis. They were absolutely the same! Under hypnosis she'd picked out the silent dog whistle sound unerringly through the roaring noise of hot jazz music up close! The prof was intrigued and we became close friends. Anyway, nothing ventured nothing gained, eh? Just thought I'd ask. No reply necessary, really. I can guess what you'd say to this proposition. But there's only one human in the world with my ability and capacity...and it would be nice, if I could teach some of it before I depart this earth. Sincerely, Ted Owens (PK Man) Owens Ted Owens Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, VA 23514 === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 15 of 17 Thanksgiving, Nov. 26, 1970 TO ALL CONTACTS This is a VERY IMPORTANT COMMUNICATION. Today...I attacked the Dallas Cowboys with PK, in their game with the Packers. The PK successfully controlled the Cowboys for three quarters, with the score still 3-3; i.e., the PK had not allowed the Cowboys to score a single touchdown in three quarters, and part of the 4th, too. BUT...the Packers had bumbled and fumbled away THEIR chances to make a touchdown for 3 quarters. The Cowboys finally won. I was puzzled. You have to remember...since 1965, for five years, I've been PK'ing pro football teams successfully, and consistently, with some misses, but darn few. UP UNTIL TWO WEEKS AGO. Something weird began to happen...my PK worked on the target team, all right, in every game...yet the un-PK'd team ALSO bumbled and fumbled away its chances. AT first I thought it was just a coincidence. But when half a dozen good teams like the Colts and Redskins do it in a row...I knew something was wrong. I determined to find out. Tonight I set up communications with Control of the Si's, and presented the problem to them. The answer they gave me in a few minutes...was shocking to me. Actually, I should have guessed it. A bit of background before filling you in on it. Several years ago I gave two demonstrations, at different times, of causing earthquakes and hurricanes and the like, around the world. What happened was fantastic. All over the world quakes and volcanoes came alive and typhoons and hurricanes ripped and roared. And floods, too. There was no doubt that it was an unusual series; no doubt at all. They were two, clear-cut demonstrations. Well, in Saga magazine you read how I'd told Otto Binder and my Contacts last spring...that coming up would be an "earthquake summer" with terrible floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, and such, around the world...as a demonstration of Si power. Since that time Europe has had unprecedented floods; San Antonio was struck by a hurricane and greatly damaged; Peru had a devastating earthquake...the worst in its history, I believe; and more recently the Philippines have been struck by two typhoons in as many weeks, being the worst in its history; also Pakistan was just struck by a hurricane...called in the papers one of the "worst natural disasters in history." All these, obviously, were not JUST ordinary quakes, etc. Well, some months ago I contacted the Si's, alarmed at the loss of life with this demonstration, and asked them about it. They answered and told me THAT MY MIND HAD INCREASED ITS POWER AND SO THE PHENOMENA HAD INCREASED IN ITS INTENSITY, PROPORTIONATELY. All right. Tonight they told me that that was what was my problem at THIS time with my pro football demonstrations. TOO MUCH POWER WITH MY MIND. (This was interesting...I had thought THEY were doing it; they told me that I was doing it, and this is the point I'd laughed at Zakow, the astrophysicist about, when he said it was my mind doing it. I couldn't believe that. But the Si's say it is my mind. To be sure I understood, I asked them to give me an analogy in mental pictures. They quickly obliged. (This is a technique I often use with them.) In short, they said if I went to your home, where you kept a goldfish in a tank, and dropped a large lighted firecracker in the fishtank...it would stun the fish. (This compared to what I WAS doing in PK'ing teams on a football field.) Then they said: but suppose I go to your home, and light a stick of DYNAMITE and drop it in the fishtank...it would blow up your house! To clarify further...it seems, according to them, that my mind has recently increased its power so much...that in PK'ing ONE TEAM my mind is also affecting the OTHER TEAM simultaneously. === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 16 of 17 2 There is just too much power issuing from my mind, blanketing the football field. Both teams are now affected. And this explains the mystery that is currently puzzling the pro football world...how come the unprecedented number of injuries this year. You see, while PK'ing a target team, such as the Jets...I ask the PK force to injure key players and get them out of the game, or the season. Out went Namath, Snell, Boozer, and lots of others. But while I was doing that, other teams were playing them. Since my power now is overlapping the other team as well...THEN THE PLAYERS OF THE OTHER TEAM ARE ALSO GETTING INJURED BY THE SAME PK. You see? Since the beginning of the season...PK'ing only five teams, but game by game those five teams playing OTHER teams...you can understand how quickly the PK reached and injured other, un-PK'd team key players. One other item of interest. In the papers today was the headline: "A-Weapons Expert Plane Crash Victim", Boulder City, Nevada (AP "A downdraft that apparently sent a small plane diving into Lake Mead took the life of Atomic Energy Commissioner Theos Thompson, America's top man in nuclear weapons development and testing...Bing Dowdy, who witnessed the crash, said the plane "suddenly nosed straight down into the water as if a giant hand were pushing it." ... "Thompson had come to Las Vegas to visit the test site and speak at a meeting of state legislators about the need for continued nuclear testing." The Si's destroyed Thompson. I warned the U.S. Government some time ago that the Si's would not stand for any more nuclear testing. But more important...I wrote to a good friend, Ross Conklin, in Las Vegas several weeks ago...and told him the Si's might send some UFO's over Nevada...and the Las Vegas area in particular...to give a demonstration! It looks like they've begun. I don't know if you remember or not...but several years ago the same thing happened when the Si's were angry with NASA. A plane flown by an astronaut crashed. A witness said that it seemed like the plane had been knocked straight downward "as if a giant hand had hit it." Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 === **Filename: 7011.pdf** === Page 17 of 17 November 26, 1970, Thanksgiving Dear Max: A report to you on the Cowboy-Packer game today. (Cowboys won.) I controlled the game completely...until the last two minutes. That is, I kept the Cowboys from scoring any touchdowns until the last two minutes...they got only one kick and the score was 3-3 until the last quarter. I held them back from getting a touchdown and they got another kick. The Packers kept making errors...dropped passes and thrown interceptions...and the Cowboys went for another touchdown, which I blocked again, but they got another kick. 9-3. (Let me explain that the Packers had no offense at all. Bart Starr couldn't throw; had an injured arm. And Don Horn, while warming up to replace him, hurt himself on the sidelines and couldn't play. So Starr bumbled all the way.) With two minutes left to play, the Packers had the ball, and a chance, anyway, to do something. Bart Starr threw the ball straight to a Cowboy, on the Packer 30. I guess that was the easiest way to solve his, Starr's problem. The Cowboys went over for an easy touchdown which I couldn't stop, and that was it. But here it is again...the PK was working...even with the Packers dropping passes by the half-dozen and losing horrible yardage with stupid penalties...I still manipulated the game until the last two minutes, allowing no touchdown on the part of the Cowboys, until that time, when it was virtually impossible to block one after the Packers made them a present of the ball close-in. If the teams I'm helping would only take advantage of the many opportunities I give them to win! But they haven't the last half-dozen games! Instead, they fumble and bumble and hand the game over to my PK'd teams. Today, for instance, the Packers had three quarters to make some scores while I was holding back the Cowboys. But all they could do was come up with 3 points. All right. The Cowboys have three games left. If I can beat them one game out of those three...they are out of it. And I will. Looks like I'm going to have a time...keeping the Dolphins, Cowboys and Chiefs away from winning the Pro Championship, the way they're going. But that's my aim. It'll be down to the wire. What they call a cliff-hanger. Best.......... Ted Owens (PK Man) Owens Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. This is irrelevant and immaterial...but I picked up the thought of a madman in New York City today, while watching the Thanksgiving Parade...and this crazy man is thinking of using a rifle with scope to shoot people sniper-style during the Christmas parade. From the top of a tall building, he'll sharpshoot people marching in the Christmas parade. Colored fellow. Bitter against whites. Remember I just called the shot in advance here on a bombing.

When I was a schoolboy, my teachers thought that I was dumb. So did my parents. What they didn't know was...I could read the minds of my teachers, and my schoolmates...I could go out in the streets and "smell" the wind, and tell what was going on in different parts of the small town I lived in...and I could read magazines while in the 1st grade, age 6...at the time my first teacher was trying to get the class to identify letters on small cardboard squares! I can remember it all clearly, and I thought everybody could do what I could do. When Lornie, my daughter, was age 6, she could talk with me, with the authority of a professor of psychology in college, about ESP and its branches and all of its nuances...the word psychokinesis was as common to her as the word table salt. She was an expert on the field of hypnosis and could talk to me for hours on the subject, as equal to equal! (I'd been a pro hypnotist for twenty years!) Yet she did poorly in school in the early grades...just squeaked by...and the same in high school. Now the same thing is occurring...my little boy Beau, age 7, is considered dumb by his teachers. He's restless in class, doesn't follow the teacher, his attention is elsewhere, etc. And I can tell by observing Beau daily...that he is a carbon-copy of me when I was his age! This puzzled me and I was brooding on the strangeness of it recently...when suddenly the SI's communicated, and gave me the entire answer in a lightning-flash! The human thinking apparatus is a complicated maze of "wiring" and "patterns of wiring". The Menses, M's, have a much larger "pattern of wiring" than the normal person, who has a more simplified, smaller "pattern of wiring". And of course, the smaller pattern is easier to activate in the early beginning. The larger pattern, more complicated pattern, takes longer, years longer, to activate! The SI's even gave me mental pictures to show me plainly how it works! They showed me a giant blotter, capable of absorbing water. Beside it was a tiny blotter, capable of absorbing water. Both blotters represented human brains...the giant blotter the more highly-evolved brain...the smaller blotter the simple, uncomplicated brain. If water were poured into the center of the small blotter, then the entire blotter would be saturated quickly. I.e., the child's brain is quickly activated (normal child) and the child functions normally, as the teacher expects the child should. But if water is poured into the center of the giant blotter, representing a child's highly-evolved, and very complicated pattern...then it takes years longer for that blotter to become entirely saturated (activated) to full operating capacity! (Gee, I hope I'm getting this over. It's so easy for me to see in my mind and understand...but getting SI information into English is tough sometimes.) === **Page: 2 of 4** 2 a similar analogy exists in nature. A newborn colt, or puppy, or kitten...etc., having a simple uncomplicated thinking pattern...quickly gets onto its feet, gets its eyes opened, and copes with its environment. Just like the child with a "small mind", or mind that is simple, normal and uncomplicated re coping with its environment quickly...and does better in 1st grade than the child with a "large mind" that is complicated, and will be unable to cope with its environment so quickly because the total brain pattern has to become fully activated! Now, just as the colt or puppy gets into action fast in its environment...in contrast the human baby takes a long time to get into action to cope with its environment, comparatively. I.e., with newborn colt compared with newborn human baby, so as to 1st grader child with small mind pattern compared to 1st grader child with large mind pattern to be activated fully. You see? This is tremendously exciting to me, what the SI's have told me. I surely do wish I could show you the mental pictures the SI's have shown me. Because they actually showed me a mind-pattern in a human. It's like pictures I've seen of the cell set-up; genetic pattern. They also showed me an illness pattern in a human...looks something like a aerial view of a KK maze KKIX below, or one of those puzzles composed of innumerable squares, some with openings, some with none, where you're supposed to draw a pencil line through to the center. (And they showed me how to draw this illness pattern out of a human. Haven't tried it yet.) It has to be transferred to some lesser form of living thing...like a tree, etc. I know this sounds fantastic...but the PX has wrecked football teams...why shouldn't this information be correct! All right, switch thought here. In 1965 I went to CIA in Washington D.C. and told them all about Nature. I also told them at that time that Nature said if I am died or were killed...then the U.S. would be destroyed. I'd always thought they meant either they would do it, or would allow our enemies Russia and China destroy the U.S. BUT in light of your most recent ms., what they've meant (and they've since reminded me time and again of this)...is that if I die or am killed...THEN THERE WILL BE NOBODY TO PROTECT THE U.S. FROM THE PSI WAR JUST BEGINNING WITH RUSSIA AND CHINA! I am, after all, due to their seven years of training, the only human in the world with my psi knowledge and uses of practical application of psi powers to the extent that I can use it. If the U.S. loses that...then the U.S. can be destroyed by Russia and China, as they grow more advanced in how to use it. As primitive as they are with it, and their knowledge, they are getting results in the U.S! Before closing, Otto...just for your special interest...I'd like to tell you how I "flew" on two different occasions, and how I learned to read in one day at the age of six. === **Page: 3 of 4** Correction... "flew" on possibly three occasions. The first time was when I was five. My grandmother, "Queenie", drove across town to a neighbor's house. It was at dusk. She left me in the yard outside, while she went inside. Alone, suddenly I was drawn up into the air. I passed up over the downstairs window...up over the roof of the house...then the next thing I knew I was coming down again, slowly, until I reached the ground in a sitting position. How long I was up in the air, or what happened up there, I don't know. No memory of it at all. But I rushed into the house, greatly excited, and told Queenie about it...but of course she thought I was imagining it, and told me to run back outside and play! The second time...was when I was a teenager. I climbed up on top of a ten-foot diving board at the Country Club swimming pool in Bedford, Indiana, and did a swan dive off the high board. But oddly, I didn't come down. I remained in the swan position, arms outstretched, looking down at the people in the pool...and it seemed as if time were frozen! Finally I came down with a splash. BUT THIS TIME SOMEBODY SAW IT AND CONFIRMED IT! Bob Armstrong, a childhood enemy of mine, said to me when I swam to the edge of the pool, "What happened up there? Seemed like you were up there forever. Thought you never were coming down!" Only he, of the some 20 people around the pool, had seen it and noticed it...BUT HE HAD! It had not been my imagination. This made me greatly excited. The third time was when I was on the Day Star, a Swedish ship sailing out of Frisco for New Caledonia in 1943. Out in the Pacific I was out on deck, up on a hatch, when suddenly I lifted and moved slowly through the air towards the railing. I could see the amazed faces of sailors below me, looking up at me. I must have traveled about ten feet, when slowly I descended to the deck in front of the rail! I turned and all those guys were staring at me. But just like at the swimming pool...they said nothing. It was almost liked they'd all been hypnotized to forget it. Except for Bob Armstrong. Now for learning to read in one day. When I was 5, almost 6, Queenie (again) drove to Oolitic to her mother's house. Her mother was a famous psychic, worked with a ouija board. Queenie left me outside (again) on the front porch, where I swung in the porch swing. Suddenly there was a beautiful redhaired girl in the swing with me...in her 20's. She asked me if I'd like to read, and produced a book. I said yes, but said I don't know how. She laughed musically and put her arm around me and opened the book and read to me for a bit, then she said, "You can read now. Go up inside the house into the attic where you will find some old magazines. You can read them." I ran into the house up into the attic and there was a stack of old western magazines. and a stack of dime novels. I picked up one and began to read about this cowboy on the desert, cooking bacon in his frying pan. It was a whole new world to me. Queenie finally found me up there pouring over the magazines. From that day on I read avidly every magazine I could get my hands on! Then I started school... and the teacher gave me letters on cardboards to learn to identify, the cardboards to put into words. I told her I didn't need to === **Page: 4 of 4** 4 do all that...because I already could read. She sneered and laughed at me...went to the blackboard and wrote "apple" on it and asked me what that meant. Suddenly, and with no reason, I said "cow" although I knew exactly what the word was. So she told me to go outside and stand in the hall, as punishment for lying. By age 8 I'd read all the books in the Bedford library on voodoo and ESP. Not only that...I put the knowledge to use. The other kid gangs fought each other with rocks. I taught my gang to take match sticks, split the ends, insert playing card fins, insert a needle into the other end...and blow them through copper tubing at the other gangs! Things like that. I used voodoo on my brother Jack...and he got sick...and my mother, Carol Owens (who has always hated me and been my vicious enemy from the beginning) will confirm that! She lives at 855 Hinnan Avenue, Evanston, Illinois. But she remembers. I used real voodoo techniques on my brother Jack...and he got sick...and my mother came to me and begged me to stop so that Jack would get well! And I was only 7-8 at the time. This in a tiny country town in Indiana where lots of the kids ran barefooted. By the time I was a teenager I'd read all the books in the large library in Bedford...and was having the librarian send to Indianapolis, the state capitol, for more books! I'd read three full books in an evening. This just to give you an idea of how that redhaired lady got me off to a running start by teaching me "instant reading". Somehow, it's sort of like when Cayce slept with a book under his pillow and when he woke, knew what was in it. Yet different. But somewhere in there...lies the same magic.

I could do a bang-up job of teaching all of the aspects of ESP and hypnosis and autohypnosis! Because I have had over thirty years of experience in using these parapsychological functions! What I know...and could teach...would be worth more than gold and diamonds. I know techniques to use in hypnosis not known to any other living human. Trained thousands with the techniques. I could teach the students telepathic and psychokinetic experiments they've never seen or heard of. And so on. And I could add to the course...invaluable material that would inspire and motivate the students to go over, under or through all obstacles...to get what they want out of life. (But to first find out what they want out of life.) I know it's ridiculous to suggest it...but I am suggesting it, anyway. as a freshman in 1946 (& I was 26) For instance while at Duke, our psychology prof made the statement that the human ear couldn't hear a silent dog whistle. I immediately stood up...and told the prof of an experiment I'd conducted over the summer months...of placing a subject behind a jazz orchestra, where the music was deafening, and conditioned to hear a silent dog whistle over the loud music. I stood fifty feet away in front of the band, and blew a silent dog whistle in patterns of longs and shorts...following a script I'd jotted down. At the conclusion of the the whistle blowing I went behind the band, wakened the girl...and compared my pre-notebook jottings that I'd followed with her jottings under hypnosis. They were absolutely the same! Under hypnosis she'd picked out the silent dog whistle sound unerringly through the roaring noise of hot jazz music up close! The prof was intrigued and we became close friends. Anyway, nothing ventured nothing gained, eh? Just thought I'd ask. No reply necessary, really. I can guess what you'd say to this proposition. But there's only one human in the world with my ability and capacity...and it would be nice, if I could teach some of it before I depart this earth.

I respect your desire to demonstrate your abilities, and your willingness to submit information to a wide variety of persons. As you know, the question of a position at this University is "up in the cards". As you indicate, the hiring of University personnel is based upon a wide variety of criteria: academic, ethical, and experience factors. There are a few Universities which offer specific courses in parapsychology and hypnosis. My own work is primarily that of counseling psychology, although I do conduct an informal course on self-hypnosis and I often give lectures on parapsychology, hypnosis, and UFO research. These activities, however, are primarily "for free" and I intend to help others to learn, as well as to increase the total contribution of the University. Also, as you say, the degree is the main requirement. It may be true that there is only "one human in the world with your ability and capacity", if so, I hope that your experiences are available to those persons who want to learn more about them. Of course, I believe that each person is unique and has something to offer to his fellow man. Perhaps a written description of your experiences will help to provide this sense of satisfaction that you would gain from knowing that other people can learn from your abilities and your experiences.

Do you Eagles think for a minute... that after losing 16 games straight... you could beat Miami, one of the toughest in the NFL, without PK Man's help? Ha! Fer...git it! Sunday, Nov. 8, 1970 Dr. Sprinkle The Philadelphia Eagles Before your game today with the Miami Dolphins...the TV announcer (I had the game live on TV) said you'd lost 16 games straight...and maybe you'd put it all together today. I'm telling you now...YOU didn't put it all togehher...I put you all together today...in order to beat the Dolphins...exactly as I outlined it to you and all my contacts in my letter of last week. I used PK your team as a hammer to beat the Dolphins, who are higher in the ratings than you are. (What team isn't?) Since you are both PK'd teams, one of you had to lose. I chose the Miami Dolphins to lose. Today I also had, simultaneously, the Cowboys and Giants, on radio...and this is most interesting. I beat the Cowboys all right, just as I planned to do. BUT...after the Eagles had gotten 24 points I figured things were safe to beat the Dolphins, so I switched over to the radio to concentrate on the Cowboys for a while. When I switched back to TV, the Dolphins had almost tied you. UP TO THE TIME I SWITCHED TO THE RADIO...THE DOLPHINS COULD NOT DO ANYTHING. As soon as I went away from that game to the Cowboys' game, then the Dolphins began to score against the Eagles. Get the idea? Anyway, I got back onto your game...and "froze" it so that you could win over the Dolphins. I'm not being nice to you at all...just knocking the Dolphins off from getting to that championship. AS A MATTER OF FACT...because your Eagles' secretary called me a "nut" on the phone last week, and because Jim Smart printed that you keep my correspondence in the "junk file"...I am going to put a lot of extra english on my "attack PK" against the Eagles in the weeks to come. I'll teach you to respect PK Man! Today I also beat the Jets, using the Steelers as a hammer. I missed on the Chiefs, because the Oilers were too weak. Here's a true story I tried to give to Larry Bonko last week...but he didn't return my call. So I'll give it to everybody. It's by Robert Sylvester, New York Daily News, November 5, 1970. Seems that Al Woodall, of the Jets, dismayed because of the PK jinx...and playing in place of Namath, who got injured...joined a coven of witches in New York, for protection and for good luck. The witches told him, in order to beat the PK jinx, to yell "kazunt" whenever he passed. But secretly the witches tipped off the Giants (this was last Sunday when the Giants beat the Jets) and whenever Woodall tried to pass, yelling "kazunt!"...the Giants were running at him yelling "kazunt!" Hilarious. It's a true story. Today Woodall got injured in the Steeler's game. Now the Jets are down to no quarterbacks at all. How PK'd can you get? Now if you Eagles think you won a game today, forget it. "That 'ole black magic" will be smiting you in the future weeks...until you play Miami or Dallas or KC Chiefs. Then I might help you out again. In the meantime...the Lord help you. Owen Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Va. 23514 === **Page: 2 of 9** NOVEMBER 10, 1970, Tuesday TO ALL NFL PRO FOOTBALL TEAMS This is Ted Owens (PK Man). In last August and September issues of Saga magazine it was discussed how I had ruined the Philadelphia Eagles with my mind, and through contact with UFO intelligences. There will be two more articles in Saga this coming March and April. Also, a book has just been published, and you can find it on your drugstore bookstand, a Lancer Book, called "The Seers Predict For 1971", by Brad Steiger. It is a book about "America's greatest psychics". The book discusses my work. Reason for this letter...last night on nationally-televised Colts-Packers game the announcers were discussing the "incredible wave of injuries of pro football players this year"...never before encountered on such a scale. I want to make sincere apologies to all pro teams for these injuries. They are my doing. It was necessary to bring this about...in order to demonstrate for certain scientists and government agencies...what my mind can do. And this was the only way. In my letter to my 30 contacts on June 13, 1970 (scientists, govt. agencies, lawyers and others) I stated the following: "This coming fall...the SI's (UFO intelligences) are going to "PK" all football stadiums where pro football teams will play...which will cause freak accidents and injuries...and have the effect of causing pro football teams to be regular traveling hospital wards." This communication was also sent to the Sports Desk of the Phila. Daily News, 400 N. Broad street, Phila., Pa., Messrs. Cushman and Hochman. I also informed my contacts at that time that I would single out five NFL teams...Chiefs, Jets, Cowboys, Eagles and Dolphins...and with my mind keep them away from the Pro Championship this year. When the Miami Dolphins won a lot, I wrote Cushman and Hochman once more, and told them I would now take the Dolphins apart and begin their losing...and since I told them that, they've begun losing big. (Last Sunday on TV I used PK on every play to beat the Dolphins, using the Eagles as a "hammer". I succeeded. Obviously, the weak and winless Eagles, after having lost 16 games, were not about to beat the powerful Dolphins, one of the best in the NFL, without my PK entering into it.) And incidentally...that letter referred to above of June 13, 1970, also was given to a court reporter on that day...who swore out an affidavit for it and signed it. So it is on record...that my intent, through the SI's, was to cause "an incredible wave of pro football injuries." But I am sorry to have had to do it, even for a scientific experiment. Sincerely, Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CBS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. I used PK to beat the Packers, last night, to shove the Dolphins farther back in the ratings. === **Page: 3 of 9** ember 3, 1970 TO ALL CONTACTS You've all just witnessed...a clear-cut, beautiful demonstration of my "PK" attacking several pro football teams this past Sunday. Now I want you to get one thing in mind...remember several years ago when reporters took me to a zoo and I had Woodeshick thrown out of the game...by using my mind to do it? It is thoroughly documented. The reporters wrote it up at the time. Now, Woodeshick lost his temper, ran onto the field and hit a player. There was a fight. I.e., the "PK" manipulated several humans into a fight to get the desired result. In yesterday's Ledger-Star was the heading: "Brawls Affect Outcome of Two Pro Games." Yep. Both pro games were my PK'd targets! The Giants were behind and in danger of losing...so lo and behold a fight, which so angered the Giants they scored 16 points in only 2 minutes...to win the game. Here again, a fight...to obtain the desired result. The other game was even more interesting...I had it on TV...and the Chiefs were ahead, with only about a minute to play. I asked the SI's for a miracle to happen so that the Chiefs wouldn't win. But...the Chiefs had the ball. Suddenly Otis Taylor, a Chief, punched a Raider in the nose (here again a fight) and both teams fought for about eight minutes. The referees got all confused and forgot where the ball had been. They got even more confused...(and the game would have been over) then they first penalized the Raiders and the game would have been over) then they reversed the decision and penalized the Chiefs. This gave the Raiders the ball...they kicked a field goal...tied the Chiefs...which cost the Chiefs a vital victory in the Western Division race! The result I was after! The Chief's coach, Stram, then ran into the dressing room of the referees and bawled out Finley, the referee who changed his mind re the penalty...and the referee ran Stram out of the room, yelling at Stram "Don't you call me a crook!" "Get out of here!" So you see...the PK used fights in both games to pull out a win and a tie for my "side". Just like the PK used a fight to get Woodeshick out. This was the second Sunday in a row that I was able to get to Miami first, then to Kansas City. Previous Sunday I had both on TV, and beat them both. Blanked out Miami. This Sunday I got Miami on the radio and blanked them out again. Miami can't understand why it's had a goose egg two games in a row. It's because I handled them personally by TV and radio. Two PK'd teams played each other...Cowboys and Eagles. Now, the PK has grown so strong onto the Eagles...that only my personal presence at an Eagle game could offset the attacking PK. I tried to get the Eagles to get me to Dallas, so I could use the Eagles as a "hammer" on the Cowboys, but they wouldn't, so they got beaten. "Long-distance" or "absent" PK isn't strong enough to help the Eagles; but it sure will wreck the Eagles! My PK attacks make for crazy, weird games...and I guess you really saw that in the Giants-Jets and KC Chiefs-Raiders games, yes? My personal control over these pro football teams...via my mind...is awesome. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Va. 23514 === **Page: 4 of 9** Monday, November 15, 1970 Dear Otto: Have just made a fascinating discovery! MY ABILITY TO USE PK IS IN DIRECT PROPORTION TO MY PHYSICAL STATUS! Let me explain. The week previously I beat two pro teams simultaneously, one on TV and one on radio...then beat another pro team on TV. The following night I beat the Packers with PK on TV. But then...I got the flu. This last Saturday I was weak with flu, body ached, sneezed constantly, soaked one handkerchief after another with runny nose...the next day, Sunday, I had the Chiefs on TV, followed by the Jets on TV. Sneezing and blowing my nose...I pk'd the Chiefs first, play by play...managed to get two key players out of the game, managed to get the ball time and again to the Steelers, on freak mishaps from the Chiefs...but the Steelers bumbled and simply gave the ball back again to the Chiefs time and again. (In this case the PK doesn't help the helped team at all...for they negate it.) And the Chiefs won. By the time the first game was over I was too weak to continue, a rarity for me. I flopped into bed and simply watched the Jets game...without trying to PK it. The Jets beat the hell out of the Rams. An upset. Furthermore, the Miami Dolphins ran all over the Saints, and beat the Saints down in Miami. Another upset. Actually, although three of my five target teams won...which is bad for my average...it was good in one way, because with me sick, and the PK weak and not working much...it could easily be seen what a tremendous job I've been doing in beating these powerhouse teams...because yesterday, relatively unhindered by me, they turned loose their normal games and whopped the daylights out of their opponents! Today, Monday, I feel a little stronger...at least this morning...and tonight am going to try to get up enough power to beat the Cowboys on TV with PK. The flu, for the past seven days, has been putting me to bed about five in the afternoon, weak and sick. But tonight am going to have to have enough moxy to beat the Cowboys, who are high in the ratings. I know you don't understand this pro game stuff, but actually it's one of the clearest and best indicators of how PK works...can be observed and the results evaluated. Was horrified by another football team being wiped out...Marshall. Also by the abnormal storm that hit Pakistan. Ugh. Maybe I should throw my signed affidavits away on those. Best to you..... Ted Owens (PK Man) Owens === **Page: 5 of 9** P.S. Don't know if you know it or not...but the Marshall team being wiped out...wasn't the only football team endangered this weekend. Only a hundred miles away the University of Kentucky football team, on an airplane, was almost wiped out when a smaller plane crashed onto the airfield near their plane! It was a near miss. All those in the smaller plane, a Jet Commander, were killed. I think this occurred the same evening the Marshall thing happened. It was in the papers; both of these occurrences. === **Page: 6 of 9** Dr Sprinkle November 22, 1970 Dear Dr. Vogel, alias Max: Let me report you the action. Last week...for PK purposes...I was knocked out with the flu. Yesterday, Saturday, I was ill again and had to go to bed in the afternoon. But today, Sunday, I arose early and geared up for the afternoon pro football games. And I made a mistake. improvise At 1 p.m. the Cowboys were on Channel 3, the Dolphins on Channel 10. Both "target" teams. So I had to improvise as they say in jazz. I figured I could half the PK force...half on the Cowboys game, half on the Dolphins. So that's what I did...and worked the Cowboys game for a while, but since the score was 9 to 10 or something like that, I figured it was safe...and went to the Dolphins game. While I'd been PK'ing the Cowboys, the Dolphins had scored twice and were way ahead. That made me reconsider, so I returned to the Cowboys game and removed the PK there and transferred it to the Dolphins game...so that I'd have all the PK force concentrated on that game...since it was more important to stop the Dolphins than the Cowboys. In other words, in trying to control both TV games simultaneously, the Dolphins got out of hand and scored fast (which they are capable of...although I shut them out, blanked them, three weeks straight not long ago). Then matters got worse. The Colts dropped their passes, fumbled the ball time and again...and literally gave the game away. At least three times they could have had touchdowns...and fumbled it away. PK cannot help when that occurs. And the Dolphins won big. I was cussing. I turned to find out how the Cowboys had done since I'd left them early in the game...and found out that, unchecked by PK, they'd scored 45 points and won! So...I lost that round...and turned to the next game, the Kansas City Chiefs. I stopped the Chiefs good. They couldn't make one touchdown in the game. Just kicked a couple of field goals. The Cardinals were on the KC Chiefs 3, and fumbled the ball to the damn Chiefs...giving away a certain touchdown...and the game ended in a tie, 6-6. But of course to me it was a win...because it meant the Chiefs didn't win...thus they didn't advance in the ratings race. (Keep in mind that my goal is not week to week wins or losses...it is to keep the "target 3" from winning the world's Pro Championship this year. And that's what all the teams are after. So a tie to KC Chiefs was as good as a loss, and since the Cardinals did not lose, they kept their lead over the Cowboys! So it worked out great anyway. A great big plus was: I asked the SI's to get out some key Dolphins with injuries...and wham! Believe it or not...they carried four, that is four, key 1st team players off the field (Dolphins), two of which were kick, the star runner, and Warfield, their star pass catcher. The Cowboys also lost Charlie Taylor, their star pass catcher, with a broken collar bone. That will hold these two teams back even more in the race to the championship. I'm not even bothering with the Jets, since they are out of it. I wouldn't bother with the Eagles, either, because they are out of it...but they insulted me recently...so I'll attack them when I get them on TV, just for the hell of it, to do what damage I can to them. I'll hit them tomorrow night (Monday night) when they play the Giants. Best...... Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CBS, Norfolk, Va. 23514 === **Page: 7 of 9** November 26, 1970, Thanksgiving Dear Max: A report to you on the Cowboy-Packer game today. (Cowboys won.) I controlled the game completely...until the last two minutes. That is, I kept the Cowboys from scoring any touchdowns until the last two minutes...they got only one kick and the score was 3-3 until the last quarter. I held them back from getting a touchdown and they got another kick. The Packers kept making errors...dropped passes and thrown interceptions...and the Cowboys went for another touchdown, which I blocked again, but they got another kick. 9-3. (Let me explain that the Packers had no offense at all. Bart Starr couldn't throw, had an injured arm. And Don Horn, while warming up to replace him, hurt himself on the sidelines and couldn't play. So Starr bumbled all the way.) With two minutes left to play, the Packers had the ball, and a chance, anyway, to do something. Bart Starr threw the ball straight to a Cowboy, on the Packer 30. I guess that was the easiest way to solve his, Starr's problem. The Cowboys went over for an easy touchdown which I couldn't stop, and that was it. But here it is again...the PA was working...even with the Packers dropping passes by the half-dozen and losing horrible yardage with stupid penalties...I still manipulated the game until the last two minutes, allowing no touchdown on the part of the Cowboys, until that time, when it was virtually impossible to block one after the Packers made them a present of the ball close-in. If the teams I'm helping would only take advantage of the many opportunities I give them to win! But they haven't the last half-dozen games! Instead, they fumble and bumble and hand the game over to my PK'd teams. Today, for instance, the Packers had three quarters to make some scores while I was holding back the Cowboys. But all they could do was come up with 3 points. All right. The Cowboys have three games left. If I can beat them one game out of those three...they are out of it. And I will. Looks like I'm going to have a time...keeping the Dolphins, Cowboys and Chiefs away from winning the Pro Championship, the way they're going. But that's my aim. It'll be down to the wire. What they Best..... Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. This is irrelevant and immaterial...but I picked up the thought of a madman in New York City today, while watching the Thanksgiving parade...and this crazy man is thinking of using a rifle with scope to shoot people sniper-style during the Christmas parade. From the top of a tall building, he'll sharpshoot people marching in the Christmas parade. Colored fellow. Bitter against whites. Remember I just called the shot in advance here on a bombing. === **Page: 8 of 9** Thanksgiving, Nov. 26, 1970 TO ALL CONTACTS This is a VERY IMPORTANT COMMUNICATION. Today...I attacked the Dallas Cowboys with PK, in their game with the Packers. The PK successfully controlled the Cowboys for three quarters, with the score still 3-3; i.e., the PK had not allowed the Cowboys to score a single touchdown in three quarters, and part of the 4th, too. BUT...the Packers had bumbled and fumbled away THEIR chances to make a touchdown for 3 quarters. The Cowboys finally won. I was puzzled. You have to remember...since 1965, for five years, I've been PK'ing pro football teams successfully, and consistently, with some misses, but darn few. UP UNTIL TWO WEEKS AGO. Something weird began to happen...my PK worked on the target team, all right, in every game...yet the un-PK'd team ALSO bumbled and fumbled away its chances. At first I thought it was just a coincidence. But when half a dozen good teams like the Colts and Redskins do it in a row...I knew something was wrong. I determined to find out. Tonight I set up communications with Control of the Si's, and presented the problem to them. The answer they gave me in a few minutes...was shocking to me. Actually, I should have guessed it. A bit of background before filling you in on it. Several years ago I gave two demonstrations, at different times, of causing earthquakes and hurricanes and the like, around the world. What happened was fantastic. All over the world quakes and volcanoes came alive and typhoons and hurricanes ripped and roared. And floods, too. There was no doubt that it was an unusual series; no doubt at all. They were two, clear-cut demonstrations. Well, in Saga magazine you read how I'd told Otto Binder and my Contacts last spring...that coming up would be an "earthquake summer" with terrible floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, and such, around the world...as a demonstration of Si power. Since that time Europe has had unprecedented floods; San Antonio was struck by a hurricane and greatly damaged; Peru had a devastating earthquake...the worst in its history, I believe; and more recently the Phillipines have been struck by two typhoons in as many weeks, being the worst in its history; also Pakistan was just struck by a hurricane...called in the papers one of the "worst natural disasters in history." All these, obviously, were not JUST ordinary quakes, etc. Well, some months ago I contacted the Si's, alarmed at the loss of life with this demonstration, and asked them about it. They answered and told me THAT MY MIND HAD INCREASED ITS POWER AND SO THE PHENOMENA HAD INCREASED IN ITS INTENSITY, PROPORTIONATELY. All right. Tonight they told me that that was what was my problem with my THIS time with my pro football demonstrations. TOO MUCH POWER WITH MY MIND. (This was interesting...I had thought THEY were doing it; they told me that I was doing it, and this is the point I'd laughed at Zakow, the astrophysicist about, when he said it was my mind doing it. I couldn't believe that. But the Si's say it is my mind. To be sure I understood, I asked them to give me an analogy in mental pictures. They quickly obliged. (This is a technique I often use with them.) In short, they said if I went to your home, where you kept a goldfish in a tank, and dropped a large lighted firecracker in the fishtank...it would stun the fish. (This compared to what I WAS doing in PK'ing teams on a football field.) Then they said: but suppose I go to your home, and light a stick of DYNAMITE and drop it in the fishtank...it would blow up your house! To clarify further...it seems, according to them, that my mind has recently increased its power so much...that in PK'ing ONE TEAM my mind is also affecting the OTHER TEAM simultaneously. === **Page: 9 of 9** 2 There is just too much power issuing from my mind, blanketing the football field. Both teams are now affected. And this explains the mystery that is currently puzzling the pro football world...how come the unprecedented number of injuries this year. You see, while PK'ing a target team, such as the Jets...I ask the PK force to injure key players and get them out of the game, or the season. Out went Namath, Snell, Boozer, and lots of others. But while I was doing that, other teams were playing them. Since my power now is overlapping the other team as well...THEN THE PLAYERS OF THE OTHER TEAM ARE ALSO GETTING INJURED BY THE SAME PK. You see? Since the beginning of the season...PK'ing only five teams, but game by game those five teams playing OTHER teams...you can understand how quickly the PK reached and injured other, un-PK'd team key players. One other item of interest. In the papers today was the headline: "A-Weapons Expert Plane Crash Victim", Boulder City, Nevada (AP A downdraft that apparently sent a small plane diving into Lake Mead took the life of Atomic Energy Commissioner Theos Thompson, America's top man in nuclear weapons development and testing...Bing Dowdy, who witnessed the crash, said the plane "suddenly nosed straight down into the water as if a giant hand were pushing it." ..."Thompson had come to Las Vegas to visit the test site and speak at a meeting of state legislators about the need for continued nuclear testing." The Si's destroyed Thompson. I warned the U.S. Government some time ago that the Si's would not stand for any more nuclear testing. But more important...I wrote to a good friend, Ross Conklin, in Las Vegas several weeks ago...and told him the Si's might send some UFO's over Nevada...and the Las Vegas area in particular...to give a demonstration! It looks like they've begun. I don't know if you remember or not...but several years ago the same thing happened when the Si's were angry with NASA. A plane flown by an astronaut crashed. A witness said that it seemed like the plane had been knocked straight downward "as if a giant hand had hit it."

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Filename: 7012.pdf** === Page 1 of 8 December 5, 1970..........TO ALL CONTACTS You-all probably read about it last week in the papers. It was all over the papers. LANCE RENTZEL, Cowboys star...and one of the best pass-catchers in all of pro football history...did a crazy thing. He pulled his pants open and exposed his genitals to a 10-year-old-girl. And the police got him. And he faces a possible 20-year jail sentence. (Please, at this point: nobody mention the "vagaries" of pro football to me. How many other star players on nonPK'd teams have been arrested by the police this year in pro football? Answer: None. He's the only one. I'm talking about a serious charge, now...not a traffic ticket.) Now I'd like to quote you from Jim Smart's write-up about me, copy of which I sent you...the "weird Ted" one. "The PK works in a thousand ways. It will get the coach fired, make the owner go bankrupt. It's a huge, monumental jinx". So the Cowboys now have lost half of their team's punch...Bob Hayes being the other half. They are now about half as effective, really, as they were. Because Lance Rentzel was so great...his just being in the game worried the other team to death. But his pass-catching was a thing of genius. No more, however. Now, you might argue thusly: Why, Owens, your attempt to take five teams apart, over a period of time, with PK...could have nothing to do with Lance Rentzel's doing a crazy thing like that (when he's married to a movie star, has everything). I'll simply refer you to a column Stan Hochman wrote about me several years ago...after he'd taken me to a football game, and I'd sent PK after one man, Tom Woodeshick (telling the PK to get Woody out of the game) and in ten minutes Woodeshick rushed out onto the field, hit a Cowboy in the face...and was thrown out of the game, by the officials. In his write-up, Stan Hochman said: "But what flash of insanity provoked him (Woodeshick) to rush off the bench with his fists flurrying. Ted Owens did it. Honest." And Hochman confirmed that I'd done what I said I'd do...get Woodeshick out. Several weeks ago...during a Cowboys game on TV that I was watching, I asked the "PK force" to get Rentzel and Hayes out for the season. (I meant, of course, with some small injury.) Well, it sure did, with Rentzel. (I've requested the PK force to get Rentzell off, somehow. Because I wouldn't want him to go to prison. I would not want to put the Cowboys down with PK...at the price of another man's freedom.) Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens Thanks for your letter. Been a "PK lull" lately. Things will perk up. === **Filename: 7012.pdf** === Page 2 of 8 Monday, December 7, 1970 TO ALL CONTACTS Those of you who watched the Oakland Raiders/Jets game yesterday, I want to say that you are lucky. You saw one of my finest "PK" efforts. A miracle happen. It went this way. The Raiders/Jets game was the only game I could get on TV...containing one of the "fatal five". In addition to wishing to beat the Jets, I wanted Oakland to boost its lead over the Chiefs, or at least hold its own with the Chiefs in the standings. Well, the game was very frustrating. Like so many of the Target Team games these past few weeks, this one was the same. The PK worked on the Jets all right...yet Lamonica of the Raiders seemed bent and determined upon throwing the game away for the Raiders. He passed time and again straight to the Jet players. Sometimes there wasn't a Raider around the Jet receiver on the interception. Well, there were only eight seconds to go in the game...and the Raiders had to have a touchdown to win (by one point). I asked the PK intelligence on the field to please give me a miracle (I heartily dislike to invest several hours of PK work, intense concentration, and then fail). With a second left, Lamonica hauled off and threw the ball into the end zone. One single Raider was standing there, surrounded by three Jet players. Sure enough, Lamonica was being consistent. The ball zinged its way straight to a Jet player. The player caught the ball in his hands...then the ball leaped like a wounded rabbit out of his hands...over his shoulder...and into the hands of the surprised Oakland Raider player, for a Raider touchdown. And the Raiders won by one point. And I got my miracle from the PK intelligence on the field. (For those of you who've wondered how Blanda, week in and week out, for five straight games...won by a "miracle" in seconds each game...this is your answer. The PK is trying to drive the Raiders ahead of the powerful Chiefs). Anyway, after this touchdown, and the game won for the Raiders, the TV announcer said the Raider coach was in deep shock from the thing. You'd have had to have seen the poetic beauty of it...to really understand and appreciate it. The football acted with intelligence and direction. This was PK at its best, it's very best. And you'd better believe it! Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens === **Filename: 7012.pdf** === Page 3 of 8 Dec. 12, 1970 Dr. Hynek. Dr. Sprinkle For some time...I have been looking for a situation...where I could demonstrate the psi powers that I have...without a destructive basis. I.e., do something constructive in a way that would be significant. Such has presented itself. Now, I am taking seriously the advice that Dr. Sprinkle gave you, which was to "work closely" with me. Otherwise I wouldn't be writing at this moment. In the paper today is an article "Birds Back In Greater Numbers". The article points out that approx. 12 million blackbirds, cowbirds, starlings and grackles now occupy a 40-acre pine woods at Scotland Neck, North Carolina. The Mayor requested state and federal help...but has been informed he cannot have any due to shortage of federal funds. My proposal: To use some of the 150-odd psi abilities which I possess... to make the birds leave almost immediately, and never come back. Two things there. Now, I feel that to do this properly...I should be in that 40-acre area. Ordinarily...I do my psi work from anywhere at all, since there is no limiting factor re time and space in psi work. However, I can put to use several more of my psi abilities...if I am there physically. Now this is something that is strange to me...forcing 12 million birds to get out and then not come back. Not the medium that I've been using. BUT...I'd like to try the experiment; and feel that I could be successful with it. Among the various methods of psi that I would employ...would be the communication between myself and the birds, also the communication between myself and the "instinct" that brings the birds there, which of course must necessarily have intelligence...thus can be communicated with. All in all...I would employ 15 to 20 various psi methods in the experiment. I have no car to get there. So I would have to be driven there. It would have to be from Tuesday to Friday...I'm quite occupied at this time on the weekends. Also the day I would lose from work, I can't afford to lose...$20 means a lot to my family. So that missing $20 would be a problem to us. As you might surmise...I am severely handicapped in demonstrating my abilities for scientific study, because of having no money to travel, no time to travel, and no way to travel. With my abilities, understandably, the world is actually my test-tube.

