Authorities will try again Friday to pull a station wagon from the Columbia River that's believed to have belonged to an Oregon family of five who disappeared nearly 70 years ago while they were out searching for Christmas greenery.

The case of the Martin family’s disappearance has bewildered local residents and investigators for more than six decades — until Friday.

A year later, two of the girls were found in the Columbia River, dead from drowning, near Bonneville Dam. The rest of the family — and the car — remained missing. Until, perhaps, now.
