Goodbye to Bets. Beaming Jimmy Hoffa announced right there in the courtroom that he was going to call a teamster meeting in Chicago this week to decide his "future activities in the union." It seemed that, with discredited Dave Beck scheduled to bow out in September, Jimmy Hoffa was about ready to run openly for Beck's $50,000-a-year job as president of the nation's biggest labor union (1,400,000 members...
