ReBuairtel 1/2/73 to Seattle, Denver, and Minneapolis,

The color sketch prepared of Unsub in captioned case,
which is marked "B* and dated 1/2/73, is considered by Exhibits
Section at this date to be the best likeness obtainable from descriptive
data available, The original artist's sketch, with and without sunglasses
and designated as ""A™ sketch, was a black and white rendering of Unsub
prepared immediately following hijacking. Subsequently the color sketch,
with and without sunglasses, was developed and marked as "B™ sketch,
Although a divergence of opinion regarding certain characteristics has
appeared in descriptions given by the various witnesses, the consensus
indicates that a good likeness of Unsub is shown by the artist's sketch
and that the "B" sketch with the added dimension of color more accurately
shows the Unsub's age and overall likeness,

In view of the numerous contacts with the witnesses who
supplied the descriptive data from which the sketch was prepared and
the lapse of time since they observed the hijacker, it is felt no construc-
tive purpose can be served by further attempts at modification based on
contact with these same witnesses,

a parachute in the trees in the vicinity of Ryan Lake near
the Goat Rock area, The chute appeared to be orange or red and
white. He went to a vantage point the next day with a spotting
scope and visually observed the chute which is high up in a tall
tree in a very isolated area with no roads nearby, This viewing
revealed that it was an arange and white chute and it appeared to
have some type of box hanging from the rigging. It also was
not the size which could be used by a person descending from a
plane. Investigation disclosed that the Forest and Weather
Services have on occasion dropped such chutes for fire and weather
observations.

In view of the information set out above and since the area
in which the chute is Located is not within a reasonable distance

RE: Sub M =~ MONEY

On June 1, 1973, BILL CLAUSNER, Sheriff of
Stevenson, Washington, advised that $480 worth of $20
bills, 1950 series, were found in a home in North Bonney~
ville, Washington. CLAUSNER advised an elderly Lady was
living in the home and moved to Goldendale, Washington,
to be nearer her family. The elderly lady is named Mrs.
MIDLAND, according to CLAUSNER.
~ Subsequent to her move, an envelope was dis-
covered in the vacant home containing the $20 bills.
CLAUSNER advised: all of the $20 bill serial numbers were
run through NCIC, as well as compared with serial numbers
on the BD, B. COOPER ransom list. There was no match
either in NCIC or with the D. B. COOPER ransom ist.

It is noted all the D. B. COOPER ransom serial
numbers have been entered into NCIC.

No further investigation appears to be warranted
concerning this matter.

[_| dated 12/29/72.

Referenced communication advised two suspects,
a man and woman, exchanged 95, $20.00 bills at Seattle-

First National Bank, 2010 Northwest Market

Street, Seattle,

Washington on December 26, 1972. It was thought these $20
bills were in some way connected with PINAP, this subse-
quently proved false. It was learned the serial numbers
on the $20.00 bills were not compared with those serial

numbers of NORJAK 20's.

In view of the fact the $20.00 bills may be con-
nected with NORJAK matter, the following lead is being set

forth:
