CYRUS the Archeologist uncovers Green Co. space story Cyrus finds this story about how Apollo 15 seems to have landed in Green County Branch in 1972 By Keith Marcum Sulphur Well humorist Green River Country has a new attraction, it'slocated about five miles from Greensburg onHighway 61 between Columbia and Greensburg. At first glance one might think that it was thebarrel of a wrecked cement truck but as youcome closer you can clearly see the sign thatproclaims in five inch letters, Apollo 15. The lunar vehicle is lying on its side in a tinybranch that runs along the road in plain view oanyone that might wish to look at a sight thatis awe inspiring to say the least. There may beany number of reasons for the module havingbeen placed there. A person could think that the Government justplain lost it or mislaid it for the time being. Or you could believe that the people that usedit last decided to abandon it because of thedamage that resulted from landing in a oneinch deep spring instead of the ocean. The Government had a reason It is the belief of the writer of this story thatpeople who handle such matters as to thewhereabouts you store a spaceship, decided toplace it in Green River Country, because theyran out of space in Washington and decided toput the thing in your County because theyknew that the honest and good natured peopleof area wouldn't mutilate or destroy anythingso precious .If by chance, there comes a stranger to yourhouse some morning, with long hair, a shaggybeard, and an outlandish white suit and helmet,you'd better feed him and if he should ask forpermission to make a long distance call toWashington, let him do it. There is no need for any of you to rush downto the site of the object that is being writtenabout to check for bodies because there aren'tany. As a matter of fact there are several thingsmissing from the lunar vehicle. Not a moon rock to be found First of all, there isn't a moon rock to be foundin the area. You know perfectly well that ifthey lost something as large as a space shipthat they would lose the rocks also. Next there is the item of the sign. Even if thesign does say Apollo 15, it is made only ofpaper and will be gone with the first rain... Ifthis were the real Apollo 15 it would havebeen written in huge olive drab letters of paint. It is the belief of certain people that the objectis in truth the container of a concrete truckthat had an accident and isn't the Lunar vehicleApollo 15 at all. An expert has been called in to determine if intruth the object is the claimed space ship, andif not certain people are going to write theirlawyers and congressmen and complain aboutthe malicious and purposeful fraud of the goodpeople of Green County.
