Mr. JENNER. Do you recall anything else with respect to his reputation in the Russian community area? I'm not seeking specific instances, but only general reputation, the reaction of the Russian community group toward Lee Harvey Oswald before November 22? Mr. MAMANTOV. Yes; once he beat up Marina. Mr. JENNER. Now, that's a specific instance, and therefore is not reputation. May I explain to you that reputation in a community is what the whole body of the community feels after knowing a person for a while. It is a reaction gained by people in the community from many instances. Mr. MAMANTOV. Not from the one instance. Mr. JENNER. But, not from one--one instance is hearsay to us. Mr. MAMANTOV. Well--only, I know that he was undesirable--and after people met him a few times, or, we say, met even once in their own houses, he was undesirable to those people. Mr. JENNER. Was he regarded as a difficult person? Mr. MAMANTOV. That's correct. Mr. JENNER. I think you have said this, but may I ask you--your mother-in-law, Mrs. Gravitis, has served as a tutor for Mrs. Paine? Mr. MAMANTOV. I mean--she get the job through me. Mr. JENNER. Yes; of course. Mr. MAMANTOV. That put her to work with Mrs. Paine. You see, what happened, Mrs. Paine was calling me at the office and asked to teach--and I told her I'm not interested to teach individual students, and I suggested my mother-in-law, and this way we made arrangement for my mother-in-law to teach her Russian. Mr. JENNER. Are you acquainted with the reputation in the Russian community of Marina Oswald, and I'm going to ask you several subdivisions--first, as to her personality. Mr. MAMANTOV. From what I heard, she was a very pleasant young girl, was quite open in her discussions, in her conversations. My conclusion was that she is very pleasant to be around. Mr. JENNER. Are you acquainted with her reputation in the Russian community for truth and veracity? Mr. MAMANTOV. For whom? Mr. JENNER. As to her truth and veracity, that is, did she have a reputation with respect to whether she was or was not a truthful person? Mr. MAMANTOV. Right, I see what you mean. Mr. JENNER. A person upon whose statements one might rely? Mr. MAMANTOV. I don't know--as a community. I do know in our family discussion. Mr. JENNER. Well, I'll take that part of the community. Mr. MAMANTOV. All right. We didn't accuse her one way or another way, but we couldn't understand how she could come out of the Soviet Union so easily and also, statements she made to my mother-in-law about him living in a small apartment, which we still have relatives and, I mean distant relatives, and we know that they cannot live in a comfortable apartment. For this reason, we have opinion, or, we wouldn't trust her on the first-hand information. Mr. JENNER. Did she have a reputation in the Russian community with respect to whether or not she was a member of the Communist Party? Now, that is a political question.
