NARRATIVE

I was 5 yrs. old and playing on Guerlain St.,  Bronx NY.  I looked up and saw what looked like a baseball gliding in a straight path around 15  mph. towards Tremont Ave.  I crossed the street and tried to follow it on Thieriot Ave.  After a short distance the object moved faster and then headed toward the sky.
At the time it didn't occur to me to tell anyone.  This is the first time I have reported it since I am getting old and want it recorded.  No one would have believed me way back then  and might not now.  I read  an article recently about  experiments in the 50s and thought I should report it just for the record.  I don't believe I imagined it.
