River Today

East Hartford, Conn. Oct. u.s.
(UP)-The bodies Of two small BOYS
lost since October Is were found to-
day floating in the Connecticut river
not far from where the youngsters
were last seen alive.
The bodies were those Of Robert
bruce, five. and Robert Belanger,
four, for whom a widespread search
had been underway for more than
a week by East Hartford police, state
police. national guard troops, CCC
boys, and volunteers.
The parents of the two youngsters,
after several days passed without
trace of the bxoys, held to the theory
some stranger might have taken
them away. Neighbors campaigned
to raise a reward fund which today
exceeded 500.
The hundreds of volunteers had
conducted q 24-hour scare hof low
lying meadows along the river bank
for days without success, while ex-
pert rivermen dragged the river.
The bodies were discovered today
when they rose to the surface.
