A tragic figure, dressed in black, Mrs. Frances Mose,
(Elsbeth Burnham) faces a jury today in.the Queens
Court in the preliminary hearing of the trial charging
her with the murder of her husband. Old Man Mose.
Judge Tippie Kennedy will"
preside. Mrs. Mose will be
defended by Rosemary Vin
cent, who once more meets
his rival the District Attor
ney, Gloria Coppola, in court
on opposite sides of a sensa
tional murder trial. Peculi
arities about the case are that
the cause of the death of Old
Man Mose has not yet been
ascertained. Mrs. Mose was
indicted on the strength of
circumstantial evidence,
It is rumored that the Dis
trict Attorney will call Philip
Morris (Betty Ross Dellin
ger), fiance of Margie Mose,
Old Man Mose’s daughter
(Annette Hicks) to testify.
Others expected to testify for
the defense are Pete La Plaza,
notorious gangster (Whaley
Weeks) and Dinah Shore
(Frances Mosely), a colored
servant employed at the Mose
home. The clerk of the court,
Elizabeth Henry, will swear
in the witnesses.
Sheriff Alice Young will
act as officer of the court
as usual and patrolmen Ollie
Meadows and Alene McMul-
lin will be on duty. The Daily
Blah-Blah will print a com
plete record of the trial as
taken by Thelma Martin, the
court stenographer.
The Daily Blah-Blah’s star
sob sister, Nancy Baker, will
report the trial from day to
day as she sees it. Photog
rapher Franz Rummel will
make exclusive pictures. The
District Attorney’s secretary,
Elizabeth Killough will help
with the prosecution.
Among the prominent
people who will probably be
seen in the audience are Mrs.
Kitty Beckett, Patsy Starnes,
Mary Croswell, Sybil Mundy,
and Laura Odom. The fresh
man class jury will render the
verdict.
