GEORGE HIGGENBOTHAM
2
LOREN BUTLER
Suggested looking for this man, who was a friend
of Frier's, and was a high official in Nazi Party.
RAY LEEHEART (Or Earhart)
A bus driver out of the Magazine St.
depot very active in the Nazi party. Used to place Party slogan
and posters on the walls of the depot.
Higgenbotham knows Joe Newbrough of course, but insists he did not
know Bill Dalzell. When he brought the Lauchli material, etc., he
did not go into too much detail, probably assuming (correctly) that
I wouldn't understand too much, although he trusts me as much as he
does any woman. Whether much of this is significant or not, I
can't say. But Higgenbotham is NOT playing games; he is in too much
of a bind and he is willing to cooperate in any way. This is one
person TOMMY BAUMLER will go to any lengths for, (regardless of the
consequences) and the first person Tommy has begged me to help in
any way you can". Higgenbotham was a pallbearer at Tommy's Daddy's
funeral and Tommy says "When I was a crippled kid without a friend
in the world, George came and played Chess with me and was my only
friend.'
Higgenbotham has lived at the same Lowerline Street address for about
fifteen years. Is a gun collector, has survived many political
changes, and apparently his sexual proclivities tend to young males.
He believes the Pot found belonged to a young man with whom he is
no longer friendly. His attorney is Gill, Jr. (mentioned previously).
He felt that much of his information would not be considered, be-
cause in his opinion Lou Davis was and is a key factor in the sub-
merged activities in this area, and because of
would not follow them to a conclusion. He
feels there was more organization locally in respect to a conspiracy
than appears so far on the surface. Particularly in respect to the
acquisition of supplies, training organization and leadership. He
says it's logical because these things were available. It certainly
wouldn't hurt to talk with him.
