Mr. JENNER. Then, I take it, that a record of the transaction was made? Mr. ADAMS. Yes. Mr. JENNER. If it occurred? Mr. ADAMS. Yes. Mr. JENNER. And you have no recollection independent of that record? Mr. ADAMS. No, sir--if I might clarify that, sir, by saying that in the case of an applicant with whom one has repeated dealings, whether good or bad, these would stick. Otherwise, one talks to anywhere to 10 to 30 applicants a day, day in and day out, personally and by telephone and with the exception of those applicants with whom I have had extensive dealings either because they are problem cases or because they are really outstanding good applicants, I don't remember that. If confronted by one, I could be able to say, "Yes; I have talked to that man," but otherwise I couldn't. Mr. JENNER. You apparently indicated to Mr. Odum, a reference on your part on October 8, to Solid State Electronics Co. of Texas, do you recall referring him to the Solid State Electronics Co. on or about the 8th of October 1963? Mr. ADAMS. I can recall having had that order because it was unusual in the sense that I had not dealt with an order of that type before from a company engaged in the sale of electronics parts who wanted an individual who had had some knowledge of electronics or electronics parts. Presumably, if I referred to--Mr. Oswald, it was because his military or civilian background indicated he had had training in this field. Mr. JENNER. Do you recall any more about that incident? Mr. ADAMS. No; I can't say I do, sir. Mr. JENNER. Do you recall what the nature of the job was? Mr. ADAMS. As best I can recall, it was where--it was loosely what we called a parts counterman. Mr. JENNER. Parts counterman? Mr. ADAMS. A sales clerk. Mr. JENNER. A sales clerk? Mr. ADAMS. Yes; in sales. Mr. JENNER. Do you recall what the salary was? Mr. ADAMS. It seems to me it was quite good for the Dallas area. I would guess it was in the neighborhood of in excess of $75 a week, it seems. Mr. JENNER. I take it that that reference was made to Oswald then by telephone rather than his coming into your office? Mr. ADAMS. My policy as a placement interviewer, sir, is this: If I have once met an applicant and then there is not a long lapse until such time as I have an opening to discuss with him, or on which to refer him, I will refer him by telephone if I think he is otherwise qualified. Mr. JENNER. Do you recall his coming into the office the 8th or the 9th of October? Mr. ADAMS. I couldn't honestly say that I do; no, sir. Mr. JENNER. Would this registration card have some entry in that respect, if he came in? Mr. ADAMS. Well, possibly. The policy in our office is that each month an individual should be contacted either by phone or in person. If a person is contacted more than once, either by phone or in person, only the initial date for that month is shown. It is repetitive and takes up a lot of unnecessary space.
