Mr. HUBERT. And you did not talk to him by phone?
Mr. CROWE. No; no.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you know George Senator?
Mr. CROWE. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you know Ralph Paul?
Mr. CROWE. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you know a man by the name of Breck Wall----
Mr. CROWE. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Who was staying at the Adolphus?
Mr. CROWE. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you know a man by the name of Joe Peterson?
Mr. CROWE. He was a musician, I believe.
Mr. HUBERT. You said you knew Armstrong. Did you know Larry Crafard?
Mr. CROWE. I don’t recall the name.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you remember a young man that seemed to be working
around the club there and sleeping on the premises?
Mr. CROWE. Yes; yes.
Mr. HUBERT. How did you know him, by what name did you know him?
Mr. CROWE. I don’t recall, I believe his name was Larry. I didn’t know
what his last name was.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you see or speak to any one of those persons during the
period from the time the President was shot until the time Oswald was
shot?
Mr. CROWE. Who all did you call off again?
Mr. HUBERT. George Senator, Ralph Paul, Breck Wall, Joe Peterson, Andy
Armstrong, and Larry Crafard?
Mr. CROWE. Andrew Armstrong is about the only one I can think of.
Mr. HUBERT. When did you talk to him?
Mr. CROWE. Let’s see, I called--maybe that wasn’t--Saturday, Sunday
morning, there wasn’t much time, it must have been after Oswald was
shot before I even spoke to Andrew.
Mr. HUBERT. Well, as I understand it then, there was no contact of any
sort whatsoever between you and any of those persons I mentioned, and
I will mention them again so that the record can be straight: George
Senator, Ralph Paul, Breck Wall, Joe Peterson, and Larry Crafard, there
was no contact between you and Andrew Armstrong, no contact between you
whatsoever, between the time the President was shot and the time Oswald
was shot, of any sort whatsoever?
Mr. CROWE. No.
Mr. HUBERT. How did you learn that the show would not go on on Saturday?
Mr. CROWE. Well, I didn’t figure it would go on on Saturday. I wasn’t
going to go down there until they called me, or somebody called me, and
they knew where I was, and if I did not get a call, why I wasn’t going.
Mr. HUBERT. When was payday, when were you supposed to be paid?
Mr. CROWE. Sunday.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you make any inquiry Sunday about your pay?
Mr. CROWE. No; there was nobody to ask.
Mr. HUBERT. Well, you mentioned that you did speak to Armstrong. When
did you do so?
Mr. CROWE. Monday; I believe Monday evening he called me on the phone
and told me to come to work.
Mr. HUBERT. Come to work on Monday evening?
Mr. CROWE. I didn’t figure I would go in until Tuesday, I figured they
would be out for a while. I think there was something in the Saturday
paper that Jack Ruby had put, stated immediately that the club would be
closed for 3 days.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you see that yourself?
Mr. CROWE. Yes; I believe I did.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you know Eva Grant?
Mr. CROWE. The name sounds familiar.
