TO: SAC, SEATTLE (164-81) Date 5/17/72 FROM: ACTING DIRECTOR, FBI (164-2111) SUB-Z

NORJAK

Captioned major case occurred almost six months ago and still remains unsolved. All indications pointed to the fact that the unknown subject parachuted near LaCenter, Washington; however, an extensive ground search of the area and investigation have failed to identify or locate the hijacker.

You must now approach the investigative aspect of this important unsolved major case with a fresh approach. The files should be thoroughly and objectively reviewed, serial by serial, by alert personnel who have proven to be tireless, imaginative, and "street wise" investigators. To assist in this file review you may wish to consider utilizing the services of personnel who have not been "wrapped up" in this case from its inception. In your file review insure that all matters that have been brought to your attention in this case have been completely resolved and that none were overlooked or left hanging.

Within ten days of receipt of this communication, advise the Bureau what steps and avenues you intend to take in order to identify and locate the unknown subject.
