Police Question Reagan Critic

LONDON — A British woman, who wrote a letter to President Reagan calling him a “senile old fool” after the U.S. bombing raid on Libya, was questioned by detectives at the request of White House security officials, a police spokesman said today.

But police said they were satisfied that Maureen Eyles, 54, a telephone operator from the village of Pailton, Warwickshire, was not a threat to Reagan’s life. Reaction to her letter surprised Eyles. “I just wrote the letter in anger,” she said.
