Alban - any fingerprints left, is it normal

Adorjian - I don't know if they dusted for prints, to be

honest with you.

Alban - yeah, cause

Adorjian -Right off the top of my head I would have to tell

you know

Alban - yeah, we could get copies out there. It is way out

Adorjian - going to blow the whistle because of her goofieness

Alban - that could have been it, unless Piccerelli, Lou says

he is opening a place in Detroit, I don't know if he happens

to be an insurance recepiant.. I

don't know that at this point,

but we're trying to find out why Carrafa got hit. Initially

we think it was the classical cars you know, but then all of

a sudden they through us this damn curve and of course Lou

Piccerelli is an associate of all of them and then his wife

has Od and both Piccerelli and Knohls and Knohl has 19 busts

in N.Y.

Adorjian - do you, do we have any idea when she came to this

city here, Chicago

Alban - no I'm only into this thing for about two days.

She

according to Mrs. Carrafa's family that she has been in the

racketts and dating racketteers in Chicago and of course

Piccerelli knows the Zerilli family pretty well in Detroit:,

and he knows all the heavy OC figures in Washington, D.C. area

and this Maryland suburb.

Of course Jay Knohl has been

identified bt NYCPD Organized Crime as an unknown maybe a

pickup man for an unknown banker up there.

He's got 19 busts

with numbers, but he is a little bit more

than that, we have

a big timer down here that was involved with the Marvin Mandel

Governor of Maryland indictment and he had a tax lean of damn

near 1/2 million and this Knohl called him and said he would

bail him out if he could have a piece of the action, probably

infiltration of legitimate business.

D - uh huh, I'm pretty sure that is what he said, I'm pretty sure

that is what he told me, I never really, Gino just always wanted

to keep a lot of things to himself so I never really questioned

him too much. I didn't ask where he lived or anything like that

S - How did you get in touch with him

D- I never did, well either I called Gino's Classic Cars or else

I didn't get in touch with him. He usually was the one who would

get in touch with me.

M- do you think that he was mixed up in something that wasn't.

exactly on the up and up?

D - yes

M - what makes you feel that way?

D just for the different times when he wouldn't give me his phone

number of his address.

He said he didn't give it out to anybody,

and at times he said he wished he could tell me things but he

just couldn't and a awful lot of times he indicated things but

didn't come right out and say

a couple times this summer his partner lives in New York and

Gino went there quite often and he spent a good deal of time in

California recently.

M - how recently?

D. - oh, I guess it was, well it was my second semester of school,

you know, which was this past term, so it must have been in

February, March, April

M - Did he say why he went to California?

D. I was under the impression it was for art, looking for cars and

things like that

M - did he drive out or fly out, do you know?

D. - I think he, I'm almost positive that he drove back because that

is when he bought his second Lincoln

M - that is the one that he presently owns

exactly sure how he got out there.

tags on it

M- Did Jason ever tell you what kind of business he was in?

D- no, uh, I questioned Gino one time as to what Jason did and

Gino evaded the question and another time I asked Gino how

come if they were partners, how come it was Gino's Classic

Cars and uh you know Gino just said, not to ask questions

and made a joke of it as he usually does

M = to your knowledge, did Gino carry a lot of money on him?

D - always

M - always

D- always

M- can you give me an estimate of how much

D- no I never

M - a couple of hundred dollars

sometimes even more than that, he always you know had quite

large suns on him

M - uh huh, who did Gino have working for him, you know immediate

workers, right there all the time

D- Patrick just quit

M - Patrick

D - Sherman, just quit

M-, what did he look like?

D= uh, red hair, long, very long mustache, fairly heavy, he was

short,

5'7", 5'8"

M- do you know why he quit?

D - uh, Gino said that it was because he felt that he was holding

Patrick back and that Patrick was more or less in

a rut and

Patrick said that he had a lot of things on his mind and Gino

had a lot of things or his mind and it was better for both of

them if they split. Patrick was back in the area, Patrick had

been in a hospital and he came back, a matter of fact he was

in Sunday night, the night before the last when I saw Gino and

then he also came in with Gino's brother uh and sister-in-law

with Patrick when he came in last Monday

M- do you, have you been inside the building up there

M- does he have a lot of cars in there

D - well uh, he used to have three usually three in the showroom

and he had about three in the back that he was working on and

I don't know if he did sell that Cadillac or if it was stolen

or un, there had been a car in the paint room

M - now did you hear that a Cadillac was stolen in

the paint room

from California

D - I had heard that only through reading the paper, as a matter of

fact someone else called my attention to it, I didn't even know

and I couldn't understand why Gino didn't mention it to me that

Monday when be was in.

