:HUNGARY IN UFO FEVER AS STRANGE CROP CIRCLES CROP UP :
: :
:BUDAPEST (AUG. 10) DPA - A young boy says he saw a yellow :
:dome-shaped object fringed with red light. His father claims:
:he saw a clearly-outlined rectangular mass of light appear :
:over the centre of the town of Szekesfehervar. :
: :
:The object apparently left behind a circle 38 metres in :
:diametre along with several triangles in a nearby cornfield.:
: :
:Hungary is currently in unidentiied flying object (UFO) :
:fever. The pilot of an air sea rescue helicopter first :
:spotted the strange crop circles at the end of June. :
: :
:Since then, Hungarian UFO fans have been flocking to see the:
:circles for themselves at Szekesfehervar, near Lake Balaton.:
: :
:Some parents even place their children in the middle of the :
:circle, in order to fill them with ''magical energy''. :
:Others believe they are in direct contact with the ''crew'' :
:of the UFO and that the latter will actually appear there in:
:the flesh. :
: :
:Laszlo Marnitz, who informed the daily newspaper Kurir about:
:the alleged extra-terrestrial visit, has an explanation for :
:the strange sightings: :
: :
:He says the extraterrestrials cannot be seen by mere mortals:
:as because they live in at least 16 dimensions. :
: :
:He added that the strange geometric patterns in the corn :
:field can only be explained away by a UFO because the corn :
:sheaves were not broken, just bent down. :
: :
:The sheaves had furthermore been bent in just the one :
:direction, because the circle was caused by a magnetic :
:field, he adds. :
: :
:Marnitz, a self-professed UFO-logist, says he is quite sure :
:that the UFOs do not land when they visit Earth, they just :
:hover above the ground. :
: :
:Some of the corn sheaves are now being scrutinised at an :
:agrochemical station in the nearby town of Velence and :
:compared with ''normal'' specimens. :
: :
:The new evidence is an eight-metre circle in a cornfield :
:near Enying on the south bank of Lake Balaton. :
: :
:Largely unbeknown to the Hungarian public seems to be the :
:fact that very similar ''signs'' which appeared recently in :
:Britain and north Germany turned out to be a hoax. :
: :
:Meanwhile, those in charge of the agricultural concern on :
:whose land the first ''UFO'' left traces is very sceptical :
:about the whole affair. :
: :
:Small wonder, for all the commotion caused by curiosity- :
:seekers arriving is having an effect on the harvest. :
: :
:The concern intends to issue a summons against persons :
:unknown to claim compensation. :
