based this belief on three facts. The first fact being that the money was rounded off on the corners, which would indicate a rolling motion and would indicate the flow of the river. The second fact was that the money was found in the surface layer of the upper reworked beach sand. The third fact was that the distribution of the money was in this surface layer only, and none was found to be in the post dredging sand.

The third fact was that the distribution of the money was in this surface layer only, and none was found to be in the post dredging sand. When reminded of the fact that the rubber bands holding the money together were still in place, but extremely brittle and crumbled upon touch,
stated that the condition of the rubber bands would tend to lend credence to the assumption that the money had been at the location where found a longer period of time. Even with this, he still felt the money was not at the site for more than a year. At the height found, the money was definitely de- posited more than four years after the dredging of the Columbia River in 1974. He also added that he felt certain that the money did not work its way up through the post dredging sand to the upper layer.
found during his work at the site and areas surrounding the site, that the clay lump (dredged) sand ranging from a depth of approximately four feet, 25 yards from the money site, to only two feet where the money was found. He advised that this could be caused by many reasons, but most probably caused by the different elevations of the beach sand at

AT PORTLAND, OREGON
Waterways Maintenance Branch, Navigation Division, U.S. Army Engineer District, 319 S.W. Pine, telephone was contacted regarding dredging operations on the Columbia River since November 24, 1971. The purpose of obtaining this information was to determine if it was possible that the bait money located on the beach property on the Vancouver, Washington, on February 10, 1980, could have been placed there through dredging operations on the Columbia River.
after a review of his records, advised that the only dredging operation between November 24, 1971, and the present in the vicinity of the was during August 6 through September 18, 1974. .
Material dredged from the river channel in the Columbia River was placed in several locations on or near the as well as one location across the river on the Oregon side.
The dredge material deposited at the site where the money was located came from the north half of the ship channel, which is 300 feet wide, between river mile 96 plus 38 feet and river mile 97 plus 17 feet.

The dredge material deposited at the site where the money was located came from the north half of the ship channel, which is 300 feet wide, between river mile 96 plus 38 feet and river mile 97 plus 17 feet. This material was deposited on the beach area of the between August 19 through the 25th, 1974, and consisted of 91,100 cubic yards of fill.
The channel is maintained at 40 feet in depth and all the material above 40 feet is dredged out. The dredge "Washington" of the General Construction Company did the dredging on this project. It had a 24 inch pipe with wiper bar inside the pipe. The wiper bar keeps large objects such as rocks from passing through the pipe. stated it would be possible for a 16x16x4 inch pack- age to get through the pipe; however, it is likely that a nankane that size or a human body or parts thereof would

The material deposited on the beach was spread with tractors probably over a area of 50 yards in each direction. Because of the flow of the Columbia River, sand deposited on the bank by the dredge is washed away. Additionally, an amount of dredge material deposited on the beach slides back into the river.
added that the dredge works 24 hours a day and any objects such as money or bones would go unnoticed if deposit- ed on the shore during the night.
provided six aerial photographs of the Columbia River which show the area where the 1974 dredge material was deposited on the The September 6, 1974, photographs show the deposit left after the dredging and is marked to indicate where the money was located. The August 9, 1970, photographs show the area before the dredging, and the September 29, 1979, photographs show the area as it appears at present.
also provided a chart titled Columbia River Willow Bar, dated December 4, 1979, which has been marked to show the location of the money, dredge material, and area of the channel that was dredged.

advised the only likely river feeding the Columbia River within the above described drop zone that would be capable of moving several bundles of money or a package about 16x16x4 inches to the Columbia River would be the Washougal River. A logical time, if the money came down the Washougal, would have been during the December 2, 1977 Washougal flood when parts of the river were approximately ten feet over the normal winter flood stage.
There are several other streams that feed the Columbia River upstream from the however, due to size, or the degree of slope of the streams, it is unlikely that a small package would have made it to the Columbia. It is also unlikely that a small package would have passed through Lacamas Lake downstream to the Columbia.
stated that based on the three feet per second b6 speed of the Columbia River, if a small package entered the Columbia b70 River at Washougal, Washington, and floated in the main stream of the river to the a distance approximately thirty miles, it would take 14.7 hours. This is assuming that the package did not tumble along the bottom of the river or get caught on any snags.

