(Testimony of Dr. William Kemp Clark)
Dr. CLARK. I don't remember.
Dr. CLARK. Dr. Shaw described Governor Connally's chest wound. He described what was done for him, the operation in some detail. He described the fact that Governor Connally was conscious up until the time he was anesthetized in the operating room. Dr. CLARK. Dr. Shires described the wounds suffered by Oswald and what was done in an attempt to save him. Dr. CLARK. Dr. Gieseke corroborated Dr. Shaw's statements regarding Governor Connally's condition and his remaining conscious until he was anesthetized by Dr. Gieseke. Dr. CLARK. Dr. Baxter described President Kennedy's condition as he saw it, stated that he had assisted in the placing in the chest tubes on President Kennedy, and that he had been present at Oswald's operation. Dr. CLARK. I don't remember--I don't believe he did. Mr. SPECTER. Now, have we covered all the doctors who spoke at that press conference? Dr. CLARK. Except Dr. Jenkins. Dr. CLARK. Dr. Jenkins described being called to attend President Kennedy, how he got there with his anesthesia machine, that he found an endotrachea tube had already been inserted. He hooked up and he described the activities in the emergency room, operating room No. 1, and he described the stopping of the President's heart and the decision to pronounce him dead. He went ahead to describe the operation on Mr. Oswald and the extent of blood loss, etc., which he had sustained. Dr. CLARK. Yes, sir; I was. Dr. CLARK. This was with NBC and was approximately 2 weeks after the assassination. Dr. CLARK. Mr. Landregan. Dr CLARK. Yes, that was also filmed. Dr. CLARK. I spoke alone as a representative of the department and so in the conference. Dr. CLARK. Essentially the same thing as had been stated before. Dr .CLARK. Yes. Dr. CLARK. The week after the assassination. Dr. CLARK. With BBC. Dr. CLARK. Mr. Landregan, again. Dr. CLARK. No. Dr. CLARK. It was simply recorded. Dr. CLARK. Exactly the same thing as I have said at the previous conferences, describing the President's condition, his wound, and what transpired after I arrived.
