18 June Call

23 June P.W.P. moderator's workshop. Reservations

G. W. Motor Lodge

One of the most puzzling notations was the "ring to courier." After the telephone records of everyone connected with the Reinert case were subpoenaed, it was discovered that on February 22nd a telephone call had been made to St. John's College in Santa Fe from Susan Reinerts phone. They learned it had been made in the morning, when Susan Reinert was at her doctor's office for a breast examination.

She didn't make the call, so whoever did might have had something to do with the $3,500 and a "ring to courier."

The cops found a teaching application addressed to the

Department of Health, Education and Welfare, Washington, DC.

In the "personality" box was the following:

Mrs. Reinert is a strong minded individual who maintains a becoming professional posture even in the most trying circumstances (confrontations, discipline, etc.).

I lived abroad myself as a civilian and as an Army colonel. I have known Mrs. Reinert for eight years. I have no reservations in recommending her to you. I can state securely that she will be a plus factor to your program. She is a person you can depend on to fulfill her commitments and who will be a teacher that exemplifies the best aspects of American Education.

Jay C. Smith

(Principal of Upper Merion Senior High School 1966 to 1978. Promoted to district director, special services.)

There was another reference to HEW along with Jay

Smiths:

Mrs. Reinert is an extremely able and sensitive person who holds very high standards of integrity for herself. She would, it seems to me, be an ideal representative of this country. I recommend her to you without reservation.

William S. Bradfield, Jr. (Teacher of advanced placement English, Latin and Creek.)

There was a sad letter written by Susan Reinert to Bertha Perez of the USAA insurance company:

For clarification, please tell me what is covered under accidental death. For example, if I fall off the back of a sailboat, or if I am shot, are those considered accidents? (Not that I'm planning on either of those situations!!)

Two months later, an insurance agent wrote:

The applicant wanted it known that the reason she applied for insurance was to protect her children. She is going to England, taking her two children with her on a teacher exchange program. She will spend one year in England starting in July or August. Eventually, Mr. B. will visit her and they will be married in England.

Susan Reinert was not granted the fellowship for which she was recommended by Jay Smith and William Bradfield. A brief letter arrived in April saying that the number of qualified candidates greatly exceeded the number of positions available. She didn't have even that little triumph.

Some of the FBI agents who waded through every scrap of paper in the Reinert house reported being charmed by the photos of the children, especially Karen's.

"That kid was a photographer's dream," one special agent said. "She was meant to be a great-looking woman."

And they noticed that they'd all begun talking about the children in the past tense.
