The whole article (Page 6):
“Official confirmation by the FAA of a UFO radar
tracking has been received from Federal Aviation Agency's (FAA) Experimental Center
at Atlantic City , New Jersey . The tracking, confirmed visually,
occurred on the evening of February 24.
‘I can confirm the reported radar tracking of a UFO at
this
Center. . .to the extent that our air traffic facility did have an unidentified target on its radar at the time and in the vicinity a motorist reported a UFO,’ said Public Affairs Officer, E. L. Shoop, Jr., of the Center’s National Aviation Facilities, in a letter to NICAP.

The motorist is Robert King, a mechanic for Southern
Jersey Airways, who spotted the glowing orange UFO around 10 p.m. while driving
along the Garden State Parkway, about 15 miles south of Atlantic City. Traveling at
an estimated speed of 100 m .p.h.
and altitude of about 1500
feet , the object moved quickly toward the ground and
disappeared. It later reappeared and headed south toward Cape
May .
King then called the FAA and, according to Mr. Shoop,
‘he was informed by the controllers on duty that they did have an unidentified
target at the time and place in question. . .’, but ‘they could not confirm any
erratic maneuvering.’
The witness also said, in a newspaper report, that a
check with Cape May and Atlantic
County airports revealed
no planes had either landed or taken off during the time of the sighting.”
