'Pot of gold' for hunters

A $25,000 finders-fee re- ward for the return of the D. B. Cooper ransom money was announced late yester- day by Northwest Orient Air- lines. A man using Cooper's name parachuted with $200,000 on November 24, 1971, from a Northwest jet.

The reward coincides with the opening of hunting sea- son. The airline hopes hunt- ers might find the ransom.

Donald W. Nyrop, airline president, said a reward of 15 per cent will be paid for anyone finding any part of the ransom.

Cooper jumped from the rear door of a 727 after collection 10,000 $20 bills.
