dayskur Dictated 2:45 P.M. on February, 21, 1969 TO: LOUIS IVON, Chief Investigator FROM: DOUGLAS WARD, Investigator RE: LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE CALL RECEIVED FROM LUIS COSTEJO * * * * * * * * At about 2:40 P.M. this date, February 2lst, I received a telephone call through the switchboard from the above-mentioned subject. The subject asked whether or not the rifle used in the assassination of President Kennedy had as yet been intrudiced in the courtroom as evidence. The subject also asked if Perry Russo had testified yet, whether or not Clay Shaw was in the courtroom at this time, and what time Shaw would be leav- ing the courtroom on this date. Detective Ward advised Mr. Costejo he would have to check on the above questions and contact him later if advised to do so. The subject then stated he was in a telephone booth in Los Angeles and would not be there in just a few minutes. During the entire conversation the subject spoke in a manner indicating that he was out of breath. Prior to ending the conversation, the subject again questioned as to what time Clay Shaw would be leaving the courtroom, this date. He was very insistent on learning what time Clay! Shaw would be leaving the Court Building. That was about the extent of the conversation. DOUGLAS WARD
