Mr. Hubert. He had some sandwiches?
Mr. Duncan. Some sandwiches and colas, and I was introduced to him on the telephone and there was a mixup. Danny gave him the newsroom number, the telephone number.
Mr. Hubert. Is that what’s called the hot line?
Mr. Duncan. That’s what’s called the hot line—correct. He gave him the hot-line number and he was going to call and then there was a mixup and he had written it down and had forgotten it or Danny gave him the wrong number or something, and he called Danny again to get it again, and then he either called the newsroom and introduced himself to me with Danny then picking up his telephone in the control room or Danny introduced me to him on one of the other lines during the exchange of telephone numbers, and I do not remember which it was.
Mr. Hubert. Was it at that time that he suggested to you that he might be able to get an interview for you with Henry Wade?
Mr. Duncan. No, the first telephone call—the first conversation that I had with him was concerned mainly with an introduction and was he going to be able to get in and so forth and so forth.
Since Danny indicated that he knew him or had met him before, I agreed—well, we agreed to let him in, and normally of course we wouldn’t give someone the run of the station, but it had been indicated anyway that he knew people on the staff. He had advertised with us, among other things, and so he was going to get in, and then he called back.
Mr. Hubert. How long after?
Mr. Duncan. Well, I was just going to say—a few minutes—and exactly, I couldn’t tell. I would say it was probably not more than 10 minutes.
Mr. Hubert. Could you fix the time of each one of those calls?
