Bones found by hunters near Cougar

Bones found by three hunters near Cougar Sunday may be those of a Bat- tle Ground youth who became lost hunting last November according to the Cowlitz County Sheriff's Office.

There was some speculation that the skeletel parts might be the remains of famed skyjacker D. B. Cooper, but authorities said it is more likely they are those of 16-year-old James Annis, who was reported missing east of Cou- gar on Nov. 13, 1971.

Glen C. Johnson, of Camas, Carl Campbell and Charles M. Campbell, both of Amboy, found the bones scat- tered over a fairly wide area on rugged terrain Sunday.

They were leading a search party back to the spot today according to Sheriff Chuck Gill. Dr. D. F. Winebren- ner, county coroner, Undersheriff Bill Stuart and Deputy Sheriff Bob Swanson were among those making the trip.

The sheriff said several skeletel parts were found, including a skull with the lower jaw missing, but the upper teeth intact.

The hunters found no clothing, ri[guess: fle] or personal belongings of the victim.
