With the inclusion of these three newspaper clippings, our current exploration of various articles and reviews regarding the movie is ending. It is rather interesting that the Canadian newspaper spelled Al Chop's last name as Chopp. But what's a newspaper without the occasional typo? In any event, thanks again to researcher Barry Greenwood for contributing the scanned news clippings you've read over the past several weeks; his efforts made my work on these entries relatively uncomplicated.

Wendell Swanson's Mother
Among a wealth of newspaper and magazine articles I read about the movie over many years, never have I encountered anything about the family of radar expert Wendell Swanson, one of the few to portray himself and recreate his own role in "U.F.O." Yet, among today's collection is a newspaper article spotlighting Swanson's mother, including a photo. I am reminded of the late comedic actor and singer Jimmy Durante, who was fond of cracking the words, "Everybody wants to get into the act!" (credit: Barry Greenwood)
