Here's the link for the transcript with a UCLA adcom on Oct 6, 2008:

Mae: Approximately, what percentage of the applicants is invited for interview?
MaeShoresANDERSON (Oct 6, 2008 12:35:00 PM)
Apaar - this past year we changed to interview by invitation and interviewed approximately 27 or 28% of the pool. We will interview that same amount again this year or even more - we do not let the numbers drive the process and would much rather err on the side of being too generous up front.

I'm really surprised that the interview percentage is so low (that's barely higher than the acceptance rate) considering that UCLA's yield is in the 50s. Unless UCLA accepts a lot of students without interviews then I don't see how this number can hold.
