For perhaps the first time,

most people in the Portland

'area know whose picture is

on a $20 bill.
'That's because they have

" been checking 'serial num-
. bers on bills in their posses-
: Sion against the list of serial

numbers being published in
The Journal-of the $20 bills

-éxtorted from Northwest Ori-
. ent Airlines in' the $200,000
."D,B. Cooper"

hijack of
1971.

' The newspaper will pay

$1,000 for the first of the,

"Cooper cash" to be turned

- in either to the newspaper or
. to the FBI,

Publication of the 10, 000

--serial numbers began in jast

Thursday's Journal and will

: be continued in instaliments

until the entire list is repro-
duced for the newspapet's
readers' from the official FBI

- bought a ticket at Portland

under the name ''Dan Coop-
er" and then parachuted into
the night with money he ex-
torted from the airline is a
baffling mystery. Not so baf-
fling is what happened to
those who thought Cooper's
road to riches worth trying.

"BY ROLLA J.CRICK | The 'reward offer has

Journal Staff Writer *

The search goes on. .

For two years, the FBI has
combed the woods for 2 clue
to the Jocation of the airline
hijacker who called himself
Dan Cooper and of the

$200,000 he extoried from
Northwest Orient Airlines.

-"We've never stopped

_ locking for the man or the
money or both," J. Earl
Milne, agent in charge of the
Seattle office of the FBI, in-
formed The Journal Tuesday

in thanking the newspaper.

for publishing the serial
numbers of the missing $20
bills. .

'The baffling Cooper case
falls under the jurisdiction of
the Seattle FBI office be-
cause the actual extortion of
the money occurred jn Seat-

{ tle, although the crime had

. its beginning in Portland.
"Leads continually are

"being received and we check 4

'them out," Milne said. - -

"But I would like to add
my continued plea for peopie

to look for the missing bills. -

If we could recover just one
of those $20 bills, it wouid
put us far ahead of where we
have been."

The Journal is offering
$1,000 for the first of 'the
missing bills to be turned in
either to the newspaper or to
any office of the FBI. Au-
thenticity of the bill as a
part of the Cooper ransom
money will be verified by the
FBI and then The Journal
will pay the $1,000 to the per-
son who had it,

newspaper from as far away -

Reproduction of the FBI's
Official 34-pase booklet of
the 10,000 "Cooper cash"
serial numbers was started
in The Journal Thanksgiving

Day and will be continued in,

installments. Persons who

cannot easily obtain copies

of the newspaper could in-

quire at the FBI office near-

'est their home cities as to

whether they could obtain or

the Portland office of the

change money into $20 bills
by persons hoping to cash in
on The Journal's offer to pay

$1,000 io the person bringing -

in the first $28 bill from
Cooper's haul.

The money may "also be
turned in to any office of the
Federal Bureau of Tavestigar
tion.

Kodelsaid fairly large
sums of money were being

' exchanged for $29 bills,

Many by people carrying
copies of The Journal's list-

urban Seattle home -with-a
briefcase stuffed with two |
wigs, an altimeter and com-
pass, 2 makeup Jot, gloves
-and three red flares wired to:
look like a dynamite bomb.
Fleming, a respected vet-
eran newsman (formerly bu-
reau chief and contributing'
editor with Newsweek for 11 .

every detail of Cooper's hi-'
jacking, in an article that |
ran some 4,000 words and
took five pages of the tab-

"D. B. Cooper" has become a sort of .

parachute escape from a_ hijacked
jetliner with $200, 000 ransom.

collected a bag full of $20 bills in

earlier plane hijackings.

The letter; the latest of
several received by various
newspapers, was turned over
by the Los Angeles Times to

. A former Southwest Wash-
ington skydiver reportedly is
being sought for questioning
by the-FBI in connection with
Wednesday's $200,000 hijacking
¢f a Northwest Airlines pal
é snger plane in which the bat
dt escaped by parachute. i

. The' FBI at Seattle would
not comment on its case, but
information received from ob-
er sources indicated the fed-
eral agency is checking out the
skydiver report. | ot
. According to information ob-
tained by The Journal, the uni-
dentified skydiver practiced
with a group within the' past

ar at Frink Airstrip about
eight miles north of iin

Ver, Wash., and at Goldhiin
Air Park about 'eight- miles
north of Frink, -

BOTH AIRPORTS are on the
Standard "Victor 23" airline
route between Seattle and
Portland, the path followed by
Northwest Flight 305 after it
departed Seattle-Tacoma Air-
Port with the hijacker and his
foot, .

The last voice contact be-
tween the phane's crew and the
hijacker came at 8:13 p.m,
Wednesday near Ariel, Wash.,
according to authorities. The
three airports are a few mij-
utes flying time south of Ariel,
| "A slight shift" in the bal-
jance of the hijacked jetliner
was reported as a prime factor
in the reason for the search

near Ariel, according iv the

FBI,

indefinite that the pilot could
not identify it as the result of
air turbulence or the exit from
the 'plane of the hijacker. But
—th? hijacker never answered
the nrew's attempts to commu-
nicate with him after that mo-
ment. ,

The mental picture conjured
up in the minds of auti:s itis
is that of the hijacker standijg
on the reat steps of the ai:
craft as it moved along at 210
miles an hour, 7,000 feet above
the generally wooded area and
stepping off into space at the
Precise moment the "slight
shift" was noticed. .

He weighed 170 to 175
pounds, according to the pas-
sengers he released at Seattle,
and that weight on the steps of
the plane in the air would have
been like the pressure on the
fas end of a lever.

HE AIRCRAFT flew near
stalling speed from Seattle ae
ward Reno and thus the pilqt
was extremely sensitive to itt
attitudes. "3 .
The actual flight path, as
confirmed by the Federal
Aviation Administration, was
along the airways known as
Victor 23 as far as Red Bluff,
Calif., then almost due east to
Reno, From Seattle, the jet
moved direct to a position over
Mayfield, Wash., three' miles
southeast -of -Toledo, then

passed over the Portland, Eu-

did not see the exit of the hi-

was believed unlikely that
their radars would have picked
up the parachute as 'it
dropped.

PORTLAND — (UPI) —

Just one more year and'

D. B. Cooper will be home
free — if he is alive.

The five-year statute of
limitations then will run out
on hijacking charges
against Cooper, the nation's
first parachuting skyjacker,
who used a bomb threat to
extort $206,000. —

He vanished from a

his loot wrapped in one of

his parachutes, on Thanks-
giving eve, 1972. |

Did he survive the jump,
or is his body at the bottom
of a lal, hung in a tree-or
sc oj ed by animals?

: These Are some of the mys-
. terieséafter four years of i ine

. vestigation.

'WE HAVE RUN down

literaliy thousands of leads,

* and eliminated hundreds of .

people ds suspects," says a

senior Federal Bureau of

. Investigation agent who has
: Spent much time on the

case. "My personal guess is

' that there is just' a 50 per

cent chance that he is still
alive."

Cooper arrived at Port-

_ land International Airport

_ that wet, squally night near-

ly four years ago, paid cash

. for his flight from Portland
; to Seattle, and spent 50. min-

utes in an airport waiting
area pefore boarding, but
not on feilow passenger re-
members him.

: Sh@rtiy after take-off,
: Cooper handed a note to a
, stewardess that said: "I
; have a bomb in iny brief

. case."

_D. B.C Cooper— —
'Home free' next |
if he's alive |

The F.B.J. agent says the '
stewardess reported seeing |
wires, in Cooper's attache :
case, connected to eight red |
sticks of dynamite.

'Dynamite is not color--
coded: this way. She was de-
scribing highway flares,'"
the agent said,

THERE IS SOME doubt!
that Cooper was an experi-!
enced parachutist, says the (
agent, since when Cooper ,
jumped he took the two,
worst choices of ithe four |
parachutes given bim at the |
Seattle-Tacoma Airport.
where he obtajned thet
$200,000 in $20-bills.

