LAWRENCE
5/18/1964
An Army reserve pilot and others sighted a silent pulsating yellow light approaching Lawrence Airport at a speed estimated at 200-300 MPH. Captain Robert Smith thought it was a landing light from an approaching aircraft, until the light made an abrupt 360 degree turn and flashing away at well over 1000 MPH. The object was silent and no sonic boom was heard. (Source UFO's: Interplanetary Visitors Fowler)

This incident was directly above the "Old Lawrence Library" on Parker Street in Lawrence Massachusetts. A large group of kids were playing basketball in the Saint Patrick's school yard at 9:30pm. There were basketball hoops at the time and they had lights so we could play at night.
When someone noted something hovering about 75 feet above the Library. I mean exactly above this building. I remember the object to be the same diameter as the building, it was a round disk-like oval shape with colored lights of yellow and red around the perimeter. The thing that awed me was that it made no sound and emitted no air flow or exhaust. We were all just starring at it, for the most part we were all very quiet. The object hovered motionless for about 45 seconds and then went swiftly vertical and out of sight in an instant.
From what I could see, the object was definitely a metallic finish close to nickel or aluminum in color.
The amazing thing with the whole thing is that nobody seemed to be panicked and even mildly interested and I never heard too much of any chatter about the incident until about 8 years ago, when my wife told me of the story she was told by someone who also witnessed this amazing incident. She restated it as I remember.
The diameter of the object was almost exact to that of the building and this is what I assumed to be what attracted it. The building would look like a landing pad from the sky. Flat roofed and square. The other intriguing thought was that the darkness and flood lights illuminated the group of people and attracted the object for a closer look.
