Mr. Ball.

Didn't you also ask him what he had done when he went home, what, when he went to 1026 North Beckley?

Mr. Fritz.

When he went to Beckley?

Mr. Ball.

What he did.

Mr. Fritz.

What he did when he went on North Beckley?

Mr. Ball.

After the cab ride, what he had done.

Mr. Fritz.

This time he told me a different story about changing the clothing. He told me this time that he had changed his trousers and shirt and I asked him what he did with his dirty clothes and he said, I believe he said, he put them, the dirty clothes, I believe he said he put a shirt in a drawer.

Mr. Ball.

And you asked him again, didn't you, what he was doing at the time the President was shot?

Mr. Fritz.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball.

What did he say?

Mr. Fritz.

Well, he told me about the same story about this lunch.

Mr. Ball.

He mentioned who he was having lunch with, did he not?

Mr. Fritz.

Yes, sir; he told me he was having lunch when the President was shot.

Mr. Ball.

With whom?

Mr. Fritz.

With someone called Junior, someone he worked with down there, but he didn't remember the other boy's name.

Mr. Ball.

Did he tell you what he was eating?

Mr. Fritz.

He told me, I believe, that he had, I am doing this from memory, a cheese sandwich, and he also mentioned he had some fruit, I had forgotten about the fruit until I looked at this report.

Mr. Ball.

Did he say that was in the package he had brought from home?

Mr. Fritz.

Yes, sir; there was one reason I asked him about what was in the package, we had had a story that had been circulated around the meantime about some chicken bones, I am sure you heard of that, and I wanted to find for sure what he did have in his lunch and he told me about having--he told me they did not have any chicken out there and I also talked with the Paines and they told me they didn't have any chicken in the icebox, they did have some cheese.

Mr. Ball.

But he said he had had lunch with Junior?

Mr. Fritz.

Yes, sir; and with someone else.

Mr. Ball.

Did you find out that there was an employee named Junior, a man that was nicknamed Junior at the Texas School Book Depository?

Mr. Fritz.

Probably we have it here, some of the officers probably did, we had all these people checked out. I didn't do it myself probably.

Mr. Ball.

That same morning, you asked him also about his affiliations, didn't you ask him if he belonged to the Communist Party?

Mr. Fritz.

Yes, sir; I asked him if he belonged to the Communist Party.

Mr. Ball.

What did he say?

Mr. Fritz.

He said he did not. He said be never had a card. He told me again that he did belong to the Fair Play for Cuba organization, that he was in favor of the Castro revolution and I don't remember what else he might have told me.

Mr. Ball.

What about the pistol that he had on him when he was arrested, did you question him about that this morning?

Mr. Fritz.

That morning?

Mr. Ball.

Your notes show that you did.

Mr. Fritz.

Yes, sir; I talked to him about the pistol and asked him where he got it.

Mr. Ball.

What did he say?

Mr. Fritz.

He told me he had got it about 6 or 7 months before in Fort Worth but he wouldn't tell me where he got it. When I asked him a little further about that he told me he didn't want to talk any further about the pistol.

Mr. Ball.

Did the FBI, did any FBI agent question him that morning?

Mr. Fritz.

Yes, sir; Mr. Bookhout asked a few questions along, I don't remember Just exactly what they asked, but he asked him a few questions.

Mr. Ball.

Was there any further questioning about an attorney, whether or not he wanted a lawyer and who he wanted?
