(N.Z.P.A -Reuter—Copyright) ’VANCOUVER, (Washington). October 14.
The skeletal remains of two, and possibly three, people have been recovered in a heavily-wooded area 24 i miles north-west of Washington. •. A hunter found a skull on Saturday morning, and a I search during the week-end | led to the finding of a second skull, lower jawbone, [teeth, and other bones in an [area 150 feet in diameter. A vertebra, much larger I than the other bones in the search area, was also found, and detectives are trying to determine if it belongs to a third body. Long hair and other characteristics indicate that the bodies were those of females in their late teens or early twenties. The authorities in the state of Washington have been looking for months for four young women who disappeared from college campuses early this year.