But unusual situations require unusual measures. My name is Ted Owens. In this months' Saga Magazine now on the stands, you will read that I am one of 19 of this country's top psychics. That is, there are 19 top psychics in the United States...and I am one of the 19. In Brad Steiger's book, "What The Seers Predict For 1971", now on the stands, about America's greatest psychics...you will find a chapter on my work. Coming up in March and April '71 will be two more articles in Saga Magazine on my work. And National Enquirer is planning to do an article on my work, I have been told. In brief: I am a master...the ONLY master...of what is called "psi power" in scientific circles, in the United States. I have produced and documented over 200 miracles; thus miracles have become commonplace to me. Am sure that I can bring about two things: (1) Cause all of the birds in Scotland Neck (and the rest of North Carolina) to leave, not to return this winter or spring. And (2) Cause those same birds to stay away from your area completely from here on out in time. If you are interested, here is what to do: Arrange for transportation for me to Scotland Neck. A bus will do, or whatever. Arrange for a place to stay for me for three days, plus food. Arrange for a member of the town to drive me out to where the birds nest at night, each night for three nights. (Oh, and when I arrive in Scotland Neck you will give me $200 to cover my time and effort involved). Also my bus ticket or whatever will be round-trip, to get me back to Norfolk. If I am successful in making all of the birds leave Scotland Neck within 30 days...that is, 30 days from the time of my 3-day attack on them...you will send me a check to Norfolk for a thousand dollars. I.e., when I attack the birds, they might leave immediately...or it might take two or three weeks to get the job done. (I'll be gone home; but the power I leave there will keep on working and accelerating). If you would like to check with someone who knows of my work... you can call Mr. Otto Binder, famous author, who is completely familiar with my work.

I've kept my promise...by beating you with my mind (see Saga Magazine, August and September 1970; also coming March and April Saga)...and NOW YOU KNOW PK MAN. ---------- TO THE PHILADELPHIA EAGLES Several years ago, when Jerry Wolman still owned your team...Stan Hochman asked me, face to face, if a change in the ownership of the Eagles...plus a new coach...plus new personnel...could stop my PK attack on the Eagles. I told him then, instantly...that it could not stop the PK attack. Result: You've had a new coach; new owner; new personnel...and you are 3-10-1 on the season. How very lousy can you get? As I told Stan then, and as I tell you now...NOTHING can stop my mind from beating you, year in and year out. ---------- TO THE NEW YORK JETS I wrote you and told you at the beginning of the season...that this year I would beat your team with my mind...by causing injuries to key members of your team...take it apart slowly...so that it could not win the pro championship. You had your entire backfield wiped out...Namath, Snell, etc., AND YOU JUST HAD THE WORST SEASON OF YOUR ENTIRE HISTORY. Any questions? NOW YOU TOO KNOW PK MAN. ---------- I've never tried to stop five teams before in a season with my mind. There are two teams left. Miami and Dallas. I've eliminated three.

Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 === **Filename: 7012.pdf** === Page 6 of 8 Date: 12/28/70 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I received a letter from Ted Owens (PK Man) on November 5, 1970, as follows: "Dear Ross: For the first time...you are going to be able to see...what the real, terrible powers of the Si's are. Not controlling pro football teams now, nor making storms, or making lightning strike, or UFO's appear. This is big, really big. THE SI'S ARE GOING TO MAKE IT HORRIBLE AND IMPOSSIBLE...FOR PEOPLE TO LIVE, OR EVEN STAY, IN THE STATE OF NEVADA. The "bullseye" will be Las Vegas, Nevada...where the Si's will be nearby, unseen, beaming down certain rays to offset the laws of chance...and influence visitors' minds to literally hate Las Vegas...to leave Las Vegas and never come back. Also there will be a UFO near Reno, doing the same thing. There will be two other UFO's moving around, running other people out of other parts of Nevada. NEVADA WILL BE IN TIME AHEAD THE MOST ISOLATED STATE OF THE UNION. From now on, everything will go wrong in Nevada. The state will lose money, even go broke. (Yes, even with the gambling). People will be unhappy, miserable, unlucky, there. They will want to leave, without knowing why, even. Especially in Las Vegas and Reno. The weather will get freaky and bad. EVERYTHING will get bad in Nevada. No people...will wish to stay, and they will move out. The water will get bad, and scarce. Illness and sickness will spread. Cause unknown. This will be one of the most marked demonstrations that the Si's have ever given. And if the thugs and hoods think that by eliminating me, PK Man with a "hit"...they are badly mistaken. Nothing can call this back, or reverse this, except me, PK Man...the only human who can talk and communicate with the Si's. So if I'm gone... so is Nevada forever...with no chance of recall. This will be a modern "Sodom and Gomorrah" demonstration...with the only difference being in method. And as far as I am concerned...it couldn't happen to a better place. For I've been there, and know the place. Ugh and ickh. The only persons who will be safe in Nevada...will be those carrying a Si disc. They will not be affected. All other people...will be made to leave Nevada as surely as positive and negative poles reject each other. I have no way of knowing what the time factor on this will be. We'll have to see. But the outcome is as certain...as my PK === **Filename: 7012.pdf** === Page 7 of 8 2 work on pro football teams. /S/ Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 This is to certify that I have this letter in my files, and I have quoted it word for word. Also, I live in Las Vegas...it is my home. One week after receiving this letter from Owens...there was a riot in downtown Las Vegas, in the rich casino district, involving a hundred negros. Fighting spread throughout a twelve-block area, and twelve people were hurt. Windows were broken, purses were snatched and cars were smashed with rocks and bottles. Sixty-five policemen tried, unsuccessfully, to stop all the rioting. (This was 7 days after Owens' letter). Two weeks later, Atomic Energy Commissioner Theos Thompson, America's top man in nuclear weapons development and testing, was killed while visiting Las Vegas to speak at a meeting of the state legislators in favor of continued nuclear testing... in a plane crash at nearby Lake Mead. A boat captain who witnessed the crash said that Thompson's plane was flying over the lake when it suddenly nosed straight down into the water "as if a giant hand was pushing it." (This blow to America's nuclear program came exactly twenty-one days after I received Owens' letter.) At about this same time, Howard Hughes, internationally famous financier...suddenly left Las Vegas, where he had been staying for years at the Desert Inn...reputedly to go to the Brittania Hotel, 6th Floor, on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Following the departure of Hughes...all hell broke loose in Las Vegas. The people working for Hughes in Las Vegas (Hughes owns several of the biggest gambling casinos) split into two factions and began fighting with each other (legally). Then it got into the newspapers...all of this trouble...plus the fact that Hughes had discovered there were gangsters that had infiltrated into his gambling operations, and that his gambling games had been corrupted. (Bad bad publicity for Las Vegas). All of this mess, which has been brought to national attention in the newspapers...is still going on. And on December 13, 1970, the following article appeared in national newspapers: "U.S. Agents Raid Gambling In 26 Cities". ...."A prime target was Las Vegas, Nevada, where agents arrested two executives of plush Caesars Palace, a gambling casino... Three Las Vegas betting houses were raided...A department spokesman said Sandford Waterman, executive vice president of === **Filename: 7012.pdf** === Page 8 of 8 3 Caesars Palace, was arrested at the casino and Elliott Paul Price, casino executive host, was arrested in his car in Las Vegas. ( This action took place just a little over a month after receiving Owens' letter ) It seem to me to be obvious, then that summing up all that has happened... since receiving Owens' letter... that Owens' letter was absolutely accurate. It is also my belief that Owens' did in fact bring this all about... simply because nothing like this has or had happened before Owens' letter. ---------- I state that this notarized document is true and accurate in its entirety.

EDITORIAL Why must we always assess the intelligence of UFO-flying space travellers by our own limited knowledge and claim they utilize some complicated means of propulsion? Could they not already, centuries ago perhaps, have gone through the various 'ages' from which this planet has emerged, and now reverted to the simple medium of gravity for their driving force? Perhaps they create their own gravitational force by means of electro-magnetism, as they travel. They have been seen to carry out manoeuvres far beyond the capability of any Earth-made machines at speeds of which we can only dream and they can come to an abrupt halt just when we think they are about to crash. Two such cases come readily to mind. The first case was reported to have taken place over a caravan park in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, and was witnessed by three people who observed a UFO behaving in a peculiar manner - as if in trouble. It was wobbling about the sky like a top that was running down. Then another object was seen to come in very fast and, just when it seemed about to collide, it came to a sudden stop after which the one apparently in trouble moved away very slowly. The second case concerns a number of UFOs, over New South Wales, which came in from different directions - on what we term a crash course. Just when it was thought they would hit, all stopped abruptly, paused and then flew off together in the same direction. Was this a meeting of the clans? Or were they generating current which would recharge their machines? We all know the simple principles of electricity; that by cutting lines of force we generate electricity. When the UFOs cut across Earth's lines of force, do they utilize this form of power for travel within our atmosphere? Flying Saucers are not new as some of our bewildered scientists are discovering. In the days of Alexander the Great, 'flying shields' caused his armies to be dispersed in fear on at least three occasions. In biblical days 'clouds' spoke to people and the beings who reportedly flew in these 'clouds' were depicted as having very large wings which would be useless for flight, as some Earthmen discovered according to our history, much to their sorrow --- and to the demise of some! These reports of flying shields, clouds and fiery and flying chariots, as mentioned in the Scriptures and in other ancient literature, make us aware that a means of propulsion existed, and was obviously in use many centuries ago, which men of Earth have not yet discovered as a medium of flight. Whilst we are still sending our astronauts into space 'chased' by enormous 'fire crackers', the UFO-nauts have obviously found a means of propulsion which we should work overtime to discover - if only because of its possibilities regarding a means of transport. What it could save in the cost of fuel!

RESEARCH SOCIETY. by L.E. Adam 1. REQUIREMENTS OF SPACE VEHICLE PROPULSION: Two requirements exist, or rather two areas of requirements governed by environmental circumstances exist. Basically these are as follows:- (a) The launch propulsion system and its attendant atmospheric environment; (b) The space propulsion system and its attendant vacuumeric environment. In actual fact phase (a) will overlap into phase (b) and thus the requirements evolve as one requirement totally compatible in either atmospheric or non-atmospheric conditions. In other words, as all combustible fuels require an oxygen supply in order to sustain their combustion it becomes apparent that for a fuel to burn in both an atmosphere and a vacuum it would be necessary for the vehicle to carry an adequate supply of oxidant. Therefore, unlike a pure jet which derives its oxidant from the atmosphere, a space jet (which the so-called 'rockets' in fact are) must carry its own supply of oxidant, and subsequently the useful payload is reduced due to this additional loading. This has, from the outset, been a limitative problem which has beset space engineers for quite a considerable time - particularly when evaluated in terms of dollars and cents which show an average deep space manned launch cost of $27 million. Payload then becomes a most valuable commodity. Thus, efforts have been made to extend the useful payload capability without increasing the launch costs. Presuming that all equipment was necessary the obvious area for weight reduction would be the fuel poundage, and this has meant the careful investigation of methods of propulsion other than the traditional chemical system. Out of this need, and with the valuable payload goal in view, scientists of the Space Propulsion Laboratories turned their attention to two possible alternatives. Firstly, a nuclear system was examined but failed to produce a fully acceptable and fail safe method of sustained propulsion. Then considerably more promise was shown in the experiments with a heavy light system. This method entailed the ionisation of a coherent beam of light causing the light to have 'body' or 'substance' and therefore, just as a stream of water will propel a garden hose about, so the 'heavy' beam of light would tend to propel the vehicle creating the beam. This proved to be fine in theory but in practice had many anomalies. In the atmosphere the diffraction of the atmospheric light upon the beam caused a back pressure degener- (to page 3) 2 ION ENGINES (from page 2) ation just as our previously mentioned hose would show should the same be experimented with under water. Also the enormous power requirement to generate a useful thrust posed innumerable problems of storage and generation. However, these experiments were not wasted for out of them a hybridisation of the two systems investigated has begun to emerge as a very practical means. The Ion Engine. 2. WHAT IS AN ION ENGINE? All known substances, to a greater or lesser degree, are capable of being electrically charged either positively or negatively. In this process the minuscopic particles of the elements accept the charge individually. These tiny individual particles are known as ions and the process of charging them electrically is called ionisation. The ions, in accordance with the charge being applied become negative (or cationic) in potential, or positive (or anionic). Furthermore, as laid down in the mathematical laws of force, we know that when a conductor is passed through the field of a magnet a current will be caused to flow in that conductor. This is how electric motors and generators work. Therefore, it is apparent that magnetism exerts an influence over particles of matter in proportion to their conductivity. Also, by these same mathematical laws we know that when a conductor is surrounded by a magnetic field and a direct current is applied to it the conductor will be forced toward one direction or the other dependent upon the direction of the current flowing in the conductor. Hence it is not now difficult to see how a magnetic field surrounding suitably charged ions would cause those ions to be forced in one direction or the other according to the charge present (i.e., whether they are positive ions or negative ions). To take this a step further we find that the forcing of these ions in a particular direction constitutes a useable thrust. This is due to two factors namely:- (a) The ions are forced away from the field (to page 8) EDITORIAL (from page 1) it could have on the potential size of our space capsules! And consider this means of air transport instead of wheeled vehicles....! We have learned that stars and planets give off radio signals which would mean that they also have magnetic fields of some strength. Perhaps the space travellers use these as 'homing beams' and tune in to these signals to guide themselves through space. As the UFOs appear to have been with us since B.C. they must, by now, have 'plotted' all or many of the stars and their signals. Do these frequencies alter and require replotting? And do the UFO entities return from time to time to plant new navigational markers? Is this such a far-fetched idea? Once upon a time, and not so long ago either, it was thought that heavier-than-air machines would not fly, that we would never send a man to the moon and that "space travel is utter bilge" to quote the Astronomer Royal. But note the results of persistent research! If the U.F.O. groups keep plugging away at their research, even though at the moment UFO sightings may be somewhat scarce, perhaps in the not-too-distant future someone will, despite the oil companies, come into the open with an engine or a machine which will accomplish the same feats as the remarkable 'saucers'. If on the other hand, we continue to live as we do; building nuclear power stations willy-nilly, exploding atomic bombs and fighting wars among ourselves in headlong pursuit of global devastation, we may learn first-hand from a civilization which has been here before, brought with it its culture but departed too soon! ★ An English Doctor of Divinity, who is at present writing a book on UFOs and on the many aspects of the phenomenon, states "when you come near UFOs, you very nearly come near everything!" It would seem that many people are coming to similar conclusions. One such writer, scientist Otto O. Binder, in his book 'Flying Saucers Are Watching Us', says that science, history and the Bible will come to revolve around the U.F.O. 3 === Page 4 of 17 # ORTHODOXY VERSUS HETERODOXY **W. G. Manifold** Ufologists (horrible word!) are incensed that officialdom appears to suppress all knowledge of their pet subject. Understandably, they feel that there is a special effort directed against them: that it is the extra-terrestrial nature of their subject that brings out this antagonism or that there is an official conspiracy to keep this knowledge from the public because of its bearing on defence. The logical mind always tries to find a logical explanation, even for governmental action. It would be altogether too traumatic for civilised man to have to revert to primitive explanations such as good or evil spirits, and even worse to descend into the complete chaos of no reason at all. So, while I believe it is not really important whether officialdom believes in UFOs or not (unless they go so far as to prosecute or persecute Ufologists) I do feel that it is important to take a look at this whole question of orthodoxy versus heterodoxy. Humanity being what it is, medical matters must always have been of prime importance to our ancestors, but it has been only in historically recent times that orthodox medical circles accepted the two theories we now take to be so much their stock-in-trade as to seem practically self-evident: that of germs and that of circulation of the blood. But Lister had to fight for years against top-ranking surgeons who wore their dirty, blood-stained garments as status symbols, and Harvey similarly fought for years against the closed minds of his superiors. Both these men had formulated their ideas from direct observation which could be repeated, whereas entrenched authority clung desperately to its quite untenable errors. The establishment had climbed to power in spite of the gangrene in its hospitals and in spite of oceans of blood-letting, so the new doctrines would seem somewhat irrelevant. It would be too much to expect the leaders to admit past errors, even though these errors were merely gaps in their knowledge for which nobody could be blamed. It took 160 years for Harvey's theory of the circulation of the blood to gain acceptance, whereas one would suppose the matter could have been demonstrated even in his day within a couple of hours. To Medicine's credit, the modern heterodoxy Chiropractic has been much quicker to win converts. Numerous doctors readily accept it for the simple reason that it works, however contrary to orthodox theory, and it would seem that the two theories of dis-ease are rapidly reaching a stage of peaceful co-existence if not mutual acceptance. True science is based soundly on the observation of facts and, while there is plenty of (to page 6) 4 VIETNAM NAPALM A BOMBS U S A BLOODY RIOTS MISSILES ARAB JEWISH APARTHEID BIAFRA W.A. STAPLETON "IT WOULD BE FOLLY TO TRY TO CONTACT THESE BACKWARD AND PRIMITIVE BARBARIANS" === Page 5 of 17 ORTHODOXY VERSUS HETERODOXY (from page 4) room for error in isolating the correct cause-effect relationship in the first place, it is the scientist's job to design experiments to demonstrate the true fact in isolation. That is why medical theories are difficult to prove one way or the other. There are so many factors which it is hard or impossible to isolate without killing the patient, and this leads to a type of experiment which begs the real question entirely, such as the celebrated method of proving that headaches are due to aspirin deficiency... It is, of course, necessary to be sure that the living body, the reality, is preserved, while the hypothesis (even when dignified by the name of theory) is mercilessly dissected. Similarly, in Finance, it is possible to believe that interference of any kind is bound to be fatal owing to the number of interacting factors, but this again begs the question of what is the reality and what is the theory. Orthodoxy claims that the financial system works as it now is and that anyone who thinks it needs reform is a crank or a charlatan or both. When C. H. Douglas applied his engineer's mind to the matter 50 years ago, and produced his analysis of the Farnborough aircraft establishment's cost-accountancy, he too was ridiculed. Over the years orthodoxy has had to admit the truth of some of Douglas's discoveries but, in clinging to power, still manages to keep dark Douglas's proposals for making finance into mankind's servant rather than his master. The very great power of orthodox finance makes this particular struggle more one-sided than most ortho-hetero battles, but even so there are signs that orthodoxy, because of its failure to distribute the world's production, is on the retreat. It would seem particularly sad that, in refusing to accept Douglas's heterodoxy, finance will probably succumb to the complete antithesis put forward by Marx, with or without the help of his admirer Keynes. The present thesis, anyway, is borne out by the remark of one orthodox banker. "Events", he said, "seem to be in the pay of Douglas". Mathematics is not generally understood to contain more than one doctrine, but there is room for doubt even here. Dunne points out that greater reality is given to the expression 1/3 than to .33 recurring, though both are supposed to be exactly the same. It is not, perhaps, the fault of Mathematics but Dunne contends that, by using the serial form in relation to the dimension Time rather than the finite form, new vistas of knowledge are opened up. His Serial Time accounts neatly for extra-sensory perception, ghosts and immortality in a perfectly scientific manner, complete with experiment to prove it, albeit statistically. Orthodoxy refuses acknowledgement. The easily repeatable experiment is ignored. In Archaeology, similarly, de Perthes had to struggle for years to get recognition for his extraordinarily simple claim that human bones and artifacts which were found intermingled with prehistoric animal bones must have been contemporaneous with those artifacts and animal bones. Authority claimed that man just could not have been so ancient, and would not budge. As de Perthes wrote, "...They did not discuss my facts, they did not even take the trouble to deny them. They disregarded them". To be fair, the Establishment was really taking the proper attitude in this case. It is simply a matter of what constitutes a fact and what does not, and whereas all discoverers and inventors believe that they are dealing in facts, there is no doubt that some of them have been mistaken. Further, for reasons of their own, men sometimes do try to deceive their fellows. It may have seemed a long time to de Perthes, but in fact the archaeologists, as soon as they had repeated the same discoveries for themselves, accepted his claim and gave him full recognition. Amusingly enough, it was also proved that some of de Perthes' later diggings had been liberally 'salted' by his workmen! But archaeologists may well be superior characters, being continually confronted with facts which contradict previously held theories. When Cartailhac, the acknowledged authority, was finally convinced that the Altamira cave-paintings were genuine and not some sort of hoax, he published a complete apology to the discoverer, de Sautuola, and, since the latter was by then dead, made a ceremonial visit of apology to his daughter. His mistake, it would seem, was his slavish adherence to Darwinism. He simply could not admit to prehistoric man having been an artist when, 10,000 years ago, he was theoretically little different from an ape. But it has taken a long time for Archaeology to discover, by painstaking observation of facts, that Darwin's theory was altogether too simple: that over some periods and in certain respects mankind has actually degenerated. Again, possibly the most remarkable heterodoxy that has come to my notice concerns the diagnosis of human ailments. A device developed by one De La Warr in England produces a photograph of a patient's tumour or lesion or thrombosis or developing embryo or whatever it is 'tuned' for, from nothing more than a sample of his or her blood. The device has been demonstrated to all sorts of eminent scientists and doctors but they prefer to ignore it. I asked a well-known Australian retired doctor and Professor of human physiology if he had heard about the machine. "Oh yes!", he said, and told me that he had talked to some atomic scientists who had visited De La Warr from Harwell and who had seen the machine demonstrated. They told my friend that it was all perfectly genuine and that it did what the inventor claimed, but it was right outside their orthodox scientific knowledge so it was nothing to do with them. Further, they did not approve of the fact that De La Warr (who had no other income) was actually selling his machines. Such commercialism put him right outside the scientific pale! Yet Science, to the non-scientific anyway, is the modern religion. There is nothing it does not know, nothing it cannot explain. The faith in which it is held by politicians and journalists and even by ministers of older religions is quite frightening, but the indeterminate areas are strictly off-limits to them. The continuing battle between Newton's corpuscular and Huyghens' wave theories of light and so on are tactfully kept in the cupboard, and the extraordinary hiatus in scientific knowledge when it comes to gravity is given the silent treatment. It is not, perhaps, appreciated even by many Ufologists that Science regards gravity in much the same way as the ancient Greek civilisation regarded what we call electricity. To them, it was a property of some substances, notably amber, of attracting small particles to themselves after they had been rubbed. Their name for amber, elektra, thus became their only contribution to that vast field of knowledge which lay in hiding behind that insignificant little quirk of nature. Today, Science is as completely in the dark about the mechanism of gravity as those Greeks were about the mechanism of their rubbed amber. And while our scientists can calculate to an un-dreamed-of accuracy the amount of attraction between a spacevehicle and the moon (as the Greeks might have calculated the attraction between those tiny particles and the amber), they still have not the faintest idea how it works. It is, perhaps, this very knowledge of their own lack of knowledge which turns some people sour at the thought that others, possibly not even humanoid others, might have discovered the mechanism first and be using it to their own advantage just as we use electricity. But it was not my purpose to digress into Ufology itself other than as just one other example of anti-heterodox attitudes, and in this respect it would seem that the attitude of authority to UFOs has been certainly no more anti than one might expect from the earlier examples. In passing, however, it may be worth pointing out that Michael Faraday would probably never have discovered the relationship between magnetism and electricity if he had been confronted with a nuclear power station right from the word go. He had to come upon it in the simplest form, the current-carrying wire and the compass, whence the principle could be seen free of complexities. Thus while UFOs, by demonstrating the fact of gravity-control, should spur us on, our task really lies with the fundamentals of gravity, mainly within the laboratory. To conclude, then, what is so often taken for deliberate anti-heterodoxy is more often (to page 8) (to page 7) 6 7 === Page 6 of 17 ORTHODOXY VERSUS HETERODOXY (from page 7) than not either cautious good sense or sheer apathy, but there is still occasionally the deliberate attack. We should realise that until Lister's observations had been accepted microbes, if they existed, were nothing to do with medicine nor, similarly, was Harvey's idea about the circulation of the blood. Neither, not so long ago, did economists think that the issue of financial credit (if there was such a thing) was within their province, nor do physicists and mathematicians yet feel that it is their job to include dreams in theirs. Before we criticise these establishments too severely, we should learn their languages and respect their fields of activity. They have reached the tops of their respective professions because of rigid adherence to certain laws, and it would be naive of us to expect them to discard these now, particularly to bring in something they do not regard as their business anyway. Neither the Government nor Science nor the Air Force are likely to sort out the UFO problem for us. Like Faraday or Harvey or Lister or de Perthes or Douglas or Dunne we must make our observations, formulate our theory and perform experiments to prove it. Then, and then only, can we expect 'Ufology' to take its place amongst the sciences, thereby transforming them. As Leonardo Da Vinci stated: "Many will believe that they can with reason censure me, alleging that my proofs are contrary to the authority of certain men who are held in great reverence for their inexperienced (i.e. without experience) judgements, not taking into account that my conclusions were arrived at as a result of simple and plain experience, which is the true mistress". ★ **Bibliography:** Encyclopaedia Britannica "Economic Democracy" and "The Monopoly of Credit" C.H.Douglas.

(b) As the ions are in fact particles of matter they therefore also have mass (i.e. body or substance, they exist, they are physical particles of matter that have weight). Thus if they have mass, and subsequently weight, an amount of kinetic energy must be expanded to cause their acceleration out of the field of magnetism. Now, as Newton's law expounds, "For every action (force) there is an equal and opposite re-action (force)." Therefore, to put it simply, for each pound of force exerted by the field to thrust the charged ions away in one direction the same number of pounds of force will push (or tend to push) the magnetic field in the opposite direction. Hence, in summary, an ion engine is simply a device to charge particles (i.e., it has an ionisation chamber) and a magnetic field to thrust the ionised particles away from it, thereby exerting a force upon itself in the opposite direction just as a jet engine does when the expanding gases are forced to exhaust in one direction only.

