Mr. Hubert. Now, I think these exhibits previously identified, indicate that you have known Jack Ruby for some considerable period of time prior to November 22?

Mr. Newnam. Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert. And in what way did you know him?

Mr. Newnam. I knew him as a person—as a customer of the Dallas News, in placing advertising which I handled for him.

Mr. Hubert. I think you placed his advertising for two nightclubs he had, the Vegas and the Carousel?

Mr. Newnam. Right.

Mr. Hubert. Did he always come to you with his ads?

Mr. Newnam. Not always because I wasn’t in the office, but he would if I was there. Now, some of the other man would handle these things, in the event the man who handles the account is not present.

Mr. Hubert. Normally you would handle his advertising?

Mr. Newnam. Yes.
