(Testimony of William Kirk Stuckey)

Mr. Stuckey.
with him, and he was only one man, and the fact that he kept his composure with this type of environment indicates discipline.
Mr. Jenner.
That is right. Now, I show you a Pizzo Exhibit No. 453-A. Do you see Mr. Oswald shown on that exhibit?
Mr. Stuckey.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Is there a mark or something over his head?
Mr. Stuckey.
Yes; there is a green cross of some sort.
Mr. Jenner.
All right. There is a man to his left, there is an arrow, a vertical arrow, over that man's head. .Do you recognize that person?
Mr. Stuckey.
Mr. Jenner.
Far to the left, the most extreme left, of the picture is another man with dark glasses on. He has a green vertical stripe over his head. Do you recognize him?
Mr. Stuckey.
No.
Mr. Jenner.
Now, to the left of the man with the vertical arrow above his head is a tail rather husky young fellow whose back is turned. Do you, by any chance, recognize him?
Mr. Stuckey.
This one?
Mr. Jenner.
Yes.
Mr. Stuckey.
No.
Mr. Jenner.
I will ask you the general question do you recognize anybody depicted on Pizzo Exhibit No. 453-A other than Oswald?
Mr. Stuckey.
Oswald is the only person I recognize in that picture.
Mr. Jenner.
I show you Pizzo Exhibit No. 453-B. Do you recognize Oswald on that picture?
Mr. Stuckey.
Yes; he has the green mark above his head.
Mr. Jenner.
That is the vertical mark and it is the only mark on that photograph, is it not?
Mr. Stuckey.
That is correct.
Mr. Jenner.
Directing your attention to the group of men on that photograph in which Oswald is a part although his back is to the group, do you recognize any of those men shown on that photograph?
Mr. Stuckey.
No; I recognize nobody.
Mr. Jenner.
And to the right side of the girl there are some ladies. Do you recognize any of them?
Mr. Stuckey.
I was just looking over that. One of them looks vaguely familiar, but--no; I would have to say. No; I don't know the women.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you recognize the vicinity or place shown?
Mr. Stuckey.
Yes; that is the front of the International Trade Mart Building on Common and Camp Streets in New Orleans.
Mr. Jenner.
If I may have that tape so I can put an exhibit number on it--
Mr. Stuckey.
Do you want to take it now rather than go through all the letter-writing proceedings?
Mr. Jenner.
I am not going to take it, but I am going to mark it and give it back to you. I don't want to have possession of it. I just want to look to see--
Mr. Stuckey.
Would it be easier for the Commission if it were made into a record rather than a tape? I have a record that I have made, my own personal record.
Mr. Jenner.
I will inquire about that. It possibly might be better. You mean a platter, a disc?
Mr. Stuckey.
A platter, a disc.
Mr. Jenner.
I suppose a tape is easier to preserve. A hundred years from now this tape would be just as true as it is today, that is assuming it is kept under good conditions, whereas a platter might deteriorate.
Mr. Stuckey.
That is true.
Mr. Jenner.
So I think we had better have the tape.
Mr. Stuckey.
The disc would start decomposing after about the 25th time you played them, and also they get scratched and such, But one thing is you can't erase a record and you can erase a tape. That is the kind of nightmares you have with a tape, I was afraid to have a copy made of that thing for a