Greenfield "He was working on his project On a dark and lonely night; How the lightning flashed and Thunder roared outside. His name was Al K. Bender And he was to have a fright From some visitors who In the dark did hide...". (from "The Three Men in Black" by Donny Barker, in Saucer News, Spring, 1970). Albert K. Bender was not the only person connected with the UFO phenomenon who allegedly had an experience with strange visitors. In fact, an overview of the history of modern UFO investigations might indicate a web of such incidents - or rumoured incidents - stretching back to the very earliest events of 1947. On pages 34-35 of The Coming of the Saucers by Kenneth Arnold and Ray Palmer (Amherst Press), one can read an account of a mysterious visitor appearing, as I understand it, at the time of the Maury Island mystery in 1947. In Flying Saucer Review's special "Beyond Condon" issue, pages 57-62, John A. Keel's article "The Cape May Incident" includes an account of a strange visitor who appeared in 1967. The term "men in black" may be somewhat narrower than the actual scope of the phenomenon being dealt with; actually, mysterious visitors may come in various sizes and forms of attire. The 'black' reference, though, is perhaps a very real one, both with reference to the mode of dress of some of these visitors, and to the dark complexions they may reportedly have. I have never, to my immediate knowledge, had an experience with anything so dramatic as three visitors coming to my door with eerie knowledge of the UFO mystery, telling me to cease research or face the consequences. But then, there was that lady that sat out in the front of my old office while I and another UFOlogist 'talked shop'; and then there were those two telephone calls.....but more about my own experiences later. Right now, I am going to briefly quote a segment from an article by Rick R. Hilberg, a gentleman I have personally known for a number of years. The following paragraph is extracted from Saucer News, Spring, 1970, page 48, from an article entitled "The Enigma": ".....I myself became involved with this sort of cloak and dagger mystery during the summer of 1965 when two men dressed as Cleveland police detectives visited my home to ask me questions about my saucer activities, allegedly on request of a potential UFO MAGAZINE subscriber in Florida. They stayed about a half-hour and asked questions which only an 'insider' to the saucer mystery would know. They also had a substantial knowledge of local as well as national UFO personalities.....". There is nothing unduly spectacular in the (to page 11) 9 === Page 7 of 17 WHAT'S THAT WEIRD NOISE? -SOUNDS LIKE MUSIC! IT'S PROBABLY RADIO FREQUENCY MODULATION OR PARASITIC OSCILLATIONS W. STAPLETON A CONSIDERATION OF THE "MEN IN BLACK" RUMOUR (from page 9) above incident. By the same token, there is nothing so incredible as to be unbelievable about it. Yet if this sort of thing does go on, we might do well to ponder the question of responsibility for such incidents. Who is doing it? The Government? If so, which government, and why? Is it the CIA? In an article appearing in the Volume 3, Number 2 issue of my own publication, Alternate Horizons Newsletter, published some time ago, Richard S. Hack stated: ".......... In a book entitled UFOs Over the Americas, Jim and Coral Lorenzen put forth the hypothesis that many of the incidents attributed to strange persons in black clothing were really efforts of the Central Intelligence Agency and/or sundry other intelligence groups to keep a security lid on the subject in the national interest. "My views parallel theirs in some respects, but differ in others. For instance, I believe that the authors make a good case for the existence of some sort of UFO interest by the CIA or some other national agency. There are several valid reasons for believing this. One is the fact that the CIA would presumably receive intelligence reports on the phenomena from the Air Force. Secondly, the Green Bay gentleman who inadvertently revealed that he had drawn up an intelligence estimate on the Lorenzens. Third, the OSI (Office of Special Investigations) dossier reputed to exist on the Lorenzens. Fourth, the intelligence report indicating close surveillance of the Lorenzens reportedly discovered by Dr. Olavo T. Fontes. Fifth, and finally, the Robertson Panel's comment to the effect that such organizations as APRO should be watched due to the possibility of their being subverted sometime in the future. "However, from here my views sharply diverge from those of the Lorenzens. The later incidents they reveal seem to me to indicate a third factor - the one we call the Men In Black. "For instance, they cite the case where deposits of angel hair were apparently deliberately destroyed by the supposedly 'accidental' dumping of fuel oil on the area. To me it seems unlikely that the CIA has enough personnel to maintain such a wide surveillance of individual investigators that within two days after a phone conversation with the Lorenzens concerning the incident, they were able to locate the investigator's angel hair site and arrange its destruction, simply to destroy 'hard evidence'. In other words, the effort expended seems disproportionate to the importance of the incident. "Again, would the CIA track down witnesses to simple sightings all over the world and illegally threaten and even kidnap them solely to prevent their stories from leaking out? I maintain that the normal intelligence procedures cited by the Lorenzens do not include such fantastic procedures as dressing up in black suits and running around trying to look like aliens! If the Air Force isn't doing it, why ascribe omniscience to the CIA? "Again, note that APRO admits that the Ohio Valley is crawling with such incidents, yet refuses to consider the possibility of a connection between this fact and the numerous phenomena uncovered by John Keel in this area. "And the most devastating indictment of this CIA scenario is the physical fact of Men In Black - men with uniform descriptions and apparel who, to say the least, have strange abilities, some which may be considered outside the range of even the CIA. When a UFO witness gets crank calls within scant hours after his sighting, and before he even tells anyone of the event, it is hard to suggest CIA involvement without postulating that the CIA has ears in every wall. "True, one may ask, 'Well, how can these MIB pull these things off, and why would they, if the same things are not rational when attributed to the CIA?' Sadly, I have no reply - except to say that at least the ring of truth, as it were, does not hang on the suggestion of such strange practices being the work of hidebound government bureaucrats - and that is what the CIA is run by, if the agents themselves are not.....". Perhaps one of the most damning points against the men-in-black-are-all-government-agents concept is similar to an argument against UFOs being simply 'secret weapons' of (to page 12) 11 === Page 8 of 17 A CONSIDERATION OF THE "MEN IN BLACK" RUMOUR (from page 11) quite earthly origin made on historical grounds: that UFOs have simply been around far, far too long for any conventional earthly government to be responsible. Men In Black-type cases may similarly be of extreme vintage, as indicated by my own research and discussed in the article "A Historical Perspective On The 'Men In Black' Legend", written by me and published in UFO Chronolog, 43 Richland Drive, Newport News, Virginia 23602, USA, January-February, 1970 issue, and also published in Quest UFO Report, 489 Krug Street, Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, July-August, 1970 issue. The article suggests the possibility that Men In Black-type incidents may date back hundreds of years. In my booklet, Extracts From Alternate Horizons Newsletter, I describe an incident which took place 'at' my office, then located in a local shopping center in Atlanta, Georgia USA, where I reside. The incident was at the time of a skywatch in August, 1968, for which my office was serving as communications headquarters. At about 10.15 in the evening a strange call came in; a voice speaking in monotone apparently stated, ".....you will discontinue this project or reap the result(s)". The voice was accompanied by a strange background noise. At a later date, this time at my home, I received another unusual telephone call, this one consisting of strange sounds quite distinct from the background sounds of the earlier call, and not accompanied by any voice. It is quite possible that the former incident could be a hoax of some sort, while the latter might have a natural explanation related to telephone problems -- or it could have been another hoax. On the other hand, if the former was a hoax, it might well be considered a 'technically quite professional' one; this was not the voice of a giggling adolescent playing a momentary prank, though this hardly proves it was not a hoax. I titled this article "A Consideration of the 'Men In Black' Rumour". Perhaps this is the type of context that the rational UFOlogist should keep this problem in at the present; the Men In Black are a rumour connected with the UFO problem. There may be too much data associated with the rumour readily available to dismiss the matter lightly, but too little readily available to justify any unduly strong commitment to the concept that there are men in black. They may be, and they may not be. ★ THE FOLLOWING EXCERPT WAS TAKEN FROM SPACEFLIGHT VOLUME 12 NUMBER 8, AUGUST 1970, PAGE 327, FROM "PERSONAL PROFILE" BY J. GORDON VAETH, SPACE ENGINEER. Also at White Sands took place the UFO episode: Charlie Moore of General Mills Inc., contractor for our 9UJI balloon operation, and four enlisted personnel from the Proving Ground's Navy Unit had set up near Arrey, New Mexico, to observe local weather. At 10.20 on Sunday morning, 24th April, they released a pilot balloon to check the winds. Tracking equipment consisted of a ML-47 David White theodolite with 25-power scope. With the balloon at $210^{\circ}$ azimuth and $45^{\circ}$ elevation a whitish object was suddenly noticed at the approximate same bearing, moving east at $5^{\circ}$ of azimuth change per second. Visible to the naked eye and filling the field of the theodolite scope, it appeared to be an ellipsoid about 2 1/2 times longer than wide and gleaming white except light yellow on its underside at the tail. Moving from south-west around toward north-east, getting slightly smaller as it did, the object held constant at about $20^{\circ}$ azimuth, its elevation angle increasing from $25^{\circ}$ to $29^{\circ}$. At that point, it was lost to sight. The sky was cloudless. There was no vapour trail or exhaust. The object made no noise. I found Moore and the others pretty excited when I drove up to their site a couple of hours later. A detailed report was filed. The incident has never been satisfactorily explained. ********** For the above excerpt we thank Dr. Paul Zeck. Perth, W.A. ********** 12 # UFOS AND E.S.P. ## Otto O. Binder It is the opinion of a growing number of people that global natural disasters are not only on the increase but are breaking all other catastrophe records. They claim, furthermore, that these events coincide with an increasing number of UFOs in our skies. The following article was received in September 1970. Since that time a great tidal wave, which may turn out to be the greatest disaster in recorded history, has hit East Pakistan. The writer of this article, Otto O. Binder, is also the author of two UFO books entitled "What We Really Know About Flying Saucers" and "Flying Saucers Are Watching Us". In a note, which accompanied his article, Mr. Binder wrote: ".....As to the predicted 'UFO Wave', I've heard from UFOlogists and newsclip gatherers that there were many sightings so far in 1970, reported only in small-town papers, never in metropolitan dailies where the government policy of 'no saucers exist' holds sway. Maine definitely had a flap, and probably Kansas. "As for the 'disasters' prediction of Ted Owens, the Peru earthquake killing 50,000 was succeeded by a massive power-blackout in the middle Atlantic states 'greater than ever before' and the present-time raging prairie fires in California, the worst in history, burning out countless homes. Before the year is over, 1970 may well prove out Ted Owens' prophecy as one of the worst years for world-wide catastrophe." By the time you read this you will know that the summer (northern hemisphere) of 1970 saw the grandaddy of all UFO waves --- if the prediction of Ted Owens was right. Ted Owens claims to be the 'mouthpiece' of the UFO-people, who are in constant telepathic touch with him, revealing their secrets and plans. And Owens, as of 13th February 1970, predicted that a worldwide barrage of violence (storms, earthquakes, hurricanes, great blackouts and such) would be engineered by the UFOs to prove their powers to us. Along with that would come the most massive UFO wave in history and more landings than ever before. They would issue forth from the Bermuda Triangle and the Devil's Triangle in the Pacific Ocean, near Japan (as in my recent SAGA article). From all indications, there might have been a giant UFO wave in 1970 but the Saucer Barrier of censorship kept it effectively smothered. Ted Owens cannot be blamed for that, nor his prediction denied. As for natural disasters these, including the Peru earthquake, did rumble through 1970. Regardless of the saucer-riding contactees, this matter of ESP contact with the saucermen is rapidly gaining ground. I personally have corresponded with (and met) a lady who, though I am unable to identify her here, has in the past few years typed reams of messages from UFOs -- messages which contain scientific terms and concepts that seem entirely beyond her capacity. (to page 16) 13 === Page 9 of 17 # WAS IT A FLYING SAUCER? From a special representative TAMWORTH, Sat.--A mysterious saucer-like hole--scorched in the earth--has been discovered in a remote paddock, about seven miles east of Boggabri. Many local residents fear the large hole has been made by a flying saucer. They claim the hole is similar to others in south NSW and parts of Victoria where UFOs have been allegedly landed. Already, officers from the Unidentified Flying Objects' Centre and Agricultural Department officials have visited the Boggabri site. All say they are mystified about the indentation. The hole was discovered in a paddock on Mr. Willoughby Erratt's property. The hole is 6 ft. in diameter and about 6 inches deep with a large hole in the centre. One nearby resident said the centre hole was the size of a small plate, but it was about 18 inches deep. There are seven more smaller holes around the edge of the main indentation. Residents claim the seven other holes looked as though they could have been made by the legs of a flying saucer. One of the strangest things was a fine white powdery substance at the base of the hole. They believe this could be a burn mark from a rocket blast. A senior officer of the Soil Conservation Office said the land disturbance was "a very strange phenomenon." "SUNDAY TIMES" Perth, W.A. 22/11/70 # Someone up there spies me PERTH. -- "I don't believe in little green men," the camp supervisor at a copper mine, Mr T. Murphy, said today. But Mr Murphy and the miners are convinced that something, perhaps from outer space, is watching them work. The miners work the remote Thaduna open-cut mine, 500 miles north-east of Perth. The nearest town is Meekatharra, 120 miles to the south-east. "HERALD" Melbourne, Vic. 8/12/70 Mr Murphy said today that an oval-shaped "thing," colored white and orange, hovered over the mine for two hours yesterday. "It gave off a loud hissing noise," Mr Murphy said. "It was first sighted by nightshift workers about 3.30 a.m. "They woke their workmates and we all watched it up there in the sky till about 5.30 a.m. "Then it moved off slowly, passing over the north end of the cut to the south end. "It just hovered there." The sighting is one of several reported to the Department of Civil Aviation in Meekatharra in the past few weeks. The last sighting was at Errabiddy station, about 120 miles west of Meekatharra. Stockmen described it as orange and oval-shaped. # "TELEGRAPH" Brisbane, Q'land 18/12/70 # STRANGE FLASH IN SKY REPORTS A mysterious explosion in the air was reported at Indooroopilly last night Mr. R. F. Allen, resident janitor of the Indooroopilly State High School, said the explosion was accompanied by a vivid white light and was violent enough to shake his house and wake his wife. "It happened at 11.17 p.m. I was awake and looking out my front window," he said. "The explosion was preceded by a whine, increasing in volume, similar to a jet or a descending shell. But it was not an aircraft. # VIVID WHITE "I was an Army engineer during the war and saw plenty of planes go up. A plane exploding is orange colored because of the fuel and is accompanied by falling debris," he said. "This was a vivid white and I saw nothing fall," he said. "The explosion appeared to be about 1000 feet up. "It was about a 40 degree angle to my line of sight as I faced towards the suburbs of Graceville, Sherwood and Gailes." The sound of the explosion also was reported by a St. Lucia housewife. DCA and Weather Bureau officials today said they had heard no reports of the explosion. # Navy coming -- UFO at St Helens A ST HELENS man who saw an unidentified flying object late last month will be interviewed by a Navy Department official. Mr M. G. Beven said he was told by police on Monday night "that someone from the Navy Department was going to come up and interview me." He said he was not sure when the interview would take place. On October 28, Mr and Mrs Beven and their neighbours in Bowen St, St Helens, Mr and Mrs J. Riley, watched a cigar-shaped object moving across the sky. "It was about 6.06 pm when I first saw it and I watched it for about eight minutes," Mr Beven said. The object was travelling towards the north-east when he first saw it and then it turned around and moved from Eddystone Pt south along the coast towards St Marys. "It was at a tremendous height -- about 50,000ft." When he looked at the object through a pair of cheap field glasses he said he could make out the colours of red, white, and blue. "It had small fins and could have been a rocket, but it was travelling too slow." The object moved slower than a jet, made no noise, but left a long white vapour trail. Mr Stan Glatty, of Binalong Bay, also saw the UFO and made a report to police. "Mr Glatty said he saw the object come up out of the sea," Mr Beven said. "MERCURY" Hobart, Tas. 11/11/70 # 'FLYING SAUCERS' SEEN THROUGHOUT RIVERINA Unidentified flying objects have taken the Riverina by storm, according to numerous reports by residents in the past two weeks. More than seven reports of sightings of unidentified objects have been made by people over a wide area. One woman, Mrs. Shirley Ryall, of Barmedman, was quite adamant that an object which "looked like a spaceship" landed in a paddock about a mile from her home last week. Mrs. Ryall and her brother, Mr. Bevan Adams, said they sighted a strange light in the sky near Yiddah at about 8.45 p.m. "It was lower than a star and it was moving," Mrs. Ryall said. # Bright "There was a bright yellow light and it appeared to have a tail. "The tail was a smaller light that occasionally disappeared. "This strange light seemed to follow us and it was still in the sky when we saw the "spaceship" about a mile from home. "When we reached the top of a hill in our car we noticed the object in one of our paddocks, near the roadway. "There was light emitting from several small windows in the spaceship and it had antennas on top. "It was shaped like a football but there didn't appear to be any landing gear underneath. "I did not stop the car. I was too scared and kept on driving. # Griffith "The object later flew over the top of our house and in the direction of Griffith," Mrs. Ryall said. Mrs. Ryall said she was surprised her friends believed her when she told them what she had seen. "They didn't think I was mad and I'm sure anyone would believe it if they saw it too," she said. On the same night September 8, a Leeton woman, Mrs. Fay Bulgaries, said she also saw an object which looked like a spaceship. # Floating Mrs. Bulgaries said she saw the object floating in the area about 500ft above her home at 7 p.m. An 18-year-old Narrandera railway employee spent about 10 minutes on Wednesday night watching an object in the sky. The youth, Mr. Kevin McClure, said the object was about 150 feet to 200 feet above the ground and that it changed colour from orange to red and also emitted a blue light. Also on Wednesday night a Yanco couple, Mr. and Mrs. Philip Tremellen, said they saw an unidentified object in the sky shortly after 9.40 p.m. Mr. and Mrs. Tremellen said they had seen a bright light to the west of their home and as it descended it changed colour quickly, turning blue, green, red and white. Late last week Mr. David Whybrow, of Junee, and Miss Nola Kelleher, of Harden, both saw an unidentified flying object in the sky near Junee. They said the moving light appeared to change colours. Five residents of the Nubba district also reported similar sightings. Two of the residents, Mr. John Chapman of Murrumburrah, and Miss Alison Taylor, both saw an object which appeared to "meet with another object." They could not identify the objects. A vice-president of the U.F.O. Investigations Organisation of N.S.W., Mr. T. V. Homan, of Glebe, said the organisation was interested to hear of the Riverina sightings and would send some people questionnaires. "On the whole it has been very quiet lately and there have been no sightings for several months," Mr. Homan said. "When we get the reports back we will attempt to evaluate them and see if there is anything at the bottom of the sightings." # Sceptics Mr. Homan, an essential oil distiller said there had been numerous sightings throughout N.S.W. reported to the organisation in past years. "Sometimes many of the sightings are eliminated after investigation but we think there is something at the bottom of all these sightings. "People have claimed actual contact but we regard them as extreme sceptics," Mr. Homan said. "ADVERTISER" Wagga, N.S.W. 18/9/70 === Page 10 of 17 UFOs AND E.S.P. (from page 13) And it is significant, if you go back over old UFO reports, how many witnesses said they "heard words" in their minds from hovering UFOs or from occupants stepping out of landed craft. It is one of those too-many-times-repeated phenomena that have the ring of truth. The lady previously mentioned has been receiving repeated warnings of some world-wide series of disasters to come (no date given) which will wipe out current civilization - because it is going downhill morally and decaying - and force mankind to make a new start. This is not unlike the messages and predictions received by other 'sensitives', even famed ones known nationally. There almost seems to be a concensus among prognosticators that some major catastrophe lies ahead for Earth, before the year 2000. In fact, the implication is there (sometimes stated flatly) that the reason UFOs have appeared in massive numbers around our world for twenty-three-odd years is because this world calamity will occur. Whether they are here merely as observers, or as actual instigators, or as rescuers, is anybody's guess. At least the whole theory hangs together, ominously. To add to the ESP factor - for years, while my newspaper feature OUR SPACE AGE ran, I received many letters mentioning such 'mental contacts' with saucermen. Another woman, in New Jersey, described three separate sightings in which "soothing messages" flowed into her mind. It is hard to believe that all those people simply have a superb imagination - they are often simple people who have little imagination about anything. Their experience always comes unexpectedly, shockingly, without any warning. Hardly the sign of a neurotic who has been 'hearing voices' all his life. If the world was gripped by disasters, plus flocks of UFO sightings and landings galore in 1970, then Ted Owens will be vindicated and the case for UFO-E.S.P. will be wrapped up ---except, of course, for the professional disbelievers of The Establishment. But even they will have to wonder! ★ 16 # BOOK REVIEW Written by Peter Kolosimo, NOT OF THIS WORLD is selling in Melbourne at $4.90. I found this a 'meaty' book mainly because of the very nature of its subject matter - the historical aspect of UFOs and the visits to this planet in the past (and the present) by beings from other worlds. The theme of the text is similar to that of Erich von Daniken's books - that the orthodox or traditional ideas on evolution are out of date and cosmic evolution is in, suggesting that we are the descendants of extra-terrestrial beings. Because of the wealth of absorbing material contained in this book I advise readers to digest a chapter at a time rather than try to read the whole book quickly. (May I suggest that keeping a special notebook is a handy aid to summarizing the more important points in each chapter and thereby facilitating the retention of facts as well as providing a use-ful future reference to the contents of the book. These reference notebooks might also be prepared on all your UFO literature.) Unfortunately this book does not contain an index or bibliography which, to me, are essential in a work of this type. The book is obviously well researched and the author well-read and knowledgeable which makes these omissions the more lamentable. The contents, covering a wide variety of topics, are divided into two sections. The first section deals with ancient manuscripts, relics and legends about 'other beings'. It makes one want to read the author's earlier book 'The Timeless Earth'. The second section concerns itself with ancient civilizations and their possible founding and destruction. NOT OF THIS WORLD contains 33 interesting illustrations which add to the quality of the book and to its better understanding. ★ Michael McNamara # "AVIATORS" OF ANTIQUITY Reprinted from CANADIAN UFO REPORT, BOX 758, DUNCAN, B.C., CANADA. (Vol.1. No.8.) by special permission of John Magor, editor. An absorbing aspect of ufology is the study of evidence suggesting that advanced beings from space may have landed on earth in ancient times beyond record and had a part in the growth of our civilization. Possibly, in fact, they shared in our evolution. Consider these words in Genesis V1-1: "...the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took to wife such of them as they chose." Reference to the "sons of God" is frequent in the Bible yet there is no real certainty as to exactly who they were. In his book 'Flying Saucers Are Watching Us' Otto Binder suggests this: "remember that all theologians do not agree that the words God, Jehovah, Elohim and such necessarily all meant the God. It is open to question whether in many cases a nondivine being was meant, a messenger from the sky. Reinterpreting the Bible freely, and more logically, the Adam and Eve story might really be a garbled account of how men in flying saucers landed on earth and intermarried with earthly women of some pre-historic type. Or even more likely, with a sub-human species more than a million years ago." While it is hard to believe that beings so mature would have any taste for ape-like females, it is possible they used artificial insemination as part of some plan to colonize our embryonic planet with an intelligent species. Then perhaps returning long afterward as what were thought to be "sons of God", they were pleased with what they had wrought and took unto themselves wives. It is theorizing of this sort that sends orthodox scholars groping for the nearest wall but these same scholars are often notably lacking in answers of their own. Here, for instance, are significantly unanswered questions concerning the biological development of man listed by Max H. Flindt in his studious work 'On Tiptoe Beyond Darwin': A. Why did the race of Aurignacian Man (circa 30,000 B.C.) according to his fossil bones, have a brain case 100 cubic centimeters bigger than that of modern man with 1,300 cc capacity? Where did this huge brain case, three times that of a gorilla, come from? And was this large-brained sub-man one of our immediate ancestors, through some unknown bio-genetic program of interbreeding with men of space? B. Why is a man's brain weight more than triple that of other animals, in proportion to body weight, with a thinking capacity ten times greater than any species of the primates? C. Why did man alone, out of hundreds of rival mammalian species, develop this tremendous brain power? (Recent studies of the mental behaviour of dolphins indicate man may not have been alone. Possibly space visitors also carried out their experiment on aquatic life where diversity was infinitely greater - Ed.) All other creatures had just as many millions of years to evolve their (to page 18) 17 === Page 11 of 17 "AVIATORS" OF ANTIQUITY (from page 17) D. Why is it that the fertilized ovum of the human female buries itself in the uterus wall, something that happens with no other creature on earth? E. Why does man, unlike all other animals in nature, come in a wide variety of skin colors, statures, cranial shapes, color of head hair, and facial features? Why does man in that sense resemble domesticated dogs, cats and cattle, who have been bred by us - much as we may have been bred - into a great variety of types? As Binder remarks: "None of these riddles is fully explained by the theory of evolution. Max Flindt quotes from Sir Arthur Keith, the great anthropologist, who states that 'thirty percent of man's structural details (of his body) are peculiar to man himself and not shared with any other of the primates.'" While the theory of 'manipulated' evolution seems to answer such riddles, there is danger of over-simplification if we follow this line of thought without considering other riddles in man's development. To judge from the discovery of miraculously contrived artifacts far older than the most primitive kind of relics, man's growth has been a history of interruptions. There must have been periods of tremendous accomplishment followed by others of near extinction. This view has been notably developed in the prodigious studies of scientist and historian Immanuel Velikovsky, and in issue no.2 we listed some of the remarkable relics tending to support it. But with the exception of the ancient Piri Reis maps showing areas of the world thought to be unknown to earthbound explorers, these particular examples gave no evidence that their creators were masters of flight - though some of the building feats suggested the use of flying craft. (A friend of ours who recently questioned Velikovsky on the subject found that, understandably because of his preoccupation with other avenues of his immense study, he had not concerned himself with the possibility of manned flight in ancient times. Thus he has not paid particular attention to the controversy over UFOs. Interestingly, however, Velikovsky makes this statement in his 'Ages in Chaos': "With colorful imagination 'Kebra Nagast' recounts the bridal night of Solomon and the Queen of the South; among the presents he gave her there were 'a vessel wherein one could travel over the sea and a vessel where one could travel by air.'") So now let's look at another centuries-old creation of skillful design where the involvement of flight seems unmistakable. In fact, more than anything it resembles a set of navigation aids for aviators arriving from great altitudes. The scene is the unbelievably dry coastal desert about 250 miles south of Lima, capital of Peru. There, between the Ica and Nazca valleys, are vast tracings on the pebbly surface that obviously have a connection with astronomy as well as being symbols of an unknown culture. Mystifying as the tracings are for their design alone, the real puzzle is that their outline becomes apparent only when seen from the air. While for countless years travelers must have trudged right through them, they were hardly noticed until a commercial airline was established in the region. Passengers and crewmen observed a bewildering maze of designs covering the mesa-like uplands, and soon the tracings became a scientific curiosity. The manner in which they were etched on the desert was simply explained. The originators had removed a thin layer of weather-darkened pebbles where they wished to show the outlines and piled these along the border of the exposed subsurface. The result was yellowish inner strips bounded by dark edges which were immediately noticeable when viewed from a height. But how these early-day 'sidewalk' artists completed their enormous patterns if they had no help above ground level is so far unexplained. Now known simply as the Nazca Lines, the tracings in some cases represent huge men with arms aloft and bird-like creatures or insects. In other cases the drawings are geometric, with lines running parallel for miles or fashioned as triangles that seem to have a directional purpose. Some of the lines appear to go straight into the (to page 20) 18 ********** Desert tracings like these are unexplained. ********** === Page 12 of 17 "AVIATORS" OF ANTIQUITY (from page 18) bases of mountains and come out again on the other side, at the same level and in complete alignment. Still more mystifying is how several of the lines were given a precise astronomical bearing. First scientist to discover this remarkable fact was U.S. anthropologist Paul Kosok who went to Peru in 1940 to study the development of remote "irrigation societies". Having heard of the lines and thinking they might throw light on his subject, he went to investigate. Like others before him, he failed at first to see any meaning in the designs. Then one evening on a second visit a year later Kosok and his wife were studying a series of lines at the top of a mesa when they were surprised to notice that the setting sun touched the horizon precisely over one of them. Immediately they recalled the date was June 22, the day of the winter solstice in the southern hemisphere. Surely this was a solstice line! From that chance beginning Kosok came to conclude that the markings were nothing less than the "Largest Astronomy Book in the World". Other commitments obliged him to leave the region before his work there was finished but in Lima he had the good luck to meet a German-born scientist, Dr. Maria Reiche, who was trained in both mathematics and astronomy. Instantly captivated by what Kosok told her about the lines, Dr. Reiche became something of a miracle in her own right. Going to see the tracings for herself, she has never departed. Today she lives in a simple abode hut near the desert and spends her days charting and measuring the lines and comparing them with the positions of the stars and planets at different times of the year. While Dr. Reiche, as far as we know, never assumed that space beings had a part in the history of the tracings, she did at one time admit by her own actions that height was needed to study the lines properly. This occurred when, to photograph the maze of drawings, she had herself strapped to the outside of an airplane so she would have an unobstructed bird's-eye view of all the configurations. Speculation about why the drawings were ever put there usually proceeds from the premise that they were an aid to early inhabitants in forecasting seasons favorable to crops, with some religious connotation possibly included. Since no rain ever falls on those particular plains - which explains why the lines have not been erased - the people who would benefit were presumably those who lived in the valleys where irrigation was possible. While this reasoning is probably correct to some degree, it fails to account for the seemingly endless complexity of the drawings. Although she is making a life-study of the mystery, Dr. Reiche still has not exhausted its astronomical possibilities. How simple farmers, even with the help of their more knowledgeable high priests could fare any better - to say nothing of creating the diagrams in the first place - remains completely unexplained. So here again we run into the stiff academic attitude that if anything scientifically unacceptable, such as UFOs, must be introduced to solve a mystery, it is better to let the mystery remain. If the Nazca lines were strictly a local feature, without anything similar elsewhere, it might be stretching the case a bit to suggest ufoperators found this particular spot for their navigational aids. But these strange drawings are not an isolated instance of their kind, though they are certainly the most complex. In the Zana and Lambayesque valleys of northern Peru there are "roads" similar to those in Nazca, while other drawings that take on form only when viewed from the air are located just outside Lima and in northern Chile. A 602-foot-high candelabra-like figure is carved into a cliff above the Pacific near Pisco, also in Peru. It points exactly north and south. In the midwest U.S. there are unexplained mounds that are more apparent seen from above than on the ground, and there are giant pictographs on the sun-parched mesas of California. One hundred miles upstream from them, on the Colorado, is a mysterious rock "maze" consisting of many acres of ground covered with a patchwork of parallel roads of small stones, scraped together in small ridges. This is (to page 21) 20 "AVIATORS" OF ANTIQUITY (from page 20) called the 'Mojave Maze' but the Mojave deny having built it, nor do they know who did. The confusion of designs and forms suggests these puzzling relics of a time before recorded history had more than a single purpose. If we are bold enough to assume they were created by a civilization in space, we might also assume the creatures depicted are symbols of another world where such creatures exist. Perhaps they have a religious intent or perhaps they serve the more earthy purpose of identifying the region in which they are located, much as we identify our airfields by particular radio signals. Going a step further with the idea of a relationship with space beings, we can wonder if the drawings so like direction signs on the changeless sands of South America have some connection with the UFO power-grid theorized by Captain Bruce Cathie of New Zealand and mentioned later in this issue. Could these signs be used to take bearings on important sectors of the grid? To orthodox scholars this may seem to be heaping wild guess on wild guess but at least it suggests a purpose that is so far utterly lacking. There are two other pieces of evidence that may not fit into this particular puzzle but are so similar in format they might have been cut with the same jigsaw. One is this item from an article in 'Astroview' by Joseph F. Goodavage on lost continents and civilizations. "Now, however, we have a newer, even more mysterious discovery (Goodavage had been discussing five miles of enormous submarine stairs off the northern coast of Puerto Rico) - the remnants of an ancient 'Atlantis' in the depths of the Pacific off the coast of Peru. These rock columns jut from the silt of the ocean's bed in the middle of a zone of submarine earthquakes and belching volcanoes that encircles the entire Pacific. "Dr. Robert Menzies, director of ocean research at the Duke University Marine Laboratory, recently lowered his cameras from the research ship 'Anton Brunn' beneath a few thousand fathoms of water to within a few feet of the bottom and switched on his lights... Dr. Menzies' cameras accidentally photographed unnatural rock columns, several of them with engraving in some totally alien-seeming language. 'Was this some new Atlantis or Lemuria? There are no islands nearby from which they could recently have fallen; experts who studied the pictures believe they predate the ancient Inca civilizations by centuries - perhaps millennia! It happens that the people of ancient Peru had one of the most magnificent civilizations on earth when Europe was still in the Dark Ages. In addition to their well-known temples and pyramids, they also built what we call macadamized highways several miles long and suspension bridges! The other bit of evidence that may help explain the strange desert patterns in Peru is contained in an article in 'Esquire' on mod movie director Dennis Hopper, of all unlikely people, who made a hit with 'Easy Rider'. Describing an interview with Hopper on location for shooting a movie in Peru, the article said: "Beside him is the beautiful Pilar, staring moodily out at the dirt road, at brown Indians on muddy hillsides herding testy foolish-looking llamas, at the occasional brown cluster of roadside huts, and at the highest Andes jutting too abruptly and independently back-lot peaks painted on expertly stretched canvas. " 'Dig those mountains, man. Far out. The Indians have seen flying saucers land up there.' " This will not come as news to ufologists. The Andes, and in fact most of South America, are known by them to have a special attraction for our visitors from space. But the point is lost on orthodox scholars who try vainly to identify the ancient civilizations of that continent while ignoring our "ancestors" from other worlds. In varying degrees of size and feature, UFO occupants have been observed to resemble ourselves. If there were not some relationship, the odds against this being so would be beyond calculation. So out in space, it would seem, is the connecting link between us and the great cultures lost in upheavals researched so carefully by Velikovsky. Evidently we have (to page 26) 21 === Page 13 of 17 # THE EXPLORATION OF SPACE ## AND THE POSSIBILITY OF LIFE ON OTHER PLANETS **P. G. Gittins** **(continued)** Part 3. What are the possibilities of life on other planets? Before attempting to answer this question, it may be as well to define the term 'life'. By 'life' we mean a living organism, and to define this I quote from the Encyclopaedia Britannica:- "The necessary and sufficient condition for an object to be recognisable as a living organism, and so to be the subject of biological investigation, is that it be a discrete mass of matter, with a definite boundary, undergoing continual interchange of material with its surroundings without manifest alteration of properties over short periods of time and, as ascertained either by direct observation or by analogy with other objects of the same class, originating by some process of division or fractionation from one or two pre-existing objects of the same kind. The criterion of continual interchange of material may be termed the metabolic criterion, that of origin from a pre-existing object of the same class, the reproductive criterion." Living things have the same characteristics:- (a) Growth. (b) Reproduction. (c) Food requirements. (d) Respiration. (e) Metabolism - the sum total of all the chemical processes in a living thing. (f) Sensitivity - stimulus and response to touch. light heat electricity atmospheric conditions. (g) Adaption. Having thus defined our terms, let us proceed. A quick look at the other planets of our solar system seems to reveal a poor prospect for life. Mercury and Venus appear too hot, Mars has almost no air, Jupiter and Saturn seem to be swathed in ammonia and methane. But can life exist on Earth? A Martian astronomer, for example, would see a planet surrounded by a deadly gas, oxygen. It is well known that this very reactive element readily combines with almost anything, including the unstable compounds of hydrogen, carbon and nitrogen, out of which living organisms are built. All signs of life on Earth must surely be quickly oxidised to dust and ashes. (Only Earthmen know the remarkable methods developed by our bodies for coping with oxygen so that it does not burn us up.) Martian satellites despatched to photograph the surface from a couple of hundred miles up (as the Tiros and Nimbus weather satellites have done) would reveal no conclusive signs of life. THE EXPLORATION OF SPACE (from page 22) The biggest stir might have been caused by the observation that the Earth has suddenly become a powerful source of radio waves, a million times 'brighter' on medium wave lengths than Venus or Mercury. But how would they interpret it? Without domestic broadcasting of their own (and we haven't detected any) they might conclude that some unprecedented natural catastrophe was in progress. Arguments then, from one's own planetary experience, are thus tricky. All this leads to the question: How can man determine if other forms of life exist in the Universe? At his present stage of knowledge and technological development, man has four methods available to him. Let us consider each one in turn:- (i) Statistical Arguments: There are an estimated 150,000 million stars in our galaxy alone, a considerable proportion of which are similar to our Sun. There is no reason to believe our star unique. It is highly probable that there are thousands of millions of planetary systems similar to ours in our galaxy alone. On the basis of mathematical chances alone, some of these planets must be hospitable to life. According to Sagan of Harvard University and the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, and the Russian Academician Josef Shklovskii of the Sternberg Astronomical Institute, our Galaxy may contain at least 1,000 million habitable planets. The nearest promising stars, they say, are Epsilon Eridani, Epsilon Indi and Tau Ceti. These are 10.3, 11.3 and 12.2 light years away respectively - in other words, a spacecraft travelling near the speed of light would take over a decade to reach any one of them. The next question is how many of these myriad, if hypothetical planets are likely to contain life? And how many might contain 'advanced technical civilisations'? In recent years a number of researchers have been releasing electric sparks, - miniature bolts of lightning - through mixtures of gases and vapours (water, ammonia, hydrogen, methane) which are thought to represent primitive planetary atmospheres. They have been gratified to discover in the resulting mixtures a huge variety of complex organic substances like sugar, amino-acids, urea and others associated with life. The next step is to arrange for a complex molecule to reproduce itself. This too, has been done in a test tube, producing a simple form of nucleic acid, the genetic material which controls heredity. But there is a slight embarrassment: the reaction only works in the presence of an enzyme derived from a living organism. The enzyme is a protein - yet the synthesis of proteins is controlled by nucleic acids. If it needs a protein to make a nucleic acid and it needs a nucleic acid to make a protein, then the prospect of life in the primitive planetary soup would be poor. We must assume therefore, that some nucleic acids are formed 'spontaneously'. From then on, one can imagine a gradual evolution, steered by natural selection, of evermore complex aggregates of molecules, leading eventually to cells and multicellular organisms. Thus, in principle, life on Earth-like planets may be the rule rather than the exception. In practice we cannot do much more than guess. However, there is circumstantial evidence of biological processes on Mars: the 'waves of darkening' in spring and summer near the receding ice-caps, spectroscopic evidence that dark areas include organic molecules; and the curious fact that the red deserts appear to consist of an iron-rich compound containing much water and oxygen, normally found in the soils of hot, humid regions. Perhaps Mars was lushly tropical in the distant past? Within five years there may be some more direct evidence. Capsules are to be deposited on Mars from space probes. One of their prime tasks will be to detect any signs of life. Venus is covered in clouds and the nature of its surface is thus speculative. Sagan suggests it is "very like hell" with rocks glowing dull red in fierce heat trapped by the 22 (to page 23) 23 (to page 24) === Page 14 of 17 THE EXPLORATION OF SPACE (from page 23) clouds above. The recent Russian space probe seems to confirm this. Other theories propose an oily smog-like atmosphere or oceans of soda water. Up in the clouds it would be cold - suitable possibly, for the evolution of aerial organisms of some kind. Jupiter appears to have a primitive planetary atmosphere full of hydrogen, methane, ammonia, water and possibly frequent bolts of lightning - a promising scene indeed for some 'pre-biology' or for bizarre biological surprises. The other planets look poor life prospects in terms of Earth-type life. Nevertheless, as a planetary system, we have at least one planet with life (Earth), one which quite possibly has life forms now and may have had more in the past (Mars), plus two possibly 'pre-biological' planets (Jupiter and Venus). Thus, if the galaxy contains 1,000 million potentially 'habitable' planets, the total actually inhabited by SOMETHING could be very large indeed. (ii) By the study of meteorites: Here I should like to quote two actual examples of research:- (a) On 11th April 1925, a bright meteorite was seen above Southern Sweden, and a limestone ball landed near the small township of Bleckenstad, exploding on contact with the ground. The fall was observed by a number of witnesses and some fragments were subsequently collected by the assistant of Professor Assar Hadding of Lund University. Various circumstantial and none too convincing criticisms have been made of Hadding's identification - to disprove his claim that the limestone was of meteoric origin. This is, perhaps, not surprising, as it contained fragments of marine shells and of an animal resembling a tribolite. The limestone, however, was of a composition that does NOT occur in Sweden. (b) A few years ago whilst working with one such lump that landed in Orgueil, France, in May 1864, three chemists (Professor Bartholomew Nagy and Douglas J. Hennessy of Fordham and Dr. Warren G. Meinschein of the Esso Research & Engineering Company) found certain organic substances in the meteorite's core. 'Biotic' forms were found - materials representing life already emergent, formed and functioning. These 'biotic' materials were in the form of waxy or paraffinic hydrogen and carbon atoms similar to the arrangements found in Earth life such as the skin of apples. The process by which these hydrocarbons end up in the rock is suggestive of how coal is formed on Earth. Organic life (plant life) grows, dies, decomposes, becomes mixed with sediment and is eventually transformed into rocks. Like all important new discoveries, the findings raised some scepticism and yet more questions. One question in particular, of course, was: "Where did it come from?". In February 1967, a press report appeared in the Melbourne "Sun" claiming that a Dr. Johnson of Berkeley, California, U.S.A., had found traces of chlorophyll - the green colouring found in grass and plants - in clouds of dust drifting in outer space. This is the substance which is vital to life on Earth, and from which many scientists believe life first came. Dr. Johnson said: "The significance of my findings, if correct, is not only that a case for life chemistry in space can be inferred, but that the end product can be looked upon as a form of life similar to that on Earth. If this chlorophyll reached the surface of a planet, it could produce, in combination with other factors, at least a simple plant form. Commenting on this news item, Professor Alberto Mancinelli of Columbia University said: "I would say that if Dr. Johnson's claims are correct, he has discovered life in outer space." (iii) Listening for radio signals: Our own technical civilisation has existed for a very short time indeed on the cosmic time scale. Thus, if we are not unique, there should be many technical civilisations which are much older - unless it turns out to be a (to page 25) 24 THE EXPLORATION OF SPACE (from page 24) universal property of technical civilisations that they destroy themselves early in life - perhaps with immature tampering with atomic energy. But suppose they survive and flourish and are disposed to direct their skills and resources to cosmic exploration. Interstellar communication, let alone interstellar travel, sounds a desperately laborious business. Suppose that Epsilon Eridani boasts a civilised planet interested in communicating with us. Assume too, that the technical difficulties (which are formidable) are overcome. It would take ten years for a message to travel to Earth and another ten for us to answer back. To get some sense into the exchange would pre-suppose a mutually comprehensible code. An American radio-astronomer, Frank Drake, in 1965 fabricated an 'interstellar message' of over 550 dots and dashes, and asked distinguished scientists to decode it. They had very moderate success, although they knew the decoded result would be pictorial and that the code derived from a human mind (i.e. Drake's). It was Drake who ran 'Project Ozma' which monitored Epsilon Eridani and Tau Ceti for 200 hours in 1960, with a sensitive receiver attached to a big radio telescope - but with no result. Then on 13th April 1965, a report from the Russian News Agency, Tass, was published in London. It stated that a theory was held that intelligent beings were beaming radio waves to Earth. The source of the emission, known as CTA-102, was discovered in 1960 by two American astronomers. The basis for the Russian theory was the discovery by Gennady Scholomitsky, a Soviet astronomer, who claimed emissions from CTA-102 followed a regular flickering pattern repeated every 100 days. He said this suggested an intelligence responsible, rather than an 'accidental' source. Astronomers in Washington said the signals would need a lot more study, but they did not dismiss the possibility that there may be an 'intelligence' trying to communicate with Earth. (CTA-102 is an invisible spot in space, too distant to be seen by even the most advanced optical telescopes. Only radio-astronomers have picked up its mystery 'radio waves' by using giant radio telescopes. Just how far away is CTA-102, cannot even be speculated, but it is certainly thousands, and possibly millions, of light years out in space.) Both the Russians and the Americans have spent some time listening for 'sensible' radio signals from space - so far without result. In April 1966, Soviet astronomers proposed a new search for radio signals. They want to listen in to signals arriving from stars up to 1,000 light years away. Within this distance there are ten million stars. The suggested Russian experiment is to scan the sky continuously for from three to five years, using large radio telescopes. The Russians, basing conclusions on calculations done on a computer, say that a radio transmitter of 1,000 million watts could send signals which could be heard distinctly 2,940,000 billion miles away. Such a transmitter, the professors say, is feasible in the light of present day Earth technology. Therefore there is no reason to suppose that the 'inhabitants of other worlds' have not built one - and may be using it. The Russians proposed that the sky should be divided into segments, their calculations indicating that about 1,000 stars might be scanned this way. But how would a message be recognised? Nobody knows, but it would probably have a distinct pattern. They calculate, that although it might seem more profitable to a distant civilisation to transmit signals in all directions - they would stand a better chance of being picked up - this would require too much transmitter power. It was considered likely then, that any 'messages' coming at us, would be directed as a thin beam - occupying a narrow band of frequencies. But which band of frequencies? The only way to be sure, argue the Russians, is to listen to all of them. But the finance for such a scheme would be astronomical. (No pun intended!) One thing, however, is sure: because of the vast distances involved, one of the first qualities necessary for civilisations intent on cosmic communication, will be remarkable (to page 26) 25 === Page 15 of 17 "AVIATORS" OF ANTIQUITY (from page 21) been fathered or colonized not once or twice, but several times, by our other-world visitors. In Peru, as elsewhere, the history of their earthly association is still being written. ★ ---------- THE EXPLORATION OF SPACE (from page 25) patience. (iv) Space Probes: This is a method we are starting to use to a much greater extent as our knowledge increases. With instrumented space probes man has already reached and photographed Mars and the 'other side' of the Moon, and made successful attempts in reaching the planet Venus. Undoubtedly as our technology advances so will the space probes improve in range and ability, and many will be manned space probes. (to be concluded in the next edition.) ---------- ARE UFOs EXTRATERRESTRIAL SURVEILLANCE CRAFT ? (from page 28) our radar-fences and high-altitude radar-search systems see UFOs? If not of intra-solar-system origin, how could UFOs accomplish interstellar transits in reasonable times? Where could they be coming from? How is it possible that other military radar systems throughout the world have failed to detect UFOs if they are real? Why aren't they seen by airline pilots and military pilots? Why aren't they seen by astronauts in orbit? Why aren't UFOs seen occasionally by large crowds of people rather than by single witnesses? To these and related questions there exist some quite good answers and some possibly relevant speculative answers; to others of those questions, there exist no satisfactory answers, to date. 9) The first need in accelerating UFO research is for many more scientists and engineers to review carefully and critically the existing evidence in order to design new sensors. (Electromagnetic effects accompanying UFO sightings offer real promise herein.) Also, it is urgently important to exploit already existing radar networks. Data from the latter networks should be brought under scientific scrutiny to search for systematic patterns of UFO appearances and movements. Present anecdotal data, plus fortuitously revealed radar data, are inadequate to define such patterns accurately (due to the ridicule-lid effect acting as a non-random filter). Following design of sensor-networks specifically planned for UFO detection, a host of other investigations would naturally follow, as I have remarked in other contexts. A few specific examples of the latter will be cited. 10) As a low-cost, minimal-level precursor to such efforts to attain instrumental monitoring of UFOs, it is urged that various organizations and agencies take steps to establish exploratory UFO study programs, even if these involve only two or three scientists per organization. Any aerospace organization or agency that is interested in organizing such a small internal study can secure initial bibliography-assistance, etc., by getting in touch with me. The immediate need is to establish a broader base of scientific recognition of the astonishing nature of the existing UFO evidence. Scientific scoffing at UFOs has gone on long enough. Serious attention is long overdue. AIAA could perform a very useful role in stimulating new and vigorous examination of this intriguing, yet neglected scientific problem. (I am encouraged to learn that AIAA has, in fact, recently formed a UFO Subcommittee and am in touch with it.) Although only a percentually small number of scientists yet realize it, the past 20 years of yawning neglect of the UFO problem has become a scientific scandal, albeit still well-hidden. The sooner we take a serious new stance and confront the UFO question with adequate scientific talent and manpower, the less embarrassing will be the ultimate admission that we have, for two decades, been overlooking a problem of potentially enormous scientific importance to all mankind. ★ 26 # ARE UFOs EXTRATERRESTRIAL SURVEILLANCE CRAFT ? ## James E. McDonald ABSTRACT OF A TALK GIVEN MARCH 26, 1968 BEFORE THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF AERONAUTICS AND ASTRONAUTICS, INTERNATIONAL HOTEL, LOS ANGELES. ********** If it were insisted that I limit my entire talk to a one-word answer to the question posed in that title, I should find it hard to choose between the safer answer, "possibly", and the riskier answer that actually comes closer to my present opinion, "probably". The ever-increasing weight of the evidence I have been examining would drive me to the latter answer, if I had to compress an hour's remarks into a single word. Surely AIAA members would wholeheartedly agree that if there were even a slim possibility that the earth were under extra-terrestrial surveillance in any form, that would be a matter of the greatest scientific importance, warranting the most vigorous investigation. In fact, the evidence that seems to point to the conclusion that UFOs could be such devices is far from negligible; yet because of the history of official and scientific response to the earlier UFO reports, we continue to see mainly neglect or ridicule of this intriguing question. After nearly two years of intensive study of many facets of the long-standing UFO problem, after examining around a thousand UFO reports and directly interviewing several hundred witnesses in selected UFO cases of outstanding interest, and after weighing alternative hypotheses, I find myself driven steadily further towards the position that the extra-terrestrial hypothesis is the most probable hypothesis to account for the UFO. That hypothesis is, of course, not original with me; it has been urged for many years by persons knowledgeable with respect to the UFO problem, who spoke from outside scientific circles. Our collective failure to examine scientific aspects of the UFO problem will, I fear, be held against the scientific community when the full dimensions of the UFO evidence come to be recognized. And the latter date may not be far off. The principal points which I wish to emphasize include the following: 1) For the past half-dozen years, our American space program has been keyed to "the search for life in space", yet the now impressive UFO evidence that "life" may, in some sense, already have found us is either scoffed at or wholly ignored, even within such space-oriented agencies as NASA. I speak from first-hand experience in making that observation. 2) Twenty years of USAF responsibility in handling UFO reports appear to me to constitute about that same number of years of superficial and scientifically incompetent response to the UFO problem. Aside from brief periods in 1948 and again in 1952-3, USAF investigat- (to page 28) 27 === Page 16 of 17 ARE UFOs EXTRATERRESTRIAL SURVEILLANCE CRAFT ? (from page 27) ions of UFO reports have been perfunctory, aimed generally at finding any "explanation", however inadequately it might match the reported facts. 3) The principal reason that no other adequate scientific investigation has ever been initiated has been that, despite almost complete lack of any scientific expertise in the USAF program (Project Bluebook), public pronouncements have repeatedly given strong assurance that the investigations were drawing upon the best scientific talent available to the Air Force. Nothing could be further from fact. Examples will be cited to back up this point. 4) The present Air Force-sponsored study at the University of Colorado offered promise initially. However, repeated indications of negative bias in public statements by the Project Director, combined with lack of vigorous investigation of the most provocative types of UFO cases reported over the past 20 years, suggest that the Colorado program will fall far short of the required level of investigation. It is very desirable that some program be set up entirely divorced from Air Force affiliation, a conclusion underscored by recent developments at Colorado. 5) I have just returned from a visit to Canada where I discussed international scientific aspects of the UFO problem before the Canadian Aeronautics and Space Institute at their March 11-12 Montreal meetings. I emphasized the likelihood that UFO investigatory programs in countries other than the U.S. may have distinctly better chances of making rapid scientific progress towards clarification of the UFO question by virtue of the fact that they'd not be fighting uphill against the kind of thinking that USAF handling of the problem has engendered here. An encouraging new UFO investigation is, in fact, now being organized within the Institute for Aerospace Studies of the University of Toronto. I had an opportunity to confer with scientists beginning that study, on March 13. Quite recently, indications of a similar study being developed in France have appeared. The Russian position remains unclear. There are indications that a new level of official attention to UFO reports is appearing in other countries, but hard information thereon is still scant. 6) The types of UFO reports that are most intriguing, and point most directly to an extraterrestrial hypothesis, are close-range sightings of machine-like objects of unconventional performance characteristics, seen at low altitudes, and sometimes even on the ground. The general public is entirely unaware of the large number of such reports that are coming from credible witnesses, because ridicule and scoffing have made most witnesses reluctant to report openly such unusual incidents. When one starts searching for such cases, their numbers are quite astonishing. Also, such sightings appear to be occurring all over the globe, possibly with increasing frequency in the past year (an inference based on uncertain data because the "ridicule lid" seems to be lifting of late, and this may simply be bringing a larger fraction of such incidents to light). Examples will be presented. 7) Suggestions that such observations can be explained away in terms of meteorological optics (Menzel's principal thesis) or in terms of atmospheric plasmas (Klass' principal thesis) cannot be supported with cogent scientific arguments. The recently-published book by Klass ("UFOs - Identified") is filled with erroneous conceptions and with qualitative arguments that fall apart on assessing them in quantitative terms. Examples will be presented. 8) Many obvious questions and challenges can be, and must be, raised against the extraterrestrial hypothesis: How sure can we be that UFOs aren't some still poorly understood natural phenomenon? How can we be sure UFOs aren't secret test vehicles (ours or theirs)? If extraterrestrial, why no contact? Why no crashed UFOs? Why aren't there lots of good photos if UFOs are real? Why aren't UFOs seen in cities rather than in remote deserts and swamps? How can we be sure UFO sightings aren't hallucinations? How about hoaxes? Why no sonic booms? How can one account for non-inertial turns and maneuvers? Why don't optical-tracking programs, such as meteor-survey programs, photograph UFOs? Why don't (to page 26) 28 # STOP PRESS Reported Incident No.1. This occurred in Bairnsdale eighteen months ago on 21st. July, 1969, on the morning of the first moon landing. The time was about 5.10 a.m. The witness, a 16 year old girl, had risen early to watch the event on television. She switched the TV set on as she entered the room, leaving the room lights off. She then saw the object standing on the front lawn of her home. It appeared to her as a tall, rectangular pole shape. About 15 ft. distant from her it appeared 6 - 8 ft. high and 10 - 12 inches wide. It glowed white and there was a wedge-shaped shadow on the ground beside it. It did not give off a ray of light. It glowed. There was no sound. She watched for a moment and then, with the thought of being looked at through the window, she collapsed into a chair and huddled there for some time watching the TV. When other members of the family arose there was nothing to be seen. She had not seen the object leave. The only known substantiation of this sighting came next day when it was learned that, at the exact time the girl saw the object, the next-door neighbour heard sounds which suggested that someone was tampering with the car. Then that someone was on the back patio. Then that someone moved the blinds in the children's room. This the neighbour had gone to investigate but had found nothing unusual. The girl is a quiet child, a teenager and rather shy. Reported Incident No.2. This occurred along the road between Bairnsdale and Lakes Entrance on or about 1st. Sept. 1970. The time was about 8 p.m. The witness who reported this sighting lives in Stratford and is a married woman and nurse. She was travelling with two companions and was heading towards Lakes Entrance when all three persons in the car observed a light, with changing colours, converging on them from the south-west. Stopping the car, they got out to watch the light more clearly. They then switched off the headlights. At this the light appeared to accelerate its approach towards them. Frightened, they quickly got back into the car deciding to return to Bairnsdale and abandon all thoughts of going to Lakes Entrance. As they turned the car around the light stopped and changed its direction of travel going ahead of them much faster on a course which took it 3 miles or so south of Bairnsdale. It changed to a red colour as it went out of sight. There was no noticeable sound from the lighted object at any time. Reported Incident No.3. This occurred along the Princes Highway between Stratford and Bairnsdale on or about 23rd Sept., 1970, at 9.00 p.m. The witness, who also reported Incident No.2. (see above) of three weeks earlier, is a nurse and was driving from her home in Stratford to the hospital in Bairnsdale where she was due on night duty. She observed an approaching light in the rear vision mirror of her car and thought it to be a truck's headlights. As it came nearer she realized it was something flying at tree-top level. From 60 mph she slowed down to 45 mph so that she could safely look out of the car window at the light. The light was blindingly and brilliantly white and she was unable to say what shape or size she thought it might have been. The car now refused to accelerate and would not go faster than 45 mph, the radio became filled with the sound of static and the interior of the car became hot and drummed with such intensity that the witness suffered severe headache and shock. This situation continued for 24 miles (35 minutes) until she reached the first lights of Bairnsdale whereupon the light left her and flew off in a south south-easterly direction. ---------- FOR THESE REPORTS WE THANK MR.

But unusual situations require unusual measures. My name is Ted Owens. In this months' Saga Magazine now on the stands, you will read that I am one of 19 of this country's top psychics. That is, there are 19 top psychics in the United States...and I am one of the 19. In Brad Steiger's book, "What The Seers Predict For 1971", now on the stands, about America's greatest psychics...you will find a chapter on my work. Coming up in March and April '71 will be two more articles in Saga Magazine on my work. And National Enquirer is planning to do an article on my work, I have been told. In brief: I am a master...the ONLY master...of what is called "psi power" in scientific circles, in the United States. I have produced and documented over 200 miracles; thus miracles have become commonplace to me. Am sure that I can bring about two things: (1) Cause all of the birds in Scotland Neck (and the rest of North Carolina) to leave, not to return this winter or spring. And (2) Cause those same birds to stay away from your area completely from here on out in time. If you are interested, here is what to do: Arrange for transportation for me to Scotland Neck. A bus will do, or whatever. Arrange for a place to stay for me for three days, plus food. Arrange for a member of the town to drive me out to where the birds nest at night, each night for three nights. (Oh, and when I arrive in Scotland Neck you will give me $200 to cover my time and effort involved). Also my bus ticket or whatever will be round-trip, to get me back to Norfolk. If I am successful in making all of the birds leave Scotland Neck within 30 days...that is, 30 days from the time of my 3-day attack on them...you will send me a check to Norfolk for a thousand dollars. I.e., when I attack the birds, they might leave immediately...or it might take two or three weeks to get the job done. (I'll be gone home, but the power I leave there will keep on working and accelerating). If you would like to check with someone who knows of my work...you can call Mr. Otto Binder, famous author, who is completely familiar with my work.

I.e., do something constructive in a way that would be significant. Such has presented itself. Now, I am taking seriously the advice that Dr. Sprinkle gave you, which was to "work closely" with me. Otherwise I wouldn't be writing at this moment. In the paper today is an article "Birds Back In Greater Numbers". The article points out that approx. 13 million blackbirds, cowbirds, starlings and grackles now occupy a 40-acre pine woods at Scotland Neck, North Carolina. The Mayor requested state and federal help...but has been informed he cannot have any due to shortage of federal funds. My proposal. To use some of the 150-odd psi abilities which I possess...to make the birds leave almost immediately, and never come back. Two things more. Now I feel that to do this properly...I should be in that 40-acre area. Ordinarily...I do my psi work from anywhere at all, since there is no limiting factor re time and space in psi work. However, I can put to use several more of my psi abilities...if I am there physically. Now this is something that is strange to me...forcing 13 million birds to get out and then not come back. Not the medium that I've been using. BUT...I'd like to try the experiment, and feel that I could be successful with it. Among the various methods of psi that I would employ...would be the communication between myself and the birds, also the communication between myself and the "instinct" that brings the birds there, which of course must necessarily have intelligence...thus can be communicated with. All in all...I would employ 15 to 20 various psi methods in the experiment. I have no car to get there. So I would have to be driven there. It would have to be from Tuesday to Friday...I'm quite occupied at this time on the weekends. Also the day I would lose from work, I can't afford to lose...$20 means a lot to my family. So that missing $20 would be a problem to us. As you might surmise...I am severely handicapped in demonstrating my abilities for scientific study, because of having no money to travel, and no way to travel. With my abilities, understandably, the world is actually my test-tube.

Not controlling pro football teams now, nor making storms, or making lightning strike, or UFO's appear. This is big, really big." THE SI'S ARE GOING TO MAKE IT HORRIBLE AND IMPOSSIBLE...FOR PEOPLE TO LIVE, OR EVEN STAY, IN THE STATE OF NEVADA. The "bullseye" will be Las Vegas, Nevada...where the Si's will be nearby, unseen, beaming down certain rays to offset the laws of chance...and influence visitors' minds to literally hate Las Vegas...to leave Las Vegas and never come back. Also there will be a UFO near Reno, doing the same thing. There will be two other UFO's moving around, running other people out of other parts of Nevada. NEVADA WILL BE IN TIME AHEAD THE MOST ISOLATED STATE OF THE UNION. From now on, everything will go wrong in Nevada. The state will lose money, even go broke. (Yes, even with the gambling). People will be unhappy, miserable, unlucky, there. They will want to leave, without knowing why, even. Especially in Las Vegas and Reno. The weather will get freaky and bad. EVERYTHING will get bad in Nevada. No people...will wish to stay, and they will move out. The water will get bad, and scarce. Illness and sickness will spread. Cause unknown. This will be one of the most marked demonstrations that the Si's have ever given. And if the thugs and hoods think that by eliminating me, PK Man with a "hit"...they are badly mistaken. Nothing can call this back, or reverse this, except me, PK Man...the only human who can talk and commuunicate with the Si's. So if I'm gone...so is Nevada forever...with no chance of recall. This will be a modern "Sodom and Gomorrah" demonstration...with the only difference being in method. And as far as I am concerned...it couldn't happen to a better place. For I've been there, and know the place. Ugh and ickh. The only persons who will be safe in Nevada...will be those carrying a Si disc. They will not be affected. All other people...will be made to leave Nevada as surely as positive and negative poles reject each other. I have no way of knowing what the time factor on this will be. We'll have to see. But the outcome is as certain...as my PK === **Page: 2 of 3** 2 work on pro football teams. /S/ Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 This is to certify that I have this letter in my files, and I have quoted it word for word. Also, I live in Las Vegas...it is my home. One week after receiving this letter from Owens...there was a riot in downtown Las Vegas, in the rich casino district, involving a hundred negros. Fighting spread throughout a twelve-block area, and twelve people were hurt. Windows were broken, purses were snatched and cars were smashed with rocks and bottles. Sixty-five policemen tried, unsuccessfully, to stop all the rioting. (This was 7 days after Owens' letter). Two weeks later, Atomic Energy Commissioner Theos Thompson, America's top man in nuclear weapons development and testing, was killed while visiting Las Vegas to speak at a meeting of the state legislators in favor of continued nuclear testing...in a plane crash at nearby Lake Mead. A boat captain who witnessed the crash said that Thompson's plane was flying over the lake when it suddenly nosed straight down into the water "as if a giant hand was pushing it." (This blow to America's nuclear program came exactly Twenty-one days after I received Owens' letter.) At about this same time, Howard Hughes, internationally famous financier...suddenly left Las Vegas, where he had been staying for years at the Desert Inn...reputedly to go to the Brittania Hotel, 6th Floor, on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Following the departure of Hughes...all hell broke loose in Las Vegas. The people working for Hughes in Las Vegas (Hughes owns several of the biggest gambling casinos) split into two factions and began fighting with each other (legally). Then it got into the newspapers...all of this trouble...plus the fact that Hughes had discovered there were gangsters that had infiltrated into his gambling operations, and that his gambling games had been corrupted. (Bad bad publicity for Las Vegas). All of this mess, which has been brought to national attention in the newspapers...is still going on. And on December 13, 1970, the following article appeared in national newspapers: "U.S. Agents Raid Gambling In 26 Cities". .... "A prime target was Las Vegas, Nevada, where agents arrested two executives of plush Caesars Palace, a gambling casino...

