Egypt Parley Near Climax UNITED NATIONS (AP)--A climax approaches today in U.S.-Egyptian private talks to- ward an agreement that the Se- curity Council should try again to settle issues left by the Israe- li-Arab war of last June. Egyptian Foreign Minister Mahmoud Riad and U.S. Ambas- sador Arthur J.

UN Secretary-General U Thant told reporters that the Ameri- can-Egyptian meeting would make clear whether there was |to be an agreement on which the Bevo could act. He said it was | 'difficult to anticipate" if there would be. | Other diplomats said Egypt was ready to compromise in an effort to get quick action from the council but Israel was stand- ing fast in its demand for direct negotiations with the Arabs.

PROSPECTORS TAKE PICTURE CALGARY (CP)--A_ spokes- man says the RCAF may send a helicopter to look for whatever-it-is that fell out of whatever-it-was in July. Whatever-it-was was seen by three prospectors near Nanton, Alta., and was photographed by one, Warren Smith, 27, of Cal- gary. Sqdn. Ldr. E. G. Chase of Cal- gary says Mr. Smith's photo- graph is the best one yet of an unidentified flying object in the RCAF files. And he said other reports of UFOs in the Calgary area last week "'have the ring of authen- ticity." Saqdn. Ldr. Chase said enlarge- ment of Mr. Smith's photo- graphs show a domed, saucer- shaped object about 40 feet @cross with a red light on top b and what appeared to be bluish exhaust. One prospector said he saw something fall from the UFO and the RCAF spokesman said a search may be staged. The three gold prospectors say the object was seen west of Nan- ton, about 50 miles south of Cal- gary, July 3. The latest in a series of UFO sightings was reported Thursday by Nora Tibbs, a High River, Alta., housewife, who says her car stalled when a UFO circled over it Wednesday night. She said she was 'driving on Highway 2 near Aldersyde, 25 miles south of Calgary, when her car lights, radio and motor cut out. "T stepped on the gas to pull over to the curb but there was no power, no lights, no radio or 'RING OF AUTHENTICITY' nothing." Then, she said, she saw a bril- liant light she took for the moon. Then a dark shape, about 1,000 feet up, began to circle the car. "It circled around the car four or five times and then went away. I was just frozen, a real cold, right-to-the-bone actual chill. I didn't thaw out until noon the next day." When the UFO disappeared, the car's power returned. She described the object as oval-shaped with "'a kind of a dome shape" on one side. She thought it vaguely resembled a dirigible. Forestry lookout Russ Hill, de- scribed as reliable and trustwor- thy by his colleagues, has report- ed four sightings--the latest Tuesday--about 35 miles west of High River. i Helicopter Hunts "'Whatever-It-Was WARREN SMITH e+» Saw UFO ~ Cambridge last week as a | party | weekend.
