Mr. Kantor. Yes. September 1960 until May 1962.
Mr. Griffin. During those months, did you have occasion to meet Jack Ruby?
Mr. Kantor. Yes.
Mr. Griffin. Had you met him before September 1960?
Mr. Kantor. No; I had not.
Mr. Griffin. When did you first meet Mr. Ruby?
Mr. Kantor. Well, it was within a very few months after I joined the Times Herald. I was a feature writer for the paper. I think by nature of the stories that I wrote, I sort of attracted Jack Ruby. He came up to my desk one day and introduced himself and said that he owned a club or clubs in town, and that he thought he might have some stories for me from time to time, and he did.
Over the next several months, he provided me with maybe as many as half-a-dozen feature stories, on characters in town.
Mr. Griffin. Can you tell us what those stories are?
Mr. Kantor. One was with an entertainer in his club, a lady who managed to charm snakes while she was stripping. She was also a housewife in the suburbs by day.
