The whole article:
“A tribal policeman here (Warm Springs, Oregon) reported
sighting unidentified flying objects in the skies between midnight and 3 a .m. today (9 January 1974).
Patrolman Chris Still notified the Jefferson County
sheriff’s office at 1:38 a.m. of an object over the Deschutes River Canyon. At
2:51 a.m. he reported the sighting of a second object.
Police Chief Jeffrey Sanders, who was notified of the
sightings about 2 a .m.,
believes the objects were stars. They were described to him as red on top with
green, orange, yellow and white flashings or blinking.
The first object reportedly travelled west to east,
stopping over Grass Valley north of Madras. There it was reportedly joined by
the second object. After the second object moved away, the first one lowered to
about 4,000 feet
and then resumed a higher altitude, according to Still.”
