Dan Cooper bill not given to boy

Brian Ingram, the 8-year-old Van- couver, Wash., boy who discovered some of the Dan Cooper skyjacking ran- som last week, was not given one of the deteriorated bills, as was reported Tues- day in some editions of The Oregonian.

The boy actually was given a $20 bill made to look like one of the tattered bills, in addition to a certificate praising him for his find. Both items came from the Hough Elementary School PTA.

Meanwhile in Washington, D.C., FBI laboratory technicians have been unable to determine how much money was in the three bundles of Cooper's recovered as a result of young Ingram's find.

"The $20 bills were so badly deteri- orated that we have been unable to count it," said FBI spokesman Otis Cox. He said no fingerprints were found on the bills.

The bills were identified as part of Cooper's $200,000 by their serial num- bers.
