Show ONCC OVER 1 Crime Via Radio Very Vexing By H. I. Phillips 1 TNlD you ever see so much U scandal?" "It's positively grim. Who would ever think an admiral would be mentioned in connection with the mink coat Joe Erickson gave Virginia Vir-ginia Lustrom!" "Washington never should of sold the fur coats as surplus in the first place, as Kefauver brought out when he cross-examined Inspector Goldman in the Adonis Maritime matter." "That's the case where the Casey brothers jumped ship in the point-spread point-spread system, ain't it?" "No, you're thinking of the O'Cranes who they say gave a million mil-lion to the Ohio housing corporation with only the Murder Incorporated Club as security." "Anyhow, I'm glad Tom Dewey gave the Kefauver Committee another an-other thirty days. I wonder what they will do about Tobey." "What about him?" "He refuses to talk!" "Weren't you amazed by the way gangsters have gotten into so many legitimate businesses disguised as basketball players?" "Not much. I know Costello, Sobol and Anastasia were missing a lot of baskets all last season, even before Senator Halley went into those Florida hotel loans." "Fulbright will clear up that whole Saratoga mess, I guejs. He's got a good committee . . . DiSalle, Tom Murphy, General Lucius Clay, John Harlan and Leo Durocher." "What's the charge against Saratoga?" Sara-toga?" "They say it got $5,000,000 from the RFC without putting up anything any-thing except some jukeboxes and an organization to educate the Chinese. I hear it is now out on probation." "Well, it seems to me those six policemen and the revenue agents could have watched it more carefully. care-fully. What about that police inspector inspec-tor who met General Sherman at the airport with a police car? Do you think he jumped out of that hotel window?" "No, I think he was thrown out by those six lawyers because he was willing to tell the truth and testify before television." "I hope the Kefauver Grand Jury continues its work by video. The television programs are awful dull now. I thought Greasy Thumb Mc-Guire Mc-Guire was funny on the screen when he was being questioned by Virginia Vir-ginia O'Connor on the way he bought those surplus trucks in Germany Ger-many and resold them to the U.S. Army in this country without even showing his naturalization papers at City Hall." "What do you think of the U.N. proposal that the whole crime situation situa-tion be looked into by a big committee com-mittee on ethics to be made up of two college presidents, Judy Hol-liday, Hol-liday, Big Jim Farley, Jose Ferrer, Fer-rer, Dizzy Dean and P-of Einstein?" "I'm for it. We've got to get to the bottom of things no matter whether the game is given back to the colleges or played in Madison Square Garden." |
