FOUR GIRLS DISAPPEAR IN FALLS CITIES IN WEEK

Lillian SHOWALTERS, 14 years old, disappeared from her home in Shepherdsville Friday, and 
the local police have been asked to look for her.  She is said to have come to Louisville.  
An aunt, Mrs. William ROSS, who lives on Portland Avenue, says she has not seen the girl. 
This is the fourth girl under 16 years of age to disappear in the Falls Cities within a 
week.

Note:  Does anybody know anything about this?  I can't find a follow-up story in the papers 
I have (thru Oct. 31).
