Officers then went to a county gravel road two miles south of Dunkerton and searched the snow-covered ground looking for the baby.After several hours of searching, they reportedly found the infant “slightly covered” in the words of one of the officers. It wasn't indicated whether the body was clothed or covered with a blanket or not. but the sheriff said it appeared from initial investigation the body had been there for about a week.The body was 'hen taken to the St. Francis Hospital in Waterloo for the autopsy. Sheriffs spokesmen said the autopsy was to determine if the baby had been stillborn or if it had died after being bom alive.Officials hadn’t released the names of any of the people involved as of Thursday morning, and apparently hadn’t taken any action regarding charges. No reason was given as to why the baby, if stillborn, had been left in the ditch. Nor were any extenuating circumstances indicated as to why such action was taken by the mother involvedIt was also not known if the mother involved was from Dunkerton or from somewhere else.Authorities said simply the investigation was continuing.The ment w Depart: p.m. Fc High F; Facult Coachir Coachir busines Bill 1 the Ocl ment, j (Thursc sale of dee’s : donatei project.Meml will ho arterno« cafetori p.m.Memt school • and coa donatedHigh Oelweir day) v» donatio Anyor donatioi banks lt;The U Waucon bank ar« the Hciciftist majority on a parliamentary the Lockheed payoff scandal has Premier Mariano Rumor with corise ministers and a former air force irged.