Because from the way I understood it,

the robbery happened on Friday or Saturday night and Gino was

in here MOnday and I couldn't understand why he didn't say

anything to me

M - you say he had some stuff stolen from the showroom

D - that is what, I was told from other people

M - did he have a large number of people hanging out up there

D- no, he also had another boy working for him, a young kid,

named Jay, Jerry, Jack his name was Jack. I think he was only

about 16 or 17

M - do you know where he lived at

D- no, he was just a young kid and

then of course the uh man who

lives next door he re-does furni, he refinishes furniture, he

would come over occasionally and the man who has the garage

mona car

just down from him would come down, but other than that

M - did Gino ever indicate to you that he commuted, commuted between

Bethesda

D- oh yes

M - that is a long drive

D- yes it is, I often asked him why he didn't bother to get an

apartment or house up here, but he didn't want to

M - did he ever say why

D - no

M- did he ever say why he got located here instead of down in :

Bethesda, his business

D - he said that he felt this was a better location because of its

where it was in relationship to New York and Philadelphia and

NW 88326 Docld:32266807 Page 27

## Page 28

D - some other places, just general it was a better place

M - why wouldn't New York and Philadelphia necessarily be a good

location to be close to

D - I don't know

M - you don't know

D - I'm not positive, but I think Gino was thinking of moving out

to the coast very soon

M- out to the coast, why do you say that

- he, uh, liked it out there and he said something to me about

moving out there and that uh in talking to his brother that

you know the just of the conversation about moving out to the

West Coast

M - which brother came to visit him

D- Joe, the baby in the family

M - Joe, where was he from?

