Then went outside to watch P. parade ( Parts 1 & 2 )

Friends, in the interests of linguistic felicity, I move that this man in the doorway lose the cumbersome title 'Reddish Shirt Man' and instead be referred to henceforward as Coca-Cola Man



Alternatively, of course, we could just call him by his real name: Mr. Lee Harvey Oswald.

 

[Zeon Mason]

So if Oswald / Red shirt Man in Hughes film did NOT move from the west wall  then the reddish blob to the east and down in front of  steps which is the flapping/ moving anomaly ( in Towner film)  is too far from Oswald/Cokeman, to be a flag being unfurled (imo).

Then there is still the problem where Oswald is in Wiegman film.

If Oswald did not move after Hughes film, or in Towner film, then he cannot be prayerwoman (PW) nor close enough to Lovelady to be the reason for shadow anomaly of Lovelady in Weigman film.

Also, since there are 2 different type cameras capturing PW from  different perspectives distances, and time, there is to be expected some variation in measuring distance in each film frame of PW body/ elbow relative to wall/ column etc.

If the Babuska lady (Beverly Oliver)  film disappeared entirely ( allegedly confiscated) then it’s not that implausible to suggest that maybe Towner film was altered in some way also, just like Weigman and Altgens.

I've already addressed these points, Mr. Mason

Not even a super-high-speed westwards kangaroo hop across the fourth step could bring Reddish Shirt Man over to the Lovelady spot in time.

Mr. Lovelady simply cannot be Reddish Shirt Man.

The FULL Bell doorway footage is, more even than I had realized, an utter calamity for the eccentric chapter of Team Keep LHO Off Them Steps known as Team Make Coca-Cola Man into Lovelady:



Look how early we get our VERY first glimpse of Mr. Lovelady's shirt. Note where Mrs. Kennedy is at this time:



At this VERY SAME time, Coca-Cola Man is STILL just where he was in Hughes: over behind the black man who is standing by the white west column:



We are no longer talking of a tiny window of time in which Coca-Cola Man can move over and be the Mr. Lovelady we see in Bell. No, we are talking ZERO TIME, for we are talking simultaneity. Mr. Lovelady and Coca-Cola Man are, at this given moment, in two different places.

Mr. Lovelady is not visible in Hughes because he is standing not far from the center railing, and is thus blocked from Hughes' view by young Ms. Toni Glover.
When the foliage clears in Bell, we see him still standing there, leaning over to his right and then returning to normal standing posture.

There is simply no logistical way to salvage the claim that Coca-Cola Man is Mr. Lovelady

Rethink Time For Ford?

Is this man waving a small flag?

It would be nice to explain the waving object in Towner which appears to be in the doorway as in fact being something waved by this man, or by the woman in black behind him:



But I honestly have serious doubts. While a noticeable object does appear to flutter over/behind the man's head in the later frames here, during those frames which sync up with Towner the noticeable object appears to our view too far right (east) to account for what Towner is showing:



Furthermore, the WHITE and BLUE we see behind the foliage but in front of Mr. Lovelady in Bell remain weird and unaccounted for:



I still think this may be a flag of some description being waved by Coca-Cola Man (a.k.a. Mr. Oswald)

 

[Alan Ford]

I also continue to believe that

A) this is CE142 (the long paper sack Mr. Oswald will be falsely accused of having used to bring a rifle with him to work this morning), and that Mr. Oswald has just dumped it by the two mailboxes



B) Officer Marrion L. Baker is racing over to the lady who is holding it up



Perhaps someone has a better suggestion as to what she's holding, and why the motorcycle officer's path is heading straight her way?

There is  “something”  in Towner film causing JFK to turn his head 90 degrees looking at the front entrance area.

Since JFK had  to take drugs and wear  a back brace, because  of back pain caused by  a rare peculiar  spinal deformity , to turn his head that sharply suggests that the “something” was more than just the clapping hands of nearby people.

Something like a fabric banner sign with a provocative word like “Traitor” unfurled and held open by the use of 2 curtain rods , and moved back and forth couldsurely have came get JFK s attention

The paper bag , banner and rods then discarded near the traffic barrier where the woman then picked  up the bag and was signaling to Baker?

Seems quite a
