Mr. Griffin.

This consists of two pages of an interview report which is marked Commission's Document 86, Page 132, and 86, Page 133.
It is a copy of a report made by Special Agent David Barry of the FBI, with you, Mrs. Cheek, on December 9, 1963.
I want you to read that over and I will ask you the same questions with respect to that as I asked with the previous report. That is, would you make any additions or corrections on that?
If you felt that that is an accurate report of the interview you had with Agent Barry?

Mrs. Cheek.

I had bought and sold in the nightclubs, no. I didn't say that. I didn't mean to give them the impression, if they got that impression, that I had bought and sold nightclubs. No. I told them about Maple Avenue, you know.

Mr. Griffin.

Let me see what portion of the report you are referring to.

Mrs. Cheek.

I don't remember buying and selling nightclubs, but I would, if I could, make any money.

Mr. Griffin.

This report says on Page 132; "Mrs. Cheek stated that she has been in the real estate business in Dallas, Texas, for a number of years."

Mrs. Cheek.

That's right.

Mr. Griffin.

"That she frequently has bought and sold interests in night-clubs; that during the past several months she has been attempting to locate a good nightclub investment; and that in this connection she had visited practically every nightclub in Dallas which she considered might be purchased outright or in which an interest might be obtained."

Mrs. Cheek.

I was interested in buying one, but I hadn't bought and sold them.

Mr. Griffin.

So the only change you would make in the paragraph was to strike out that clause which reads, "that she frequently has bought and sold interests in nightclubs"?

Mrs. Cheek.

Yes.

Mr. Griffin.

Would you want to take this pen and put a line through that and initial it?

Mrs. Cheek.

[Complies.]

Mr. Griffin.

Why don't you go ahead and continue to read it and tell us if there are any other changes that you would make?

Mrs. Cheek.

[Reading report.] Mr. Martin knows Jack Ruby. That name right there, that man might have told Jack Ruby that I was interested in a club. He knows him real well and says Mrs. Grant is his friend, and Jack Ruby, that is the time that I made the appointment to see him about the club. Well, he said that he had had dinner with Jack Ruby. We were talking about the club over on Oak Lawn.

Mr. Griffin.

The Vegas Club?

Mrs. Cheek.

Yes. And he said Jack Ruby was a good friend of his. And he told me about Jack Ruby. That is where I got my information, I remember now.

Mr. Griffin.

You talked with him about Ruby. When was your conversation with Martin about Ruby?

Mrs. Cheek.

He was just telling me about a good operator.

Mr. Griffin.

When was that?

Mrs. Cheek.

And how he made money.

Mr. Griffin.

How long before you saw Ruby in November?

Mrs. Cheek.

Just before I went down to the club, you know, and met him.

Mr. Griffin.

He said something to you also about Mrs. Grant, Eva Grant?

Mrs. Cheek.

Mr. Martin. He said both were good friends of him, and said Mrs. Grant operated the club on Oak Lawn for Mr. Ruby.

Mr. Griffin.

Do you remember anything else he told you?

Mrs. Cheek.

I don't remember all the conversation

Mr. Griffin.

Did you call this Mr. Matin that said he had dinner with Jack Ruby?

Mrs. Cheek.

Yes; he was a real good friend of his and a real nice fellow, and Mr. Martin said he was in the oil business and he was just kind of playing