A world-champion para;
chutist was quoted as say-
ing "no amount of money'
could induce him to make:
the jump Cooper did, from
10,000 feet into heavy ram
clouds.
But the F.B.L. is positive
Cooper came down about 12.
miles north of Portland in
-an area four miles by six
miles,

Despite aerial and ground :
searches, n no clues to Coop-
er's fate have ever been:
found. i, :

None of the 10,000 bills in

fo Himmelsbach, the Cooper
affair is the greatest unsolved
te In modern-day piracy. But

e has no respect or admiration
_for the man who hijacked the
Northwest flight between Port-
and, Ore., and Seatfle, Wash., on
that fateful day. ; ot
The flight began like any other
for stewardess Florence Shaffner.
She was checking that passengers
vhad fastened their seatbelts when
.a tall, dark-complected man with

' «black hair and sunglasses and

wearing a dark suit handed her a

*, note, -

Thinking he was just looking for

'a date, she stuck the note in her
+ pocket. Then he ordered: "Look

at it—now!" :
As she read the note her eyes

. widened in horror. It said simply:
- "} have a bomb in my briefcase."

Seeing the shock on her face,

another stewardess, Tina Muck-
low, hurried over. Cooper showed
her what was in the briefcase —
two red cylinders wrapped in wir-
ing. She obeyed immediately
when he ordered her to sit beside
him.
__ As the jetliner roared into the
sky, Cooper calmiy explained
Wiiat he wanted, so calmly that
none of the other passengers even
knew they were being hijacked.

-Cooper said he wanted $200,000
in cash and two parachutes wait-
ing for him when the plane
reached Seattle. If the airline
batked or the crew refused to
cooperate, he would blow up the
"plane with everyone in it.

middleman in the negotiations.

ly up to, or even if there actually

At 5:45 PM the jet landed and

- a car rushed out to planeside car-

invited to share the fes-

ARIEL — Skies were overcast and people
almost as scarce as D.B Cooper, himself;-as
this community near Mount St. Helens held its
second annual party in honor -of the legedary
skyjacker's disappearance Saturday. :
Only a handful of people gathered around a
steaming cauldron of buffalo stew at the Ariel
Store and Tavern. And inside the tavern where
another 30 people were gathered, 'beer flowed
more freely than talk of old D.B., who either
pulled off one of the greatest swindles of the age

| D.B. Cooper's fate

PRESS association reports on
the hijacking of a Frontier
Airlines jetliner in Nebraska re-
'ferred to the "'successful hi-
jacking" of a plane by "D.B,
Cooper" after take-off from
Seattie on Thanksgiving Eve,
1971, ;

We beg to take issue with our
wire-service colleagues. There
is no evidence that Cooper's ep-
.isode was successful.

True, Cooper bailed out over
"Southwest Washington and dis-
appeared. True, the ransom
funds he carried have never
turned up.

But chances are, Cooper's re-
mains and those of a tom para-
chute will be found some day in
the limbs of a tree in the track-
less forests of Clark or Cowlitz
County. The money will be
there, too.

If Cooper had fallen into the
hhands of the faw at the time of
this misbegotten adventure, he
imignt have been out on parole
jjoday. Probably that would j
have been a more "successful" |
'outcome: for 'him« than yr -what: +
really happened. ' |

Jury indicts 'D. B: Cooper'

PORTLAND — (AP) — On the attorney's office sought the in-

Thanksgiving Eve, 1971, a hijacker
known as Dan Cooper parachuted
'from a 'Northwest Airlines 727 jet
between Seattle and Portland.

He and the $200,000 he took with
him haven't been heard from since.

Yesterday, hours before the nor-

mal five-year statute of limitations:

on the crime expired, a federal
grand jury in Portland handed
down an indictment against "John
Doe, also known as Dan Cooper."
And, to add to the mystery, a pair
of tattered, moss-stained pants
have Seen found this fall high in 2
ree near where. Cooper was be-
lieved to have bailed out.
Jack Collins, first assistant Unit-
States attorney in Portland, said

dictment because the five-year stat-
ute of limitations may apply in the
case, but he said federal investiga-
tors still have no idea what hap*
pened to Cooper.
Orders to obtain the indictment
came from Deputy Attorney Gener-
'al Richard Thornburg, head of the
criminal division of the Justice De-
partment, Collins said. _
One count charges Cooper with
air piracy, the' other accuses him of
interstate commerce by extortion.
Meanwhile, Federal Bureau of In-
vestigation agents searched an aree
of thick vegetation in Clark County,
Washington, after a farmer and 8
logger found a pair of tattered,
moss-stained pants in. a tree near

here Cooper: is believed to hav,
ailed out. . re
" Cooper was dressed in a business
uit and took two of the worst para
chutes aboard: the plane with him.
"When he jumped, the wind-chill fac-

tor was 69 degrees below zero. ; -

. 'At ledst one of his two parachutes
wvould not have opened, investiga-
tors say, and the other, an emer
gency chute, would have given him
a hard landing in the rugged ter-

gers familiar with the area say Coy-

Sky divers help —
celebrate hi jacking

ARIEL, Wash. (AP) ~ Sky divers plummeted into
an empty campground and souvenir sweatshiris sold
briskly as the people of Ariel celebrated the fifth
anniversary of sky-pirate Dan Cooper's mysterious
parachute jump.

The "Cooper Caper," as the weekend festivity was
dubbed, commemorated the skyjacking that gave
this town of 406 persons its biggest claim to fame.

- It was a stormy night -— Nov. 24, 1971 — when the.
skyjacker who called himself Dan Cooper hijacked a

Northwest Airlines 727, collected $200,000 and bailed :

out somewhere between Seattle and Reno.

Cooper never was found, Neither was the nioney. ,

Of such stuff legends are made.

,One man in the Ariel bar, where Cooper af.

ficionados congregated Saturday, swore he heard the
airplane door slam shut that night.

The FBI reportedly has folidwed that lead, like
dozens of others, into a dead end.

Authorities theorized that Cooper jamped out

around Ariel or Merwin Dam in southwestern
Washington, about 30 miles north of Portland, Ore.

That was excuse enough for Ariel to throw the

Cooper bash this weekend.

As part of the festivities, six sky divers parachuted —

fo earth outside Ariel Saturday. Their landing target,
a big white cross marked on the ground, prompted
one little girl to ask: "Daddy, Daddy, is that where
D.B. Cooper landed?"

Sweatshirts bearing Cooper's name sold briskly at
a stand in Ariel. Passersby thumbed through a book
about the skyjack. A goat, whose real name is Fred,
vias tethered to a tree beneath a sign which rea
"Cooper Reincarnated?"'
[A dummy hung from a parachute slung over th?
poof of the Ariel general store. Signs about towin
asked, ''Will the réal D.B. Cooper step forward?"

Many people believe
that te Peeler feder-
al statute of limitations
on Cooper ran out yes-
terday, and that he can
now emerge to spend
the loot of 10,000 $20
bills. ;

The indictment —- of
Cooper was returned
just hours before fhe
statute of limitations ran
out.

Justice Department of-
fitials in Washington,
¥.C., noted that their at-

Teamster leader Antho-
ny
1961 kidnap-slaying was
thrown out of court by a
federal judge who ruled
that the statute of limi-
tation had expired a

' -decade ago.

But Stan Pitkin, who
recently resigned as
U.S. Attorney for West-
ern Washington, claims
the case against Cooper
is very much alive.

Pitkin argues that air
piracy with threat of

dily harm is a capital
offense. He says federal
capital cases can re-
main "active" forever,
or until a suspect is
brought to trial and
guilt is decided.

Pitkin also claims
there is a federal tax

Just: hyo days after she met. him, Judy Witherspoon married Alex Joseph. "

"F would be hard pressed to tel! you how it happened," she said, care- * °
fully reaching for words.."It was just a recognition of the things Yd been looking
for in a man. I found them in him." .

At least 12 other women ~ maybe more — agree with Judy. For them, Alex "~~~
Joseph, .89, the ponytailed polygamist of Glen Canyon City, Utah, offers a life-~
style they had: been searching for but unable to find until, as they chorused over:
and over again — "until we met Alec'? (their pet name for Joseph),

Joan, "who- married Joseph two and one-half years ago explained their atirac~ -

tion to- him simply, as if she had said if many times before:

"He has dignity, goodness; respectability. He is doing what he wants to do —*.
building and expanding God's world. Alec has so much more integrity that othe
er people can't comprehend it." 5

She said even the parents of some of his young wives are becoming reconciled .
to their way of life because, as Judy put it, "they know Alec i is no mat: man."
"The publicity has helped," she added . .

