It is highly unlikely, and given the *multiple* witnesses that saw LHO enter an automobile, it is apparent that the WC's claim that he took a cab and bus to the roominghouse is false and sunk.

Imo, the whole McWatters episode is with some other man, and somebody convinced McWatters that if must have been Oswald, when the "ticket" was presented with a punch mark. (but no fingerprints of either Oswald or McWatters!?)

They wanted to make it seem as though Oswald was "in a hurry" and anxious, impatient, desperate to return to his boarding ASAP.

But Whaley contradicts that narrative, by having observed that Oswald just appeared to be walking normally and even offered the cab to a woman 1st.

Rob.....Have you forgot that a woman exited Mc Watter's bus and she received a transfer.....  What happened to that transfer??   Do we know that she didn't give the transfer to the FBI?   We know that passengers getting on the train were screened because the FBI grabbed Robert Croft at Denver when he arrived there from Dallas.

Interesting question.  Don't know if she actually used her transfer or not, but it would have been interesting to compare it with the one they allegedly found in Oswald's pocket hours after his arrest.  Did it have McWatters' "distinctive" punch mark on it?  What if CE 381 was her bus transfer?

McWatters initially said that it was LHO, but quickly recanted. He wouldn't identify LHO as the man on his bus before the WC.

It is an interesting question. Also, Mcwatters said he gave a transfer to a man as well and since LHO was not on his bus we have to wonder who this was. We know it wasn't Milton Jones because of this.

Mr. BALL - Were you later called down to the--did the teenage boy ask for any transfer?

Mr. McWATTERS - No, sir.

 What if CE 381 was her bus transfer?

That was what I was hinting....

Can you prove that Bledsoe knew LHO by sight? Otherwise her word is worthless.

Bledsoe said Oswald got on the bus looking like a maniac but not one other person someone that looked like a maniac. She also described Oswalds shirt as being in a condition it wasnt in until after his arrest.

A read of McWatters testimony suggests he thought it was the young lad and not Oswald.
