A Dirty Little Company

The biography of Jack Ruby presented by the Warren Commission fitted the profile of a typical agent of the internal security apparatus, which preceded the organizations established under the National Security Act of 1947. Surprisingly the commission provided many details to argue that Ruby was actively engaged in local security operations.
Jack Ruby had one rumored and three documented linkages with witnesses to the shooting of Officer Tippit. These witnesses were Temple Ford Bowley, Barbara Jeanette Davis, Mrs. Charlie Virginia Davis and Helen Markham.
The message pad of Larry Crafard listing incoming calls for Jack Ruby contained the WH3-8120 telephone number that Barbara and Virginia listed on their affidavits concerning the shooting of Tippit.

Another witness to this shooting, Helen Markham, was waiting for a bus to take her to work at a place described by Ruby's roommate, George Senator, as his hangout.

George Senator was a regular customer at Eat Well. He was at this place when the news of the shooting of Oswald by Jack Ruby was broadcast. Needless to say, George promptly left the restaurant.

A listing of witnesses by the Criminal Division of the Department of Justice noted that Helen Markham knew Ruby as a customer.

These documented linkages lend credibility to the rumor that the first citizen who used the police radio to report the shooting of Officer Tippit, Temple Ford Bowley, was a longtime friend and a former employee of Jack Ruby. I describe this linkage as a rumor because the HSCA contact report allegedly containing this information is still classified.
Ruby's circle extended beyond Oak Cliff. A piano player at his Carousel club , William F. Simmons, lived at 2530 West Fifth Street in Irving. The Warren Commission reported the address of Simmons as 2539 West Fifth Street.

Ruth Paine and Marina Oswald resided at 2515 West Fifth Street.
A few days before the assassination, Jack Ruby had a business meeting with Bertha Cheek whose sister, Earlene Roberts, was the housekeeper at the former room rented by Lee Harvey Oswald under the name of O. H. Lee.

On the afternoon of November 22, 1963, Williams Scoggins picked up a passenger at Love Field at about 12:35 PM and drove them to 321 North Ewing.

Andrew Armstrong, Jr. identified Kathy Kay as Kathy Coleman

Mr. ARMSTRONG. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. One of them has blonde hair and seems to be dressed in black, has a black sweater, apparently, and black pants visible in some of the picture; do you know who she is?
Mr. ARMSTRONG. Kathy Kay.
Mr. HUBERT. What is her full name?
Mr. ARMSTRONG. Kathy Coleman, I think it is.
According to Mrs. Irene Hall, the manager of 321 and 325 North Ewing, Kathy Kay Coleman resided at 321 North Ewing.

In December 1963 or January 1964, Kathy Coleman married Harry N. Olsen and became known as Kay Helen Olsen.
Joyce Lee McDonald worked for Jack Ruby under the stage name of Joy Dale.

The C. Ray Hall Exhibit 1 gives the address of Joyce McDonald as 410 1/2 10th Street without specifying whether the address is on the east or the west side.

A criminal intelligence report by the Dallas Police Department found in box 18, folder 9, item 2 of the Dallas Archives stated that McDonald was living at 424 1/2 West 10th Street and listed previous addresses as 328 1/2 East 9th Street, 427 West 10th Street, 3116 Alaska and 2921 Michigan.
In late November of 1963, Helen Markham was living at 328 1/2 East 9th Street and William Scoggins resided at 3138 Alaska.

The Warren Commission did not call Joyce McDonald as a witness.
I suggest these linkages have a simple explanation. Ruby ran a dirty little company.
