1. The Air Technical Intelligence Center is attempting to locate the original of a 35 mm film of unidentified flying objects taken by a Mr. D. C. Newhouse near Tremonton, Utah, on 2 Jul 52. This film was analyzed by the USNPIC during the early part of 1953.

2. In a report issued by USNPIC, Subj: "Interpretation of Movies of Unidentified Objects", serial number 0105, dated 4 May 53, it is stated in part, "The film exposed in Utah is in very poor condition; dry, brittle, and with a tendency to break. After initial viewing, duplication of the film was performed in order to preserve the film." There appears to be no reference as to whether the original film was destroyed or returned.

3. It is requested that any available information be furnished to the Air Technical Intelligence Center as to the disposition of this film after the interpretation was completed.

4. Information is further requested as to whether or not any copies of this film are on hand there.