It is also my belief that Owens' did in fact bring this all about... simply because nothing like this has or had happened before Owens' letter.

S Ross Conklin 221 E California Avenue Las Vegas, Nevada 89104 The evening of December 17th at 7P.M. Bill Bota and his sister were shopping at the Charleston Shopping Center and spotted a very bright object in the sky, along with hundreds of other shoppers. The object was whiter than white and seemed to just hang in the sky like a chandelier and made a boat of lightening look like a five watt bulb. The Army made a statement the next day, that it was a rocket sent up by the army. All those in the service know, a rocket NEVER hangs in the sky, IT MOVES, with the speed of LIGHT. All statements made by Owens' are true and wish to have my name with-held until April 15th, 1971, at that time I will be happy to re-lease my name to said statement.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 4** December 5, 1970......TO ALL CONTACTS You-all probably read about it last week in the papers. It was all over the papers. LANCE RENTZEL, Cowboys star...and one of the best pass-catchers in all of pro football history...did a crazy thing. He pulled his pants open and exposed his genitals to a 10-year-old-girl. And the police got him. And he faces a possible 20-year jail sentence. (Please, at this point: nobody mention the "vagaries" of pro football to me. How many other star players on nonPK'd teams have been arrested by the police this year in pro football? Answer: None. He's the only one. I'm talking about a serious charge, now...not a traffic ticket.) Now I'd like to quote you from Jim Smart's write-up about me, copy of which I sent you...the "weird Ted" one. "The PK works in a thousand ways. It will get the coach fired, make the owner go bankrupt. It's a huge, monumental jinx". So the Cowboys now have lost half of their team's punch...Bob Hayes being the other half. They are now about half as effective, really, as they were. Because Lance Rentzel was so great...his just being in the game worried the other team to death. But his pass-catching was a thing of genius. No more, however. Now, you might argue thusly: Why, Owens, your attempt to take five teams apart, over a period of time, with PK...could have nothing to do with Lance Rentzel's doing a crazy thing like that (when he's married to a movie star, has everything). I'll simply refer you to a column Stan Hochman wrote about me several years ago...after he'd taken me to a football game, and I'd sent PK after one man, Tom Woodeshick (telling the PK to get Woody out of the game) and in ten minutes Woodeshick rushed out onto the field, hit a Cowboy in the face...and was thrown out of the game, by the officials. In his write-up, Stan Hochman said: "But what flash of insanity provoked him (Woodeshick) to rush off the bench with his fists flurrying. Ted Owens did it. Honest." And Hochman confirmed that I'd done what I said I'd do...get Woodeshick out. Several weeks ago...during a Cowboys game on TV that I was watching, I asked the "PK force" to get Rentzel and Hayes out for the season. (I meant, of course, with some small injury.) Well, it sure did, with Rentzel. (I've requested the PK force to get Rentzell off, somehow. Because I wouldn't want him to go to prison. I would not want to put the Cowboys down with PK...at the price of another man's freedom.) Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Thanks for your letter. Been a bit dull lately. Things will perk up. === **Page: 2 of 4** Monday, December 7, 1970 TO ALL CONTACTS Those of you who watched the Oakland Raiders/Jets game yesterday, I want to say that you are lucky. You saw one of my finest "PK" efforts. A miracle happen. It went this way. The Raiders/Jets game was the only game I could get on TV...containing one of the "fatal five". In addition to wishing to beat the Jets, I wanted Oakland to boost its lead over the Chiefs, or at least hold its own with the Chiefs in the standings. Well, the game was very frustrating. Like so many of the Target Team games these past few weeks, this one was the same. The PK worked on the Jets all right...yet Lamonica of the Raiders seemed bent and determined upon throwing the game away for the Raiders. He passed time and again straight to the Jet players. Sometimes there wasn't a Raider around the Jet receiver on the interception. Well, there were only eight seconds to go in the game...and the Raiders had to have a touchdown to win (by one point). I asked the PK intelligence on the field to please give me a miracle (I heartily dislike to invest several hours of PK work, intense concentration, and then fail). With a second left, Lamonica hauled off and threw the ball into the end zone. One single Raider was standing there, surrounded by three Jet players. Sure enough, Lamonica was being consistent. The ball zinged its way straight to a Jet player. The player caught the ball in his hands...then the ball leaped like a wounded rabbit out of his hands...over his shoulder...and into the hands of the surprised Oakland Raider player, for a Raider touchdown. And the Raiders won by one point. And I got my miracle from the PK intelligence on the field. (For those of you who've wondered how Blanda, week in and week out, for five straight games...won by a "miracle" in seconds each game... this is your answer. The PK is trying to drive the Raiders ahead of the powerful Chiefs). Anyway, after this touchdown, and the game won for the Raiders, the TV announcer said the Raider coach was in deep shock from the thing. You'd have had to have seen the poetic beauty of it...to really understand and appreciate it. The football acted with intelligence and direction. This was PK at its best, it's very best. And you'd better believe it! Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 === **Page: 3 of 4** Dec. 12, 1970 Dr. Hynek. For some time...I have been looking for a situation...where I could demonstrate the psi powers that I have...without a destructive basis. i.e., do something constructive in a way that would be significant. Such has presented itself. Now, I am taking seriously the advice that Dr. Sprinkle gave you, which was to "work closely" with me. Otherwise I wouldn't be writing at this moment. In the paper today is an article "Birds Back In Greater Numbers". The article points out that approx. 12 million blackbirds, cowbirds, starlings and grackles now occupy a 40-acre pine woods at Scotland Neck, North Carolina. The Mayor requested state and federal help...but has been informed he cannot have any due to shortage of federal funds. My proposal. To use some of the 150-odd psi abilities which I possess... to make the birds leave almost immediately, and never come back. Two things there. Now, I feel that to do this properly...I should be in that 40-acre area. Ordinarily...I do my psi work from anywhere at all, since there is no limiting factor re time and space in psi work. However, I can put to use several more of my psi abilities...if I am there physically. Now this is something that is strange to us...forcing 12 million birds to get out and then not come back. Not the medium that I've been using. BUT...I'd like to try the experiment, and feel that I could be successful with it. Among the various methods of psi that I would employ...would be the communication between myself and the birds, also the communication between myself and the "instinct" that brings the birds there, which of course must necessarily have intelligence...thus can be communicated with. All in all...I would employ 15 to 20 various psi methods in the experiment. I have no car to get there. So I would have to be driven there. It would have to be from Tuesday to Friday...I'm quite occupied at this time on the weekends. Also the day I would lose from work, I can't afford to lose...$20 means a lot to my family. So as you might surmise...I am severely handicapped in demonstrating my abilities for scientific study, because of having no money to travel, and no way to travel. With my abilities, understandably, the world is actually my test-tube.

I have the 'Nevada PK Project," the "Pratt PK Project", the "Pro Football PK Project" and the NASA PK Project". Today am adding still another. Last night my boy, age 8, and me watched a TV show which showed how the animals are being killed off around the world...to where there are a very few left. We watched a mother polar bear romping happily with her two cubs...until a helicopter landed, men jumped out, and pumped bullet after bullet into the mother bear...which fell, helpless, able only to call out to her two little ones which huddled nearby in fear. We watched while a big brave cowboy riding herd on a bunch of cattle unlimbered his rifle and shot a tiny prairie dog, which fell backward...tried in vain to "talk" with its paws...then was blown into the air with a second shot. At this point my little boy was screaming in horror...tears streaming down his face...begging me not to let any more be killed. Next scene was big brave hunters surrounding some seals, which were frolicking with their young. Obviously the seals didn't know about what kind of living thing the humans were, nearby. The humans beat their brains out with clubs...mama seal, daddy, seal, then baby seals. At this point my boy was hysterical. He's queer. He loves tiny animals..or any animals, for that matter. We watched natives slaughter giraffes; we watched humans slaughter kangaroos, with the baby still in it's pouch; and so on and on. It was the absolute worst program I've ever watched. And yet...since it was truth, told through the camera's eyes...it set fire to a fury inside me unmatched by anything ever in my life. There is one thing...I wish to interject here...which I have not told you. Psi-power (PK mechanisms), besides not being limited by time, distance or mass...ARE OMNISCIENT AND OMNIPRESENT. I'll wait until you look those up, if you don't know what they mean. Let me spell it out. When I "PK" Joe Doakes...that means I send powers and mechanisms which cannot be seen, smelled, tasted, felt, or heard...to make a disaster area out of Joe Doakes. And the outcome is absolutely inevitable. It's just a matter of when. The "PK" has unlimited intelligence to fulfill its mission...and in case Joe Doakes changes his geographical location...the PK is everywhere at once. Okay. So here is what I am now doing. I AM SENDING FORTH, ISSUEING, PK MECHANISMS (PSI FORCE) TO ATTACK HUNTERS ALL OVER THE WORLD...in effect, I am arming every animal in this world which might be hunted, no matter how small, or how big, with a weapon far deadlier than the hunter's gun. Let me spell it out. From now on, whenever a big brave cowboy takes out his rifle and blows out the brains of a small, innocent prairie dog...immediately that cowboy is an accident waiting to happen...to be paid off in the same coin as he killed the prairie dog! If a hunter kills a little seal...same thing. If a business executive kills a bear, or a wolf, or anything at all...same thing. Just a matter of time until he gets the same thing from the PK force stalking him! He'll just get it...in a different place...under different conditions. In short...from now on...any hunter that kills any animal, creature or bird...which he doesn't have to eat to live...will be himself killed, destroyed, by a PK force which will follow him, stalk him, until it brings it about! I'm not interested in people who have to make their living by selling skins. Or any other parts of animals. If they kill, they will be killed. The PK === Page 3 of 15 2 will take care of these hunters, these people, automatically. Let me make this clear: if hunters want target practice...let them shoot at tin cans or paper targets. THEY HAD BETTER NOT SHOOT AT ANIMALS OR BIRDS UNLESS THEY HAVE TO HAVE THE GAME TO EAT TO LIVE! This is the absolute rule: only persons who have to have food, game, to eat to live...will be safe from this omnipresent, omniscient psi-power guard over the animals. Any other persons...will be ruthlessly destroyed, after they ruthlessly destroy any animal or bird unnecessarily. Now...I have already issued this PK attack...but one thing remains to be done which is quite important. WARN PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD THAT THIS IS IN EFFECT. To do this...I have only one way. Otto Binder is doing some articles on my work in Saga Magazine. I am herewith begging Otto to include this intelligence, this information, in one of the forthcoming articles...so that hunters will be warned. I don't care if hunters laugh at what I say...it's like laughing while shooting Indians at Custer's last stand. If Otto can get this in to Saga...it will save a lot of people's lives. Because the PK attack is already out, unleashed...and each and every animal in the world is now armed and ready...even though it doesn't know it. As soon as that animal is killed by a hunter, no matter where in the world it is...if it is unnecessary...the PK will then attack and destroy the human hunter. Just as a matter of human interest...my little boy begged me last night to do just this...it was HIS idea. He said, "Daddy, please use your PK to keep all the little animals from being killed!" With tears in his eyes. And I agreed with him; wholeheartedly and completely. And so be it. -- Before I forget...I have a new phone number...855-2843. Better mark that down. One last thought: watched the Senior Bowl today. They made a big mistake. Put Weeb Ewbank, coach of the Jets, in charge of a team. Of course his team lost...because he's saturated with "attack PK". That's it for now. You can look...in time ahead...for a spate of deadly "accidents" involving hunters...unless Otto Binder can get the word out in time, on a national level. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Va. 23514 === Page 4 of 15 January 2, 1971 TO ALL CONTACTS You haven't heard from me for some time...not because I've been idle with psi work...but because I've been too broke to buy stamps, paper, envelopes and time...to write all 35 of you. This year...am going to ask you to send me $10 each to cover the year's expenses of getting my material (magazines, books, letters, etc.) out to you. (Scientists are excluded from this). Enclosed is a notarized affidavit from Mr. Conklin in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Si's and I decided to exert psi force on the state of Nevada in November '70. Since Mr. Conklin is my only contact in that state...I notified him, as the self-explanatory affidavit explains. BUT SOMETHING MUST BE ADDED TO THE AFFIDAVIT, to the catastrophes that have hit Nevada and Las Vegas SINCE MY LETTER OF NOTIFICATION TO THAT INTENT, as follows: 12/9/70..."DUST CLOUD FOLLOWED 'NORMAL'N-BLAST"...Mercury, Nevada (AP)..."Baneberry, the code name for the Atomic Energy Commission's 230th announced underground nuclear test here since 1963, went off normally and created a spherical cavern 900 feet below the desert sand. WHAT FOLLOWED FIVE MINUTES LATER FRIDAY WASN'T NORMAL. The AEC said pressure from the blast, equivalent to detonation of about 20,000 tons of TNT, SPEWED RADIOACTIVE DUST FROM THE SHAFT IN WHICH THE NUCLEAR DEVICE HAD BEEN PLACED. A DIRTY BROWN COLUMN OF DUST AROSE AND WITHIN MINUTES REACHED 8,000 FEET. WITHIN HOURS IT SPREAD OVER 1,000 SQUARE MILES..." Later a newsclip said cows' milk in Nevada had been found to be radioactive. Some time ago I wrote the government, from the Si's...and WARNED the government that the Si's would not stand for any more nuclear test explosions. This horrible accident, above, and the new Si (psi force) attack on Nevada.. plus the killing of Atomic Energy Commissioner Thompson, America's top man in nuclear testing...is the Si answer to the government's ignoring of my letter to them. Also enclosed is an article about me and my work by Larry Maddry, columnist for the Virginian-Pilot in Norfolk, Virginia. Although it is written tongue-in-cheek style, Maddry knows what I can do. I have given him one heck of a demonstration this past summer (though it was primarily for Otto Binder, Maddry was here on the spot and sweated out the lightning attacks, etc.) It is humorous that he and his family out on the water with his boat named "Lightning" got caught up in one of my furious storms. Ha ha ha! Now let's talk about pro football, and the use of my mind to control five certain teams so that they could not win the World's Pro Championship this year. By this writing I have eliminated four out of the five, just having held down the Miami Dolphins so that they could be beaten (they're an exceptionally tough, persistent team to beat with psi power...but I've done it). I told Larry Maddry before the season began that I would knock out these teams, and told him specifically that I would cause key injuries to the Jets to take them apart...and when they got into their season this year their entire backfield, Namath, Snell, etc., got wiped out! with injuries. Tomorrow I must attack the Dallas Cowboys with my mind and do my best to beat them. I held them to only 5 points last week...but their opponents, the Lions, didn't score one touchdown...and lost. Remember, my psi force can't pick up the ball and make touchdowns for the opponents. Tomorrow the 49'rs have to do their share of the work...and if they do, the psi power of my mind added will crush the Cowboys. If not, I'll get 'em the following week for sure. === Page 5 of 15 (Note: P. 1 was written Saturday. This is now Monday. The Cowboys on yesterday. My PK worked fine...but the 49r QB, Brodie...gave the game away...threw the ball to a Cowboy on his, 49r, 17 yard line and of course the Cowboys went on in. It seemed deliberate; not an accident. He's the best passer in pro football; and I've played football myself, pads and all (had a player killed close to me during a game); anyway Brodie flung this pass straight to the Cowboy, only about 6-8 yards away. The PK cannot help a team that beats itself. It was this gift of 7 points to the Cowboys that was the winning edge. You can't give 7 points to the other team in a championship playoff and hope to win. Now I have only one more chance to stop the Cowboys; in the Superbowl.) You remember my writing to you...about Lance Rentzel, star on the Cowboys, exposing his genitals to a minor and getting put out of action by the law. Okay. December 15 on my "fatal five" list put out of action in a weird way. Nate Ramsey, of the Eagles, was on the street when a man walked up to him, pulled out a pistol, said "I'm going to kill you" and shot him right in the chest. No warning. Ramsey's wife said it was "unreal". She couldn't believe it. I'm happy to say Ramsey lived, and is getting well now. But these two cases...are cases in point of how PK stalks and attacks in different ways...not necessarily always on the football field. Several years ago when I was PK'ing the Eagles hot and heavy in Philly, an Eagles player stood up in the Eagle dressing room just after a game...and caught his head on a hook on the wall...and ripped his head wide open. They had to take many many stitches in it. A news reporter printed "the Eagles aren't even safe in their own dressing room". And the reporter was right. Leonard Tose of the Eagles, Dec. 18, '70, told reporters: "If you know a guy who is capable of winning 10 games here, I'd hire him". Now, he was referring to a coach. BUT I AM CAPABLE OF WINNING 10 GAMES A YEAR FOR THE EAGLES. So...why doesn't he hire me, and keep the coach he has? It's the PK that's beating the Eagles; not the coach. Okay. Nuff about that. Add confirm to my Nevada PK Project...January 3, 1971, newsclip re Nevada "...tied a record low temperature for Jan. 3 with 11 below zero early Sunday morning.." (Note my mention of radical weather in my Nevada PK "prediction".) I want to get something on record here. For years I've been studying a phenomenon, and have acquired enough material on it, to substantiate my theory. A PERSON'S NAME...CAN DETERMINE, MAKE, SHAPE THE LIFE OF THAT PERSON! Let me explain. Dick BUT...KUS, of the Chicago Bears team, is famous for hitting and butting people! Charlie WINNER, a pro football coach, was hired to coach a pro team because he is a winner! WAR...WICK is the name of another pro football player, rough and tough. He's in a war of sorts constantly. HARDMAN is another pro football player who delights in slamming people just like Butkus does. He's developed into a 'hard man'. Bart STARR became a star...pro football player. Tops. And so on. Just today in a newsclip I noted that the government prosecutor against a man who allegedly committed murder in Saigon while a soldier...is named Capt. John FAIR...LEY. Fairley. His job is to see that justice is done...that things are fair. I could go on and on. But this fact is concrete: name a little boy COWARD, and he'll grow up to either BE an actual coward, or will fight that name subconsciously all his life and go to the other extreme to be a hero in the armed forces or such. === Page 6 of 15 I want to go a little further with my findings. I've discovered that criminal after criminal...killers, kidnappers, etc, after they've been caught...are found to have messages tattooed on them. "BORN TO LOSE", or a picture of a dagger with blood dripping, things like that. I am convinced that the body of the person so tattooed...acts on these tattooed messages (since all body cells have intelligence), thinking that that person wanted such a future...AND BROUGHT IT TO PASS FOR THAT PERSON! Here's another case for my "name theory"; Dec. 27, '70, police in Honolulu caught three men for killing a young girl. One of the killers is named... JESSE JAMES Bates! See what I mean? On the same page of the newspaper is another story, in Baltimore, Maryland... a man killed another man and hacked up the body into pieces. The killer's name? William C. HACKER! Okay. That covers that. But someday when the brilliant scientists discover that people actually act out in their lives...their own names...remember that PK Man told you first. Whether you know it or not...I informed the government some years ago that the Si's would reflect MY OWN financial condition and well-being...onto the entire United States! If I am poor, then the Si's will cause the U.S. to be ten times as poor as I am. Please note the condition of the country at this time. And...I am very very poor. Barely making it day by day. Funny...that nobody will believe the Si's. Also a few years ago the Si's told me to tell the government..."The Si's say how would you (the govt.) like to lose NASA?" Now I quote from an article in the paper by Howard Benedict a few days ago: "Cape Kennedy, Fla. (AP)" "After years of success, the United States space program turned sour in 1970...near disaster struck the Apollo 13 mission in April...because of the accident, Apollo 14 was delayed until 1971...the trouble also caused an already-stingy Congress to cut deeper into the budget of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. As a result, two of the six remaining Apollo moon flights were canceled...many scientists were unhappy...NASA launched only 12 rockets in 1970...three of the 12 shots failed, including the loss in November of a $98.5 million astronomical observatory (OGO), the most expensive unmanned satellite ever built. Obviously unhappy with the lack of support from Congress, NASA administrator Thomas O. Paine (note that name. Ted.) resigned in September. President Nixon has been unable to find a successor. "We are at the peril point," Paine said of space funding and the loss of competent personnel. Thousands of NASA and contractor workers were laid off as space employment dropped to 145,000 from a peak of 420,000 in 1966." When oh when, I wonder...will the U.S. Govt. pay attention to what I tell it? How many billions must it lose...how much grief must it endure...until it discovers that giving PK Man the little that he needs to carry out Si orders... would have saved them, the govt., all those billions and all that grief? -- At this point let me interject here: The Si's are happy that their story is now slowly coming to public notice...Saga magazine, perhaps a book soon, and National Enquirer is getting ready to do a piece...so neither I nor the Si's... will hit the oncoming Apollo shot with lightning or otherwise cripple the shot (sweating out getting the astronauts back as before). No. This shot is "on the Si's" and they'll actually help in every way possible. Anything goes wrong...will be man-made; not Si or PK Man made. They have to help...because although the grid mechanism that was put up over Cape K years ago, a PK psi mechanism, was dismantled...still the PK effects linger on. And the Si's have to help the shot clear these effects. === Page 7 of 15 (I hope that you appreciate all this work in this letter. It will take a full day to type it to 35 people; make all the copies, etc. What I could do with a secretary and a Xerox!) Today in the paper...was an article that now the government is concerned with toilets that flush...and waste yea billions of gallons of precious water, now that water is getting scarce. 15 years ago I told my then wife, Pat Owens (now Pat Shannon) that this would come to pass...scarcity of water in time ahead...and I worked out a tiny incinerator set inside a commode...with a tightly-shutting door when a lever is pressed...so that the contents of the commode would incinerate, the human waste, thus negating the need for the sewers, water, etc. But I didn't know how to go about patenting it and all the rest, so I dropped the project. -- Here is another thing I want on the record: an answer to the mysterious crib deaths that kill so many babies each year. What causes it...are chemicals in the detergents used to launder the sheets on the baby's crib...the baby inhales the toxic chemicals...and since the baby hasn't yet matured enough to overcome the effects of the fumes...it sets up a toxic reaction in the baby which acts like pneumonia and kills it. Probably mostly when it is lying face down...gets it the quickest. I'd like to bet you...that one of these days scientists will confirm that I'm correct! -- Here's another interesting thing; lately people I've been sending discs to report that UFOs have been seen over their city! Olga Marchant in San Diego sent me newsclips to that effect...AND STRANGE GREEN HUMANOID CREATURES WERE SEEN ON THE STREETS THERE...by police, even! Also Hank Paski just sent me a newsclip that five UFOs were seen over Anchorage, where he lives, by three city policemen, as well as many other people who reported them. They could not have been helicopters; this was checked out. The Air Force reported it had no planes up at that time. The FAA said they'd seen the lights, but that nothing was on radar. The Weather Bureau said conditions were too weak to produce such phenomena. And the newsclip ended with "So until somebody can come up with a good reason, Anchorage might as well keep checking out the skies at about the 2,000-foot level, just in case". (This was from the Anchorage Daily News, Dec. 14, 1970). Both Hank and Olga wear my Si disc around their necks. And yet still another. Phyllis Lynch, Box 538, GPO Bronx, 10451, NY, NY, writes me that she received my disc and put it on, then: "When I first wore the necklace, my little ones and I were on the subway on our way to the uptown Bronx. As I got off the 219th St. Station, I was attracted to a man and a little retarded girl. I was watching her reactions as he was talking to her. As we were walking up 219th St. this man and little girl were looking up towards the sky. Then my children and I looked up. There up there I saw something like three stars and a cloud-like halo (remember the UFO halo seen over Norfolk this past summer? Ted.) around this vehicle hovering over the area. There was no sound because I said to him, gee, I hear no sound up there. He said no you don't. Then after a few minutes it left the scene. Directly after that an airplane appeared and left. I take it that it might have been a flying saucer. It dawned on me then maybe that is what it was." And she was wearing my disc, same as Olga and Hank! -- Now, before closing...I have something most important to put on record. I awoke about a month ago...and was aware that, as had happened before, the Si's had been teaching me, talking to me, in my sleep. And it was fresh in my mind! === Page 8 of 15 (Incidentally, before I forget...if anyone wants to check with Pat Shannon re my prediction 15 years ago (approx.) that water would become precious and scarce...and there would be a need for a commode-incinerator...she lives at 17405 112th NE, Kirkland, Washington. She's a pleasant person, and am sure she will remember and confirm this.) Back to what the Si's told me in my sleep. We are just at this time making startling discoveries re psi force. As a scientist recently stated, psi force could be the fifth greatest power in the universe! Russia is far ahead of us. I'm the only human in America with practical experience in using it, and researching it, in action conditions. No doubt about that. I'm not talking about countless dice experiments, now. I'm talking about hitting rockets that are going up with PK mechanisms to make them fall down. I've done that successfully. Even hit one with lightning; documented. I'm talking about guiding hurricanes successfully; even making triple simultaneous hurricanes; I've done that and documented it. No one in the world can even begin to approach what I know about psi force and its usage in actual application. Not even in Russia. All right. But...Moses brought about such phenomena. So did Ezekial. Both claimed "the Lord" made it happen, and they were human representatives like me. So...it has happened before. And in Egypt...curses were put on tombs...that hundreds or thousands of years later killed those who violated the tombs in odd, weird ways. (Same PK as that I can use...I know it and understand it as if I'd been there at that time). Okay. I wrote the U.S. Govt. a few years ago and WARNED it that if the Egyptian pyramids were flooded (as was the plan) that ancient PK in those pyramids would reach out and destroy those that caused it. Please note...the deadly situation in that area today! Couple of years ago I wrote the big museum in New York, where that Miami burglar broke in so daringly...that if that museum had in fact pieces taken from Egyptian tombs that had been PK'd long long ago...that the PK would react on the area around those pieces! Since I wrote, note what has happened to New York! So many bad things I won't even go into it. If you don't know, you haven't been reading the papers. I.e., PK'd objects (and if they were in those tombs long ago, then removed, they are saturated with destruct-PK) can be taken to far away places...causing chaos and havoc at those far away places! In the other countries where these pieces are taken, the PK'd articles do their deadly work...causing dissension, murder, violence, war...perhaps to the ultimate point of exterminating everyone in that country, because the PK curse is not limited to time or space or mass! Another point: Ages ago...humans might have used psi force (PK mechs) in our own geographical location (U.S.) Now, PK never dies! That is, the destruct form of psi phenomena simply keeps on growing with time! Suppose one of our cities was the site of an ancient, psi-force war. Today...that city would be dogged by crime, murder, killing, deadly accidents, etc. Even a spot on some highway...long long ago that was a psi-force target...today that spot would be weirdly marked by one auto accident after another. (I've read of spots just like that). Furthermore, a human being could unwittingly walk through an ancient PK'd area, still existing today only much more powerful now than then...and that human would then be a deadly accident waiting to happen somewhere soon. Do you know what I mean? If not, write to me and I'll try to clarify it. === Page 9 of 15 ...psi force...is just like an x-ray superimposed over an area. Invisible, it can't be noted by any human senses. It is entirely probable that animals can sense it being there. The malignant, deadly psi force...even left from ages past...still alive and still growing in power. Oh, before it skips my mind...have something humorous to tell you. I recently wrote to a professor in a western university...and offered to let the university hire me as a teacher in psychology and parapsychology. (I can flat guarantee you...that I have a thousand times to offer, what the usual prof in psychology and parapsychology has to offer. Because my education and practical experimentation in these fields...has begun where all the others have left off.) The professor wrote back a letter patiently pointing out that I have no academic title or background for teaching such, thus it could not be. But, he added...perhaps I could write about it. I nearly fell off my chair laughing. Think of it! The priceless knowledge which I alone have, with regard to psi phenomena...and wanted to pass on to others in the U.S. My ability as a memory expert, to teach others how to memorize entire books, magazines, tests, facts, etc. My ability as probably the world's best in the field of hypnotism...with the secrets the Si's have given me...to pass on in the classroom to bright pupils. My terrific ability with ESP...PK and precog. and all the rest...which I could pass on to pupils, the know-how and the practical usage. REJECTED. Oh, if I'm lucky I can write it down sometime...that is, when I'm not working yea-hours a day typing on papers to make a buck, with no secretary, no time...to do so. And give it as a gift to humanity. Ha ha. You know something...I'LL JUST KEEP IT ALL TO MYSELF, and that will serve the rest of humanity right! Several years ago I wrote to NASA and warned them...that Russia might be able to attack NASA space flights with psi force, just as I could...and that I would be glad to go down to NASA and give them an educational lecture on just what psi force can do. THEY DIDN'T EVEN ANSWER! Now, of course, it has just come out in that recent Argosy article...what Russia can do with psi force. And what has happened to NASA since I wrote to them...they fully deserve! Back to what the Si's told me re psi force, overnight: The "Bermuda Triangle" where planes and ships have vanished...was, long ago, the geographical location of a powerful psi force attack...the most powerful in the earth's history. Since the power was never dissipated..it keeps on attacking ships, planes and people! The Si's explained that an OBJECT or a PLACE can be PK'd with psi force... deliberately to destroy civilization there hundreds or thousands of years later...since the PK grows and expands in time, space and mass, as time passes. And they say this WAS done long ago, by someone or some thing, that knew what I know today! They said THAT I COULD DO THIS, BRING THIS ABOUT MYSELF. (But I know the Si's...they wouldn't consider me a fit instrument of theirs, if I did such a thing. And of course I won't.) Also want to mention before closing...that consistently, TV sports events, one after another that I'm watching...TV technical difficulties lose the picture, lose the sound. It's either my Si-powered-brain doing it, or the "grid" I placed over Norfolk last summer doing it (although I've since tried to take the grid down. I know very little about removing PK, actually.) I PREDICT...THAT AMERICA IS IN FOR A TERRIBLE BLOW...within 30 days! Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS, Norfolk, Virginia 23514 === Page 10 of 15 January 14, 1971 TO ALL CONTACTS I think I'm off my rocker...for wasting my precious time, and going to the necessary expense...to send all 35 of you this particular letter. But am going to do it anyway. As you know, Brad Steiger gave me a chapter in his recent book, "What The Seers Predict for 1971!"..I knew what he wanted...but I chose instead to lay out the long-range future of the U.S. as I saw it, precognitively. In this letter I will get back to the herd...and give you my precog impressions of this specific year, 1971, coming up from this date. GOVERNMENT There's an old saying in playing poker in the Navy..."down and dirty" for the last card in a five-card stud game. Or was it seven. Anyway...this year is IT for the U.S. Government. As everything collapses around it, the govt. will be unable to cope. And as it becomes unable to cope, the people will lose all confidence in it...become infuriated with it...and reject it. To be more specific...as everything goes broke everywhere (due to years of U.S. flushing yea billions of dollars down the give-away drain) the govt. will not be able to stop the runaway car going down the hill without brakes...and it will crash at the bottom. Kaput government. This year the U.S. economy will FAIL (Nixon's prognosticating notwithstanding) and yea businesses will go broke. Railroads will throw up their hands; banks fail; the stock market will hit bottom and for all practical purposes go out of business because (1) people won't have money to buy stocks and (2) even if they did they won't trust stocks anymore after this year. -- The govt. will shuck Admirals, Generals, Colonels, etc., off the cob galore. Tough year for the brass. The govt. won't be able to afford keeping them on the payroll after this year. -- Younger members of the govt. (Congressmen, Senators, etc.) are going to drive the older members (in the majority) nuts this year...going for changes in government setup. (Long overdue; and, like a tonsillectomy for an adult...it should have been done when the adult was a young child. Now...the changes are going to be painful...if there's time before utter destruction of our government setup.) And of course the old men in govt. will fight back, no holds barred...to stop progress. An old story. -- President Nixon may not be able to survive this coming year, strange as that may seem now. He hasn't an inkling how fast everything will escalate to knock Humpty Dumpty off the wall. And Humpty Dumpty he will be. Unfortunately. He hasn't paid attention. -- Making matters worse, REVOLUTION in the U.S. will rear its deadly head this year as it has never done in our history...and strike in a deadly manner with cobra venom in its fangs. This will drive the govt. to even more distraction, considering all its other shattering problems which it must face...and can't possibly solve. -- Some top government men will die. I believe six will. Men of top status. This from militant action and revolutionary force. Agnew will probably be one, for starters. Senators and Congressmen had better hire bodyguards, as of right now. === Page 11 of 15 2 BUSINESS Generally speaking...business will completely fall apart and go bust in 1971. Small businesses will go into bankruptcy everywhere. Only huge corporations may be able to hold on...yet many of them will sink, too. Banks will fail here, there and everywhere. The stock market will fail. People will "run" on the stock market, eager to get out what they can and put it in a shoe box in their backyard. Unemployment will shoot up, skyrocket, in 1971...as prices shoot up and skyrocket, yet salaries of workers remain much the same. And the workers will rebel, and strike, and confusion and chaos will spread all over the country as this occurs. The Mafia and the Syndicate will have a hay-day...they'll be in clover. Why? Because they have all the money they want...their problem is how to get rid of it legally. This will be their BIG chance. As small businesses fail, the crooks will snap them up. As corporations fail, the crooks will take them over. As people desperately cash in on their real estate holdings everywhere...the crooks will gladly buy it everywhere. What will the police be doing all this time? Either striking, quitting, or joining the crooks. (In the majority, that is.) Even many good government agency men (thus far) will go over to Mafia and Syndicate "take"...because in near time coming up they can be bought. THE MILITARY This huge, all-powerful complex which has so dominated the American scene... will get its come-uppance this year. As the government breaks down...and as business breaks down...the "glue" holding the military together (money to pay its salaries) will vanish...and the military will fall apart, in the main. Our Navy, Army and Marine forces will shrink...just as those of France and England shrunk when those countries went bust, finally. What will be left...will be a skeleton force...barely able to cope with any conventional war anywhere. It will be loaded down with nuclear weapons; yet unable to use them. And too broke to fight a conventional war. And the worst blow of all...the people of the U.S. will turn their backs on the U.S. military en masse. THE WEATHER Twin hurricanes will smash into Florida in the 1971 season. Or one into Florida and one into a nearby state...a near miss for the second. It will be nip and tuck which happens. Anyway, disaster for Florida. California will be stricken with fire, flood and quake as it has never been stricken before. And in the summer...white-hot heat will sear the midwest...and the west...as it has never been seared before. Terrible heat. Drought will lie all over the land. Water will be scarce; never mind if it's polluted anyway. What's left, will be scarce...and the selling of water will become GREAT BIG BUSINESS. And with the heat and scarcity of water...will come the wiping out of livestock on a wholesale basis in the midwest and west, as a natural result. Also in spring and summer...rodents and insects will gang up over the country...causing chaos and havoc among the farms, and the country as a whole. === Page 12 of 15 PERSONALITIES Since Larry Maddry and others so yearn...for predictions re famous personalities...then of course I must provide same. I wouldn't want to be considered "different" from the other commercial psychics I keep company with (I'm not commercial, or didn't you know that). Jackie Kennedy Onassis...will probably be found with her throat cut...or dead from "too many sleeping pills" this year. Anyway, she'll be swept out of the way by the types she's been keeping company with...who find her too expensive to keep on; too little fun and games coming from her; and to make room for others with more sweet honey in the comb. Or she may be put away as a mental case, surprisingly as that may sound. Anyway...kaput Jackie. Richard Burton will reach far down into the manhood Liz Taylor has long stomped on...and beat the hell out of la Taylor and leave her...perhaps before she ruins him utterly and completely and finally. And after Burton, she will not be able to find another mate, because she will be in too bad a shape, physically. Burton will be the last she'll have. I believe Frank Sinatra will pass away this year. Dean Martin will have to have major surgery...and will barely live, but he's tough. Chest difficulty. However, make it he will. Bing Crosby...will pass away this year. Bob Hope...will have to have major surgery; and give up any future road shows or world travels for good. But he'll live. Billy Graham...will be hospitalized and probably have to have surgery. He will give up all of his huge road-show and hoop-la...and get back to being the good man he used to be, quite a long while back...making occasional appearances and writing books of an inspirational nature. But he has a bad heart...and it could sign off anytime. There. I hope I've covered enough famous personalities up there to satisfy those who demand such trifles. THE WORLD It will be Russia's big year. The bear has been deploying chess pieces all over the globe...many moves ahead of the U.S. in this particular chess game...and 1971 will see Russia putting the U.S. into one checkmate after another. Keeping the U.S. in check. And beads of desperate sweat will spring out on the forehead of the U.S., as it sees how Russia has outmaneuvered the U.S. practically everywhere. Cuba will become internationally significant this year, as the U.S. has to admit to its people that Russia has loaded Cuba with weapons of terrible destruction...and we can't really do a dam thing about it. Unless we want to have some of our major cities wiped out in trying to defang Cuba. China will become at last a major military power of the world...and link up with Russia, no matter what the "experts" say now that Russia and China will fight. No they won't...not until they've mutually settled our hash, the U.S. And this year they'll really go into high gear in doing just that. As the U.S. breaks down, economically and politically, this year...the bear and the dragon will bring out its muscle against us...aces they have in the hole that our people are not even aware of. And this country will be faced with real, honest, live or die choices. The African negros, urged on and helped by Russia, will turn on and destroy whites living there. In the Caribbean area... (continued) === Page 13 of 15 the natives of Haiti, Jamaica, etc., will subtly slip poisons into the food and drink of Americans and British...and otherwise chastise the tourists there...until the area becomes their own once more. They are doing this now...but each visiting American that drops dead is labeled a "heart attack". Bad for business, you know. However, this will escalate until it gets out into the open...and Americans and British will get the hell out of those islands, and leave it to the natives who had it in the first place. As you might guess, this will all become well-organized in order to make it work; and it will work. Even the Syndicate and the Mafia will have to throw up their hands and get out, real estate deals and gambling notwithstanding. Mexico...which has had two faces for so long...one friendly to the U.S., yet more than friendly to the Communists...will swing over to strong communism this year. Openly. Canada will become openly hostile toward the U.S. this year, and cut off the flood of Americans going up there. Trouble over pollution of water in Lake Erie and thereabouts...will cause Canada to have second thoughts about contact with the U.S. in any way, shape or form. Canada will, in effect, draw together an iron curtain of its own, for its own protection. Against the U.S. South American countries will really turn on America this year. As our money becomes less and less...South America will get tougher and tougher with Americans and American companies. I should say, Latin America, excuse me. But this also includes South America. Latin America will swallow the holdings of many big major American businesses this year, on this or that pretext. All in all, it should be some year, 1971. Some of this might extend into 1972, because time is a fooler, as I stated in Brad Steiger's book. But all this will take place in 1971-72, as sure as my name is Ted Owens (PK Man) Bx. 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. I'll give you a riddle... with the powers I have, and can use at a moment's notice... I could stop any* of the aforesaid rough things from happening... even change them according to my wishes. Riddle: Why don't I, then? It would be most interesting...to get your guesses on this point. *with exception of 'personalities' section. === Page 14 of 15 (continued Jan. 19, 1971) SPECIAL...As you know, Sunday was the last chance I had to beat the Cowboys and keep them from becoming World's Pro Football Champions. Remember... before the season started I notified the Cowboys, Jets, Chiefs, Dolphins and Eagles...that I'd stop them with psi-power attacks. Well, the game was a typical weird, freaky game as all PK'd games are. The Colts actually didn't have a chance of winning...the Si's won it for the Colts...by causing two touchdowns for the Colts, created by freaky tipped balls both times. Also the Si's stopped the Cowboys on the one yard line, of the Colts. The first half, was rough. But in the second half the psi-power really went to work. When I got the Colts up even with the Cowboys, and only a teensy bit of time left...I called on the Si's for extra help. They responded by causing a couple of breaks that got the ball down for a close Colt kick. THEN THE SI'S ACTUALLY HELPED CARRY THE BALL OVER THE GOALPOSTS. Don't believe that? Then you didn't read the account by the holder and the kicker. They both said that when the ball was kicked it started to fall short...then buoyed up again and sailed over. So the Si's really won the game for the Colts. Weird, but true. The local paper called the game "bizarre". It sure was. So anyway...I got the last little Indian, which gives me a perfect score for this year's pro football PK season. NEVADA...what's been going on with my PK project there? Well, Sonny Liston was found dead...with dope in his house. This of course is more bad publicity for Vegas...also directs attention nationally to the ugly presence of dope in Vegas. Something the hoods sure do not want called attention to. Also...just recently it was ten degrees in Nevada. Believe it or not. The cold has been killing business, I am told by a contact there. To add to that...Nevada had storm winds recently of 96 miles per hour! NOTE: Be SURE and get a copy of March 1971 Saga magazine, if I can't get you one. There's a great article in it about my work, by Otto Binder. (I've seen an advance copy.) MAKE A NOTE: I predict that someone will try to kill me, or have me killed, in 1971-72. If they are successful...somebody build a church over my grave on top of a mountain...and I swear to you that in that church the sick will get healed; unhappy people will be given a new life, and peace of mind. Because I'll be radiating psi-force from the grave. That's a fact. In January TRUE magazine there's a story about Dr. Fogel and the M's, or Mensa members. Dr. Fogel is the scientist who tested me and found my IQ to be in the Mensa range. It's a great organization...and tells you how to go about joining up. FINALLY: I'm now PK'ing a continent. Africa. Directing PK to sweep out all whites and give the continent back to the natives and the animals. Just saw "Elephant Country" on TV...the animals in Africa have little water or food, and are being all killed off. From now on an irresistable force will be in motion...to get all whites out of Africa, and keep them out for good. The African continent...is to grow again, become wild again, with the good life for the natives and the animals. And stay that way. Keep your eye on Africa, and you'll get a lesson in how psi-force works. Ted. === Page 15 of 15 Lawrence Maddry TED OWENS, the 50-year-old Norfolkian who talks to space people and predicts the future, has evened the score with me. We've been acquaintances for some time. The problem is that Owens is becoming famous. Recently Saga magazine ran a series about his incredible feats--predicting President Kennedy's assassination, putting the whammy on football teams, talking to space creatures in flying saucers--which mentioned one of my interviews with Owens. Since then, his followers have been sending me letters (one fellow said he'd been sending messages to Owens mentally and wasn't getting through). I forward the letters to our local czar of the bizarre. # A Crystal Ball Bowls A Strike This was okay. What got my dander up was the phone call I got at 4 in the morning from a Boston radio broadcaster whose name and station escape me. Remember, I was awakened at 4 in the morning and was standing by the phone in my pajamas. The conversation went about like this: Voice on phone: Hello there. Is this Lawrence Maddry, the columnist on the Virginia Beach Virginian-Pilot? Me: I guess so. Voice: Well, this is Bob Johnson on The Night-hawk Show from WRBJ in Boston. We've been reading in Saga magazine about the incredible Ted Owens. We're on the air now and my listeners would like for me to phone Owens. Can you give me his number? (Beeping noises on phone.) Me: I don't know his number. It isn't listed. Voice: Well, could you tell us what he's doing now? Me: I hope he's asleep. Look here, I don't know how you people do things up there in Boston, but in the South we don't phone people at 4 in the morning. Voice: Right you are. I'll have to agree with you there, Mr. Madrix. I was wondering if you could tell my listeners something about the fantastic Ted Owens. THERE FOLLOWED a nasty little exchange which must have been heard by thousands of late night radio listeners in Boston. I recall hanging up in the middle of the conversation. Since then I have made a conscious effort to steer clear of Owens without antagonizing him. At my age, it's too late to acquire an enemy who claims the ability to crash a Boeing 747 merely by thinking about it. Owens evened the score Wednesday morning when, in opening the mail, I found his gift, a copy of "What The Seers Predict for 1971" by Brad Steiger and Warren Smith. The paperback book, published by Lancer in September, has a photograph of a green eyeball on the cover and purports to contain the predictions by "America's greatest psychics" for what may be the most fateful years of our lives.  Owens Lo and behold, Ted Owens is among the contributors. For newspaper purposes, we found Owens' generalized predictions less impressive than some of the others. For instance, he notes that "our military will become confused." We refuse to believe that. Is nothing sacred? That's what talking to flying saucers will do for a fellow. Owens did have the Christian charity to include his mailing address in his article, and we pass it along: Box 3134 CHS, Norfolk, Va. 23514. ONE OF THE MOST interesting prognosticators in the book is Dr. Ernesto A. Montgomery of Los Angeles, credited with amazing feats of extrasensory perception. These are among Dr. Montgomery's predictions for 1971: Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton will separate in November and reconcile shortly thereafter . . . Tiny Tim and his wife Miss Vicky will be divorced. Miss Vicky will sue for alimony . . . Princess Grace of Monaco and Prince Ranier will separate. She will remain an occupant of the palace but will not share a bedroom with the prince. Now, there a psychic who knows what he's talking about. The military will become confused--indeed. Something really should be done with that Owens fellow. He's getting out of hand.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 6** January 2, 1971 TO ALL CONTACTS You haven't heard from me for some time...not because I've been idle with psi work...but because I've been too broke to buy stamps, paper, envelopes and time...to write all 35 of you. This year...am going to ask you to send me $10 each to cover the year's expenses-of getting my material (magazines, books, letters, etc.) out to you. It's what it will take. (Scientists are excluded from this). Enclosed is a notarized affidavit from Mr. Conklin in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Si's and I decided to exert psi force on the state of Nevada in November '70. Since Mr. Conklin is my only contact in that state...I notified him, as the self-explanatory affidavit explains. to the catastrophes that have hit Nevada and Las Vegas SINCE MY LETTER OF NOTIFICATION TO THAT INTENT, as follows: 12/9/70..."DUST CLOUD FOLLOWED 'NORMAL'N-BLAST"...Mercury, Nevada(AP)..."Baneberry, the code name for the Atomic Energy Commission's 230th announced underground nuclear test here since 1963, went off normally and created a spherical cavern 900 feet below the desert sand. WHAT FOLLOWED FIVE MINUTES LATER FRIDAY WASN'T NORMAL. The AEC said pressure from the blast, equivalent to detonation of about 20,000 tons of TNT, SPEWED RADIOACTIVE DUST FROM THE SHAFT IN WHICH THE NUCLEAR DEVICE HAD BEEN PLACED. A DIRTY BROWN COLUMN OF DUST AROSE AND WITHIN MINUTES REACHED 8,000 FEET. WITHIN HOURS IT SPREAD OVER 1,000 SQUARE MILES." Later a newsclip said cows' milk in Nevada had been found to be radioactive. Some time ago I wrote the government, from the Si's...and WARNED the government that the Si's would not stand for any more nuclear test explosions. This horrible accident, above, and the new Si (psi force) attack on Nevada...plus the killing of Atomic Energy Commissioner Thompson, America's top man in nuclear testing...is the Si answer to the government's ignoring of my letter to them. Also enclosed is an article about me and my work by Larry Madry, columnist for the Virginian-Pilot in Norfolk, Virginia. Although it is written in tongue-in-cheek style, Madry knows what I can do. I have given him one heck of a demonstration this past summer (thought it was primarily for Otto Binder). Madry was here on the spot and sweated out the lightning attacks, etc.) It is humorous that he and his family out on the water with his boat named "Lightning" got caught up in one of my furious storms. Ha ha ha! Now let's talk about pro football, and the use of my mind to control five certain teams so that they could not win the World's Pro Championship this year. By this writing I have eliminated four out of the five, just having held down the Miami Dolphins so that they could be beaten (they're an exceptionally tough, persistent team to beat with psi power...but I've done it). I told Larry Madry before the season began that I would knock out these teams, and told him specifically that I would cause key injuries to the Jets to take them apart...and when they got into their season this year their entire backfield, Namath, Snell, etc., got wiped out! With injuries. Tomorrow I must attack the Dallas Cowboys with my mind and do my best to beat them. I held them to only 5 points last week...but their opponents, the Lions, didn't score one touchdown...and lost. Remember, my psi force can't pick up the ball and make touchdowns for the opponents. Tomorrow the 49'rs have to do their share of the work...and if they do, the psi power of my mind will added will crush the Cowboys. If not, I'll get 'em the following week for sure. === **Page: 2 of 6** (Note: P. 1 was written Saturday. This is now Monday. The Cowboys won yesterday. My PK worked fine...but the 49r QB, Brodie...gave the game away...threw the ball to a Cowboy on his, 49r, 17 yard line and of course the Cowboys went on in. It seemed deliberate; not an accident. He's the best passer in pro football, and I've played football myself, pads and all (had a player killed close to me during a game); anyway Brodie flung this pass straight to the Cowboy, only about 6-8 yards away. The PK cannot help a team that beats itself. It was this gift of 7 points to the Cowboys that was the winning edge. You can't give 7 points to the other team in a championship playoff and hope to win. Now I have only one more chance to stop the Cowboys; in the Superbowl.) You remember my writing to you...about Lance Rentzel, star on the Cowboys, exposing his genitals to a minor and getting put out of action by the law. Okay. December 15 another star on my "fatal five" list was put out of action in a weird way. Nate Ramsey, of the Eagles, was on the street when a man walked up to him, pulled out a pistol, said "I'm going to kill you" and shot him right in the chest. No warning. Ramsey's wife said it was "unreal". She couldn't believe it. I'm happy to say Ramsey lived, and is getting well now. But these two cases...are cases in point of how PK stalks and attacks in different ways...not necessarily always on the football field. Several years ago when I was PK'ing the Eagles hot and heavy in Philly, an Eagles player stood up in the Eagle dressing room just after a game...and caught his head on a hook on the wall...and ripped his head wide open. They had to take many many stitches in it. A news reporter printed "the Eagles aren't even safe in their own dressing room". And the reporter was right. Leonard Tose of the Eagles, Dec. 18, '70, told reporters: "If you know a guy who is capable of winning 10 games here, I'd hire him". Now, he was referring to a coach. BUT I AM CAPABLE OF WINNING 10 GAMES A YEAR FOR THE EAGLES. So...why doesn't he hire me, and keep the coach he has? It's the PK that's beating the Eagles, not the coach. Okay. Nuff about that. Add confirm to my Nevada PK Project...January 3, 1971, newsclip re Nevada "...tied a record low temperature for Jan. 3 with 41 below zero early Sunday morning.." (Note my mention of radical weather in my Nevada PK "prediction".) I want to get something on record here. For years I've been studying a phenomenon, and have acquired enough material on it, to substantiate my theory. A PERSON'S NAME...CAN DETERMINE, MAKE, SHAPE THE LIFE OF THAT PERSON! Let me explain. Dick BUTKUS, of the Chicago Bears team, is famous for hitting and butting people! Charlie WINNER, a pro football coach, was hired to coach a pro team because he is a winner! WARWICK HARDMAN is another pro football player who delights in slamming people just like Butkus does. He's in a war of sorts constantly. He's a 'hard man'. Bart STARR became a star...pro football player. Tops. And so on. Just today in a newsclip I noted that the government prosecutor against a man who allegedly committed murder in Saigon while a soldier...is named Capt. John FAIRLEY. His job is to see that justice is done... I could go on and on. But this fact is concrete, and he'll grow up to either BE an actual coward, or will fight that name subconsciously all his life and go to the other extreme to be a hero in the armed forces or such. === **Page: 3 of 6** I want to go a little further with my findings. I've discovered that criminal after criminal...killers, kidnappers, etc, after they've been caught...are found to have messages tatooed on them. "BORN TO LOSE", or a picture of a dagger with blood dripping, things like that. I am convinced that the body of the person so tatooed...acts on these tatooed messages (since all body cells have intelligence), thinking that that person wanted such a future...AND BROUGHT IT TO PASS FOR THAT PERSON! Here's another case for my "name theory", Dec. 27, '70, police in Honolulu caught three men for killing a young girl. One of the killers is named...JESSE JAMES Bates! See what I mean? On the same page of the newspaper is another story, in Baltimore, Maryland...a man killed another man and hacked up the body into pieces. The killer's name? William C. HACKER! Okay. That covers that. But someday when the brilliant scientists discover that people actually act out in their lives...their own names...remember that PK Man told you first. Whether you know it or not...I informed the government some years ago that the SI's would reflect MY OWN financial condition and well-being...onto the entire United States! If I am poor, then the SI's will cause the U.S. to be ten times as poor as I am. Please note the condition of the country at this time. And...I am very very poor. Barely making it day by day. Funny...that nobody will believe the SI's. Also a few years ago the SI's told me to tell the government..."The SI's say how would you (the govt.) like to lose NASA?" Now I quote from an article in the paper by Howard Benedict a few days ago: "Cape Kennedy, Fla.(AP) "After years of success, the United States space program turned sour in 1970...near disaster struck the Apollo 13 mission in April...because of the accident, Apollo 14 was delayed until 1971...the trouble also caused an already-stingy Congress to cut deeper into the budget of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. As a result, two of the six remaining Apollo moon flights were canceled...many scientists were unhappy...NASA launched only 12 rockets in 1970...three of the 12 shots failed, including the loss in November of a $98.5 million astronomical observatory (OGO), the most expensive unmanned satellite ever built. Obviously unhappy with the lack of support from Congress, NASA administrator Thomas O. Paine (note that name. Ted.) resigned in September. President Nixon has been unable to find a successor. "We are at the peril point," Paine said of space funding and the loss of competent personnel. Thousands of NASA and contractor workers were laid off as space employment dropped to 145,000 from a peak of 420,000 in 1966." When oh when, I wonder...will the U.S. Govt. pay attention to what I tell it? How many billions must it lose...how much grief must it endure...until it discovers that giving PK Man the little that he needs to carry out SI orders...would have saved them, the govt., all those billions and all that grief? -- At this point let me interject here: The SI's are happy that their story is now slowly coming to public notice...Saga magazine, perhaps a book soon, and National Enquirer is getting ready to do a piece...so neither I nor the SI's...will hit the oncoming Apollo shot with lightning or otherwise cripple the shot (sweating out getting the astronauts back as before). No. This shot is "on the SI's" and they'll actually help in every way possible. Anything goes wrong...will be man-made; not SI or PK Man made. They have to help...because although the grid mechanism that was put up over Cape K years ago, a PK psi mechanism, was dismantled...still the PK effects linger on. And the SI's have to help the shot clear these effects. === **Page: 4 of 6** (I hope that you appreciate all this work in this letter. It will take a full day to type it to 35 people; make all the copies, etc. What I could do with a secretary and a Xerox!) -- Today in the paper...was an article that now the government is concerned with toilets that flush...and waste yeah billions of gallons of precious water, now that water is getting scarce. 15 years ago I told my then wife, Pat Owens (now Pat Shannon) that this would come to pass...scarcity of water in time ahead...and I worked out a tiny incinerator set inside a commode...with a tightly-shutting door when a lever is pressed...so that the contents of the commode would incinerate the human waste, thus negating the need for the sewers, water, etc. But I didn't know how to go about patenting it and all the rest, so I dropped the project. -- Here is another thing I want on the record: an answer to the mysterious crib deaths that kill so many babies each year. What causes it...are chemicals in the detergents used to launder the sheets on the baby's crib...the baby inhales the toxic chemicals...and since the baby hasn't yet matured enough to overcome the effects of the fumes...it sets up a toxic reaction in the baby which acts like pneumonia and kills it. Probably mostly when it is lying face down...gets it the quickest. I'd like to bet you...that one of these days scientists will confirm that I'm correct! -- Here's another interesting thing; lately people I've been sending discs to report that UFOs have been seen over their city! Olga Marchant in San Diego sent me newsclips to that effect...AND STRANGE GREEN HUMANOID CREATURES WERE SEEN ON THE STREETS THERE...by police, even! Also Hank Paski just sent me a newsclip that five UFOs were seen over Anchorage, where he lives, by three city policemen, as well as many other people who reported them. They could not have been helicopters; this was checked out. The Air Force reported it was not on radar. The Weather Bureau said conditions were too weak to produce such phenomena. And the newsclip ended with "So until somebody can come up with a good reason, Anchorage might as well keep checking out the skies at about the 2,000-foot level, just in case". (This was from the Anchorage Daily News, Dec. 14, 1970). Both Hank and Olga wear my SI disc around their necks. And yet still another. Phyllis Lynch, Box 538, GPO Bronx, 10451, NY, NY, writes me that she received my disc and put it on, then: "When I first wore the necklace, my little ones and I were on the subway on our way to the uptown Bronx. As I got off the 219th St. Station, I was attracted to a man and a little retarded girl. I was watching her reactions as he was talking to her. As we were walking up 219th St. this man and little girl were looking up towards the sky. Then my children and I looked up. There up there I saw something like three stars and a cloud-like halo (remember the UFO halo seen over Norfolk this past summer? Ted.) around this vehicle hovering over the area. There was no sound because I said to him, gee, I hear no sound up there. He said no you don't. Then after a few minutes it left the scene. Directly after that an airplane appeared and left. I take it that it might have been a flying saucer. It dawned on me then maybe that is what it was." And she was wearing my disc, same as Olga and Hank! -- Now, before closing...I have something most important to put on record. I awoke about a month ago...and was aware that, as had happened before, the SI's had been teaching me, talking to me, in my sleep. And it was fresh in my mind! === **Page: 5 of 6** (Incidentally, before I forget...if anyone wants to check with Pat Shannon re my prediction 15 years ago (approx.) that water would become precious and scarce...and there would be a need for a commode-incinerator...she lives at 17405 112th NE, Kirkland, Washington. She's a pleasant person, and am sure she will remember and confirm this.) Back to what the SI's told me in my sleep. We are just at this time making startling discoveries re psi force. As a scientist recently stated, psi force could be the fifth greatest power in the universe! Russia is far ahead of us. I'm the only human in America with practical experience in using it, and researching it, in action conditions. No doubt about that. I'm not talking about countless dice experiments, now. I'm talking about hitting rockets that are going up with PK mechanisms to make them fall down. I've done that successfully. Even hit one with lightning; documented. I'm talking about guiding hurricanes successfully; even making triple simultaneous hurricanes; I've done that and documented it. No one in the world can even begin to approach what I know about psi force and its usage in actual application. Not even in Russia. All right. But...Moses brought about such phenomena. So did Ezekiel. Both claimed "the Lord" made it happen, and they were human! So...it has happened before. And in Egypt...curses were put on tombs...that hundreds or thousands of years later killed those who violated the tombs in odd, weird ways. (Same PK as that I can use...I know it and understand it as if I'd been there at that time). Okay. I wrote the U.S. Govt. a few years ago and WARNED it that if the Egyptian pyramids were flooded (as was the plan) that ancient PK in those pyramids would reach out and destroy those that caused it. Please note...the deadly situation in that area today! Couple of years ago I wrote the big museum in New York, where that Miami burglar broke in so daringly...that if that museum had in fact pieces taken from Egyptian tombs that had been PK'd long long ago...that the PK would react on the area around those pieces! Since I wrote, note what has happened to New York! So many bad things I won't even go into it. If you don't know, you haven't been reading the papers. I.e., PK'd objects (and if they were in those tombs long ago, then removed, they are saturated with destruct-PK) can be taken to far away places...causing chaos and havoc at those far away places! In the other countries where these pieces are taken, the PK'd articles do their deadly work...causing dissension, murder, violence, war...perhaps to the ultimate point of exterminating everyone in that country, because the PK curse is not limited to time or space or mass! Another point: Ages ago...humans might have used psi force (PK mechs) in our own geographical location (U.S.)! Now, PK never dies! That is, the destruct form of psi phenomena simply keeps on growing with time! Suppose one of our cities was the site of an ancient, psi-force war. Today...that city would be dogged by crime, murder, killing, deadly accidents, etc. Even a spot on some highway...long long ago that was a psi-force target...today that spot would be weirdly marked by one auto accident after another. (I've read of spots just like that). Furthermore, a human being could unwittingly walk through an ancient PK'd area, still existing today only then...and that human would then be a deadly accident waiting to happen somewhere soon. Do you know what I mean? If not, write to me and I'll try to clarify it. === **Page: 6 of 6** Psi force...is just like an x-ray superimposed over an area. Invisible, it can't be noted by any human senses. It is entirely probable that animals can sense it being there. The malignant, deadly psi force...even left from ages past...still alive and still growing in power. Oh, before it skips my mind...have something humorous to tell you. I recently wrote to a professor in a western university...and offered to let the university hire me as a teacher in psychology and parapsychology. (I can flat guarantee you...that I have a thousand times to offer, what the usual prof in psychology and parapsychology has to offer. Because my education and practical experimentation in these fields...has begun where all the others have left off.) The professor wrote back a letter patiently pointing out that I have no academic title or background for teaching...thus it could not be. But, he added...perhaps I could write about it. I nearly fell off my chair laughing. Think of it! The priceless knowledge which I alone have, with regard to psi phenomena...and wanted to pass on to others in the U.S. magazines, tests, facts, etc. My ability as probably the world's best in the field of hypnotism...with the secrets the Si's have given me...to pass on in the classroom to bright pupils. My terrific ability with ESP...PK and precog. and all the rest...which I could pass on to pupils, the know-how and the practical usage. REJECTED. Oh, if I'm lucky I can write it down sometime...that is, when I'm not working yea-hours a day typing on papers to make a buck, with no secretary, no time...to do so. And give it as a gift to humanity. Ha ha. You know something...I'LL JUST KEEP IT ALL TO MYSELF, and that will serve the rest of humanity right! Several years ago I wrote to NASA and warned them...that Russia might be able to attack NASA space flights with psi force, just as I could...and that I would be glad to go down to NASA and give them an educational lecture on just what psi force can do. THEY DIDN'T EVEN ANSWER! Now, of course, it has just come out in that recent Argosy article...what Russia can do with psi force. And what has happened to NASA since I wrote to them...they fully deserve! Back to what the Si's told me re psi force, overnight. The "Bermuda Triangle" where planes and ships have vanished...was, long ago, the geographical location of a powerful psi force attack...the most powerful in the earth's history. Since the power was never dissipated...it keeps on attacking ships, planes and people! The Si's explained that an OBJECT or a PLACE can be PK'd with psi force... deliberately to destroy civilization there hundreds or thousands of years later...since the PK grows and expands in time, space and mass, as time passes. And they say this WAS done long ago, by someone or some thing, that knew what I know today! They said THAT I COULD DO THIS, BRING THIS ABOUT MYSELF. (But I know the Si's...they wouldn't consider me a fit instrument of theirs, if I did such a thing. And of course I won't.) Also want to mention before closing...that consistently, TV sports events, one after another that I'm watching...TV technical difficulties lose the picture, lose the sound. It's either my Si-powered-brain doing it, or the "grid" I placed over Norfolk last summer doing it (although I've since tried to take the grid down. I know very little about removing PK, actually.) I PREDICT...THAT AMERICA IS IN FOR A TERRIBLE BLOW...within 30 days!