Three of Joseph's wives, Judy, Joan and Carmen, were with their husband in.
Peoria Friday following Joseph's preliminary hearing in- which Judge John Snure
determined he would have to face trial on charges of possessing a stolen helicop-
ter. °

In Utah, Joseph is also battling the Bureau of Land Management which claims =.
he is illegally homesteading federal lanc near Glen Canyon city, site of his
ranch and two of his five homes.

Following Friday's hearing, Joseph and his wives gathered in the city park to
talk about polygamy—a lifestyle they belive is dictated. in the Scriptures and fs
glowing with a sense of freedom not fount. in monogamous marriages.

- "Tt is the nature of.a man to love several women," Joan said. "If women were

"That's the disaster 'with 8 50 many monogamous martiages," Judy interjected,

_ "women often marry men less intelligent han they are'and can't stand submit,

She added she had quit dating in collegi because she was 5 uninterested in the
men she met there..

Shortly after: Joan married Joseph, Carmen and Judy met him and be
came two more family members. The women said their marriages. were per-
formed in religious ceremonies they claim are modelled after those used in the
Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints. These are not legal
eivil ceremonies; Joseph is an excommunicated Mormon who says he has
founded his own religion. an

Deep at the rdot-of that religion.i is. polygemy which he claims: was practiced by
Biblical prophets including Abraham, Solomon and Jesus. ~

Joseph said he: began practicing polygamy five years ago when he decided
that in order to follow the prophets" teachings he would have to mold his life af-
ter theirs —-wives and ail.

He has ne izouble blending the wills of althis women.

"f have no obligation fo get along with anybody," he said. "If I made it an
obligation to get along with 13 girls, I'd 1ever get anything else done."

"We're not hard to gef along with," Camen noted with a smile.
The three wives with Joseph Friday insited their lives are enriched by their

'close relationship with their sister-wives, vio are much more than friends.

"We Jove our sister-wives and we loveour husband's children," Jean said,

(Mount Clipping in Space Below}

By LES BLUMENTHAL

SEATTLE — If Dan
Cooper had invested the
$200,000 he skyjacked
eight years ago in Orien-
tal rugs, apartment
houses or Charles Russel
paintings, he'd be a mil-
lionaire today.

Maybe he is.

Authorities don't know
if Cooper, history's first
known $skyjacker-for-
money, is dead or alive.
But they have found no
trace of him since he
dived out the back end of
a Northwest Airlines 727
jelliner with a parachute
and disappeared into the
night over Southwestern
Washington on Nov. 24,
1971,

If he lived and was -

shrewd he could have
parlayed the 2] pounds of
$20 bills into a fortune.
The money was in a bag
strapped to his chest.

Maybe the man who -

bought his ticket as "Dan
Cooper" but was trans-
formed in history as
"D.B. Cooper" put the

money in stocks, bonds _

or foreign exchanges.
Maybe he's sitting in an
Acapulco condominium
laughing.

Or as Steve Morris, a
Seattle antique dealer

said, "He's probably fiv-" |.

ing in east Ballard (a

Seattle neighborhood), |

paying for groceries with

the $20 bills he got and |
wishing he had bought {

gold.

"There is really no end
ty the mossy he could
nave mades f he had in-
vosted in antiques,"
elaims Mori 3, a member

he Appr. iver Associa-

"of Amrsica.

if [iacker had invested
Airt could've mace Cooper ric

could have tried real ¢s-
tate.

"That's where I would "
have put it," said Joh
Teutsch Jr. of Rainier
Mortgage Co. ©

Teutsch said Cooper
eould have used the
money for a down pay-
ment on a $] million
apartment building that
would be worth $2 mil-
lion today, even more if
the units had been con-
verted to condominiums.

"Bight years ago Seat-
tle was just coming out of
the Boeing crash. You
could buy $20,000 to
$25,000 houses all over

.the place. Those houses

would be worth. up to

A $200,000 investment +

- $70,000 apiece now,"

said Teutsch.

Steven Haley of Fried-
lander & Sons, a Seattle
jewelry store, says Coop-
er could have invested in

a "traditional form of
concentrating wealth" by
buying diamonds. .

Diamonds are worth
up to three times as much
now as they were in
1971. .

"Nowadays, a five-.

carat stone costs about
$50,000. Back then it cost
about $15,000," said Ha-

ley.
John Pringle, assistant

special agent in.charge of ©

the Seattle FBI office,

4
icn
said Friday, "We don't

have' any more idea
where he is now than

. when he pulled the job."

Pringle says it's possi-
ble, Cooper could have
spent the money without

_ anyone knowing, even
though authorities had |
the serial numbers of the -

bills. *
While American citi-

zens couldin't own gold in |-

1971, Cooper could have
bought the precious met-
al on the Swiss exchange
for between $125 and
$150 an ounce back t
said Haley. Gold ae
sells for over $390 "an

'ef Tho Orogonicn stett .

ARIEL, Wash. — They'l! have
another party Saturday in this hamlet
19 miles east of Woodland.

There wil be loggers' stew and log~

gers' brew and much to-do over the
elusive guest of honor at the Ariel Store
and Tavern, which will hold open house
from uoon to midnight or whenever.

"We don't know whether the guest
of honor will show up or not, but we

. have broadcast invitations far and wide

to Dan Cooper, wherever he is," said
Laurel Fisher, who with her husband,
David, own the emporium in this tiny
timber town made
the first of the high-flying, high-finance
hijackers,

Cooper made history eight years
ago, on Thanksgiving Eve, Wednesday,
Nov. 24, when he hijacked Northwest
Airlines' flight 305 in Portland, bailed
out at 8:10 p.m. that stormy night near
Ariel — and vanished,

Not a trace of the man who gave the
Name of Cooper or any of the 10,000
$20 bills he carried has been found, de

famous by Cooper,.

spite a series of intensive searches by «

grouhd and air over the flight's route
from \Seatile to Reno, during which
Coopes is believed to have bailed out in
freeziny weather ina howling storm.

The FBI continues to get "Cooper
calls," said Bill Williams, FBI spokes:
man In Portland, The latest was a para-
chute found Nov. 7 near the Kalama
River Road, which proved to have no
connection with the Cooper case,

But that doesn't discourage the
sponsors of "Cooper Capers Day,"
which has been held since 1975.

"People will be dropping in ali day,
sitting around the wood stove or the
30-gallon stew pot, swapping lies and
maybe buying a few of the 'Hijacker's
Guide' book we have for sale or the
Z-shirts which say 'I was there, D.B.
Cooper Day, *79,'" Mrs, Fisher said.

There will also be sky divers paya-
chuting into town about noon.

"Maybe Cooper will be amgng
them, whb knows?" Mrs. Fisher added.

KELSO — (AP) — A heavy"
plastic placard from a Boeing 727,
found by .a hunter in a thickly .

,wooded area, could be a link to! -
the unsolved November 24, 1971,-
D.B. Cooper skyjacking, authori-
ties said today.

Cooper is thought to have para-
chuted from a Northwest Airlines
jet near Woodland, about 10 miles
south of here, with $260,000 in $20

ills

The placard is described as an},
pmergency-warning notice of the

{type posted next to the rear exit,
lof 72s.

"There isn't any way that it
could have come off a plane with-
out the (rear) door being opened,"
said the Cowlitz County sheriff, *
Les Nelson. "We know that two
days after Cooper jumped that the
placard was missing off the plane.

"This is the first probable, tan-
gible piece of evidence that has
surfaced in the D.B. Cooper
case," he added. "It's inconceiva3
bie, it's one in a million, that any

other plane could have fost it inj
'the area in which D.B. Cooper
jumped."
The placard was found about
"six flying minutes" from where
Cooper is believed to have
, jumped, said Nelson. It was found
! last November by an elk "hunter,
Carroll Hicks, of Kelso, near 2
Weyerhaeuser Co. logging road
north of Ariel, said Nelson,
The Federal Bureau of {nvesti-
gation and sheriff's detectives,
; withheld information about the;

'tind while trying ta verify the pla: .
'card's origis, he said.

The jet was en route to Seattle
from Portland when Cooper hand-
ed a stewardess a note saying he
had a bomb, After picking up the
ransom and two parachutes in
Seattle, and uliowing the passen-
Bers and two of three stewardess:

decal found by a Kelso hunter last
November could have dropped from
any Boeing' 727, not necessarily the
one hijacker D.B. Cveoper bailed out of
Thanksgiving eve 1971.

