Mrs. Frances Korbelik, shown above with her 15-year-old daughter Dorothy, was questioned by police in connection with the death of her labor-leader husband, 42-year-old William Korbelik. Mrs. Korbelik and Dorothy found the nude body of Korbelik, under a pile of lumber in the storeroom of their home, almost four months after he disappeared. He had been shot through the head. Korbelik was former head of the local CIO United Steelworkers union.
