Sheriff's police said a lie de
tector test given Edward Lee
Benny The Dishwasher Bedwell,
21, proved "inconclusive." He
was held for further question
ing and investigation.
The nude and crumpled bodies
of Barbara Grimes, 15, and her
sister, Patricia, 13, were found
Tuesday in a ditch on the city's
southwest suburbs.
Benny, who sports a duck-tail
haircut and Elvis Presly side
burns, has denied any connec
tion with the slaying.
At least three persons reported
seeing the girls with Benny two
days after they disappeared Dec.
28 after attending a Presley
movie. The part-time dishwasher
admitted taking two teen-aged
girls on a tour of Skid Row bars
then, but said he was certain
they were not the Grimes sisters.
Police checked out a report
that the girls may have been
alive as late as Jan. 14. eight
days before their murder was
discovered.
Mrs. Wallace Tollstam said
"frightened and depressed" Pa
tricia telephoned her daughter
early that morning. She said the
caller, whose voice she recog
nized as that of Patricia, asked:
'"Is that you Sandra? Is Sandra
there?"
Mrs. Tollstam said her daugh
ter Sandra, 13, and Patricia were
close friends. She said she
awakened her daughter because
the voice sounded so frightened
and depressed, but the caller
hung up before Sandra reached
the phone.
Willamette Approves
Reserve Training
Portland (U.R) The board
of trustees of Willamette Uni
versity voiced approval yester
day of the Air Reserve Officer
Training Corps program on the
campus despite attacks made
against it earlier.
A special committee report
was approved by a decisive vote
at a meeting of the board here.
The committee was appointed
to study the situation after the
Oregon Methodist conferencee
last summer asked disestablish
ment of the unit.
A survey of Willamette Uni
versity made a year ago by the
general board of education of
the Methodist church had said:
"A military training program
should be regarded as a tem
porary adjustment to unpleasant
realities."
