DAPHNE said as best she can remember a "woman-drove
pel old COR
OSWALD-up to the Ryder Coffee House. She said the woman was an
elderly woman with sort of gray hair in her 40's. DAPHNE said
she aid not know the type OF car the woman was driving, but it
appeared Lo be some sort of red sports car. She said that she
has already talked to DAVE SNYDER of the New Orleans States-Item
She believes he was sent to her by BILL SULZER (SULZER is
related to NEENA SULZER who works in Louis Heyd's office. Possibly
her father) I _asked her why SULZER sent SNYDER to her, and she
said that she did not know except that SULZER was one of the
people who had contact with LEE HARVEY OSWALD. She said that
not after the for Florida DAPHNE and told said her
assassination SULZER left
to talk to anyone about LEE HARVEY OSWALD. to
her knowledge she did not know whether or not LEE HARVEY OSWALD
stayed in any of the apartments by the Ryder Coffee House for
any length of time. She said that OSWALD also asked her if she
knew "RED"
She said that her husband's nickname is "RED", but
she doesn't believe that OSWALD was referring to him.
DAPHNE said that sone of the people who may be able
ve us some information about OSWALD at the Ryder Coffee
- are PATTY GLEASON, MATTHEW LOUVIERE, ARNOLD ECKLAND
LOUIS-GOURGES, BRECK HENRY and LOUIS JACKSON. She said all of
these people were around the Ryder Coffee House or lived there.
DAPHNE STAPELTON seemed to be very anti-Communist
and said that we should talk to HOWARD COWAN who was the head
of a Marxist group around the coffee house. She said this group
would get together and read Marxist poetry from time to time,
and she indicated very strongly that COWAN would have a lot of
information about LEE HARVEY OSWALD
I asked DAPHNE what information she gave to DAVE
SNYDER of the States-Item and she said "Not much.' She said
SNYDER told her that he wanted to talk to her because the States-
Item was going to prove that Garrison did not have a case, and
that all he was interested in was a "witch hunt".
DAPHNE STAPELTON, as I mentioned earlier, was
physically ill and got out of the bed to talk to me. Because
of her illness and her mother literally screaming and crying
during our interview, the interview was rather difficult. I
told her that I would be back to talk to her when she is feeling
better and perhaps when she would be alone. She said she would
be glad to talk to me because she has nothing to hide.
It is interesting to recall TOMMY BAUMLER' remark
to BARBARA REID that if District Attorney's office wants to
find out about LEE HARVEY OSWALD they should look into his
activities around the Ryder Coffee House,
all fuck Frasien statements that
KT went to discussions at
Ryder weekly- Note HT states
he Newer saw LHD his NO.
