Mrs. Ford Appealed

IN FINANCIAL STRAITS
Daughter Had Movie Ambitions,
She Says; Was Unable
to See Jafsie'.
HOPEWELL, N.J., May 19.-(/P)-
A possible link between a Brooklyn
school teacher and "Jafsie" bobbed
in and out of the Lindbergh murder
hunt today, as police exhibited an
eagerness to learn more about the
activities of Dean H. Dobson-Pea-
cock, associate of John Hughes
Curtis, hoax -negotiator.
Behind wi ed doors of the Brook-
lyn district attorney's office,, the
officials questioned Mrs. Mary G.
Ford for several hours about a re-
port that she had communicated
several weeks ago with Dr. John F.
Condon, who handled the $50,000
ransom paym/ent for Col. Charles
A. Lindbergh.
Other officers interrogated the
teacher's daughter, Miss Barbara
Ford, whom they located in a Riv-
erside Drive apartment.
Girl and Mother Freed.
Both told substantially the same
story of their contact with the aged
"Jafsie," and later were released.
District Attorney W. F. X. Geo-
ghan said he neither believed nor
disbelieved their explanation, but
would continue the investigation.
Mrs. Ford told her questioners a
story of being in financial straits,
thinking "Jafsie" might be able to
aid her, and appealing to him in
vain for $2,500.
Information supplied by school'
officials started detectives off on
this new clue. They had heard Mrs.
Ford talk to Dr. Condgn by 'tele-"
phone, they said, and knew she was
absent from her duties between
Feb. 25 through March 1, the day
of the kidnapping. I
Denies Talking to "Jafsie."
When they asked her about her
conversation with "Jafsie," they told
officials, she denied it was Dr. Con-
don she had spoken to and said it'
was her daughter's physician..
'Under questioning, Mrs. Ford said
she first thought of Dr. Condon
when a private detective called on
her about another matter and
started discussing the Lindbergh
case.
Her story of what followed was
this:
She wrote to Dr. Condon, asking
an appointment about a personal
matter, and adding she would like
to be of service in the Lindbergh
case. He replied by letter asking
for her telephone number. She sent
himthe school number.
Dr. Condon called her and she
asked him for $2,500-$1,700 to set-
tle an account and $800 for her
daughter, who had motion picture
ambitions.

'OVER-EMPHASIS CRY' IS ATTACKED
BY JIMMY CROWLEY IN TALK HERE
Jim (Sleepy) Crowley, head foot-
ball coach at Michigan State Col-
lege and member of the great Four
Horsemen backfield combination of
Notre Dame, took the opportunity
to deliver an ,attack against those
who cry out about over-emphasis
of football during a talk at the an-
nual athletic banquet of St. Thom-
as High school, last night:
"Up to 1905," Crowley pointed out,
"football was a brutal game. There
were no end runs or trick plays. A
team on offensive was only requir-
man and loved the game. So he
called the leader of the Big Three,
Harvard, Yal and Princeton into
conference. As a result, the re-
quirenlents for continued possession
of the ball were changed to ten
yards in four downs. With that
change brains entered the game of
football.
"This change," Crowley conclud-
ed, "forced the use of the forward
pass and the end run. Football be-
came a mighty spectacle. It began
to draw crowds. And now they are{
