BELGRADE, Authorities announced yesterday they were making a "serious in-vestigation" of the flight over Yugoslavia Monday of objects which looked and acted like nothing described in the stand-ard aviation reference books.
An official spokesman empha-sized that the mystery was being "taken very seriously." He said the phenomenon was reported by astronomical observatories, weather bureaus, airfields, and hundreds of amateur observers.
The spokesman said the offi clal attitude was one of reserved silence until the investigation is completed.

FINNISH ALARM GROWS OVER ‘GHOST’ PLANES Vast Military Survey Hinted in Mysterious Night Flights Over Northern Europe. Wireless to The New York Times.
HELSINGFORS, Feb. 3. — Continued night flights over Northern Finland, Sweden, and Norway by so-called “ghost” aviators, which have caused such apprehension here as to prompt the general staff to organize reconnoitering on a wide scale by army planes all over Northern Finland, still remain a deep mystery. Many eyewitnesses have been unable to identify the planes.
Mysterious lights over Helsingfors and Viborg have caused alarm. Last night at least one large unidentified airplane was sighted over Eastern Finland, close to the Russian frontier, apparently scouting the district.
As the authorities are extremely reticent, the newspapers have interviewed aviation experts, who state the mystery fliers show exceptional skill, undoubtedly superior to that of Northern European aviators.
According to one expert’s theory, the first of the “ghost” aviators was a Japanese scouting the Arctic regions whose activities caused the Soviet to dispatch airplanes to watch the Japanese. The Soviet authorities, however, refuted this theory.
The appearance of a mysterious airplane over London has strengthened the belief that the flights constitute an extensive scheme to explore the aviation possibilities for a future war. Apprehension is expressed in Finnish newspapers.

ANCIENT MYSTERY "The Flying Saucer" Comes Back By a News-Mail Staff Writer
Stories already begin to appear in increasing numbers of the mysterious "flying saucers" which are attributed to various causes, from enemy aircraft to messages from other planets.
It is considered that the recent amazing developments in aeronautical science have produced these strange objects.
But, ever since man looked into the skies with an enquiring mind, there have been similar rumours of elusive objects in flight.
In January, 1758, at Tuam, in Ireland, extraordinary lights appeared in the sky and remained visible for more than half an hour. The light was as bright as the sun at midnight.
At 11 in the evening at the lighthouse there appeared eight or ten disc-like objects, sailing in the sky.
These discs gradually became obscured and, following a loud explosion, they sped away to the north.
There is no doubt about the authenticity of the display as it was seen and verified by hundreds of people.
The only explanation ever offered was that it was an example of the aurora borealis, but this was never confirmed by the scientists who investigated the phenomenon.
Another example was in 1896, when a certain midnight display took place above a man’s home in North Wales.
He saw a light which “suddenly resolved itself into a clearly defined disc three times the size of Jupiter.”
After that, similar strange clouds and cigar-shaped airships were seen.
As far back as 1894, a great number of mysterious lights were reported in Scotland and Switzerland. They did not appear on stormy nights and were associated with earthquakes which occurred about the same time.
An interesting case occurred in the United States in 1897, which became known as the “Great Airship Case,” although this was at a time when airships were in their infancy.
It started with a mysterious light which appeared over Kansas City and was reported by reputable newspaper as travelling towards the earth at no small rate of speed.
A few days later, the people of Chicago saw the same green “airship” over their city. These lights resolved into an object that had the shape of a black cigar, with a bright searchlight on the tip.
Similar reports came from Texas and other parts, but as it appeared and disappeared in open country, but rose again into the sky, it vanished before anyone could really ascertain what it really was.
In all the cases reported from early times to the present day, one thing stands out — the reports of these mysterious flying objects are so remarkably similar.
More important still, there has never been any trace of the “flying saucer” or other flying object that has landed, or which any part has been found.
Meteors and satellites, which are natural or man-made objects which fall to earth from outer space, have been found all over the world and analyzed, but the “flying saucer” object which has been so often reported in certain quarters, remains a mystery.
Discovered at Barrier Canyon in the central Utah desert, this ancient pictograph features a striking humanoid form distinguished by oversized insect-like eyes and antennae. It is estimated to have been created between 2000 BCE and 500 CE.
Aurora Fernandes, then 18, was struck by a red beam of light which she described as "feeling like a very thin needle piercing" her, leading to immediate unconsciousness. For weeks afterward, she struggled to walk or speak coherently. This incident is one of hundreds of UFO attack cases documented by the Brazilian Military in Colares, 1977. The original image is in black and white.
The Flatwoods Monster 1952, West Virginia
One night in 1952, a bright object streaked across the sky and landed near Flatwoods, West Virginia. A group of locals, including two young brothers and a National Guardsman, went to investigate. On the hill, they saw a tall glowing figure red face, spade-shaped hood, claw-like hands, and a hissing sound before it glided toward them. Terrified, they ran. The next day, strange skid marks and a sticky residue were found where the “creature” appeared. Later skeptics said it was just a barn owl lit by a meteor but for many, the Flatwoods Monster remains one of America’s most chilling UFO legends.
In 1561, residents of Nuremberg reported seeing hundreds of aerial objects spheres, crosses, and rods appearing to battle in the sky at dawn. Hans Glaser documented it in a detailed woodcut showing shapes falling to Earth in smoke. Scholars debate whether it was a UFO event, mass vision, or optical phenomenon like sun dogs.
