IDENTITY OF BODY
Dentist To Help (N.Z. Press Association) AUCKLAND June 10. A dental professor from Dunedin is expected to come to Auckland next week to help with final identification of the human remains found in a disused quarry off Gillies avenue, Epsom, on May 31. Police believe the body is almost certainly that of Miss Lesley Margaret Soutter, aged 19, who disappeared in Auckland on March 29.
Profesor F. R. Shroff, profesor of oral pathology at the Otago Dental School, has been asked by the police to make the journey to Auckland. Earlier plans to send a detective to Dunedin with some specimens were abandoned. Two Auckland pathologists, Dr. F. Cairns and Dr. D. A. Doyle, are continuing their examinations to try to find the cause of death.
