BUFORA Journal and Bulletin, Vol. 1, No. 6, Autumn 1965

This document is the Autumn 1965 issue (Volume 1, Number 6) of the BUFORA Journal and Bulletin, published by the British U.F.O. Research Association. The journal serves as a central repository for UFO research, news, and investigative reports. The editorial by J. Cleary-Baker discusses the statistical analysis of UFO sightings, noting that while thousands of reports exist, many are misidentified conventional objects or hoaxes. The issue features a detailed report on the 'Warminster Sound' and associated aerial phenomena in Wiltshire, suggesting these are linked to UFO activity near Cley Hill and military installations. It also includes an excerpt from a lecture by Antoni W. Szachnowski regarding UFO sightings in Hungary and Czechoslovakia, highlighting the challenges of researching UFOs behind the 'Iron Curtain' and the potential confusion between UFOs and military balloons. A significant portion of the journal is dedicated to the 'Scorriton Affair,' involving a sighting by E. Arthur Bryant in Devon, which included physical traces and an enigmatic message. The journal also covers a meeting with Dan Fry, a discussion on the BAVIC alignment theory by P. K. Haythornthwaite, and a historical account of a 1200 A.D. sighting in York. The publication emphasizes the association's commitment to unbiased scientific investigation and provides administrative information for its members, including a list of affiliated societies and branches.
