Editor’s Note: Everett Orain Clark, resident of Knoxville Tennessee, recently passed away. Along with his many life accolades, back in 1957, at the age of 12, while living in the nearby community of Dante, he would gain local notoriety as an alleged witness to a “space ship” landing in a near-by field.
Everett claimed that four occupants disembarked from the craft, two men and two women. They appeared normal in dress; however, it seemed to him that they were speaking a language that he described as akin to “German.” Read account, above and below—FW
[...] He said the "space ship" was "long and round" and of no particualr color. "Translucent?" one of his teachers asked. Everett agreed it might be translucent. [...] About ten feet where Everett was standing, I saw a peculiar imprint in the thick grass. | By Carson Brewer Knoxville New Sentinel 11-6-1957 |
[...]
It was in the shape of a fat cigar or a slender egg. I stepped off the length of the thing as about 24 feet. It probably was about 5 feet wide at the thickest portion.
