    The mystery about British Atom Scientist Bruno Pontecorvo, isn't solved yet. The atom scientist with his wife and children is said to have disappeared after having been in Stockholm, at the night between the 1st and 2nd of September, where-fore he left for Helsinki. A rumour says that the Pontecorvo family left Helsinki on the 2nd September by the Soviet steamer Beloostrov, arriving at Leningrad on the 5th September 1950. They are said to have left Helsinki without being registered by the Finnish custom authorities. Mr Pontecorvo is married to the Swedish born Helen Marianne Nordblom, shown in our picture.
