Mr. Hubert. What was your understanding as to Buddy Heard’s connections to the twist boards?
Mr. Crafard. I believe that he had something to do with the production of the twist board in Fort Worth.
Mr. Hubert. What leads you to believe that?
Mr. Crafard. Because of the way it is set up here, he give me the number, he give me the twist boards. It was something to do with either the production or the selling of the twist boards.
Mr. Hubert. Now, there is a line, rather a vacant space under “twist boards.”
I would just as soon that you not make entries in the book.
After that blank line there is some writing “Fort Worth” and some other things that follow.
Would you read that into the record, and then tell us what the significance of that is?
Mr. Crafard. It would be the word “Fort Worth” phone No. “ED-51266” with a dash, and the words “give to Mike Shore only.” That would be a number where Jack Ruby could be reached and he didn’t want me to give the number to anyone but Mike Shore.
Mr. Hubert. Do you know why he didn’t want to give it to anyone but Mike Shore?
