RUDE fron the ENGLISH DEPT MISS ELDER also was the Foreign students English teacher and talked with SIRHAN Socially I did not kcnow SIRHAN too well: I Know that he did not drink liquor and I believe that he was a MOSLEM He never told me this but this is what I believe I also believe that his friend MOHAMAD was a Moslem _ SIRHAN was a heavy bettor at the race track. I know that he used to go to SANTA ANITA a lot _ I myself to .Santa Anita but not as much as he every time that I did go , goused to see SIRHAN there He used to make bets 60-80 dollars on a race, One time when we were at Santa Anita a middle aged woman gave hir a' good tip on a horse and he gave me the the norse came in and he made a lot of money on his bet No SIRHAN did not have any friends that I know of 9 he was a very quiet type of man and the only time that I remember him talking to any girls was during our meetings at the International Club _ I remember seeing him ta3hiR81t to 3 by the nae of nSUZIE" and another by the name of but I don t remember their last names But to my knowledge he didn't have an girl friends and 1 never saw him with a girl, I truthfully can't say #here SIRHAN got his I remember that at one time he was working in a gasoline station ZneFasadezer in After he left schoolssomewhere around the middle of 1964 I believe, I think it was 1964 anyway I heard: that he was working horses in Del I think that his brothez the one that wears a beard and works at the FEZ as a musician got him the job in Del Mar. His brother is a much_bigger bettor than STRHAN was , and I think that he'is the one that told me that SIRHAN was working in Del Mar and that he had had an accident . When I saw SIRHAN at Santa' Anita in February or January of this Year I tol him that I had heard about his accident I asked him how he was feeling andithe told me that everything was alright , He was real happy _ He told me he felt fine but that he was suing tse people and that he was going to get some money from then_ Yes during the time that I knew SIRHAN he had two cars first he had a 1952 or 1953 black cadillac and then. the kst car that he had was a real big one , it was a huge reddish DeSoto but I am not sure of' the year. Onct or twice he drove me hone when I was walking from school To my knowledge SIRHAN didn't return back to Jordan or anywhere that I did, big tip, girl girl girl No_ Mar -12- ================================================== Page 6 ================================================== LE (C(P?Y page 3 GOEL , Mohan report know of I remember seeing him in the track in Santa Anita during 1964 and' 1965.
