Mr. Griffin. How many other officers were standing around at that time?

Mr. Graves. Oh, I don’t remember really. Probably two or three or four.

Mr. Griffin. How close was Captain Fritz to you when you heard this?

Mr. Graves. As close as you and I are.

Mr. Griffin. We have a table separating us.

Mr. Graves. Yes.

Mr. Griffin. 6-foot, about a 6-foot table, isn’t it? Was he talking only to you, or talking to the other officers?

Mr. Graves. Generally to all of us.

Mr. Griffin. Now, at this time, were there newspaper people in the area?

Mr. Graves. I don’t believe. At the moment, I don’t believe any newsmen were in there at the time.
