UFO in Chicago IL. Bridgeporn neighborhhod

I do remember what month it was, because I was only about 6 years old back in 1965. My brother was 16 yeard old at the time. My brother had a white telescope, he was looking out the front window, because he always like looking at the stars.
He had spotted a bright light up in the sky hoovering over the West up above the apartments across the street, It was moving in weird directional movements.
My brother had called all of us in the house my Gramdma, Mother and myself, to look out the front window, to see this weird bright light up in the sky. In fact the whole neaghborhood in the Chicago Bridgeport area had seen this weird bright light up in the sky in the west. know one knew what all of us had saw that night, but the police department had speculated that it might have been a hoax from by a nearby college in Wheaton IL.
Date is approximate.  PD
