Search continues for D. B. Cooper
Federal Bureau of Investigation agents, aided by Army troops from Fort Lewis, continued their Southwest Washington search today for the parachuting hijacker known as D. B. Cooper.
It was the fifth day of a renewed search of the area around the boundary between Clark and Cowlitz Counties.
If any new clues were turned up, the F. B. I. wasn't saying. "There's nothing to talk about," said Paul Bibler, assistant special agent in charge of the Seattle office of the F. B. I.
About 200 Fort Lewis soldiers, nine Army helicopters and F. B. I. agents led by J. Earl Milnes, head of the Seattle F. B. I. office, searched wooded hills and valleys yesterday for the hijacker's body, the money, a parachute or any other trace of the fugitive.
The hijacker is believed to have bailed out over the area with $200,000 ransom money given him in Seattle November 24 after he commandeered a Northwest Orient Airlines 727.
Serial numbers of the 10,000 $20 bills were circulated to banks and business estab[lishments] across the countr[y], but none has surfaced, the F. B. I. said.
