Mr. Jenner.

How did she do her hair, was it in braids?

Mr. Oswald.

No, sir. I believe it was just hanging down long.

Mr. Jenner.

When you say long, how long?

Mr. Oswald.

Shoulder height.

Mr. Jenner.

Mr. Oswald, would you accommodate us-not to do it now, but at noontime, if you have the time, to read through your diary to the court reporter, because some of the writing I have difficulty interpreting. The Commission would appreciate it if you would interpret your own writing on the exhibit.

Mr. Oswald.

All right, sir. I understand that you want me to read the entire diary, is that correct?

Mr. Jenner.

Yes, to the court reporter-as part of the record, Mr. Chairman.

Mr. Dulles.

You may proceed.

Mr. Jenner.

What kind of a student were you, Mr. Oswald?

Mr. Oswald.

I believe my average in school was--if I may, sir, ask you-are you talking about my over-all average?

Mr. Jenner.

Yes, sir, I seek only the over-all.

Mr. Oswald.

I would say a C or C-plus, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

Are you acquainted with the scholarship in that respect of your brother John?

Mr. Oswald.

No, sir; I am not. I could, if you wish me to, make an opinion on what I think it would be.

Mr. Jenner.

This opinion being based upon your attending school with him, as you testified yesterday?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir; that is correct.

Mr. Jenner.

And discussions with him back and forth between the both of you as to how you were getting along?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

Common interest in your progress scholarshipwise?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

What is your present recollection as to his scholarship?

Mr. Oswald.

That would be a C-plus or a B.

Mr. Jenner.

A touch higher than yours?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you have an opportunity during your lifetime to form a like opinion as to the scholarship of your brother Lee?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir; I have.

Mr. Jenner.

And what was his scholarship?

Mr. Oswald.

I would say a C to a C-plus, in the same category that I place myself.

Mr. Jenner.

Mr. Oswald and Mr. McKenzie, Mr. Chairman, have furnished us with the originals of a series of letters and postcards which Mr. Oswald, the witness, received from his brother Lee Harvey Oswald. We have prepared photostatic copies on a Xerox machine of each of those letters, and each envelope relating to that letter. And in the case of postcards the front and reverse side of postcards.
We were further accommodated by-yesterday afternoon following the close of the session-by sitting down with Mr. Oswald and in his presence comparing the photostatic copy of each document with the original, the original being in the possession of Mr. Oswald. And I am marking each of those documents with an exhibit number.

Mr. Dulles.

Could you give us, Mr. Jenner, the first and last dates, so we have an idea of the period covered? I have a general idea, of course.

Mr. Jenner.

Yes. Two of these items are not in exact sequence, but----

Mr. Dulles.

Two have been introduced already, have they not?

Mr. Mckenzie.

Yes, I think you are right, Mr. Dulles.

Mr. Jenner.

That is correct. A letter of November 8, 1950, introduced in evidence yesterday. I don't recall what the second one was, but at least----

Mr. Dulles.

Were they marked at that time as exhibits?
