Mr. Jeffrey Mishlove:
I tried to telephone you tonight, but you were not there. With PK Man and the UFOs, that can be a calamity; So...I called Dr. Henry Monteith, and gave him the following information:
I believe...that the mysterious explosive sounds...around the East Coast...are the SIs work...for the simple reason that I have had the very same explosions accompanied by a flash of light like a camera flashbulb accompanying...half a dozen times in the past...in Seattle, in Maine, etc.
As of tonight...be advised...that the SIs will give a demonstration covering the east coast of the United States, perhaps the entire half of the U.S., eastern, if I understand them...as follows:
UFO appearances and phenomena.
Hurricane winds and storms.
Electromagnetic phenomena (EM).
Poltergeist phenomena.
Deadly air-space (no planes or boats will be safe for 60-90 days).
Other-dimensional effects.
All to begin...as of tonight...6:10 PM, when I called Henry Monteith when I failed to get you. Henry has a faithful record of the call.
Now...I expect all hell to break loose on the Eastern half of the U.S., especially the East Coast!
Ted Owens (PK Man)
Owens
PS...bearing in mind...that the UFOs consider a war going on between them and the U.S.
Saw tonight on TV where Hynek stated garbage is causing the strange explosive sounds...just like old times..."garbage marsh gas." Ha ha ha! Fooey on Hynek, as always. He has never changed. Poor man.

Dear Jeffrey -- it was a great pleasure to hear your voice and talk with you yesterday. After which my son and I walked to town (miles) and got your prelim investig. report. That -- is the finest Christmas present I have ever received, Jeffrey. And I can't wait until the other one you mentioned sending, arrives! The SIs, and I, want to express our deepest appreciation to you, but it goes even farther than that.
Not long ago Dr. Monteith insisted that I go to work and begin moving things around on tables with my mind. He said that if I could pull a thousand pounds, then I could pull an ounce. I took it to the SIs, and they gave me answers. They told me to tell Dr. Monteith the following: they expressly forbid me to move things on tables, because I require and must have my total psychic energy in order to progress with what they are teaching me and bringing me along. Further, they pointed out that if I had learned by now, over long long years, to pull 1,000 pounds -- then why go backward to pull an ounce! Further, they pointed out that I had already done that.-- knocked scissors off the table with my mind for Dr. Rhine and Louie and two other parapsychics long years ago, in 1946 -- and THEY DID NOT WANT ME TO GO BACKWARD THIRTY YEARS. THEY WANT ME TO KEEP MY POSITION ON THE 'PSYCHIC SPECTRUM' AND HAVE ANY SCIENTISTS WHO ARE ABLE TO, COME TO WHERE I AM, WITH MY BRAIN OF FUTURE MAN AND KNOWLEDGE OF OTHER DIMENSIONAL TECHNIQUES.
To my amazement, Jeffrey, you, a young man, a young scientist, are the ONLY scientist, including the "gray heads", to make a breakthrough and "come to where I am" parapsychologically. Rhine couldn't understand; Sprinkle couldn't grasp it; it was beyond Hynek; Dr. Fogel couldn't break through; Targ and Puthoff couldn't grasp it -- only Jeffrey Mishlove, has made it. You can be very proud, Jeffrey, of yourself and your mind -- for having the uncanny ability to understand what the SIs have done, with me and through me. No one else will understand this vital point -- except the SIs and myself -- and you can bet your bottom dollar that the SIs are VERY excited about it! (That you, alone of all the scientists in the world, have made a breakthrough in their (other-dimensional) direction.
Backing up in writing what I told you over the phone -- once the SIs are given what they have 'compelled' me for -- the base on the mountain in Oregon -- then their war against the U.S. and our govt. will come to a screeching halt. All negative mechs they have heretofore put into motion, will stop. THEN...once my kids and I ARE THERE COMFORTABLE AND SAFE AND DOING SI WORK IN THAT BASE...THEN THE SIS WILL GO TO WORK TO HELP THE UNITED STATES AND THE GOVERNMENT -- correct the western drought; help our US economy; many other things. Once they have been given what THEY insist that they have -- that base in Oregon -- and I am accorded the respect due their human link to the human race, myself -- they will not do ANYTHING to hurt or injure this country or the people in it. Nothing negative.
Please xerox A and B enclosed and make me three copies of each and shoot them right back to me, OK? Also, the SIs gave me dynamic material to tell the scientists in London last September...will type it up for Peter Maddock soon as I can, copy to you. At the time there, don't think that they understood it, or could grasp it.
Best to you, always..........

In Sept '74 in London, Peter Murdoch told me that first they'd invited Uri Geller... but he wanted a bundle. Their second choice as top psychic to be invited was me, PK Man. Perhaps Bernstein would like to mention that.

For years I have been pursuing the UFO phenomena in my own manner, and sending materials on to you, with the idea that perhaps some of it would have some value to you pursuant to your own interest in said phenomena.
With the exception of three more rather important sets which are already being xeroxd for you...I am stopping the above practice completely...that is, sending my findings to scientists. I shall continue, of course, to work for and with my UFOs, but will keep my findings to myself. To me, at least, they have a great deal of value. (Informational value).
C'est finis.

Dr. Hynek

I have received an important piece of information...from a scientist, no less. If this information is correct, then it clears up something that has puzzled me for several years.
The information from the scientist (who shall remain anonymous, of course) is that both of you "talked about you, Ted, like you were a dog."
I received additional information from the same source stating that Drs. Targ and Puthoff, Dr. Max Fogel, and other scientists...treated me with respect. No bad-mouthing there.
If the above information is correct...then it explains why...at least a dozen times during the past few years...when I have been on the verge of getting some really big break in my work, with important people...and supplied those people with the names of six scientists who have been receiving my documentation over the years...and they obviously checked with the six scientists...then I was dropped like a hot rock. Since I knew that my work is quite valid and the documentation good, and knew that my Mensa mind is quite good...then I also knew that someone, somewhere, was hamstringing me.
If the above information is false, then I must apologize for the misinformation that I have received, and for this letter. Please do let me know if you are innocent of what the scientist alleges, all right? If you do so, then I shall know that you place a value on my material, and shall continue to send it. If I do not hear from you by Christmas...then I shall know that the charges are accurate... and shall discontinue sending you my unique documentation, since it obviously would have no value to you under those circumstances. *
It is my hope that you two have not been performing in the above manner...because if so, then you have been, in effect, suppressing me and my work with my UFO connection...thereby setting back severely the hopes of the scientific community to gain greater understanding of the UFO community and how it functions, within a viable temporal framework for all concerned.

To Whom It May Concern
I, Ted Owens, assign to Mr. George Weiss, 21 Perrin's Walk, Hampstead, London, England, N.W.3, option on copyrights of correspondence, including all signed affidavits, from the beginning of my work. The aforementioned correspondence and affidavits remain my own property, however, for copyright purposes and inclusion in my own books and writings in time to come. This agreement is contingent upon my receiving the full sum of three thousand dollars ($3,000.00) by the date of November 15, 1977. In the event I do not receive the full sum of $3,000.00 by November 15, 1977, then this agreement will be considered null and void and cancelled.

