United States. Warren Commission

Mr. JENNER. But the first one you remember is the house on the corner
that you have mentioned?
Mr. PIC. Yes, sir.
Mr. JENNER. Do any of these addresses refresh your recollection? 2205
Alvar?
Mr. PIC. It may be the address of the house on Alvez and Galvez, I
don't know.
Mr. JENNER. No?
Mr. PIC. I don't know, sir. No, sir.
Mr. JENNER. 2123 Alvar?
Mr. PIC. No, sir.
Mr. JENNER. 1661 Paul Morphy?
Mr. PIC. No, sir.
Mr. JENNER. 2132 Gallier?
Mr. PIC. The name, the streets sound--I may have heard it before.
Mr. JENNER. 1917 Gallier?
Mr. PIC. Only the street sounds familiar.
Mr. JENNER. 805 Greenwood?
Mr. PIC. No, sir.
Mr. JENNER. 220 North--my pronunciation will be bad--Telemachus.
Mr. PIC. No.
Mr. JENNER. 123 South Cortez?
Mr. PIC. No, sir.
Mr. JENNER. You had to get away yesterday before a letter arrived
which is at your base now, from Mr. Rankin, general counsel for the
Commission, confirming arrangements for you to appear and have your
deposition taken before the Commission, and enclosing with that letter
copies of the legislation being Senate Joint Resolution No. 137
authorizing the creation of the Commission, and a copy of President
Johnson's Executive Orders bringing the Commission into existence No.
11130, and a copy of the rules and regulations of the Commission itself
for the taking of depositions.
When you return to Lackland base you will find that letter probably in
the possession of your Commanding Officer, and he will deliver it to
you.
The Commission was authorized by the resolution I have mentioned and
brought into existence by the President to investigate the facts
and circumstances involved in and surrounding the assassination of
President Kennedy on November 22, 1963, and we have understood from
witnesses and other information we have, that you had and still have
information bearing upon the facts and circumstances relative to that
assassination, and it is this line of questioning that is directed
toward that.
We appreciate your appearing voluntarily from Lackland base to appear
here today.
That letter, and the enclosures state that you are entitled to counsel
if you want counsel present, and if you desire to have counsel present
I can suspend this now.
Mr. PIC. I have nothing to hide, sir.
Mr. JENNER. Go ahead, John.
Mr. ELY. I just wanted to check on a couple of addresses with you, sir.
914 Hennesey, do you remember that?
Mr. PIC. No, sir.
Mr. ELY. What about Taft Place?
Mr. PIC. No, sir.
Mr. JENNER. You attended William Frantz Elementary School in Dallas,
did you not?
Mr. PIC. New Orleans.
Mr. JENNER. With your brother, Robert?
Mr. PIC. What grade was I in, sir. He was two grades behind me. If I
was in the third, he was there. If I wasn't, he wasn't.
Mr. JENNER. Well, the record shows you enrolled in William Frantz
School at 3811 North Galvez on the 16th of September 1936 at which time
you were 4-1/2 years old.
Mr. PIC. Well, he wouldn't be there.
