said that one of the women re- ]
sembled her “slightly”, but denied
.posing for them.
They were shown to Jelke’s jury ;
of 10 men and two women. Their i
faces were studies in shock, ember- ■
rassment and dismay as the two
large photos were passed from j
hand to hand.
Virginia Dee’s testimony about j
her “cooperation" as a materia)
witness in Jelke’s trial on compul
sory prostitution charges was ;
brought out during her cross-ex
amination.
Recovered -from her crying spell. |
she testified that Roberts told her)
the day she was picked up by two i
men from the DA’s office in April,
1952: "If I didn't cooperate mv
child could be taken away from !
me.”
"You loved your child very
dearly?”
“Yes,” she said in a choked voice..
"You were prepared to do any
thin- to prevent your child being
’..ikon from you?” Herz asked, but
'in objection from Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Anthony J. Liebler
was sustained.
"You were in a panic?” Herz
asked, and Virginia said tearfully,
Os course!”
"Up to that time, had you an
swered the district attorney’s q.Ue-> I
tions?”
“I don't believe so.”
I At that time, said Virginia, her
I baby was 4 months old and was
with her husband, who put up her
i bail money before Jelke’s first trial.
| (Virginia now is divorced: she told
j a reporter between trials that the
Jelke case "ruined" her marriage
to a man she loved very much.)
| She had testified under direct
; examination by Liebler that she
| had been sent on a double date
with Pat Ward to the Warwick
Hotel after a conversation with
Pat, Jelke and Ray Russell Davioni
(a convicted procurer) in Jelke’s
apartment in the fall of 1951.
TELLS OF S2O GIFT
j Herz questioned her about this
: date. She said there were five men
cat the Warwick when she arrived
there with Pat, One was named
Max and he gave her S2O, she said,
although she did not have relations
with anyone “under the circum
stances.”
(Nobody explained that “circum
stances.” Pat testified lest week
that tile men didn’t like Virginia
Dee, but it is understood that an i
argument developed at Hie War-!
wick and Virginia left because she !
j didn't want to take part in what I
: was planned for her there.)
Virginia told Herz that she -est j
Pat at the Warwick. When he ask- !
eo her if she had ever seen Jelke j
after that, she said testify, “No,” I
i and glared at the defendant.
Lived Off Wife’s Earnings
She also told Herz that she mer
I another convicted procurer, Robert j
Merritt, in 1950. Asked what he
did, she said: "He was living off
: Carol Sutton's earnings.” Carol

| Sutton was Merritt’s wife.
“Did you ever work for Bob Mer
! ritt?”
: “Yes."
| “Did you go out on dates with
, men for Bob Merritt?”
j Virginia looked at her attorney,
then said rapidly: “ I invoke my
I Constitutional privilege and refuse
! to .answer on the ground that it
might incriminate me.”
Next Virginia said she didn't
want to talk about a meeting she
had with Barbara Harmon, but
she refused to say whether it might
“degrade or disgrace” her. The
party with Barbara Harmon, she
finally said, took place at the Em
pire Hotel with a group of men
and women.
She turned to Judge Vaiente and
asked, “Do I have to answer?”
when she was pressed for answers
to some of the questions.
“Yes” said Vaiente.

Looks Mai Buick's
B/aaest Year
§>.
It’s been happening week after week.
More people coming in every day to see, sit in,
sample and select the ’55 Buick of their choice.
More people than ever before in our history.
That’s why you see so many new Buicks on the
road today. And that’s why to meet
-precedented popularity Buick production has
been boosted to the highest levels of all time.
Buick Sales Are, Soaring
The simple measure of it all is this: Buick is So
" hot”an automobile that it now outsells all other cars
in the United States except two of the best-known
smaller cars. And for reasons sound, substantial
and thrilling.
Buick styling, you see, was never so crisp, clean,
distinctive. Buick horsepower was never so high
Buick interiors never so rich Buick’s great
ride never so satin-smooth and steady. |
i But there’s something else, too something
vastly different and exciting.
Never before was there any motoring thrill like the
Thrill of the year is Bulclc

■ Don't take chances
—phone 2134 for
fuel oil You'll like
the prompt deliv
ery from a metered
thrill you get from Buick’s spectacular new Variable
Pitch Dynaflow.*
It lets you do what a pilot does—switch the pitch
of your driving propellers—one way for gas sav
ing in cruising—another way for instantaneous
acceleration and getaway.
Your propellers are inside the Dynaflow unit,
spinning in oil. You change their pitch merely by
pressure on the gas pedal. You get action ftiat was
never in any earth-bound vehicle before.
No wonder we’re writing up orders and selling
Buicks at a rate that’s making this the biggest
year in Buick history.
And no wonder—when you see our price tags—
that more and more people cap afford the price
of a new Buick. -
For all the way up the line—from the budget-priced
Special to the custom-built Roadmaster each
Buick is a stand-out buy in its field.
Why not come in for a visit this week and get a
down-to-earth look at the hottest Buick in history?

cost on other Series. •
