1. NAME Of SUBJECT OR TITLE OF INCIDENT P 2. DATE SUBMITTED
On 11 January 1983, Source CL-07 was interviewed concerning a section
of a building in
Source described an entry area in this ecct.ion of building. There
was a table near the entry. Beyond the table were very wide arching stairways
thatt, went: upward in the direction of the courtyard (away from the main street).
The entry area seemed to be open with a big chandelier or something
hanging in the center. It was all a very big open space, echoey. Source
described areas other than the entry which were located to the right
(facing the building from the main street).
Source described a room to the right of the entry on the second
or third floor. In this room containing a big, slighlty oval table
and chairs, a meeting had taken place attended by 15-20 people. Some
of these people were dressed in dark suits worn over dull, grayish colored
sweaters. Others were wearing green uniforms. Most of the people
appeared to be 30 or 40 years old. Three people appeared to be
addressing this group. This meeting seemed to be very boring, having
.o do with a belt..-tightening sort of thing.
Source also described another room in this section of the building
which was long and narrow. it had a window which opened on the court-
yard. This room appeared very cluttered and had lots of metal shelves
with a lot of paper. There was a long table or workbench on a wall and
there were maps or charts of some kind. In this room there was a machine
with lots of pins which drew squiggly lines on paper on a drum. This
machine was hooked to someplace else, possibly an adjacent room.
Source reported that because of the things he saw in the building (a big
white metal sphere, a hexegonal shaped long shaft, a parabolic antenna or
reflector, cables and unusual boxes), all in unspecified locations, that the
building had to do with research or expanding knowledge for new information.
No further amplifying information was obtained from Source during this Interview.
