United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. CRAFARD. A clothing store of some sort, sir, I believe, I am not
positive.
Mr. HUBERT. What about the entry under that?
Mr. CRAFARD. Buddy, hyphenized, Floyd Turner, phone number LY 2-5903,
Tyler, Tex. I don’t remember ever meeting him. I believe Jack referred
to him as Budd Turner though.
Mr. HUBERT. Would that be a call that had come in or a call given to
you by Jack?
Mr. CRAFARD. I am not sure, sir. I believe it was one given to me by
Jack.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you know anything about that man?
Mr. CRAFARD. No, sir.
Mr. HUBERT. Never met him.
Mr. CRAFARD. Not that I know of.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you ever hear his name spoken other than in this
connection?
Mr. CRAFARD. No, sir.
Mr. HUBERT. Let’s turn over to the next page then which is page 5.
Would you read it because I can’t read your handwriting.
Mr. CRAFARD. Page 5 or do you want to read the reverse of page 4, sir.
Mr. HUBERT. I want to read the reverse of page 4 I beg your pardon.
Mr. CRAFARD. It starts with line Linda phone number RI 2-0720, and the
initials R. W. Bowsher.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you think that those three entries relate to the same
thing.
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t believe they do, sir.
Mr. HUBERT. Then tell us what they do mean independently.
Mr. CRAFARD. I believe the line DA and the line number is a number
where we could get ahold of this girl Linda, but the R. W. Bowsher I
have no recollection of what it would be.
Mr. HUBERT. Does it seem to be written with a different pen or pencil?
Mr. CRAFARD. The pencil that was used for the word Linda and the phone
number seems to have been sharper than the one used for R. W. Bowsher.
Mr. HUBERT. Was it your custom to separate independent episodes by
leaving a blank line between them?
Mr. CRAFARD. I have done so most of the time; yes, sir.
Mr. HUBERT. In this case you don’t seem to have done so.
Mr. CRAFARD. Sometimes I would put them right under something else.
Mr. HUBERT. Anyway your recollection now is that you think the word
Linda and the telephone number under it is independent from the line
that immediately follows which reads “R. W. Bowsher?”
Mr. CRAFARD. I believe so; yes sir.
Mr. HUBERT. Who is Linda?
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t know, sir; I don’t recall.
Mr. HUBERT. You said she was a——
Mr. CRAFARD. I believe she was more like a girl that called in answer
to the ad we ran in the paper.
Mr. HUBERT. What about R. W. Bowsher, then?
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t recall anything about him.
Mr. HUBERT. Let’s pass to the next entry which is separated from R. W.
Bowsher by a blank line.
Mr. CRAFARD. Buddy Heard, Loflin Hotel, phone number KE 2-4672.
Mr. HUBERT. Isn’t that 71?
Mr. CRAFARD. 71, yes sir. And underneath that the numbers 5336827, and
100 North Florence—and the word “office.” I believe that would be the
fact that Buddy Heard was staying at the Loflin Hotel. The KE number
would be a number where we could reach Buddy Heard. The next number
down would be probably a number for the office. I am not sure.
