...gallery of foreign statesmen sitting for candid TV interviews, e.g., Russia's Nikita Khrushchev, China's Chou Enlai, CBS this week added President Gamal Abdel Nasser of the new United Arab Republic. Well-tailored and suave, speaking in near-perfect English (though he kept saying "freezed" for "froze"), Nasser discussed his plans to visit Moscow this month, and announced a Russian "loan" of 25 factories that will be set up in Egypt.

From Reinhold Schmidt, a 48-year-old grain buyer who was driving through Nebraska, came the claim that he approached a cigar-shaped object that had landed. A ray of light froze him in his tracks, he said, and two spacemen dressed in American business suits searched him, then invited him aboard. They spoke High German, Schmidt insisted, and told him that "you'll know in the near future what this is all about." Two days later Reinhold Schmidt...
