Mr. Clark.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Now, at the 6:30 showup, how did you happen to take part in that?
Mr. Clark.
I believe some detective, I don't recall who, came up from homicide and told us that there would probably be another showup after the first one, to stick around in the event that there was that they wanted us again.
Mr. Ball.
Did you still stick around?
Mr. Clark.
We went back to our office.
Mr. Ball.
To your office? Did you get a call?
Mr. Clark.
Yes, sir; they called us back down there.
Mr. Ball.
Who called you?
Mr. Clark.
I don't recall who called us.
Mr. Ball.
Where did you go when you got the call?
Mr. Clark.
Back up to the third floor, homicide office up there.
Mr. Ball.
Fritz' office?
Mr. Clark.
Yes.
Mr. Ball.
What had you done with the little red vest that you had on in the first showup?
Mr. Clark.
I had left--after the showup we went back upstairs to the homicide, and I took it off and left it there.
Mr. Ball.
What did you do for the second showup? How did you dress?
Mr. Clark.
The same red vest.
Mr. Ball.