D - Connecticut

M. - Connecticut. Did Gino ever buy you anything?

D - oh yeah, uh he sent me roses and little things

M- did he ever buy you any jewelry

D- no, not that I can think of

5-; I'm just curious, when we first started talking about him, you

mentioned the fact that you felt there was something, something

wasn't quite right about what Gino was doing and you spent some

time in the shop and everything, did you have any idea what

that might be

D- no, I uh, I never, I often wondered about it and I even mentioned

it to my sister, my sister had advised me to stay away from Gino,

but

s- well, why did you tell your sister if she advised you to stay

away from Gino

D- just that I thought he was doing something illegal that I thought

he

was mixed up in something, I don't know what just

cars

S- you must have had some guess or something

well impression of other things, everything seemed very odd to

me

S- for instance, what types of things did you question

D-. uh

S - don't miss understand, we're not trying to divulge any evidence

against Gino in any way,

M - we're trying to find out who did this to him

Gino was say about two weeks ago

D - his brother JOe and his sister-in-law and Patrick Sherman

s- Ok, did you get an opportunity to talk to him

D - yeah

S- what did the conversation involve

oh, they were giving me a hard time before and like being very

funny towards Gino and you know they were teasing him about

you know things like that, that was basically the, other than

general, his brother had bought a new car and he had brought

it down for Gino to look at it to see what Gino thought

was and the conversation just jumped around about cars and that

was about it

M - what type of car was that, do you know

D - it was something like a Vega, something like that

M - he bought it here in Maryland or

D- no, well his brother bought it in Connecticut and wanted Gino

to see it and they were on there way to uh Virginia Beach or one

of the beaches for a few days

they weren

S- did Gino every during the time you said, that you were trying

to break off the relationship, at least slow it down some, un

at any time during when you were having a good relationship,

did he ever give you any indication of how his business was

doing or anything like that

D- uh, Giro always tried to make everyone think that he vas doing

very well, you known

S- was that including you

D - yeah, occasionally he would you know make a joke if I don't

get. this

car sold that I'm not going to have you know, you

know some money, things like that, but usually he would try

to make it sound as if he was doing very well and he woula

try to you know show off his money, try to be very extravigant

with his money

s- when you were dating Gino, last summer, about how often were

you seeing him

D- about every week and he would take me almost every week

s- once or twice a week, something like that

D- well, I'd see him, you know I would see him two, three, maybe

four times a week and then, uh, Gino did buy me a piece of

jewelry, he bought me a charm for a charm braclet, they had

a going away party for me but that was just you know everybody

had bought me, Gino wouldn't always take me out on my day off

because a lot of things would come up that is another thing that

I couldn't understand is uh we would make plans to go somewhere

and all of a sudden he would call me up that afternoon and say

I'm sorry but I must go to Philadelphia for I must go here, he

just made a recent trip to Philadelphia as a matter of fact, uh

he stopped by to take me with him, but I already had another

date, so he left

M - did he say why he was going to Philadelphia

D - no,

cars usually

M - this is sort of personal, but did he every purpose marriage

to you

D- yeah, we had talked about it

M - uh, would you say he lived above his means of within his means

D - I don't know what his means were

don't know

D- either just getting out of the service or while he was in the

service

M - did he ever explain to you how he came into money to set up

his business

D- that Gino worked very hard for everything that he has gotten.

Patrick I think was trying to advise Gino to get out of what

he was doing, I don't know what Patrick, when Patrick was drinking

Patrick would tell me how you know he wishes Gino would

just quit all this and I don't know exactly what Patrick meant

by quiting

M - did Patrick go by a nickname

D-.. no

S- when was the last time that you say Patrick was with Gino and

them, where is Patrick now, do you have any idea

D- no, he may be working in construction, but I'm not sure, it is

either

construction or at a garage something like that

around here

D- Patrick, no, I.don't know of anybody that he would keep in

M - dia Gino have a bookkeeper or a Secretary of anything

D- no, he had one years ago but she

and he hasn't

replaced it

S- two or three years ago

D- uh, I guess quite a few you know

M - let me ask you this or maybe you can give us some kind of an

answer, or a speculation anyway, since you have known Gino and

dated him and so forth, did he ever: indicate to you or did you

ever get a feeling that maybe there was somebody out to get him

D- no, but uh, not so much Gino, but I knew Jason has had a couple

stunts with people in his neighborhood really and they had gone

as far as doing damage to cars and things like this, and I knew

Jason wasn't too well, you know slashed roof tops. and things

like this, I knew things like that, but as far as Gino not I.

M. - Why would Jason do something like that?

D- some disagreements in the neighborhood, and you know he had

killed a lot shurbs and they in return drove nails in his cars

been taken recently though

M. - Why do you say that?

D - I recognize the suit that Gino has on, it just got that within

a year

M - you don't know who the girl is. Are you sure that Gino lived

in Bethesda

D - Gino would always just refer to it as outside of D.c. and then

just recently he had been nore specific where he was living and

I know Gino has a housekeeper or somebody, because

Patrick told

me that Gino had somebody coming in and all the time watching

his dog and watching the house for him and Gino didn't get along

well with his neighbors as far as I know

S- why do you say that

D - because they always complained about where he parked his cars

occasionally I guess he would drive the older cars home and he

would want them right on the lawn close to the house and he told

me several times when people would come over and try to fight with

him he would tell them off and as far as I know he wasn't close

to anybody down there, with exception of the man who owned the

restaurant, I know he

M he was close with this guy who owned the restaurant

usually call the shots and Gino would usually Jason had more

to say about the business

business?

D- I took it that they were partners

M - Partners, 50 50. Did the name Stanley Tashoff ever arise?

D- Is that his lawyer?

D - yes

M - have you ever met his lawyer?

D - no

S -

such and such and he would contact Stanley

D- No, it wasn't white, one was beige and the other was silver,

wasn't it.

M - silver, OK, the one with the tag number GIND

trailer parked in the back, without the tractor, does that belong

S what did he look like?

D - I honestly can't tell you, I honestly can't

M - Does the name Bill Bogley ever come up in conversation, how

about a name Ronald, Ronald Smisek? How about a guy by the

name of Knohl?

M: - Did Gino seem to be upset over the fact that he had three of these

cars stolen?

D- no, not at all

M - he didn't?

D - no, that is why probably the reason he didn't mention it to me

S-: he never mentioned it to you?

