(Testimony of William D. , Jr. Crowe)

Mr. Hubert.
Well, you mentioned that you did speak to Armstrong. When did you do so?
Mr. Crowe.
Monday; I believe Monday evening he called me on the phone and told me to come to work.
Mr. Hubert.
Come to work on Monday evening?
Mr. Crowe.
I didn't figure I would go in until Tuesday, I figured they would be out for a while. I think there was something in the Saturday paper that Jack Ruby had put, stated immediately that the club would be closed for 3 days.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you see that yourself?
Mr. Crowe.
Yes; I believe I did.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you know Eva Grant?
Mr. Crowe.
The name sounds familiar.
Mr. Hubert.
Well--
Mr. Crowe.
Isn't that Jack Ruby's sister?
Mr. Hubert.
Yes; it is. Do you know her?
Mr. Crowe.
Yes; in a way. I met her.
Mr. Hubert.
Have you ever been to the Vegas Club?
Mr. Crowe.
Vegas Club; yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Have you been there?
Mr. Crowe.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you ever play there?
Mr. Crowe.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
As an artist?
Mr. Crowe.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you go there during the last engagement we have been talking about which commenced on November 11?
Mr. Crowe.
Yes, yes; I did. About the week before, I guess.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you go there on more than one occasion or just once?
Mr. Crowe.
Maybe twice.
Mr. Hubert.
Who did you go there with?
Mr. Crowe.
Jack and a couple of girls from the club.
Mr. Hubert.
Do you remember the girls' names?
Mr. Crowe.
Little Lynn and there was another one, it is a redhead. Very good dancer, too. There was a joke about her name, something to do with Christmas.
Mr. Hubert.
That would be one occasion. Do you remember who you went with on the other?
Mr. Crowe.
Well, I always went with Jack but I don't know whether there was anybody else. there probably was, but I don't recall who was along the second time.
Mr. Hubert.
Do you remember when you first made any announcement concoring the possibility, at least, that Oswald was in the Carousel?
Mr. Crowe.
Sunday afternoon.
Mr. Hubert.
Who did you make the observation to and how did it come about?
Mr. Crowe.
To a television reporter, I guess it was.
Mr. Hubert.
Do you know his name?
Mr. Crowe.
A newspaperman.
Mr. Hubert.
Do you know the names of these people?
Mr. Crowe.
No.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you approach them or did they approach you?
Mr. Crowe.
Both. I had just parked my car at the garage right aside of the club because I went down there to see about my equipment which was in the club and I had known, from things I had heard, Jack had done what he did. I was concerned about my equipment, you know, whether I would get it out.
Mr. Hubert.
What time was it that you went to the club?
Mr. Crowe.
Around noon, I guess.
Mr. Hubert.
Do you think it would be about a half hour after Oswald was shot?
Mr. Crowe.
About a half hour after Oswald was shot.
Mr. Hubert.
How did you hear that Oswald was shot?
Mr. Crowe.
I was in the office of the motel and it was on television.
Mr. Hubert.
I see. Then you became concerned about your equipment and you went immediately down?
