(Testimony of Harry N. Olsen)

Mr. Olsen.
At her house.
Mr. Specter.
And by "her" you mean Kay?
Mr. Olsen.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Specter.
And what did you do after breakfast ? First, did you go to Kay's house right after you awakened?
Mr. Olsen.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Specter.
Then how long did you stay at Kay's house?
Mr. Olsen.
I think we were there when Ruby shot Oswald.
Mr. Specter.
How did you learn that Ruby had shot Oswald?
Mr. Olsen.
It was either the radio or the television.
Mr. Specter.
Were you watching TV at the time that it happened?
Mr. Olsen.
I believe so. If not, we turned it on right after we had heard it.
Mr. Specter.
Was anyone else present in Kay's house except you and Kay?
Mr. Olsen.
Her children.
Mr. Specter.
What are the names of her children?
Mr. Olsen.
Susan and Sheri.
Mr. Specter.
How old is Susan?
Mr. Olsen.
Nine.
Mr. Specter.
How old is Sheri?
Mr. Olsen.
Seven.
Mr. SPECTER, Was anyone else present besides you and Kay and Susan and Sheri?
Mr. Olsen.
No, sir; they could have been outside playing.
Mr. Specter.
How long did you stay at Kay's house that day?
Mr. Olsen.
Oh, several hours, I guess.
Mr. Specter.
Did you see anybody else before you left Kay's house that day, on that Sunday?
Mr. Olsen.
Not that I recall. I could have seen somebody who lives there.
Mr. Specter.
Such as who?
Mr. Olsen.
Oh, the landlord.
Mr. Specter.
Who is he?
Mr. Olsen.
I don't remember his name.
Mr. Specter.
Did you talk to anybody by telephone that day?
Mr. Olsen.
I don't recall if I called the police department or not, whether they wanted me to come down and work.
Mr. Specter.
Were you on duty that day?
Mr. Olsen.
No, sir.
Mr. Specter.
How was it that you were off for 3 days in a row?
Mr. Olsen.
I had a holiday.
Mr. Specter.
What do you mean by "a holiday"?
Mr. Olsen.
Well, like Christmas or Thanksgiving, or something like that.
Mr. Specter.
You mean you had a compensatory day coming for having worked a holiday?
Mr. Olsen.
Yes, sir.
Mr. SPECTER, Did you hear any announcement that day that Oswald was about to be moved?
Mr. Olsen.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Specter.
How did you happen to hear that?
Mr. Olsen.
On television, I believe.
Mr. Specter.
And specifically, what was that announcement?
Mr. Olsen.
That he was being moved from the, city jail to the county jail.
Mr. Specter.
Did you talk to anybody about that?
Mr. Olsen.
No, sir.
Mr. Specter.
Did you tell Ruby about that?
Mr. Olsen.
No, sir.
Mr. Specter.
Did you talk to Ruby that Sunday?
Mr. Olsen.
No, sir
Mr. Specter.
Have you ever talked to Ruby at any time after that conversation you had with him in the garage on late Friday night or early Saturday morning?
Mr. Olsen.
No, sir.
Mr. Specter.
What time did you leave Kay's house on Sunday, November 24, to the best of your ability to recollect?
