If you do some image searches on Google for 1960's era satellites you will see some weather satellites that without the fin's fit the description of 12' long and 6-7' wide acorn shaped. I think it was one of those that fell back down.
Thanks Promo for your post, I am leaning to a possible soviet spy plane or a U.S. Experimental plane. Or thirdly a great piece of space junk. There was a lot of military, an government involvement for it to be a common meteor.
For the time period this happened we were in the middle of the great "space race". So I would assume that any foreign space debris that fell we would rush to obtain.
