Money Lost On Namu The Killer Whale
Seattle aquarium owner Ted Griffin says he lost about $50,000 in cash plus other personal funds on Namu the killer whale captured in Canadian waters in June 1965 and died at Griffin's aquarium in July. He notes Namu was the first killer whale to survive more than a few days in captivity, with souvenirs like sweatshirts sold. Griffin explains it cost about $100,000 to keep Namu through winter across Puget Sound, a sum not recouped by earnings.

Lane, an American lawyer publishing a book critical of the Warren Report, will bring the script to England. Frank Hauser, director of productions, proposed the project after meeting Lane in the U.S. this year. The two part play will not dramatize Oswald directly but present potential defense arguments using tape recordings and film clips.
