Ladies and gentlemen, we take you now behind the scenes of a police headquarters in a great American city For under the cold blaring lights will pass before us the innocent the vagrant the thief the murderer This is ball line up. I'm happy that is there a good audience We are still gonna play Tuesday as far as I know your house. Yeah, it starts getting out of hand. It sure doesn't

That stupid partner of yours, that stupid Irish luck. It's real courageous when he wins a few bucks. Diamond Jim Greb. He's been taking Greb. Oh, I'll kill him. No, let's stay away from someone. Oh, what is that really?

Oh, now come on. Oh, well, it's almost that. He had something wild and low. Oh, he didn't play and he was just kidding. With my money, he was kidding. How'd you feel? How'd you feel?

You people out there on the other side of the wire of the audience, Roy? I don't think so. Okay. Thank you. My name is Greb. Sergeant Matt Greb, I'll explain the line up to you.

He said, the suspect you will see will be numbered. I'll call off a number, their name and charge. At the end of each line, when I ask for questions or identifications, call off the number.

If you're sure enough to, sure of the suspect, have him held. The officers who took your name will assist you, they're seated among you. When the prisoners leave here, they are sent to the washroom and dressed back into their jail clothes.
