For games and contests of skill.
:43:06
Oh, dear God.
:43:09
What is it? What happened?
:43:13
The President's been shot!
:43:16
The President's been shot!
:43:20
Benny, turn that off!
:43:27
Governor Connelly
was struck in the chest.

:43:30
Unconfirmed reports say the President
was hit in the head.

:43:34
That's an unconfirmed report.
:43:35
The President's wife was not hurt.
:43:39
She entered the hospital
at Kennedy's side.

:43:43
A newsman said he was riding behind
the President in the parade.

:43:47
After the shots were fired,
:43:49
he looked up at the 6th floor
of the Texas Book Depository.

:43:53
He saw the rifle pulled back in.

:43:57
Please God, I want to talk to my father

:44:22
He slumped down.
:44:23
His wife reached up toward him.
:44:25
He was slumping down
:44:27
and the second shot went off
and knocked him down.

:44:31
Two shots?
:44:32
Did you see who...
:44:33
I did not see the man who did it.
:44:34
I'm sorry.
:44:38
I can't help more, but I won't forget.
:44:42
Here is a flash

Dateline: Dallas.
:44:46
Two priests who were
with the President say

:44:49
he is dead of bullet wounds.
:44:50
There is no confirmation.
:44:52
This is what we have on a flash basis
