"We really know nothing more about him today than we did at 11 p.m. Wednes- day, Nov. 24, 1971" says Ju- lius Mattson, special agent in charge of the Portland FBI office.
Authorities said this is what happened on that Thanksgiving Eve:
A man who gave his name as Dan Cooper bought a one ? 32 ? j way ticket at Portland Inter- national Airport to Seattle aboard . Northwest Airlines' Flight 305 which originated 34 in Washington, D. C.

Airline officials and FBI. agents! complied with his requests and Cooper allowed the passengers and two of the three stewardesses to disembark at Seattle.
Then he ordered the plane to fly south to Reno, Nev., at 200 miles per hour, at 10,000 feet, flaps down. The crew was to stay in the cockpit.
After takeoff from Seattle, a red light flashed In the: cockpit. indicating the plane's rear boarding ramp had been unlatched.
Nothing was heard from Cooper for about 20 minutes. At 8:10 p.m., as the plane crossed the Lewis River in southwestern Washington,
Capt. William Scott thought the hijacker was having trou- ble with the ramp and called back over the plane's inter- phone:
"Anything we can do for you?";
There was no answer.

That was the last ever, heard of him.
When the plane landed im Reno, the rear ramp was; down and Cooper was gone .: The 21 pound sack of money was gone. One set of para- chutes was gone. The sky- jacker, who had carefully reclaimed his note. to the stewardess, had left no fin- getprints.

But last week, on the sec ond. anniversary of the hi jacking, the Oregon Journa 'newspaper offered $1,000 tc anyone who could produce one of the $20 bills. There have been no takers.
Mattson says a number of FBI agents have worked on the case, to no avail.

Cooper $20 Bill Hunt
Gets $1,000 4
Y
Are you checking the seri- al numbers of the $20 bills in your possession against the list being published in The Journal of bills given to the aircraft hijacker identified as D.B. or Dan Cooper?
It's . a > fascinating game which could pay you $1,000 for one of the Cooper 20s and could result in solution of one of law enforcement's most baffling cases.
Checking serial numbers
has resulted in solution of two Pacific Northwest crimes in the past decade, according to files of the FBI.
The Bank of California in Tacoma. Wash,, was robbed Feb. 14, 1966 of $9,850 and the amount included 10 $20 bills that could be identified by serial number.

Numbers of the bills were circularized by Tacoma po- dice in shopping centers and a few days later a man was arrested after he passed two bills identifiable as part of the bank robbery money.
He said he stole the money from a parked car, but in subsequent investigation he and two.other.men were im- plicated in the bank robbery and each was later sen- tenced to prison.
The second case had thrill- ing overtones and involved the leaving of $25,000 at a specified site in Anchorage.
The second case had thrill- ing overtones and involved the leaving of $25,000 at a specified site in Anchorage.
Alaska, in answer to a de- mand from a man who tele- phoned an airline that. "a crooked egg" (bomb) was aboard a Seattle-bound jet- liner "" and .. would ' explode when the plane descended to 10,000 feet. *
The jet had : 118 passen- gers, including 72 children, and 9 crew members aboard. Under those conditions, the airline arranged for the mon- ey to be delivered to the des- ignated site and then await- ed a call to describe the hid- ing place of the bomb -and how to disarm it.
The call never came and eventually the jet had -to jand after five tension-filled hours and did so at Seattle. with people. praying and holding their breath. There was no bomb.
But in the bundle of bills making up the $25,000 was a number of bills in which the serial numbers had been re- corded and these numbers, were distributed to airlines." banks, savings and loan as- sociations. car rental compa- nies, hotels, finance compa- nies, grocery stores and oth- er places.
" banks, savings and loan as- sociations. car rental compa- nies, hotels, finance compa- nies, grocery stores and oth- er places.
The "extortion : occurred Aug. 11, 1970. In mid-Sep- tember one of the . identifia- ble bills turned up in a bank. FBI agents traced the bill to an apartment house manag- er, then to a renter of an apartment and finally to an- other bank. Eventually it was determined that a man
who had paid cash for rent- ing a car on Aug. 12: had lived in the area of the pay- off site," all because of- the one bill that turned up.
Still "later, the \ Klamath Falls Police Department in- quired about a man who had arrived in that city with a large amount of money and had paid off his wife's debts. FBI agents. based in Port- land- determined that the man had been a big spender while in Oregon, giving his wife $1,400, his mother-in- law $400, paying $100 to a bar owner for loss of a bar- maid for; one night, buying two cars and spending $500 to $1,000 per evening buying drinks . for customers in, a bar.

