Mr. Ruby. All right, get him to minimize it if he can.

Mr. Specter. He will bear that in mind and minimize it to the fullest extent.

Mr. Herndon. Are you ready?

Mr. Specter. Yes.

Mr. Herndon. Then, these gentlemen actually will not be aware of the questions, is that all right with you, I mean—prior to the time they leave? I believe we discussed that previously and I did want to mention it, that it would be so important when the questions would be asked.

Mr. Alexander. Not to me, Jack.

Mr. Ruby. I see—about your being aware of the question.

Mr. Herndon. Mr. Specter, you recall, previously—one of the reasons I was going over all the questions before actually conducting the examination was in order for these gentlemen that are in attendance to be aware of what questions are going to be asked Mr. Ruby during the actual polygraph examination. Now, if we dispense with that before we go over these questions, if they leave the room, they do not know the questions I’m going to ask him.

Mr. Alexander. I don’t think Jack has any objection to us staying here at this time, do you, Jack?

Mr. Ruby. No; I certainly don’t.
