to wait for DAVID FERRIE to arrive. MAROCHINI stated DAVE FERRIE
never left while he (MAROCHINI) was at FERRIE's residence. * MAROCHINI
states that the general conversation with DAVID FERRIE was on an
intellectual level and that FERRIE had a vast knowledge. They dis-
cussed such literary matters as the Divine Comedy. FERRIE often
teased DANTE MAROCHINI about his religion, particularly MAROCHINI'S
failure to attend confession.
(Clay Shaw)
Jim Alcock asked DANTE MAROCHINI, "Where did you meet
CLAY SHAW?
DANTE MAROCHINI replied, "Who is CLAY SHAW? Names mean
nothing to me." .
Jim Alcock explained that CLAY SHAW was the person in the
paper who had been arrested.
DANTE MAROCHINI said, "I never met CLAY SHAW."
Later in the interview, Richard Burnes asked DANTE MAROCHINI
whether he meant that he did not remember meeting CLAY SHAW or that
he positively remebered that he did not meet CLAY SHAW. MAROCHINI
expressed in emphatic terms that he was positive that he did not
meet CLAY SHAW and that it was not just a question of remembering.**
MAROCHINI recalled meeting a "SHAW" who lived at 1309 Dauphine who
was an entertainer and whose wife he also remembered. From the
description of this "SHAW" and his wife, he could not possibly be
referring to CLAY SHAW. MAROCHINI stated that he was living at
1309 Dauphine Street; that 1313 Dauphine was being remodeled while
he (MAROCHINI) lived at 1309 Dauphine but that he thought someone
was living at 1313 Dauphine Street at the time.
Other Persons Known or Unknown to Marochini

as CLAY BERTRAND. He states that he knows GEORGE PIAZZA whom he
met through JAMES LEWALLEN. He states that although he has no
interest in flying, that he had one previous flight about 3 1/2 years
ago in DAVID FERRIE's plane and that JAMES LEWALLEN and 2 others were
*See confidential report of 1962 for surveillance which contradicts
these statements.
**Note that this is a contradiction to the statement of JAMES LEWALLEN
and interview with JAMES LEWALLEN.
