From Pat Deveney's database:
20th Century Times. This journal set out the contact of Angelucci (1912-1993) with a transparent flying saucer shaped like a "ghostly Eskimo igloo" while crossing a vacant lot in Los Angeles, California, on July 12, 1952. This vessel carried him automatically to a vastly larger one in which he was "baptized" by a white ray of light and told: "Beloved friend we baptize you by all the spectral forces we know." He was returned to his work at the Boeing aircraft factory with a mission, the details of which were later imparted to him by a human-appearing "space brother" in an alley. Etc. The gist of the message was fraternal love among humans and openness and love for the space brothers: "We see the individual people of earth as each one really is, not as perceived by the limited senses of Man. The people of your planet have been under observation by us for centuries, but have only recently been resurveyed. Every point of progress in your society is registered with us. We know you as you do not know ourselves. Every man, woman, and child on Earth is recorded in our vital statistics by means of our receiving ‘crystal discs.' We feel a deep sense of kinship, or brotherhood, toward Earth's inhabitants because the evolution of our own planet has been along somewhat the same lines as that of earth. In you we can look back and see our own world going through its growing-pains . . . We ask that you look upon us as older, much older, brothers!" The last page of the journal is devoted to the wonderful economic possibilities of recreation and recreational activities like ladies' billiards. The date of the encounter, July 12, 1952 is notable because George Adamski's contact with aliens did not take place until November 20, 1952, giving Angelucci precedence (unless credence can be given to Gerald Light and his encounter in 1933. See the note under Galaxies of Light. When this journal proved inadequate to popularize Angelucci's story, he resorted to writing a series of articles on his adventures for Ray Palmer's new Mystic magazine that were later made into a book, The Secret of the Saucers, issued by Palmer's publishing house, Amherst Press, in 1955.
