Mr. Pryor.

No; my own personal opinion is that Jack was correcting Mr. Wade through what he had read or heard.

Mr. Hubert.

In other words, Mr. Wade had used the wrong label for the organization that Wade was talking about and that Jack corrected him and said that that organization is called another thing?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes, sir; and that was as far as I could determine, that's the only thing that Jack meant, which was common knowledge then through the news media.

Mr. Hubert.

Was there anything that he said to you on that night or at any-time for that matter, that indicated that he knew of Oswald's political feelings and thoughts?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir; outside of possibly what he had learned through the police or through other news media, you know.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you gather from his remark that it was Ruby's opinion that Oswald was a pro-Castro individual rather than either a neutral or an anti-Castro individual ?

Mr. Pryor.

Well, Just from the comment that he had made in relation to the correction of Mr. Wade, that would be the only time.

Mr. Hubert.

I think you said that Mr. Wade had simply used the wrong label for the pro-Castro group?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

And he was simply correcting him as to labels, is that correct?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Were there any telephone calls made that night between Ruby and the composing room or you, that you know of?

Mr. Hubert.

No, sir; not that I know of.

Mr. Hubert.

Your only contact with him was in the 15 minutes you have talked about?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

You and he were alone at that time during that 15 minutes?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir; there were other people in the chapel, which is at the front of the composing room where you sign your ticket and you sign out.

Mr. Hubert.

Who were some of the people?

Mr. Pryor.

Let me see---I think there was a fellow by the name of Griffin. I believe he was the one that walked out with me, and he'll shoot me for this, but he had walked up---we had washed up in the back and had come up and had made out my ticket and picked up my lunch bucket and was ready to leave when Jack came in off of the elevator and Mr. Griffin and I stopped and so then he went on down, and I couldn't recall whether he even spoke to Jack. Possibly he didn't even know Jack Ruby.

Mr. Hubert.

Did you introduce him ?

Mr. Pryor.

Not that I recall.

Mr. Hubert.

What is Mr. Griffin's name first name?

Mr. Pryor.

I don't know--just Griffin is all I know him by.

Mr. Hubert.

Does he still work there?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hubert.

Why did you say he'll hate you for this?

Mr. Pryor.

Because you'll probably contact him and it's

Mr. Hubert.

Well, you tell us that he did not speak to Ruby at all, is that correct?

Mr. Pryor.

That--I couldn't tell you, sir. The man to my knowledge doesn't know Jack or didn't know Jack.

Mr. Hubert.

Well, in any case, as you met Jack with this man Griffin, you

stayed behind and talked to Jack for about 15 minutes and Griffin went on?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes.

Mr. Hubert.

Did Griffin wait for you downstairs?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir; he went on.

Mr. Hubert.

Well, in any case, the contact between Ruby and Griffin must have been a matter of seconds, is that correct?

Mr. Pryor.

Yes, sir--if there was---which I don't recall at all.

Mr. Hubert.

Was there any indication that they knew each other?

Mr. Pryor.

No, sir.
