    About 20 people leave Waldport, Oregon with a UFO group after a lecture

    Marshall Applewhite and Bonnie Nettles, later leaders of Heaven's Gate, spoke on UFOs and salvation at a Waldport inn; about 20 local people gave up their belongings and left with them. The departures became national news that fall, including on CBS's evening newscast.
