Skywatchers See
Giant Meteor In
Southern States
NEW ORLEANS, UP) — A giant
meteor, visible over southwestern
and southeastern parts of the na
tion, blazed through the skies
Friday night.
There were reports fragments
had reached the earth in Texas,
Louisiana and Alabama. None of
the reports was confirmed.
Airline pilots, radio operators,
astronomers and others from west
ern Texas to Florida and as far
north as Missouri reported the
fiery object shortly after 11 p. m.
Some said it flashed briefly
through the starry moonlit sky,
giving off a daytime brilliance,
and then disappeared. In some
places, it left flaming trails visible
for about 20 seconds.
Oscar Monnig, an amateur as- •
tronomer at Fort Worth, Tex., said
bearings taken on the object in
dicate it probably plummeted into
| the Gulf of Mexico southwest of
New Orleans.
