Frank Szollosi Gets An Offer
Left: Teamsters boss Bill Lichtenwald(Toledo, OH) Councilman Frank Szollosi met with Bill Lichtenwald, president of Teamsters Local 20, yesterday morning at the Hotel Radisson. Szollosi said he wanted to reach a "reasonable" compromise in the fight for the council presidency.
"I went to see him; only this time he was with Luca Brasi," said Szollosi. "He made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Luca Brasi held a gun to my head and Lichtenwald assured me that either my brains, or my signature, would be on the contract."
Szollosi said that he was surprised at Don Lichtenwald's tactics, but a friend put him straight on the issue.
""Whatya gonna do? Nice college boy, eh? Don't wanna get mixed up in the family business?" Szollosi quoted his friend. "Whataya think this is, the Army, where you shoot 'em a mile away? You gotta get up close like this... badaBING! you blow their brains all over your nice Ivy League suit. C'mere... you're taking this very personal."
Lichtenwald confirmed the meeting with Szollosi and said he was within his rights as a citizen to express his views to an councilperson about his support for Mark Sobczak as president.
""It makes no difference to me what a man does for a living, understand," said Lichtenwald. ""But I'm a superstitious man. And if some unlucky accident should befall Mark Sobczak- If he should get shot in the head by a police officer, or if he should hang himself in his jail cell - or if he's struck by a bolt of lightning, them I'm going to blame some of the people in this room."
Szollosi said he hopes that a visit to Don Richtenwald's daughter's wedding will patch things up.
"No Teamster can refuse any request on his daughter's wedding day," said Szollosi. "I hope that his daughter's first child is a boy."

Yes, it is the day of my daughter's wedding. You may ask of me one request, which I am obligated to grant.
But I'll break your fucking kneecaps if you ask me to be council president.

It figures that Frank Szollosi didn't get his way, so he went running to John Robinson Block. Expect The Blade to be targeting the Teamsters (the same way they targeted Tom Noe) because Frank Szollosi is John Robinson Block's boy, and John Robinson Block doesn't like it when anyone messes with his flunkies.

I heard Don Lichtenwald and Szollosi had another meeting where Frank was suppose to give his decision about who to support for council president. Szollosi was heard saying to the Don, "I don't know what to do. My voice is -- is weak. It's weak. Oh, Godfather, I don't know what to do. I don't know what to do."
That's when things got a little rough, I guess. Don Lichtenwald got up, slapped Frank in the face and said, "You can act like a man! What's the matter with you? Is this how you turned out? A Toledo City Councilman that ah cries like a woman?"

Wait a minute, Szollosi, Sollozzo. Just a little too close there.
The other day, a "friend" of mine overhead Sobczak describing Szollosi to Don Lichtenwald. Mark said, "Szollosi is known as 'The Turk.' He's supposed to be very good with a knife, but only in matters of business or some sort of reasonable complaint. Now -- he needs cash, and he needs protection from the police."
Too many demands by Frank, maybe that's why their meeting went sour.
