Mr. Hubert.

Did he comment or associate in any way the question of the Jewish race or faith in the assassination?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Did he indicate in any way to you that he thought that because of the Weissman ad or for any other reason the people of the Jewish race and faith might be blamed for the assassination, directly or indirectly ?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

There was no conversation about Judaism or Jews at all?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Were you present when he took out the twistboard and demonstrated it?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Did he have it with him when you saw him ?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir; I don't believe he did. All he had 'was the newspaper.

Mr. Hubert.

In any case, when you left, he was still there?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

And you don't know how long he stayed?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

How did you part with him, what was the general point of departure, how did you leave things with him ?

Mr. Pryor.

"I'v got to get home, and I'll see you around, Jack" or something to that effect.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you see him again thereafter?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir; until the time that I testified at his trial, outside of seeing him on television.

Mr. Hubert.

You didn't have any contact with him by telephone after then?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

I think at one time you and he had had a little fisticuffs, hadn't you?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

I suppose any feelings about that had long since passed away?

Mr. Pryor.

About 5 minutes after we had our misunderstanding, it was all In fact, there was a grocery store down on the corner, and not that I am or have in the past ever been a fighter or anything, but we had had our set-to and I blacked his eye, and so then he went over there and there was a washstand in the back of the Spur there, and he was washing his face and I walked over to him and told him, I said, "Jack, I'm sorry I'm fighting in your place here and working for you like this, but don't never call me a name like that because I just don't appreciate it", and so he turned around and pop! He hit me fight in the eye, you see, and boy! The sparks just flew

Mr. Hubert.

And you got to fighting again ?

Mr. Pryor.

No; that was all, and so both of us had a big ole' shiner, and of course, the guys in the band were up on the bandstand and were looking through the curtain. They heard the commotion and they were just rolling.

Mr. Hubert.

And you were friendly thereafter ?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

That was some 13 or 14 years ago, was it?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes; he goes down and buys two great big steaks and both of us are walking around with these steaks on our eyes. I mean--that's the type of person, though, that Jack was.

Mr. Hubert.

He bought a steak for his own eye that you had given him and one for your eye that he had given you?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes; and that is the emotional type of person that Jack--and there has been numerous instances where I have seen him get real excited over some incidental little thing and 2 minutes after whatever created the excitement, he was back running around.

Mr. Hubert.

Tell us his attitude toward the girls in his club? Did he take any personal interest in them or was it strictly professional ?

Mr. Pryor.

Well, now, on his personal life I couldn't tell you. I mean--I never associated with him to that extent, but I do know that he treated all of the girls that worked for him, as far as I knew, with fairness and also went out of his way to help them.