D- never, not once did he say anything about it. He was in an

extremely good mood

S- Is Gino going with anybody now since you all have kind of

D - not that I know of, Gino is very set with me, I plan, uh and

going to talk with him, but when he came here to pick me up

that one time and take me out, he was very upset with me that

I already had another date and you know he was in the bar and

he tried to joke around with me and try to get me to come over

sit with them and his brother mentioned going out to dinner

together and I just made light of it and Gino was a little

to convince me into going out there for a weekend

D - Not right off I can't

M - let me ask you a question, when you went out with Gino and

Jason up in New York, where did you generally go?

D - Oh, I only went out with Jason and Gino one time in New York

and that was to an Italian Restaurant, Jolies

M - Julies

D - Giollies, an Italian Restaurant, something like Giollies,

Gino and Jason both liked the food there

Italian family who I guess it has been in the family for years

and they seemed to both go there.

charm that he bought you for your braclet what type of charm

was it?

D - A little car, a classic car

S- Where was it purchased, do you have any idea?

D - In a little jewelry store in Aberdeen somewhere.

M-

Did he always make reference to us people from D.C.

you mentioned something that he made reference to us people

from D.C.

D - no, no, he always said he lived outside of D.C. and he uh,

I always thought that he lived in D.C. up until one time when

he got a traffic ticket last summer and when he pulled out a

Maryland license, I said I thought you lived in D.C. and he

said well I say D.C. but it is really Maryland

M - Did he ever talk about going down to West Virginia any?

D - no, he did go to Pittsburgh in June to give somebody a car,

he was selling somebody something it was more like

a package

then he went you know to Pittsburg and he was going to bring

it to here, they had it worked out, so I know Gino went to

Pittsburgh in June

M - what time did he generally. get into the shop if you know?:

D - not until late, he wouldn't get in until 1l or 12, never

early

M - and he usually left at a decent hour?

D - well

it varied, sometimes he would leave at 6:00, sometimes at

7:00, sometimes he would stay until later on, depending on what

he wanted to get done

s- is this the most recent letter you have?

D- uh, I believe so because I think after that after he went to

Florida is when he went out to California and he didn't bother

to write to me at all from California, he called me he never

would wiite

S - When he called you did he call collect?

D- No, a lot of times he would call me person to person

M - he would call you at the restaurant

D- No, this was when I was in school

M = Oh, I see, at school

D - yeS

M- Did you get the impression that he fouled around a lot with

other women other than you

D- yeah

M- you did

M - was he a jealous type person? in your opinion

D- uh, average, he didn't like it when I went out with other

people and he got upset when he would call up at school and I

wasn't there, he always, he'd joke around, but he meant was

he was joking around

M - did he ever give you any money for your schooling?

D- no

M- did he ever give you any money at all?

D - he offered to do a lot of things for me but I'm not the type

person to take them

M- Like what did he offer you?

D: - know used, I was trying to decide whether to come back down

here again I didn't have a car and he told me that he would give

me a car if I came down here

M.- how about, you say, Pat lived there

D - yeah, upstairs

M-

upstairs, do you have any idea, how long Pat lived there?

D-. ever since I've known Gino he lived there

M - for at least two years then

D - well

M - two summers, that you know of

D - a year

M- a year, OK. Who drove the truck usually when there was something

to be picked up?

D - Gino used to have drivers, but right now I think Gino was doing

it himself, I'm not positive, but I think so

D- Jason's brother and Gino and this other man who will be at that

car rental place, all ran around together, the three of them

M - Jason's brother, the guy that ran the car rental place

D - the one that Gino would come see at the car rental place,.

Gino, uh I was there twice with Gino at this car rental place

and both times he was there, so I know he does something there

M. - now, this is at the Baltimore-Washington International Airport

D- right and if you can't get ahold of that man

M - what does this man look like?

D- uh, he has glasses and he is dark hair, if you can't get him

there I know another place where you would be able to find out

some information, it's called the Tim Buck Two Bar somewhere!

in that area and

that man goes there all the time, as a matter

of fact Gino used to go there a lot with him

M - and they were good friends

D- you know the first time I met Gino the three of them were.

