Description: An October 19, 1983 State of Oregon interoffice memo from Bob Oliver to the Rajneesh File regarding a telephone call from Jayananda.

Oliver served as the legal counsel to Governors McCall and Atiyeh, playing a particularly important behind-the-scenes role as Public Safety Coordinator during the Rajneesh crisis.; This is one document from a binder containing various notes, memos, and official documents relating to the Rajneesh movement compiled by Gerry Thompson.