*and files relating to my communications with the space intelligents, including all signed affidavits thereof.
----------
To my scientist contacts (both friendly and unfriendly... my friend, Dr. Monteith, filled me in re your comments.) Pardon this handwriting but Henry (Dr. Monteith) carried my typewriter and Nordemende radio out of my home some time ago to get them repaired for me... so meanwhile, if I can't type, I can't communicate.
Now, see the letter above.
George Weiss called me Oct. 18, 1977, long distance from Ireland. He talked for about an hour, requesting I send him the above "copyright of correspondence" in return for a fee of $3,000 (which I could use desperately at this point.) I agreed and he dictated it word by word over the phone at that time. I went to the Post Office and mailed it to him at his London, England, address, as directed.
In the following week I made financial commitments based
=== Page 17 of 26
2. on George's promise: "Ted, send me this document. You are my friend and you can trust me to send you the money. Have I ever lied to you?"
No, George had never lied to me. He had promised, previous to the 1977 Parascience Conference in London, England, to which I had been invited to lecture, in the company of scientists lecturing) that he would get me over for it - since I had no funds for it. To my amazement he did indeed pay my way over there and back for the Parascience Conference to lecture, and even arranged my stay at a first-class hotel. So I had no reason to doubt George's word with regard to this $3,000 promise.
But around the first of November George called; said he had received the document; but could not pay me for it. This was a stunning blow, because I had made solid financial commitments, based on George's word. I told him that if the $3,000 did not arrive, I would clobber England... especially London... and create havoc and chaos over there. I told him that my SIs were irked anyway because they had ended the terrible drought in England (I wrote the Queen that I would cause it in advance of the fact - you have that file) - yet she never did thank the SIs and me. And I hung up on George in great anger. I telepathed to my SIs and explained the matter to them... they said they would put the matter in balance and teach the English Queen some respect for the SIs and me.
What follows... is the action that my "UFO connection" has taken.

# Five Die As Firemen Still Strike
LONDON (UPI) -- Four children and a 47-year-old invalid died in fires in Northern Ireland and Scotland Thursday as inexperienced soldiers with outdated equipment struggled to fill in for the nation's 35,000 striking firefighters.
Approximately two dozen soldiers were injured fighting 41 fires across Britain Thursday -- the fourth day of the walkout. Most were overcome by smoke.
"The lads are getting very tired and we are worried that exhaustion will lead to mistakes and someone getting killed," said one army officer.
There were fears the situation could worsen today, when 600 senior fire officers, who have been advising the soldiers, decide whether to join the strike for a 30 per cent pay hike.
Nine persons have died in fires since the strike began, including the five deaths reported Thursday.
Choking troops had to abandon a burning $125 million power station east of London Wednesday when they were overcome by smoke.
Striking firefighters at a nearby stationhouse refused appeals for breathing devices and foam equipment and officials said the facility would be out of action for nine or 10 months and repairs would cost millions of dollars.
Don Bates, general secretary of the Retained Firefighters Union, Thursday charged that picketing firefighters had broken into fire stations during the night and turned in false alarms to call in non-striking, parttime firemen.
Authorities disconnected telephone lines to London's 114 fire stations in response to reports the men were using them to coordinate demonstrations and picketing.
A boy and his 10-month-old sister died in Belfast Thursday morning when soldiers were unable to fend off flames and flying glass to reach them. Two more children died at a fire at their home in Banbridge, Northern Ireland.
A 47-year-old invalid died in Scotland when police and soldiers were unable to get to her through heavy smoke.
The troops have fought 121 blazes in London since Monday, but have been hampered by lack of training and outmoded equipment.
The strikers are demanding a 30 per cent wage increase from their current $118 a week. The government has refused to budge from its 10 per cent ceiling on raises.
More talks between union leaders and employers were scheduled for today.
DEAR TED,
SORRY MY FRIEND, BUT AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME, I AM UNABLE TO PERSUADE ANYONE TO PART WITH ANY MONEY. HOWEVER I AM TRYING VERY HARD AND HOPEFULLY IN THE NEAR FUTURE THE SITUATION WILL CHANGE. TED I KNOW THAT YOU'RE ANGRY BUT PLEASE TRY TO BE A LITTLE PATIENT, HEAVEN KNOWS I'M EQUALLY DISAPPOINTED.
WHAT COULD INFLUENCE EVENTS ENORMOUSLY WOULD BE MY BEING IN POSSESSION OF A COPY OF YOUR FILES WHICH DOCUMENT YOUR ADVENTURES IN FRANCE, SCOTLAND, AND SPANISH AS WELL AS ANY MORE RECENT MATERIAL. TED PLEASE TRUST ME AND TRY TO BELIEVE THAT I HAVE YOUR BEST INTERESTS AT HEART. O.K. THE BALL IS NOW IN YOUR COURT. HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON.
LOTS OF LOVE YOUR FRIEND GEORGE.

Re: UFO strikes at Britain.
Dear George:
on your word and promise of $3,000, in return for the document I sent at your request... I made irrevocable financial commitments. Because of the past, I did not dream you would renige (sp.) on your promise.
So when you called and went down on your word... my SIs went into action against England on their own. I told you they would, on the phone. Now you've had millions of homes' power blacked out; hurricane winds; floods; and strike along with hundreds of fires... and it will get worse. (The SIs were particularly displeased because Queen Elizabeth ignored my ending the English drought.)
If I receive the promised $3,000 soon, I will send you, on loan, all the files I sent to Colin Wilson.

# Queen Target Of Egg Toss
LONDON (AP) -- A man hurled eggs at Queen Elizabeth II when she arrived at London's Royal Albert Hall to attend a memorial for the dead of two world wars.
She was not hit, but one of the eggs splattered on the rear window of her Rolls Royce about a foot from her face.
Two others hit policemen.
Police dived into the crowd watching the queen's arrival and arrested a man. Later they said they had charged 42-year-old Bernard Morgan, unemployed, with threatening behavior and causing criminal damage to police uniforms. They said he will appear in court Monday.

# Fatal Storms Lash Northern Europe
London
Strong winds, rain, snow and heavy seas pummeled northern Europe yesterday, causing widespread flooding and forcing the crews of two storm-battered vessels into lifeboats.
Authorities said the storm killed at least four Britons, and two French yachtsmen were feared drowned.
The dead included three persons killed in road accidents and a fourth who died when a 4000-ton container ship sank in the wind-whipped North Sea.
An international rescue fleet plucked 26 British crewmen and three Danish truck drivers from lifeboats in the North Sea after their vessel, the British-owned container ship Hero, sank in the storm while en route from Denmark to Britain. The Danish naval command said one crewman died in the rescue.
West German and Canadian helicopters took part in the operation and the survivors were transferred to ships in the area, including the Canadian destroyer Huron that launched a helicopter for the rescue.

