Mr. Watson. I would think that there would probably have been two or three reporters here [indicating], and I am sure there were at this point. There was someone that was kind of in the way, and they had to move them, I think. And possibly right on that edge, I think all of the press were either asked or knew to get back at about that time. I think they all got over the rail about that time.

Mr. Hubert. How long had you been standing in this position before the shooting?

Mr. Watson. We had been in there somewhere 20 or 25 minutes. I'd say it must have been 35, 30 or 35 minutes.

Mr. Hubert. Now, do you think that if a man had been coming down the Main Street ramp just 30 seconds to a minute before the shooting you would have heard his footsteps?

Mr. Watson. I don't think so.

Mr. Hubert. Why not?

Mr. Watson. Lots of noise going on there. Another thing, I am kind of hard of hearing in my left ear. That is the reason, I think that I can't hear some of the things that were said—I got it in the Navy.

Mr. Hubert. In any case, you didn't see anybody at all?

Mr. Watson. No; I just remember glancing——

Mr. Hubert. Let me finish my question. Anybody coming down the Main Street ramp?