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 2** January 3, 1971 TO ALL CONTACTS It seems that suddenly I'm building up many PK projects...since a "quiet period" where I had no PK projects to speak of. I have the "Nevada PK Project", the "Pratt PK Project", the "Pro Football PK Project" and the NASA PK Project". Today am adding still another. Last night my boy, age 8, and me watched a TV show which showed how the animals are being killed off around the world...to where there are a very few left. We watched a mother polar bear romping happily with her two cubs...until a helicopter landed, men jumped out, and pumped bullet after bullet into the mother bear...which fell, helpless, able only to call out to her two little ones which huddled nearby in fear. We watched while a big brave cowboy riding herd on a bunch of cattle unlimbered his rifle and shot a tiny prairie dog, which fell backward...tried in vain to "talk" with its tiny howls...then was blown into the air with a second shot. At this point my little boy was screaming in horror...tears streaming down his face...begging me not to let any more be killed. Next scene was big brave hunters surrounding some seals, which were frolicking with their young. Obviously the seals didn't know about what kind of living thing the humans were, nearby. The humans beat their brains out with clubs...mama seal, daddy, seal, then baby seals. At this point my boy was hysterical. He's queer. He loves tiny animals...or any animals, for that matter. We watched natives slaughter giraffes; we watched humans slaughter kangaroos, with the baby still in it's pouch; and so on and on. It was the absolute worst program I've ever watched. And yet...since it was truth, told through the camera's eyes...it set fire to a fury inside me unmatched by anything ever in my life. There is one thing...I wish to interject here...which I have not told you. Psi-power (PK mechanisms), besides not being limited by time, distance or mass...ARE OMNISCIENT AND OMNIPRESENT. I'll wait until you look those up, if you don't know what they mean. Let me spell it out. When I "PK" Joe Doakes...that means I send powers and mechanisms which cannot be seen, smelled, tasted, felt, or heard...to make a disaster area out of Joe Doakes. And the outcome is absolutely inevitable. It's just a matter of when. The "PK" has unlimited intelligence to fulfill its mission...and in case Joe Doakes changes his geographical location...the PK is everywhere at once. Okay. So here is what I am doing. I AM SENDING FORTH, ISSUING, PK MECHANISMS (PSI FORCE) TO ATTACK HUNTERS ALL OVER THE WORLD...in effect, I am arming every animal in this world which might be hunted, no matter how small, or how big, with a weapon far deadlier than the hunter's gun. Let me spell it out. From now on, whenever a big brave cowboy takes out his rifle and blows out the brains of a small, innocent prairie dog...immediately that cowboy is an accident waiting to happen...to be paid off in the same coin as he killed the prairie dog! If a hunter kills a little seal...same thing. If a business executive kills a bear, or a wolf, or anything at all...same thing. Just a matter of time until he gets the same thing from the PK force stalking him! He'll just get it...in a different place...under different conditions. In short...from now on...any hunter that kills any animal, creature or bird...which he doesn't have to eat to live...will be himself killed, destroyed, by a PK force which will follow him, stalk him, until it brings it about! I'm not interested in people who have to make their living by selling skins. Or any other parts of animals. If they kill, they will be killed. The PK === **Page: 2 of 2** 2 will take care of these hunters, these people, automatically. Let me make this clear: if hunters want target practice...let them shoot at tin cans or paper targets. THEY HAD BETTER NOT SHOOT AT ANIMALS OR BIRDS UNLESS THEY HAVE TO HAVE THE GAME TO EAT TO LIVE! This is the absolute rule: only persons who have to have food, game, to eat to live...will be safe from this omnipresent, omniscient psi-power guard over the animals. Any other persons...will be ruthlessly destroyed, after they ruthlessly destroy any animal or bird unnecessarily. Now...I have already issued this PK attack...but one thing remains to be done which is quite important. WARN PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD THAT THIS IS IN EFFECT. To do this...I have only one way. Otto Binder is doing some articles on my work in Saga Magazine. I am herewith begging Otto to include this intelligence, this information, in one of the forthcoming articles...so that hunters will be warned. I don't care if hunters laugh at what I say...it's like laughing while shooting Indians at Custer's last stand. If Otto can get this in to Saga...it will wave a lot of people's lives. Because the PK attack is already out, unleashed...and each and every animal in the world is now armed and ready...even though it doesn't know it. As soon as that animal is killed by a hunter, no matter where in the world it is...if it is unnecessary...the PK will then attack and destroy the human hunter. Just as a matter of human interest...my little boy begged me last night to do just this...it was HIS idea. He said, "Daddy, please use your PK to keep all the little animals from being killed!" With tears in his eyes. And I agreed with him; wholeheartedly and completely. And so be it. -- Before I forget...I have a new phone number...855-2843. Better mark that down. One last thought: watched the Senior Bowl today. They made a big mistake. Put Weeb Ewbank, coach of the Jets, in charge of a team. Of course his team lost...because he's saturated with "attack PK". That's it for now. You can look...in time ahead...for a spate of deadly "accidents" involving hunters...unless Otto Binder can get the word out in time, on a national deavel.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 5** January 14, 1971 TO ALL CONTACTS I think I'm off my rocker...for wasting my precious time, and going to the necessary expense...to send all 35 of you this particular letter. But am going to do it anyway. As you know, Brad Steiger gave me a chapter in his recent book, "What The Seers Predict for 1971"...I knew what he wanted...but I chose instead to lay out the long-range future of the U.S. as I saw it, precognitively. In this letter I will get back to the herd...and give you my precog impressions of this specific year, 1971, coming up from this date. GOVERNMENT There's an old saying in playing poker in the Navy..."down and dirty" for the last card in a five-card stud game. Or was it seven. Anyway...this year is IT for the U.S. Government. As everything collapses around it, the govt. will be unable to cope. And as it becomes unable to cope, the people will lose all confidence in it...become infuriated with it...and reject it. To be more specific...as everything goes broke everywhere (due to years of U.S. flushing yeah billions of dollars down the give-away drain) the govt. will not be able to stop the runaway car going down the hill without brakes...and it will crash at the bottom. Kaputt government. This year the U.S. economy will FAIL (Nixon's prognosticating notwithstanding) and yeah businesses will go broke. Railroads will throw up their hands; banks fail; the stock market will hit bottom and for all practical purposes go out of business because (1) people won't have money to buy stocks and (2) even if they did they won't trust stocks anymore after this year. - The govt. will shuck Admirals, Generals, Colonels, etc., off the cob galore. Tough year for the brass. The govt. won't be able to afford keeping them on the payroll after this year. - Younger members of the govt. (Congressmen, Senators, etc.) are going to drive the older members (in the majority) nuts this year...going for changes in government setup. (Long overdue; and, like a tonsillectomy for an adult...it should have been done when the adult was a young child. Now...the changes are going to be painful...if there's time before utter destruction of our government setup.) And of course the old men in govt. will fight back, no holds barred...to stop progress. An old story. - President Nixon may not be able to survive this coming year, strange as that may seem now. He hasn't an inkling how fast everything will escalate to knock Humpty Dumpty off the wall. And Humpty Dumpty he will be. Unfortunately. He hasn't paid attention. - Making matters worse, REVOLUTION in the U.S. will rear its deadly head this year as it has never done in our history...and strike in a deadly manner with cobra venom in its fangs. This will drive the govt. to even more distraction, considering all its other shattering problems which it must face...and can't possibly solve. - Some top government men will die. I believe six will. Men of top status. This from militant action and revolutionary force. Agnew will probably be one, for starters. Senators and Congressmen had better hire bodyguards, as of right now. === **Page: 2 of 5** 2 BUSINESS Generally speaking...business will completely fall apart and go bust in 1971. Small businesses will go into bankruptcy everywhere. Only huge corporations may be able to hold 'on'...yet many of them will sink, too. Banks will fail here, there and everywhere. The stock market will fail. People will "run" on the stock market, eager to get out what they can and put it in a shoe box in their backyard. Unemployment will shoot up, skyrocket, in 1971...as prices shoot up and skyrocket, yet salaries of workers remain much the same. And the workers will rebel, and strike, and because they have all the money they want...their problem is how to get rid of it legally. This will be their BIG chance. As small businesses fail, the crooks will snap them up. As corporations fail, the crooks will take them over. As people desperately cash in on their real estate holdings everywhere...the crooks will gladly buy it everywhere. What will the police be doing all this time? Either striking, quitting, or joining the crooks. (In the majority, that is.) Even many good government agency men (thus far) will go over to Mafia and Syndicate "take"...because in near time coming up they can be bought. THE MILITARY This huge, all-powerful complex which has so dominated the American scene... will get its come-uppance this year. As the government breaks down...and as business breaks down...the "glue" holding the military together (money to pay its salaries) will vanish...and the military will fall apart, in the main. Our Navy, Army and Marine forces will shrink...just as those of France and England shrunk when those countries went bust, finally. What will be left...will be a skeleton force...barely able to cope with any conventional war anywhere. It will be loaded with nuclear weapons; yet unable to use them. And too broke to fight a conventional war. And the worst blow of all...the people of the U.S. will turn their backs on the U.S. military en masse. THE WEATHER Twin hurricanes will smash into Florida in the 1971 season. Or one into Florida and one into a nearby state...a near miss for the second. It will be nip and tuck which happens. Anyway, disaster for Florida. California will be stricken with fire, flood and quake as it has never been stricken before. And in the summer...white-hot heat will sear the midwest...and the west...as it has never been seared before. Terrible heat. Drought will lie all over the land. Water will be scarce; never mind if it's polluted anyway. What's left, will be scarce...and the selling of water will become GREAT BIG BUSINESS. And with the heat and scarcity of water...will come the wiping out of livestock on a wholesale basis in the midwest and west, as a natural result. Also in spring and summer...rodents and insects will gang up over the country...causing chaos and havoc among the farms, and the country as a whole. === **Page: 3 of 5** ## PERSONALITIES Since Larry Maddry and others so yearn...for predictions re famous personalities...then of course I must provide same. I wouldn't want to be considered "different" from the other commercial psychics I keep company with (I'm not commercial, or didn't you know that). Jackie Kennedy Onassis...will probably be found with her throat cut...or dead from "too many sleeping pills" this year. Anyway, she'll be swept out of the way by the types she's been keeping company with...who find her too expensive to keep on; too little fun and games coming from her; and to make room for others with more sweet honey in the comb. Or she may be put away as a mental case, surprisingly as that may sound. Anyway...kaput Jackie. Richard Burton will reach far down into the manhood Liz Taylor has long stomped on...and beat the hell out of la Taylor and leave her...perhaps before she ruins him utterly and completely and finally. And after Burton, she will not be able to find another mate, because she will be in too bad a shape, physically. Burton will be the last she'll have. I believe Frank Sinatra will pass away this year. Dean Martin will have to have major surgery...and will barely live, but he's tough. Chest difficulty. However, make it he will. Bing Crosby...will pass away this year. Bob Hope...will have to have major surgery; and give up any future road shows or world travels for good. But he'll live. Billy Graham...will be hospitalized and probably have to have surgery. He will give up all of his huge road-show and hoop-la...and get back to being the good man he used to be, quite a long while back...making occasional appearances and writing books of an inspirational nature. But he has a bad heart...and it could sign off anytime. There. I hope I've covered enough famous personalities up there to satisfy those who demand such trifles. ## THE WORLD It will be Russia's big year. The bear has been deploying chess pieces all over the globe...many moves ahead of the U.S. In this particular chess game...and 1971 will see Russia putting the U.S. into one checkmate after another. Keeping the U.S. in check. And beads of desperate sweat will spring out on the forehead of the U.S., as it sees how Russia has outmaneuvered the U.S. practically everywhere. Cuba will become internationally significant this year, as the U.S. has to admit to its people that Russia has loaded Cuba with weapons of terrible destruction...and we can't really do a damn thing about it. Unless we want to have some of our major cities wiped out in trying to defang Cuba. China will become at last a major military power of the world...and link up with Russia, no matter what the "experts" say now that Russia and China will fight. No they won't...not until they've mutually settled our hash, the U.S. And this year they'll really go into high gear in doing just that. As the U.S. breaks down, economically and politically, this year...the bear and the dragon will bring out its muscle against us...aces they have in the hole that our people are not even aware of. And this country will be faced with real, honest, live or die choices. The African negros, urged on and helped by Russia, will turn on and destroy whites living there. In the Caribbean area... (continued) === **Page: 4 of 5** the natives of Haiti, Jamaica, etc., will subtly slip poisons into the food and drink of Americans and British...and otherwise chastise the tourists there...until the area becomes their own once more. They are doing this now...but each visiting American that drops dead is labeled a "heart attack". Bad for business, you know. However, this will escalate until it gets out into the open...and Americans and British will get the hell out of those islands, and leave it to the natives who had it in the first place. As you might guess, this will all become well-organized in order to make it work; and it will work. Even the Syndicate and the Mafia will have to throw up their hands and get out, real estate deals and gambling notwithstanding. Mexico...which has had two faces for so long...one friendly to the U.S., yet more than friendly to the Communists...will swing over to strong communism this year. Openly. Canada will become openly hostile toward the U.S. this year, and cut off the flood of Americans going up there. Trouble over pollution of water in Lake Erie and thereabouts...will cause Canada to have second thoughts about contact with the U.S. in any way, shape or form. Canada will, in effect, draw together an iron curtain of its own, for its own protection. Against the U.S. South American countries will really turn on America this year. As our money becomes less and less...South America will get tougher and tougher with Americans and American companies. I should say, Latin America, excuse me. But this also includes South America. Latin America will swallow the holdings of many big major American businesses this year, on this or that pretext. All in all, it should be some year, 1971. Some of this might extend into 1972, because time is a fooler, as I stated in Brad Steiger's book. But all this will take place in 1971-72, as sure as my name is Ted Owens (PK Man) Bx. 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 P.S. I'll give you a riddle... With the powers I have, and can use at a moment's notice... I could stop any* of the aforesaid rough things from happening... even change them according to my wishes. Riddle: Why don't I, then? It would be most interesting...to get your guesses on this point. *with exception of 'personalities' section. === **Page: 5 of 5** (Continued Jan. 19, 1971) SPECIAL...As you know, Sunday was the last chance I had to beat the Cowboys and keep them from becoming World's Pro Football Champions. Remember...before the season started I notified the Cowboys, Jets, Chiefs, Dolphins and Eagles...that I'd stop them with psi-power attacks. Well, the game was a typical weird, freaky game as all PK'd games are. The Colts actually didn't have a chance of winning...the SI's won it for the Colts...by PK'ing the Cowboys, created by freaky tipped balls both times. Also the SI's stopped the Cowboys on the one yard line, of the Colts. The first half, was rough. But in the second half the psi-power really went to work. When I got the Colts up even with the Cowboys, and only a teensy bit of time left....I called on the SI's for extra help. They responded by causing a couple of breaks that got the ball down for a close Colt kick. THEN THE SI'S ACTUALLY HELPED CARRY THE BALL OVER THE GOALPOSTS. Don't believe that? Then you didn't read the account by the holder and the kicker. They both said that when the ball was kicked it started to fall short...then buoyed up again and sailed over. So the SI's really won the game for the Colts. Weird, but true. The local paper called the game "bizarre". It sure was. So anyway...I got the last little Indian, which gives me a perfect score for this year's pro football PK season. NEVADA...what's been going on with my PK project there? Well, Sonny Liston was found dead...with dope in his house. This of course is more bad publicity for Vegas...also directs attention nationally to the ugly presence of dope in Vegas. Something the hoods sure do not want called attention to. Also...just recently it was ten degrees in Nevada. Believe it or not. The cold has been killing business, I am told by a contact there. To add to that...Nevada had storm winds recently of 96 miles per hour! NOTE: Be SURE and get a copy of March 1971 Saga magazine, if I can't get you one. There's a great article in it about my work, by Otto Binder. (I've seen an advance copy.) MAKE A NOTE: I predict that someone will try to kill me, or have me killed, in 1971-72. If they are successful...somebody build a grave on top of a mountain...and I swear to you that in that church the happy people will be given a new life, and peace of mind. Because I'll be radiating psi-force from the grave. That's a fact. In January TRUE magazine there's a story about Dr. Fogel and the M's, or Mensa members. Dr. Fogel is the scientist who tested me and found my IQ to be in the Mensa range. It's a great organization...and tells you how to go about joining up. FINALLY: I'm now PK'ing a continent. Africa. Directing PK to sweep out all whites and give the continent back to the natives and the animals. Just saw "Elephant Country" on TV...the animals in Africa have little water or food, and are being all killed off. From now on an irresistible force will be in motion...to get all whites out of Africa, and keep them out for good. The African continent...is to grow again, become wild again, with the good life for the natives and the animals. And stay that way. Keep your eye on Africa, and you'll get a lesson in how psi-force works. Ted. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

We've been acquaintances for some time. The problem is that Owens is becoming famous. Recently Saga magazine ran a series about his incredible feats —predicting President Kennedy's assassination, put- ting the whammy on football teams, talking to space creatures in flying saucers—which mentioned one of my interviews with Owens. Since then, his followers have been sending me let- ters (one fellow said he'd been sending messages to Owens mentally and wasn't getting through). I for- ward the letters to our local czar of the bizarre. A Crystal Ball Bowls A Strike This was okay. What got my dander up was the phone call I got at 4 in the morning from a Boston radio broadcaster whose name and station escape me. Remember, I was awakened at 4 in the morning and was standing by the phone in my paja- mas. The conversation went about like this: Voice on phone: Hello there. Is this Lawrence Maddry, the columnist on the Virginia Beach Virginian-Pilot? Me: I guess so. Voice: Well, this is Bob Johnson on The Night- hawk Show from WRBJ in Boston. We've been read- ing in Saga magazine about the incredible Ted Owens. We're on the air now and my listeners would like for me to phone Owens. Can you give me his number? (Beeping noises on phone.) Me: I don't know his number. It isn't listed. Voice: Well, could you tell us what he's doing now? Me: I hope he's asleep. Look here, I don't know how you people do things up there in Boston, but in the South we don't phone people at 4 in the morning. Voice: Right you are. I'll have to agree with you there, Mr. Maddry. I was wondering if you could tell my listeners something about the fantastic Ted Owens. THERE FOLLOWED a nasty little exchange which must have been heard by thousands of late night radio listeners in Boston. I recall hanging up in the middle of the conversation, Since then I have made a conscious effort to steer clear of Owens with- out antagonizing him.

I was wondering if you could tell my listeners something about the fantastic Ted Owens. THERE FOLLOWED a nasty little exchange which must have been heard by thousands of late night radio listeners in Boston. I recall hanging up in the middle of the conversation. Since then I have made a conscious effort to steer clear of Owens without antagonizing him. At my age, it's too late to acquire an enemy who claims the ability to crash a Boeing 747 merely by thinking about it. Owens evened the score Wednesday morning when, in opening the mail, I found his gift, a copy of "What The Seers Predict for 1971" by Brad Steiger and Warren Smith. The paperback book, published by Lancer in September, has a photograph of a green eyeball on the cover and purports to contain the predictions by "America's greatest psychics" for what may be the most fateful years of our lives. Owens Lo and behold, Ted Owens is among the contributors. For newspaper purposes, we found Owens' generalized predictions less impressive than some of the others. For instance, he notes that "our military will become confused...." We refuse to believe that. Is nothing sacred? That's what talking to flying saucers will do for a fellow. Owens did have the Christian charity to include his mailing address in his article, and we pass it along: Box 3134 CHS, Norfolk, Va. 23514. ONE OF THE MOST interesting prognosticators in the book is Dr. Ernesto A. Montgomery of Los Angeles, credited with amazing feats of extrasensory perception. These are among Dr. Montgomery's predictions for 1971: Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton will separate in November and reconcile shortly thereafter.... Tiny Tim and his wife Miss Vicky will be divorced. Miss Vicky will sue for alimony.... Princess Grace of Monaco and Prince Rainier will separate. She will remain an occupant of the palace but will not share a bedroom with the prince. Now, there a psychic who knows what he's talking about. The military will become confused—indeed. Something really should be done with that Owens fellow. He's getting out of hand.

