Mrs. Rich.

Well, she managed Jack's other club; his sister managed the Vegas Club.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you ever meet her?

Mrs. Rich.

One time.

Mr. Hubert.

Where?

Mrs. Rich.

She came in at the club there one time, was introduced as his sister, and that she managed the Vegas Club, which I had never been out to.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you have any difficulty with Ruby?

Mrs. Rich.

Except the fact I was about ready to throw a cash register on his head, no.

Mr. Hubert.

What was that?

Mrs. Rich.

I shouldn't have said that. I said except for the fact that I was ready one night to throw a cash register on his head, no. I don't like to be pushed around.

Mr. Hubert.

Are you suggesting that he did push you around?

Mrs. Rich.

I am suggesting he threw me up against the bar and put a bruise on my arm, and only because Bud King and one of the dancers there pulled me off, I was going to kill him.

Mr. Hubert.

What was the argument about?

Mrs. Rich.

The bar glasses were not clean enough to suit him. And I wasn't pushing drinks to the customers fast enough.

Mr. Hubert.

And so he remonstrated with you?

Mrs. Rich.

He did.

Mr. Hubert.

And that included pushing you around?

Mrs. Rich.

That is correct. And I was refused the privilege of bringing an assault and battery suit against him.

Mr. Hubert.

Who refused you that?

Mrs. Rich.

The police department. I went down for information and was going to Mr. Douglas--I believe he was--he is some attorney--I think he was--he is with the DA's office. I don't remember his position. I can't remember his last name. I wanted to file suit against Ruby. And I was refused. I was told if I did that I would never win it, and get myself in more trouble than I bargained for.

Mr. Hubert.

That was told to you by whom?

Mrs. Rich.

By the Dallas Police Department.

Mr. Hubert.

But what individual of the Dallas Police Department?

Mrs. Rich.

Again--and I wish to God I could--I can't remember his name. There was a detective, plainclothesman.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you say that you had spoken to someone in the district attorney's office?

Mrs. Rich.

No; I said that is who I was going to go to. I wasn't advised. I was flatly told not to.

Mr. Hubert.

And you did not go to anyone in the district attorney's office?

Mrs. Rich.

No; I did not.

Mr. Hubert.

Did that put an end to your employment with Ruby?

Mrs. Rich.

No; I had already ceased with Ruby the night that that happened. I walked out, and left him cold.

Mr. Hubert.

That is what I mean.

Mrs. Rich.

That is correct.

Mr. Hubert.

After this altercation, you no longer worked for him?

Mrs. Rich.

I did not. I was just biding my time until I found another job, which I did find. This was on a Wednesday. I was going to give him notice and leave him--I wasn't going to leave him over the weekend, but I was going to start the other place the following Monday anyway. And this just hastened it.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you report that to your husband?

Mrs. Rich.

I did.

Mr. Hubert.

He was employed in Dallas at that time, I think you said.

Mrs. Rich.

Yes; he was.

Mr. Hubert.

Where?

Mrs. Rich.

At this time, I don't recall whether he was working for Paul
