Mr. Hubert. Were connected with news media?
Mr. Turner. No, sir.
Mr. Hubert. You felt that simply wearing this on your coat with the word, “Press,” was sufficient to get around as you wanted to?
Mr. Turner. Correct.
Mr. Hubert. Did you see them checking any other people?
Mr. Turner. To my knowledge, up until the following morning after the shooting of Oswald, there was no checking of passes that we ran into. Now, there was a checking after the shooting when we left the building, but I left the building with the pass, and came back in the building with the pass.
Mr. Hubert. I am sure that during the 48 hours, approximately, between the President’s death and the shooting of Oswald, that you must have had occasion to go in and out of that building a number of times.
Mr. Turner. I used it at Parkland Hospital. I used it at the city hall also without being stopped, or asked what kind of pass it was.
Mr. Hubert. Prior to November 24, did you know that man now known as Jack Ruby?
Mr. Turner. No; I didn’t, sir.
