Dr. CLARK. The cardiotachioscope had been attached and Dr. Fouad Bashour had arrived. There was transient electrical activity of the President's heart of an undefined type. Approximately, at this time the external cardiac massage became ineffectual and no pulsations could be felt. At this time it was decided to pronounce the President dead. Mr. SPECTER. At what time was this fixed? Dr. CLARK. Death was fixed at 1 p.m. Mr. SPECTER. Was that a precise time or an approximate time, or in what way did you fix the time of death at 1 o'clock? Dr. CLARK. This was an approximation as it is, first, extremely difficult to state precisely when death occurs. Secondly, no one was monitoring the clock, so an approximation of 1 o'clock was chosen. Mr. SPECTER. Who was it who actually fixed the time of death? Dr. CLARK. I did. Mr. SPECTER. And did you have any part in the filling out of the death certificate? Dr. CLARK. Yes. Mr. SPECTER. And what did you do with respect to that? Dr. CLARK. I filled out the death certificate at the request of Dr. George Burkley, the President's physician at the White House, signed the death certificate as a registered physician in the State of Texas, and gave this to him to accompany the body to Washington. Mr. SPECTER. Did you advise anyone else in the Presidential party of the death of the President? Dr. CLARK. Yes; I told Mrs. Kennedy, the President's wife, of his death. Mr. SPECTER. And what, if anything, did she respond to you? Dr. CLARK. She told me that she knew it and thanked me for our efforts. Mr. SPECTER. Were any bullets or parts of bullets found in the President's body? Dr. CLARK. Not by me, nor did I see any such missiles recovered at Parkland Hospital. Mr. SPECTER. Were you a part of any press conference which followed on the day of the assassination? Dr. CLARK. Yes, sir; I was. Mr. SPECTER. And who made the arrangements for the press conference? Dr. CLARK. Mr. Malcolm Kilduff, the Presidential press secretary. Mr. SPECTER. At what time did the press conference occur? Dr. CLARK. Approximately 2:30. Mr. SPECTER. Where was it held? Dr. CLARK. It was held in room 101-102, Parkland Hospital. Mr. SPECTER. What mechanical instruments were used, if any, by the press at the conference? Dr. CLARK. Tape recorders and television cameras, as well as the usual note pads and pencils, and so forth. Mr. SPECTER. And who was interviewed during the course of the press conference and photographed? Dr. CLARK. Dr. Malcolm Perry and myself. Mr. SPECTER. No one else? Dr. CLARK. No. Mr. SPECTER. What, if anything, did you say then in the course of that press conference? Dr. CLARK. I described the President's wound in his head in very much the same way as I have described it here. I was asked if this wound was an entrance wound, an exit wound, or what, and I said it could be an exit wound, but I felt it was a tangential wound. Mr. SPECTER. Which wound did you refer to at this time?
