Mr. Wall.

Yes, sir. Thank you. That was the only time. I have only been out to the Vegas Club maybe twice in the whole time I have been in Dallas but I would see her at the B&B restaurant eating after she had closed her club.

Mr. Specter.

Did you ever know Lee Harvey Oswald?

Mr. Wall.

No, sir.

Mr. Specter.

Did you ever see Lee Harvey Oswald?

Mr. Wall.

Only after he had shot the President.

Mr. Specter.

Do you know whether Jack Ruby ever knew Lee Harvey Oswald?

Mr. Wall.

No, sir; I don't.

Mr. Specter.

Did you ever see Jack Ruby and Lee Harvey Oswald together at any time?

Mr. Wall.

No, sir; not at all.

Mr. Specter.

Do you know whether Jack Ruby knew Officer J. D. Tippit?

Mr. Wall.

No, sir; I don't. He knew most of the policemen on the police force.

Mr. Specter.

Did you ever see Jack Ruby with Officer Tippit?

Mr. Wall.

I don't know what he looks like.

Mr. Specter.

Do you know who Officer Tippit is?

Mr. Wall.

Yes, sir; I do.

Mr. Specter.

He was the officer who was shot and killed the day of the assassination.

Mr. Wall.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Specter.

Do you recall Friday, November 22, 1963?

Mr. Wall.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Specter.

What were your activities on that day to the best of your ability to recollect?

Mr. Wall.

That was very easy to remember. We went down to the Adolphus marquee.

Mr. Specter.

"We" meaning?

Mr. Wall.

Joe Peterson and also with us was Nancy Austin, who is in our show, and Kenny Jerome, who is in our show. We watched President Kennedy drive by and I was listening to it on the radio as he was driving and when he passed us he was going 30 miles an hour whereas he had been going 10 miles an hour so we missed him. With all the excitement and everything we didn't get a good look at him so we went upstairs.

Mr. Specter.

Your view of the motorcade from the Adolphus was from the marquee of the Adolphus Hotel in Dallas?

Mr. Wall.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Specter.

What did you do after the Presidential limousine passed the Adolphus Hotel?

Mr. Wall.

We wanted to get a better look at the President so Joe Peterson and myself decided to go out to the airport because when he was out there, when he first arrived in Dallas, he stayed out there I think 30 minutes longer than he was supposed to, shaking hands with the people. We thought he might do it again. We ran upstairs to change clothes. It was a very cold day. We needed to put on some warm clothes. We went upstairs to change clothes and go out to the airport. We always left our television on because we have a dog and it sort of keeps him calm. When we opened the door into the bedroom they announced over the television that the President had been assassinated. Joe went down to the--as far as I know he went down to the Book Depository to see what it looked like and I stayed in the bedroom and watched the television to find out what was, you know, going on. We stayed there all that night and we departed for Galveston to get away from Dallas the next day, which was Saturday, at around 3 or 4 in the afternoon.

Mr. Specter.

What did you do the balance of Friday night?

Mr. Wall.

We stayed and watched television. I didn't move from the television set.

Mr. Specter.

Where did you have dinner that night?

Mr. Wall.

In the room.

Mr. Specter.

What time did you go to bed on the evening of November 22, if you recall?

Mr. Wall.

As far as I know I didn't go to bed until 5 in the morning.

Mr. Specter.

What did you do all that night?
