Remains identified; Phoenix man, 20, missing since '83 Skeletal remains found in the desert near Rio Verde on Jan. 2 have been identified as the body of a Phoenix man who disappeared four years ago, relatives and authorities said. James John Lake, who was 20 when he disappeared in January 1983, apparently was shot to death, said his mother, Joan Christensen. His remains were cremated Friday, and a memorial service was held Saturday morning.

Positive identification was made last Tuesday, said his father, John H. Lake. Joe Rossano, a spokesman for the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office, said James Lake likely had been dead for years.

Kids taken from cult threatened Calls made to police, secret foster home United Press International TALLAHASSEE, Fla. Telephone threats against six abused children taken from two members of a religious cult called the Finders prompted police Saturday to move the children to another location and place them under guard.

A half-dozen threats were received Thursday evening at the Police Department and at the foster home where two of the children were being kept, police spokesman Scott Hunt said. The location of that foster home had been secret, and Hunt said he did not know how the caller got the phone number. At the request of the FBI, Hunt refused to elaborate on the calls. But he said the calls dealt with the children's safety. Hunt also refused to discuss the measures taken to protect the children.

He said that tapes of the calls to the police station are being evaluated and that police do not know whether the calls came from a "local crackpot" or were tied to the Finders. "You never underestimate the power of somebody who wants to do damage to young children," Hunt said. "That we have had threats has put us on alert." The six children, ages 2 to 6, are in the custody of state health officials after the arrest of their two adult companions Wednesday. Health officials, police and the FBI are attempting to determine the children's real names and relatives. The two men, who identified themselves as Michael Houlihan and Douglas Ammerman, were arrested after they were seen in a park with the six filthy, poorly dressed children.

Each is being held in lieu of $100,000 bail. Police said one of the children, a 6-year-old girl, had been sexually abused. The two men and the youngsters have been linked to the Finders, a mysterious cult in Washington, D.C. Police suspect the children were turned over to the cult as part of their parents' initiation. Virginia State Police and Madison County, sheriff's officers served five search warrants early Saturday in the area of the Pettie farm, a 90-acre property near the Shenandoah National Park.

Owner Marion Pettie is reported to be the founder of the Finders. Evidence was seized and will be analyzed, but "no obvious new evidence of criminal activity was found," Virginia State Police Lt. J.P. Henries said. The Washington Post reported that a police search of a Washington warehouse linked to the group turned up large numbers of photographs, slides and photographic contact sheets.

Some of the photos, the Post reported, were of children, some of them nude. The Post cited police sources who said some of the pictures were of children engaged in what appeared to be "cult 807-Funeral Directors GREEN ACRES MORTUARIES SCOTTSDALE Morton, Dorothy: Pending Please Call For Addl.
