Description
Werewolf Fred Stroble pleas for help--now that he realizes fully that the gas chamber may be his last stop. His pleas were finally answered when his attorney, John Gray (left), went to visit him at jail. They are shown huddled, presumably talking about the "insanity" defense they'll use in attempt to save the killer of Linda Glucoft. Photo dated: November 23, 1949.
