College Pres Speaks Saucer
Dr. John Hopkins, Ph.D., a college president and a leading researcher on flying saucers, unidentified flying objects and life on other planets, will give a lecture on the subjects in Pasadena Thursday evening, January 14. The lecture is open to the public.
President of Williams College, founded in Berkeley, Calif., in 1918, Hopkins will speak on "Exploration Research Into Interplanetary Understanding," at 8 p.m. in Odd Fellows Hall, 175 N. Los Robles Ave., Pasadena.
The result of data gathered from all corners of the globe, the lecture will deal particularly with the educational and religious aspects of the flying saucer field.
Dr. Hopkins is a member of Phi Beta Kappa, honorary scholastic fraternity, and Phi Sigma Iota, honorary romance language fraternity. He also is Northern California Vice-President of Understanding, an international organization devoted to better understanding between people of this earth and those who are not of this earth.
Additional offices held by the speaker include the managership of Rocklyn Farms and the posts of vice-president and secretary of Hopkins Properties.
Dr. Hopkins became interested in flying saucers in 1953 and since that time has studied the field intensely. His college at Berkeley, while still a four-year liberal arts institution, has of late entered the field of metaphysical teachings, offering instruction in many of the advanced concepts of the flying saucer and occult fields.
