L 14 Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon, Monday, Oct. 14, 1946 Woman's Head Found in River Portland, Ore., Oct. 14 Wi A woman's head found in the Willamette river by Oak Grove residents yesterday was being studied today in the hope ot identifying the "torso mystery" victim. Stale police said the head belonged to the woman's torso recovered from the river last April, and said the right side of the skull had been fractured by a blow. Dr. Howard L. Richardson, director of the stale police cri minology laboratory, said the head was that of a woman "more than 50" with greying brown hair. The upper teeth were false and dental technicians will examine the fillings of the lower jaw teeth in an effort to trace identity. The torso was located April 12 at Milwaukic and a thigh and other limb portions discov ered in the Clackamas river July 27. The head was found by Mr. and Mrs. Roy Clutter, Oak Grove, while they strolled along the river bank. It was wrapped in rags and weighted down. The Lolo tribesmen of south west China are a primitive peo ple living under a strictly feu dal system.