# British Navy Fighting Fires During Strike
LONDON (UPI) -- Royal navy sailors Saturday joined exhausted army and air force troops Saturday in fighting fires as Britain's firefighters strike neared the end of its first week.
An 85-year-old woman died Saturday morning in a fire at her home in Hull, northeast of London, to become the 16th casualty of the week. But police said that her death -- like the others -- could not be attributed directly to the strike.
The firefighters are asking pay increases of 30 per cent over their current salary of $118 a week. The government has countered with an offer of 10 per cent pay hikes.
More than 400 royal navy sailors went into service to assist the 9,500 army, air force and marine personnel on fire duty. Like the specially trained air force crews, some of the sailors are equipped with their own firefighters tools and special breathing apparatus.
The government said amateur firefighters had been called to more than 2,300 fires since the firefighters walked off the job Monday. It said 70 soldiers have been injured while on emergency duty.
Army sources in Northern Ireland said Saturday they feared the provisional Irish Republican Army was stepping up its campaign of fire-bombings as the strike neared the end of its first week.

# Wildcat Strikes by British Power Workers
Albuq. Journal 11/5/77
# Darken Much of Nation
LONDON (AP) -- Buses lurched through darkened Trafalgar Square as lights went out in much of Britain Friday in a wildcat go-slow strike by power workers.
Electricity was shut off to millions of homes and offices on a chaotic day of rotated power cuts -- often without warning.
Rush-hour commuters heading for their trains at London's Charing Cross Station formed long chains behind those wise enough to bring flashlights to negotiate their way.
At least one death was linked to the disruption as cuts hit different parts of the country for up to three hours at a time.
An 80-year-old woman, Mrs. Doris Yates, was burned to death as she tried to keep warm during a blackout by using a portable gas heater which exploded, fire officials and neighbors said. She had borrowed the heater when her electric heat was shut off.
Elsewhere, Britons ate cold meals by candlelight, hospitals postponed non-essential operations, and roads were snarled by the sudden failure of traffic signals. Health authorities made special arrangements for kidney patients to use generator power for their dialysis units.
British soccer teams rescheduled their Saturday matches for earlier daylight hours to avoid floodlight outages.
In defiance of instructions from their own unions and appeals from the government, leaders of the unofficial strike said they were ready to "flatten the country" by shutting down all power stations if management carried out a threat to stop their pay.
The strikers appeared more conciliatory at an evening news conference, when one leader said he hoped "a solution could be found soon. We are looking for a mediator to try to resolve our grievance."
The government's National Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service said it would not intervene and told the strikers they had to use normal union channels. This route appeared blocked because the unions have condemned the wildcat slow-downs.
The strikers from four different unions -- engineering workers, electricians, transport, and municipal -- are seeking travel allowances, higher shift pay and concessionary prices for their own home electricity.
Their go-slow action began to bite on Wednesday and by Friday was affecting 80 of the country's 137 power stations. The strikers are mostly maintenance men and coal-shovellers, and the majority of the nation's 90,000 power workers were not involved, according to the Central Electricity Generating Board which runs the country's state-owned electricity network.
The power cuts were ordered by the Electricity Board because of a backlog of maintenance work at power plants, officials said.
British Rail, the nationwide passenger train service, kept most trains rolling by drawing power from areas not affected by cuts. But local outages affected signalling equipment and many commuters suffered long delays. Train departures called train departures through bullhorns at Charing Cross station, just off Trafalgar Square.
London subway trains ran normally on their own power generators, London Transport said.

# British Firefighter Strike Nearing
LONDON (UPI) -- British firefighters Saturday spent their final hours before striking by rescuing flood victims along the coast and the government appealed to them to reconsider a decision to walk off the job Monday.
Tom Ham, chairman of the Greater London Council's fire committee, appealed to Londoners to keep calm.
"The strike seems certain to go ahead and we want to keep the risk to life and property as small as possible," Ham said.
Newspapers and radio stations put out a list of precautions for households and emergency telephone numbers for use during the strike.
Winds of up to 92 mph and driving rain caused havoc across a wide area of Britain and the fire brigades turned out to help people from automobiles, buses and houses in flooded lowlands.

Strike Jolts Great Britain
LONDON (UPI) - Parliament called an emergency session Tuesday to discuss the strike by 35,000 firefighters. Army troops and volunteers battled hundreds of blazes and Scotland Yard launched a secret plan to trap false alarm callers.
One group of striking firefighters expressed fear they would be fired for responding to an emergency call to help evacuate a flaming hospital.
The London Fire Brigade Headquarters received 255 emergency calls during the strike's first 24 hours, slightly less than normal for a weekday. Many were false alarms.

# British Firefighters Watch Plant Burn
Compiled From Journal Wires
LONDON - Striking British firemen refused to help inexperienced army firefighters battle a raging blaze Wednesday in a $125 million power station east of London. It was the worst fire in the three-day-old walkout for more pay.
The biggest blaze since Britain's 35,000 firefighters went on strike Monday roared unchecked, forcing scores of people from their homes in Tilbury, about 30 miles outside London on the River Thames.
A 15-year-old girl trapped in her burning farmhouse in Northern Ireland and a 48-year-old man smothered in a tenement fire in Glasgow, Scotland, were the fifth and sixth persons to die since the beginning of the strike, Britain's first nationwide walkout.
The unprecedented strike by virtually all of Britain's full-time firemen turned nasty as strikers squabbled over whether they should aid the soldiers or remain on the picket lines.
Some striking firemen abandoned the picket lines to join army troops at an early morning blaze in a London medical school building. But they were heckled and photographed by other strikers who refused to help.
"We have a fight on our hands, and we must see that our people don't stab us in the back," one angry striker said.
The chief fire officer for Essex County telephoned several fire stations near Tilbert when flames quickly engulfed the 1,200-megawatt, coal-burning power plant.
"I asked them to attend with breathing apparatus, but they refused," said Chief Fire Officer Roy Barnes.
Three building employes were overcome by thick, acrid smoke that billowed from the building. The soldiers, using 1950-vintage fire tenders, had to withdraw and let the fire burn itself out. Officials said there was severe damage and the plant was in danger of collapsing.
The military has not taken modern equipment from fire stations because the Labor government hopes to avoid a

picket line confrontation. The soldiers also have been plagued by firebugs, hoaxes and "some idiot with a transmitter" who is jamming communications, authorities say.
The striking firemen, members of the Fire Brigades Union, abandoned picket lines three times Tuesday to fight several blazes, including a smoky fire inside a London hospital.
The firemen went on strike 9 a.m. Monday over a pay dispute. They argue their average weekly salary of $115 is not enough to make ends meet in inflation-ridden Britain. But Home Secretary Merlyn Rees has said the firemen would not be exempted from anti-inflationary pay guidelines that allow for raises of no more than 10 per cent.
About 30 firemen's wives from East London and adjoining Essex County marched through a market place in Romford Wednesday and told passers-by they were fed up with accepting cash handouts from relatives. Some pedestrians clapped and drivers tooted their horns in support.
"All we want is a livable wage for our men who do a difficult, dangerous and often agonizing job," said Mrs Susan Rush, 24, one of the march organizers. Her husband works at Romford fire station.
Another marcher, Mrs. Maggie Baran, 25, said she earned more as a telephone operator than her 31-year-old fireman husband, Stefan.

