Page 6 THE BATTALION THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1975 Rockefeller Commission to view Kennedy films Conspiracy evidence brought to CIA prob WASHINGTON (AP) — Come dian Dick Gregory gave the Rock efeller Commission what he claimed Tuesday was new evidence that President John F. Kennedy was the victim of a CIA assassination plot. Gregory’s claim was based on amateur moving picture film of the assassination and on a newspaper photograph made soon afterward. Both have been examined previ ously by the Warren Commission, which conducted the official gov ernment investigation of Kennedy’s death, and other investigators. A spokesman for the Rockefeller Commission, created by President Ford to investigate allegations of domestic spying by the CIA, said “we will consider every bit” of evi dence presented by Gregory and two associates. Robert Groden, 29, who iden tified himself as a “photographer and photo optical specialist” work ing with Gregory, showed the mov ing picture film at a news confer ence. Ralph Schoenman, also a Gregory associate, displayed a still photograph which he said showed convicted Watergate conspirators E. Howard Hunt and Frank Sturgis at the scene of the assassination. The moving picture consisted of film made by Abraham Zapruder as Kennedy was shot while his motor cade passed by the Texas School Book Depository in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963, with some footage splices in some film Groden said was made by another amateur, Orvillw Fixon. The Zapruder film shows Ken nedy clutching at his throat and be ginning to lean forward after he is first hit, when suddenly the right side of his head explodes and he rocks violently backward and to the right. Groden said this clearly shows that Kennedy was killed by a shot from the front and not from the School Book Depository to the rear, as concluded by the Warren Com mission. This argument has been made by critics of the Warren Commission report since it first ap peared. Groden also said the movie film showed a rifleman hiding in a clump of trees and another man pointing a rifle from a grassy knoll near where Zapruder was standing. Other critics in the past have made the same argument in con tending that Lee Harvey Oswald, identified by the Warren Commis sion as the sole assassin, did not act alone. Frames purportedly showing men in blow-ups from the movie film were indistinct and reporters at Gregory’s news conference — as in the past — could not tell whether the film showed hidden men or shadowy effects caused by leaves and poor lighting in the jumpy amateur film. The Warren Commission ex amined the original film. Time magazine owns the original Zap ruder film and has never shown it publicly. Groden declined to say where he obtained a copy. Schoenman said the still showed Huntand Sturgis incus w'ith a third man shortly aSe; assassination. He said the third: is a "dead ringer for an FBIsb | of a man wanted in the sla;i« Martin Luther King. Schoenman said the men heir tilled as Hunt and Sturgis were operatives and were disguisi) tramps. <© BIBLE CLASS 9:30 a m.

Main Hubert Beck, Pastor UNIVERSITY LUTHERAN CHAPEL Municipal League urges ^ utility regulating agency Warrant issued for Carmichai and ten car corporation officii AUSTIN, Tex. (AP) — Directors of the Texas Municipal League ap proved Wednesday a strong state ment urging the legislature to create a new state agency to help local officials in regulating utility companies. Bill Neu, Denton mayor, said the six-point package was adopted unanimously by the directors. Neu said most details of the TML prop osals have already been drafted and a final bill is almost completed. Highlights of the TML proposals included: —Complete rewriting of all laws presently governing local gas, elec tric, telephone and other non government utility rates. “A new straightforward statute needs to be written which puts local officials, individual consumers and utility companies on notice as to ex actly what constitutes fair and reasonable’ utility rates.” —Uniform reporting require ments for all utility companies are regulated by local government. — “It is imperative that the Texas Legislature approve the creation of a state agency staffed by utility ex perts to assist local officials with their utility regulation duties.” —Explore the feasibility of county government regulation of public utility services and rates in unincorporated areas. —Regulation of intrastate long distance telephone rates. “It would be more practical to place this duty in an existing state organization, such as the railroad commission or the attorney general’s office.” —Establish a state level agency with jurisdiction to handle appeals over all local utility rate matters. “The new state level agency, com posed of nine members appointed by the governor, would provide a forum for any contested rate case by any party-local government, the consumer, and utility companies.” WANT AD RATES One day 10c per word Minimum charge—$1.00 Classified Display $1.50 per column inch each insertion DEADLINE 3 p.m. day before publication BATTALION CLASSIFIED Greatest “SAIL” We Have Had!

Researchers trying for better limbs Bioengineers at Texas A&M Uni versity are working with their medi cal colleagues at Baylor College of Medicine and the Texas Institute for Rehabilitation and Research to de vise better health care techniques including new ways of attaching arti ficial limbs. Present emphasis is on prosthetic studies of how direct skeletal at tachment of artificial limbs (DSA) may be achieved. With this method, a bio-compatible leg sys tem will surgically be attached to an amputee’s stump. Once the entire process has been developed and proven functional by experimental animal surgery, individuals now using removable prostheses can have more normal function. named some officers of the coqxj ra tion. Twentieth Century Motor Car Corp. moved here from Encino, Calif, announcing that it intended to start production of its three-wheel Revette by the middle of the year. It claimed the auto can give 70 miles per gallon of gas and is made of a new plastic material that withstands crashes of up to 30 miles per hour without damage. The company moved here shortly after it was enjoined in California by the State Department of Corpora tions from selling stock in the firm to the public. The state agency said the firm did not have enough capital to back up investments. A spokesman for the District Attorney’s office said the charges against the corporation's directors were filed in the court of Justice of the Peace Robert Cole who set indi vidual bonds at $25,000. Ten offic ers of the corporation, along with Mrs. Carmichael, were named in the arrest warrants.
