Help!

A friend of mine shot these pix with his K1000 (a+ for shooting film) 
and is getting these flares on some of  his film.  He thinks that it 
only occurs when he has his 35-70 zoom on the camera.  It doesn't look 
like lens flare to me.  I don't think it it is a light leak because the 
flare stays within the frame and does not extend to the sprockets.  I 
think that if it was a shutter problem the flare would be sharper.  It 
occurs in the same area of the frame each time, sometimes extending 
further across the frame.

I guess that it might have something to do with the lens, but I am not 
familiar with what might cause it.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Leo
