Mr. STOVALL. When we took this identification off of Lee Oswald that
had this selective service card, the name Hidell, and he also had his
own identification--at the time we were in the garage we found some
negatives out there that appeared that he had make a snapshot of a
selective service card, and on the back of the negatives it was where
the name would have been typed in--there was some stuff on the back of
the negatives to block out the name when it was reprinted, and there
were some selective service cards that he had printed himself out there
from a negative that were blank and which appeared to be the same that
he had on him at the time, on the 22d of November, that had the name of
"A. Hidell" typed in on it.
