Dark top + lighter scarf + much lighter skirt + sleeveless. Body shape also!

He said she came running up to the steps and they had an exchange---------

Mr. BALL - When Gloria came up and said the President had been shot, Gloria Calvary, what did you do?
Mr. LOVELADY - Well, I asked who told her.


What we see in Darnell matches that description (with the exception of one thing: Mr Shelley was not there!). Why would we expect Mr Lovelady to describe Ms Calvery's further actions? They were irrelevant to his testimony.

She may simply be misremembering. Have any other credible candidates for Ms. Westbrook & Ms. Calvery from farther down the street been found?

 Thumb1:

In the Sixth Floor Museum's oral history interview she seemed pretty certain.

There is no “small sound-dampening enclosure over the 2nd floor lunch room door opening”. Nor have you ever shown these blueprints that say “vestibule”.

Iacoletti,

Why would the word "vestibule" have to be on the plans in order for somebody with a superior vocabulary to call it that?

How would you describe that strange little area in fifty-words-or-less?

"Alcove"?

"Niche"?

"Galoshes-Storing-Area"?

[fill in the blank]

In the Sixth Floor Museum's oral history interview she [Karen Westbrook] seemed pretty certain [that she was the blue-headscarf-wearing gal by the Stemmons sign in Zapruder].

Yes, except she was less certain about the identity of the black-haired gal (self-described American Indian Stella Mae Jacob, whose dark complexion can be discerned in Z-60, etc) standing two people to the left of her, wasn't she?

It's a pitty that Gloria Holt had strawberry-blond hair that shone so reddish (in that late November light?) in Zapruder, and that the gal next to the sign (Sharon Simmons) was wearing a medium-blue headscarf, just a little bit darker than Westbrook's own light-blue one.

And her and her three colleagues statements to the FBI suggest that they walked to their motorcade-viewing site together, and that they watched the motorcade together, so ... hmm ... where's uhh ... probably Karan Hicks ... or definitely Carol Reed, in that case?

Well, Mitch, although I scored in the 98th percentile in "Verbal Intelligence" in one of my college board exams (the SAT -- do you have that sort of thing in Merry Old England, old chap?) back in 1966, I hadn't thought of that one, and probably never would have without your mentioning it.

Wot?

Good one Old Boy!

Carry on!

Yes, interesting. In the image of the witnesses I couldn't see another light blue scarf, where in that line up is Westbrook? Hope you don't mind me asking. Could probably find it somewhere for myself ......