# Babysitter And Hope
Entertainer Bob Hope chats with Britain's Queen Elizabeth after a variety show at London's Palladium honoring her silver jubilee. Hope teased the queen about becoming a grandmother and congratulated her on her new title, "royal babysitter," after the birth of a son to her daughter, Princess Anne.
Scientists
The above is one of the primary reasons for this file... which entails the SI's causing chaos in Britain. They, the SI's, were deeply irked because my work with them ended the terrible drought in Britain in 1976 (see that file) yet the Queen did not meet me or greet me for it (see my "before and after" letters to the Queen in the above file)... yet she, and Britain, will honor show biz entertainers. Thus the present punishment from the UFOs for Britain. The SI's spank slow learners and bad children.

# British Viewers Receive a Scare From Eerie Voice
WINCHESTER, England (AP) -- "All your weapons of evil must be destroyed," said the deep voice to thousands of television viewers in southern England Saturday night.
The startling interruption prompted hundreds of phone calls to police and Southern Television studios. They launched an immediate investigation to track down a suspected pirate transmitter.
Unlike the famous "War of the Worlds" radio broadcast in America in 1938 that had thousands of listeners believing Martians had landed on Earth, this hoax was not part of the station's program.
The six-minute message, said by the speaker to come from the Intergalactic Assn., began shortly after 5 p.m., breaking into a news program. There was no visual signal.
"This is the voice of Asteron," the speaker began, "you have only a short time to learn to live together in peace."
A policeman said, "Most people had taken it quite seriously. They were frightened and generally scared. We had to send a police car round to calm down one woman."
"We don't know what the source of it was or how it got on the air," said a spokesman for the independent television station in London. He said it had been broadcast in only a section of the country south of London and believed it was the first incident of its kind in Britain.
"My little girl, Donna, was frightened and started screaming," said Janet Stewart of Basingstoke, about 50 miles southwest of London. "I'm not easily frightened, but at the end I was shaking like a leaf."
Scientists... a strange coincidence! While my SIs (UFOs) are clobbering Britain and causing eggs to be thrown at the Queen... this happens.

# Two Die in England As Troops Fight Fires
LONDON (UPI) -- Fires claimed two more lives Thursday as British troops battled some of the biggest blazes of the 11-day firefighters' strike. The government said it would call up members of the Marine Band to bolster the beleaguered soldiers.
In Northern Ireland, an overnight firebomb blitz touched off seven blazes. Officials blamed the Irish Republican Army.
Strikers raced from the picket line in Chorley, 206 miles northwest of London, to aid soldiers fighting a fire in a private home. But they were unable to save its elderly female occupant because of the thick smoke, police said.
At Seaforth near Liverpool an elderly man was found dead after a blaze in a house.
Thirty people were evacuated from a retirement home in Newcastle when a fire broke out early Thursday. Troops using six "green goddess" fire trucks from World War II brought the blaze under control, but many of the elderly residents were hospitalized for smoke inhalation.
The Home Office said 22 people have died in fires since the 35,000 firefighters walked out to back demands for a 30 per cent pay raise. They currently earn $118 a week.
More than 100 troops and 17 fire engines were called in overnight to fight London's biggest blaze since the soldiers were drafted to firefighting duty. The fire gutted a textile and paper factory in Bermondsey.
Cleveland County soldiers tackled their biggest blaze to date when a timer yard at Domanstown in northeast Britain caught fire. Six engines finally controlled the flames, but the building and adjoining offices were badly damaged, police said.
The government announced Thursday it was calling up 165 Marine bandsmen to bolster the ranks of the 9,500 troops on emergency fire duty. The reinforcements from three Royal Marine bands were scheduled to join troops in the West Midlands and the Strathclyde region, military spokesman said.
In Northern Ireland, a series of cassette-sized bombs started a massive fire in a Londonderry lumberyard, and three more firebombs were planted in a local pub.

# British Firemen, Families March To Press Demands
LONDON (AP) -- Ten thousand striking firemen, their wives, children and supporters, marched through the center of London Saturday to press their demands for a 30 per cent pay raise.
As they marched, the toll of fire-related deaths since the strike began Nov. 14 rose to 24 when a young man was burned to death in an apartment fire in London's Covent Garden district, police said.
Authorities said none of the fire-related deaths during the strike could be blamed on the firemen's walkout, since they would have perished before firefighters arrived.
Fire deaths during the strike have averaged two per day. Fire deaths during nonstrike periods average 2.68 per day, but they have dropped during the strike because people are exercising more care to prevent fires, officials said.
An arsonist struck London's big Middlesex Hospital for the sixth time in a week, defying tight security to set a blaze in a bathroom of the nurses' home adjacent to the hospital. Men on special 24-hour patrol doused the flames. There were no injuries.
Firemen from all parts of the country, including Scotland, joined the march.
Chanting "More pay!" they went first to Prime Minister James Callaghan's residence to deliver a petition signed by half a million supporters.
It asked the Labor government to set aside its 10 per cent wage guidelines and meet the firemen's demands for a 30 per cent increase over their current average of $115 for a 48-hour work week.
The government has rejected the wage demands, refusing to make an exception to its anti-inflation pay policy.
About 14,000 troops, backed by air force and navy specialists, have been mobilized to fight the fires across Britain since the strike began.
The Fire Brigades Union, claiming strike support is hardening, said senior fire officers in London are now joining the walkout.
"In London, more than half the officers have joined the union and are actively supporting the strike. They are not assisting the army at any fires," claimed Trevor Jones, a regional union official.
Officers had earlier been coordinating troop movements as fires were reported in the city.
Jones also said the public was being "very generous" to strikers, contributing $36,000 to a strike fund.
In Birmingham, Britain's second-largest city, about 1,200 civil servants joined firemen in a march through the city center for a rally to support of the firemen's strike and to press the government to restore cuts in public spending.
There was also a mass rally in Aberdeen, Scotland, attended by striking firemen from throughout Scotland.

# Britain's fire losses mount
LONDON (AP) -- Tension and destruction mounted today in Britain's four-day-old firemen's strike as militants tried to prevent hastily trained soldiers from fighting blazes.
The Home Office reported 12 fire-related deaths, including five children in Northern Ireland yesterday and today.
Tempers flared during a London power station blaze yesterday when non-striking senior fire officers commandeered a foam engine from a nearby firehouse.
The strikers took the truck back, but troops later moved in and drove it away.
Strikers picketed some of the army's emergency fire stations to stop senior fire officers, who are acting as advisers to the soldiers, from going in.
A team of part-time reserve firemen was kicked and spat upon when it answered one call. Militants also sabotaged some of their own trucks yesterday and jammed station doors to prevent troops from taking the equipment.
The Greater London Council, the capital's governing body, said it blanked out a strikers' pirate radio network in retaliation for earlier jamming of a key channel linking an emergency control center with mobile firefighting units.
The council said it also cut off telephones at striker-held firehouses.
A Defense Ministry official said the army's 10,000 rookie firemen, who went into action when the strike began Monday, were getting "very tired." Major fires across the country taxed their endurance.
The mounting toll of destruction highlighted the soldiers' lack of modern equipment and firefighting skill. Legislators chastised the government for "exposing the soldiers to risk by not providing them with adequate equipment."
The soldiers, backed by part-time reserve firemen and volunteer groups with buckets and garden hoses, are using 25-year-old civil defense fire trucks brought out of mothballs. Most of the sophisticated equipment used by the 33,000 full-time firemen is locked up in their stations.
The firemen, making an average $115 a week, want a 30 percent pay increase. But the government refuses to back off from its counter-inflationary curbs limiting increases to 10 percent.

