; any statement abut the FBI investigation , here. >. But Milnes told the Associated Press . in Seattle today that Army units from Ft. Lewis have been pulled out of the area southeast of Woodland in the Merwin Dam vicinity, where a search for clues in the Cooper case has been conducted. "We don't have a mass of men there any longer but we are still working on it," Milnes said. He declined to tell the AP whether any evidence has been found in the investiga- tion. The search in southwestern Washington was resumed last month. Authorities said none of the marked currency given the hi- jacker had turned up. Mrs. David (Joy) Jenson, manager at King Imports, said four FBI agents have been to the store three days this week. She said she was shown two photos. One day she said she was shown a photo of a man without the wig and another day she was shown a photo of a man with a wig. She said the man in the photos looked familiar. "It was just a man that if I saw him I'd recognize him." Mrs. Jensen said she remembered when

the photos were taken "a couple of months ago." Three men came in at that time, she said. She remembered that the man in the photo tried on wigs because "he was ir- ritating in a way and they spent an hour trying different colors and styles and then they didn't buy." Mrs. Jensen said it was unusual that three men would spend so much time in the wig shop. Photos were taken just in front of the shop, she said. "They kept running in and out and trying different ones on," she said. In addition to seeking the identity of the man in the photos, the FBI is question- ing William "Jack" Lewis, 32, of Seavue Estates near Seabeck. Lewis, who told The Sun he believes he might know the identity of the skyjacker, said he has been visited by FBI agents "at least eight times" since last Saturday. "I've seen seven or eight agents," he said. Lewis is reportedly has declined to tell the FBI who he thinks the skyjacker is. He contends that he has no proof.

Lewis said agents visited him at his home "last night and informed him of his rights. He said they agreed to leave him alone until his attorney, Curtis Coons, returns Sunday from California. Speaking to The Sun by telephone, Lewis acknowledged that his telephone might be wiretapped. "I've spoken to Northwest Bell and I know how it's being tapped," Lewis com- mented. He said telephone officials didn't admit the wiretapping, but they told him about wiretapping procedures and informed him what wiretap evidence is admissable in court. FBI agents have asked Lewis not to speak with "certain persons" about the questioning, he said, but they didn't say he shouldn't speak with the press . . . or with the man he thinks may have commit- ted the crime. Lewis is a part-owner of Perl's Dance Pavilion, is a land developer in partner- ship with his father, William B. Lewis of Seabeck, and says he is a representative of a firm called World Wide Engineering. That firm, Lewis said, markets — among: (Continued on Page 2, Col. 1)
