Pursuant to our conversation on last Friday, June 16, 1978, I am releasing to Dr. David Greene, Senior Consultant to Bolt, Beraneck and Newman, the following items to be used in the preliminary analysis phase of our Acoustics Project: @ - -1) scale drawing of Dealey Plaza 2) small scale drawing of Dealey Plaza 3): four pictures of Dealey Plaza 4) 2 pictures of the Texas School Book Depository 5) 2 shots of the underpass leading towards ° Stemmons Freeway. The large stale drawing of Dealey Plaza should be useful in that the numbers on: Houston Street (ex: 240, 235, etc.) are markings that correspond to Zapruder film markings. Also, the angles from the window to the ground correspond with the Zapruder film. Please be aware, however, that the markings are based on the FBI's measurements and the Committee cannot vouch for their accuracy. We are in the process of compiling our own data independently and will forward that material when it is ready. As John and I promised you during our last visit, the Zapruder film frames corresponding to the shots will be delivered as soon as we receive them.

C. 20540 Dear Mr. Gude:. | , - Pursuant to our meeting this morning, which was attended by Stephen Langone and Suzanne Cavanaugh of CRS, and Margo Jackson and Richard Billings of the Select Commit- ©} ‘tee on Assassinations’ staff, certain stipulations were agreed upon pertaining to our reading project on Lee. Harvey Oswald. . On Wednesday, May 24, 1978, at 10:00 A.M. Suzanne Cavanaugh and Margo Jackson will meet at the National Ar- chives to examine a group of materials believed to have been read by Lee Harvey Oswald. After the selection of the appropriate materials, the CRS project will consist of the following: 1. CRS will prepare an outline consisting of: a. A paragraph summary of each item; and b. A discussion as to how CRS could analyze the items as they relate to motive. 2. CRS will prepare a paper consisting of: a. A description of the types of literature Lee Harvey Oswald was exposed to; and b. A discussion of how these materials may have _ provided a possible motive for the assassina- © tion of President Kennedy. HW 55923 DoclId:32266673 Page 92
HW 55923 --Thé Honorable Gilbert Gude May 22, 1978 Page Two A due date for this paper will be discussed on May 29th. ; We realize that the researcher may have difficulty making firm determinations as to a probable motive, but we are confining our expectations to possibilities and prob~ abilities. In coming to such determinations, the researcher should consider the following areas which may appear in the literature: 1. Political assassinations. 2. .Speeches and statements by Castro. 3. American policy toward Cuba. 4. John F. Kennedy's policy toward Cuba. 5. American leaders' policy toward Communism, sub- versive groups, Cuba and the Soviet Union. 6. Anything indicating a possible motive for as- sassination. As was discussed this morning, it might be helpful if the assigned researcher reads the following sections of the Warren Commission Report to get a clearer understanding of the issues we are pursuing: pages 254-333, 375-424, and 669-740. As your study progresses, please feel free to con- tact the Committee. Sincerely, Li fled Clabes, _G. Robert Blakey Chief Counsel and Director GRB:mjg DoclId:32266673 ‘Page 93
