Mr. CRAFARD. There was another one. The Penway notebook was about 6
inches long, and about 4½ inches wide.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, let us look at these names in here.
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t recognize any.
Mr. GRIFFIN. You don’t recognize a single name? Did you know Cecil
Hamlin?
Mr. CRAFARD. No; not that I know of.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you know what the Century Distributors, Inc., are?
Mr. CRAFARD. Century Distributors, Inc.?
Mr. GRIFFIN. Yes; what are they?
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t know.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you ever know Jack to be interested in any
prizefighters?
Mr. CRAFARD. No; not that I knew of.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you ever hear of a Willie Love?
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t remember that name.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you ever hear Jack talk of Lewis McWillie?
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t remember.
Mr. GRIFFIN. L. J. McWillie?
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t remember.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you ever meet a fellow named Lawrence Meyers?
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t remember him.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you ever meet any of Jack’s friends from Chicago?
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t remember.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you remember when you were at the State fair ever
meeting any other people with Jack?
Mr. CRAFARD. No.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you remember when the first time was that you met Joyce
McDonald?
Mr. CRAFARD. It was at the fairgrounds. She came out with Jack.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you meet her out there; did you meet any men out there
with her?
Mr. CRAFARD. I don’t—it seems like there was a couple of men with them,
but I was never introduced to them.
Mr. GRIFFIN. I will state for the record that this notebook which we
have consists of 20 pages and those 20 pages include the cover which
is marked “Addresses,” and that is page No. 1, and the remainder of the
pages are numbered consecutively through 20. I might also indicate that
on each page of this exhibit, with the exception of page 1 and page 20,
two pages are photographed open, so that would make a total of almost
40 pages of actual written addresses. I hand you, Larry, what has been
marked as “Exhibit 5205, Washington, D.C., C. L. Crafard, April 9,
1964,” and I have put my signature on there. This is a photograph of
a group of people, and there is an arrow pointing toward one of the
people. First of all, can you tell us if you recognize the place in
which that photograph was taken?
Mr. CRAFARD. It appears to be the Carousel Club.
(The document referred to was marked Crafard Exhibit No. 5205 for
identification.)
Mr. GRIFFIN. Is there anything about it that looks like the Carousel?
Mr. CRAFARD. You can just see the portion of the runway across here.
Mr. GRIFFIN. This is in the lower left-hand corner?
Mr. CRAFARD. Lower left-hand corner of the picture, and the Carousel
was the only club in Dallas to have runways, to seat the customers on
runways. These gentlemen are sitting right on the runway.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you see anybody in that picture that you recognize?