Mr. Jeffrey Mishlove:
I tried to telephone you tonight, but you were not there. With PK Man and the UFOs, that can be a calamity; So...I called Dr. Henry Monteith, and gave him the following information:
I believe...that the mysterious explosive sounds...around the East Coast...are the SIs work...for the simple reason that I have had the very same explosions accompanied by a flash of light like a camera flashbulb accompanying...half a dozen times in the past...in Seattle, in Maine, etc.
As of tonight...be advised...that the SIs will give a demonstration covering the east coast of the United States, perhaps the entire half of the U.S., eastern, if I understand them...as follows:
UFO appearances and phenomena.
Hurricane winds and storms.
Electromagnetic phenomena (EM).
Poltergeist phenomena.
Deadly air-space (no planes or boats will be safe for 60-90 days).
Other-dimensional effects.
All to begin...as of tonight...6:10 PM, when I called Henry Monteith when I failed to get you. Henry has a faithful record of the call.
Now...I expect all hell to break loose on the Eastern half of the U.S., especially the East Coast!
Ted Owens (PK Man)

PS...bearing in mind...that the UFOs consider a war going on between them and the U.S.
Saw tonight on TV where Hynek stated garbage is causing the strange explosive sounds...just like old times..."garbage marsh gas." Ha ha ha! Fooey on Hynek, as always. He has never changed. Poor man.

Dear Jeffrey -- it was a great pleasure to hear your voice and talk with you yesterday. After which my son and I walked to town (miles) and got your prelim investig. report. That -- is the finest Christmas present I have ever received, Jeffrey. And I can't wait until the other one you mentioned sending, arrives! The SIs, and I, want to express our deepest appreciation to you, but it goes even farther than that.
Not long ago Dr. Monteith insisted that I go to work and begin moving things around on tables with my mind. He said that if I could pull a thousand pounds, then I could pull an ounce. I took it to the SIs, and they gave me answers. They told me to tell Dr. Monteith the following: they expressly forbid me to move things on tables, because I require and must have my total psychic energy in order to progress with what they are teaching me and bringing me along. Further, they pointed out that if I had learned by now, over long long years, to pull 1,000 pounds -- then why go backward to pull an ounce! Further, they pointed out that I had already done that.-- knocked scissors off the table with my mind for Dr. Rhine and Louie and two other parapsychics long years ago, in 1946 -- and THEY DID NOT WANT ME TO GO BACKWARD THIRTY YEARS. THEY WANT ME TO KEEP MY POSITION ON THE 'PSYCHIC SPECTRUM' AND HAVE ANY SCIENTISTS WHO ARE ABLE TO, COME TO WHERE I AM, WITH MY BRAIN OF FUTURE MAN AND KNOWLEDGE OF OTHER DIMENSIONAL TECHNIQUES.
To my amazement, Jeffrey, you, a young man, a young scientist, are the ONLY scientist, including the "gray heads", to make a breakthrough and "come to where I am" parapsychologically. Rhine couldn't understand; Sprinkle couldn't grasp it; it was beyond Hynek; Dr. Fogel couldn't break through; Targ and Puthoff couldn't grasp it -- only Jeffrey Mishlove, has made it. You can be very proud, Jeffrey, of yourself and your mind -- for having the uncanny ability to understand what the SIs have done, with me and through me. No one else will understand this vital point -- except the SIs and myself -- and you can bet your bottom dollar that the SIs are VERY excited about it! (That you, alone of all the scientists in the world, have made a breakthrough in their (other-dimensional) direction.
Backing up in writing what I told you over the phone -- once the SIs are given what they have 'compelled' me for -- the base on the mountain in Oregon -- then their war against the U.S. and our govt. will come to a screeching halt. All negative mechs they have heretofore put into motion, will stop. THEN...once my kids and I ARE THERE COMFORTABLE AND SAFE AND DOING SI WORK IN THAT BASE...THEN THE SIS WILL GO TO WORK TO HELP THE UNITED STATES AND THE GOVERNMENT -- correct the western drought; help our US economy; many other things. Once they have been given what THEY insist that they have -- that base in Oregon -- and I am accorded the respect due their human link to the human race, myself -- they will not do ANYTHING to hurt or injure this country or the people in it. Nothing negative.
Please xerox A and B enclosed and make me three copies of each and shoot them right back to me, OK? Also, the SIs gave me dynamic material to tell the scientists in London last September...will type it up for Peter Maddock soon as I can, copy to you. At the time there, don't think that they understood it, or could grasp it.
Best to you, always..........

I have received an important piece of information...from a scientist, no less. If this information is correct, then it clears up something that has puzzled me for several years.
The information from the scientist (who shall remain anonymous, of course) is that both of you "talked about you, Ted, like you were a dog."
I received additional information from the same source stating that Drs. Targ and Puthoff, Dr. Max Fogel, and other scientists...treated me with respect. No bad-mouthing there.
If the above information is correct...then it explains why...at least a dozen times during the past few years...when I have been on the verge of getting some really big break in my work, with important people...and supplied those people with the names of six scientists who have been receiving my documentation over the years...and they obviously checked with the six scientists...then I was dropped like a hot rock. Since I knew that my work is quite valid and the documentation good, and knew that my Mensa mind is quite good...then I also knew that someone, somewhere, was hamstringing me.
If the above information is false, then I must apologize for the misinformation that I have received, and for this letter. Please do let me know if you are innocent of what the scientist alleges, all right? If you do so, then I shall know that you place a value on my material, and shall continue to send it. If I do not hear from you by Christmas...then I shall know that the charges are accurate... and shall discontinue sending you my unique documentation, since it obviously would have no value to you under those circumstances. *
It is my hope that you two have not been performing in the above manner...because if so, then you have been, in effect, suppressing me and my work with my UFO connection...thereby setting back severely the hopes of the scientific community to gain greater understanding of the UFO community and how it functions, within a viable temporal framework for all concerned.

I, Ted Owens, assign to Mr. George Weiss, 21 Perrin's Walk, Hampstead, London, England, N.W.3, option on copyrights of correspondence, including all signed affidavits, from the beginning of my work. The aforementioned correspondence and affidavits remain my own property, however, for copyright purposes and inclusion in my own books and writings in time to come. This agreement is contingent upon my receiving the full sum of three thousand dollars ($3,000.00) by the date of November 15, 1977. In the event I do not receive the full sum of $3,000.00 by November 15, 1977, then this agreement will be considered null and void and cancelled.

