(Testimony of Curtis Laverne Crafard Resumed)

Mr. Crafard.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
Had a salary been agreed upon prior to that time?
Mr. Crafard.
I don't recall that, sir.
Mr. Hubert.
If it had it would have been paid wouldn't it?
Mr. Crafard.
Yes; it would have been.
Mr. Hubert.
Doesn't that pinpoint then this series of days as being the week during which President Kennedy was killed on a Friday.
Mr. Crafard.
It seems to; yes.
Mr. Griffin.
After the entry "Saturday" there is a blank line and then there is an entry "call home as soon as possible." How did that come to be written?
Mr. Crafard.
I don't remember, sir. It could have been somebody called in to have one of the girls call home or something like this. A couple of the girls had been married and had Children.
Mr. Griffin.
Was that a note left for Jack Ruby or for yourself?
Mr. Crafard.
I don't believe it was for Jack Ruby. I don't remember.
Mr. Griffin.
Did you carry this notebook on your person at all times?
Mr. Crafard.
When I was in the club it was in my pocket all the time.
Mr. Griffin.
And when you were not in the club?
Mr. Crafard.
Most of the time it would be in my pocket, anyway.
Mr. Griffin.
Now there is a telephone number written after the previous entry, and it is RI 1-4643. Do you remember that entry?
Mr. Crafard.
No, sir; I don't remember it.
Mr. Griffin.
That concludes page 6.
Now let me turn over page 6 to the back, and there is something written on there, Schroll. Is that in your handwriting?
Mr. Crafard.
Yes.
Mr. Griffin.
And then there is the name Dick Gifford, KTVT, Fort Worth, TA 3-7110. Is that in your handwriting?
Mr. Crafard.
Yes.
Mr. Griffin.
Now do you remember how this Schroll name happened to be written down?
Mr. Crafard.
No, sir; I don't.
Mr. Griffin.
Or who that refers to?
Mr. Crafard.
No, sir.
Mr. Griffin.
How about Dick Gifford?
Mr. Crafard.
He was I believe an MC over at the KTVT.
Mr. Griffin.
Now do you remember how that entry happened to be put in there?
Nr. CRAFARD. It was something in connection with the twist board setup. called him in connection with--Jack give me the number to call and ask for this Dick Gifford.
Mr. Griffin.
Then what did you say to Dick Gifford?
Mr. Crafard.
I believe it was something on the price of advertisement on TV, for a TV advertisement or something of that sort.
Mr. Griffin.
And what makes you think that it was the price of a TV ad?
Mr. Crafard.
Mostly this next line hasn't got anything on it. It has been erased. I believe I erased it, 150 for i minute, and I recall this 150 for 1 minute was in connection with a TV advertisement.
I don't remember whether I made the call or whether Jack made the call or what.
Mr. Griffin.
After the line 150 for I minute, which is partially erased, there is an entry "Names of record shops where it can be bought."
Mr. Crafard.
Yes.
Mr. Griffin.
What does that refer to?
Mr. Crafard.
I am not sure of what it does refer to, sir. Probably a record of some kind that Jack was wanting to get ahold of.
Mr. Griffin.
Is that in your handwriting?
Mr. Crafard.
Yes.
Mr. Griffin.
Do you recall any records that Jack was interested in buying?
Mr. Crafard.
He was buying records and bought a lot of records he gave away as prizes in the club.
