Original Toronto Star caption: Bodies of two slain girls were found today in a rubble-strewn field off Wilson Ave. near Keele St. in North York. They were identified after an autopsy as Donna Stearne and Wendy Tedford; both 19; of Downsview. Their bodies were discovered by a student taking a short cut to school. Detectives are shown on the scene looking for evidence and are making a house-to-house check for possible witnesses. The area was cordoned off to keep out the curious.
