Capt.  J.T. Wilson said officers were called to 2112 16th Street near
the intersection of 16th and Atlantic streets at 5:28 p.m. and found
two bodies, a 45-year-old male and a 47-year-old female.  The pair had
apparently been bludgeoned.  The woman was believed to have lived in the
house, which contains several apartments. 

Police blocked off a portion of 16th Street and questioned witnesses
as the medical examiner's investigators evaluated the crime scene at
the two-story brown house, the yard ringed with a chain-link fence.
