ROLLA J. CRICK, A STAFF WRITER FOR THE OREGON JOURNAL, A PORTLAND DAILY NEWSPAPERN APPARENTLY REVIEWED THE AFFIDAVIT AFTER IT WAS FILED AND AFTER IT WAS PUBLIC RECORD. IN A STORY APPEARING IN THE NOVEMBER 7TH EDITION OF THE OREGON JOURNAL HEADLINED "INVESTIGATION OF BANK ROBBERIES DISCLOSES D. B. COOPER LINK", CRICK REPORTED "THE NAME D. B. COOPER, MADE NOTORIOUS BY THE INDIVIDUAL WHO TOUCHED OFF A ROUND OF AIRPLANE HIJACKINGS,... HAS CROPPED UP IN THE INVESTIGATION HERE OF A MAN SUSPECTED OF A SERIES OF PORTLAND AREA BANK ROBBERIES. INFORMA- TION SUPPORTING THE COMPLAINT RESULTING IN THE ARREST TUESDAY OF ARVIDIS JULIUS KIPERTS, 41, VANCOUVER, WASHINGTON, SUGGESTS A MAN OF HIS DISCRIPTION HAND PRINTED THE NAME D. B. COOPER ON A BANK DEPOSIT SLIP MOMENTS BEFORE ROBBING THE WILSONVILLE BRANCH OF THE OREGON BANK IN DECEMBER, 1971." THIS STORY APPEARED TO AROUSE LITTLE ATTENTION IN THE PORTLAND AREA. END PAGE TWO
