[...]g ran several pages of purport- interview with Cooper, and two [s]ap County men were arrested selling a fake interview with [Coo]per to a former contributing [edi]tor of Newsweek for $30,000. Five months ago, two Tacoma [me]n said they had talked with
D.B. Cooper, who, they said, was living in Puyallup. The man told them that the money was buried under a pile of garbage at the Puyallup dump.
Mostly, however, people just have had fun with the D.B. Cooper story. T-shirts with the picture of D.B. Cooper in his sunglasses and bearing the legend, "D.B. Cooper, Where Are You?" became popu- lar, and there even was a song written about him.
The residents of Ariel, Cowlitz County, near where Cooper sup- posedly bailed out, started holding an annual "D.B. Cooper Day" to commemorate the event. The fes- tival, called the "Cooper Caper," featured bear stew and sky divers and attracted more than 800 peo- ple. But not, apparently, D.B. Cooper.

"It is my personal opinion that he is dead," said Joseph O'Con- nell, who has retired. "He jumped out of a plane at 10,000 feet on a cold, raw night and he jumped in an area densely populated with Douglas fir and ponderosa pine."
Ralph Himmelsbach, Portland F.B.I. agent who is to retire Feb- ruary 29, said he was "delighted" about the money being found. He said the find reduced the chances of Cooper ever being found alive