John Gordon of the bureau's
Vancouver office said. 'There is no
positive proof that the decal came
from the Cooper plane."

speculated Thursday that the decal
may have fallen off the Cooper plane
when the craft was used for a re-
enactment of {he hijacking sis wecks
after it occurred.

"We noticed the decal was missing
after that, but not before,'' the
s spokesman said.

A spokesman added that the.
placards, used to give emergency
jairections for the rear door on 727s.
have been known to fall off under
normal conditions.

Sherit! Les Nelson disclosed the
discavery of the decal last November
by Carrall Hicks, a self-employed
welder from Kelso who was elk
hunting when he found the bit of
debris.

"It's one in a million that any other
plane could have lost it in the area in
whieh D.B. Cooper jumped," Nelson
sai

But while the 10-inch square decal
has stirred wide interest. Gordon
expressed doubt it would help salve
the mystery behind the case.

"EUs interesting. but I don't think it
will help us find Cooper," he said of
the decal.

Gordon said the FBI has no plans to
resume the search for Cooper and the
$200,000 that Icfl the airplane with
him.

Cowlitz County officials have
indicated they do not plan to search
for Cooper, cither, but they did say
they hope to encourage people te

MINNEAPOLIS — (AP) — Has D.B: Cooper ~ the:

the Pacifie Northwest cight years ago — been to Minne-
apolis' Cricket Theater recently?

Aud if not, the Cricket has the benefit of a promotional
gimmick.

Last month the Cricket opened a musical based on
| ihe life of Cooper. who disappeared in 1971 after hijack-
. ing a Northwest Airlines plane and parachuting some-
where over southwestern Washington. Cooper took a
$200,300 ransom, byt neither Cooper nor the money ever
was found. ; '

Barly this yetr the Cricket placed an ad in Time
magazine, telling "D.B. Cooper, wherever you are." that
"{ayo. free 'lickets are waiting for vou at the-Cricket Thea-
fer..." my

Two replies were received, hoth apparently written
Dy the same person.

The first, postmarked in Chicago, thanked the
(Cricket for the invitation. "I won't say I will aceept, antl]
prot say went," the writer said. The brief note was
signed Daniel B. Cooper.

The letter mailed in Los Angeles was received late
last month after the play opened.- Written on the same
kind. of green notepaper with apparently the same type-
writer, it was longe? and 'full of grammatical errors.

The writer claimed to have seen the play in Minne-
' apolis. "Phe actors and actresses were wonderful." the
writer said. "1 wish I had known them in my owh actual
life." .
A spokesman for the theater said: Producing Direc-
\or pu Semans "firmly believes" the letters. are on the
evel. ;
But playwright Jokn Orlock doesn't buy it. "I think
il was (written by) someone who couldnt resist the thal-
. Tenge," he said. '
Some law enforcement officials say Cooper died
when he jumped from the plane. Orlock helieves Couper
'survived the jemp bet djed of cancer later.
: Orlock's play is based on a letter printed in the New
: + York 'Times about three weeks after the hijackmg. In Lt,
: Cooper claimed to be dying of cancer and added that he
had hijacked the plane in hopes of gaining a "few fast
grains of peace of mind."

le denies being hijacker

STOCKTON, Calif. (AP) — Robert Wesley Rack-{

potraw, the jailed former Green Beret who was ques*
tioned.about the fabled-D. B. Cooperskyj acking, says
he is not-Cooper.

"You want me to say I'm not D. B. Cooper? Okay, |
Tm not D. B. Cooper," Rackstraw told the Stockton ¢
Record in a copyright interview from the San Joa- |

quin County jail. .

. 'That answer was tongue-in-cheek, but jaterin the +
_ interview he repeated that he was not Cooper and
that any doubt would be removed when he goes on
trial on a variety of charges.
-| Rackstraw last year was questioned about the §
skvjacking, but the PBL said this week that he is ng. j
longer a suspect. .

D.B. Cooper missed the party in his honor at the

Ariel Tavern in Lewis County last night on the seventh:

anniversary of -his $200,000 jump irom the rear exit of a

"We're not sure," said Germaine Tricola, who along

with her husband Vince runs the tavern and adjoining
grocery store. "I've been iooking them all over in the
face but, by golly, I don't know."

"He and the money were supposed to have dropped
iz our back yard," said Vince. "But," he added, "we
haven't found him yet."

"We kind of expected he might show up this year,"
he said. "Of course, if I were him, I wouldn't have come.
This is the year the statute of {imitations on the skyjack-
ing runs out."

Cooper hasn't been seen or heard from since some-
one giving that name parachuted from the plane on
Thanksgiving eve in 1971. It remains the country's only
unsolved airplane hijacking.

"We did have a D.B. Cooper arrive at the party,"
Tricola said. "He said he was 'dead on arrival" But then
the party started about ncon.

"At least it was already geing when J got up at noon.
We're having a lot of fun. The place is jammed. There
must be 500 to 1,000 people in here," he said.

Tricola said they had planned to serve buffalo stew
but couldn't get any buffalo. ©

Four parachutists had planned te land right in front

'mile away.

But that didn't slow the festivities. Many people, .

i Mrs. Tricola said "I think he made it. i really think }

(pe did. Because if something was to be found, it would /

The Case Of The Missing

By JOE FRAZIER

PORTLAND, Ore, — It was a miserably wet,
cold Thanksgiving eve in 1971.

Passengers waited at the Northwest Orient Airlines
counter at Portland Iternctional Airport to book space
on Flight 105 to Seaitle.

Many thoyght ahead to family reunions, turkey din-
ners, long relaxed-conversaticns and perhaps a tradition-
al game of bridze or Monopoly ister.

But one didn't

Ran Cuosper paid cash for his veket, then, clutching
a paver vick, boarded the Boeing 727 for tie 39-minute
Hight

A fev: minutes aiter the plan: nosed info the storm,
he made his move. He s:.ved the stewardess what he
satd was a dynamite Yomb and demanded four para-
chutes, $299,009 iit $20 bills and "no Funny stuff."

AM the passengers bat Cooper got off at Seattle,
unaware that anything was wrong.

The money and parachutes were put on board and
the jet. wath onty the crew and Cooper aboard, headed for
Reae on Cooper's order=.

Then somewhere over southwest Washington, Coop-
vr, with the 21 pounds of money strapped to him, bailed
oat.

He hasn't been heard from since,

Tf he's alive — and that's a big 'if* — the five-year
statute of limitations runs out this Thanksgiving eve,
Nov. 24.

Or does it?

"WE'RE GOING AHEAD on the assumption that the
statule doesn't apply, beeause when he did what ke did,
camta! punishment was a possibilin. There's ne statate
on eenital crimes," says FBI agent Ralph Himmelsbach.
, jioyvay, he says, chances are good that Cooper is
lead.
"Net one af the 10.%¥) bills has shown up, and we
know the certal number of every one of them," ke said,
And Cooper apparently knev nothing about skydiving.

Ina business swit and street shoes, ke jumped from
the rear dnor of a jet ening 197 moh at 10,000 fect. At
that elevation it was 7 degrees below zero that ght,
svith a wind-chill factor of 69 degrees below zero,

The plane was in clouds "Up iooked like down to

' Associated Press

The man who headed much of the FBI's
manhunt for the almost — legendary skyjacker
"D.B. Cooper" is retiring with his most famous
case still unsolved.

- "There's just no trace of the man, period. He
just vanished inte thin air. We have absolutely no
idea who he even was," said Joseph O'Connell,
_ how special agent in charge of the EBPs | San
' Antonio, Texas, office,

"Ht is my personal opinion 'that he is dead.
There has been absolutely no trace ofthe man
called D. B. Cooper or the money since the day in
fate November 1871 when an Anglo male bought
a ticket using that name. :

"Usually, the longer 4 case such as this goes
without being solved, the more confident the
perpetrator gets and he surfaces," O'Connell said.

It is all somewhat maddening for O'Connell,
who retires next month after a 2-year career.

"Tt doesn't stick in my craw," said O'Connell,
whe took over the case in early 1972 and led the
hunt through 1973. "But it does bring out my
competitive spirit. I would certainly @ to see
the FBI solve it." .

The celebrated case remains the FBYs only

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - A
miserably wet, windy, coid
Thanksgiving eve in 197).