Text Any textual data included in the document === Page 1 of 17 February 1, 1971..........TO ALL CONTACTS Last Saturday at 2 PM, the day before the actual launch of Apollo 14...the Si's broke through into my mind...with the clear, strong communication that the spacecraft was faulty, even though it had been checked out...and that it was entirely possible that the astronauts would be killed because of it. Now, Mon. through Fri., regular office hours, I have a connection with the govt. I could have phoned about this. But on weekends, and at night, if some terrible thing develops that the Si's warn me about...there is no way to warn the govt. A very stupid situation, considering the value of tipoffs which I've given the govt. in the past which have paid off. Well, I tried to call Otto Binder in New York about it...but he was out. And he didn't call back, either. Next I tried to get hold of Larry Bonko, a columnist here in Norfolk who might be able to get the word through somehow...but I could only get the city editor of the Ledger-Star...I gave him the information and asked him to get it to Bonko. Next I called Mrs. Dyer and gave her the information...because I did want to get it on record. Sat. evening she drove by and I supplemented the verbal information I'd given her with a written document about it. Next day, Sunday, of course...all hell broke loose. I have no xerox...so will have to type you the signed affidavit I have from Mrs. Dyer concerning this: "February 1, 1971 (Monday) TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN -- Ted Owens (PK Man) has asked me to verify the fact that he telephoned me on Saturday afternoon (January 30, 1971...the day before the Apollo 14 launch) and he told me that at 2 PM that afternoon the Si's (UFO intelligences) had communicated with him and instructed him to warn the U.S. Govt. that there was a serious fault in the Apollo craft...which had not shown up in the checkout of the craft...and which made it entirely probable that the astronauts would be killed. He said the Si's said something about the craft's power. -- Later Saturday evening I took some typing work over for Ted to do...and he gave me a written document containing the above-mentioned material; also he told me that he'd tried to phone Otto Binder in New York, but that Binder was not there; and he had phoned the local City Editor of the Ledger-Star to give this important material to Larry Bonko, a local columnist and a contact of Owens. -- The next day, Sunday, late in the day there was a special bulletin on television...to the effect that the astronauts were in serious trouble...because no docking could be achieved. They finally were able to dock by using an unorthodox maneuver, but the question now at this point in time remains...should they try to land on the moon...for if they do, then try to go up and dock and not succeed...it could mean the deaths of all three astronauts (according to a newsman on a TV program Sunday evening.) -- This completely unexpected, serious flaw that has turned up in the craft...and the possibility of resulting death for the astronauts if they gamble on a later docking and fail...certainly bears out the accuracy of Ted Owens' warning yesterday, a day before the actual launch of Apollo 14. -- I swear that this is a true and factual statement, to the best of my knowledge. /S/ Mrs. N. Dyer Court Reporter and Notary Public Plaza One Building, Rm. 401 Norfolk, Virginia." === Page 2 of 17 - Now, a couple of people have asked me about my "NASA PK Project". Okay. I'll explain it. Cape Kennedy used to be PK'd to a fare-thee-well. But a while back I took down this structure completely, to free Cape K of this. However, NASA as a whole was thoroughly saturated with PK years ago...to wreck NASA...and I tell you, it's done a thorough job. The reason for it? Because NASA wouldn't listen to the Si's, or to me, their representative; or try to help the Si's. So the Si's decided to show them their 'muscle'. And they have. NASA now is about broke; has lost many of their good, key personnel; has a lousy morale...and of course, after lightning hit Apollo 12; then a miracle got the men back alive from Apollo 13, on a very unsuccessful flight...and now Apollo 14 is bollexed up...you can imagine the trouble the NASA program will be in, in the future. But Cape Kennedy...is clear. The Si's were TRYING to give NASA a message recently, before the Apollo 14 shot, but you see, NASA is so smart, so brilliant...it doesn't listen to Ted Owens. On January 23, 1971, newsclip: "ASTRONAUT CRASHES COPTER INTO RIVER." Another man for the Apollo 14 flight...was flying a helicopter in Florida over a river. A witness, William Quinlivan, said: "It was only four or five feet above the water. I was struck by how low it was flying. Then, without any evident loss of power or violent maneuver, he struck the water with a big plume of spray. Within two or three seconds after impact fire broke out and burned violently...within one or two minutes I saw a person in the water. He appeared to be all right." Now, if you're right bright...the above will ring a bell in your head. It hasn't been long...since you've read almost those same words from a witness to an 'accident'. Remember? Get out your contact letter telling you about the death of the top man in our nuclear testing program...who was flying low over the water in Nevada near Vegas...and "it seemed like a giant hand pushed the plane down into the water." Okay. Now, pay attention. January 30, 1971, newsclip: "MOON LAND CRAFT CRASHES IN TEST." "A 1.8 million moon landing trainer used earlier this month by Apollo 14 commander Alan B. Shepard, Jr., crashed Friday...and was destroyed...when the electrical power system failed..." ---------- SO HERE YOU HAVE TWO ACCIDENTS, CRASHES, WITHIN A WEEK...BOTH INVOLVING MEMBERS OR INSTRUMENTS OF THE APOLLO 14 SHOT. As I have explained before, the Si's sometimes 'talk' by creating actions. A flying saucer once led a string of police cars for a hundred miles to a town named "Freedom, Pennsylvania". They were 'saying' that they could lead us to freedom, if we'd follow their lead. The purpose of these two significant crashes...was to warn NASA...not to put up this Apollo 14 shot that went up yesterday. They were trying to show us...by creating these two accidents...that the flight could be ill-fated. I've been asked also...about my "terrible blow dealt to America" prediction. Well, for one thing, the Cambodian Air Force was wiped out...45 aircraft. You think this wasn't rough on America? Those were our planes we'd given them. AND NOW WE HAVE TO, ARE GOING TO, REPLACE ALL 45 OF THEM! Also, for another thing...the entire U.S. has been wracked up with hurricane winds and disastrous weather...killer weather...about 30 people have been killed in it. There was 120 mph wind in nearby N.C. alone. Add to these two rough deals...the fact that Apollo 14 mission might go down the drain...and I'd say the U.S. would have been dealt a terrible blow, wouldn't you? === Page 3 of 17 Re my arming helpless animals, world-wide, with an attack -PK mechanism against any hunter who kills them needlessly..........did you read recently where two hunters went out in Idaho..........shot a deer..........then a storm enveloped them..........and one went for help, and when help returned..........the other hunter had shot and killed himself? Very..........interesting. So..........you might be doubtful that my PK systems work? Read my last contact letter..........Jan. 14..........the last paragraph about my PK'ing Africa. It's just taken 16 days for my psi-power mechanisms to slam into Africa! Now, one of the mechs was to bring water to the animals dying for lack of it in Africa..........I aim to fill up all the rivers and streams and pools and ponds in Africa..........in the weeks and months ahead..........for the animals. Well, Jan. 31, 1971, newsclip: "STORM FELICE STRIKES AREAS IN THE NORTH" Goes on to point out that torrential rains poured down for days in East Africa..........then a tremendous cyclone struck on top of that, driving a wall of water which covered these twelve-feet high over the countryside. The flooding affected an area of 20,000 square miles! On Feb. 1, 1971, today, another clip: more rain is pouring into the area already flooded by torrential rains! And the clip says there was a surprisingly low death toll. Only 20 deaths in an area inhabited by several hundreds of thousands of people. So..........it begins. What will follow: Plagues. Plagues the like of which has not been seen since the days of Moses. Plagues which will affect only the white people in Africa, and drive them out of Africa. The black people will not be affected, and will remain in peace and harmony..........to make the country grow back to health again. Also infestations of insects and rodents..........same as in the time of Moses..........to bring about the same result. And rain rain rain everywhere in Africa..........and storms. And 'human' storms, too. Blacks against whites. Let's get back to the just-over Pro Bowl. On the key play..........weird, freak play.. that actually won the game for the Colts..........Renfro, the Cowboy who was supposed to have tipped the ball to a Colt who ran for a touchdown..........claimed he did not touch it! (Remember now that weird freak play where I was PK'ing the Chiefs and the ball took off on its own into the hands of an opponent for the winning touchdown and beat the Chiefs?) Renfro said this, in a newsclip: Jan. 25, 1971: "I didn't think I touched it. But I saw the films, and the ball changed direction..........so I must have touched it." (1) As far as he was concerned, he did not tip that ball, and (2) he saw it change direction. While we're talking about pro football..........you'll be fascinated with my plans for next pro football season. I'm going to PK half of all the pro teams! That's right. Thirteen pro teams. These thirteen (unlucky thirteen, I tell you) will suffer more injuries than the other thirteen; will lose more games than the other thirteen; and NONE OF THESE THIRTEEN WILL BE ABLE TO WIN THE BIG PRIZE, THE WORLD PRO CHAMPIONSHIP! The 13 hard-luck, snakebit teams are: KANSAS CITY CHIEFS DALLAS COWBOYS NEW YORK JETS CHICAGO BEARS WASHINGTON REDSKINS BALTIMORE COLTS SAN DIEGO CHARGERS MIAMI DOLPHINS LOS ANGELES RAMS DENVER BRONCOS HOUSTON OILERS BOSTON PATRIOTS PHILADELPHIA EAGLES You'll notice..........I picked all the weakest teams. (That's a joke, son.) === Page 4 of 17 Before I forget about it, let me tell you something most interesting. Not long ago a friend of mine in Sarasota, Florida, told me he'd buy 700 shares of stock...and if I could use "PK" to make the price of the stock go up...he'd give my family the money to help in my work with the Si's. Okay. The Si's told me to tell him...to take a disc I'd charge especially for the purpose and put the disc in a box containing the shares of stock, seal the box tight and hide it away. The Si's assured me that the disc would make the stocks "grow" in price. JUST SINCE THAT TIME...THE ENTIRE STOCK MARKET HAS BEGUN TO CLIMB! The whole stock market has gone up...since the time my friend sealed that disc in his box of stock! (And Andy, when you read this...will you kindly send me a signed, notarized affidavit to the above...for my files...please?) What else now has happened in my Nevada PK Project? Well, Earl Wilson in his column, from Las Vegas, states: "The Gold Must Go." "Those famous Las Vegas salaries must come down. Jack Entratter of the Hotel Sands says so...some of the gold has gone out of the gold rush. Joey Bishop was up there on stage at the Sands talking about that very thing in comedic vein. "You're my favorite audience -- a small audience," Joey said. "With a small audience, if you don't do good, not too many people know about it." (The gist of this column was...that not many people are going to Las Vegas now. This article is dated January 20, 1971.) -- And there's something else in the Nevada PK Project. Couple of weeks ago 1,400 sheep mysteriously died in Utah. They showed the poor creatures on TV. Angus Ingram, sheep man, said "I've never seen anything like this, and I've been on the desert since 1927. I think it came from something in the AIR." The best clue as far as you contacts are concerned: THIS HAPPENED RIGHT ON THE NEVADA border, where I told you previously several UFO's are operating to produce just such phenomena...and drive people out of Nevada. Well...I've been kind of quiet lately. Time to stand up and stretch, with my psi powers. (1) Recently I made an offer to use my mind to drive the twenty-five million birds out of Scotland Neck, North Carolina. Evidently nobody believed that I could...because they didn't take me up on it. All right then. I'll give a demonstration. Here is what I'm going to do...am going to activate the four HUGE "Emmy-Emma" craft at the four corners of the earth...to throw out psi-sound...which will cause insects, birds and rodents to go wild all over the earth. Coming up in near time ahead...will be the strangest, doggondest display of insects, birds and rodent 'plagues' since the time of Moses, world-wide. (Make that insects, fish, animals, birds and micro-world). (2) Am setting up a 'grid' today over the ENTIRE UNITED STATES, same as the one you'll read about in March '71 Saga that I set up over Norfolk last summer. What this 'grid' will do: it will cause electromagnetic (EM) havoc all over the United States...cause power blackouts...confuse radar, confuse TV signals. It will be an EM circus! It also might confuse airplanes, but let's hope not too badly. -- In closing, the Si's now have accomplished the first part of their objective, with the Saga articles telling their story. But Saga has a temporary, limited readership. The Si's want it told in lasting book form...to be carried in the bookstores...so all peoples the world over get a chance to read about it. Now, the Saga reports will negate a lot of demonstrations the Si's would have put on, for there's no need now. After the book is out...and somehow me, their representative, has financial backing to carry out their two world objectives (castle and lectures) and I'm fixed safely with a house and my Sota church...then the Si's will fade out and quit demonstrating altogether. That's what they say. Ted Owens (PK Man) P.O. Box 3134 CHS, Norfolk, Virginia. === Page 5 of 17 February 2, 1971..........NOTE TO ALL AMERICAN PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS Gentlemen, there are 26 pro football teams in the U.S., and as of this date... 13, or half, of these pro teams...have already been made 'losers' in the oncoming 1971 pro football season starting next fall. I am Ted Owens (PK Man)...see Saga Magazine, August and September, 1970; March and April, 1971. The 13 teams listed below will be attacked mentally by myself...by my mind... and stopped cold this coming season. These 13 unlucky teams will have more injuries, lose more games (and be unable to win the World Pro Championship at the end of the season) than the other 13 not listed. You can blame the Philadelphia Eagles management for this. They publicized that my communications with them...are filed under "junk mail." Well, maybe so...but I told them before the start of the last season I'd stop them, and they only won 3 games. You figure it out. Anyway, a demonstration is in order. The other four teams last season I notified before the start that I'd stop from winning the World Pro Championship...were the Kansas City Chiefs, the New York Jets, the Miami Dolphins, and the Dallas Cowboys. You know now that they were stopped...and if you are astute...you know HOW they were stopped. Those two freak plays...which gave the Colts two touchdowns and won the Pro Bowl for them...were no accidents. They were CAUSED. But for me* the Cowboys would have wiped up the field with the Colts down in Miami. Here's the list: | KANSAS CITY CHIEFS | BALTIMORE COLTS | PHILADELPHIA EAGLES | |---|---|---| | DALLAS COWBOYS | SAN DIEGO CHARGERS | BOSTON PATRIOTS | | NEW YORK JETS | MIAMI DOLPHINS | HOUSTON OILERS | | CHICAGO BEARS | LOS ANGELES RAMS | | | WASHINGTON REDSKINS | DENVER BRONCOS | | Sincerely, Owens Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 *actually the Si's, or UFO intelligences, caused it, using me as their 'spotter'. UFO's? Yes, that's right...go ahead and laugh...but what happened to the Cowboys wasn't so funny. Or to Namath and the Jets. Or to the powerhouse K.C. Chiefs who'd won it all the previous year. Or for that matter..to the Miami Dolphins...who could actually beat the Cowboys and Colts in a double-header on the same afternoon, if it weren't for PK Man, that is. === Page 6 of 17 4 February 8, 1971..........Dear Otto: -- The following IMPORTANT article appeared in the newspaper, Virginian-Pilot, this morning, this date: "QUAKES, EARTH-WOBBLE LINKED" ..Washington (UPI) -- "The spinning earth is reaching the peak of its seven-year "wobble" cycle, and scientists fear as a result that 1971 may see an upsurge in devastating earthquakes. The possibility of an increase in major quakes was reported Wednesday by the National Ocean Survey, an agency of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). For some reason its north-south axis wobbles a bit as the earth revolves every 24 hours. For some reason this motion reaches a maximum every seven years. Studies in recent years have suggested a connection between the polar wobble and its possible quake-producing effects on the planet's structure. Charles A. Whitten, chief geodesist of the National Ocean Survey, said 1971 "should be a critical year." "This is the year in the seven-year cycle of the earth's wobbling when," he said, "the daily shift of the pole reaches its maximum." Whitten noted that as the cycle was building toward the maximum, 1970 witnessed the Peruvian earthquake, the most devastating ever to strike the Western Hemisphere. It killed 50,000 to 70,000 people. The correlation has been so strong, Whitten said, that "I intend to keep 'tuned in' for the next year or two, inasmuch as the daily movement of the pole is increasing and the number of fairly large earthquakes has increased. Records of the last 20 years, he said, show that most of the major quakes of that period "occurred during or close to the peak years." Some scientists think earthquakes contribute to the earth's spin wobble. OTHERS THINK THE WOBBLE TRIGGERS EARTHQUAKES. Whitten feels it may work both ways: THE WOBBLE MAY TRIGGER QUAKES WHICH IN TURN ACCENTUATE THE WOBBLE. (Otto, this is the mechanism of a basic neurosis in a human...tension causing symptoms, which causes more tensions, which causes more symptoms...Ted) IN ANY CASE, THE BASIC SOURCE OF THE WOBBLE AND ITS CYCLICAL NATURE REMAINS A MYSTERY....." Now, Otto, look at YOUR ARTICLE in last September Saga mag: p. 52: "Ted Owens still has fascinating revelations about the Space Intelligences: for instance, how they produce earthquakes. Owens reveals that: "There are four great SI craft positioned around our globe. It is these four craft that I signal when I wish to give a demonstration of earthquakes all around the world, as I have done twice for government agencies and scientists (note: and once for Otto and Saga. Ted) Asking how big those four UFO's are, you get a staggering answer: "These craft are so big, we couldn't even imagine their size...As to just how they create earthquakes: "After I signaled them, they (the four big UFOs) emitted an electromagnetic effect that slightly affected the rate of the earth's spin or movement, causing earthquakes, floods, and unusual weather....able to grip the whole planet and give it a slight wrench (note: which of course would cause 'wobble'. Ted). See how these two articles have an affinity for each other? Now, also in one of your Saga articles you wonder, in print, that the "Emmy-Emma" four UFO's can generate so much EM power. Well, they don't. They draw it, to the best of my knowledge, from another source...which I think is Jupiter. You know from reading my material...that I've stated the Si's are basically from another dimension, that they HQ down deep inside our earth...but that for some reason, they have an operation involving Jupiter. (This is in my material in several places, where people have questioned me.) Now, Otto, this leads us to another newsclip taken from the paper today, 2/4/71, in part as follows: "JUPITER MAY BE MORE STAR THAN PLANET, EXPERT SAYS." By George Getze, Times/Post News Service. "Jupiter, the biggest planet in the Solar System, may be radiating more energy than it receives from the Sun, according to an === Page 7 of 17 astrophysicist of the U.S. Geological Survey. This would mean that Jupiter is really a star and not a planet in the generally accepted sense. Robert Wildey of the Center of Astrogeology at Flagstaff, Arizona, said one of the most significant of Jupiter's "many enigmas" is the possibility that it is sending out into space about twice as much energy as it gets from the Sun...."It may be that Jupiter hasn't quite finished 'falling together' into a rigid planet created from interstellar debris," Wildey said. "If so, its power generation is really the conversion of the energy of gravity. If it is generating its own out put of energy (note: caused by some Si operation? Ted.) we may have to consider Jupiter, instead of Alpha Centauri, the nearest star except for the Sun itself." (Note: now at this point let me remind that in a recent Saga article the writer said that NASA officials had pointed to Alpha Centauri...and indicated they believed the UFO's emanated from that location. Presumably because it was the nearest star. Well, then, if Jupiter is the nearest star...then what I have been saying for some years re the Si's could be correct...Jupiter, not Alpha Centauri, is the point of UFO emanation. You see? Actually I do not believe it's the point of UFO emanation...but an alternate HQ the Si's have, away from earth, FOR A POWER SOURCE THEY CAN"T GET HERE. And I also believe they can DRAW on this Jupiter power source, by some means, to create phenomena here...as well as from their own dimension. Ted.)...... "He added that nobody is quite sure why Jupiter should have its own power generation." Therefore the picture as I see it...and these articles tend to rather confirm it...is that the four giant UFO's at the corners of the earth...can draw, by some means, by remote control, power from Jupiter (that they cannot get, or cannot use, from their own dimension, to affect the rate of spin of our earth. And it's my contention...that they have manufactured, created, somehow this huge power-radiation on Jupiter...which they utilize to power their craft or some of their craft, somehow...and to make our earth 'wobble' when they want to, for reasons of their own...AND TO PRODUCE OTHER POWER-CAUSED EFFECTS either earth-related, or non-earth related. And being part Si myself...as I've pointed out before...I do have a hazy insight into what they are, what they are doing, etc.,....that no other humans have. I could be correct; as I have been correct in other ways, in these key points. Going back to the first article I typed for you, note: "the daily movement of the pole is increasing and the number of fairly large earthquakes has increased." This could be due to the fact that they have not cut off our "Saga" demonstration...i.e., as you know they started with 'small' quakes and graduated into the Peru and Pakistan horrors. This could be building into a climax, ending in a horrendous U.S. quake...which I think will occur. And the astrophysicist points out: "The basic source of the wobble and its cyclical nature...remains a mystery." Not to me, it doesn't. The article does not point out...that just recently two of the worst catastrophes in history occurred; Peru and Pakistan. What does this have to do with "every seven years"? Sincerely, Owen Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 === Page 8 of 17 Dr Sprinkle February 25, 1971..........TO ALL CONTACTS I wonder how many of you 35 out there..........have already figured out.......... what's happened since my Feb. 1st, 1971, contact letter to you..........and who did it? Get the March 1971 issue of Saga magazine and read it carefully; repeat with the coming April issue of Saga..........and you will then be able to comprehend what has happened the past three weeks. It should scare you witless. In my letter to you of Feb. 1, 1971, I said: "Well, I've been kind of quiet lately. Time to stand up and stretch, with my psi powers." (1) I'd use the four huge UFO's at the corners of the earth..........to send forth psi sound..........which would cause insects, fish, animals, birds and micro-world to go wild..........all over the earth. Now check these newspaper clippings: Feb. 21, 1971, Los Angeles. (UPI) AFTERSHOCKS KEEP CALIFORNIA DOGS JUMPING..........Hundreds Loose and Biting.......... "The earthquake that rocked Southern California Feb. 9 not only put the fear of God in thousands of humans, but it also apparently threw hundreds of animals, notably dogs, into a state of frenzy. "There are hundreds of dogs on the loose," Ernest Jensen, district supervisor of the East San Fernando Valley Animal Shelter, said. Jensen said many of the animals escaped when backyard walls and fences collapsed during the killer quake. "Some of the dogs are now running in parks, hungry and frightened," Jensen said. He added that reports of dog bites have also increased and attributed the cause to the agitated conditions the animals are in because of continuing aftershocks. (Ha. He has leaped to a wrong, albeit seemingly logical, conclusion. Ted.) ..........Americana, Brazil (AP) BATHERS BEWARE..........Feb. 22, 1971.........."Authorities have warned bathers at local reservoirs to watch out for what may be flesh-eating piranha fish. A dozen swimmers reported being bitten in a one-week period. (You see? Dogs biting people suddenly by the hundreds..........fish biting people suddenly. Ted.) ..........Feb. 22, 1971..........pic in paper of man whose face and arm are horribly bitten..........local Norfolk paper.........."NOT SO GENTLE INSURRECTION".......... Jethrow Midgett is a wiser commercial fisherman than he was last week. He may not catch any more fish this week, but he is likely to get fewer seal bites. Midgett displays wounds received at Rodanthe on North Carolina's Outer Banks last Friday when a seal bit him on the chin, lower lip, and left arm. The seal struck as Midgett started to pat it on the head. Midgett said he was attempting to demonstrate the animal's gentle character." (Again, you see? A normally gentle seal brutally attacks this man and chews him all up. Ted.) Also, in my Feb. 1 letter I told you that (2) "Am setting up a 'grid' today over the ENTIRE UNITED STATES, same as the one you'll read about in March '71 Saga that I set up over Norfolk last summer. What this 'grid' will do: it will cause electromagnetic (EM) havoc all over the United States..........cause power blackouts..........confuse radar, confuse TV signals. It will be an EM circus!" (while keeping that paragraph closely in mind, note also that I wrote to Otto Binder on Feb. 4 as follows: "..........the daily movement of the pole is increasing and the number of fairly large earthquakes has increased." This could be due to the fact that they (the Si's) have not cut off our "Saga" demonstration..........i.e., as you know they started with 'small' quakes and graduated into the Peru and Pakistan horrors. This could be building into a climax, ending in a horrendous U.S. quake..........which I think will occur.") === Page 9 of 17 2...Are you following me so far? Just after I sent you the Feb. 1 letter...I placed the 'grid' mentally over the entire U.S. and activated it; then signaled the four huge UFO's at the corners of the earth to issue forth the sound which would drive you-know-what wild. ...Then all hell broke loose. (Mind you...I had no way of knowing all that that 'grid' would do. I just had in mind causing power blackouts everywhere and confusing radio and TV signals everywhere. But...THE SI'S OF COURSE INSERTED THE IDEA INTO MY BRAIN AND THEY KNEW WHAT IT WOULD DO! Another...formidable Si demonstration! Which, unfortunately, only a few of you will know about. 35 people are not very many.) Feb. 8, 1971...AT LEAST 100 HURT, DAMAGE HEAVY IN FLA. TORNADO...Gulf Breeze, Fla. (AP) (Article too long...but a tornado kicked the daylights out of a section of Florida. "It has to be a miracle that nobody was killed," said the Rev. Gerald Munday. Interesting thing to note... "Flashing lightning lit the sky like it was daytime." (Remember that, contacts...it's important, and I'll link it up later on.) ...Feb. 8, 1971...BLAST KNOCKS OUT N.Y. POWER...Radio, TV off Air... New York (AP) (Long article explains how explosion, cause unknown, knocked radio and TV stations off the air, including the Empire State Building...plus blacking out areas of New York City. Now note this: "Electrical power outages in two other of the city's five boroughs... were also reported. However a spokesman for Consolidated Edison Co., the area's major utility, said those failures were unrelated to the explosion at the Waterside power plant on the East Side of Manhattan." (Note: Of course that U.S. 'grid' is doing all of this...and it's just warming up! Ted.) Another newsclip on the same: "The cause of a Sunday night power blackout which left 500,000 Manhattan residents in the dark and blanked television channels in parts of four states remained unknown Monday. Teams of blue-helmeted Consolidated Edison Co. experts carried out a daylong examination of power feeds in the originally affected area without finding the source or location of the trouble." ...Feb. 9, 1971...KILLER QUAKE JOLTS LA AREA...Los Angeles (AP) (No need to go into this one. You all know about it. President Nixon called this part of California a "major disaster area." Enough said. And I was right to Otto about the "horrendous quake"...also that the U.S. would be dealt a "terrible blow" within 30 days; remember? Ted.) Now, at this point let me insert a newsclipping sent me by a friend, Bob Gray, from Berkley, Calif....San Francisco Chronicle, Wed. Feb. 17, 1971...JOYCE HABER.."I've been culling some odd, if inevitable, tales about the disaster--or Earthquake, 1971"--as they called it on CBS-TV in their minute-by-minute coverage. For my part, I read that certain people said the sky lit up with "flashes of light" a few hours before the quake occurred. That brought to mind my own observation. I remembered rising at 4 a.m. on Feb. 9...and reflecting that it seemed as light as daybreak, which happens around 6. I can't explain that, but I promise it's true." (Note: Now note that quote above where "flashing lightning lit up the sky like it was daytime" connected with the Florida tornado...and compare the two! Ted.) ...Now things were even going to get weirder. Feb. 20, 1971... BROADCAST STATIONS GET FALSE ALERT...Washington (AP) "The nation's radio stations were erroneously alerted today that a national emergency existed..." (You see, here we go again...not a blackout this time, but a Si-caused human error...still picking on radio stations...and here the Si's are telling us in their own way that a national emergency exists!) === Page 10 of 17 ...Yes, the 'grid' is doing all of this: ...Feb. 21, 1971...REPAIRS PUT MASS., R.I., IN DARKNESS...Boston (UPI) Rhode Island lost all electrical power for up to three hours Saturday when a major transmission line failed...Several radio stations were knocked off the air. (Following this pattern now? Ted.) Virtually every community in southeastern Massachusetts from Brockton down to Provincetown on the tip of Cape Cod was affected, as were the cities of Middletown, Newport, and Portsmouth in southeastern Rhode Island." The explanation was that while one line was being repaired, "the alternate line failed." ...Feb. 21, 1971...SEVERE WINDS POUND UTAH...Gusts Up To 88 MPH Hit Trains, Trucks, Trailers...Salt Lake City, Utah (UPI)...Hurricane-velocity winds slapped northern Utah Saturday, knocking over trees, trains, trucks and trailers, ripping off roofs and cutting power... (Note: remember that psi-force mechanisms will work in a thousand ways, to bring about a single result, if necessary. Ted.) The winds whipped out of mountain canyons with such force that 10 cars of a freight train were blown off the tracks and a dozen homes at a trailer park were rolled into a giant jumble. Power failures were wide spread." (and there was lots more about this, but you get the idea. Ted.) ...Feb. 22, 1971...TORNADOES IN SOUTH KILL 73...by the AP (over 100 tornadoes just kicked the slats out of Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama. Now note: BEFORE this occurred...I dreamed the night before it happened...clearly...that I was in a state near Texas...and was PK'ing a football game in that state...but had to go 200 miles to Dallas in order to see a TV set where it was not blacked out so I could work on the game play by play. Next morning I read in the paper where this area I dreamed I was in had been steamrollered by dozens of tornadoes! You figure that one out. Ted.) And here again, power was knocked out everywhere...a different cause again...and Mississippi was called a "major disaster area" by President Nixon. To quote one newsclip, "It looked like a thousand hells" one area resident said. (Are you beginning to get some idea...of the power of the SI's now? And of the power of my mind connected with them?

Dr. Fogel gave me all of my tests when I entered into Mensa as a member. Dr. Fogel...is also International Research Officer (their chief scientist) for Mensa. It is his function to run tests and surveys on the people with the top IQ's in the world (the M's) and projects involving further research into what makes the top brains of mankind tick; what better use can be made of them; etc etc. This document he has given me...is a pure statement of fact. Nothing more. But I'll tell you this: I didn't know there was a scientist in the world of his prestigious stature...who would back me up in my revolutionary approach to the field of psi phenomena...by giving me a signed confirmation such as this. Of one thing you can be absolutely positive...Dr. Max Fogel would never lend his name to a document such as this...if he thought for one minute that I were mentally deluded, psychotic, or otherwise off-the-beam. He probed my mind for hours and hours, with the ruggedest of mental tests...when I applied to get into Mensa...so he knows, being a psychiatrist...my mental stability, my approximate IQ, and all the rest. I am exceedingly grateful to Dr. Fogel for supplying me with this affidavit.

Owens === Page 12 of 17 MENSA Reply: 340 Brighton Road Norristown, Pa. 19403 A NON-PROFIT EDUCATIONAL CORPORATION CHARTERED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, 50 EAST 42ND STREET, NEW YORK, N.Y. 10017 February 15, 1971 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: Ted Owens, who calls himself "PK Man", notified me during the early part of the 1970 pro football season (which just finished) that he would control five professional football teams this season, so that they could not win the coveted Super Bowl Pro Football Championship at the end of the season. He specifically said that he would work at causing injuries to key players, in order to bring this about. The five teams were the Kansas City Chiefs (who had won the Super Bowl the year previously); the New York Jets (who had won the Super Bowl the year before that); the Dallas Cowboys; the Miami Dolphins, and the Philadelphia Eagles. After Owens wrote me this the entire backfield of the New York Jets was wiped out by crippling injuries - Namath, Snell, etc. Much the same thing occurred to the Kansas City Chiefs. As the season progressed Owens kept writing reports to me on his progress. He claims to be able to use psychokinesis, or "PK" as it is called in parapsychology, to bring this about. He uses TV and radio to be in on every play of each game, sometimes working on two games simultaneously. The Chiefs and Jets, who were the heavyweight contenders at the beginning of the season, fell by the wayside as the season went on. (Owens even helped the Raiders win their games miraculously, he claims, in order to put down the Chiefs, who were in the same division.) The Eagles only won three games in the year. The Dolphins, a very tough team, survived longer until Owens eliminated them, he claims, toward the end of the season. The Cowboys should have been eliminated, Owens claims, earlier, but in two key games their opponents threw away the opportunities Owens gave them to win, as he explains it, and the Cowboys beat them. (In one of these two games the Cowboys were only able to score 5 points.) Then came the Super Bowl. Owens wrote to me before the game, saying that he would do his best to make them lose this all-important game. During the game Max L.

There were two "tipped" passes that ended in the arms of Colts for touchdowns, one ending with a kick that both the kicker and the holder stated "seemed" to "fade a little, then come back", lifting again into the air over the crossbars.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 4** February 1, 1971....TO ALL CONTACTS Last Saturday at 2 PM, the day before the actual launch of Apollo 14....the SI's broke through into my mind....with the clear, strong communication that the spacecraft was faulty, even though it had been checked out....and that it was entirely possible that the astronauts would be killed because of it. Now, Mon. through Fri., regular office hours, I have a connection with the govt. I could have phoned about this. But on weekends, and at night, if some terrible thing develops that the SI's warn me about....there is no way to warn the govt. A very stupid situation, considering the value of tipoffs which I've given the Govt. in the past which have paid off. Well, I tried to call Otto Binder in New York about it....but he was out. And he didn't call back, either. Next I tried to get hold of Larry Bonko, a columnist here in Norfolk who might be able to get the word through somehow....but I could only get the city editor of the Ledger-Star....I gave him the information and asked him to get it to Bonko. Next I called Mrs. Dyer and gave her the information....because I did want to get it on record. Sat. evening she drove by and I supplemented the verbal information I'd given her with a written document about it. Next day, Sunday, of course....all hell broke loose. I have no xerox....so will have to type you the signed affidavit I have from Mrs. Dyer concerning this: "February 1, 1971 (Monday) TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN -- Ted Owens (PK Man) has asked me to verify the fact that he telephoned me on Saturday afternoon (January 30, 1971....the day before the Apollo 14 launch) and he told me that at 2 PM that afternoon the SI's (UFO Intelligences) had communicated with him and instructed him to warn the U.S. Govt. that there was a serious fault in the Apollo craft....which had not shown up in the checkout of the craft....and which made it entirely probable that the astronauts would be killed. He said the SI's said something about the craft's power. -- Later Saturday evening I took some typing work over for Ted to do....and he gave me a written document containing the above-mentioned material; also he told me that he'd tried to phone Otto Binder in New York, but that Binder was not there; and he had phoned the local City Editor of the Ledger-Star to give this important material to Larry Bonko, a local columnist and a contact of Owens. -- The next day, Sunday, late in the day there was a special bulletin on television....to the effect that the astronauts were in serious trouble....because no docking could be achieved. They finally were able to dock by using an unorthodox maneuver, but the question now at this point in time remains....should they try to land on the moon....for if they do, then try to go up and dock and not succeed....it could mean the deaths of all three astronauts (according to a newsman on a TV program Sunday evening.) -- This completely unexpected, serious flaw that has turned up in the craft....and the possibility of resulting death for the astronauts if they gamble on a later docking and fail....certainly bears out the accuracy of Ted Owens' warning yesterday, a day before the actual launch of Apollo 14. -- I swear that this is a true and factual statement, to the best of my knowledge. /S/ Mrs. N. Dyer Court Reporter and Notary Public Plaza One Building, Rm. 401 Norfolk, Virginia." === **Page: 2 of 4** Now, a couple of people have asked me about my "NASA PK Project". Okay. I'll explain it. I'll remain it. Cape Kennedy used to be PK'd to a fare-thee-well. But while back I took down this structure completely, to free Cape K of this. However, NASA as a whole was thoroughly saturated with NASA...and I tell you, it's done a thorough job. The reason for it? Because NASA wouldn't listen to the SI's, or to me, their representative; or try to help the SI's. So the SI's decided to show them their 'muscle'. And they have. NASA is about broke; has lost yeax many of their good, key personnel; has a lousy morale...and of course, after lightning hit Apollo 12; then a miracle got the men back alive from Apollo 13, on a very unsuccessful flight...and now Apollo 14 is bollexed up...you can imagine the trouble the NASA program will be in, in the future. But Cape Kennedy...is clear. The SI's were TRYING to give NASA a message recently, before the Apollo 14 shot, but you see, NASA is so smart, so brilliant...it doesn't listen to Ted Owens. On Jaunary 23, 1971, newsclip: "ASTROHAUT CRASHES COPTER INTO RIVER". Another man for the Apollo 14 flight...was flying a helicopter in Florida over a river. A witness, William Quinlivan, said: "It was only four or five feet above the water. I was struck by how low it was flying. Then, without any evident loss of power or violent maneuver, he struck the water with a big plume of spray. Within two or three seconds after impact fire broke out and burned violently... within one or two minutes I saw a person in the water. He appeared to be all right." Now, if you're right bright...the above will ring a bell in your head. It hasn't been long...since you've read almost those same words from a witness to an 'accident'. Remember? Get out your contact letter telling you about the death of the top man in our nuclear testing program...who was flying low over the water in Nevada near Vegas...and "it seemed like a giant hand pushed the plane down into the water." Okay. Now, pay attention. January 30, 1971, newsclip: "MOON LAND CRAFT CRASHES IN TEST." "A 1.8 million moon landing trainer used earlier this month by Apollo 14 commander Alan B. Shepard, Jr., crashed Friday...and was destroyed... when the electrical power system failed..." -- SO HERE YOU HAVE TWO ACCIDENTS, CRASHES, WITHIN A WEEK...BOTH INVOLVING MEMBERS OR INSTRUMENTS OF THE APOLLO 14 SHOT. As I have explained before, the SI's sometimes 'talk' by creating actions. A flying saucer once led a string of police cars for a hundred miles to a town named "Freedom, Pennsylvania". They were 'saying' that they could lead us to freedom, if we'd folow their lead. The purpose of these two significant crashes...was to warn NASA...not to put up the Apollo 14 shot that went up yesterday. They were trying to show us... by creating these two accidents...that the flight could be ill-fated. I've been asked also...about my "terrible blow dealt to America" prediction. Well, for one thing, the Cambodian Air Force was wiped out...45 aircraft. You think this wasn't rough on America? Those were our planes we'd given them. AND NOW WE HAVE TO, ARE GOING TO, REPLACE ALL 45 OF THEM! Also, for another thing...the entire U.S. has been wracked up with hurricane winds and disastrous weather...killer weather...about 30 people have been killed in it. There was 120. mph wind in nearby N.C. alone. Add to these two rough deals...the fact that Apollo 14 mission might go down the drain...and I'd say the U.S. would have been dealt a terrible blow, wouldn't you? === **Page: 3 of 4** Re my arming helpless animals, world-wide, with an attack -PK mechanism against any hunter who kills them needlessly...did you read recently where two hunters went out in Idaho...shot a deer...then a storm enveloped them...and one went for help, and when help returned...the other hunter had shot and killed himself? Very...interesting. So...you might be doubtful that my PK systems work? Read my last contact letter...Jan. 14...the last paragraph about my PK'ing Africa. It's just taken 16 days for my psi-power mechanisms to slam into Africa! Now, one of the mechs was to bring water to the animals dying for lack of it in Africa...I aim to fill up all the rivers and streams and pools and ponds in Africa...in the weeks and months ahead...for the animals. Well, Jan. 31, 1971, newsclip: "STORM FELICE STRIKES AREAS IN THE NORTH" Goes on to point out that torrential rains poured down for days in East Africa...then a tremendous cyclone struck on top of that, driving a wall of water which covered trees twelve-feet high over the countryside. The flooding affected an area of 20,000 square miles! On Feb. 1, 1971, today, another clip: more rain is pouring into the area already flooded by torrential rains! And the clip says there was a surprisingly low death toll. Only 20 deaths in an area inhabited by several hundreds of thousands of people. So...it begins. What will follow: Plagues. Plagues the like of which has not been seen since the days of Moses. Plagues which will affect only the white people in Africa, and drive them out of Africa. The black people will not remain in peace and harmony...to make the country grow back to health again. Also infestations of insects and rodents...same as in the time of Moses...to bring about the same result. And rain rain rain everywhere in Africa...and storms. And 'human' storms, too. Blacks against whites. Let's get back to the just-over Pro Bowl. On the key play...weird, freak play..that actually won the game for the Colts...Renfro, the Cowboy who was supposed to have tipped the ball to a Colt who ran for a touchdown...claimed he did not touch it! (Remember now that weird freak play where I was PK'ing the Chiefs and the ball took off on its own into the hands of an opponent for the winning touchdown and beat the Chiefs?) Renfro said this, in a newsclip: Jan. 25, 1971: "I didn't think I touched it. But I saw the films, and the ball changed direction...so I must have touched it." (1) As far as he was concerned, he did not tip that ball, and (2) he saw it change direction. While we're talking about pro football...you'll be fascinated with my plans for next pro football season. I'm going to PK half of all the pro teams! That's right. Thirteen pro teams. These thirteen (unlucky thirteen, I tell you) will suffer more injuries than the other thirteen; will lose more games than the other thirteen; and NONE OF THESE THIRTEEN WILL BE ABLE TO WIN THE BIG PRIZE, THE WORLD PRO CHAMPIONSHIP! The 13 hard-luck, snakebit teams are: KANSAS CITY CHIEFS BALTIMORE COLTS HOUSTON OILERS DALLAS COWBOYS SAN DIEGO CHARGERS BOSTON PATRIOTS NEW YORK JETS MIAMI DOLPHINS PHILADELPHIA EAGLES CHICAGO BEARS LOS ANGELES RAMS WASHINGTON REDSKINS DENVER BRONCOS You'll notice...I picked all the weakest teams. (That's a joke, son.) === **Page: 4 of 4** -- Before I forget about it, let me tell you something interesting. Not long ago a friend of mine in Sarasota, Florida, told me he'd buy 700 shares of stock...and if I could use "PK" to make the price of the stock go up...he'd give me his family the money to help in my work with the Si's. Okay. The Si's told me to tell him...to take a disc I'd charge especially for the purpose and put the disc in a box containing the shares of stock, seal the box tight and hide it away. The Si's assured me that the disc would make the stocks "grow" in price. JUST SINCE THAT TIME...THE PK HAS BEGUN TO CLIMB! The whole stock market has gone up...since the time my friend sealed that disc in his box of stock! (And Andy, when you read this...will you kindly send me a signed, notarized affidavit to the above...for my files...please?) What else now has happened in my Nevada PK Project? Well, Earl Wilson in his column, from Las Vegas, states: "The Gold Must Go." "Those famous Las Vegas salaries must come down." Jack Entratter of the Hotel Sands says so...some of the gold rush. Joey Bishop was up there on stage at the Sands talking about that very thing in comedic vein. "You're my favorite audience -- a small audience," Joey said. "With a small audience, if you don't do good, not too many people know about it." (The gist of this column was...that not many people are going to Las Vegas now. This article is dated January 20, 1971.) -- And there's something else in the Nevada PK Project. Couple of weeks ago 1,400 sheep mysteriously died in Utah. They showed the poor creatures on TV. Angus Ingram, sheep man, said "I've never seen anything like this, and I've been on the desert since 1927. I think it came from something in the AIR." The best clue as far as you contacts are concerned: THIS HAPPENED RIGHT ON THE NEVADA border, where I told you previously several UFO's are operating to produce just such phenomena...and drive people out of Nevada. Well...I've been kind of quiet lately. Time to stand up and stretch, with my psi powers. (1) Recently I made an offer to use my mind to drive the twenty-five million birds out of Scotland Neck, North Carolina. Evidently nobody believed that I could...because they didn't take me up on it. All right then. I'll give a demonstration. Here is what I'm going to do...am going to activate the four HUGE "Emmy-Emma" craft at the four corners of the earth...to throw out psi-sound...which will cause insects, birds and rodents to go wild all over the earth. Coming up in near time ahead...will be the strangest, doggondest display of insects, birds and rodent 'plagues' since the time of Moses, world-wide. (Make that insects, fish, animals, birds and micro-world). (2) Am setting up a 'grid' today over the ENTIRE UNITED STATES, same as the one you'll read about in March '71 Saga that I set up over Norfolk last summer. What this 'grid' will do: it will cause electromagnetic (EM) havoc all over the United States...cause power blackouts...confuse radar, confuse TV signals. It will be an EM circus! It also might confuse airplanes, but let's hope not too badly. -- In closing, the Si's now have accomplished the first part of their objective, with the Saga articles telling their story. But Saga has a temporary, limited readership. The Si's want it told in lasting book form...to be carried in the bookstores...so all peoples the world over get a chance to read about it. Now, the Saga reports will negate a lot of demonstrations the Si's would have put on, for there's no need now. After the book is out...and somehow me, their representative, has financial backing to carry out their two world objectives (castle and lectures) and I'm fixed safely with a house and my Sota church...then the Si's will fade out and quit demonstrating altogether. That's what they say. Ted Owens (PK Man) 3134 CHS, Norfolk, Virginia. 4 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I am Ted Owens (PK Man)...see Saga Magazine, August and September, 1970, March and April, 1971. The 13 teams listed below will be attacked mentally by myself...by my mind... and stopped cold this coming season. These 13 unlucky teams will have more injuries, lose more games (and be unable to win the World Pro Championship at the end of the season) than the other 13 not listed. You can blame the Philadelphia Eagles management for this. They publicized that my communications with them...are filed under 'junk mail.' Well, maybe so...but I told them before the start of the last season I'd stop them, and they only won 3 games. You figure it out. Anyway, a demonstration is in order. The other four teams last season I notified before the start that I'd stop from winning the World Pro Championship...were the Kansas City Chiefs, the New York Jets, the Miami Dolphins, and the Dallas Cowboys. You know now that they were stopped...and if you are astute... you know HOW they were stopped. Those two freak plays...which gave the Colts two touchdowns and won the Pro Bowl for them...were no accidents. They were CAUSED. But for me* the Cowboys would have wiped up the field with the Colts down in Miami. Here's the list: * KANSAS CITY CHIEFS * DALLAS COWBOYS * NEW YORK JETS * CHICAGO BEARS * WASHINGTON REDSKINS * BALTIMORE COLTS * SAN DIEGO CHARGERS * MIAMI DOLPHINS * LOS ANGELES RAMS * DENVER BRONCOS * PHILADELPHIA EAGLES * BOSTON PATRIOTS * HOUSTON OILERS Sincerely, Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 *actually the SI's, or UFO intelligences, caused it, using me as their 'spotter'. UFO's? Yes, that's right...go ahead and laugh...but what happened to the Cowboys wasn't so funny. Or to Namath and the Jets. Or to the powerhouse K.C. Chiefs who'd won it all the previous year. Or for that matter..to the Miami Dolphins...who could actually beat the Cowboys and Colts in a double-header on the same afternoon, if it weren't for PK Man, that is.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 2** February 8, 1971......Dear Otto: -- The following IMPORTANT article appeared in the newspaper, Virginnian-Pilot, this morning, this date: "QUAKES, EARTH-WOBBLE LINKED". .Washington (UPI) -- "The spinning earth is reaching the peak of its seven-year "wobble" cycle, and scientists fear as a result that 1971 may see an upsurge in devastating earthquakes. The possibility of an increase in major quakes was reported Wednesday by the National Ocean Survey, an agency of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). For some reason its north-south axis wobbles a bit as the earth revolves every 24 hours. For some reason this motion reaches a maximum every seven years. Studies in recent years have suggested a connection between the polar wobble and its possible quake-producing effects on the planet's structure. Charles A. Whitten, chief geodist of the National Ocean Survey, said 1971 "should be a critical year." "This is the year in the seven-year cycle of the earth's wobbling when," he said, "the daily shift of the pole reaches its maximum." Whitten noted that as the cycle was building toward the maximum, 1970 witnessed the Peruvian earthquake, the most devastating ever to strike the Western Hemisphere. It killed 50,000 to 70,000 people. The correlation has been so strong, Whitten said, that "I intend to keep 'tuned in' for the next year or two, inasmuch as the daily movement of the pole is increasing and the number of fairly large earthquakes has increased. Records of the last 20 years, he said, whow that most of the major quakes of that period "occurred during or close to the peak years." Some scientists think earthquakes contribute to the earth's spin wobble. OTHERS THINK THE WOBBLE TRIGGERS EARTHQUAKES. Whitten feels it may work both ways: THE WOBBLE MAY TRIGGER QUAKES WHICH IN TURN ACCENTUAGE THE WOBBLE. (Otto, this is the mechanism of a basic neurosis in a human...tension causing symptoms, which causes more symptoms...Ted) IN ANY CASE, THE BASIC SOURCE OF THE WOBBLE AND ITS CYCLICAL NATURE REMAINS A MYSTERY...." Now, Otto, look at YOUR ARTICLE in last September Saga mag: p. 52: "Ted Owens still has fascinating revelations about the Space Intelligences: for instance, how they produce earthquakes. Owens reveals that: "There are four great SI craft positioned around our globe. It is these four craft that I wish to give a demonstration of earthquakes all around the world, as have done twice for government agencies and scientists (note: and once for Otto and Saga. Ted) Asking how big those four UFO's are, you get a staggering answer: "These craft are so big, we couldn't even imagine their size...As to just how they create earthquakes: "After I signaled them, they emitted an electromagnetic effect that slightly affected the rate of the earth's spin or movement, causing earthquakes, floods, and unusual weathers....able to grip the whole planet and give it a slight wrench which of course would cause 'wobble'. Ted). See how these two articles have an affinity for each other? Now, also in one of your Saga articles you wonder, in print, that the "Emmy-Emma" four UFO's can generate so much EM power. Well, they don't. They draw it, to the best of my knowledge, from another source...which I think is Jupiter. You know that I've stated the Si's are basically from another dimension, that they HO down deep inside our earth...but that for some reason, they have an operation involving Jupiter. (This is in my material in several places, where people have questioned me.) Now, Otto, this leads us to another newsclip taken from the paper today, 2/4/71, in part as follows: "JUPITER MAY BE MORE STAR THAN PLANET, EXPERT SAYS." XMH By George Getze, Times/Post News Service. "Jupiter, the biggest planet in the Solar System, may be radiating more energy than it receives from the Sun, according to an === **Page: 2 of 2** astrophysicist of the U.S. Geological Survey. This would mean that Jupiter is really a star and not a planet in the generally accepted sense. Robert Wildey of the Center of Astrogeology at Flagstaff, Arizona, said one of the most significant of Jupiter's "many enigmas" is the possibility that it is sending out into space about twice as much energy as it gets from the Sun...."It may be that Jupiter hasn't quite finished 'falling together' into a rigid planet created from interstellar debris," Wildey said. "If so, its proper generation is really the conversion of the energy of gravity. It is generating its own output of energy (note: caused by some Si operation? Ted.) we may have to consider Jupiter, instead of Alpha Centauri, the nearest star except for the Sun itself." (Note: now at this point let me remind that in a recent Saga article the writer said that NASA officials had pointed to Alpha Centauri...and indicated they believed the UFO's emanated from that location. Presumably because it was the nearest star. Well, then, if Jupiter is the nearest star...then what I have been saying for some years re the Si's could be correct...Jupiter, the point of UFO emanation. You see? Actually I do not believe it's the point of UFO emanation...but an alternate HQ the Si's have, away from earth, FOR A POWER SOURCE THEY CAN'T GET HERE. And I also believe they can DRAW on this Jupiter power source, by some means, to create phenomena here...as well as from their own dimension. Ted.)..... "He added that nobody is quite sure why Jupiter should have its own power generation." Therefore the picture as I see it...and these articles tend to rather confirm it...is that the four giant UFO's at the corners of the earth...can draw, by some means, by remote control, power from Jupiter (that they cannot get, or cannot use, from their own dimension, to affect the rate of spin of our earth. And it's my contention...that they have manufactured, created, somehow this huge power-radiation on Jupiter...which they utilize to power their craft or some of their craft, somehow...and to make our earth 'wobble' when they want to, for reasons of their own...AND TO PRODUCE OTHER POWER-CAUSED EFFECTS either earth-related, or non-earth related. And being part Si myself...as I've pointed out before...I do have a hazy insight into what they are, what they are doing, etc...that no other humans have. I could be correct; as I have been correct in other ways, in these key points. Going back to the first article I typed for you, note: "the daily movement of the pole is increasing and the number of fairly large earthquakes has increased." This could be due to the fact that they have not cut off our "Saga" demonstration...i.e., as you know they started with 'small' quakes and graduated into the Peru and Pakistan horrors. This could be building into a climax, ending in a horrendous U.S. quake...which I think will occur. And the astrophysicist points out: "The basic source of the wobble and its cyclical nature...remains a mystery." Not to me, it doesn't. The article does point out...that just recently two of the worst catastrophes in history occurred; Peru and Pakistan. What does this have to do with "every seven years"?

