As demand for a second high school increased in the 1950s and '60s, Wheaton North High School split off from the original Wheaton High School, later known as Wheaton Community High School. At this time Wheaton Community changed its name to Wheaton Central High School, and in 1992 again changed its name to Wheaton Warrenville South High School and moved to its present location.

UFO's: A Scientific Debate made its first appearance in 1972, and was a publication follow-up to a scientific colloqium conducted under the auspices of The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). The book served as a collection of the papers presented at the AAAS conference held on the subject in 1969 by various authors, including Roach. The papers were further supplemented or revised before publication and certain post-conference discussions or comments were incorporated into the volume. The overall editing of the volume was handled by the astronomer Carl Sagan and Thornton W. Page. The book has been printed several times by various publishers.
