Continued from Page 4 Aerial intercepts have been attempted by military jet fighters, but all have been un successful. Perhaps one of the most fa mous stories among the UFO legends is Roswell, N.M., and Area 51. An FBI memorandum dating back to March 22, 1950, and addressed to J. Edgar I loovcr, then director of the FBI, reports a crash in New Mexico. The memo reported that “flying saucers” were secretly recovered by the U.S. Air Force, and aboard the craft, “bodies of human shape but only three feet tall” were found. The memo can be ob tained by writing directly to the FBI. Laura Marion, public relations chair per son for the MSC Current Issues Awareness Committee and a junior mangement major, said she is skeptical about the existence of aliens and the validity of the documents. “Personally, I’m not really sure on my position. I’m interested in seeing what kind of documents he brings, so I’m not convinced right now,” she said. Meganne Valerioti. a member of the committee and a freshman biomedical sci ence major, said it is up to the individual, but she is keeping an open mind. “It’s re ally hard to tell what’s real»: it’s up to the individualtoder n’t take it all seriously, but I tally blow it off either. 1 thinf possibility; I definitely befe to be life out there.

Coi NEW YORK (AP) — It is the comic book equivalent of Coke executives joining the Pepsi Generation. Stan Lee, the legendary Marvel Comics guru and cre ator of Spider-Man and The Hulk, has signed on to work with his former arch-enemies at D.C. Comics. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. “How could I say no?” Lee asked Wednesday from his California office. “What a kick this is. And even if I fall on my face, I think people will get a kick out of this. “Of course, I hope I don’t fall on my face.” Under the arrangement, Lee will be allow ed to recreate the lives and times of DC’s most recognizable characters. Will Superman make it from Krypton to Metropolis? Will Batman find his Robin? What of Wonder Woman? It's all up to Lee, who says the only boundary is his imagination. “Every kid who has ever picked up one of his comics wondered what Sum would do if he ever worked on the IX' heroes,” said Paul Levity, executive vice president and publisher of DC Comics. “And now \se can deliver their dream.” The merger, once unthinkable, became possible in 1998 when Marvel emerged from bankruptcy . Lee’s exclusiv e contract was voided and replaced vv ith a lifetime deal re quiring him to spend just 10 percent ofhis time with the com pany. So when DC approached w ith their profxrsal for “Just Imagine Stan Lee Creating ...*’, he jumped at the chance. “The beautiful thing about it is that I start from ground zero,” Lee said. “The toughest thing is deciding, ‘How would I do this?’ It’s almost like I’m somebody else think ing, ‘How would Stan Lee do this?’ ” I \en better, he will work with some oflM >P artists: longtime Marvel collaboratorJolmi Blue Whal 275 feet “Watchmen” illustrator Dave Gibbons, and B of the animated “Batman” and “Superman telev ision series.