This also...includes the "America will be dealt a terrible blow" prediction I made you several weeks ago (given you by the si's.) I'd thought it might be the destruction of the Cambodian Air Force (30 aircraft; those destroyed, and those replaced, by the U.S. -- a hell of a blow to us, financially.) (I'd thought it was the killer storms that have struck the U.S., killing 30-50 people over the U.S.) -- but no, rather obviously, today, it is the tremendous smashing blow struck in California by the unexpected earthquake there! The si's had warned last Saturday...that something was wrong on the Apollo 14 mission...following which the docking went wrong...then the LEM gave the emergency short signal which came within 30 seconds of ruining the entire Apollo 14 moon program! But it didn't...so today America was dealt the major blow of a major earthquake in California. Although the si's warned last Saturday...that NASA had left something unchecked that would cause trouble (docking and LEM short signal) you will recall that I told you all...THIS MOON SHOT WAS ON THE HOUSE!

Ted Owens tck Mantz 3/1/73 COPY Feb. 22, 1971 Mr. Ross Perot c/o UNITED WE STAND Exchange Bank Tower Box 45142 Dallas, Texas 75235 Dear Mr. Perot: Ted Owens has asked me to give my qualifications as a writer, in regard to the articles you read in SAGA magazine, to indicate that they were carefully researched and written. I've been a freelance writer and reporter for some 30 years. My published work includes a dozen science books, many books of science fiction, and a hundred or more science articles for magazines. In the case of Ted Owens, he furnished me with thorough documentation, affidavits, and signed testimonies as to the PK feats he accomplished in the past ten years, as featured in those articles. He also sent me his entire set of personal diaries, which back up all of his feats as they occurred. I am quite convinced that Ted Owens does possess some amazing kind of psychokinetic powers which account for the deeds listed. I have made a thorough study of psi-phenomena in general and therefore know the field. Ted Owens, to my mind, has psi-power potential that has not yet been used fully, which have apparently been bestowed upon him by the SI's (Space Intelligences). I know it all sounds startling but facts are still facts. Science has not yet caught up to the true mysteries of the universe, in my opinion.

Get the March 1971 issue of Saga magazine and read it carefully...repeat with the coming April issue of Saga...and you will then be able to comprehend what has happened the past three weeks. It should scare you witless. In my letter to you of Feb. 1, 1971, I said: "Well, I've been kind of quiet lately. Time to stand up and stretch, with my psi powers." (1) I'd use the four huge UFO's at the corners of the earth...to send forth psi sound...which would cause insects, fish, animals, birds and micro-world to go wild...all over the earth. Now check these newspaper clippings: Feb. 21, 1971, Los Angeles (UPI) AFTERSHOCKS KEEP CALIFORNIA DOGS JUMPING...Hundreds Loose and Biting... "The earthquake not only put the fear of God in thousands of humans, but it also apparently threw hundreds of animals, notably dogs, into a state of frenzy. "There are hundreds of dogs on the loose," Ernest Jensen, district supervisor of the East San Fernando Valley Animal Shelter, said. Jensen said many of the animals escaped when backyard walls and fences collapsed during the killer quake. "Some of the dogs are now running in packs, hungry and frightened," Jensen said. He added that reports of dog bites have also increased and attributed the cause to the agitated conditions the animals are in because of continuing aftershocks. (Ha. He has leaped to a wrong, albeit seemingly logical, conclusion. Ted.) ...Americana, Brazil(AP) BATHERS BEWARE...Feb. 22, 1971..."Authorities have warned bathers at local reservoirs to watch out for what may be flesh-eating piranha fish. A dozen swimmers reported being bitten in a one-week period. (You see? Dogs Biting people suddenly by the people suddenly. Ted.) ...Feb. 22, 1971...pic in paper of man whose face and arm are horribly bitten...local Norfolk paper..."NOT SO GENTLE INSURRECTION"...Jethrow Midgett is a wiser commercial fisherman than he was last week. He may not catch any more fish this week, but he is likely to get fewer seal bites. Midgett displays wounds received at Rodanthe on North Carolina's Outer Banks last Friday when a seal bit him on the chin, lower lip, and left arm. The seal struck as Midgett started to pat it on the head. Midgett said he was attempting to demonstrate the animal's gentle character." (Again, you see? A normally gentle seal brutally attacks this man and chews him all up. Ted.) Also, in my Feb. 1 letter I told you that (2) "Am setting up a 'grid' today over the ENTIRE UNITED STATES, same as the one you'll read about in March '71 Saga that I set up over Norfolk last summer. What this 'grid' will do: it will cause electromagnetic (EM) havoc all over the United States...cause power blackouts...confuse radar, confuse TV signals. It will be an EM circus!" (while keeping that paragraph closely in mind, note also that I wrote to Otto Binder on Feb. 4 as follows: ...the daily movement of the pole is increasing and the number of fairly large earthquakes has increased." This could be due to the fact that they have not cut off our Saga" demonstration...i.e., as you know they started with 'small' quakes and graduated into the Peru and Pakistan horrors. This could be building into a climax, ending in a horrendous U.S. quake...which I think will occur.) === **Page: 2 of 3** 2....Are you following me so far? Just after I sent you the Feb. 1 letter...I placed the 'grid' mentally over the entire U.S. and activated it, then signaled the four huge UFO's at the corners of the earth to issue forth the sound which would drive you-know-what wild. ...Then all hell broke loose. (Mind you...I had no way of knowing all that that 'grid' would do. I just had in mind causing power blackouts everywhere and confusing radio and TV signals everywhere. But...THE SI'S OF COURSE INSERTED THE IDEA INTO MY BRAIN AND THEY KNEW WHAT IT WOULD DO! Another...formidable SI demonstration! Which, unfortunately, only a few of you will know about. 35 people are not very many.) Feb. 8, 1971...AT LEAST 100 HURT, DAMAGE HEAVY IN FLA. TORNADO...Gulf Breeze, Fla. (AP) (Article too long...but a tornado kicked the daylights out of a section of Florida. "It has to be a miracle that nobody was killed," said the Rev. Gerald Munday. Interesting thing to note...flashing lightning lit the sky like it was daytime. (Remember that, it's important, and I'll link it up later on.) ...Feb. 8, 1971...BLAST KNOCKS OUT N.Y. POWER...Radio, TV off Air... New York (AP) (Long article explains how explosion, cause unknown, knocked radio and TV stations off the air, including the Empire State Building...plus blacking out areas of New York City. Now note this...electrical power outages in two other of the city's five boroughs were also reported. However a spokesman for Consolidated Edison Co., the area's major utility, said those failures were unrelated to the explosion at the Waterside power plant on the East Side of Manhattan. (Note: Of course that U.S. 'grid' is doing all of this...and it's just a warning up! Ted.) Another newsclip on the same. "The cause of a Sunday night power blackout which left 500,000 Manhattan residents in the dark and blanked television channels in parts of four states remained unknown Monday. Teams of blue-helmeted Consolidated Edison Co. experts carried out a daylong examination of power feeds in the originally effected area without finding the source or location of the trouble." ...Feb. 9, 1971...KILLER QUAKE JOLTS LA AREA...Los Angeles (AP) (No need to go into this one. You all know about it. President Nixon called this part of California a "major disaster area." Enough said. And I was right to Otto about the "horrendous quake"...also that the U.S. would be dealt a "terrible blow" within 30 days; remember? Ted.) Now, at this point let me insert a newsclipping sent me by a friend, Bob Gray, from Berkeley, Calif....San Francisco Chronicle, Wed. Feb. 17, 1971...JOYCE HABER..."I've been culling some odd, if inevitable, tales about the disaster--or Earthquake, 1971"--as they called it on CBS-TV in their minute-by-minute coverage. For my part, I read that certain people said the sky lit up with "flashes of light" a few hours before the quake occurred. That brought to mind my own observation. I remembered rising at 4 a.m. on Feb. 9...and reflecting that it seemed as light as daybreak, which happens around 6. I can't explain that, but I promise it's true. (Note: Now note that quote above where "flashing lightning lit up the sky like it was daytime" connected with the Florida tornado...and compare the two! Ted.) ...Now things were even going to get weirder. Feb. 20, 1971...BROADCAST STATIONS GET FALSE ALERT...Washington (AP) "The nation's radio stations were erroneously alerted today that a national emergency existed... (You see, here we go again...not a blackout this time, but a SI-caused human error...still picking on radio stations...and here the SI's are telling us in their own way that a national emergency exists;) === **Page: 3 of 3** 3...Yes, the 'grid' is doing all of this! ...Feb. 21, 1971...REPAIRS PUT MASS. R.I., IN DARKNESS...Boston (UPI) Rhode Island lost all electrical power for up to three hours Saturday when a major transmission line failed...Several radio stations were knocked off the air. (Following this pattern now? Ted.) Virtually every community in southeastern Massachusetts from Brockton down to Provincetown on the tip of Cape Cod was affected, as were the cities of Middletown, Newport, and Portsmouth in southeastern Rhode Island. The explanation was that while one line was being repaired, the alternate line failed. ...Feb. 21, 1971...SEVERE WINDS POUND UTAH...Gusts Up to 88 MPH Hit Trains, Trucks, Trailers...Salt Lake City, Utah (UPI)...Hurricane-velocity winds slapped northern Utah Saturday, knocking over trees, trains, trucks and trailers, ripping off roofs and cutting power...(Note: remember that psi-force mechanisms will work in a thousand ways, to bring about a single result, if necessary, Ted.) The winds whipped out of mountain canyons with such force that 10 cars of a freight train were blown off the tracks and a dozen homes at a trailer park were rolled into a giant jumble. Power failures were wide spread. (and there was lots more about this, but you get the idea. Ted.) ...Feb. 22, 1971...TORNADOES IN SOUTH KILL 73...by the AP (over 100 tornadoes just kicked the slats out of Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama. Now note: BEFORE this occurred...I dreamed the night before it happened...clearly...that I was in a state near Texas...and was PK'ing a football game in that state...but had to go 200 miles to Dallas to get a TV set where it was not blacked out so I could work on the game play by play. Next morning, I read in the paper where this area I dreamed I was in had been steamrollered by dozens of tornadoes! You figure that one out. Ted.) And here again, power was knocked out everywhere...a different cause again...and Mississippi was called a "major disaster area" by President Nixon. To quote one newsclip, "It looked like a thousand hells" one area resident said. (Are you beginning to get some idea...of the power of the SI's now? And of the power of my mind connected with them? Ted.) ...Feb. 22, 1971...5 REPORTED DEAD IN 3-STATE BLIZZARD...by the AP... (a terrible blizzard smashed into Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa... accompanied by thunder and lightning and gusts up to 80 miles an hour in conjunction with severe floods that inundated the eastern half of the state. (I believe that President Nixon named Nebraska a "major disaster area" after this...no newsclip on it, heard it over the radio. Ted.) ...Feb. 23, 1971...N.C. CITY GUARDED...by the AP...Two persons were killed and about 60 injured late Monday afternoon when two tornadoes touched down in Fayetteville, N.C., and a rural area of Cumberland and Sampson counties about 15 miles away. Estimated damage reached several millions of dollars." ...Feb. 23, 1971...17 DEAD FROM SNOW IN 5 STATES...by the AP...A late winter storm that staggered sections of the midcontinent with 15-foot icy and snow-laden punch at the Northeastern interior today. Seventeen persons were dead as a result of the storm in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska...several communities in Oklahoma remained without electrical power..." (Now I'll tell you something interesting, contacts...THE TORNADO SEASON IS NOT EVEN HERE YET! It's too early for it. But you just had over a hundred tornadoes at once! After I activated the 'grid'. Any questions? You were all notified in advance about the 'grid' and what it would do. More than that...you couldn't want.

Owens === **Page: 2 of 4** MENSA Reply: 340 Brighton Road Norristown, Pa. 19403 A NON-PROFIT EDUCATIONAL CORPORATION CHARTERED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 50 EAST 42ND STREET, NEW YORK, N.Y. 10017 February 15, 1971 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: Ted Owens, who calls himself "PK Man", notified me during the early part of the 1970 pro football season (which just finished) that he would control five professional football teams this season, so that they could not win the coveted Super Bowl Pro Football Championship at the end of the season. He specifically said that he would work at causing injuries to key players, in order to bring this about. The five teams were the Kansas City Chiefs (who had won the Super Bowl the year previously); the New York Jets (who had won the Super Bowl the year before that); the Dallas Cowboys; the Miami Dolphins, and the Philadelphia Eagles. After Owens wrote me this the entire backfield of the New York Jets was wiped out by crippling injuries - Namath, Snell, etc. Much the same thing occurred to the Kansas City Chiefs. As the season progressed Owens kept writing reports to me on his progress. He claims to be able to use psychokinesis, or "PK" as it is called in para-psychology, to bring this about. He uses TV and radio to be in on every play of each game, sometimes working on two games simultaneously. The Chiefs and Jets, who were the heavyweight contenders at the beginning of the season, fell by the wayside as the season went on. (Owens even helped the Raiders win their games miraculously, he claims, in order to put down the Chiefs, who were in the same division.) The Eagles only won three games in the year. The Dolphins, a very tough team, survived longer until Owens eliminated them, he claims, toward the end of the season. The Cowboys should have been eliminated, Owens claims, earlier, but in two key games their op-ponents threw away the opportunities Owens gave them to win, as he explains it, and the Cowboys beat them. (In one of these two games the Cowboys were only able to score 5 points.) Then came the Super Bowl. Owens wrote to me before the game, saying that he would do his best to make them lose this all-important game. During the game Max L.

There were two "tipped" passes that ended in the arms of Colts for touchdowns, one ending with a kick that both the kicker and the holder stated "seemed" to "fade a little, then come back", lifting again into the air over the crossbars. (This from a newsclip quoting the kicker and holder.) I do not know if the claims of Owens are true about his ability to control pro football games with his mind. But I do state that the above facts are true, to the best of my knowledge. Sincerely, Max L. Fogel Max L. Fogel, Ph. D. Research Officer MLF:bjf 18th day of February 1971 Sophie P. McHenry Notary Public Notary Public, State of Florida at Large My Commission Expires August 14, 1974 === **Page: 4 of 4** COPY Feb. 22, 1971 Mr. (This is confidential. Mr. Binder's letter went to a very important man in America, and I won't reveal the man. Mr. Binder then sent a copy of his letter to me. I thought it interesting for all Contacts to read. Ted.) Dear Mr. - Ted Owens has asked me to give my qualifications as a writer, in regard to the articles you read in SAGA magazine, to indicate that they were carefully researched and written. I've been a freelance writer and reporter for some 30 years. My published work includes a dozen science books, many books of science fiction, and a hundred or more science articles for magazines. In the case of Ted Owens, he furnished me with thorough documentation, affidavits, and signed testimonies as to the PK feats he accomplished in the past ten years, as featured in those articles. He also sent me his entire set of personal diaries, which back up all of his feats as they occurred. I am quite convinced that Ted Owens does possess some amazing kind of psychokinetic powers which account for the deeds listed. I have made a thorough study of psi-phenomena in general and therefore know the field. Ted Owens, to my mind, has psi-power potential that has not yet been used fully, which have apparently been bestowed upon him by the SI's (Space Intelligences). I know it all sounds startling but facts are still facts. Science has not yet caught up to the true mysteries of the universe, in my opinion. Sincerely, Otto Binder, Studio, Friends Lake Road, Chestertown, New York. 12817 - - The Si's communicated with me this morning ... and gave me some shocking information. Because I'm the only human they can converse with ... and for other reasons known only to them ... THEY ARE GOING TO LET ME BE THE HUMAN ... TO DECIDE ... IF THEY SHOULD ALLOW THE PRESENT EARTH CIVILIZATION TO BE WIPED OUT, TO BE REPLACED WITH SOMETHING ELSE ... OR TO GET EARTH AND NATURE BACK INTO BALANCE AND. REPAIR THE PRESENT VERY BAD CIVILIZATION. Human choice is involved with the Si's ... is very important to them ... and I'm the only human they can talk to. So I'm it. Only analogy I can think of is Lot and his wife ... with Lot trying to talk "the Lord" into not destroying Sodom and Gomorrah. Owens.

Text Any textual data included in the document === Page 1 of 9 March 5, 1971..........TO ALL CONTACTS Well, folks, that's all she wrote. I mean...yesterday the court reporter I've worked for, for several years...called and told me she's quitting here and going to Georgia. That means she takes this IBM Selectric typewriter that I'm typing with, with her...takes my phone out (she put it in; paid $60 deposit)...and cuts off my money supply. Just like that.. So I thought I'd better write you one last letter, at least...and tell you what has transpired. Of course...if any of you could loan me a thousand or two, which would get me out of all this mess...or could fix me up with a used IBM Selectric (about $200)...or could send me $60 loan to keep the phone...I could stay in business as I have these past couple of years. Otherwise I'll have to drop my pattern of contacting contacts...no other choice. There's a slight ray of hope. A Texas multimillionaire called and a half-hour discussion took place. There's a possibility he might hire me, and his money would give me the base I need...to carry on, not at 1/10th of my power and ability, as I have been working...but at 10/10ths of my power and ability. Because all of my time will be my own. I asked him for the same salary a top athlete gets...less than that of Joe Namath, Wilt Chamberlain...but still substantial. (Be sure and get a copy of April Saga...Otto has saved all the biggest thoughts...for that article. And you'll learn a lot you didn't know. For positive sure.) Here's what's happened to PK Man this last month: About four weeks ago I got ill. Didn't know what it was. Didn't make much difference, because I was stone broke. The sickness slowed me down, and I didn't get much typing out. Finally, half-delirious, I went to Dr. Brock at Medical Towers in Norfolk (after receiving a letter from out of the blue from a disc-holder with some money in it...from Florida...he said the disc had upped his stock interests) had some x-rays taken...and was told I had a severe case of pneumonia. He told me to turn in to the nearest hospital for several weeks. I laughed, fingering the few bucks in my pocket...and asked him what was the alternative choice. He said go home and lie down for several weeks. And he told me to go get some prescriptions filled. I did, at the tune of $20. He cost me $10. The x-rays costs me $15. Well, I went home...notified this court reporter of my set-back...and fell into bed, with a high temperature. A week later, with money running out, I climbed out of bed and began typing again...in an effort to put something together to sustain the family. Rent, $90, was coming up; had electrical bill for $61; phone bill for $10...and all I could do was look at the bills and laugh hysterically. I made $23 that week. Yesterday the court reporter called me and said she'd had a fight with her boss...and she had resigned and was going to Georgia. That ends my job, ends the typewriter, ends the phone, ends my money supply...and leaves me only with pneumonia, and a wife who will have her baby any day now. I tell you...if it wasn't so serious...I'd have to laugh... But now...let's think, deeply, about what I'm going to tell you next. Getting away from my own personal, petty human difficulties. === Page 2 of 9 Last week the Si's contacted me...right in the middle of my pain and delirium with pneumonia...and told me quite plainly and clearly...that it would be my human choice...that would allow the present mankind to proceed, or that would allow present mankind to be "erased" and a new equation be placed on the Si's blackboard for intelligence inhabiting our earth. If I choose...present mankind...then the Si's will try to get the earth and Nature back into balance again, and work with present mankind to get it straightened out; wars stopped, etc. If my choice is to put a new equation on earth...then the Si's will allow Nature to wipe out mankind, as it is now trying to do, slowly but surely, day by day. (Air pollution, water pollution, seafood pollution, and so on.) This was an odd thing for the Si's to tell me...just at the point where I was deathly sick with pneumonia...making no money...broke (and I hadn't learned my job was gone yet, even). I mean...these human adversities just could possibly color a human's decisions, you see? I feel that the Si's are being utterly honest with me...they will do just as I instruct them, this once. (I have never instructed the Si's; they always instruct me...this is the first and only time they've given me this kind of decision to make.) All right. Keep the above in mind now. This morning I called a drugstore and read them the prescription from my doctor for penicillin...and told them to bring me over 14 capsules ($15); I'd just gotten a small loan from a buddy, so I could. Had to do without last week, cause didn't have any money. Well, the drugstore called back and said Dr. Brock would not okay it...unless I CAME BACK TO HIM AND HAD MORE X-RAYS TAKEN! Let's see...$10 for Dr. Brock; $15 for x-rays; $15 for the medicine...ha ha ha! It was to laugh. I had to pony up $25 to the doctor, just to be able to pay my $15 for the medicine. I thought this was very humorous, and called the doctor about it. He remained adamant. So...I go without any medicine now. As I write this, my chest is aching with pain. The doctor said over the phone that most people get over pneumonia in two weeks. Sure. When they are in the hospital and being tended to. I was home in bed for one week, then had to climb out and work...because I'm no doctor and make no doctor's money. I had to go downtown and get my all-important mail...by bus. Two-hour trip, while I had severe pneumonia. We have no car. We have no help. Martha is pregnant and can hardly do anything...the baby is due any day. It would be so easy at this point to make the fast decision for the Si's...I could say it in strong language, but I won't...negative, you know. But...on top of all the tough things that are happening...Martha gets some baby things from Evelyn in Miami; a few cute things from Olga in San Antonio; I get some bucks from a buddy to help out...and most of all, I remember vividly something that happened a few years ago which no humans would have happen. I took my family all around the United States in a broken car and no money, because the Si's told me to. What I learned...was that churches are hypocritical nothings, in the main (there must be exceptions...but we found none)...but THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE REAL ANGELS, scattered here and there...hard to find...but one runs across them, and discovers them. We did. Never would...if I hadn't taken that trip. Here's how it worked; we'd pull into a town (hundreds of times, now) broke, no money, no gas...and I'd go to a church and ask to work for enough money to feed my wife and three kids for one meal, and perhaps a little gas to go on with. NOT ONE CHURCH GAVE ME WORK, OR HELPED US. But we'd accidentally run onto a person...who would give us some food, and perhaps some gas. I went to this huge million-dollar church in Houston, for instance, and asked for some work. === Page 3 of 9 This was back in '63, '64, but I can remember it like it was yesterday. Well, the minister said no, he had no work. I turned and left...but outside the church a woman drove up, a member of the church, back from a picnic...came over to our dusty, dirty car and asked what we were doing...I told her what had just occurred...she took out about 200 hotdogs and like number of buns, left over from the picnic, and gave them to us, along with $20 for gas. She, in effect, was practicing the religion that the million-dollar church she belonged to...was mouthing on Sunday. We had this same thing occur, in various ways, all over the country. One Sunday we drove up to a church in the driving rain...out of gas, money, and food...and I went to the door as the minister was shaking hands with his congregation leaving the church. I asked him for some work to do, any kind of work...to get a little food and gas. He turned me down flat. Didn't have any, he said, and closed the door, leaving me out in the rain. I pushed the car down a ways to a filling station...traded a transistor radio to the owner for a little gas...then he set us all up to a hot meal, and gave us a whole tank full of gas to go on with. Wouldn't take the transistor. This was just another incident. I remember all these little things. People...here and there...who have been filled with godly, spiritual thought...when it counted. Not mouthing platitudes and doing nothing for their fellow man. I ran into this good work again in Virginia Beach, when we arrived there, broke. Of course, the Si's were bringing this all about...they were using me and mine as a test-tube experiment...to find out about humans. It puts me in mind of Lot, and Sodom and Gomorrah...when Lot kept insisting to "the Lord" (Si's) that there were really some good people around. The "Lord" said okay, find me some...and maybe I'll spare these cities. It didn't work then; but I think now, it might. You see...I'm the only human these particular intelligences can communicate with, both ways, two ways. And these particular intelligences have already demonstrated their powers...formidable powers that certainly could eliminate mankind as it now exists...if these intelligences deem it relevant and material. They evidently think, or say they think, that I am capable of making the momentous decision...of whether humans on the face of this earth...shall keep on living...or be wiped out, and some other thing be tried. (With living things that will not slaughter each other en masse; pollute the air, the water, the food; and so forth.) You probably do not believe what I am telling you. ABout this horrible decision I have to make. AND THE SI'S KNOW I'LL BE HONEST ABOUT IT. I won't pull my punches just to save my own skin, and my family. And they know it. They've trained me...to think on an international, whole-world basis...through the years. (Remember all my demonstrations involving foreign countries.) So...this being the last letter, evidently, that I'll be able to send you...it is important that you know what is going on. The question in my mind is: why did they wait to tell me that it's my choice...when I had pneumonia, and everything is collapsing around me, so to speak? They knew this had to color my decision. (It won't...because I'm aware that it might.) MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, CONTACTS...WHAT I AM TELLING YOU...WILL DECIDE YOUR OWN FATE. As well as mine. And of course, the earth. God bless you all, and keep you. Ted Owens (PK Man) Owens === Page 4 of 9 March 8, 1971 Drs. Fogel, Hynek and Sprinkle Gentlemen: IN the newspapers this morning...there was an article about a terrible drought in Texas...Asperton area. The ranchers are hiring a rainmaker there who tries to make it rain with heated briquets. Ha ha ha. I wrote them this morning, and offered to sell them my services. If they should miraculously comply...and hire me, here is what I'm going to do. First, I'll bring copious amounts of rain to Texas, and particularly that particular area. Then I'll carry the equation further...I'll get all of the ranchers together, and ask them what they need...for better crops, better living, etc. Then by activating certain psi-force mechanisms...I'll also supply all of their needs. Finally, I'll double and/or triple their crop production for them, by using psi-force. All I can do is tell you what I'm going to do...and that's all I ever could do, gentlemen. Then when it happens...you know, rather have, the answer. If they hire me...then I will keep you fully informed...on every detail of my action. Which psi-force mechanisms I'm using, and why; everything. I'll fully document it, and you'll have complete copies. If they don't hire me...well, it wouldn't be a surprise. No one has ever, yet. And it's a shame. Sincerely, Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens === Page 5 of 9 March 14, 1971 Sunday .......... TO ALL CONTACTS The court reporter, although packing up and leaving town...has not yet come by and gotten her IBM Selectric typewriter...so I'll be able to get one or more Contact letters out, before she does. You remember...not long ago I wrote you...that I was sending out PK to guard and protect helpless animals, birds, etc.? That this PK would attack those who killed the helpless animals, birds, etc., and that the animals birds, etc., thus were protected with a much more powerful force than a gun? And I asked Otto Binder, if he could, to get this word out to the world? He hasn't been able to. But here's what happened. March 14, 1971...Virginian Pilot...Grindstone, Que. (UPI) "The seals were reported spread out over a trail of scattered ice packs 100 miles long Saturday....The 60-foot Candian sealer Carmen was crushed by the shifting ice Friday and Sank in the gulf with 900 pelts aboard." Wonderful. Marvelous. Just as I told you would happen...the PK which has been issued all over the world (omniscient and omnipresent) is beginning to attack the humans...who are killing animals and other living things, who do not need them in order to eat. (And listen...these humans killing these baby seals...do not need them to eat. They're killing them...for fur coats for fat, lazy American women. And God help the ones...that are killing these baby seals. I don't give a damn...about their excuse that it is their way of making a living. From now on...it had better not be, or they won't have a living. They won't live. Today on TV I watched "American Sportsmen" which should be called "American Butcher." Bing Crosby, Phil Harris, Andy Griffith, etc., well-heeled Americans shooting and slaughtering yea-many deer, birds, etc. Uh-huh. Well, these gents, who are perfectly able to get their meat for their table at their nearby grocery store...will be punished severely for killing and hurting these innocent deer and birds. Just as I told you they would, not long ago. The PK is out. I have no mercy...with my PK attacks...for those who have no mercy...on the living things God has made. Years ago I used to say to my family, "oh, if the poor animals...deer, squirrel, rabbits, and all...could only shoot back at the dam fat wealthy humans who are going out and killing them!" Now I've got deadly PK to send forth...to help the animals. Or at least...even the score for the animals. Okay. Enough of that. Now...some of you might remember...the letter I sent to President Johnson...some years ago. I told him that I was going to end the 6-year drought on the East Coast...but that if the government did not acknowledge it when I did, and cooperate with me and the Si's, then I'd return the drought, many-fold, to the U.S., as a punishment. All right. I ended the drought (as Otto Binder described it in Saga) but the government has never acknowledged it, or cooperated with me or the Si's. So...... From this day on...I am activating drought conditions over the U.S., particularly the western half of the U.S., which will be far worse than the 6-year drought of some years ago! Ranchers in Texas recently said that the rainy season is coming on now out there...uh huh. Well, maybe. We'll see. Let's see if it does; and how the summer goes. I say drought! === Page 6 of 9 Perhaps you wonder why I am getting so rough. It's because there is so little time left...and unless I get subsidized...I won't be able to help the U.S., or the world...with my considerable powers. So I'll have to create a terrible drought...in order to be paid a sum to get rid of the drought. An amount, I might add, not as great as that paid any good athlete going into any of the pro athletic teams. Some people do not like or approve of my negative use of PK. Well, I do not like or approve of many of the negative things people are doing, either. And until the human practices are halted...Nature is never going to get back into balance with Earth. Note: Cy Berlowitz, formerly associate editor of Saga Magazine (who wrote and asked me for a disk)...has just had the following good fortune: "Dear Ted, Just a quick note to let you know that I'll be gone from SAGA by the end of this week. I've landed a job at TRUE Magazine at more money than SAGA could dream of paying. Must be the PK disk, huh?... Cy Berlowitz, True Magazine 67 W. 44th St., New York, New York. Just another of the thousands who have been helped by the charged disk. Several days ago, Thursday, March 11, 1971, I took my wife, Martha, to Norfolk General Hospital. At that time...all the power went out in that portion of the city of Norfolk. The newspapers said "VEPCO hunts for cause of blackout"...Norfolk...3/12/71...Employes of the Virginia Electric and Power Co. today were seeking the cause for a shortage in a line which resulted in a power blackout for approximately 5,000 customers in the Ghent and Edgewater areas....E. C. Baker Jr., Norfolk manager for VEPCO, said Norfolk General Hospital was affected but immediately went to its emergency electrical supply system..." Re my "grid" put over the U.S., Wed., March 10, 1971... "Louisiana Raked By High Winds"...AP...High winds whipped across the flatlands of south Louisiana late Tuesday and early today with scores of persons reported injured and homes and house trailers damaged from the Texas border to New Orleans...Winds up to 100 miles per hour were reported..." (My big earthquake in LA, and my 100 tornadoes, have not been enough. Will have to keep on persevering.) What am I persevering for? Why...for ten years I've been trying to get myself, the "missing link"...together with the SI's in Europe (as per previous writeups) in order to save this present civilization. To date I haven't been able to, because no one would help me to (takes money, and lots of it.) So I'll keep putting the pressure on pro football teams, and the rest of the country, and the govt., until some one finally does... or our country is destroyed. How's the Vegas PK coming? Well, I see Jack Entratter, pioneer hotelman behind all of Vegas, just passed away at 57. Then Sammy Davis Jr. and others marched up and down Casino strip in Vegas. Davis said "Black people and poor whites need my help." (Welfare militants). Then "Casino Plot Charged...story about Mafia captains who were caught owning a Vegas casino... just came out. And a newsclip from Bob Gray in Berkley, stating that Internal Revenue Service are about to swoop down on Vegas and hit the Casinos and figure out why they aren't getting more money. === Page 7 of 9 3 why am I getting so rough with my PK powers? Because if I don't force someone or some govt. agency to back me...then I won't be able to save present civilization as it is. Simple as that. Oh...today the Phila. 76'rs played the Atlanta Hawks...and I had it on TV. So I sharpened up my PK-on-sports-ability by holding back the red-hot, streaking 76'rs...and making them lose to the Hawks. As many of you know...I'm holding down every sports team in Philly, football, basketball, baseball and hockey...with PK. First time I've been able to get at the 76'rs on TV, from Norfolk, this season. Three or four of you...have sent me small loans. Enough to buy me three weeks of time. It took me three months to find my former job here. But at least...I've got a fighting chance now. You handful have my gratitude. Pay you back as soon as possible. I have two chances...to be able to do for the world...what needs to be done. Two millionaires in different parts of the country are thinking about possibly hiring my services. If they do...then I'll drop all other PK enterprises and projects...and concentrate on working for them to accomplish what they want...and to save the country, and perhaps civilization as it is. (I have to have 9/10ths of my energy and brainpower to do it...and only these men can turn me loose, with their financial backing, to do it.) I know you-all are hard up, just like I am. If any of you can spare $75 to help me buy a thousand new red discs to help and heal people with...send it in. I'm all out of discs. Pay you back later. A gentleman named Kralik...stockbroker...has an idea to try and help me with my work. He recently saved me, when I had pneumonia. He told me to send in my Contact list...so he could try to write everybody to set up a trust fund of some sort, to help me carry on. I wrote him and told him...it wouldn't work...you-all aren't that kind of list. (He asked me for my "list of admirers"...ha ha ha.) Well, you aren't admirers. Some of you are lawyers, some are scientists, and so forth. You are merely observing and witnessing. But...because he's trying to help me...and no one much else is (in the BIG way) I'll give him the list, and leave it to the SI's to see that it's used properly. After all, I can use all of the help I can get. And if he's sincere (and I've no reason to believe he isn't) then...thank God for Kralik. Best to you all.......... Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Virginia 23514 Owens === Page 8 of 9 March 23, 1971...TO ALL CONTACTS Dr. Sprinkle (attention: govt. agencies and scientists!) All right...this message is VITAL. The Si's communicated with me today and told me to pass on the following (and SOMEBODY had better LISTEN and get it out to the PEOPLE): (1) Again they warn that ALL ANIMALS IN THE WORLD now are armed! (Keep in mind that big seal-boat which the ice just sank after baby seals were killed). The rule is: any hunter or human who kills an animal, and does not need it for food directly...will be tracked down and destroyed himself by the PK guarding that animal. The omniscient Omnipotent PK can rightly judge. (2) POLLUTION OF THE WATERS OF THE WORLD. The Si's give mankind just 90 days...to pass this word on around the world...before they begin their own PK action. Humans will no longer be ALLOWED to foul up the rivers, streams, lakes and oceans. The Si's give humans just 90 more days to quit fouling the waters of the earth...THEN THEY WILL TURN ALL THE WATERS OF THE EARTH AGAINST ALL HUMANS...AGAINST MANKIND...AND IT WILL BE AN ALL-CUT WAR. And they remind us that we get the air we breathe from the seas and the oceans. The choice is ours to make. (3) The Si's have made a concrete decision. Remember, I managed to persuade the Si's to allow the Apollo 12 and 13 astronauts to return back to earth. The Si's had intended at that time to teach mankind a lesson by destroying the astronauts...but in deference to their only human link, myself, they softened. No more. Their warning today is loud and clear. They are now making the space around the earth, orbital space, deadly to humans. From now on any humans passing through the orbital zone or going into orbit...will be attacked by the same PK which the ancient Egyptians used to place in their tombs to attack those who opened the seal on the tombs. It is a guarantee of a tragic, violent death. If the next Apollo shot goes up...it does so after having been fairly warned by the Si's in this Contact letter. The Si's tell mankind to forget the moon...the Si's are trying to get the earth back into good condition. "Business as usual" people and politicians and the military will not like this at all. But the Si's say it is the only way. And they'll be hard about it. This applies to Americans, Russians, whatever. They say: GET YOUR EARTH BACK INTO GOOD CONDITION BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT OUTER SPACE...then after we get our earth back into balance with Nature...the Si's will allow us to make the outer space gambit. (Interesting: the Si's told me that the oceans and seas have a deep intelligence which we humans are not aware of...because of the limitations of our senses that cannot comprehend or understand.) Incidentally, see my '71 prediction letter of Jan. 14. Billy Graham has just had his operation...and Sinatra has just retired permanently (to spend all his time with family, and with "a persistent pain in his right hand." (Cancer?) I have many more things to tell you...but will have to wait until I am able, financially, to do so. Am awaiting to hear from a deal now...that could make it so...and make it possible for me to team with the Si's and Nature to make the earth and mankind healthy and at peace. In closing...the Si's, in a goodwill gesture toward our govt., warn that militants will next use rockets and mortars in a surprise attack on our White House and other key buildings around it..Viet Cong style. It will be a "symbolic" attack, like the bomb that was planted in one of the buildings a short while ago. PS Am putting fire and drought on the U.S. Ted Owens (PK MAN) Owens Ted Owens - PK Man Box 3134 CHS Norfolk, Va. 23514 === Page 9 of 9 *And I am a member of Mensa! March 31, 1971 TO ALL CONTACTS The Si's...are pouring information into my mind! After getting your new letter ready today, enclosed (dated April 2, according to Si instructions)...they contacted me mentally...and told me the following: They said...for me to somehow try to become president of the U.S: To write to Senators, key people...and get it done! I was incredulous, naturally...for many reasons. One is that I am not the type. I would not want to be President. Another reason...I hate politics...know nothing about it. At Duke, when the Dean told me to take Political Science I attended one class...then quit and refused. I couldn't care less how many seats who has what. Another reason...I know that the Si's detest and despise politicians. But then they argued with me: there would be no problem of trying to arrange a liaison between them, the Si's, and our govt. I could set it up, as President! Also, with the other-dimensional powers they have given me (which I've used and documented, remember) I would make the greatest President in history...far surpassing Lincoln (my personal favorite). They pointed out also...that my link with them...would give our country extra power for good, to bring about the many many changes necessary for this country to "get well" and get back to real values. They pointed out...that my link with them...would help this country not only cope with, but change, the countries who are now our enemies. They pointed out...that with all of my vast experience with people (I've learned 50 professions...all kinds of people in those professions) I would make a wonderful President, understanding all races, creeds, colors. (Because I've mingled with them all). * And above all...they promised to put all of their fantastic powers...into helping the U.S. become a wonderful, truly great country...based on valid, true values...instead of what now exists! In this way, they told me, if I were President of the U.S., then they could actually use the entire U.S. as a safe base...to make friends with us and guide us...instead of trying to get a small protected base at Cape Kennedy, as they have been trying to do! That's it! Know anybody who would want to run me for President? I'll tell you one thing...after listening to what the Si's say...and thinking about it...I believe that I could advance the United States at least 500 years during my brief tenure in public office in Washington. Knowing what I know...knowing who I know (Si's)...and doing what I do. Think of it! If I were President, and there was a hurricane heading for Florida...I could steer it away myself! Not pay a billion afterwards in disaster funds. Came a terrible drought in the country...I could end it myself...not pay a billion out of public taxes afterwards to aid the poor farmers. I could give the rain! Oh, before I close. Enclosed is news...the greatest break-through in UFO news. Govt. admits to finding UFO base...saw UFO's at arm's length range...states unequivocally now that they are real! First such admission. Backs up Otto Binder's articles.

