 "What was his business7" her counsel, John Roberts of Enid, 7"He told me he was gambling ana playing the races"
 She smiled continuously at the jury. Once when Joseph E. keenan objected to q defense questions, and was overruled, she turned to bald, bespectacled Judge Edgar s. Taught before giving her answer.
 "Oke?" she inquired with smile.
