DALLAS tAPi—Jack Ruby was quoted by a police officer Wednesday as saying within a minute after he shot Lee Har- vey Oswald: ''I hope the son- of-a-bitch dies.“

The testimony came from Dallas Police Officer J. R. Le- aveilc. a state witness at the trial of Ruby for his life in last November's slaying of Oswald, accused presidential assassin.

Leavelle was the man in the light suit and Texas-style hat whom viewers saw on televi- sion at the instant Oswald was slain. The officer‘: left wrist handcuffed to Oswald‘: right wrist.

Leavelle said the 52-year-old Ruby look about two quick steps from a crowd of specia- tors Nov. 24 and out a single bullet into’ Oswald’: abdomen. _ immediately after the shout- lflit. u y was overwhelmed and driven to the floor by no- ltcemen.

‘WHAT ARE THE FACTS?‘

"What are the facts as to whether he was still trying to null the trigger?" Leavelle was asked.

"The right hand was still con- "actlntz on t gun as though it! “_/_as trying‘ to tire another shot. the witness replied.

The trial began Feb. 17. Thei first testimony was heard Wed- nesday after Ruby entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity.

Early state testimony sug- gested Ruby may have been on Oswald's trail some 20 hours "before he actually shot him to death.

PLACED NEAR JAIL

Two state witnesses placed Ruby outside the Dallas County Jail when a crowd gathered in imid-afternoon of Nov, 23 in an- ticipation of Oswald's transfer there from police headquarters. The actual transfer. however. did not take place ttntll the next da

Another witness Wes Wise. a‘ reporter for radio andi television in Dallas. told of see-l ing Ruby in the vicinity of the county jail the afternoon after Kennedy‘: assassination. Wise said he discussed with Ruby the fact that two small west- ern saddles. intended as gifts’- for the Kennedy children. were left behind in Dallas after the. i assassination.

"i mentioned taking pictures of them and I saw tears in his » eyes." Wise added. 1
