On Thursday, November 14, 1963, I was employed at the
New Port Motel as a clerk and PBX operator. My boss, MR. PETER
GUARISCO, who owns the motel had left for a Rotary Club meeting
at about 11:45 A.M. The meeting was at the Hub Club and was to
start at 12:00 o'clock.
At around 12:40 JACK RUBY came into the motel and asked
for PETE GUARISCO. I told him where PETE had gone and we started
to. talk. He told me of his business in Dallas and how it was
nice to get away from it once in a while and how he had even gone
to Mexico for a few days. He did not tell me when or where he
had been in Mexico, but that he had already gone there. He
introduced himself as JACK RUBY from Dallas and that he knew
PETE GUARISCO very well and that he wanted to see him. He said
that he was on his way to Dallas. He was talking to me alone,
and he was by himself at that point - he came in alone. I then
noticed this man sitting at a table about 15 feet from me fumbling
with the phone and causing the lights to light up on the switch-
board. The man had come in right after RUBY (a few seconds later)
I then asked him if I could help him, and he said that he was
.
just waiting for someone. He continued fumbling with the phone,
but I didn't say anything to him as he appeared very nervous and
