Humbird (Two Missing Girls - 14 May 1970)

Information concerning two Humbird girls, who have been missing from their homes since 6:30 p.m. May 3, is being sought by Clark County Sheriff’s officers.

“We have reason to believe they have been in the Chicago area, and are alive,” said an officer. “We have been unable to track them there, or to learn of their whereabouts since that time.”

The missing girls are Lee Ann Van Kirk, 15, and Alice Scheneker, 16. They dropped out of sight after being let out in Humbird to attend a meeting of their church young folks group.

Authorities are requesting that anyone who might have seen them after that time get in touch with the sheriff’s office.

Miss Van Kirk is described as being five feet, four inches tall; 125 pounds; with a dark medium long wig worn over short brown hair; brown eyes; and wearing a navy blue jacket and navy blue bell-bottom pants. Miss Scheneker is described as five feet, eight inches tall; 130 pounds; long, blonde hair; slender build; blue eyes; and wearing striped white and wine colored slacks and a blue shirt.