TED OWENS--FLYING SAUCER MISSIONARY By Otto O. Binder 22 - [ ] SAGA === Page 3 of 9 TORNADO WINDS RIP THRU AREA For 24 years since 1947, when Kenneth Arnold sighted nine disks, everyone who believes in flying saucers has been wondering why the UFOs are here and what the occupants, if any, are up to on earth. NOW THE ANSWER IS KNOWN! It is known by courtesy of Ted Owens, the PK Man. As SAGA readers know from last year's August and September issues, Ted Owens claims that he is the "spokesman" for the SIs (Saucer or Space Intelligences) who communicate with him via two-way ESP. Ted has now made his private diaries (from 1963 to date) available to me Illustration by Gil Cohen SAGA - [x] 23 === Page 4 of 9 In one dramatic demonstration of his fantastic powers last June 24th, Ted Owens wrote to the Norfolk, Va., newspapers and radio stations (as he always does with his upcoming PK feats): "I will employ an unusual effect from another dimension (where the SIs come from) . . . a mental 'grid' apparatus that will cause weird magnetic and electromagnetic effects." On June 30th, the following headline appeared in a local paper: HALO IN SKY PUZZLES EVEN WEATHER BUREAU. This halo was observed by thousands as a peculiar "glow" in the sky at night that was not associated with the moon. It appeared for several nights, and people also reported seeing a huge UFO near or within the glow! SPECTACULAR PK FEATS OF TED OWENS 1) Announces a month in advance (March, 1966) that the SIs would end the six-year East Coast drought. 2) Warns the CIA of a "great catastrophe" within the U.S. 10 days before the great Northeastern power blackout of November 9, 1965. 3) Informs the Weather Bureau's Hurricane Center that his PK would work up three simultaneous hurricanes--with Beulah, Chloe, and Doris faithfully showing up and crunching into Florida, all on the same weekend in June, 1967. 4) Works up a lightning storm over Philadelphia on a specified night (1966), then points to a bridge and says it would be hit (by Ted's own lightning). Witnesses on a roof with him signed affidavits that a bolt struck that bridge within minutes. 5) Predicts that an SI lightning bolt would strike the Apollo 12 spacecraft--which actually happened on November 14, 1969, during launch. covering his whole fantastic contact with the SIs. They read like an odyssey into psi-land or the adventures of a new Sinbad in SI-land. And in those diaries is the answer to the most baffling question in UFOdom--why are the UFOs here on earth? Their whole plan, their mind-numbing para-science activities, and their macabre method of "training" Ted Owens for an ultimate "grand mission" have now been made clear to Ted. And he wants the world to know about it. But before we can give you this earthshaking (we mean that literally) revelation, we must first examine more of Ted's life and career as the SI's representative. First, can it possibly be true (as the previous articles revealed) that Ted not only predicts the news but makes it happen with the incredible PK (or psychokinetic) powers he claims to wield? You can judge for yourself from the following documented event in the summer of 1970, which occurred in and around Norfolk, Va., where Ted lives. Headline in the Norfolk Star-Ledger, June 16, 1970--MAY WAS UNUSUALLY DRY MONTH AND JUNE, THUS FAR, EVEN WORSE. The story pointed out that the June rainfall had been one tenth of normal. Then, it went on to say, "The dry weather is having a serious affect on area crops. . . If it receives no meaningful rain within two weeks, the corn crop will be a disaster." Now, in a letter to the editor of that newspaper, dated June 16, 1970, Ted Owens said he was going to do something about the danger to the corn crop and listed exactly what he proposed to do (italics added): 1) Make it rain here (in the Norfolk area) substantially within one week from now; 2) Keep it raining in the Norfolk-Virginia Beach area all summer long; 3) Give the area such a drenching as to be almost beyond belief; 4) Mark the storms with my personal "trademark" . . . heavy lightning attacks; 5) Bring up a hurricane from Florida to this area or near it. Brash statements? No ordinary man would make them, or hope to fulfill them, against all weather indications and patterns. Though previously he had apparently guided many hurricanes and "produced" many rain and lightning storms around the country, Ted Owens had obviously bitten off more than he could chew. His prophecies put him way out on a limb that was about to be sawed off by a big "miss"--and that could well destroy his 24 - [ ] SAGA === Page 5 of 9 ### FULFILLMENT OF PREDICTIONS MADE IN SAGA (SEPTEMBER 1970 ISSUE) BY TED OWENS --March 5, 1970: England and Europe hit by record breaking cold and snow. --March 8th: French submarine *Euridice* exploded and sank during Mediterranean storm with 60 mile-per-hour winds. --March 9th: Italian volcano comes alive and forces evacuation of town. --March 9th: Seismographs record "large earthquake" in New Hebrides Isles in the Pacific. --March 16th: Earthquakes in both Iran and Japan; many deaths reported. --March 17th: Record snowfalls reported in Kansas, Missouri, Kentucky, and Ohio. --March 23rd: Earthquake rocks Arabian Sea, causing deaths. --March 30th: Heavy quake (force seven on the Richter scale) flattened town of Gediz, Turkey.

Ted Owens was strangely unworried, however, and kept studying his newspaper each morning, until . . . June 21, 1970--TORNADO WINDS RIP THROUGH AREA AND DUMP ½ INCH OF RAIN! And, it occurred in only *five days* after Ted's promise, not one week. June 22nd--SPECTACULAR LIGHTNING STORMS OVER SOUTH NORFOLK, PLUS MORE RAIN. June 23rd--RAIN SAVES THE TRI-COUNTY CORN CROP! Ted had already fulfilled his main objective, but it didn't stop there and built up into a crescendo of rainstorms. Ted had said "drenched," remember? June 26th saw a terrific 2½ inches of rain deluge Tidewater, near the Norfolk airport. "This was unusual, even if not phenomenal," said the startled weather bureau. They were to get the phenomenal too. Almost daily thereafter, the headlines of the local papers became increasingly "stormswept"--RAIN SWAMPS LOCAL TRAFFIC . . . STORM KNOCKS OUT ELECTRICITY . . . LIGHTNING BOLT EXPLODES OIL TANK . . . ROCK 'EM SOCK 'EM THUNDERSTORM . . . HEAVY RAINS BLAMED FOR FLASH FLOOD . . . PLANES GROUNDED BY SUBMERGED AIRPORT . . . RAIN WASHES OUT GREAT AIR SHOW (Virginia Beach) . . . RIPTIDE ALARM SPANS BEACHES. The harried weather bureau became increasingly confused, with all their "scientific" forecasting shot to hell. On July 14th they said it would be "fair and warmer." But they should have consulted Ted because he was busily hurling PK power to make it rain again--and rain it did, aplenty. **A**ll right, all right! So Ted, perhaps by sheer luck, had called the shots on those cloud bursts, downpours, floods, and lightning storms. But let him bring up that Florida hurricane. So, July 22nd--FLORIDA THOUSANDS FLEE 'BECKY.' And on July 23rd, as if guided, Hurricane Becky swung up the East Coast and dumped fringe rains over the Virginia area. On that same date, the Red Cross was alerted to prepare for floods in various parts of coastal Virginia, as Becky unloaded millions of gallons of rainwater over a region already soaked to the bone. **H**ad Becky turned north of its own accord? Or had Ted's avowed storm-control powers been at work? Those who had seen Ted's previous weather predictions come true had little doubt as to the answer. Ted Owens even threw in a new gimmick not mentioned in his original storm predictions. On June 24th, Ted again wrote the newspaper and radio stations (as he always does with all his upcoming PK feats)--"I will employ an unusual effect from another dimension (where the SIs come from) . . . a mental 'grid' apparatus that will cause weird magnetic and electromagnetic effects." Headline of June 30th--HALO IN SKY PUZZLES EVEN WEATHER BUREAU. This halo was observed by thousands as a peculiar "glow" in the sky at night that was not associated with the moon. It appeared for several nights, and people also reported seeing a huge UFO near or within the glow. Then strange things began happening, such as TV programs that were suddenly cut off, followed by a sign--THIS IS NOT YOUR SET. IT IS DUE TO ATMOSPHERIC INTERFERENCE. They were slightly wrong. It was due to PK interference by Ted Owens, as he had forewarned. July 2nd saw another "weird" effect. As one headline put it--RERUN OF ECLIPSE? A singular "thundercloud" that was not a thundercloud had loomed over Norfolk and made it so dark at noon that motorists turned their headlights on and the automatic street lights flashed on. Rain poured down soon after as if (Continued on page 78) SAGA - [ ] 25 === Page 6 of 9 ### UFO MISSIONARY (Continued from page 25) from a gigantic waterfall in the sky, filling the streets with deep puddles and torrents of water. The bewildered weather forecasters kept wracking their brains for explanations such as "unexpected rain front" or "shift in winds," never knowing, or admitting, that Ted's "EM grid" was doing its stuff in high gear. Those who had regularly been notified by the Seer of the SIs--namely, all the public news media--were no longer laughing. They chewed up bushels of fingernails, staring at the latest release from Ted--"The SIs want recognition for themselves and me, their representative. If you want the storms to stop, give full publicity to my 'predictions' and how they were fulfilled to the letter." On July 23rd Ted got what he wanted in a column by Lawrence Maddry of the Norfolk *Virginia-Pilot*. It acknowledged Ted's first June 16th letter that outlined what had actually happened weatherwise, in the past five weeks. It also gave Ted's explanation for the "storm grid" the SIs had "constructed" in his mind, allowing him to hurl PK powers into the sky and lure down rain, lightning, and the wrath of nature. And soon after, weirdly, the weather slowly (you can't turn off PK that easily, says Ted) but steadily returned to normal, and the soaked residents of the Norfolk area were able to dry out. If we still want to scoffingly call this episode "dumb luck," we have to explain one uncanny thing. Why did those storms occur *only* in a restricted area largely within Virginia? And why did they concentrate heavily on Norfolk, the very target Ted originally and specifically named--in writing? How far can the badly wrenched arm of "coincidence" be twisted? The "multiple miracle" of Norfolk, as Ted calls it, is only the latest of his headline extravaganzas in which he purportedly uses PK power to create storms and other events. He is not really a prophet at *(Continued on page 80)* === Page 7 of 9 (Continued from page 78) all, looking blindly into the future. He knows his "predictions" will come true for he and the SIs make them come true. Ted is merely announcing them in advance. Ted claims to have chalked up some 225 PK feats by the middle of 1970, most of them as thoroughly documented as the Norfolk affair, in which nobody can possibly deny that he sent dozens of authoritative people his "storm warnings," blueprinting them in advance of the first rumblings. If he is just guessing, it is all-star guessing that is even more incredible than his avowed PK powers. A look at the past evidence will prove even more convincing. Highlighted in the previous SAGA articles were a series of astounding cases (see box on page 24). Ted also made two new predictions at that time that have come true. First, there would be worldwide storms, floods, earthquakes, and other natural disasters all through 1970. At the time this article was written there had already been an unprecedented series of such catastrophes, culminating in the ghastly earthquake in Peru that took 50,000 lives. (See list on page 25). Ted's second look ahead revealed that the SIs would put on the "greatest UFO wave" of saucer sightings ever known, all over the U.S. and the world, through the summer of 1970. You probably didn't read about it in your metropolitan newspapers or hear it over the newscasts but here is what John A. Keel, the world's foremost UFO researcher, reports in his publication ANOMALY--"A massive nationwide UFO flap seems to have started in late August (1970)." He goes on to state that a spectacular flap occurred in and around Arizona in early August, while sightings in New York state have "skyrocketed." And Illinois was in the midst of a "monster wave" (a rash of monster sightings) all summer. His data comes from newsclips from papers in small towns and rural areas that never made the big-city press. And of course, any sightings in metropolitan areas are simply suppressed. Why? Because the government and Air Force, by their stubborn policy of ignoring and ridiculing UFOs, have completely mesmerized the world's news media into believing they are not "news" but just notoriously repeated illusions. However, those living in small towns or rural communities still see UFO reports in their local papers, proving the UFOs have *not* vanished. In fact, judging by newsclips collected by UFOlogists, there is a genuine "wave" on. But it is ruthlessly and effectively smothered by the hypnotic "UFOs-are-myths" chant the world authorities constantly voice. For lack of room last time, the following past events that were left out will add overwhelmingly to the roster of dramatic PK feats performed by Ted Owens and the SIs: * Early 1964. Ted put the "whammy" on the New York World's Fair of 1964-65 (for forbidding any UFO exhibit) and said it would go bankrupt. It did, to the tune of $21 million. Let us make it clear, at this point, that though many of Ted's PK operations seem destructive and "negative," there is a grand purpose behind them that is the keynote to the riddle of why the UFOs are here. * In November, 1964 the Mariner 4 space probe was launched from Cape Kennedy to Mars. On December 13th, Ted wrote NASA that he was putting a "PK Light" on Mariner to follow it all the way and affect its mission in adverse ways. Mariner reached Mars on July 14, 1965 and swung around the planet as programmed. But what was entirely unprogrammed was Mariner's reappearance on the planet's other side eight minutes late. NASA scientists were utterly bewildered and shocked. After UFOs were reported over both the deep-space Goldstone tracking station in California and the Tidbinbilla facility at Canberra, Australia, all kinds of "conflicting signals" came from Mariner; it failed to shut off maneuvering systems, and it kept power circuits on that drained its batteries. In short, Mariner went "wild" and violated its built-in electronic control systems. As Ted wrote in his diary--"This is one of the most amazing PK feats I ever did." If he didn't do it, who or what did? NASA scientists never explained the unbelievable anomaly of Mariner lingering eight minutes too long behind Mars--something "impossible" in celestial mechanics. * Ted was not using only American space vehicles as sitting ducks. On March 1, 1965, Russia's Cosmos 50 satellite astoundingly burst into several hundred fragments in orbit--because Ted had sent up a "PK bomb" a week before. * On March 12, 1965, Ted notified George Clark of the CIA that he was using some "mighty unusual PK" on the tense situation at Selma, Ala., during the notorious racial conflict there over Negro voting rights. His particular targets were Sheriff Clark and Judge Thomas, both alleged to be anti-Negro. "What should develop," Ted told the CIA, "is a miraculous change of heart on the part of those (persons)." Three days later on March 15th, the *Washington Star* headlined--DRAMATIC CHANGE OF HEART. The story went on to state that Sheriff Clark of Selma had relented and decided to allow a Negro march, and that Federal Judge Daniel Holcombe Thomas of Mobile had apparently suffered a complete change-of-heart. Judge Thomas rendered a verdict that pleased even Martin Luther King and swept aside all former Alabama regulations, thereby allowing Negroes to register and vote without hindrance. One must admit that it is uncanny indeed that Ted Owens used that very phrase--"change of heart"--three days before the headlines. That is documentation hard to explain away. * May 6, 1965. The Russian Zond or Mars probe was destroyed by a PK "bomb" from Ted, predicted in his letter the day before. This was another space surprise that baffled all Soviet scientists. Instrumentation said all systems were "go." But their telemetry failed to tell of Ted's PK bomb arriving and messing everything up. * August, 1965. Ted had put a PK hex on the Gemini 5 flight, calling for a power failure, and promptly on August 22nd, its fuel cells malfunctioned. NASA authorities debated whether to bring the manned ship down and abort the mission. But the SIs communicated with Ted and said they would, on their own, return the power as a gesture of "good will" to the President of the United States. And the next day full power magically returned to the Gemini craft, although the fuel cells were still faulty according to telemetric data. Ted calls this another "on the button" feat in partnership with the SIs. * January 18, 1966. Ted warned government officials and the weather bureau that the SIs would produce record-breaking winter storms across America. The storms started almost immediately, and on January 27th the weather bureau proclaimed the "Blizzard of 1966" the worst in 33 years. By January 30th, most major cities in the north reported record-breaking cold waves, plus crippling storms of sleet and snow. * When the launch of the OAO-1 (Orbiting Astronomical Observatory) was postponed four times in April 1966, NASA's desperate excuses included high-altitude winds, fuel-valve failures, and various vexing "technical" problems. Ted Owens had a different answer--his PK working to abort this particular project. The vehicle was finally launched into a 500-mile orbit on April 8th and scientists rubbed their hands in glee. They were soon wringing their hands on April 10th, when all power abruptly shut down, and the OAO-1 went into space history as a dismal dud. They should have peeked in Ted's diary where he stated that even though his first PK force had not prevented the launch but only delayed it, his second and more powerful PK "shot" would disable the OAO completely, up in space. Ted's PK power had overcome all scientific power. Scientists were quoted as saying--"They had no idea what went wrong." If all systems were working perfectly, as they claimed, what did stop the OAO? We can surmise that Ted was home chuckling. * March, 1966. All the nation was aroused at the UFO sightings reported by coeds of Michigan State University, as well as many other witnesses. When Dr. J. Allen Hynek announced his ill-famed "marsh gas" explanation--but only at the "urging" of the Air Force--all the faithful in UFOdom were enraged. Among them was Ted Owens. In a letter dated March 26, 1966, he gave the CIA the bad news. The SIs, in retaliation at this utterly irresponsible and deceitful way of debunking UFOs, were going to "spank" the U.S. Air Force and give them a "lesson they would never forget." It would last through the year. What form this "lesson" would take soon became clear in a series of disastrous USAF plane crashes. Among the most spectacular was the "collision" of the Air Force's giant experimental SB-70A sweptwing bomber and an F-104 chase plane. Ironically, the pilot who died aboard the F-104 was Joseph Walker, (Continued on page 82) 80 - [ ] SAGA === Page 8 of 9 (Continued from page 80) famed pilot of the X-15 rocket-plane in which he had soared over 50 miles high--and where he reported and photographed flying saucers (never released by the Air Force). Heads rolled over this ghastly "accident" and the whole Air Force was shaken up. Before and after this major calamity, Ted Owens and the SIs chalked up dozens of adverse events against the Air Force--trouble launching the Gemini 9 . . . three disastrous fires at Air Force bases, including the tremendous loss of Elgin AFB in Florida, . . . serious injury to another test pilot of the experimental M2F2 craft . . . and an extraordinarily high rate of training jets falling from the sky for unknown reasons. It was a bad bad year for the Air Force, all for hoodwinking the American public. One extremely significant incident occurred at the very start of this chastisement of the USAF. On March 27th--the day after Ted wrote his "spanking" letter--a huge UFO hovered over Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio. This happens to be the Air Force's center for saucer investigations, home of Project Blue Book. * One of Ted's most remarkable "prognostications" came on October 27, 1968. Friends from Canada were visiting him and asked for some SI demonstration to come. They were in a restaurant and Ted used a napkin to draw a sketch, clearly showing that a circular area in the center of the U.S. was in "danger" from some natural catastrophe. He even drew a skull-and-crossbones within the circle to emphasize the major proportions of this coming debacle. Three weeks later on November 18th, headlines screamed--QUAKE JOLTS 20 STATES IN MIDWEST AND SOUTH! The epicenter was in southern Illinois, precisely the center of the "circle of danger" Ted had sketched. One newspaper's map of the quake area was in the shape of a jagged circle that matched Ted's exactly. How many people would dare to make such a precise prediction of a coming disaster area and delineate it so firmly, hoping for it to come true by sheer luck? Try it yourself sometime, choosing any area in the U.S. or on earth, then sit back and wait for the headlines to bear you out. You will sit a long time. It's easy to deny that Ted Owens has any supernatural powers bestowed upon him by the SIs. But then we're left holding the bag of how to explain his eerie "hits" made so consistently. Either Ted's off his trolley--or we are. * Equally baffling is the event that began in October, 1968, when Ted wrote the National Hurricane Center at Coral Gables, Fla., and said frankly that for the first time in five years he had not successfully demonstrated his "control" over hurricanes. But to make up for this lapse he would see to it that at least one more storm arose and, he added, "even if it had to come forth after the hurricane season is over." He then said his target date might be as late as February. The hurricane experts must have rolled on the floor with laughter at that one. Didn't Ted know that no hurricane had (Continued on page 84) === Page 9 of 9 (Continued from page 82) ever come that late? No, probably Ted didn't know. But why should that stop him? Headline of February 15, 1969--HUGE STORM, TORNADOES RIP FLORIDA. The weather bureau people, quoted by newspapers, tried to pass it off as something other than a full-blown hurricane, calling it merely a "severe winter storm." But when winds roared up to 90 miles per hour, they had to lamely admit that "winds in excess of 74 miles per hour are considered of hurricane force." Thus, Ted had done the impossible in meteorological terms--produced the latest hurricane ever known in the U.S. And if you think that Ted has perhaps secretly studied weather phenomena so thoroughly that he is able to simply forecast unusual storms (without actually creating them), then you'll be balked by his diary and private papers covering his entire life. Not one word about studying meteorology; he just makes his own storms. * During August, 1968, Ted and his family were invited to Maine for a two-week, all-expenses-paid vacation by a group of Maine businessmen. They were interested in Ted's "hurricane hexes," possibly seeing it as a big "cane-busting" enterprise involving the dollar sign. If Ted could make hurricanes "turn" into the coast at will, he could obviously make them turn away if he wished (which Ted had been tirelessly telling the government all along). But wanting more proof of his PK powers and his alleged contact with the all-powerful SIs, they asked Ted to have at least one UFO appear over the area in those two weeks, spectacular enough to make the local papers. Before the two weeks were over, nine flying saucers were sighted by Ted and many other witnesses, one of which received huge headlines. He had simply signalled an "SOS" to the SIs, asking them to "put up or shut up" in his behalf. Acting for Ted, the SIs certainly did put up--and the businessmen shut up. But ironically even in the face of such a startling demonstration, the business group, for some unknown reason, gave up their plan to utilize Ted's hurricane-taming powers. Just how does Ted Owens' PK power work? It is a most fascinating and complex picture. Throughout his diary are "technical" notations about using "16 units of white PK," "1,000 red units," and sometimes enormous jumps into "one million black units." Elsewhere he lists the various kinds of PK units and their specific uses. These are far too abstruse to go into, but it seems that white PK units are for protection, green units for healing, red units for creating storms, and black units for blocking anything he wants to fail. These "units" are the amount of power put into any single PK feat. Then there are the *types* of PK powers themselves--Space PK, Missile PK, Hurricane PK, Healing PK, and so on. Ted, who once did psi-experiments for Dr. J. B. Rhine at Duke University, has evidently carried on his own researches into psychokinesis far beyond the elementary Rhine tests where PK merely controls the roll of dice. If PK from the human mind can make a pair of dice come up with certain numbers (as Dr. Rhine has proved in countless "runs") why can't it affect other and bigger things? Things such as the tumultuous air-currents that make up hurricanes, or the powered flights of missiles. Apparently Ted so reasoned, and gradually developed his PK powers to range in many directions, accounting for his amazing repertoire of PK feats, most on a grand scale that would make Dr. Rhine gasp. Yet parapsychologists like Dr. Rhine have never stated there is any limit to PK power, only that they have not yet tapped them. Ted has tapped them, however, and has made a quantitative jump forward in utilizing PK power. But none of this would be possible, as he himself quickly admits, without the aid of the SIs, who specifically chose Ted Owens as their spokesman and have, Ted believes, "operated" on his brain to charge it with the enormous PK power he exhibits. Even more complicated than the PK units of power are the "PK boxes" that Ted uses. These seem to be box-like containers that Ted visualizes in his mind, that emit not only PK forces but other paranormal miracle-working powers. He lists a bewildering array of such PK boxes--Weather Control Box, Universal Mind Box, Poltergeist Box, Wisdom of the Ages Box, and, skipping far down the line, the Angel Box. This last is intriguing in context with the "change-of-heart" feat in Selma, Ala., as described earlier. Ted has a significant note in his diary for March 12, 1965: "I started to hit Selma . . . cops, Sheriff Clark, Wallace, etc. . . . with a black PK. But something told me to put in Angels . . . 100 . . . and a small magic cross on each of those people. Now I know what Jesus meant by *love your enemies!*" Ted meant that loving your enemies is not just a pious platitude but can work wonders on them that direct opposition cannot achieve. Ted works hard at his PK "spells." In his diary he often mentions being "played out" the next day, or extremely nervous and agitated, and is sometimes forced to stay home from work to recuperate. The honesty and integrity of Ted's diaries are a potent factor in backing up his claims. For instance, Ted at one time felt gnawing doubts about getting messages from the SIs, and felt crawling fears that he was going mad and conjuring up hallucinations. But the SIs expelled his doubts and fears. It is quite impressive to look over Ted's list of "PK feats accomplished" and see that many are marked as occurring in "three days," "five days," or "nine days." Some are even overnight, while others take a month or more. But the numerous close-hitting cases compel one to seek a paranormal rather than a "chance" or a "luck" explanation. One question remains. Is Ted unwittingly using pure precognition and only that? That is, does he have the power (miraculous in itself) to peer into the future and see coming events that turn out true 85 per cent of the time? The SIs and his contact with them could then be sheer mental "window dressing" out of his subconscious mind, as it somehow delves with uncanny accuracy into the future. This would mean too that all his so-called powers are imaginary--that he does not control or make hurricanes, and has never spoiled a space shot with a PK shot. He would, in short, be foreseeing those events by his purely prophetic powers, and nothing more, with his subconscious imagination supplying the rest. But, because of his overwhelming list of "hits," that would still make him the greatest seer of all time, far above Jeanne Dixon or any others today, and even dwarfing the feats of the biblical prophets or the Oracle of Delphi. Explaining a fantastic phenomenon by one even more fantastic is hardly a rational way of solving a riddle. Dr. Rhine would be the first to snort at this explanation, for his precognition experiments with ESP cards have revealed no such enormous prophetic powers in the human mind or psyche. Thus, with the precognitive theory, there is nothing to explain why Ted Owens should alone be able to read the future like a book--unless God himself has lent him divine powers. The other explanation gives us something more rational as a method--that other-dimension beings with their super-science have given Ted PK powers to perform feats he merely announces in advance. And one other strong point backs up Ted's SI-contact claims. There are flying saucers seen all around earth (unless you are a last-ditch skeptic). If the UFOs exist, then the people who fly them exist. Certainly they cannot be ordinary humans but must be far beyond us in intellectual power. Thus, there is no great assumption to make as to the very probable existence of the SIs that Ted claims to talk to. Nor does his contact by ESP--now a well-established phenomenon--in any way stretch the imagination. The pure-precognition theory is barely possible while the SI-contact explanation is more highly probable. On top of that, the SIs have a definite purpose on earth, which they revealed to Ted, that you will find shocking but absolutely believable. It is far too long to be taken up here and will be disclosed in Part II, in the next issue of this magazine. There, you will hear how Ted Owens now knows the SIs picked him as a child to be their spokesman and representative. How they have trained him for a very specific task of colossal importance. And what the mighty mission (there are no other words for it) is to be. It involves the fate of everyone on earth--man, woman, and child. It will shake you, probably frighten you, but it will also shine a light of great hope for a better world. ★ THE END Next Month: Part II--THE GREAT ANSWER TO WHY THE UFOs ARE HERE! 84 - [ ] SAGA Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 3** March 5, 1971.....TO ALL CONTACTS Well, folks, that's all she wrote. I mean...yesterday the court reporter I've worked for, for several years...called and told me she's quitting here and going to Georgia. That means she takes this IBM Selectric typewriter that I'm typing with, with her...takes my phone out (she put it in; paid $60 deposit)...and cuts off my money supply. Just like that. So I thought I'd better write you one last letter, at least...and tell you what has transpired. Of course...if any of you could loan me a thousand or two, which would get me out of all this mess...or could fix me up with a used IBM Selectric (about $200)...or could send me $60 loan to keep the phone...I could stay in business as I have these past couple of years. Otherwise I'll have to drop my pattern of contacting contacts...no other choice. There's a slight ray of hope. A Texas multimillionaire called and a half-hour discussion took place. There's a possibility he might hire me, and his money would give me the base I need...to carry on, not at 1/10th of my power and ability, as I have been working...but at 10/10ths of my power and ability. Because all of my time will be my own. I asked him for the same salary a top athlete gets...less than that of Joe Namath, Wilt Chamberlain...but still substantial. (Be sure and get a copy of April Saga...Otto has saved all the biggest thoughts...for that article. And you'll learn a lot you didn't know. For positive sure.) Here's what's happened to PK Man this last month: About four weeks ago I got ill. Didn't know what it was. Didn't make much difference, because I was stone broke. The sickness slowed me down, and I didn't get much typing out. Finally, half-delirious, I went to Dr. Brock at Medical Towers in Norfolk (after receiving a letter from out of the blue from a disc-holder with some money in it...from Florida...he said the disc had upped his stock interests); had some x-rays taken...and was told I had a severe case of pneumonia. He told me to turn in to the nearest hospital for several weeks. I laughed, fingering the few bucks in my pocket...and asked him what was the alternative choice. He said go home and lie down for several weeks. And he told me to go get some prescriptions filled. I did, at the tune of $20. He cost me $10. The x-rays costs me $15. Well, I went home...notified this court reporter of my set-back...and fell into bed, with a high temperature. A week later, with money running out, I climbed out of bed and began typing again...in an effort to put something together to sustain the family. Rent, $90, was coming up; had electrical bill for $61; phone bill for $10...and all I could do was look at the bills and laugh hysterically. I made $23 that week. Yesterday the court reporter called me and said she'd had a fight with her boss...and she had resigned and was going to Georgia. That ends my job, ends the typewriter, ends the phone, ends my money supply...and leaves me only with pneumonia, and a wife who will have her baby any day now. I tell you...if it wasn't so serious...I'd have to laugh... But now...let's think, deeply, about what I'm going to tell you next. Getting away from my own personal, petty human difficulties. === **Page: 2 of 3** Last week the SI's contacted me...right in the middle of my pain and delirium with pneumonia...and told me quite plainly and clearly...that it would be my human choice...that would allow the present mankind to proceed, or that would allow present mankind to be "erased" and placed on the SI's blackboard for intelligence inhabiting our earth. If I choose...present mankind...then the SI's will try to get the earth and Nature back into balance again, and work with present mankind to get it straightened out; wars stopped, etc. If my choice is to put a new equation on earth...then the SI's will allow Nature to do as it is now trying to do, slowly but surely, day by day. (Air pollution, water pollution, seafood pollution, and so on.) This was an odd thing for the SI's to tell me...just at the point where I was deathly sick with pneumonia...making no money...broke (and I hadn't learned my job was gone yet, even). I mean...these human adversities just being utterly honest with me...they will do just as I instruct them, this is the first and only time they've given me this kind of decision to make.) All right. Keep the above in mind now. This morning I called a drugstore and read them the prescription from my doctor for penicillin...and told them to bring me over 14 capsules ($15); I'd just gotten a small loan from a buddy, so I could. Had to do without last week, cause didn't have any money. Well, the drugstore called back and said Dr. Brock would not okay it...unless I CAME BACK TO HIM AND HAD MORE X-RAYS TAKEN! Let's see...$10 for Dr. Brock; $15 for x-rays; $15 for the medicine...ha ha ha! It was to laugh. I had to pony up $25 to the doctor, just to be able to pay my $15 for the medicine. I thought this was very humorous, and called the doctor about it. He remained adamant. So...I go without any medicine now. As I write this, my chest is aching with pain. The doctor said over the phone that most people get over pneumonia in two weeks. Sure. When they are in the hospital and being tended to. I was home in bed for one week, then had to climb out and work...because I'm no doctor and make no doctor's money. I had to go downtown and get my all-important mail...by bus. Two-hour trip, while I had severe pneumonia. We have no car. We have no help. Martha is pregnant and can hardly do anything...the baby is due any day. It would be so easy at this point to make the fast decision for the SI's...I could say it in strong language, but I won't...negative, you know. But...on top of all the tough things that are happening...Martha gets some baby things from Evelyn in Miami; a few cute things from Olga in San Antonio; I get some bucks from a buddy to help out...and most of all, I remember vividly something that happened a few years ago which no humans would have happen. I took my family all around the United States in a broken car and no money, because the SI's told me to. What I learned...was that churches are hypocritical nothings, in the main (there must be exceptions)...but THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE REAL ANGELS, scattered here and there...hard to find...but one runs across them, and discovers them. We did. Never would...if I hadn't taken that trip. Here's how it worked. We'd pull into a town (hundreds of times, now). broke, and I'd go to a church and ask to work for enough money to feed my wife and three kids for one meal, and perhaps a little gas to go on with. NOT ONE CHURCH GAVE ME WORK, OR HELPED US. But we'd accidentally run onto a person...who would give us some food, and perhaps some gas. I went to this huge million-dollar church in Houston, for instance, and asked for some work. === **Page: 3 of 3** This was back in '63, '64, but I can remember it like it was yesterday. Well, the minister said no, he had no work. I turned and left...but outside the church a woman drove up, a member of the church, back from a picnic...came over to our dusty, dirty car and asked what we were doing...I told her what had just occurred...she took out about 200 hotdogs and like number of buns, left over from the picnic, and gave them to us, along with $20 for gas. She, in effect, was practicing the religion that the million-dollar church she belonged to...was mouthing on Sunday. We had this same thing occur, in various ways, all over the country. One Sunday we drove up to a church in the driving rain...out of gas, money, and food...and I went to the door as the minister was shaking hands with his congregation leaving the church. I asked him for some work to do, any kind of work...to get a little food and gas. He turned me down flat. Didn't have any, he said, and closed the door, leaving me out in the rain. I pushed the car down a ways to a filling station...traded a transistor radio to the owner for a little gas...then he set us all up to a hot meal, and gave us a whole tank full of gas to go on with. Wouldn't take the transistor. This was just another incident. I remember all these little things. People...here and there...who have been filled with godly, spiritual thought...when it counted. Not mouthing platitudes and doing nothing for their fellow man. I ran into this good work again in Virginia Beach, when we arrived there, broke. Of course, the SI's were bringing this all about...they were using me and mine as a test-tube experiment...to find out about humans. It puts me in mind of Lot, and Sodom and Gomorrah...when Lot kept insisting to "the Lord" (SI's) that there were really some good people around. The "Lord" said okay, find me some...and maybe I'll spare these cities. It didn't work then; but I think now it might. You see...I'm the only human these particular intelligences can communicate with, both ways, two ways. And these particular intelligences have already demonstrated their powers...formidable powers that certainly could eliminate mankind as it now exists...if these intelligences deem it relevant and material. They evidently think, or say they think, that I am capable of making the momentous decision...of whether humans on the face of this earth...shall keep on living...or be wiped out, and some other living things that will not slaughter each other en masse; pollute the air, the water, the food; and so forth.) You probably do not believe what I am telling you. About this horrible decision I have to make. AND THE SI'S KNOW I'LL BE HONEST ABOUT IT. I won't pull my punches just to save my own skin, and my family. And they know it. They've trained me...to think on an international, whole-world basis...through the years. (Remember all my demonstrations involving foreign countries.) So...this being the last letter, evidently, that I'll be able to send you...it is important that you know what is going on. The question in my mind is: why did they wait to tell me that it's my choice...when I had pneumonia, and everything is collapsing around me, so to speak? They knew this had to color my decision. (It won't...because I'm aware that it might.) MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, CONTACTS...WHAT I AM TELLING YOU...I WILL DECIDE YOUR OWN FATE. As well as mine. And of course, the earth. God bless you all, and keep you. Ted Owens (PK Man) Owens Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Fogel, Hyaek and Sprinkle Gentlemen: IN the newspapers this morning...there was an article about a terrible drought in Texas...Asperton area. The ranchers are hiring a rainmaker there who tries to make it rain with heated briquets. Ha ha ha. I wrote them this morning, and offered to sell them my services. If they should miraculously comply...and hire me, here is what I'm going to do. First, I'll bring copious amounts of rain to Texas, and particularly that particular area. Then I'll carry the equation further...I'll get all of the ranchers together, and ask them what they need...for better crops, better living, etc. Then by activating certain psi-force mechanisms...I'll also supply all of their needs. Finally, I'll double and/or triple their crop production for them, by using psi-force. All I can do is tell you what I'm going to do...and that's all I ever could do, gentlemen. Then when it happens...you know, rather have, the answer. If they hire me...then I will keep you fully informed...on every detail of my action. Which psi-force mechanisms I'm using, and why; everything. I'll fully document it, and you'll have complete copies. If they don't hire me...well, it wouldn't be a surprise. No one has ever, yet. And it's a shame.

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 3** March 14, 1971 Sunday ..... TO ALL CONTACTS The court reporter, although packing up and leaving town...has not yet come by and gotten her IBM Selectric typewriter...so I'll be able to get one or more Contact letters out, before she does. You remember...not long ago I wrote you...that I was sending out PK to guard and protect helpless animals, birds, etc.? That this PK would attack those who killed the helpless animals, birds, etc., and that the animals were protected with a much more powerful force than a gun? And I asked Otto Binder, if he could, to get this word out to the world? He hasn't been able to. But here's what happened. March 14, 1971...Virginian Pilot...Grindstone, Que. (UPI) "The seals were reported spread out over a trail of scattered ice packs 100 miles long Saturday...The 60-foot Canadian sealer Carmen was crushed by the shifting ice Friday and sank in the gulf with 900 pelts aboard." Wonderful. Marvelous. Just as I told you would happen...the PK which has been issued all over the world (omniscient and omnipresent) is beginning to attack the humans...who are killing animals and other living things, who do not need them in order to eat. (And listen...these humans killing these baby seals...do not need them to eat. They're killing them...for fur coats for fat, lazy American women. And God help the ones...that are killing these baby seals. I don't give a damn...about their excuse that it is their way of making a living. From now on...it had better not be, or they won't have a living. They won't live. Today on TV I watched "American Sportsmen" which should be called "American Butcher." Bing Crosby, Phil Harris, Andy Griffith, etc., well-heeled Americans shooting and slaughtering yea-many deer, birds, etc. Uh-huh. Well, these gents, who are perfectly able to get their meat for their table at their nearby grocery store...will be punished severely for killing and hurting these innocent deer and birds. Just as I told you they would, not long ago. The PK is out. I have no mercy...with my PK attacks...for those who have no mercy...on the living things God has made. Years ago I used to say to my family, "Oh, if the poor animals...deer, squirrel, rabbits, and all...could only get at wealthy humans who are going out and killing them!" Now I've got deadly PK to send forth...to help the animals. Or at least...even the score for the animals. Okay. Enough of that. Now...some of you might remember...the letter I sent to President Johnson...some years ago. I told him that I was going to end the 6-year drought on the East Coast...but that if the government did not acknowledge it when I did, and cooperate with me and the SI's, then I'd return the drought, many-fold, to the U.S., as a punishment. All right. I ended the drought (as Otto Binder described it in Saga) but the government has never acknowledged it, or cooperated with me or the SI's. So...... From this day on...I am activating drought conditions over the U.S., particularly the western half of the U.S., which will be far worse than the 6-year drought of some years ago! Ranchers in Texas recently said that the rainy season is coming on now out there...uh huh. Well, maybe. We'll see. Let's see if it does; and how the summer goes. I say drought! === **Page: 2 of 3** Perhaps you wonder why I am getting so rough. It's because there is so little time left...and unless I get subsidized...I won't be able to help the U.S., or the world...with my considerable powers. So I'll have to create a terrible drought...in order to be paid a sum to get rid of the drought. An amount, I might add, not as great as that paid any good athlete going into any of the pro athletic teams. Some people do not like or approve of my negative use of PK. Well, I do not like or approve of many of the negative things people are doing, either. And until the human practices are halted...Nature is never going to get back into balance with Earth. Note: Cy Berlowitz, formerly associate editor of Saga Magazine (who wrote and asked me for a disk)...has just had the following good fortune: "Dear Ted, Just a quick note to let you know that I'll be gone from SAGA by the end of this week. I've landed a job at TRUE Magazine at more money than SAGA could dream of paying. Must be the PK disk, huh?... Cy Berlowitz, True Magazine 67 W. 44th St., New York, New York. Just another of the thousands who have been helped by the charged disk. Several days ago, Thursday, March 11, 1971, I took my wife, Martha, to Norfolk General Hospital. At that time...all the power went out in that portion of the city of Norfolk. The newspapers said "VEPCO hunts for cause of blackout"...Norfolk...3/12/71...Employes of the Virginia Electric and Power Co. today were seeking the cause for a shortage in a line which resulted in a power blackout for approximately 5,000 customers in the Ghent and Edgewater areas...E. C. Baker Jr., Norfolk manager for VEPCO, said Norfolk General Hospital was affected but immediately went to its emergency electrical supply system." Re my "grid" put over the U.S., Wed., March 10, 1971..."Louisiana Raked By High Winds"...AP...High winds whipped across the flatlands of south Louisiana late Tuesday and early today with scores of persons reported injured and homes and house trailers damaged from the Texas border to New Orleans...Winds up to 100 miles per hour were reported..." (My big earthquake in LA, and my 100 tornadoes, have not been enough. Will have to keep on persevering.) What am I persevering for? Why...for ten years I've been trying to get myself, the "missing link"...together with the SI's in Europe (as per previous writeups) in order to save this present civilization. To date I haven't been able to, because no one would help me to (takes money, and lots of it.) So I'll keep putting the pressure on pro football teams, and the rest of the country, and the govt., until some one finally does...or our country is destroyed. How's the Vegas PK coming? Well, I see Jack Entratter, pioneer hotelman behind all of Vegas, just passed away at 57. Then Sammy Davis Jr. and others marched up and down Casino strip in Vegas. Davis said "Black people and poor whites need my help." (Welfare militants). Then "Casino Plot Charged...story about Mafia captains who were caught owning a Vegas casino...just came out. And a newsclip from Bob Gray in Berkley, stating that Internal Revenue Service are about to swoop down on Vegas and hit the Casinos and figure out why they aren't getting more money. === **Page: 3 of 3** Why am I getting so rough with my PK powers? Because if I don't force someone or some govt. agency to back me...then I won't be able to save present civilization as it is. Simple as that. Oh...today the Phila. 76'rs played the Atlanta Hawks...and I had it on TV. So I sharpened up my PK-on-sports-ability by holding back the red-hot, streaking 76'rs...and making them lose to the Hawks. As many of you know...I'm holding down every sports team in Philly, football, basketball, baseball and hockey...with PK. First time I've been able to get at the 76'rs on TV, from Norfolk, this season. Three or four of you...have sent me small loans. Enough to buy me three weeks of time. It took me three months to find my former job here. But at least...I've got a fighting chance now. You handful have my gratitude. Pay you back as soon as possible. I have two chances...to be able to do for the world...what needs to be done. Two millionaires in different parts of the country are thinking about possibly hiring my services. If they do...then I'll drop all other PK enterprises and projects...and concentrate on working what they want...and to save the country, and perhaps civilization as it is. (I have to have 9/10ths of my energy and brainpower to do it...and only these men can turn me loose, with their financial backing, to do it.) I know you...all are hard up, just like I am. If any of you can spare $75 to help me buy a thousand new red discs to help and heal people with...send it in. I'm all out of discs. Pay you back later. A gentleman named Kralik...stockbroker...has an idea to try and help me with my work. He recently saved me, when I had pneumonia. He told me to send in my contact list...so he could try to write everybody to set up a trust fund of some sort, to help me carry on. I wrote him and told him...it wouldn't work...you-all aren't that kind of list. (He asked me for my "list of admirers"...ha ha ha.) Well, you aren't admirers. Some of you are lawyers, some are scientists, and so forth. You are merely observing and witnessing. But...because he's trying to help me...and no one much else is (in the BIG way) I'll give him the list, and leave it to the SI's to see that it's used properly. After all, I can use all of the help I can get. And if he's sincere (and I've no reason to believe he isn't) then...thank God for Kralik. Best to you all.....

Text Any textual data included in the document === **Page: 1 of 1** Dr. Sprinkle MARCH 28, 1971...TO ALL CONTACTS Attention: Govt. agencies and scientists!) All right...this message is VITAL. The Si's communicated with me today and told me to pass on the following (and somebody had better LISTEN and get it out to the PEOPLE!): (1) Again they warn that ALL ANIMALS IN THE WORLD now are armed! (keep in mind that big seal boat sank after baby seals were killed). The rule is: any hunter or human who kills an animal, and does not need it for food directly...will be tracked down and destroyed himself by the Pi. The omniscient Omnipotent Pi can rightly judge guarding that animal. The omniscient Omnipotent Pi can rightly judge guarding that animal. (2) POLLUTION OF THE WATERS OF THE WORLD. The Si's give mankind just 30 days...to pass this word on around the world...before they begin. Humans will no longer be ALLOWED to foul up the lakes and oceans. The Si's give humans just so more days to quit fouling the waters of the earth...then THEY WILL TEAR ALL THE WATERS OF THE EARTH AGAINST ALL HUMANS...AGAINST MANKIND...AND IT WILL BE AN ALL-OUT WAR. And they remind us that we get the air we breathe from the seas and the oceans. The choice is ours to make. (3) The Si's have made a concrete decision. Remember, I managed to persuade the Si's to allow the Apollo 12 and 13 astronauts to return back to earth. The Si's had intended at that time to teach mankind a lesson by destroying the astronauts...but in deference to their only human link, myself, they softened. No more. Their warning today is loud and clear. They are now making the space around the earth, orbital space, deadly to humans. From now on any humans passing through the orbital zone or going into orbit...will be attacked by the same Pi which the ancient Egyptians used to place attack those who opened the seal on the tombs. It is a guarantee of a tragic, violent death. If the next Apollo shot goes up...it does so after having been fairly warned by the Si's in this Contact letter. The Si's tell mankind to forget the moon...the Si's are trying to get the earth back into good condition. "Business as usual" people and politicians and the military will not like this at all. But the Si's say it is the only way. And GET YOUR EARTH BACK INTO GOOD CONDITION BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT OUTER SPACE...then earth back into balance with Nature...the Si's will allow us to make the outer space gambit. (Interesting: the Si's told me that they have a deep intelligence which we humans are not aware of...because of the limitations of our senses that cannot comprehend or understand.) Incidentally, see my '71 prediction letter of Jan. 14. Billy Graham has just had his operation...and Sinatra has just retired permanently (to spend all his time with family, and with "a persistent pain in his right hand." (Cancer?)) I have many more things to tell you...but will have to wait until - I am able, financially, to do so. Am awaiting to hear from a deal now...that could make it so...and make it possible for me to team with the Si's and Nature to make the earth and mankind healthy and at peace. In closing...the Si's, in a goodwill gesture toward our govt., warn that militants will next use rockets and mortars in a surprise attack on our White House and other key buildings around it. Viet Cong style. It will be a "symbolic" attack, like the bomb that was planted in one of the buildings a short while ago. Ted Owens (Pk. Man) Ted Owens - Pk.
