Mr. Wright. It was about a month before I left town, I believe.
Mr. Griffin. While you were on the local board, did Jack come to you about his problems with the Weinsteins?
Mr. Wright. He went to everybody on the board about his problems.
Mr. Griffin. Did he come to you?
Mr. Wright. Yes.
Mr. Griffin. Did he feel that you were helping him or not?
Mr. Wright. Well, when I left town—in fact, the main reason, one of the reasons that I resigned from the board was the fact Jack thought after I had gone to work for Barney and Abe after leaving him, that I was against him, and whatever happened to the board, I was doing for the benefit of Barney and Abe. In fact, last time I saw Jack before I left town, he refused to let me in his club because he said I was with his competitors against him.
Mr. Griffin. I want to ask you some specific questions about that particular incident. How did you happen to go to Jack’s club that night?
Mr. Wright. Well, I was working at the Theatre Lounge, and the Theatre Lounge only does three shows a night, and Jack was doing a continuous show. I had about a 20- or 25-minute break, so I walked over to see Wally Weston, who was working there at the time.
Mr. Griffin. You didn’t come over to see Jack?
