The case of the Lucky Loser [antikvár]

p: —-- FOREWORD Nearly a year ago my good friend John Ben Shepperd, the Attorney General of the State of Texas, told me, "The next big development in law enforcement must come from the people rather than from the police." General Shepperd wasn't content with merely predicting such a development. He discussed it with several influential businessmen in Texas, and soon these businessmen began to take action. J. Marion West of Houston, Texas, affectionately known as "Silver Dollar" West, is an attorney at law, a cattleman, an oil operator, and is widely respected for his knowledge of pohce science. He spends a large portion of his time assisting local police officers in the Houston area. I have for some years been associated with Park Street, who is a member of "The Coxirt of Last Resort," a San Antonio attorney with driving energy, and a boundless enthusiasm for his work. Park Street has as his lifetime ambition a desire to improve the administration of justice. Jackson B. Love, of Llano, Texas, is an ex-Texas Ranger who has had considerable experience as a peace officer. He owns and operates a large ranch, has exceptionally sound business judgment, is quite an historian, and collects books dealing with the frontier period of the West. W. R. (Billy Bob) Grim, of Kilgore, Texas, a man with extensive oil interests in Kilgore, Longview and Dallas, is vitally interested in state police work and is an authority on weapons. 1 ! ' i
