Deputy District Attorney
Fred N. Whichello made the
s u r p r is e announcement of
calling Stevens as a witness
shortly before the trial was
recessed Wednesday until
Monday.
A virus epidemic caught
one of the jurors and a de
fense lawyer and both the
state and defense agreed to
the recess rather than replace
the male juror with one of
the four alternates.
Two hoodlums arrived
Wednesday night to be on
hand Monday along with Ste
vens to testify for the state.
The men were contacted in
Las Vegas, Nev., where Finch
and Miss Tregoff sought a
paid assassin to kill Mrs.
Finch, the state claimed.
John P. Cody was brought
in custody from a Minnesota
jail where he was serving a
term on a bad check charge.
He already has testified be
fore the grand jury, which in
dicted Finch and Miss Tregoff
that the couple paid him
$1,400 to kill Mrs. Finch. The
state said Cody never plan
ned to carry out the plot and
instead used the money to
gamble in Las 'Vegas.
The other man was Richard
A. Keachie who admitted, in
troducing Miss Tregoff, to
Cody. Keachie currently is
free on $2,500 bail in Nevada
on a charge of transporting
prostitutes from Minnesota to
Las Vegas. '

" THE CONCLUSION of a
ninth floor of a Broadway
1' i audience tried to crowd
lime. The late Fred Allen1
was herded into one ele-
vator, and so was a very
stout lady, just before the
door was shut.
'My husban d!"
screamed the fat . lady.
"You've left him outside!
You, shut the door in his
face! He was with me!"
Fred Allen tapped her
on the shoulder. "Coiir
r.ge, madam," he coun
seled. "This elevator is
not the Titanic!"
A gentleman boarded one
of those new coast-to-coast jet planes in New York the other day
and settled down to his newspaper. A stewardess interrupted him
to ask, "Wouldn't you like to take off that heavy raincoat?"
"Thank you, no," replied, the man. 'Tm, not going all the way
to Los Angeles, you see. I'm getting off at Denver."