Passengers waited at the
Northwest Orient Airlines
counter at Portland Interna.
tional Alrport to book space
_ on Flight 105 to Seattle,

Many thought ahead to fami-
ty reunions, turkey dinners
long relaxed conversations
and perhaps a tradillonal
game of bridge or Monopoly
later.

But one didn't.

Dan Cooper paid cash for his
ticket, then, clutching a paper
sack, boarded the Boeing 727
for the 30-minute flight.

A few minutes afler the

stane nosed into the storm, he, rear door of a jet going 197 say
made his move. He showed ' m.p.h. al 10,000 fect. At that sertey
the stewardess what he said , elevation it was seven below LOE FT Ave

was a dynaniite bomb and de-
manded four parachutes,
$200,000 in $20 bills, and "no
funny stuff."

All the passengers bit
Cooper got off at Sealtle, una-
ware that anything was
amiss.

The money and parachules
were pul on board and the jet,
with only the crew and Cooper
aboard, headed for Reno on
Cooper's erders.

Then somewhere over south-
west Washington Cooper, wilh
ihe 2f pounds of money strap-
ped to him, bailed out,

He hasn't been heard from
since.

If he's alive, snd that's a
big "Ul," the fivé-year stalule
of limitations runs out this
Thanksgiving eve, Nov. 24.
Or does it?

Ralph Himmelsbach,

Himmelsbach, who has
worked on the case from the
start, concedes that recent
court decisions have muddied
the question of whether capi-
tal punishment would, in fact,
have been appileable.

"We're continuing to pro-
cess Suspects," he said. "Of
course, it nas slowed down a
great deal."

He says chanees are good
that Cooper is dead.

"Not one of the 10,000 bills
has shown vp, and we know
the serlai number of every
one of them," he said. And
Cooper apparently knew no-
thing about skydiving,

In a business suit and sfreet

"On top of that, he probably

meisbach said,

The plane was in clouds.
"Up looked like down to him,
He had no visual reference.
Ke couldn't have possibly

Himmelsbach wonders if he
cared.

"In another 30 minutes he
could have been over the Wil-
lamette Valley, and almost
anyplace he Jumped would
have been safe to land," he
sald. Instead, Cooper picked
some of the roughest country
in the Pacific Northwest,

The next night the FBI re-
enacted the skyjacking using
the same plane, crew, fuel
load, speed and altitude. The

test helped fight engineers
and meteorologists to com-
pute the probable drop zone to
be a trapezoidal area covering
about 25 square miles.

It has been searched and re-
searched in vain. In April,
1972, 200 Army troops from
Ft. Lewis, Wash., spent 18

days in the area. All they
found was the victim of ¢
homicide, a case unrelated to
Cooper's.

'véteran FBI agent who has lived with:
the Cooper case for the past five years,
literally day and night. i
"We are continuing our investige- :
tion unabated," said Himmeisbach. "We |
don't intend to give up. 1 stili give ai
substantial portion of my time-to check: j
ing out leads. We still get several tips;
~every week. We pledged at the outset to |
investigate any information we re-;

"We have checked more than 1,000, :

gether. We have checked a long tist of
missing persons. And after five years
we still don't know if there ever was 4
'Dan Cooper. We have no more informa:
tion on his identity today thah we hac
five years:ago." \
The FBI bases its rejection of thé
_ Statute of limitations on three major
; assumptions: There is no statute of 'limi~
tations in capital crimes and air piracy:
' or aerial hijacking was a crime punish-,
cable by death in November 1971 aid'
, Tstill is. f
=» There is no statute of limitations...

cording to a vecent ruling of the Ninfh ,
-Circuit Court in a similar case. Since
, Cooper has not turned himself in he is ;
:1assumed to 'be a fugitive, if he is stilt "
'.alive. The same rule applies to his ac- -
«complices, if any, Himmelsbach ex-
plained.
Seizure of the aircraft with its 36
Passengers and crew of six could be
"considered kidnaping, a crime also ex-

' lempt from the statute of iimitations :
where injury or death is involved.

"Personally, after five years-of in-
'tensive investigation 1 lean to the con-
clusion that -Cooper 'was killed when he

' -jumped from the plane or died soon af-
-ter Janding. That makes it a capital,
verime. If he had any accomplices, which:
-is not iidicated by any evidence so far,

, 'they would be equally guilty." oo,

To back up his. conclusions, Him:
'melsbach for the first time, told the

' detailed story of the hijacking:

' "Cooper was given four para-
'chutes," Himmelsbach. said. "He cut the

$20 bills to his belt in a bag before ke

~

"He left behind the two best para-
chutes — a sky diver parachute with/a |
*32-foot canopy and a chest pack de- :

: signed primarily for use as a second

-[\ "He wore a pilot's seat pack par

chute with a 28-foot canopy. He als¢

panels were sewn together. If it had

been usable he could not have attached ¢

it to -his parachute harness, which had
no D-ritigs for use with a chest pack. No
one who knew anything about pdra-

+ chutes would have made this many niis-
: takes.

"tie also either took with bim or :

' threw out the bag int which he claimed '

to-be carrying.a bomb."

Himmelsbach declined to describe :
\ the device ia detail, for security rea- *

. sons. But it was earlier described as a
' ornde, unsophisticated device appareht-
\1y consisting of highway flares and a
: 'battery.

: He left no fingerprints in the plane,

i "Cooper cduld not have known

| Himmelsbach, an experienced' pilot,
'took off from Portland International
'Airport { in a National Guard helicopter
'as the hijacked plane passed-overhead.

"We were going to try and follow
the 727," Himmeilsbach said. "But the
'air was so rough and the clouds so low

that-we were called back before wé got.

-past downtown Portland."

The next day, Himmelsbach; who
holds a commercial pilot rating, flew
almost the entire route of the hijacked
plane in his:own. airplane, accompanied
'by an experienced Civil Air Patrol. ob-
'Server.

"We flew directly over thé area
where we tater estimated:'he had land-
.ed, but there is hardly a chance of 5eé-
-ing: even a parachute canopy in the
dense woods atid brush that cover much
"of the area."

. g About 200 officers and men.-of the
4 Armored Cavalry from Ft. Lewis,

uipped 'with five helicopters,
'shatched the target area for two weeks
'in mid-March, poking through brush
'and blackberry patches. and searching
farm: buildings:

: They found the body of a murdered'
girl. They found some parachute cano-
'pies, orange and green -= attached to
'weather balloons — but not a single
valid clue to the missing Cooper. Coop-
er 's parachute was all white, snow
'white.

"it is impossible 46 conduct a 100
per cent effective search in.some-of this
area," Himmelsbach said. "There are
acres and acres of blackberries so dense
as to be impenetrable and some of the
ferrain is too steep to be searched on
foot..A man could fall into one-of those
-backberry patches and just disappear.
'We would have to burn out the under-
'prush.or cut it out by hand to conduct a
thorough search."

"T have never 'thought Cooper went
'into the lake. From ali I've seen 1 lean to
the hypothesis that he landed in the
'dense woods either dead or mortally
'hurt. It could be years before he is
found. Planes have disappeared in that
kind of terrain and been missing for 19
"years or more."

Y When Capt. William Scott, Flight

teer Kataczak landed the 727 at Reno

The money was missing. So was the .
attache case in which he carried the .
crude dummy "bomb." The FBI found :
two personal items which they are not -
revealing, That was ali. No fingerprints, -
no clues. The hijacker even reclaimed °
the hijack note he had written when he
first boarded the plane.

Not one of the 10,000 $20 bills
Cooper obtained has turned up. TheFBI
circulated a list of the numbers to po-
lice, sheriffs and banks throughout the °
country. FBI and other agencies have -
been swamped with calls from people
who think they have found one of the
diHs. .
"We are still getting a score or More

"Obviously if it was issued aftf r

bills," Himmelsbach pointed-out.

The list-of 10,000. numbers has be 3

The FBI has not given up. The.

the airlines and law enforcement ageti-

the first one motivated-strictly by greed '
~~ led to ah airport security program:
which 'has resulted in the confiscation!

