(AP) -- Jack Ruby in his dying days still in- sists there was no conspiracy involved in his killing of Lee Harvey Oswald, named by the Warren commission as the as- gassin of President John F. Kennedy. é Ruby, fully aware he is dying of cancer, wants to take any scientific test to prove for his- tory there was no conspiracy. "Jack has told me a dozen times or more he prays to be given a final lie detector test people will be convinced that Chicago lawyer and member of the legal team which Oct. 5 won a reversal from the death sen- tence for Ruby, described Ruby's plea to do anything to erase any doubt that he acted alone in shooting Oswald. They had seen Ruby an hour earlier in Parkland Memorial Hospital where Ruby, under guard, is undergoing treatment. This is the same hospital where the mortally wounded president and Oswald were taken. ANY REGRETS? Gertz and Earl Ruby were heated discussion, which obviously isn't on the topic of "goodwill toward men." However, the official is giv- ing O'Connor "the gate," following the altercation late in the third period of Saturday night's game, be- tween the rival coaches.
