Warren Commission (15 of 26): Hearings Vol. XV (of 15)
United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. HUBERT. You think the man you just talked about in Crafard Exhibit
No. 5206 is not the man that you have been referring to as possibly
Oswald in your previous statements to the FBI, to the press, and so
forth?
Mr. CROWE. Right.
Mr. HUBERT. But that he does bear some resemblance to him?
Mr. CROWE. Right. I could be wrong.
Mr. HUBERT. Would you look at----
Mr. CROWE. Oh----
Mr. HUBERT. Exhibit No. 5205 of the deposition of C. L. Crafard, and I
ask you to examine that picture with the same purpose in mind.
Mr. CROWE. Yes, the second person in the foreground has some similarity
to Oswald, doesn’t he?
Mr. HUBERT. You are talking about the man who is just left of center in
the lower quadrant of that photo?
Mr. CROWE. Right.
Mr. HUBERT. As to whom there is pointing a little pen written arrow; is
that correct?
Mr. CROWE. Right.
Mr. HUBERT. What is your comment as to that man, with reference to the
possibility that he is the man you saw a week before the President was
shot, in the Carousel Club, and who took some part in your memory act?
Mr. CROWE. Well, I wouldn’t say that he was the man I saw.
Mr. HUBERT. What comment do you have to make about him then?
Mr. CROWE. He does favor Oswald.
Mr. HUBERT. I gather that your comment as to the man in the picture
identified as Exhibit No. 5205 is substantially the same as your
comment made with reference to the man in Crafard Exhibit No. 5206, is
that correct?
Mr. CROWE. Right.
Mr. HUBERT. Is it stronger or weaker, that is to say, do you think the
resemblance to Oswald is stronger in one picture than it is in the
other?
Mr. CROWE. I would say stronger in Crafard Exhibit No. 5205. He is not
smiling.
Mr. HUBERT. Now, as to the man you have pointed out in Crafard Exhibits
Nos. 5205 and 5206, do you recall ever having seen him in the Carousel
before?
Mr. CROWE. As to him personally, I couldn’t say for sure. The clothes
are not familiar to me.
Mr. HUBERT. How was the man dressed who took part in your memory act
that you think might have been Oswald?
Mr. CROWE. I have no idea as to how he was dressed.
Mr. HUBERT. Your statements concerning the possibility it was Oswald
therefore was based entirely on the facial----
Mr. CROWE. The face alone.
Mr. HUBERT. Of course, you never saw Oswald in person, that is to say
unless it was Oswald in the club?
Mr. CROWE. Yes; I never met him.
Mr. HUBERT. Your identification of the man in the club and the
possibility he was Oswald is based, therefore, upon pictures which
appeared in the paper and which the police exhibited to you, or the
FBI, is that correct?
Mr. CROWE. Right.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you have any recollection now or have you ever had
any recollection at any time of the position of the person who might
have been Oswald in your memory act relative to other people. Do you
understand what I mean? You know he had to be in the first row. Have
you any recollection or have you ever had any, as to whether he was
center, the left, or the right or what?