By LEVERETT RICHARDS
of The Grogontan stett

' "ON: THANKSGIVING EVE five
years 2f0, a man who said his name
_was Dan Cooper boarded Northwest
Alrline's 'fight 305 at Portland bound
for Seattle. He displayed a "bomb," de-
manded and got $200,000 In $20 bills,
then bailed out through the fear stair
'door of the Boeing 727 at 8:10 p.m. near
La Center, Wash.,
i with the money."
Cooper, errone-
ously described in
the press and radio
at the time as "D.B.
Cooper," was
hailed in some
quarters as a {otk
hero who "beat the 2
system" and got .
away with a small
fortune. Some ac- a By
claimed him as a
Robin Hood who FIGHARDS
had committed the perfect crime. Part
of the folk lore is that Cooper will be
| "home safe" Nov. 24, 1976 when the
| five-year statute of limitations expires.
| The Federat Bureau of Investigation

/

doesn't see it that way at all.

The FBI agents believe Cooper was
a bungling amateur; they think he is
almost certainly dead.

And if he or any accomplices have
survived, they are still wanted men.
There is no statute of limitations for
them — ever, says Ralph Himmeisbach,
veteran FBI agent who has lived with
the Cooper case for the past five years,
literally day and night.

"We are continuing our investiga-
tion unabated," said Himmeisbach. "We
don't Intend to give up. I still give a
substantial portion af my time to chack-

; ing out leads. We still get several tips
, every week. We pledged at the outset to
__bnvestigate any information we re-

and Oxford type street shoes. He had 20
hat or goggles.

"Parachute experts tell us his shoes
would have been snapped off his feet
when he stepped out into a 196-mile-an-
hour silpstream; his eyes world have
been blacked by the force of the wind
and he probably would have tumbled
out of contro}, He would have landed in
his stocking feet, blinded by the slip
stream, and the raging storm.

"With that 28-foat canopy he would
have descended 26 miles an hour verti-
caliy. Add a 36 to 55 mile- an-hour wind
and he would have hit at a speed of 50
to 70 miles an hour. The experts say it
is inconcetvable that he could have es-
caped serious injury or instant death —
even assuming his parachute opened. "

How does the FBI know Cooper
bailed out near La Center and landed
somewhere along the Lewis River? The
two Air Defense Command F106 jet in-
terceptors which followed the 727
through the overcast that dark, stormy
night, saw nothing. There was no radio
transmitter on the parachutes delivered
to the hijacker, which would have pet-
mitted pursuers to follow his trajectory.
as he baited out.

But the FBI, with the aid of North-
west Airlines reconstructed the whole:
hijacking six weeks after the crime. "

"The first week in January, 1972,
we flew a Northwest 727 exactly like:
flight 305 over the same route with the
same load, the same power settings, the
same flap settings, same use of landing
gear, from Seattle south. We had Will
iam Rataczak, first officer on the hi-
jacked plane, at the controls," Himmels-
back said.

"Over the Lewis River, 35 miles
north of Portland, the rear stairway
was lowered and a 235-pound sled

¥S"ceived Trom CHeIpu bic Seeks :
++ "We have checked more than 1j000,
sjnaybe' several thousand, reports alto-
gether. We have checked a long list of
missing persons. And after five years
we stil] don't know if there ever was @
Dan Cooper. We have no more informa-
tion on his Identity today than we had
five years ago."

The FBI bases its rejection of the
statute of limitations on three major
assumptions: There is no statute of limi-
tattons m capita! cmmes and air piracy
or aerial hijacking was a crime puntsh-
able by death in November 1971 and
SUE is.

There is no statute of limitations
protecting fugitives from Justice, ac-
cording to a recent ruling of the Ninth
Circuit Court in a similar case. Since
Cooper has not turned himself in he is
assumed to be a fugitive, if he is stil
alive. The same rule appiles to his ac-
complices, if any, Himmelsbach ex-
plained. -

Seizure of the aircraft with its 36
passengers and crew of six could be
considered kidnaping, a crime also ex-
empt from the statute of limitations

They didn't know he had bailed out

plane empty."

The same rapid fluctuations in alr
pressure were noted in three bailouts
from 727 airliners in the next few
months, before the FAA ordered all rear
doors rigged so they could not be
opened in flight. .

"There has not been a successful

Novel on D. B. Cooper

ITERARY TIMES: When d frost is on' the pumpkin, |
thoughts just naturally turn to. D.B, Cooper, the non- -i
parief skyiacker who parachuted into immortality, If-net a
Dougias fir, five years ago this Thanksgiving Eve. What j
will undoubtedly be one of the best books — because. it's
'being.done by one of the best writers I know _ ~ to come out
of the incident will be "King : . '
of the Midnight Blue,' by
Seattleite Darrell Bob Hous-
ton. And before you ask, the
D. B. initials are just coin - %
cidence. Our D.B. is much .. &
too tall for the -skyjacker.
Houston's novel' based onthe
incident comes out Novem: *
ber 3. "I wrote it as an in- -
flight movie," he quipped. So
far there have been.a couple
of nibbles from the movie .
folk.and Darrell Bob figures °
it" should sell, since "'it's
three parts sex to one part skyjack.'"" Houston is dickering
'for the- film rights. He's asking $200,000 . . . in 20s and
four parachutes. The accompanying picture of D.B. (ours)
' was taken when he was covering the war in Vietnam, But
xy it does look like a paratrooper's helmet. Hmmmmmm . _-

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — it
has been three years since the
skyjacker called D.B. Cooper
parachuted from a Northwest
Airlines jet with $200,000 in
. Tansom morey and wrote him-
' self into the folklore of the Pa-
. 'tific Northwest.

_ _ Two more and he'll be home
. free — if he's alive.
"The federal statute of limi-
_ tations on that crime is five
_years,"* said Sidney Lezak, U.S.
_ attorney in Portland.
: According to the U.S, Depart-
ment of Transportatian, Cooper
{is the only person ever to hi-
'Jack a domestic airliner who
yhas not been killed or brought
"to justice.

« "We know nothing more
about him today than we did at
li p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 24,
1971," says Julius Mattson, spe~
cial agent in charge of the
Portland FBI office. "1 just
wish we had something to go
on. We don't have a thing.
dust a big zero."

These are the events of that
Thanksgiving Eve as author-
ities reconstructed them:

A man who gave his name as
Dan Cooper bought a one-way
ticket at Portland International
Airport ta Seattle aboard
Northwest Airlines flight 304
which originated in Washing-
ton, D.C.

D.B. Cooper a Legend
3 Years After Caper

No antihijacking measures

were in operation as the 36 pas-:
sengers boarded the Boeing 727°

for the 23-minute flight.

tm the air, Cooper handed
Stewardess Tina Mucklow a
note saying he had a bomb.
Following Cooper's orders,
Miss Mucklow sat beside him
and wrote down instructions to
the pilot.

He wanted 10,040 $20 biiis to

be delivered to him at Seattte
in a laundry sack, along with
two sets of parachutes. Other-
wise, he would blow up the
plane, he said.

Airline officials and FBI
agents complied and Cooper

allowed the passengers and two

of the three stewardesses to
disembark at Seattle.

Then he ordered the plane to
fly south to Reno, Nev., at 200
miles per hour, at 10,000 feet,
flaps down. The crew was to
stay in the cockpit.

After takeoff from Seattle, a
red light flashed in the cockpit
indicating the plane's rear
boarding ramp had been un-
latched.

Nothire was, heard from:
Cooper for about 20 minutes. At.
'8:10 p.m., as the plane crossed

the Lewis River in south-
western Washington, Capt. Wil-

liam Scott thought the sky--
- jacker was having trouble with

the ramp and called back over
the plane's interphone:
"Anything we can do for
you?" ,
There. was-no.answet.
Another light flashed showing

the ramp was fully extended. A

few seconds later Cooper came
back on the interphone: 'No.™

That was the last ever heard
of him,

When the plane landed in
Reno, the rear ramp was down
and Cooper was gone. The 21+
pound sack of money was gone.
One set of parachutes was
gone, The skyjacker, who had
carefully reclaimed his note to

the stewardess, had left no fin-'

gerprints.

Authorities pinpointed Coop-
er's jump point near Woodland,
Wash. The little town was
transformed into a bustling
command post for a small

_home.

