C. S. Dupree saw a light reflected on the sidewalk, looked up and saw a saucer-shaped object travelling very fast. It was not bright, but quite visible. He watched it for three minutes before it disappeared behind a large pecan tree. At the same time Miss Bobbie Owens saw an object that looked like a flying saucer while swimming in the city pool. It was shiny, but not an airplane. It faded out to the southwest after several minutes.
