FBI Expects to Suspend Search Along River for Hijacking Loot

VANCOUVER, Wash. (AP) -- The search along a Columbia River beach for more money from the "D.B. Cooper" hi- jacking eight years ago probably will be suspended this morning, FBI officials said Thursday night. Meanwhile, the FBI said a geologist had concluded that several thousand dollars found Sunday by an 8-year-old boy had been deposited on the beach after 1974. FBI agents digging Thursday found no more of the $200,000 that Cooper took with him when he bailed out of the plane on Thanksgiving eve in 1971. Jack Pringle, assistant agent in charge of the Seattle FBI office, said geologist Leonard Palmer had concluded that dredging in 1974 had not deposited the money on the beach because the bills were found above the clay placed on the banks by the dredge. The FBI speculated that the bills could have washed into the Columbia from a tributary.
