Mr. Hubert. At that time it had not been decided whether Oswald would be transferred by armored car or by your police car, or for that matter, by the sheriff?
Chief Curry. That’s correct.
Mr. Hubert. Do you remember whether anyone gave any orders to the effect that press media and all authorized persons there should be kept on the east side of the rail that you just described, and not in the ramp area?
Chief Curry. That’s right.
Mr. Hubert. That order was given, do you remember?
Chief Curry. At the time, I instructed that all the press would be behind the guardrail—all the news media.
Mr. Hubert. Was any request made by anybody that they should be allowed to stand on the west side of the rail?
Chief Curry. Not to me.
Mr. Hubert. Was it your thought all the way through that they were being kept on the other side?
Chief Curry. Yes.
