On May 1, 1972, I called SA HENRY SCHUETZ at the Bureau and told him that we had received information from the news media wherein the Seattle Flag, an underground newspaper in Seattle, had a headline article which would be on the street on May 2, 1972, reportedly containing an interview with the hijacker and displaying a copy of the bill, serial number of which coincided with one of the hijacked bills.

I told him that a very quick look at the article showed substantial discrepancies. In addition, we were checking the microfilm of the hijacked bills to see if it coincided with the bill reportedly in the newspaper and I would let him know.
