(Testimony of Malcolm Howard , Jr. Price)
Mr. Liebeler.
And that picture has been marked "Pizzo Exhibit No. 453-A." I'll show you a picture that has been marked as "Pizzo Exhibit No. 453-C , and ask you if you recognize that as the man you saw on the rifle-range?
Mr. Price.
Yes.
Mr. Liebeler.
Do you have any questions about it at all?
Mr. Price.
About that picture?
Mr. Liebeler.
Whether that's the fellow?
Mr. Price.
Other than the scar or cut on his head, because he didn't have a cut on his head at the time.
Mr. Liebeler.
When did you first become aware of the fact that this fellow you saw was Lee Oswald, did you ever know his name?
Mr. Price.
No; I never knew his name.
Mr. Liebeler.
When did you first become aware of the fact it was Oswald---when did you first think that it was Oswald?
Mr. Price.
When I saw him on television when they were transferring him from the Dallas jail.
Mr. Liebeler.
And did you recognize him right away as the fellow you had seen at the rifle range?
Mr. Price.
Yes; and I contacted the FBI the next day. I debated on it all night whether I should call them or get mixed up with it or not.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did you mention it to anyone else, when you saw him on television?
Mr. Price.
Yes; my family.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did you talk about it with anyone else before you told the FBI?
Mr. Price.
No.
Mr. Liebeler.
Whom did you talk with at the FBI, do you remember?
Mr. Price.
Charlie Brown.
Mr. Liebeler.
Let's see if we can establish the date of the last time that you saw this man at the rifle range. Do you recall that the President was assassinated on Friday, November 22? Can you tell us approximately how long prior to the assassination this time was that you saw the man?
Mr. Price.
The last time I saw him was a week before Thanksgiving; Sunday before.
Mr. Liebeler.
The Sunday before Thanksgiving--that's the last time you saw him at the rifle range?
Mr. Price.
That's the last time that I was down at the rifle range the last time I went there until after, oh, a month or so after the assassination.
Mr. Liebeler.
You mean it was the Sunday immediately preceding Thanksgiving?
Mr. Price.
That's right; i was down there for the turkey shoot we had.
Mr. Liebeler.
You saw him at the rifle range that day?
Mr. Price.
Yes.
Mr. Liebeler.
Well, the last Sunday before Thanksgiving was after assassination.
Mr. Price.
It was after?
Mr. Liebeler.
Yes; and you saw this man at the rifle range, you saw Oswald at the rifle range after the assassination?
Mr. Price.
I believe I did, because that was the last time that I went down there.
Mr. Liebeler.
And the time you saw him the last time and looked through the scope was the last time you were down at the rifle range?
Mr. Price.
Yes; that was the last day I was down there.
Mr. LIEBELER, What makes you say it was the Sunday preceding Thanksgiving, are you sure about that?
Mr. Price.
Well, I'm not exactly positive but it was getting close to Thanksgiving because I was trying to get a turkey.
Mr. Liebeler.
Do you remember whether you saw him after the assassination?
Mr. Price.
No.
Mr. Liebeler.
You are not sure one way or the other?
Mr. Price.
I know I haven't seen him after the assassination, but it was before this assassination--I was down there the last time and I was thinking it
