ALIB| IS HIT BY
PROSECUTION
Radio Announcer Killing Trial
On Fourth Week; Witness
Tells of Seeing Slayer

DETROIT, March 16 GNSO.-
The Gerald Buckley murder trial
entered it's fourth week today
With two crucial developments.
/. The State launched its at.
Jack on the alibi of Ted Pizzino,
one of the three men on trial for
the Staying of the crime-crusading
radio announcer.
Start to Building Alibi
2. Defense attorneys for An.
geIo Livecchi, another Of the
alleged underworld hoOdlun1s on
trial, began tO"build an alibi for
him through the testimony of
two Cleveland, O., witnesses.
Joe Bommarito, the third man
on trial, was not mentioned in
the testimony today.
Pizzino, who is alleged to have
been one of the trigger men" in
the Staying. claims he was in New
York City when Buckley was shot
and killed because of his (Buck-
leys) radio activities in the re-
call election last July, when
Mayor Charles Bowles was ousted
from office.
Pizzino Was Seen
Robert Davidson, negro la
borer, testified that he saw Piz-
zinc and another man and two
women at the city hall listening
to election returns on the night
of the Staying. Davidson quoted
Pizzino as saying:
of Mayor BowIes loses, don't
forget what we have to do TO-
night"
Bowles lost in the election. The
State charges that disgruntled
underworld executed Buckley for
his part in the election which
resulted in stricter law enforce
ment.
Names Mrs. Love
Davidson stated that one Of
the women with PiZZinO at city
hall was Mrs. Lucille Love. Mrs.
Love, at one time held under
$4,000 bond, has already testified
that she did not see PizZine on
the fatal night.
Julius Eisenberg and Maurice
Bassett, both of Cleveland, were
the witnesses whose testimony
aided Livecchi. Their stories
varied in minor detail from state
mentS made by other witnesses.
EiSenberg testified that he.
Livecchi and a group of men were
standing at the key desk at the
LaSalle Hotel lobby here where
Buckley was put on the spot
He said:
"We had been there about
eight or ten minutes"
SignaIed Gunmen
Defense of Livecchi hinges on
his whereabouts a few minutes be,
fore the shooting. He is alleged
by the State to have gone to
the side entrance of the hotel and
signaled to the actual gunner 3
few seconds before the radio idol
was slain.
Bassett told virtually the same
story, except to estimate that the
group had stood at the key desk
only five minutes. The latter
estimate, however, still precludes
the possibility that Livecchi was
the "finger-man" in the murder.
