Twenty-five years later, the
fascination with John F. Ken
nedy’s death still exists. This
infatuation lingers not only be-
cause of the charisma the Ken-
nedy’s brought to the White
House, but also because of the
relentless, haunting questions
about that day in Dallas.
Dr. Carl Oglesby, who has in-
vestigated the Kennedy assassina-
tion for more than 15 years, visit-
ed Texas Wesleyan last Thursday
with his “Who Killed JFK?" pre-
sentation. Oglesby questioned the
lone assassin theory put forth by
the Warren Commission in 1964,
answering with surprising evi-
dence to disprove it: missing re-
cords, photo tampering, mob
links and suspicious deaths of
witnesses.
In 1972, Oglesby formed the
Assassination Investigation Bu-
reau which was instrumental in
forcing Congress to reopen the
case in 1976 Not much evolved
from the ensuing investigation
and the Kennedy file was official-
ly closed last year. For Oglesby
and others, however, the case
will not be closed until the truth
is found.
To Oglesby the case seemed too
clean cut, when photos and other
evidence not considered in the
Warren report were studied much
closer. The famous Zapruder
film shows a surprisingly differ-
ent angle from where the Presi-
dent was shot. Also, the number
of shots taken and their timings
don’t match up with the lone
assassination theory. Too many
witnesses claim the shots were
fired from the grassy knoll, not
the school book depository, but
their cries were not heard except
by the wrong people. Several wit-
nesses died mysteriously before
they could talk.
Records of Oswald's police in-
terrogation are nowhere to be
found and neither are the records
of the "three tramps" found just
minutes after the shooting in a
freight car behind the grassy
knoll.
Oswald's killer. Jack Ruby, a
former gofer for A1 Capone,
died in jail before he could tell
his story. He had pleaded with
officials to go to Washington be-
cause he knew too much and
would surely die if he were to
stay here.
Other evidence links Kennedy
to the mafia during the 1960
election and several attempts on
Cuban leader Fidel Castro’s life.
Oglesby presents the possibility
that the mob became disenchant-
ed with Kennedy and took his
life.

"Truth is our authority — authority is not our truth"

Lady Rams take loss;
may get playoff bid
by Stan M. Wood
The fate of the TWC Spikers
depends on a phone call. Their
fate was taken out of their hands
when they lost to Southwestern
at Southwestern Saturday.
Last Thursday, the Lady Rams
got revenge against the Univer-
sity of Mary-Hardin Baylor, de-
feating them in three games in
round one of the playoffs.
In each game, the Lady Rams
found themselves behind the
Crusaders. In game one, the
UMHB squad jumped to an 8-2
lead but couldn't put the Spikers
away. The scores were 15-11, 15-
13 and 15-8.
“We probably had the jitters,”
said Coach Becky Hughes on the
leads obtained by UMHB. "Their
team came at us. They were do-
ing some different things and we
had to open our eyes.”
“We had miscommunication,"
sophomore Stephanie McLaughlin
said. "We’d have some trouble
right at the start. We would spot
them some points and then come
back.”
Senior Ginger Klopfensteln
said, “We weren’t beat. They
had some good shots and we
came back. The whole week we’ve
been going through mental pep
talks.”
McLaughlin said, “The pres-
sure eased off in the last game.
We relaxed and things started to
happen. We played well to-
gether.”
“They did it all themselves,”
Hughes added. “Each one of
