Dr. HUNT. Yes; if there is an emergency it goes straight up---they usually use that one.

Mr. Specter.

You say you went back to President Kennedy's room ?
Dr. HUNT. Yes.

Mr. Specter.

And what did you observe there at that time?

Dr. HUNT. At that time I did notice, and possibly this was there earlier, I noticed that they had gotten more monitoring equipment in and connected the electronic equipment for monitoring the electrocardiogram.

Mr. Specter.

At what time did you return to President Kennedy's room?
Dr. HUNT. I don't know--it would probably have been maybe 3 or 4 or 5 minutes from the time I stepped out, because I went across the hall--I didn't know the Governor was there, and someone told me and I went in and just took a brief look at him to sort of size up his condition, and stepped out and sent for my equipment and went back in and stayed until they brought my equipment. It would have been a little longer than 4 or 5 minutes because they had to bring the equipment down the elevator and it had arrived and been there a few minutes---3 or 4 minutes before we were ready to take him upstairs.
Mr. SPECTER. And what was going on in the President's room when you returned there?
Dr. HUNT. Well, there were still a goodly number of people, oh, at least 10 people, possibly there were more--I'm not real sure, but there were still--at that time there were, I know, at least three anesthesiologists in there--Dr. Jenkins, Dr. Akin, and Dr. Giesecke, and I believe Dr. Baxter was in there and Dr. Perry was still there.

Mr. Specter.

Were they still working on the President at that time ?
Dr. HUNT. Yes, sir; I don't know what they were doing.

Mr. Specter.

How long did you stay on that occasion?

Dr. HUNT. Just, oh, a minute just long enough to catch Dr. Giesecke's eye and let him know I was there and going out.

Mr. Specter.

And did you ever return to the President's room?
Dr. HUNT. No; I don't believe I did--no; I'm sure I didn't, because I came on upstairs with Governor Connally.
Mr. SPECTER. And did you participate then with Governor Connally's operation?
Dr. HUNT. I helped Dr. Giesecke during the induction of anesthesia.
Mr. SPECTER. Have you talked to any representative of the Federal Government prior to today?
Dr. HUNT. No; I haven't.
Mr. SPECTER. Did you make any written report of your participation in the care of Governor Connally and President Kennedy ?
Dr. HUNT. Not directly. Dr. Giesecke called me one day and said that, I think it was the A.M.A. was here and just wanted to verify my movements for the day, which I told him and he in turn told them that--I did not appear before them.

Mr. Specter.

Did you make any written reports yourself?
Dr. HUNT. No.

Mr. Specter.

Do you have any notes of any sort concerning your participation?
Dr. HUNT. None whatsoever.

Mr. SPECTER. Prior to the time the court reporter started to take down the transcript of my questions and your answers, did you and I have a brief discussion about the purpose of this deposition?
Dr. HUNT. Yes.

Mr. Specter.

And the questions I would ask you ?
Dr. HUNT. Yes.

Mr. Specter.

And is the information which you have provided on the record the same as you told me before the written deposition started?
Dr. HUNT. Elaborated somewhat.

Mr. Specter.

Do you have anything to add which you think might be of aid to the Commission in its investigation?
Dr. HUNT. No, sir; I don't.

Mr. Specter.

Thank you very much for appearing, Dr. Hunt.
Dr. HUNT. Thank you.
