Mr. SPECTER. Make a dotted line as to where he went, or take this black
pencil and make a line as to where he went.
(Witness marking.)
Mr. SPECTER. Where did you see him eventually go?
Mr. WORRELL. Well, he went on further.
Mr. SPECTER. Is that the last you saw him?
Mr. WORRELL. Yes, sir.
Mr. SPECTER. And did something come between you and him so that your
vision was obstructed?
Mr. WORRELL. Yes, sir.
Mr. SPECTER. As of the point you have just dotted out there?
Mr. WORRELL. Yes, sir.
Mr. SPECTER. What obstructed your view of him at that juncture or at
that point?
Mr. WORRELL. I can't really be sure, it was a building, but the type of
building, I don't know.
Mr. SPECTER. During the course of your seeing him, did you ever get a
view of his face?
Mr. WORRELL. Oh, no, no.
Mr. SPECTER. All right. What did you do next, Mr. Worrell?
Mr. WORRELL. Well, I went on down this way and headed up back to Elm
Street.
Mr. SPECTER. Indicating you went on down to Pacific?
Mr. WORRELL. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. And then proceeded----
Mr. WORRELL. No, no; that is wrong. I went on Pacific and----
Mr. SPECTER. Just a minute. You proceeded from point "Y" on in a
generally northerly direction to Pacific and then in what direction did
you go on Pacific, this would be in an easterly direction?
Mr. WORRELL. I went east.
Mr. SPECTER. You went in an easterly direction how many blocks down
Pacific?
Mr. WORRELL. I went down to Market and from Market I went on Ross.
Mr. SPECTER. You went left on Market down to Ross, and then?
Mr. WORRELL. From Ross I went all the way to Ervay.
Mr. SPECTER. Where were you heading for at that time?
Mr. WORRELL. For the bus stop near my mother's office. And I rode the
bus from there out to the school and hitchhiked the rest of the way to
Farmers Branch.
Mr. SPECTER. All right. When did you first report to any official what
you had seen and heard on this occasion?
Mr. WORRELL. Well, I turned the TV on early next morning to see what
had happened, and Chief Curry was making a plea----
Senator COOPER. Is that going to become a part of the evidence at this
point?
Mr. WORRELL. Chief Curry was making a plea for anyone who had seen the
shooting, would they please come down and make a statement. So I called
the Farmer Branch police, and told them, and they come and picked me
up, and they called the Dallas police, and they come way out there and
picked me up and took me downtown to make a statement and brought me
back home.
Mr. SPECTER. Mr. Worrell, before we leave this Exhibit 361, are you
able to testify as to the accuracy of the scale drawing here which
represents the part of it that you have testified about, specifically
the presence of the Texas School Book Depository Building on the
northwest corner of Elm and Houston. Is that the accurate location of
that building?
Mr. WORRELL. Yes, sir.
Mr. SPECTER. And is it an accurate reproduction of the intersection of
Elm and Houston leading into the parkway on Elm Street?
