NORJAK.

TWO FOUR-MAN HELICOPTERS OF THE AIR NATIONAL GUARD, PORTLAND, OREGON, WITH TWO BUREAU AGENTS AS OBSERVERS, WERE UTILIZED TODAY AND FLEW FROM POINT A TO POINT B ON THE REVISED MAP OF THE DROP AREA SUPPLIED BY NORTHWEST AIRLINES. THEY ALSO COVERED THE ENTIRE AREA SOUTH FROM LINE A-B TO THE SOUTHERN BOUNDARY OF THE POSSIBLE DROP AREA WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS.

IT APPEARS THAT THE TERRITORY IN THE GENERAL AREA OF LINE A-B IS VIRGIN TIMBER AND COULD BE SEARCHED ON FOOT.

THE SAME HELICOPTERS WHICH WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL MONDAY WILL ON THAT DAY, WEATHER PERMITTING, SEARCH THE AREA NORTH OF LINE A-B.

BUREAU PERSONNEL TODAY ARE DRIVING THE AREA BY BUREAU CAR TO DETERMINE ROADS AVAILABLE WHICH WILL FACILITATE THE FUTURE SEARCH ON FOOT. END PAGE ONE
