Second ‘Lindy Baby’ Reported to City Police
-fjr -''
Jackie Clark ANOTHER “Lindbergh baby” been found in Indianapolis! He’s a blue-eyed, curly-haired boy who will celebrate his second birthday next month. He’s afraid of strangers, and finds it difficult to “make up” with two of the city’s friendliest police officers. Acting on an anonymous letter which said a baby resembling the kidnaped Lindbergh child was in a house at 814 North Gladstone avenue, Lieutenant Walter Claffey and Sergeant Harold Morton today rapped on the front door. M M M ‘ "TVO you have a baby here?" Claffey asked the woman who answered. “You bet we have, officer. Come right in,’’ she said. She was Mrs. Justine Clark, mother of John Francis (Jackie) Clark, who will be 2, April 24. “I’ll bet I know why you are here,” she told Claffey. “You think our baby is the Lindbergh baby.” “You’re right, “Claffey answered. “We had such a report.” “Well, we just wondered how long It ■would be until someone mistook him for the kidnaped child,” she said. M M M TACKIE toddled from another ** room with his father, Harvey Clark, railroad trainman. Clark admitted his son resembled the Lindy baby, but produced records to support his assertion that the boy is Jackie Clark and not Charles Augustus Lindbergh Jr The records included a birth' certificate, the baby’s finger and foot prints and its check number, listed at the Methodist hospital. Jackie was in awe of the officers. Finally, he went to Claffey, but Morton failed in his attempts to talk the situation over with Jackie. The only break Morton got was when Jackie waved good-by.

Then we were placed in an automobile and driven two miles out of the city. There was an escort of about thirty cars and seventy-five to 100 men. I was not beaten, but several men beat Goldman.
