Four Dead In Northern Ontario Accident

Police divers in northern Ontario have found the bodies of three Americans and a Canadian who died when their de Havilland DHC-2 float plane (file photo of type, right) went down in a lake near Kenora. By Thursday, they were figuring a plan of attack to recover the bodies from the lake bed.