----------
To my scientist contacts (both friendly and unfriendly... my friend, Dr. Monteith, filled me in re your comments.) Pardon this handwriting but Henry (Dr. Monteith) carried my typewriter and Nordemende radio out of my home some time ago to get them repaired for me... so meanwhile, if I can't type, I can't communicate.
Now, see the letter above.
George Weiss called me Oct. 18, 1977, long distance from Ireland. He talked for about an hour, requesting I send him the above "copyright of correspondence" in return for a fee of $3,000 (which I could use desperately at this point.) I agreed and he dictated it word by word over the phone at that time. I went to the Post Office and mailed it to him at his London, England, address, as directed.
In the following week I made financial commitments based
=== Page 17 of 26
2. on George's promise: "Ted, send me this document. You are my friend and you can trust me to send you the money. Have I ever lied to you?"
No, George had never lied to me. He had promised, previous to the 1977 Parascience Conference in London, England, to which I had been invited to lecture, in the company of scientists lecturing) that he would get me over for it - since I had no funds for it. To my amazement he did indeed pay my way over there and back for the Parascience Conference to lecture, and even arranged my stay at a first-class hotel. So I had no reason to doubt George's word with regard to this $3,000 promise.
But around the first of November George called; said he had received the document; but could not pay me for it. This was a stunning blow, because I had made solid financial commitments, based on George's word. I told him that if the $3,000 did not arrive, I would clobber England... especially London... and create havoc and chaos over there. I told him that my SIs were irked anyway because they had ended the terrible drought in England (I wrote the Queen that I would cause it in advance of the fact - you have that file) - yet she never did thank the SIs and me. And I hung up on George in great anger. I telepathed to my SIs and explained the matter to them... they said they would put the matter in balance and teach the English Queen some respect for the SIs and me.
What follows... is the action that my "UFO connection" has taken.

# Five Die As Firemen Still Strike
LONDON (UPI) -- Four children and a 47-year-old invalid died in fires in Northern Ireland and Scotland Thursday as inexperienced soldiers with outdated equipment struggled to fill in for the nation's 35,000 striking firefighters.
Approximately two dozen soldiers were injured fighting 41 fires across Britain Thursday -- the fourth day of the walkout. Most were overcome by smoke.
"The lads are getting very tired and we are worried that exhaustion will lead to mistakes and someone getting killed," said one army officer.
There were fears the situation could worsen today, when 600 senior fire officers, who have been advising the soldiers, decide whether to join the strike for a 30 per cent pay hike.
Nine persons have died in fires since the strike began, including the five deaths reported Thursday.
Choking troops had to abandon a burning $125 million power station east of London Wednesday when they were overcome by smoke.
Striking firefighters at a nearby stationhouse refused appeals for breathing devices and foam equipment and officials said the facility would be out of action for nine or 10 months and repairs would cost millions of dollars.
Don Bates, general secretary of the Retained Firefighters Union, Thursday charged that picketing firefighters had broken into fire stations during the night and turned in false alarms to call in non-striking, parttime firemen.
Authorities disconnected telephone lines to London's 114 fire stations in response to reports the men were using them to coordinate demonstrations and picketing.
A boy and his 10-month-old sister died in Belfast Thursday morning when soldiers were unable to fend off flames and flying glass to reach them. Two more children died at a fire at their home in Banbridge, Northern Ireland.
A 47-year-old invalid died in Scotland when police and soldiers were unable to get to her through heavy smoke.
The troops have fought 121 blazes in London since Monday, but have been hampered by lack of training and outmoded equipment.
The strikers are demanding a 30 per cent wage increase from their current $118 a week. The government has refused to budge from its 10 per cent ceiling on raises.
More talks between union leaders and employers were scheduled for today.
DEAR TED,
SORRY MY FRIEND, BUT AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME, I AM UNABLE TO PERSUADE ANYONE TO PART WITH ANY MONEY. HOWEVER I AM TRYING VERY HARD AND HOPEFULLY IN THE NEAR FUTURE THE SITUATION WILL CHANGE. TED I KNOW THAT YOU'RE ANGRY BUT PLEASE TRY TO BE A LITTLE PATIENT, HEAVEN KNOWS I'M EQUALLY DISAPPOINTED.
WHAT COULD INFLUENCE EVENTS ENORMOUSLY WOULD BE MY BEING IN POSSESSION OF A COPY OF YOUR FILES WHICH DOCUMENT YOUR ADVENTURES IN FRANCE, SCOTLAND, AND SPANISH AS WELL AS ANY MORE RECENT MATERIAL. TED PLEASE TRUST ME AND TRY TO BELIEVE THAT I HAVE YOUR BEST INTERESTS AT HEART. O.K. THE BALL IS NOW IN YOUR COURT. HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON.

Re: UFO strikes at Britain.
Dear George:
on your word and promise of $3,000, in return for the document I sent at your request... I made irrevocable financial commitments. Because of the past, I did not dream you would renige (sp.) on your promise.
So when you called and went down on your word... my SIs went into action against England on their own. I told you they would, on the phone. Now you've had millions of homes' power blacked out; hurricane winds; floods; and strike along with hundreds of fires... and it will get worse. (The SIs were particularly displeased because Queen Elizabeth ignored my ending the English drought.)
If I receive the promised $3,000 soon, I will send you, on loan, all the files I sent to Colin Wilson.
Your friend,

# Queen Target Of Egg Toss
LONDON (AP) -- A man hurled eggs at Queen Elizabeth II when she arrived at London's Royal Albert Hall to attend a memorial for the dead of two world wars.
She was not hit, but one of the eggs splattered on the rear window of her Rolls Royce about a foot from her face.
Two others hit policemen.
Police dived into the crowd watching the queen's arrival and arrested a man. Later they said they had charged 42-year-old Bernard Morgan, unemployed, with threatening behavior and causing criminal damage to police uniforms. They said he will appear in court Monday.

# Fatal Storms Lash Northern Europe
London
Strong winds, rain, snow and heavy seas pummeled northern Europe yesterday, causing widespread flooding and forcing the crews of two storm-battered vessels into lifeboats.
Authorities said the storm killed at least four Britons, and two French yachtsmen were feared drowned.
The dead included three persons killed in road accidents and a fourth who died when a 4000-ton container ship sank in the wind-whipped North Sea.
An international rescue fleet plucked 26 British crewmen and three Danish truck drivers from lifeboats in the North Sea after their vessel, the British-owned container ship Hero, sank in the storm while en route from Denmark to Britain. The Danish naval command said one crewman died in the rescue.
West German and Canadian helicopters took part in the operation and the survivors were transferred to ships in the area, including the Canadian destroyer Huron that launched a helicopter for the rescue.

# British Navy Fighting Fires During Strike
LONDON (UPI) -- Royal navy sailors Saturday joined exhausted army and air force troops Saturday in fighting fires as Britain's firefighters strike neared the end of its first week.
An 85-year-old woman died Saturday morning in a fire at her home in Hull, northeast of London, to become the 16th casualty of the week. But police said that her death -- like the others -- could not be attributed directly to the strike.
The firefighters are asking pay increases of 30 per cent over their current salary of $118 a week. The government has countered with an offer of 10 per cent pay hikes.
More than 400 royal navy sailors went into service to assist the 9,500 army, air force and marine personnel on fire duty. Like the specially trained air force crews, some of the sailors are equipped with their own firefighters tools and special breathing apparatus.
The government said amateur firefighters had been called to more than 2,300 fires since the firefighters walked off the job Monday. It said 70 soldiers have been injured while on emergency duty.
Army sources in Northern Ireland said Saturday they feared the provisional Irish Republican Army was stepping up its campaign of fire-bombings as the strike neared the end of its first week.

