THE BULLETIN IS INTENDEDERIOUS VENTf" AND ALL THZ INFORMATION IN IT Via BE VERIFIED BEFORE PUBL HON. THIS WILL INVOLVE CHECKING ON EYEWITNESS ACCOUNTS OF UFOS THROUGH CROSS-EXAMINATION OF WITNESSES.

BUT UFOSONSUMMING INTEREST AND HE DID NOT HESITATE TO LEAVE HIS JOB WHEN THE INTERPRINT JOINT VENTURE SUGGESTED THAT HEULLETIN. FROM THE BEGINNING, THE PLAN HAS BEEN TO USE THE PROCEEDS FROM THE BULLETIN TO SETESEARCH CENTRE FOR THE STUDY OF UFOS.

HOWEVER, INTEPRINT WERE NOT PREPARED TO INVEST THEOUBLES REQUIRED TO START THE PROJECT, LEAVING RYBAKOV AS BOTH OWNER AND EDITOR. "IF THE PUBLICATION GOES BANKRUPT, I'LL TRY TO FIND SOME OTHER WELL-PAIDE SAYS.

HOWEVER, HE IS CONFIDENT THAT THE BULLETIN WILL SELL. ITS NEAREST RIVAL, THE BALTIC NEWSPAPER EMSKIY TRIANGLE, COSTS THREE ROUBLES, WHEREAS UFO AND ANOMALOUR PHENOMENA WILL COST ABOUTOPEKS.

IF SOYUZPECHAT CONTINUE REFUSING TO DISTRIBUTE THE BULLETIN,JOB WILL HE UNDERTAKEN RY PPTVUTF INTHVinUAI.S
