On June 7, 1954, Mr. Thomas Eickhoff, 3721
Tappan Avenue, Cincinnati 23, Ohio, Operator of Tom's
Beauty Salon, Neave Building, Fourth and Race Streets,
Cincinnati, Ohio, advised that although he belongs to
no organization interested 1n f'lyi
saucers or discs,
he has been interested in this subject.
He said on June 3, 1954 an ad appeared in
'The Cincinnati Enquirt11t" 11 , a newspaper of general. circu­
lation in Cincinnati, Ohio, to the effect that on June
11, 1954 a program would be presented a
he Ta!'t
Auditorium in Cincinnati, Ohio on 11 the r aJ. flying
saucer story." Mr. Eickhoff advised that this advertise­
ment disclosed no sponsor for this program and it was
only noted on the ad that tickets for the program sold
for ~2.00 per person and would be on sale at the Central
Ticket Off'ice in Cincinnati.
Mr. Eickhoff continued that because of his
interest in the subject of flying saucers, he desired
to know the sponsor of the program and found out fro
the Central Ticket Of'fice that the ad had been placed
by Henr,....-tmday, 364 West Lewiston Avenue, Ferndale 20,
Michigan.
He said he telephonically contacted Maday
on June 3, 1954 and found that Maday was only the agent
having rented the Taft Auditorium and that he was
acting on behalf of Truman Bethurum and George Hunt
Williamson.
He continued that on June 4, 1954 Maday
cal.led him back an told him there had been a dis­
agreement between Maday, Bethurum and filliamson over
Maday's arrangement for the sale of tickets of the
program and the renting of the auditorium.
Eickhoff
advised that Maday at no time said anything to discredit
either Bethurum or Williamson and indicated that their
d.isagreement concerned only Maday's placing the ad
in "The Cincinnati Enquirer" prior to having tickets
for the program available in Cincinnati .
