Ask hunters to watch for skyjack loot

SEATTLE, Wash. (AP) — Hunters moving into the south- west Washington wilds for the opening of the general hunting season Saturday have been asked to look for $200,000 — the money Northwest Airlines paid to the hijacker known as D. B. Cooper. And they have been offered a $25,000 reward if they come up with the whole amount. The re- ward scales down to 15 per cent of any lesser amount recov- ered. Cooper, the only successful parachute hijacker, is believed to have bailed out of a North- west 727 jetliner last Thanksgiving Eve somewhere over the southwest Washington area. Law enforcement agencies have scoured the area several times but without suc- cess. Northwest, still convinced Cooper didn't survive the jump, hopes a hunter will stumble on the loot.
