Mr. LIEBELER. Did you have a lunch break----

Mr. LE BLANC. Yes.

Mr. LIEBELER. During the day, you had a lunch break?

Mr. LE BLANC. We had 11 and 11:30. Now at that time I don't know

whether we just had the 11:30 or we had two breaks--I can't recall--but

I think it was two breaks, lunch breaks, 11 and 11:30.

Mr. LIEBELER. Did Oswald eat lunch with anybody? Do you remember?

Mr. LE BLANC. Not that I know of. He had never eaten with me, I know.

Mr. LIEBELER. Where do you usually have lunch?

Mr. LE BLANC. Well, myself, I bring mine; but most of them that don't

bring their lunch, they usually go down to the corner restaurant.

Mr. LIEBELER. Did Oswald bring his lunch, or did he eat in the

restaurant?

Mr. LE BLANC. Well, no; I think he went down to the corner restaurant a

lot of times.

Mr. LIEBELER. Is that Martin's Restaurant?

Mr. LE BLANC. Martin's; yes, sir.

Mr. LIEBELER. Do you have any idea what he used to have for lunch?

Mr. LE BLANC. No, sir; I don't.

Mr. LIEBELER. Do you have any idea how much he spent for his lunch?

Mr. LE BLANC. No, sir.

Mr. LIEBELER. What kind of a place is Martin's, a pretty inexpensive

place or----

Mr. LE BLANC. It is a reasonable place for regular factory--most all

the factory workers around there eat there. It is pretty reasonable.

Mr. LIEBELER. Did you ever form any opinion of Oswald? You mentioned

that you thought he was probably a little bit of a crackpot or somewhat

of a crackpot for playing this game with his fingers like he was

shooting a gun, but just generally what did you think of this guy?

Mr. LE BLANC. I just--I used to always think--I didn't know whether

he was right or whether he had troubles on his mind or what. I mean,

I couldn't actually figure what was actually wrong with him, because,

I mean, we would go on break and sit on the driveway on the bench.

Usually among the maintenance--we always usually a lot of times sit

together and we would talk over the job or something, but he would sit

on the bench, and he looked like he would be staring into space, and

sometimes you would think he was looking right at you, and if you would

happen to go to say something, he wouldn't answer you. Looked like that

is how far his mind was.

Mr. LIEBELER. He seemed to be thinking about something else?

Mr. LE BLANC. Yes; and looked like his mind was far away at all times.

Mr. LIEBELER. There weren't any of the men there that, as far as you

knew, he ever really talked to----

Mr. LE BLANC. No.

Mr. LIEBELER. Or anyone he ever opened up to in anyway?

Mr. LE BLANC. No.

Mr. LIEBELER. Did you talk about Oswald with the men over there since

the assassination?

Mr. LE BLANC. What is that?

Mr. LIEBELER. Have you talked about Oswald with the other maintenance

men or the other men at the plant?

Mr. LE BLANC. No; I tell you, we hadn't talked very much, because we

just--we left things as was.

Mr. LIEBELER. You never had any conversations with anybody that you can

remember, speculating as to whether Oswald really did this or whether

he was capable of it, he was that kind of a guy?

Mr. LE BLANC. Well, the most talk was around the plant a lot of times,

that they thought he was actually too stupid to actually pull something

like that. They didn't think he even had enough brains to pull a

foolish thing like that, because that is just the kind of a person he

looked to be.