together, David and Sully and Gino were together

(

M - David

D- David, Sully and Gino were together, I think that is there

1-: you think it is the man that owns it

D- right

M- but you think the person who owns the car rental place maybe

Sully or something like that

D - No there is three, David is one person and Sully is another

person

M - that runs the place

D - right and it is either david or sully, I always got the two of

them mixed up because whenever Gino would talk about them there

and I couldn't keep them straight

M- Well, the reason we asked you if you had any inclination that

Gino

was married is because he was

D- I thought that he, he had been because, well, last year there

would be note on his desk saying, you know, he had gotten a

phone call from what was her name Carol

M - uh huh

D - Carol, OK, and uh I didn't want to say anything you know about

it to Gino and he suspected that I suspected something and he

and he suspente

got real, very upset with me and we argued over it and it is

something I didn't want to know either way because I just didn't,

I didn't want to no and Gino was real upset that night

s- does that, knowing that he was married does that explain the

secret about it, about his business and everything or do you

still feel there is something that there is something of a

mystery about it

D- I still feel there

S- because you did suspect at the time

M - It isn't that he was married, up until he died he had a wife

D.- uh huh

M- OK, I just wanted to make that clear. This is a very mysterious

situation and we are trying to get to the bottom of it all and

ther is only one way of doing it and that is to talk to people

that were associated with him and like I say you have cleared up

some questions for us, but if there is anything else that you

NW 88326 Docld:32266807 Page 41

## Page 42

-21-

M - can think of that would be of any help to us, to aid us

we would appreciate it. We would like to get to the bottom

of it

S - Because this has happened so quickly, it is hard for us to

keep it in our mind, the

garble

that Tinker

wrote down. Do you

know the relationship there, Tinker

D - no

S- Thereiis, there was something in addition to that, that

bothered you, that bothered you sister

D - my sister, I made mention to my boss, I don't know if you

talked to him or not

M - up at the restaurant

D - yeah

M - yeah, we talked to him

D - but,

I thought no it's best to keep that to myself, but I

just discussed it with my sister that I suspect that

M - the one time that you went to New York, did you drive up

D- yeah we drove up in a rented car

M - in a rented car from where?

D - I don't know, he picked me up, he picked me up in the car:

M - why a rented car

D-

cause we were driving back in a 1940 Ford, Jason had bought

it and it was in Jason's garage

M - how long ago was this?

D - this was last July, probably July

M - did he ever give you any explanation why he wasn't upset

about having these three cars stolen from

D - no;

when he came out on Monday, he didn't even mention it.

If it wasn't for somebody reading the paper and they came in

they made a comment about it and I said you're kidding I wonder

why he didn't mention it, cause they came in on Wednesday and

he was in on Monday and the cars were stolen on Friday, Monday

and Wednesday and I said you're kidding he was just in here

and he didn't make mention of that to me and I was surprised

didn't say something you know cause something like that you

D- would think somebody would mention. I was very surprised

to find out that he had had cars stolen

M- but Sherman wasn't working there

D - no, but Patrick was back, uh, Patrick was in Sunday night.

Patrick and Gino came in

on Monday

M- the cars were stolen that weekend, right

D - on Friday

M- the weekend prior to that

D - right, like the cars

were stolen I believe on Friday, or

Thursday night weren't they

S- Thursday night or Friday Night

D- OK, so Thursday or Friday they were stolen and then it was

Sunday Patrick came in and Monday was when Gino and Patrick

and his brother and sister-in-law came in

s- so, did Patrick say anything about it

D - no

s- you don't know where Patrick was staying

D- Patrick had been in the hospital

S- which hospital was he in?

D- it must have been Northern Virginia

M - do you know what for?

D - I can't remember what he told me, I asked Gino why he didn't

mention it to me and he said that when you asked how Patrick was,

just because he was in the hospital he was still doing fine

and that is the way he passed it off.

I thought that was kind

of odd that Gino wouldn't tell me that Patrick was in the

hospital

Information received from Wolf, Dade County, that Lederer and

Roselli were well acquainted and Lederer is in the process of

opening gambling casino's in various foreign countries. Lederer

was allegedly involved in the murder of Richard Cain, an ex-cop

who went bad and had mob connections.

Roselli's toll records reveal that he called Fred Black on

July 27, 1976 - the day before he disappeared - at 1738 hours;

and he talked for four minutes.

It was also learned that a call was made to Black from Roselli's

residence on 8-1-76, and a call from Roselli's residence was

made to Lederer on 07-31-76 - three days after Roselli's dis-

appearance.

Roselli's sister and brother-in-law deny making

the calls.

