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»:

Marvel’s Stan Lee signs to work for former enemy D.C. 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
