Couple, Eight-Year-Old Son Missing

Following information given them by unnamed sources, FBI agents tonight searched the apartment of Harold (Hal) and Laura Connors, who are wanted for questioning in the Femmer Laboratory bombing. The couple, who has been active in a movement known as Air, Water, Earth (AWE), have not been seen for over a week. The FBI has refused to release any information on the missing couple and their child.

When questioned, neighbors described the couple as “lovely people,” “so gentle,” “devoted to their little boy.” One neighbor in their modest apartment building, Mrs. Rita Ritzo, cried as she talked about the family. “I’m all alone. I lost my husband last year. I baby-sat for the boy now and then, and they were wonderful to me. One Sunday they took me along when they had a picnic. I can’t believe what they’re saying on the TV and in the newspapers.”
