Gene Starks is being accused of such things, but really, what she thought was a rock turned out to be a rabbit and scared her so badly when it jumped that she ran off the road. Damaged the car quite badly and shook Gene up, in more ways than one! And that is a beautiful new car she is driving! An Idea? 0 0 0 VIRGINIA TURNER reviewed the book, "Final Verdict" by Adela Rogers St. John, at the Book worms meeting. It is a true and colorful story of the author's father who was an eminent criminal lawyer in Los Angeles. Madge .
