An analysis is carried out of the angular distribution of a unique star consisting of 20 + 15 + 59 p and probably produced by a proton of energy > 1000 Bev. The angular distribution of the shower particles is characterized bv two maxima and is explained by the anisotropic angular distribution and power-law energy spectrum of the created particles in the c.m.s. The presence of a large number of strongly ionizing particles indicates that the Heitler--Terreaux theory does not give a correct description of pi -meson production. The angular distribution of 11 other showers with the same characteristic anisotropy is also investigated. (auth)