# Wildcat Strikes by British Power Workers
Albuq. Journal 11/5/77
# Darken Much of Nation
LONDON (AP) -- Buses lurched through darkened Trafalgar Square as lights went out in much of Britain Friday in a wildcat go-slow strike by power workers.
Electricity was shut off to millions of homes and offices on a chaotic day of rotated power cuts -- often without warning.
Rush-hour commuters heading for their trains at London's Charing Cross Station formed long chains behind those wise enough to bring flashlights to negotiate their way.
At least one death was linked to the disruption as cuts hit different parts of the country for up to three hours at a time.
An 80-year-old woman, Mrs. Doris Yates, was burned to death as she tried to keep warm during a blackout by using a portable gas heater which exploded, fire officials and neighbors said. She had borrowed the heater when her electric heat was shut off.
Elsewhere, Britons ate cold meals by candlelight, hospitals postponed non-essential operations, and roads were snarled by the sudden failure of traffic signals. Health authorities made special arrangements for kidney patients to use generator power for their dialysis units.
British soccer teams rescheduled their Saturday matches for earlier daylight hours to avoid floodlight outages.
In defiance of instructions from their own unions and appeals from the government, leaders of the unofficial strike said they were ready to "flatten the country" by shutting down all power stations if management carried out a threat to stop their pay.
The strikers appeared more conciliatory at an evening news conference, when one leader said he hoped "a solution could be found soon. We are looking for a mediator to try to resolve our grievance."
The government's National Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service said it would not intervene and told the strikers they had to use normal union channels. This route appeared blocked because the unions have condemned the wildcat slow-downs.
The strikers from four different unions -- engineering workers, electricians, transport, and municipal -- are seeking travel allowances, higher shift pay and concessionary prices for their own home electricity.
Their go-slow action began to bite on Wednesday and by Friday was affecting 80 of the country's 137 power stations. The strikers are mostly maintenance men and coal-shovellers, and the majority of the nation's 90,000 power workers were not involved, according to the Central Electricity Generating Board which runs the country's state-owned electricity network.
The power cuts were ordered by the Electricity Board because of a backlog of maintenance work at power plants, officials said.
British Rail, the nationwide passenger train service, kept most trains rolling by drawing power from areas not affected by cuts. But local outages affected signalling equipment and many commuters suffered long delays. Train departures called train departures through bullhorns at Charing Cross station, just off Trafalgar Square.
London subway trains ran normally on their own power generators, London Transport said.

# British Firefighter Strike Nearing
LONDON (UPI) -- British firefighters Saturday spent their final hours before striking by rescuing flood victims along the coast and the government appealed to them to reconsider a decision to walk off the job Monday.
Tom Ham, chairman of the Greater London Council's fire committee, appealed to Londoners to keep calm.
"The strike seems certain to go ahead and we want to keep the risk to life and property as small as possible," Ham said.
Newspapers and radio stations put out a list of precautions for households and emergency telephone numbers for use during the strike.
Winds of up to 92 mph and driving rain caused havoc across a wide area of Britain and the fire brigades turned out to help people from automobiles, buses and houses in flooded lowlands.

Strike Jolts Great Britain
LONDON (UPI) - Parliament called an emergency session Tuesday to discuss the strike by 35,000 firefighters. Army troops and volunteers battled hundreds of blazes and Scotland Yard launched a secret plan to trap false alarm callers.
One group of striking firefighters expressed fear they would be fired for responding to an emergency call to help evacuate a flaming hospital.
The London Fire Brigade Headquarters received 255 emergency calls during the strike's first 24 hours, slightly less than normal for a weekday. Many were false alarms.

# British Firefighters Watch Plant Burn
Compiled From Journal Wires
LONDON - Striking British firemen refused to help inexperienced army firefighters battle a raging blaze Wednesday in a $125 million power station east of London. It was the worst fire in the three-day-old walkout for more pay.
The biggest blaze since Britain's 35,000 firefighters went on strike Monday roared unchecked, forcing scores of people from their homes in Tilbury, about 30 miles outside London on the River Thames.
A 15-year-old girl trapped in her burning farmhouse in Northern Ireland and a 48-year-old man smothered in a tenement fire in Glasgow, Scotland, were the fifth and sixth persons to die since the beginning of the strike, Britain's first nationwide walkout.
The unprecedented strike by virtually all of Britain's full-time firemen turned nasty as strikers squabbled over whether they should aid the soldiers or remain on the picket lines.
Some striking firemen abandoned the picket lines to join army troops at an early morning blaze in a London medical school building. But they were heckled and photographed by other strikers who refused to help.
"We have a fight on our hands, and we must see that our people don't stab us in the back," one angry striker said.
The chief fire officer for Essex County telephoned several fire stations near Tilbert when flames quickly engulfed the 1,200-megawatt, coal-burning power plant.
"I asked them to attend with breathing apparatus, but they refused," said Chief Fire Officer Roy Barnes.
Three building employes were overcome by thick, acrid smoke that billowed from the building. The soldiers, using 1950-vintage fire tenders, had to withdraw and let the fire burn itself out. Officials said there was severe damage and the plant was in danger of collapsing.
The military has not taken modern equipment from fire stations because the Labor government hopes to avoid a

picket line confrontation. The soldiers also have been plagued by firebugs, hoaxes and "some idiot with a transmitter" who is jamming communications, authorities say.
The striking firemen, members of the Fire Brigades Union, abandoned picket lines three times Tuesday to fight several blazes, including a smoky fire inside a London hospital.
The firemen went on strike 9 a.m. Monday over a pay dispute. They argue their average weekly salary of $115 is not enough to make ends meet in inflation-ridden Britain. But Home Secretary Merlyn Rees has said the firemen would not be exempted from anti-inflationary pay guidelines that allow for raises of no more than 10 per cent.
About 30 firemen's wives from East London and adjoining Essex County marched through a market place in Romford Wednesday and told passers-by they were fed up with accepting cash handouts from relatives. Some pedestrians clapped and drivers tooted their horns in support.
"All we want is a livable wage for our men who do a difficult, dangerous and often agonizing job," said Mrs Susan Rush, 24, one of the march organizers. Her husband works at Romford fire station.
Another marcher, Mrs. Maggie Baran, 25, said she earned more as a telephone operator than her 31-year-old fireman husband, Stefan.

# Babysitter And Hope
Entertainer Bob Hope chats with Britain's Queen Elizabeth after a variety show at London's Palladium honoring her silver jubilee. Hope teased the queen about becoming a grandmother and congratulated her on her new title, "royal babysitter," after the birth of a son to her daughter, Princess Anne.
Scientists
The above is one of the primary reasons for this file... which entails the SI's causing chaos in Britain. They, the SI's, were deeply irked because my work with them ended the terrible drought in Britain in 1976 (see that file) yet the Queen did not meet me or greet me for it (see my "before and after" letters to the Queen in the above file)... yet she, and Britain, will honor show biz entertainers. Thus the present punishment from the UFOs for Britain. The SI's spank slow learners and bad children.

