14 August 1968
SUBJECT: GUCAS, Chris
Subject is identified as a California investigator who administered
a polygraph test to Edgar Eugene BRADLEY who has been charged with conspiracy
by GARRISON.
Subject was born 12 August 1921 at Omaha, Nebraska. He is a former
Agencyemployee who EOD in October 1949 as a GS-9 Intelligence Officer.
Subject resigned his staff status in February 1951 and became a staff
agent with Project ENDXHORPH in[       from March 1951 until July 1952.
(His wife Anne Claudia GUGAS nee SEuO was granted a covert security clearance
in February 1952 for use in a clerical capacity in the Middle East.)
In his assignment with Project ENDCM&RPH in        Sub ect was a
source of constant embarrassment in his contacts with        police
officials. He was boastful, indiscreet, lacking in sound judgment, knew
little or nothing in the fields in which he was self-professedly an expert
and was guilty of security breaches in failing to maintain his cover.
In one incident he made recommendations of police reorganizations to be
made by province governors in         whereas, in         the Police
Department is a national organization and not subjet to the dictates of
the rovince governors. This caused much ill will and friction with the
police.
Subject professed to be an expert in his knowledge of the polygraph
machine and claimed he had two years' experience with the Los Angeles
Police Department prior to his employment with the Agenc . However, i.
was developed that instead of this claimed experience, he had actually
spent one or two weeks in a detective school connected with the Los Angeles
Police Department where he received below average grades.
In October 1952 he approached an Agency employee regarding a new
type of technical equipment and this conversation led to the disclosure
by Subject that he was employed by the Agencj in a covert capacity; that
he was teaching lie detection techniques to foreign police departments
without being authorized or competent to do so. Subject was briefed in
December 1952 with stress placed on the importance of living up to his
security responsibilities and exercising utmost precaution in protecting
the covert interests of the Agency;
In spite of the strong warnings given him in this interview, Subject
again became involved in an incident of official embarrassment to the Agency.
