A quick look through some AMS plotted radiant information I have reveals
the following possibly interesting reports:
                            No. of     
AMS#   Date    Alpha  Delta Meteors Grade  Observer
5446	1/22/66 204.00 34.00   5      A     D SUMMERS
1420	1/24/20 179.50 31.00   7      G     NPB
1421	1/24/20 180.00 16.00  11      G     NPB

The orignal records to go with these observations should be in the AMS
archive at SUNY-Geneseo.  Norm McLeod, with many years experience analyzing
AMS charts can probably comment on any potential problems with these.
