Re SA [redacted] Portland Division, telephone call to Longview RA, 5/5/72.

SA [redacted] advised that he received infor- mation from [redacted] Union Station, Portland, Oregon, that [redacted] was fishing on Merwin Lake on 5/2/72, and at that time he observed a white object hanging in a large tree on the south side of Lake Merwin. [redacted] further advised that [redacted] would be available for contact on 5/8/72, at the Union Station, Portland, Oregon, [redacted]

On 5/8/72, SA [redacted] contacted [redacted] Union Station, Portland, Oregon, and displayed a map of Clark and Cowlitz County to [redacted] at which time he pinpointed the location where he saw the white object near Merwin Dam. The trip to Portland, Oregon, was necessary because the Portland Field Office did not have a current map of Clark and Cowlitz County, Washington.

Arrangements are currently being made to locate and identify the white object seen by [redacted]
