Search For Skyjacked Bills Revives 'D.B. Cooper' Song

By ROLLA J. CRICK Journal Staff Writer

Remember the song, "D.B. Cooper: Where Are You?" Since The Journal made its offer to pay $1,000 for the first $20 bill turned in from the money the man popular- ly known as D.B. Cooper parachuted into the night with, the song has been played periodically on disc jockey programs. It had almost faded away, but the new Cooper publicity gave it new life. It was written by Judy Sword, 25, of Baker, a gui- tarist now singing in a Yaki-

ma, Wash., supper club. She was in Astoria when the hi- jack occurred and the name 'D.B. Cooper' was on every- one's lips. Whether prophetically or not, she wrote lyrics and mu- sic within two weeks of the incident and indicated that Cooper died hanging in a tree in the shrouds of a para- chute while his stolen money drifted to the ground. The song further empha- sized the D.B. Cooper name in the minds of the public in

those first weeks as the search for the hijacker ranged from Seattle to Reno. It enjoyed another brief round of popularity a year ago when FBI agents and Army troops from Ft. Lewis, Wash., combed the woods of Cowlitz County. And now it's playing again. Ironically, though, D.B. Cooper is the wrong name. Somehow in the first hours after the hijack the name D.B. Cooper cropped up and stuck. It may have been be- cause the FBI was checking on an individual whose name really was D.B. Cooper, but he was in jail at the time of the hijack. When the hijacker bought his Portland to Seattle ticket in Portland, he gave the name Dan Cooper. The FBI now officially identifies the man they want as Dan Coop- er. That name was obtained by a process of elimination as the only passenger left on the 727 jetliner in Seattle af- ter the hijacker let the oth- er passengers go. Curiously, there was a bona fide Cooper who got off the still-to-be-hijacked plane at Portland. The FBI investigated him and deter- mined that he had not flown on to Seattle and thus could not be the hijacker. His first name was not Dan; it was Michael. Dan Cooper was not the right name for the hijacker in any case, the FBI be- lieves. But whether Dan or D.B. or Rumpelstiltskin Cooper, the FBI would like to talk to him, if he is the hijacker. And The [guess: Journal] willing to pay first $20 of [illegible] be turned in; of some of [illegible] right.
