LEWIS said the man in the photographs showed to him by the FBI is not the man he be- lieves to be "Cooper." [illegible] Mrs. David (Joy) Jensen, manager of the wig store, said the man in two photographs showed to her looked familiar. "It was just a man that if I saw him I would recognize him," she said. [illegible] She said she remembered the man as one of three men who came to the store about three months ago and bought nothing after the man in the FBI photos spent an hour trying on wigs of different styles and colors. She said it was unusual that three men would spend so much time in a wig shop. Her shop caters pri- marily to women. Mrs. Jensen said one of the photos showed a man with a wig, the other without the wig. She said the pictures were tak- en in front of her shop. THE SUN also quoted two barbers and a drugstore cash- ier who said the FBI had showed photographs to them. The barbers and cashier said the man looked familiar, but they didn't know his name. "Cooper" is the only extor- tionist-hijacker yet to be cap- tured. He staged his hijacking on a flight from Portland, Ore., to Seattle. After he was supplied with four parachutes and $200,000 in $20 bills, he allowed the passengers to leave the plane. Then he ordered a low flight at 10,000 altitude to Reno. The hijacker, the loot and two of the parachutes were gone when the 727 landed at [guess: Reno]. Analysis of flight data later indicated he left the plane over Southwest Washing- ton.