It was also learned that on 08-27-76 an ex-CIA agent was called

by a subject whom identified himself as Dade County Detective

Robinson, and an interview was requested. This CIA agent was

involved

in an attempt on Castro's life. The CIA agent told

the subject named Robinson that he would call him back, and the

ex-agent then checked with Dade County and learned that they

had no one in Washington by that name.

The CIA has moved the

agent and his family from their residence for safety factors.

was arrested on 08-06-76 and remained in jail until at least

During the 1964 Senate Rules Committee investigation of the

Bobby Baker case, Levinson claimed the privilege of the lst,

4th, and 5th Amendments.

During the investigation, it was

revealed that Levinson was a stockholder with Baker in the

Waikiki Savings and Loan Association in Honolulu, the other

members being Cliff Jones and his law partner, Louis Weiner;

Edward Barrick, a part-owner in the Flamingo, Fremont, and

Horseshoe Club; Mike Singer, deceased labor racketeer

and former

business agent of Teamster Local 626 In Los Angeles; Morris

"Moe" Genser, former assistant chief investigator for the

California Department of Motor Vehicles, later indicted for

bribery, grand theft, extortion, and assorted other crimes;

and Fred Black, Jr.

Levinson also joined with Baker and Black

in a stock deal which involved the Farmers and Merchants

State Bank in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In May 1967, a U. S. Grand Jury in Las Vegas returned an in-

dictment of

income tax evasion against Levinson; Edward Torres,

former vice president of the Fremont Hotel; and Paul Weyerman

and Cornelius Hurlay, former stockholders and employees of the

Fremont Hotel.

In March 1968, Levinson pled nolo contendere to the "skimming"

charges, admitting that he had "willfully aided and assisted

in the preparation of false corporate tax returns for the fiscal

year ending in 1963", and was fined $5,000.

In 1967, a group of organized crime figures attempted to de-

fraud the Chase Manhattan Bank of almost $2 million, using the

Switzerland as a cover. The bank was

owned by a group of Americans, including several prominent

businessmen, as well as Levinson and Benjamin Siegelbaum.

The

investigation revealed that the Swiss bank had served as a

"laundry shop" for Mafia money for years.

On March 1, 1974, Levinson's wife, Betty, invested approxi-

mately $90,000 as a stockholder in Lake Elsinore Sands, Inc.,

a "restaurant, cocktail lounge, and gambling casino" at Lake

Elsinore.

The officers of Lake Elsinore Sands, Inc., are

Jack Barenfeld, President, who was arrested in

1934

for sus-

picion of murder; and Carl Braverman, Vice President and

Treasurer, who was arrested in West Virginia in 1927 for larceny

and again in New York in 1943 for untrue advertising.

Flamingo Club, a casino, along

with Las Vegas racketeer Irving

In 1951, he moved to Miami Beach, where he

operated the bookmaking concession at the San Souci Hotel.

Levinson was chased out of Miami in 1951 by the Kefauver

Committee, so he ventured to Las Vegas and became part-owner

in the Sands Hotel, which was being operated for Joseph "Doc"

Stacher, a Meyer Lansky lieutenant.

BY 1955, Levinson, having acquired interests in the Flamingo

and Dunes hotels, was ready to give them all up for his coming

involvement in Doc Stacher's Fremont Hotel. At that same time.

he also acquired a major interest in the Horseshoe Club.:

(BY

late 1963, he was the largest single stockholder in the

Fremont Hotel

Ed Levinson and Cliff "Big Juice" Jones,

former Nevada

Lieutenant Governor, were listed as stockholders, with the direc-

tors of the bank being Levinson; Benjamin Sigelbaum, a reported

bagman for Meyer Lansky; Irving Devine; and John Pullman.

Reportedly, the Bank of World Commerce served as a "laundromat"

for syndicate cash by allowing money to flow into the bank only

to return to the United States from Nassau in the form of

loans for everything from homes for gangsters to savings and

loan associations around the country.

During the 1960's Levinson became associated with several poli-

tical figures. No only did he aid financially troubled Teams-

ters President Jimmy Hoffa, but he became a partner in the

Serv-U Vending Corporation with Bobby Paker, then secretary

to the Democratic Majority

Aviation Company; and Benjamin Siegelbaun.

contracts and was substituted for a firm that had handled

North American Aviation's vending business for years, despite

the fact that Serv-U had no employees, vending machines, or

experience.
