Mr. Duncan. I have read it and it is correct in total. I have marked on one page——
Mr. Hubert. Page 64?
Mr. Duncan. Yes—page 64—and this concerns the part of the testimony where I was being cross-examined by Mr. Belli and he asks me, paraphrasing, if after Ruby had seen Oswald, did Ruby seem pleased, satisfied—that he had seen this character, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera—I have an addition to make.
I can remember now one particular incidence and this came to mind after the trial. We talked for a few minutes on Oswald himself, his appearance and so forth, and I remember, I believe Ruby brought it up, that he was—to the effect—actually a fairly nice looking kid. We talked about how he would normally—could pass off as a college student somewhere, and the connection was brought up to a vague resemblance between Oswald and Paul Newman, the movie star. This is about the only addition that I could make to that.
Mr. Hubert. He was describing Oswald as he said he had seen him that night, wasn’t he?
Mr. Duncan. Yes; that’s correct.
Mr. Hubert. At a press conference?
Mr. Duncan. Yes.
Mr. Hubert. Did he comment upon how he happened to be there?
Mr. Duncan. Yes, he did. He said he had come to the front door of our studio with the sandwiches and cola and so forth that I have mentioned elsewhere in that testimony, and had tried to get in—the door was locked, and because of the long distance between the flight of stairs and the studio, no one heard him, and he said he went over the the city hall, the police department, Dallas City Hall, to try to find one of our newsmen to either give the sandwiches to him or let him in. While he was there, he said there was all of a sudden a lot of commotion, people running around, and he said he was caught up in the rush and before he knew it he was in an assembly room, being pushed by everybody and standing there with his big bag of sandwiches and everything, and looking up at Oswald, and he said this was when Oswald was brought out to be seen by the press after he had been charged that night.
