Warren Commission (13 of 26): Hearings Vol. XIII (of 15)
United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. HUBERT. You say fourth year at the Southwestern University, does
that mean that you are a senior?
Dr. BIEBERDORF. That’s right. I graduate in June.
Mr. HUBERT. You will receive a M.D. in June?
Dr. BIEBERDORF. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. In June of 1964?
Dr. BIEBERDORF. Yes; that’s correct.
Mr. HUBERT. What time did you go on duty that day?
Dr. BIEBERDORF. I arrived down there about 9:30 in the morning.
Mr. HUBERT. Now, Doctor, I have shown you, and I believe you have read
what purports to be a report of an interview of you by FBI Agents
Mabey and Hughes on December 5, 1963, which I am now marking for
identification on the first page by writing as follows: “Dallas, Tex.,
March 31, 1964. Exhibit 5123, Deposition of Dr. Fred Bieberdorf.” I am
signing my own name on the first page; on the second page I am placing
my initials in the lower right-hand corner, the same with the third and
the same with the fourth and last. In order that the record may show
that we are both talking about the same document, I ask you please to
sign your name under my signature, or by it, and place your initials
also on the subsequent pages. Now, Doctor, addressing ourselves to the
exhibit marked now for identification as 5123, I ask you if you have
read it?
Dr. BIEBERDORF. I have read it.
Mr. HUBERT. Is it correct and true?
Dr. BIEBERDORF. In the main, it is. There are a few corrections in it
and additions that I would like to make.
Mr. HUBERT. Very well. Suppose that we do it this way. If you can
identify by page, paragraph and sentence that part which you need to
have modified by reading in quotes, as it were, stating then for the
record, “quote, unquote,” and then make the comment. I think that the
record will be better in that way.
Dr. BIEBERDORF. Okay. First of all, throughout this document my last
name is misspelled.
Mr. HUBERT. Well, let’s see. To get that straight, your last name is
[spelling] B-i-e-b-e-r-d-o-r-f?
Dr. BIEBERDORF. And it is spelled “B-e-i,” instead of B-i-e.
Mr. HUBERT. I see.
Dr. BIEBERDORF. Okay. And on page 1, paragraph 2, on the second
sentence of that paragraph that reads, “He stated he relieved a Bill
Hall, former classmate, who had been on duty since noon of the previous
day.”
Mr. HUBERT. Now, what is the comment you have to make about that?
Dr. BIEBERDORF. Well, he is not a classmate. He is a medical student,
but he is not a classmate of mine.
Mr. HUBERT. Otherwise, the sentence is correct?
Dr. BIEBERDORF. Otherwise it is correct. Okay. In that same--on page
1, second paragraph, the sixth sentence, which reads, “He advised that
from his position he had an unobstructed view of the basement parking
area and that he did not notice if there were any doors between them
and the basement area.”
