AQ 44-391

minor gambler. Informant learned through JACK HARDEE, JR.,

latter presently being a fugitive, (Bufile: 88-21156),

that RUBY had a "good in" with the Dallas Police Dept., which

would be borne out from his observation that RUBY had a B-girl

operation where drinks were pushed heavily with no interference

from the police department. AQ 195-PC

had a brief conversation

with RUBY.

On 11/25/63, LOU LEBBY, 722 Sundown Place, SE,

Albuquerque, N.M., who requested his name be kept confidential,

is a previously admitted former bookmaker in Chicago, Ill. He

grew up in Chicago in the same general area as JACK RUBY, known

to him'as SPARKY RUBENSTEIN.. States as a child was not closely

acquainted with RUBY, but knew RUBY's father as the neighborhood

drunk.

JEBBY described RUBYcas emotional,.

unstable and a person

who made his living primarily from "scalping" tickets to sports*

events in Chicago and at one time traveled throughout the:

country selling punch boards prior to the senator KEFAUVER

investigations:

LEBBY described RUBY as an extremely stubborn person

and a publicity hound due to RUBY's emotional instability.

LEBBY did not think it unusual when RUBY was reportedly more up-

set over the death of the President than the death of his own

father. LEBBY said he was surprised. when RUBY actually killed

OSWALD, adding that he would think it more proper that RUBY

would shoot him in the leg with a 22 caliber weapon in order

to get publicity.

LEBBY saw RUBY approximately 14 years ago at Dallas,

Texas, for the first time in more than 20 years. He-knew of

RUBY's presence there and visited him at the Carousel Club

where they talked briefly of old times.

LEBBY knew of no

specific connections of RUBY at Chicago, Illinois, or with the

Dallas Police Dept., and stated that RUBY had no contact with

organized criminal, hoodlum or subversive element. • He did not

know OSWALD and knew of no connection between the two.
