Question

6．On January 31，1978，three young boys were skating on the ice-covered playing field of the Montvale Memorial Elementary School in Montvale，New Jersey．Eddie Hargrove，his brother Michael，and their friend John Cummings watched as a flying object flew nearer．It was square with rounded corners and it had a yellow light at each corner and a light underneath．
    The three boys quickly realized that they were seeing something strange．They became frightened an d ran to the dugout（休息室） by the field．By then，the object had disappeared．Before they could discuss what had happened，they noticed what looked like a man in a yellow jogging suit across the road from the field．Michael thought it was a neighbor who often jogged in the evening．
"Mr．Johnson，"Michael called to the man，"did you see that UFO？"
    Immediately the man turned toward the boys，and Michael's tongue was frozen．Just then，ten other creatures，all in yellow jogging suits，joined him．Each one was bald（秃头） and had large，dark，square places where his eyes should have been； their skin was light yellow．
"Have you heard of Hitler's army？"John later said．"You know how they walked kind of stiff（僵硬地），with their arms straight？Well，that's…how they looked．"
Some of them were walking back and forth，while others headed down a nearby road．Finally they walked through the back wall of a building and disappeared completely．Now everything was normal again-almost．
    Could they have been joggers？Officer Pelsang of the Montvale Police Department said he had never seen more than two people jogging together in Montvale and never after dark．
    Three UFO investigators decided to study the case．The three men discovered that the Department of Public Works （DPW） was opposite the school's playing field and near where the boys first saw the yellow-suited aliens and that the DPW workers wore yellow uniforms in bad weather．However，Lewis Bradley of the DPW stated that all workers had gone home at 4：30 p．m．on the day in question and that none were wearing yellow uniforms that day．
    Did the boys see a UFO？Officer Pelsang said，"Twelve-year old boys don't call the police unless they're really upset about something．"However，no matter what the investigators wanted to believe，they could not prove that anything had happened．As they wrote in their final report，"The story is interesting but，alas，the amount of value from a case of this kind…is doubtful．"
