Roster / The early years

Identified as "Dr. Gee," the scientist in Frank Scully's 1950 crash account.

GeBauer was a Phoenix-based engineer and businessman who worked with Silas Newton. He was identified as "Dr. Gee," the scientist who, in Frank Scully's Behind the Flying Saucers (1950), said he had examined recovered craft and their crews.

J. P. Cahn's 1952 True magazine article named him as Dr. Gee and called the story a hoax. In 1953 he and Newton were convicted of fraud for selling oil-prospecting devices, nicknamed doodlebugs, to investors, which were pitched as based on saucer technology. Later Aztec researchers, including Scott and Suzanne Ramsey, have looked again at his part in the account.
