didn't see him when he came in. He must have sneaked in and run on upstairs before I saw him."

Mr. Ball.

Later on, did somebody point out a man in the theatre to you?

Mr. Burroughs.

No----I got information that a man----the police were cruising up and down Jefferson hunting for Oswald, and he ran to a shoestore and then came out and came on up to the Texas, and the man came in and told me that a man fitting that description came in the show and he wanted me to help him find him, and we went and checked the exit doors, he was up in the balcony, I imagine, and then we went back out and the police caught him downstairs.

Mr. Ball.

You went to check the exit doors?
Mr. BURROUGHS, Yes.

Mr. Ball.

With the shoe salesman?

Mr. Burroughs.

Yes.

Mr. Ball.

And were the police out at the exit doors?

Mr. Burroughs.

They came on----somehow they came in----one came in through the back and the rest of them came in through the front.

Mr. Ball.

Did you see them come in through the back when you were back there?

Mr. Burroughs.

I saw one of them.

Mr. Ball.

The exit doors you are talking about were in the back or in the front?

Mr. Burroughs.

They are at the back---they have one main one going out to the alley and they have one down here by the stage going out to the parking lot, and the other two are upstairs.

Mr. Ball.

Did you see any struggle or fight between this man and any police officer?

Mr. Burroughs.

No; not exactly, because I just had one door open and that was the middle door, and I couldn't see them----that was the main thing.

Mr. Ball.

Where were you?

Mr. Burroughs.

I was back behind the concession.

Mr. Ball.

How do you get from the exit door in the rear of the theatre to behind the concession?

Mr. Burroughs.

Well, the concession is right here [indicating] and the doors are right here, and the theatre is inside, and exit door No. I is straight down this way and another one is straight down this way.

Mr. Ball.

Tell me what you did after you went to the exit door with the shoe salesman; what did you do?

Mr. Burroughs.

Well, he went down to this door and I stayed at this door.

Mr. Ball.

You mean at the rear of the theatre?

Mr. Burroughs.

Yes----he went down to the rear of the theatre, and I stayed at this door in case he went out one of the exit doors.

Mr. Ball.

You stayed there, did you?

Mr. Burroughs.

I stayed there for about 5 minutes and I came back out to the concession.

Mr. Ball.

Down the main aisle?

Mr. Burroughs.

Yes.

Mr. Ball.

Were there police in there at that time?

Mr. Burroughs.

They were in there checking to see where he was.

Mr. Ball.

Was there any struggle going on when you came back from the exit door to the concession?

Mr. Burroughs.

No.

Mr. Ball.

There was not?

Mr. Burroughs.

No.

Mr. Ball.

Did you hear or see any trouble between this man and the police?

Mr. Burroughs.

Well, I heard a struggle from outside, but I really couldn't tell.

Mr. Ball.

What did you hear?

Mr. Burroughs.

Well, I couldn't hear anything on the inside, but when they brought him out, he was hollering and raising, "I demand my rights," and all that.