With planes, helicopters,

The skyjacker had ieft the
plane clad only in 2 light busi-
ness suit and street shoes. He,
parachuted into the blackness
of a raging thunderstorm, into

ing lauded him as a Robin
Hood who beat the estab-
lishment, T-shirts bearing ms
name sold by the thousands.
Then, late in March 1972, 300
soldiers combed the thawing
terrain for 18 days and found:
not a trace of Dan Cooper or
his bag of money.
Mattson says the FBI is still
actively searching for Cooper.
"T just wish we had a devel-"
opment, something to go on,"
he says. .

falmost five years ago when a m

j who identified himself as Dan Coop-
er bailed out of a Northwest Orient -

Airlines jet on a cold November
night clutching a suitcase contain- -

Not a trace of Cooper or the mon- —

Cooper bailed out somewhere in .
the vicinity of Lake Merwin. The
FBI and even Army troops literally
combed the rugged' countryside
looking for traces of either the man

up nothing. s
This November, the statute of -
limitations on the case runs out. If
Cooper is still alive, he can come
out of hiding and not be prosecuted.
Is that likely to happen? Longview
FBI Agent Tom Manning 'doesn't
think so. He has put hundreds of
hours into the Cooper case. His .
theory is that Cooper dropped into
Lake Merwin and sank out of sight,
weighted down by the parachute:

certainly is as plausible a theory'as } :
any we' ve heard but it will remain a
theory until either a person or the
mioney or both turn up.

the aircraft in Seattle.

Before it took off, Cooper was supplied with the

requested parachutes and 10,000 $20 bills. The
packet of bills, amounting to $200,000, weighed
over 24 pounds, and measured 8 by 6 by 27 inches.

Cooper demanded to go to Mexico City, but was
told the plane did not have capability for such a
flight. He then agreed to allow the plane to go to
Reno, Nev., and instructed Capt. William Scott to

fly at 10,000 feet at a speed of 200 m. P. h. with .

flaps extended 15 degrees, .
About 20 minutes after takeoff , lights came on

'in the cockpit indicating that the rear stairs in the

aircraft had been lowered. At about 8:10 p.m., the
flight engineer noticed fluctuation in the cabin
rate of pressure indicator (the only such fluctua-
tion between Seattle and Reno.)

When the Boeing 727 jetliner landed in Reno,
Cooper, along with the ransom money, was 70
longer aboard. One of the two parachutes remain-
ing in the plane had been opened, and some of the
salmon-colored shroud lines were missing, lead-
ing to a conclusion that the hijacker had tied the
money to his body, using the shroud lines..

Weather conditions at the time Cooper is be-
lieved to have jumped consisted of a ceiling of
about 2,500 feet, with some ground visible through
seattered clouds from the height of the plane.
Rain and wind from west to southwest ranged
from 25 to 45 knots. YS

The FBI, assisted by area law enforcement
agencies and military personnel, conducted a
massive search in the Lewis River area for days
after the hijacking, but found no trace of Cooper,
or his loot.

Search efforts were suspended when winter
arrived, but a large-scale hunt was resumed in
March of 1972. This time the FBI was aided by 200

troops from the 3rd Armored Cavalry at Fort
Lewis,

A grid type, inch by inch search on the grotind

was supplemented by helicopter crews, but again
authorities came up empty handed.

There have been numerous theories concerning
ooper's fate. Some people, equating him to a
odern day Robin. Hood, expressed the hope that
e survived, and would get away W with his caper:

will remain confidential.

Law enforcement officers and many citizens
took offense to that suggestion, pointing out that af
thief is still a thief, regardless of the circum
stances, and should be held fully accountable fo

his crime or crimes. "yt ob!
ere are those who doubt Cooper survived his
jump from the jetliner.

Included in that group is resident FBI Agent
Tom Manning of Longview, who was involved in
investigation of the case from the beginning, and
was a coordinator for the searches,

Manning says he feels the hijacker' Ss chances"
for survival are remote. "It is my theory that ,
Cooper | landed i in Lake Merwin, and is hung up on
a snag,'* Manning said. Due to nylon chute. and -
shroud lines, no deterioration of material has
taken place to allow the body or money to sur

'face, the agent believes.

'FBI investigation is continuing, and numerous
suspects (names primarily furnished by intérest-
ed and concerned citizens} have been thoroughly
checked out. Still, the identity of Dan (or, D. B .}
Cooper remains unknown.

'Manning said serial numbers of all of the 10, 000
$20 bills were circulated in a 34-page booklet to all
financial institutions and businesses handling
large sum8 of money, but none of the missing —
money has surfaced.

Manning is among those whe see nothing heroic

_ about Cooper's crime.

"Songs have been written about 'him, and he
has achieved status in some quarters as a folk
hero to the extent that T-shirts commemorating
his deed have sold well in some Pacific North-
west cities. The FBI does not feel he is the Robin

"Hood of the Northwest, but rather is an individual

who committed a violation of a federal statute,
Crime Aboard an Aircraft-Hijacking, and jeo-

-pardized the lives-of passengers and crew mem-

bers,"' Manning stated. . .?

~~

The FBI, aware that time is growing short with
regard to the statute of limitations, is interested

.in any information, however slight it may be,
- regarding the hijacker or his whereabouts.

Anyone having information is asked to contact
the nearest FBI office (Manning's number is 423- |:
3320). Identity of citizens offering information |:

{auderdale, Florida, after cruising down the Mexican
coastline, through the Panama Canal and exploring the
coastline of Venezucia and Colombia and the islands of the
British West Indies and the Bahamas aboard the 54-foot

wooden yaw! which had won the' 1926 Bermuda Race with
designer Alden at her helm and a schooner rig.

*"Malsbar VII," one of a dozen and a half boats personally
owned by Alden at launching, was offered for sale by the
Streeches who left her in Fort Lauderdale and returned to the
West Coast, Dan to Dana Point where he began selling boats,
and his dad to the family home in Arizona.

"This man who called himself Mike Selzer decided to buy
our boat."' Dan said, "and he'd looked at a lot of boats. He
may have bought ours because we were willing to take his
camper as a trade-in, This was about two months after
Cocper had made his getaway from the airplane.

"Selzer drove his camper to my folks' home in Arizona, and
they spent a fot of time visiting before he took off for Florida,
My di id says Selzer mentioned he had worked as a smoke
jumper.

Six weeks after Selzer delivered the camper "nearly new,
with only 2,000 miles on it," Dan said the F.B.1. turned up at
the Strecch home "and the agents said the man we knew as
Selver fitted the description of Cooper perfectly. The F.B.I.

men alse said some of the money Cooper bailed out with had
tumed up in Las Vegas."

"Malabar VIP' with new owner Mike Selzer has never
rnc up aywhere, Dan added.

BACK PACKING IN FRENCH POLYNESIA

Dan wes oa his way to the Tahiti airgort after three weeks
of hiking around the islands of Tahiti. Moorea, Huahine,
Raiatea at:d Bora Bora with a back pack. He'd gone from one
island to nother as a passenger on the copra boat "Tapora
IH," hiking days and sleeping nights'ca ve beaches. He said
the land-crabs didn't chew on him (the loca! rumor that keeps
visitors frora camping on the beaches} and very few mosquitos
took a bite: "I was taking Vitamins B 12 and B 6 and )

understaud if you do that, the mosquitos aren't interested.

Anyway, I only got one or two bites a day."

He spent about $300 in three weeks (plus $750 round-trip
air fare from Los Anpeles) and most of the places where he
camped were near native huts "and the Tahitians brought me
food.' He recalled buying "niostly bread, with lots of peanut
butter and jefty."

in his back pack: a sleey.ing bag, a bedsheet. swim fins and
mask, Sterne and freeze-dried food, one pair of long pants,
one pair of cut-ofts, a swim suit "and three or four shirts."

On Bora Bora. Dan spent two days reading a ship's log kept
by Hars Fleish "at the Oa Oa, or perhaps you spell it Oahoa

_ ihe best hotel-bargain has got to be a place in Tahiti near
Jowntown Papcete where you pay 150 franes ($274 y-Tor" a
room. Unless you want a door, then it's 200 francs.

Across from the cruising boats on Paneete's waterfront is
the Stewart Hotel (about $10), a favorite among cruising

the spectrum are the big glassy high-rise hotels where you pay
$50 and more to meet other tourists.

$20-$22), it's sandwiched between two American-style luxury
hotels and you c2n hike over to their white-sand beaches.

