SRA THOMAS MANNING later advised that Weihouser would have two "choppers" coming from Tacoma to the Woodland, Wn., airport at dawn tomorrow. Also the US Forest Service would have a small chopper there. He asked that the US Navy choppers meet them at the same airport. To reach him through the Woodland PD ask the operator for the Woodland City Hall number.
