Mrs. OSWALD. **I don't know the reason.
Senator RUSSELL. They just overlooked that?
Mrs. OSWALD. **It was just overlooked--the same way they overlooked
that other.
Senator RUSSELL. Mrs. Oswald, what are your relations now with the
friends that you made in the Russian community here in Dallas? I
don't remember all of the names--one of them was named Elena Hall,
is that right, and Katya Ford, Anna Meller, De Mohrenschildt, De
Mohrenschildt's wife and children--are you still on friendly terms with
them, do you see them occasionally?*
*Mrs. OSWALD. As far as I'm concerned, I consider all of them as my
friends, but George Bouhe, and Katya Ford are the only two people that
come to visit me. Others perhaps feel that it is not healthy for them
to come to see me.
Senator RUSSELL. I wondered if they had expressed their opinion or
whether they were afraid of you on account of publicity contamination?*
*Mrs. OSWALD. No, they never said that to me personally that they are
afraid to come to see me. When we meet in the church, they are all very
pleasant to me, but they never invite me.
Mr. GOPADZE. No.
**Mrs. OSWALD. Sometimes they invite Katya Ford, but they never invite
me. Nataska Krassovska is very nice to me.
Senator RUSSELL. When was the first time you ever heard of Jack Ruby or
Jack Rubenstein?*
Mrs. OSWALD. When he killed him.
Senator RUSSELL. You had never heard of him until that time?