Sept. 20, 1970, the FBI ar- rested a. West German citi-t zen in Portland and he ad- mitted making the hoax calls to the airline.

The Journal is making its "Secret Witness" plan avail- able for' use in helping re- cover the "Cooper cash," the $200,000 that disappeared the night of Nov. 24, 1971, with the parachuting ~ hijacker "popularly known as. D. . B. Cooper.
The plan can be used with or separate from the news- paper's offer to pay $1,000 for the first $20 bill to be turned in that can be verified by the FBI to be part of the money Cooper obtained from Northwest Orient Airlines. prior to jumping from a jet- liner he had commandeered. It can be used to return the ;. money, enter into negotia- tions for its return or to pro- vide information on the whereabouts of the elusive hijacker.
The "Secret Witness" plan "Will enable someone with one or more of the missing bills to surrender the money and still keep his or her identity secret.
Here is how to use the plan:
1. Place the money in a place of your choosing and write ' down instructions for locating it ..
2. Do not sign your name, but on both lower corners of the first page write a code. using any combination of
numbers and letters.

[ "Suppose someone had found the .. money, and has been holding onto it afraid to turn it in, or has even spent some of it and then become afraid of the consequences; such a person might wel- come the 'Secret Witness' opportunity," Mattson add- ed.
There has long been specu -; lation that the hijacker per- ished in his nocturnal leap from the jetliner. and that some day a hunter. or hikerze would find his body or the money somewhere along the flight path of the aircraft be- tween Seattle and Reno. It is this . possibility .to which Mattson refers.FD-350 (Rev. 7-16-63)

List Of $20 Numbers Spurs Hunt For D.B. Cooper
By ROLLA J. CRICK Journal Staff Writer
The search goes on.
For two years, the FBI has combed the woods for a clue to the location of the airline hijacker who called himself Dan Cooper and of the $200,000 he extorted from Northwest Orient Airlines.
For two years, the FBI has combed the woods for a clue to the location of the airline hijacker who called himself Dan Cooper and of the $200,000 he extorted from Northwest Orient Airlines.
"We've never stopped looking for the man or the money or both," J. Earl Milne, agent in charge of the Seattle office of the FBI, in -. formed The Journal Tuesday in thanking the newspaper for publishing the serial numbers of the missing $20 bills.
The baffling Cooper case falls under the jurisdiction of . the Seattle FBI office be- cause the actual extortion of the money occurred in Seat- tle, although the crime had its beginning in Portland.
1
"Leads continually are being received and we check them out," Milne said.
"But I would like to add my continued plea for people to look for the missing bills. If we could recover just one of those $20 bills, it would put us far ahead of where we. have been."
The Journal is offering $1,000 for the first of the missing bills to be turned in either to the newspaper or to any office of the FBI. Au- thenticity of the bill as a part of the Cooper ransom money will be verified by the FBI and then, The Journal will pay the $1,000 to the per- son who
Au- thenticity of the bill as a part of the Cooper ransom money will be verified by the FBI and then, The Journal will pay the $1,000 to the per- son who had it.
The reward offer has at- tracted attention across the nation. Inquiries .: about it. have been received by the; newspaper from as far away as Virginia, New York, Los Angeles and Hawaii.
Reproduction of the FBI's official 34-page booklet of the 10,000 ."Cooper cash" serial numbers was started in The Journal Thanksgiving Day and will be continued in installments." Persons - who; cannot easily obtain copies ; of the newspaper could in -. quire at the FBI office near- est their home cities as to whether they could obtain or inspect a copy of the FBI's: dist.
Since making the reward offer, The Journal has re ferred to the FBI informal, tion coming to it on the find- ing of part of a parachute at the 6,700-foot level on the northeast slope of Mt. Hood.
The find was' recent and may have no connection with the Cooper case, but Julius Mattson, agent in charge of the Portland office of the FBI, said a part of the find" is being sent .
The find was' recent and may have no connection with the Cooper case, but Julius Mattson, agent in charge of the Portland office of the FBI, said a part of the find" is being sent .to" Seattle "for" comparison / with `what is known about the four para-) chutes delivered to the hi- jacker. The parachutes and the money were delivered to "Cooper" as ransom for the passengers and some crew members of the jet he com- mandeered out of Portland.
Milne said the composite. picture of the hijacker pub- lished on Page 1 of this edi- tion of The Journal "is the best likeness we have ever, had of the man.
The hijacker bought a tick- et to Seattle, giving the name Dan Cooper, about an hour before he boarded NWA flight 305 at Portland Inter- national Airport on Thanks- giving Eve, 1971. He hand- ed his demand note to 'a stewardess, displayed what; appeared to be a dynamite bomb in the briefcase he car- ried, and warned, "No fun- ny stuff.'
The crew cautioned against intervention ' from law enforcement people for fear the hijacker would car- ry out his threat. The · jet spent several hours on the ground at Seattle while the money was rounded up.