One of the charms of the Te Puna Bel Air is its
inconsistencics: | met four women from Sacramento who were
staying there aud they had no hot water (I did), F had a wasp
nest on my balcony (they didn't), they had ice in a tefrigcrator
Ui didn's) but} had 3 bottle of Scotch (they didn't). We pooled
our resources and scon felt we had a fuxury suite.

- Also, we met island people who treat the hotel. bar and

restiturart as a local hangout. Two of us explored a nearby
beer with Amtiicaun scuba divers who live in Tahiti, and while
we crorkeled cr the surface, they went down 190 teet and
brought up Fleck coral. . :

They called i coral whips, and it looked like wire
coa 'hangers sonione had straightened out. They said it sells
for about $3G0 a. pound locally, . ,
, ISLAND-IIOPPING BY BOAT
' Inter-island freighters offer expeditions for visitors: one is @
40-day trip with stops ut 116 islands and. stolis. and it costs

- about $300. For the visitor on a brief vacation, John Stegenga

of the schooner "Candide," four years out of Marina del Rey,
suggesied this one which he took: :

"The 'Timi Hani, a 150 foot diesel freighter, leaves.

Panecte every Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. You sleep on deck with
ether travelers, including many Tahitians who sing and dance
st night, and there arc always people playing puitars,
"The fevighter puts in a Huahini, Raiatea, Tahaa and Bora
Bora and you go zshore and buy food at the Chinese grocery
stores that are always close to the docks. You cuak on deck.
"The 'Timi Hani' brings you back to Papeete on Sunday or
Monday and you have spent about 700 francs ($10) plus
grocerics for a week-long tour of some of the most beautiful
islands Tif' the South Pacific," . eon

I «new frow the start that J wouldn't be cauahts

I didn't rob Northwest Orient because 1 thought it

would be romantic, herole or any of the other eupnedisus
that seem to attach thewselves to situations of high
risk. ' ) :

I'm no modern day Robin Hood. Unfortunately do have
only 14 nentha to live.

My life has been one of hate, turmoil, hunger and wore
hate, this seemed to be the fastest and most profitable
way to gain a few fast grains of peace of mind,

I'don't blame people for hating me for uhat I've done me
nor do 1 blaze anybody for wanting se to be saught and
punished, though this san never happen.

Here are sone (not all) of the things wording agzinst
the authorities:

I'm not a boasting man

i left no finzerprints

i wore a tirupee

i wore putty make-up

They could add or subtraet from the composite a hundred
tives and not core up with an accurate .escription; and
we both know it.

I've some and gone on several alrline flights already
and am not holed up in soze obsure backwoods town.
Neither s7 I a psycho-pathic killer, As a matter of
fast I've never sven received a speeding tiaket.

PREFACE

The 1970 version of the USPA Directory is
an expanded publication and considerably
more complete than earlier editions which

listed only those drop zones operated by
affiliated clubs.

By means of a survey type questionnaire
we have been able to list many drop zone
facilities for which previously there was little
or no information available. As a word of cau-
tion; this solicited information has not always

UNITED STATES PARACHUTE ASSOCIATION

BOARD OF DIRECTORS 1969-70

The USPA is administratively divided into twelve
conference areas, each of which is administered and
represented by a Conference Director elected by the
members of that conference. The twelve Conference
Directors share the responsibility of governing the USPA
with ten National Directors who are popularly elected
by the national membership. These twenty-two Direc-
tors are elected for two-year terms and meet as the
Board of Directors twice annually during those terms.
Their directives and the daily administration of the or-
ganization are managed by a full-time executive staff
headquartered in Monterey, California,

Re memo by SA} | dated 11/27/71.

Referenced memo sets forth information regarding
a KABC talk show wherein a caller called in and thought the
unknown subject in this case might be her husband.

The radio station did not obtain any identifying
data of the caller and there is no way that she will be able
to be identified based on information we have in this phase,
A tape recording of this female and her conversation was
obtained. The tape recording has been transcribed and is

attached-te this memo.

I have reviewed this transcription and there is no
information to indicate who the caller was, who the individual
she was talking about or anything elise that would make it
logical to pursue this phase any further.

Based on review of numerous complaint forms from
duty Special Agent's, it does not appear that the caller has
furnished information set out in the transcribed tape recording
to this office,

It is recommended no further action be taken,

Hello.

Yes.
Yes, good morning.
Are you the man on?
I'm the man, yes.
Well, I want to talk about this hijacking bit.
Alright.
I think my husband did it..
You think your husband did it?
Um hun.
What makes you think that he did it?
Well, he departed and I will refer to him as the
departed, but ah, he was a brilliant man, and
had an intensive interest in hijacking. Also
he was a paratrooper for the 10lst Air Borne and I
found out through private detectives later on he was....
Well I suggest that you contact the FBI if you really
believe that.
Well, I might do it tomorrow.
Well, don't wait, let's do it.

I think he did it though, because he was a
fantastic man, he wrote beautifully... (Inaudible)
-.-he was quite unusual.

But why would he do such a thing as this?

Why did he leave me after seven years?

I don't know, But that, only he can answer. But
why do you think he would jump out of an airplane
and take $200,000.00? Did he need the money that
badly?

Not really, because he was the kind of a guy that
didn't really care much about money but he knew

what money could do.

Is he the type of man that would do such a thing,

do you know?

I didn't think so.......

Then what gives you the idea that your former husband
would do that?

He's not my former husband.

Yeah.

Well, your runaway, arrant husband. What makes you
think that he did it?

Because of his fantastic imagination.

Well, other than having a fantastic imagination....
He was a paratrooper.

And other than being a paratrooper in the lOlst

Because he hot away with about $35,000.00, and all
Legally because somebody was (inaudible).

You mean this is the type of man that would do

such a thing?

I think he'd do it.

Younean he's bored,.and you think that he's

Oh, yes.

Um hum.

But he doesn't want it for the money really....I

I would like to find out if you contact the FBI

then I would like to know a little more

he ever mention sky diving?

Never, but he was extremely interested, remember

Well, stop and repeat the whole thing and then call

Ooo: SE

On 12/3/71 SAs|
[_] reviewed registration cards of parachutists who have
jumped from the Elsinore Paricenter at Skylark Field,
Elsinore, California.

It should be noted that there are approximately
25,000 registration cards on file going back to 1957,
however, records containing descriptive data only go back
to sometime during 1969.

Each person who makes a jump at Elsinore nust
Lill out a registration card before making a jump, regardless
of how much prior experience they have had elsewhere.
On succeeding jumps, if the individual is not known, the
card is referred to and the jumper may jump without
filling out any further logs or cards. Although receipts
are given to jumpers when they pay for tickets to jump,
names are not recorded,

After reviewing the registration cards, all
cards where the individual was between 35 - 55 years of
age and was between 5'9 ~ 6'1, and between 150 - 190
pounds, was pulled aside and photographed, including
marginal descriptions. Approximately 100 cards were
photographed,

_ _ jot
the Elsinore Paricenter, Inc. made available these records
for photographing.

questionable that large banks and bank-type institutions would

a test to determine effect on the 727 if rear air doors
were accidentally opened in mid-flight. The test was
conducted at 10,000 feet, at LO knots, very close to the
stall-out speed of the airplane. Flaps and wheels were

pressure was exerted, opening the door a total of 12 inches.
Doors could not be forced open any further, therefore test

:. 'And alias D. B. Cooper was highly orig.
'inal. He exited from a 727 in flight with
$200,000 strapped to his middle-aged body,
';and no one had thought of doing that be-
fore.

* But Dr. Otto Larsen, a University of
'Washington sociologist, thinks Cooper
cornered the public fancy for reasons far
more complex. "It was an awesome feat
'in the battle of man against machine," he
said, "One man overcoming, for the time
being anyway,, technology, the corpora-

. 'tion, the Establishment and the system. "
a People-watchers with Ph. D.'s are al-
sways carrying on like that. Skip astone
cacross a puddle and they accuse you of
smanifesting a desire to walk on water.
'"Teli them you almost have to admire a
"iniddle- aged man who parachutes from a
"720 with $206,000, and they suggest it's
'actually gratitude you're feeling because
-he beat the Establishment.
* D.B. Cooper was not out to beat the
"Establishment for us. Nor the corpora-
«tion, the system or technology. He was out
"to beat Northwest Airlines out of 200
'grand. For himself. For the same, simple,
|: "greedy reasons anyone would like to get

their hands on 200 grand.
