Police Locate Missing Cirl

OTTAWA, Oct. 5 -(CP) —- A flYB-dfly scazch for June Bskcr. pretty Toronto co-ed. ended today 1n a restaurant where an off-duty policeman spotted her working as a waitress.

The 21-year-old medical student is “safe and unharmed," pollcesaid. Sire vivas taken to the suburban Rockcllffe home of Mr. Justice R. L. Kellog of the Supreme Court of Canada, believed a. distant relative. Reporters were not permitted to interview her.

The girl's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Baker, flew to Ottawa as soon as they learned she was found. It was not immediately known when they would return to Toronto.

Miss Baker, a second-year stu- dent at, the University of ‘Iuronto. disappeaied last Thursday after limcliing with an unidentified woman in a Toronto restaurant not far from the university eam-

pus.

Her father offered a $1.000 re- ward and. as police pressed a hunt which spread across Canada into the United States. fear was ex- pressed that she had been the vic- tim of foul play.

It was Provincial Constable George Clark of the Rockcllffe de- tachment wiho found her. Acting on information that she was in Ot- lawn-and a hunch that she had taken work as a waitress-he checked a number of restaurants and located her about 10:30 n.m. today in the Subway Grill.

At first, she denied she was June Baker, then admitted her identity to Constable Clark.

Police said Miss Baker offered no explanation of her disappear- ance and that none was asked.

Mr. Snszellc said there is con- siderable work to be dime boil’!!! he will feel that condtilons have been made as satisfactory as pos- slltlc for the carryin! on of the work.

when the seedlings have reach- ed the proper size for transplant- ing in the open, they will be made available I0 the public It a m- sonable price. Mr. Snaaelis said he hoped that, when the time came. farmers whose hilly IBM had suffered from erosion would avail themselves of thQ OPPOTI-"fl" lty to secure thousands of the seedlings. Such work.
