Thursday. February 19, 1959 5 MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORE. Rackets Probers Turn To Chicago Music Business Washington (CP& The ' Sen ate Rackets Committee dug into the roots of the Chicago underworld today to take a look at juke box racketeer ing in the city where it may have been conceived. Some classic examples of gangsterism were expected to come to light in this phase of which will last about four days. 20 Relate Threats Chief Counsel Robert F. Kennedy said the inquiry would center on some of the top figures in the storied Chi cago underworld. He said these would include Sam (Mooney) Giancanna, reputed to be the latest successor to the gangdom throne of Al Capone. Kennedy said witnesses would relate threats by mob sters to outfit juke box op erators with "cement boots" and drop them in the river. He said the testimony also would touch on often-heard rumors that underworld fig ures have helped the careers of their favorite singers with enforced sales of their rec ords. More Violence Involved Kennedy said the Chicago style of juke box rackeeter- ing involved even more vio lence than that exposed dur ing the New York hearings, which closed Wednesday. He said it also included the now-familiar triangle or ' collusion among mobsters, un ion officials and leaders of juke box trade associations. The lead-off witnesses will be a group of operators, in cluding Don Maloney, Max Brier, Robert E. Lindeloff, Nicholas Galetano and Ber nard Poss. Kennedy said they would tell about efforts of Chicago gangsters to take over the juke box operations in out lying areas. Doctors Keep Eye On Condition of General Marshall Ft Bragg, N.C.-DPD-Army doctors held hopes today that the condition of General of the Army George C. Mar shall was "stabilizing." The 78-year-old retired sol dier - statesman, hospitalized here since Jan. 15, suffered a second stroke earlier this week and was reported in serious condition. A medical bulletin late Wednesday said Marshall's condition "seems to be sta bilizing" but Col. George Powell said his prognosis was "guarded." t Powell, chief of medicine at the Army's new Womack General Hospital here, told newsmen, "I hope the gener al's condition reverses itself instead of getting worse. If it stabilizes, chances of re covery are fairly good." Chance of Another Stroke He noted, however, that the fact that Marshall already has suffered two strokes makes the chances of another one greater. Powell also reported that a "very mild pneumonia" had developed, practically concurrently with the .second stroke which came sometime between late Monday and early Wednesday. He stress ed, however, that "right now the pneumonia is not" com plicating the general's illness. The Wednesday bulletins said that, as was the .case with the first stroke last month, there was no paralysis but that Marshall was experi encing some difficulty in swallowing and in seeing in certain directions. i 1 Boy, Hurt in Fall, Amazes Physicians , New York-OJPD-Jimniy Bell, the 11-year-old boy who plunged 17 stori.es and lived, amazed his physicians today by showing some improve ment, although he is still in critical condition. Physicians at Beekman Downtown hospital now are giving Jimmy a fighting chance to recover. He jumped Tuesday from a bedroom window of his family apart ment to a soft plot of earth 200 feet below to escape pa rental punishment for stealing a quarter. The boy received broken wrists and elbows, lacerations of the liver and small intes tines, contusions of the eye and other injuries. Miami Beach, Fla. - (UPD -Isidor.
