The whole article:
“An army intelligence agent opened an investigation
today into reports by sheriff’s deputies and others that they saw a flying
‘saucer’ near the army’s huge Fort
Ord.
Deputies Ted Cross and Jim Matney, a former aerial
gunner, were questioned for more than a half-hour by the agent regarding the
object they saw streaking across the countryside near here Sunday (9 April
1950).
The agent told the deputies that all army intelligence
operatives had been ordered to carry cameras in their cars in an effort to
photograph the elusive discs.”
