Mr. Ball. Then it was changed, what day?

Mr. Fritz. Ten o'clock the night before the parade, I got a call at home telling me that my assignment had been changed and told me to go to the speaker's tent.

Mr. Ball. Who called you?

Mr. Fritz. Chief Stevenson.

Mr. Ball. Do you think that made any difference?

Mr. Fritz. I don't know. I wouldn't want to say because it is like telling about those transfers, where we would have been in that parade we would have been pretty close under that window we might have had a man shot or have good luck or bad luck.

Mr. Dulles. I didn't quite get you where were you to be in the motorcade if you had been?

Mr. Fritz. Right behind the Vice President's car.

Mr. Dulles. Behind the Vice President's car?

Mr. Fritz. Yes, sir.
