SECRETARY
FOOLSU. s. AGENTS
Resemblance to Robinson
Attracts Their Notice
at Ball Game.

Edwin Doves general resemblance
to Thomas H. Robinson, jr.. fugitive
Stoll kidnaper, spoiled the Washing
ton-Detroit ball game yesterday for
two visiting Department Of Justice
agents, who learned by questioning
him after the game that he was not
a kidnaper. but secretary to Police
Inspector Frank S. w. Burke.
The agents, here for retraining
course at the Federal Bureau of In
vestigation, were watching the game
in the second inning when one of
them was attracted to a man nearby
in a brown -uit and wearing dark sun
glasses. All of the agents have a
memory picture Of Robinson. for
whom the department has been con-
Quoting a wide search since the ab-
duction at Louisville, KY, OF Mrs.
Berry Stoll.
Chances Seem Suspicious.
One agent called to the attention
of the other the appearance Of Dove.
Robinson, j. Edgar Hoover, tnvestiga-
ton director said today, is known to
favor brown, to be a neat dresser and
to use sun glasses for disguise. From
the second inning until the end Of
the game the agents kept watching
Dove instead of the game. Once or
twice, according to their report to
Hoover, Dove glanced around in
manner that seemed suspicious.
When tn. game was over the agents
followed Dove to Seventh street and
saw him looking up and down the
street. Later it developed he was try
ing to find taxicab. As Dove started
to walk rapidly toward the corner,
the agents walked up to him and,
Hoover declared, in quiet manner so
as not to attract attention OF pass
ersby, identified themselves as special
agents and asked Dove to step to q
recess in a building where they could
question him unobtrusively.
Suspects Joke"
Dove complied, asking If "this Is a
joke" inspired by some Of his jesting
friends. The agents explained they
were serious and that Dove resembled
a hdnaper wanted by the Federal
authorities. They asked Dove II he
could identify himself. Dove showed
the officers typewriter card with
his name on it and his drivers permit
and said he was secretary to Inspector
Burke, chief Of detectives.
According to the report Of the in
cident given Hoover by the agents,
Dove then suggested they walk to the
corner where there was a policeman
who knew him. The agents agreed, but
on arrival at the corner the police
man was away from his post. Dove

desk officer telephoned Burke's Office,
