(Testimony of Marjorie R. Richey)

Mrs. Richey.
and it kind of goes, you know, all together. To me he has an accent. To somebody else he might not.
Mr. Griffin.
When did this occur?
Mrs. Richey.
You ask dates and I can't tell you dates.
Mr. Griffin.
About how long before the President was shot?
Mrs. Richey.
I don't know. I don't have any idea.
Mr. Griffin.
Was it as much as 3 months?
Mrs. Richey.
I can tell you the the MC's we had after him.
Mr. Griffin.
All right, who were the MC's?
Mrs. Richey.
Sal Vincent. Remember the guy that sang--
Mr. Griffin.
Was that Johnny Turner?
Mrs. Richey.
I believe it was. Yes; he is the one that had it, what do you call it, dummies, ventriloquist. There was one that was there now, that was after.
Mr. Griffin.
Did Bill DeMur come in? Do you remember Bill DeMur?
Mrs. Richey.
Yes; he was there before. Yes; Bill DeMur, but he was there before and after. I mean he was there when this happened. Was Sal there before? Come to think of it--
Mr. Griffin.
The short fat man you are talking about?
Mrs. Richey.
The one with the toupee, the stupid man. He wasn't there before? Oh, I thought he was. He knows about as much as I do.
Mr. Griffin.
Anyhow--
Mrs. Richey.
I don't remember the date though.
Mr. Griffin.
Did Wally Weston leave as a result of this argument?
Mrs. Richey.
I don't know if it was this argument. Maybe it was because he wouldn't let Shafi, his wife, come back. She was a dancer there. Shari Angel. I don't know, it seems like that was why they were arguing, because he wouldn't let Shaft come back, but I am not even real sure about that, but I remember that was an argument between them.
Mr. Griffin.
Did Jack ever express in your presence any opinions about Earl Norman?
Mrs. Richey.
No. Earl worked there one week, but he never said anything to me about Earl.
Mr. Griffin.
Did you ever see anybody at the Carousel Club who in any way resembled Lee Oswald?
Mrs. Richey.
No.
Mr. Griffin.
I haven't got any further questions at this point, so if there is anything that you would like to tell us, is there anything that I haven't covered that you think we should know about?
Mrs. Richey.
No, you have covered about all of it. I am afraid I haven't been much help because I have tried to put this out of my mind. I want to try to forget it.
Mr. Griffin.
I think you have been very helpful to us and I want to thank you for coming all this distance for a short period of time like this. I hope you enjoy your stay in Washington.
Mrs. Richey.
We are leaving right away. Gould you tell me if I will be called again?
Mr. Griffin.
No. Yes; I can tell you the answer is that you won't be called. I don't expect that there will be any reason to call you. Excuse me; there is one thing I want to do before we finish here. I have marked Exhibit 1 for identification as previously indicated in the record, and I want to ask you if you have read it over and if you have any other changes to make other than the ones that you mentioned as you read it.
Mrs. Richey.
Let me read it again. This says here that Janice was just a cocktail waitress, and she was just a waitress. "Several years," I can't remember, I haven't known him that long.
I didn't know him that long at that time. I may have said that then. I won't say that I didn't. And the noon; to me it seems like that it was later and it may have been or it may not have been. I am not really sure about that either. And that is about it.
Mr. Griffin.
All right, if that is satisfactory then I would like you to to take this pencil and sign it down there by my name.
