Mr. Hubert. Would you say you have in the department any standard operative procedures to cover a situation like that?
Mr. Curry. Not exactly this type incident.
Mr. Hubert. So, in any case, you observed that that was a security check going on?
Mr. Curry. Yes.
Mr. Hubert. Is the same thing approximately true about the group that was in the assembly room when Oswald was brought down?
Mr. Curry. Well, now, I don't know that they were all checked as they went into the assembly room.
Mr. Hubert. Did you give any instructions about the security of Oswald there?
Mr. Curry. No; I just told them to keep the newsmen—and I told the newsmen they would have to stay back inside the confines of the room and not approach the prisoner.
Mr. Hubert. Let me put it this way—generally speaking, did you give any specific instructions regarding the security of Oswald, during that period we are talking about?
Mr. Curry. No, not this period—no.