The crew cautioned against intervention ' from law enforcement people for fear the hijacker would car- ry out his threat. The · jet spent several hours on the ground at Seattle while the money was rounded up. Then the passengers and all but a skeleton crew were released and the 737 took off toward Reno.
The hijacker disappeared from the jetliner after the rear stairway was lowered in flight. So did the money.
Cooper spoke in a low voice' and intelligently. There was no particular ac-" cent,- according to the wit- nesses, although possibly he spoke as someone from the mid-West section of the Unit- ed States.
He smoked Raleigh filter- tipped cigarets. He was dressed in a black or brown suit, narrow black tie, white;1 shirt, black rain-type over-a coat or topcoat and brown shoes. He carried a dark briefcase and a paper bag.
:** During' part of the flight,; he put on dark wrap-around sunglasses with dark frames.
He was thought to be in his: mid-40s, 5 feet 10 to 6 feet, 170 to 180 pounds and had an olive or: Latin appearance .; `He parted his dark hair on the left and combed it back .?

WHERE IS D. B. COOPER?
141 :24 10 1975
BY B.J. MCFARLAND PORTLAND, ORE. (UPI) -- IT'S THANKSGIVING TIME AND THOUGHTS AROUND HERE NOT ONLY TURN TO TURKEY, PUMPKIN PIE AND FOOTBALL, BUT ALSO TO D. B. COOPER, HISTORY'S FIRST AND ONLY SUCCESSFUL PARACHUTING SKY BANDIT. WHERE IS HE AND WHERE DID HE STASH THE CASH?
1
THREE YEARS AGO ON THANKSGIVING EVE COOPER WENT ABOARD A NORTHWEST ORIENT AIRLINES FLIGHT IN PORTLAND FOR A SHORT HOP TO SEATTLE.
THE PLANE WASN'T AIRBORNE MUCH MORE THAN FIVE MINUTES WHEN ONE OF THE MORE BIZARRE CRIMES IN HISTORY WAS COMMITTED.
THE PLANE WASN'T AIRBORNE MUCH MORE THAN FIVE MINUTES WHEN ONE OF THE MORE BIZARRE CRIMES IN HISTORY WAS COMMITTED.
COOPER, THREATENING TO SET OFF AN EXPLOSIVE DEVICE, DEMANDED AND GOT $ 200, 000 IN $20 BILLS DELIVERED, ALONG WITH THREE PARACHUTES, TO THE PLANE IN SEATTLE. THEN AFTER ALLOWING THE PASSENGERS TO DEBARK, HE ORDERED THE CREW TO FLY THE 727 TO RENO, NEV., FOLLOWING A COURSE DOWN THE WESTERN SECTOR OF WASHINGTON AND OREGON BEFORE CUTTING ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS ON A DIRECT FLIGHT TO RENO. SOMEWHERE IN ROUTE HE BAILED OUT VIA THE TAIL EXIT.
NO TRACE OF COOPER OR THE MONEY EVER WAS FOUND.
IT SET OFF A CHAIN OF SIMILAR SKYJACKINGS THAT CHANGED THE FACE OF AIR TRAVEL THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.
