Representative Ford.

How far was this last destination to the point of 10th and Patton?

Mr. Scoggins.

It was less than a mile, about a half mile or maybe--well, let's see, it was closer to a mile, I would say.

Representative Ford.

Was there any particular reason why you went to the corner of 10th and Patton?

Mr. Scoggins.

Yes. I belong to that club there, and I was going around there to get me a coca cola that I could have gotten anywhere else, but I know a lot of the guys.

Representative Ford.

What is the club called?

Mr. Scoggins.

It is a gentleman's club, a domino parlor where we play dominos.

Representative Ford.

It is at what address?

Mr. Scoggins.

123 or 125 South Patton.

Mr. Belin.

About where is it in relation to East 10th and Patton, how far away, a block, two blocks?

Mr. Scoggins.

It is not a block. It is just about, I would say, just--if it was measured it would be a little over a half block from where I was parked at to the place, you see.

Mr. Belin.

I wonder, perhaps, if we can see it on any of these pictures, Mr. Scoggins. Do you see it in this picture, Exhibit 530?

Mr. Scoggins.

Yes; I can see the building.

Mr. Belin.

Let's see the building here.

Mr. Scoggins.

That is it up there.

Mr. Belin.

I wonder if we can't, perhaps, put on Exhibit 530 an arrow which points to this building, and we will put "G" for the gentleman's club; is that correct? Is that the building to which you are referring?

Mr. Scoggins.

Yes.

Mr. Belin.

Mr. Scoggins, we have another picture that we would like to have you identify, Commission Exhibit 534. This is a picture in which the camera appears to be heading in what direction?

Mr. Scoggins.

It would be heading east--I mean west on 10th Street.

Mr. Belin.

That picture was taken the other day at the time you drove your cab back to that scene, is that correct?

Mr. Scoggins.

I would think it was; yes.

Mr. Belin.

Does this appear to be the position your cab was in at the time of the shooting of Officer Tippit?

Mr. Scoggins.

Yes.

Mr. Belin.

All right. At this time we offer and introduce into evidence all exhibits up through 534, except we do not have a 533 because we renumbered the original Exhibit 533, so we do not have a 533.
Do you have anything more, Congressman Ford?

Representative Ford.

Those exhibits will be admitted.
(Items identified as Commission Exhibits through No. 534, with the exception of Exhibit No. 533, were admitted in evidence.)

Mr. Dulles.

Mr. Scoggins, you have referred, I believe, to a conversation you had with Mr. Whaley, I think his name is, and I would like to have you just recount what you recall of what Mr. Whaley said to you, and where he said it, and at what time.

Mr. Scoggins.

Well now, this conversation we are talking about, while we were down there waiting.

Mr. Dulles.

Down where, down at the police station?

Mr. Scoggins.

No; down at the cab office--it is a cab office at 610 South Akard Street, you know.

Mr. Dulles.

A cab stand?

Mr. Scoggins.

Yes. We call it our main office.

Mr. Dulles.

And Mr. Whaley's cab belonged to the same company as your cab?
SCOGGINS. Yes, sir. Only he drives out of downtown, which office is 610 South Akard Street, that is the number. They have a building there, a large building, with all the dispatching offices and everything, and mine, of course,
