Mr. Eisenberg. Mr. Chairman, may I have these admitted as Exhibit 572?
Mr. McCloy. They may be admitted.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 572, and received in evidence.)
Mr. Eisenberg. Getting back to the two bullet fragments mentioned, Mr. Frazier, did you alter them in any way after they had been received in the laboratory, by way of cleaning or otherwise?
Mr. Frazier. No, sir; there was a very slight residue of blood or some other material adhering, but it did not interfere with the examination. It was wiped off to clean up the bullet for examination, but it actually would not have been necessary.
Mr. Eisenberg. Is that true on both fragments?
Mr. Frazier. Yes, sir.
Mr. Eisenberg. You also mentioned there was blood or some other substance on the bullet marked 399. Is this an off-hand determination, or was there a test to determine what the substance was?
Mr. Frazier. No, there was no test made of the materials.
Mr. Eisenberg. As you examined the bullet and the two bullet fragments, are they in the same condition now as they were when they entered your hands?
