MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Meeting with Drs. Price, Sander, Savely, and
Finch of AFOSR on 28 October 1966
1. Dr. Johnston and I met with representatives of
AFOSR at their request. Ata previous meeting with Drs.
Savely and Finch, Dr. Savely asked if we would brief their
boss, Dr. Price, about our use of AFOSR as a channel for
Agency grants and contracts. Apparently AFOSR is somewhat
nervous about the university problem. Dr. Price was coop-
erative and quite willing to continue and augment this
cooperative program as soon as he understood how the system
worked. I noted, however, that internal Air Force regulations
require that projects in the behavioral and social sciences
not involved in psychophysiology require approval at the
legislative counsel level, and they anticipate problems with
a Col. Hessberg. It turns out that Col. Hessberg works for
Gen. tiller, so I told Dr. Price I would call Gen. Giller
and see if he could smooth the path.
2. Dr. Price asked whether the Robinson report on
UFO's could be declassified and released. Apparently the
Agency and Air Force wrote the report in 1963 and the Agency
has refused to declassify it, probably because it wishes to
protect its sources. Dr. Price feels that with sanitation
this report would appreciably assist them in their current
difficulties over UFO's. I told him I would mention this
to Gen. Giller. He should certainly be able to broker this
with the Agency.
USAF review(s)
completed.
