11. BRIEF SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS [HW:] Two boys, 16 & 18 years of age who, according to investigating officer and Hynek (who personally investigated the case) appear to have good reliability saw a luminous "blob" arising from the ground in accordance with acceleration in a northeasterly direction The night was dark and partly cloudy Photographs are consistent with verbal account by boys and indicate diameter of roughly spherical glow to be [ILLEGIBLE] feet or somewhat larger Two polaroid photographs were taken In outward appearance the glow resembled a hypothetical plasma ball and this could be the explanation if it can be shown that such plasma balls are physically possible.
