Photograph article dated January 2, 1948 reads, "A very distraught young man was Charles Harader, 26, of 2208 Cahuenga Boulevard, who rode Griffith Park buses six consecutive days, 10 hours a day, in search of a sweetheart he named as Susan Simpson, 22. He showed picture of her to newsmen. They discovered the picture was that of Radio Actress Lynn Allen, who "never saw him before." Tearful "Chuck" suspended his search."
