I asked him, I said, "Did you go toward the building carrying a long package?" He said, "No. I didn't carry anything but my lunch."
Mr. Ball. Did Frazier ever tell you how long the package was?
Mr. Fritz. He just measured, told me about that long.
Mr. Ball. Approximately how long?
Mr. Fritz. I am guessing at this, the way he measured, probably 26 inches, 27 inches, something like that. Too short for the length of that rifle unless he took it down, I presume he took it down if it was in there, and I am sure it was.
Mr. Ball. Do you remember what time you—was it the way Frazier showed it to you—was it the size of a rifle that was broken down?
Mr. Fritz. Yes, sir; it would be just about right.
Mr. Ball. Later that night you took him down to the showuproom again, didn't you, when you had a press interview?
Mr. Fritz. No, sir; I didn't have a press conference.
Mr. Ball. You didn't?