The most impressive analysis was the use of a $36,000 experimental . laser beam process to detect . fingerprints.
The process was created accidentally by Xerox of Canada_ when it tried using laser beams to . photocopy documents. Fingerprints would show up on the paper, making the process unworkable.
The substance the laser detects. 'from fingertip contact is unknown." .. The device, however, has been successfully used in detecting ; fingerprints that were not visible : through conventional chemical and powder detection.
Those conventional chemical tests .. also were applied to the D.B. Cooper- money, seeking grease or oil fingerprint stains and amino acid' fingerprint stains.
All four systems turned up nothing., The money had been exposed to the , waters of the Columbia River too long. It was impossible to detect any ; fingerprint traces, even those of .; Brian Ingram, the 8-year-old boy who found the money ch Tena Bar near, Vancouver.

SUSPECT NORMAN KARL ALLEN (#14)
Records of the Seattle Credit Bureau as reviewed
by SE on 11/29/71 for NORMAN KARL ALLEN reflect the following identifying information:
<figure><table><tr><td>Date of Birth</td><td>9/25/34</td></tr><tr><td>Place of Birth Height</td><td>St. Paul, Minnesota 6'</td></tr><tr><td rowSpan=4>Residences</td><td>1934 Ballinger Way (6/29/60) ;</td></tr><tr><td>4706-17th N.E.

The only listing for Harbor Service that could be located in the current edition of the Seattle telephone directory is found under "Mike's Harbor Service, 14458 Ambaum S.W., telephone CH 2-9945."
In this connection, Bellevue PD source has previously advised that ALLEN lived in the Burien area several years ago and it is quite possible that he may have been employed or had close friends at the Ambaum Boulevard S.W. address.

Search for Cooper goes on
Ey DENISE MEYER
VANCOUVER, Wash. (AP) - ,If Dan Cooper still is alive, he's prob -. ably laughing at all the hoopla that some people are raising over his dra- matic airplane hijacking 11 years ago Thanksgiving eve.
The hoopla has been expensive for Richard Tosaw, a retired lawyer and former FBI agent from Ceres, Calif., who estimates he has paid $25,000 in the past year in efforts to find the enigmatic folk hero.
"I intend to search until I find him," Tosaw said Wednesday after a fruitless 21/2 hours spent dragging the Columbia River near here.
Nov. 24, 1971, a man calling him- self-Dan Cooper hijacked a Northwest; Airlines jet and then parachuted out over Southwest Washington with, $200,000 he

SOME PRESS SOURCES HAVE HEADLINED HIS ACTIVITIES AS "FORMER FBI AGENT CONTINUES SEARCH" AND "SEARCH FOR COOPER GOES ON, " TO THE EXTENT WHERE PORTLAND HAS FOUND IT NECESSARY TO CLARIFY THAT TOSAW IS NO LONGER ASSOCIATED OR EMPLOYED WITH THE FBI. (FBIHQ PERSONNEL DIVISION ADVISED SA
ON NOVEMBER 4, 1982 THAT TOSAW WAS A SPECIAL AGENT FROM MARCH 19, 1951 TO DECEMBER 16, 1955, AND RESIGNED 27. YEARS AGO. )
PORTLAND HAS BEEN ADVISED BY LOCAL NEWS MEDIA SOURCES THAT TOSAW IS "USING" THE FBI TO ESTABLISH CREDIBILITY FOR HIS BOOK AND USING THE PRESS AND HIS "SEARCH" FOR FREE PUBLICITY. FOR THAT REASON MANY LOCAL TV, RADIO STATIONS, AND THE OREGONIAN HAVE RECENTLY REFUSED TO CARRY STORIES CONCERNING HIS ACTIVITIES. THE OREGONIAN, PORTLAND'S MAJOR NEWSPAPER, DID NOT CARRY THE RECENT UPI WIRE SERVICE STORY.
