GS: Yeah, it would depend, it would depend. Some of the
transportation stuff was done by Charlie Clapp. It was
transportation policy stuff that was not of immediate need, in
which case it would pass my desk and I wouldn't know anything
about it. It would also pass Krogh's desk with the same reaction,
you know, "Oh, yes." Other than that, I would pretty much know

TG: So for these areas that you have mentioned, your office files,
plus Bud Krogh's, would be the gold mine, the place that we should
look to.
GS: Yes. We put an awful lot of blunt language down on crime and drug
initiatives and why we were doing stuff and how it would work.
The chron files, I think mine especially--the other reason that a
lot of the stuff will be in mine instead of Bud's, is because my
secretary did all the typing for Presidential papers. She was
trained at IBM, and she typed immediately and letter perfect, and
so we had a gold mine going for that reason.
TG: Was that Donna Larsen?
GS: NO it was not; it was JoAnne LaMere. It's really, it's an
interesting group. JoAnne LaMere was my secretary and roomed with
Kathy [Kathleen A. ] Chenow, who unfortunately when Donfeld left,
she was Donfeld's secretary, she went down to the Room 16 unit and
entered into horror. Bud Krogh's original secretary was Jane
Dart, who married John Campbell and moved to the West coast. She
was replaced by Saundra Greene, who married me after Krogh left.
When Kathy Chenow left, she (my secretary Joanne) became good
friends and roomates with Walt Minnick's secretary who's Gay, her