# British Viewers Receive a Scare From Eerie Voice
WINCHESTER, England (AP) -- "All your weapons of evil must be destroyed," said the deep voice to thousands of television viewers in southern England Saturday night.
The startling interruption prompted hundreds of phone calls to police and Southern Television studios. They launched an immediate investigation to track down a suspected pirate transmitter.
Unlike the famous "War of the Worlds" radio broadcast in America in 1938 that had thousands of listeners believing Martians had landed on Earth, this hoax was not part of the station's program.
The six-minute message, said by the speaker to come from the Intergalactic Assn., began shortly after 5 p.m., breaking into a news program. There was no visual signal.
"This is the voice of Asteron," the speaker began, "you have only a short time to learn to live together in peace."
A policeman said, "Most people had taken it quite seriously. They were frightened and generally scared. We had to send a police car round to calm down one woman."
"We don't know what the source of it was or how it got on the air," said a spokesman for the independent television station in London. He said it had been broadcast in only a section of the country south of London and believed it was the first incident of its kind in Britain.
"My little girl, Donna, was frightened and started screaming," said Janet Stewart of Basingstoke, about 50 miles southwest of London. "I'm not easily frightened, but at the end I was shaking like a leaf."
Scientists... a strange coincidence! While my SIs (UFOs) are clobbering Britain and causing eggs to be thrown at the Queen... this happens.

# Two Die in England As Troops Fight Fires
LONDON (UPI) -- Fires claimed two more lives Thursday as British troops battled some of the biggest blazes of the 11-day firefighters' strike. The government said it would call up members of the Marine Band to bolster the beleaguered soldiers.
In Northern Ireland, an overnight firebomb blitz touched off seven blazes. Officials blamed the Irish Republican Army.
Strikers raced from the picket line in Chorley, 206 miles northwest of London, to aid soldiers fighting a fire in a private home. But they were unable to save its elderly female occupant because of the thick smoke, police said.
At Seaforth near Liverpool an elderly man was found dead after a blaze in a house.
Thirty people were evacuated from a retirement home in Newcastle when a fire broke out early Thursday. Troops using six "green goddess" fire trucks from World War II brought the blaze under control, but many of the elderly residents were hospitalized for smoke inhalation.
The Home Office said 22 people have died in fires since the 35,000 firefighters walked out to back demands for a 30 per cent pay raise. They currently earn $118 a week.
More than 100 troops and 17 fire engines were called in overnight to fight London's biggest blaze since the soldiers were drafted to firefighting duty. The fire gutted a textile and paper factory in Bermondsey.
Cleveland County soldiers tackled their biggest blaze to date when a timer yard at Domanstown in northeast Britain caught fire. Six engines finally controlled the flames, but the building and adjoining offices were badly damaged, police said.
The government announced Thursday it was calling up 165 Marine bandsmen to bolster the ranks of the 9,500 troops on emergency fire duty. The reinforcements from three Royal Marine bands were scheduled to join troops in the West Midlands and the Strathclyde region, military spokesman said.
In Northern Ireland, a series of cassette-sized bombs started a massive fire in a Londonderry lumberyard, and three more firebombs were planted in a local pub.

# British Firemen, Families March To Press Demands
LONDON (AP) -- Ten thousand striking firemen, their wives, children and supporters, marched through the center of London Saturday to press their demands for a 30 per cent pay raise.
As they marched, the toll of fire-related deaths since the strike began Nov. 14 rose to 24 when a young man was burned to death in an apartment fire in London's Covent Garden district, police said.
Authorities said none of the fire-related deaths during the strike could be blamed on the firemen's walkout, since they would have perished before firefighters arrived.
Fire deaths during the strike have averaged two per day. Fire deaths during nonstrike periods average 2.68 per day, but they have dropped during the strike because people are exercising more care to prevent fires, officials said.
An arsonist struck London's big Middlesex Hospital for the sixth time in a week, defying tight security to set a blaze in a bathroom of the nurses' home adjacent to the hospital. Men on special 24-hour patrol doused the flames. There were no injuries.
Firemen from all parts of the country, including Scotland, joined the march.
Chanting "More pay!" they went first to Prime Minister James Callaghan's residence to deliver a petition signed by half a million supporters.
It asked the Labor government to set aside its 10 per cent wage guidelines and meet the firemen's demands for a 30 per cent increase over their current average of $115 for a 48-hour work week.
The government has rejected the wage demands, refusing to make an exception to its anti-inflation pay policy.
About 14,000 troops, backed by air force and navy specialists, have been mobilized to fight the fires across Britain since the strike began.
The Fire Brigades Union, claiming strike support is hardening, said senior fire officers in London are now joining the walkout.
"In London, more than half the officers have joined the union and are actively supporting the strike. They are not assisting the army at any fires," claimed Trevor Jones, a regional union official.
Officers had earlier been coordinating troop movements as fires were reported in the city.
Jones also said the public was being "very generous" to strikers, contributing $36,000 to a strike fund.
In Birmingham, Britain's second-largest city, about 1,200 civil servants joined firemen in a march through the city center for a rally to support of the firemen's strike and to press the government to restore cuts in public spending.
There was also a mass rally in Aberdeen, Scotland, attended by striking firemen from throughout Scotland.

# Britain's fire losses mount
LONDON (AP) -- Tension and destruction mounted today in Britain's four-day-old firemen's strike as militants tried to prevent hastily trained soldiers from fighting blazes.
The Home Office reported 12 fire-related deaths, including five children in Northern Ireland yesterday and today.
Tempers flared during a London power station blaze yesterday when non-striking senior fire officers commandeered a foam engine from a nearby firehouse.
The strikers took the truck back, but troops later moved in and drove it away.
Strikers picketed some of the army's emergency fire stations to stop senior fire officers, who are acting as advisers to the soldiers, from going in.
A team of part-time reserve firemen was kicked and spat upon when it answered one call. Militants also sabotaged some of their own trucks yesterday and jammed station doors to prevent troops from taking the equipment.
The Greater London Council, the capital's governing body, said it blanked out a strikers' pirate radio network in retaliation for earlier jamming of a key channel linking an emergency control center with mobile firefighting units.
The council said it also cut off telephones at striker-held firehouses.
A Defense Ministry official said the army's 10,000 rookie firemen, who went into action when the strike began Monday, were getting "very tired." Major fires across the country taxed their endurance.
The mounting toll of destruction highlighted the soldiers' lack of modern equipment and firefighting skill. Legislators chastised the government for "exposing the soldiers to risk by not providing them with adequate equipment."
The soldiers, backed by part-time reserve firemen and volunteer groups with buckets and garden hoses, are using 25-year-old civil defense fire trucks brought out of mothballs. Most of the sophisticated equipment used by the 33,000 full-time firemen is locked up in their stations.
The firemen, making an average $115 a week, want a 30 percent pay increase. But the government refuses to back off from its counter-inflationary curbs limiting increases to 10 percent.
